what have I won?

it’s still a market, and “free” is still a price point

Dude Socrates was convinced that reading and writing would ruin everyone’s memory who grew up with it. Whining about <innovation> somehow handicapping the next generation by making them “too dependent on technology” or whatever and couching it in reasonable-sounding terms is as old as language, and time always makes fools of those who indulge in that sort of masturbatory delusion. You’re just jealous we had cooler toys, own it.

edit: replied to wrong user

who the hell calls rugby “rugger”? that’s even worse than “soccer”.

1. This is foosball.

2. The sport with the egg is “gridiron football”, we call it “football” for short for the same reason other countries call association football “football” for short, it’s the most popular variant here.

3. We don’t call it “American football” because that’s not what it’s called, you lot say that because of point 2. Nobody is going to say “European football” because that’s not what it’s called either.

4. The word “soccer” was imported from the UK (seriously that word is british as hell, you really think we came up with that shit?), and we use it for reasons outlined in points 2 and 3, and also because “european football” is inaccurate, tiresome, and stupid sounding.

5. This is the first and only time I’ve ever heard of rugby union football being referred to as “ruggers”, I never thought I’d read a dumber-sounding word than soccer but you’re just full of surprises today. For some reason i was imagining one of the replies was the same person, this was in error.

how is reactos these days? is it a drop-in replacement for windblows yet?

hello, are you me? i love my kobo clara but hot damn i miss that sony ebook.

“paying people who create value for your company is too complicated to worry about” is a weird justification

meanwhile i asked it to write a short simple hello world in a scripting language designed for children, and it spat out nothing but garbage. one of us is leaning on confirmation bias.

thats like saying theyre wrong because words are spelled correctly yes the number is correct but the machine doesnt know what the hell it is, or what it’s for, or in any sense “understand” what it’s regurgitating to the user as evidenced by the fact that it listed it twice. “AI” doesn’t know anything, it just copy-pastes shit.
