In that same vein, give zellij a look! I use it pretty constantly whenever I'm sshing in a nominatim server

That's a tough call, on one hand recruiting (obviously). On the other, we could set up a bot to spam the number to hell and back so they can't get any actual calls

Because an animated 5 second ad telling me to buy more dice and horde them like the goblin I am would work on me!

Just as an interesting "what if" scenario - a human making the effort to stylize Van Gogh is okay, and the problem with the AI model is that it can spit out endless results from endless sources.

What if I made a robot and put the Van Gogh painting AI in it, never releasing in elsewhere. The robot can visualize countless iterations of the piece it wants to make but its only way share it is to actually paint it - much in the same way a human must do the same process.

Does this scenario devalue human effort? Is it an acceptable use of AI? If so does that mean that the underlying issue with AI isn't that it exists in the first place but that its distribution is what makes it devalue humanity?

*This isn't a "gotcha", I just want a little discussion!

Thanks for sharing the extension! I just got some passkeys and they just weren't working on several websites for Firefox (looking at you Azure) but that solved the issue immediately!

Okay, how about a waffle house then?

If you do it publically and explicitly enough, by the third or fourth mouthpiece they should be changing their tune

While the generational diss train is fun and all I think it has more to do with design patterns of the most popular hardware at any given point.

Now at this current state, unless you're seeking out a desktop an individual is going to have most of their "technology time" on a phone which have been overwhelmingly been designed for simplicity and ease of use.

When a barrier for entry and usability is low, it can be used by a wide range of people but that also means that most common operations are going to default to being fairly quick and easy. If the barrier to find "good" information is higher than the barrier for the entry point of the technology you'll find most people settling for what's probably "okay" information (even if that information isn't actually correct)

If you like flutter and know python check out Flet! Based on flutter with python bindings, I've used it a couple of times during work and it was a dream
