Is that the infamous Y2K problem?
It is, but in reverse.
I hate apps that are basically just a form but they try to force a chat interface onto you.
Chase business and credit card accounts : oh you want to access your account from a device you have not used OR while using a VPN?
Give us all the information from your account and social security number to connect you to a guy who will ask the same things to give you a code. Absolute embarrassment of an operational process.
My state’s DMV switched their online services to this. Want to change your address? You must talk to the chatbot. Renewing your license? Tell the chatbot your credit card information. And for this convenience you also get to pay a fee to the third-party company that operates the service for the state.
I know North Carolina does this at the very least. I hate it
We need to make it illegal to force people to use a chatbot. It’s just a way to create the most frustrating experience possible without even having to pay an Indian call center. It’s the new version of being put on hold for an hour and then getting transferred and put on hold for another hour, someone you can barely understand picking up the phone, and then hanging up on you after you explain what you want and making you call again.
The privatisation experiment continues
id.me has joined the chat
You’re giving me id.me flashbacks
I submitted too soon. It gets better.
Clown show.
“this bot is so stupid” says man who thinks 2000 is greater than 2000
I thought that was his point. I would have tried it too.
Good point
Just cut your losses and find a different service
LMFAO
I am uniquely qualified to inform you the year 1997 was vastly greater than the year 2000.
“Hahaha, no one in business is that old! Now give us an honest answer.”
This was for valuing domain names, as if registering domain names wasn’t possible before the year 2000.
I highly distrust those fucking Services anyway
I got an email from one of the “legit” ones and decided to follow through with it for the lulz and they’re trynna tell me the domain that matches my username is work almost $2k and that they’ll buy it right now
Like, guys, I could renew my domain for basically my whole life for that cost & I guarantee I’m the only one who’ll ever want it
I did score a domain very similar to freeto.me for my piracy antics, though, that I can believe will be worth some dish eventually
I am once owned skatepark.org and it was indeed valuable as the top search result for “skatepark” with many links to it at the time.
I got it appraised for $14,000 and used the appraisal for a tax deduction when I donated it to a non-profit. From there it got passed on to the Tony Hawk Foundation which continues the original mission of my site to advocate for public skateparks.
Well yeah, Y2K broke all domain names remember?
No. The fallout from all the launched missiles scrambled my thinking sponge.
Everything reset during Y2K and then the dot com crash kicked everyone while they were down.
“I’m so three thousand and eight, you’re so two thousand and late….”
People who think 2000 was a great year…
