Like…?

Or something similar enough to what you wanted that you don’t notice it’s a different thing. That’s awful.

Why even ask the question?

You’re being weird.

Seems I might have triggered theirs too. Maybe better refrain from touching grass too much.

Am I? How so? For calling out someone for a lazy comment? I read the article and even though I don’t agree with everything mentioned, I wouldn’t shrug it off as AI slop.

It’s the software. Definitely. We been making bombs for a while now. They used to toss them out the side of biplanes. Oddly, your second paragraph immediately undermines the first.

> Presumably, the world used dumb munitions without any software for a long time.

What do you think “presumably” is accomplishing here? Are you unsure, but willing to assume for purpose of the discussion, that bombs preceded computers?


Did those dumb bombs tossed out of biplanes lack software because the software was difficult to write or because there was no hardware in the world capable of running software? Given that missile guidance systems predate the very notion of software, and the moment better hardware exists there is software ready to take advantage of it, methinks software was not the hard part.

I promise you, the software is not the hard part.

We've been making PID loops for a lot longer.

New flagship product with lots of features is more expensive than old entry level product purchased used?!

The very first thing on the page is this egregious slop sentence:

> Leave the meeting with a first draft, not a blank page.

I have to imagine the whole thing is this lazy.


You’re responding really inappropriately to someone participating productively in a discussion.


Y’all cowards always implying. Say the thing you think. Just say it. I’ll start: I think getting upset by a pronouns dropdown is literal homophobia, in that y’all are so scared, worried, and bothered by thinking about gay shit that you’re installing software about it.

It’s weak. Y’all are weak.


God forbid you install a mod that modifies a game.


Good news! You're still allowed to install whatever mods you want.

Expecting Nexus to host mods they don't want to host is idiotic.

Hiding the whole complaint behind an implication is cowardice.

Hope that helps.


I see that it changes the menu bar icon to indicate status. How is this communicated when windows are full screen and the menu bar isn’t visible?
