Can’t skip the update if you don’t have any Windows installations.

I didn’t like Twitter enough to join it when it didn’t cost $20.

I hope this means that Shitter is starting to be in some trouble.

None. I was never invested in it very heavily. I had one channel that I was a pretty involved member on but the whole “you don’t have to tell them how old you are, they’re going to use an algorithm and your usage patterns to deduce it,” I was just haha no, fuck that, and I quit.

Stop using Windows. Stop using Discord.

Yep. On it almost a year now, ever since 10 was EOL’d and I learned Discord was building a profile on every user based on usage.

Linux has been awesome and Discord mostly sucked anyway.

Probably better to be able to just hide your plate at will.

Except insurance has basically decided it doesn’t need to actually pay for the most part.

These review services should create a score based on your reviews that you have to maintain. In a 5-star system, that would be a 3. If the sum of all the stars you have awarded divided by the number of reviews you have published falls below 3, then you can only submit reviews that will bring that score up, until it is back to 3, then you can do whatever you want again. This will encourage users to think more carefully about shit they use that they like as much as shit the use that they don’t like and that works better for everybody.

Say what again! I dare you. I double dare you motherfucker, say what one more goddamn time!

Sure, although I would phrase it I think a bit more pointedly: “it has become impossible to tell managers mesmerized by artificial intelligence that the tools are not, in fact, capable of what they imagine they are capable of.”

This points, rightly, at it being a failure on the part of the managers - not artificial intelligence. And God knows that’s spot fucking on.

It has become impossible to tell managers mesmerised by artificial intelligence that the tools are not, in fact, helpful.

This is stupid. The tools are helpful. Overhyped? Sure. But to pretend they are in no way helpful is just wrong.
