I am the alpha and omega 
The openai bot makes over 400 requests on my website a day and it should be smarter…but it looks like they keep it in that old version on purpose (while they were still training it) and they didn’t allow it to use the new data in certain questions because as far as I can see it gives the answers that I got and others that were mentioned in the 10k topic.
That’s why the MS version (copilot) is much smarter

Only on some occasions!

“oxy” is too broad a term…I’m surprised he didn’t list the drug first.
I also got excited too early when discourse introduced a grid for images last year (I don’t remember exactly - it was a long time ago), but unfortunately it eats up a good part of the image so there’s no point in using it…

My girlfriend and I keep arguing, last night she threw a lettuce at me, that’s just the tip of the iceberg

I never understood the mobile view.
The icons represent “Last Poster”, but the first thing my brain thinks is “Original Poster”.
It’s odd.

Man I love KDE…
Here’s a glitch effect I installed for opening/closing windows. I wish Windows was cool like that

I just purchased a Singapore server so that the docker issue is solved.
Time to test out discourse 
My mind is blowing up right now
Discourse is so complex

I do not want to hold any political stance but I can see that the future will look very bad from now on…

By the way, I want to know what factors do I need to consider in order to use AES-256 encryption algorithm in PHP on a particular Infinityfree hosting account. I think it’s possible to use through openssl_encrypt() function. But I am not sure how fast will it likely run.
Let us assume that the frequency of encryption and/or decryption is likely high. I wonder how much data can be processed in Infinityfree servers before the suspension system triggers. In that way, I can estimate the total amount of encryption/decryption processes needed for each visitor and for nth megabytes of data in the server-side while preventing instant suspensions to happen.
I want to conduct own experiments and tests on my hosting account. However, it seems impractical. And conducting experiments on local machine isn’t good either — the results from it may not reflect the results in real-world, unless a proper emulation of the Infinityfree’s environment in local machine is achieved. I want to know if others have experiences and prior knowledge on this matter.

My first recommendation would be to avoid working with OpenSSL directly. The mantra for writing encryption code is “don’t roll your own crypto”. OpenSSL is very powerful, but also has a LOT of different options and features. And when you implement those incorrectly, your encryption will not be secure.
I (thankfully) never had to write my own encryption code. But from what I’ve head, the libsodium module is a lot simpler to use. And “simpler” in this case means “fewer ways you can shoot yourself in the foot”.
As for performance, I wouldn’t worry about that. Remember that every HTTPS request involves a lot of encryption and decryption, including AES. So whatever you’re doing in your code is probably a drop in the bucket by comparison. And both openssl and libsodium do all the encryption in the PHP extension code, which is very efficient.

But would it be bad for CPU usage? What if I hit the limit easily?

This is what I feel after fiddling with Discourse:
Flarum feels like Linux, Arch Linux to be exacflt. Only the bare minimum is provided, and lots of package installations and manual configurations is required.
Discourse, on the other hand, feels like Windows. Everything is shipped in a multi-gigabytes package. There’s literarily an OOBE after installation, and usually it will just work after that. But it does mean that it’ll be bloated.
