And bots. Don’t forget the bots.

Doesn’t every Instagram user automatically have a Threads account now?

To my knowledge, no. They just have a 1-click on-boarding process that you’re constantly harrassed about doing.

Right but turning the VPN off invalidates the purpose of using a VPN. And even if it didn’t, it’s not convenient to disable on both devices and then turn it back on. The whole purpose of this software is convenience.

Unless it was released with the Steam Deck…?

Was it around before the Steam Deck?

I can say this confidently: the most killer features on the Deck originated with the Steam Controller.

I have to strongly disagree. The killer feature is Proton (if you consider that a feature) 😀

QuickShare, AirDrop and LocalSend all use WiFi, which can be a problem when using a VPN (it is for me).

The “internet drama” exists because the product is a reflection of the leadership.

Like I said, Briar is better

Briar is the much better and much more mature version of this.

messaging app that works over Bluetooth mesh networks. No internet

So he’s made a shitty version of Briar and crammed crypto into it?

My dude Packy has never heard of cliff notes.

We’ll never have self-driving cars en masse, because for some reason society has accepted that humans make mistakes and sometimes people die, but they can’t do the same for robots, even if they make far fewer of them.

That’s not really helping though. The fact that you were transferred to them in the first place instead of directly to a human was an impediment.

And if you “write” me an email using Chat GPT and I just read a summary, what is the fucking point?

Fuuuck, this infuriates me. I wrote that shit for a reason. People already don’t read shit before replying to it and this is making it so much worse.

You can’t:

I don’t have real-time browsing capabilities or access to specific databases to provide a direct source for the information.

The answer it provided me prior to this, I know from actual research, was completely wrong.

commit to Steam Deck and Linux

That is taking a lot of liberties with the wording here.

1. They only committed to not intentionally breaking Proton. They did not “commit” to supporting anything.

2. They didn’t say anything about Linux, specifically.

I called my local HVAC company recently. They switched to an AI operator. All I wanted was to schedule someone to come out and look at my system. It could not schedule an appointment. Like if you can’t perform the simplest of tasks, what are you even doing? Other than acting obnoxiously excited to receive a phone call?

Ah they’re learning from the “unlimited” mobile carriers.

“Unlimited” until you meet your limit, then throttled.

You can load the script into violentmonkey (minus the last line because it kept refreshing the page) and it’s applied automatically that way. You can also submit it to GreasyFork to make it searchable.

Personally I find chat models that don’t provide sources to be completely useless, that’s why I use Perplexity (occasionally).
