    apache Error
AI Thread Summary
The issue of encountering an "Apache software installation on this system was successful" message on various websites is linked to a local server misconfiguration, likely due to the computer attempting to access a local instance of Apache instead of the intended website. This problem is specific to the user's home computer and does not occur on their work computer, suggesting a local network or software issue. Accessing the local address 127.0.0.1 results in a "connection refused" error, indicating that the Apache server is not running or configured correctly on the local machine. The user can still access websites like Physics Forums through search engines, which suggests that the problem is not with the internet connection itself but rather with how the browser is resolving certain URLs. The user confirms they are connected to their home network exclusively, ruling out issues with connecting to an unauthorized network.

what happens if you go to:

Sorry if 'Profile Badge' is not the correct term. I have an MS 365 subscription and I've noticed on my Word documents the small circle with my initials in it is sometimes different in colour document to document (it's the circle at the top right of the doc, that, when you hover over it it tells you you're signed in; if you click on it you get a bit more info). Last night I had four docs with a red circle, one with blue. When I closed the blue and opened it again it was red. Today I have 3...
Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'
I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
