Just buy a $300 outdoor cat bed and stick it up there. He’ll never go on the roof again.

Good game choice, too.

No, no, let 'em cook. The way we’re going we’ll all be deep breath Back in the USSR

That’s actually not why billions of people are using them. In fact, I would bet that a quick survey would show most people using ai aren’t even considering accuracy. But, you could always ask ai and see what it says, I guess…

My initial reaction was it’s not true at my local Mexican tavern, but then I remembered Crackerbarrel is almost always on the left and I don’t think it can get more white than a barrel full of crackers.

100% agree. I regularly use spellcheck and access encyclopedias / dictionaries to doublecheck myself. I think grammarly was a great invention. But, once it went from analyzing voice/tone/mood to fully written block text many people just assumed they didn’t have to learn to write anymore. My humble brag is that I don’t use predictive text on any device. That makes me slower than others to respond. But in my mind it means I have to think about how to articulate just a bit more and, personally, I think I read more closely because of that too.

Same! Already got fed up with google awhile back and turned everything off. Next goal is to completely de-google.

Taught for a while. Last few years students went from turning in plagiarised essays with small enough tweaks to pass detection to full on LLM-written bullshit that they couldn’t even explain when asked. The turning point was when parents started defending their kids submission of AI slop, even when it would begin “As a language learning model,…”

Darn, mine only looked like Morrowind. Guess I’ll get my casket ready…

I give it about 24 months. He’ll get comfortable and make some stupid decision that ruins the money of some rich group and they’ll oust him. It sucks for everyone, but they’re too dumb not to eat themselves.

I heard our glorious leader will be making an upcoming EO mandating all homes be retrofitted with coal-burning stoves.

Oh say can you see

I grew up with some of the first games. Loved Sierra’s library. Played some of the more eclectic games like Battle Beast and Howie’s Great Word Adventure. As far as programs went, I didn’t get much into it until later. But, I do remember using the Microsoft Works Creative Writing Program. That was fun to do designs on.

Ubuntu user here. I get glitches from time to time, and the newest update caused a more than small issue with booting. However, compared to the litany of glitches, bloatware, and user-anti-interface of Windows, I’ll sing the praises of Ubuntu all day long. Even the few games I play, like Cyber Punk, run perfectly.

I second this. I’m into gaming and dev, so I went with the Framework 16 amd got the extender for the graphics card. These are amazing machines and work with linux out of the box. Also modular, which was a requirement for me. Good luck searching!
