Apt typo. In French vide means empty, but also void. Void coding. Nice.

You bet! Happy extracting.

Vampliers is one brand, but "screw extractor pliers" should come up with something.

Yeah, I repair pinball and arcade machines part time, including many vintage ones, and sometimes, that's exactly the right tool.

Honestly, probably the best case scenario given the options. I'm glad you will continue to exist!

And you clearly eat it.

It's fancy autocomplete, plagiarism washing. It looks for words that look like your prompt. It's thought-shaped sentences it has seen before. Is typing in a search bar "writing?"

An LLM has only the thoughts of others. You could ask it to organize your own thoughts, but it orders information according to an unknown process, which cannot be defined as creative. You might get to edit this mess, but you're not writing per se.

Completely obtuse definition of "writing." You know they mean the author's process of organizing their own thoughts and not, like, pencil vs keyboard. ffs

Aching for a triple bypass.

Well, things can always go sideways for us too--pendulum swings and whatnot--but you take the good days where you can get them. Sure thing. Same to you!

Greetings from Montréal! Things are pretty chill at the moment. I'm certainly glad to be out of the US these days for...reasons... (used to live in Seattle and southern California). Not sure the Canadian gaming industry is in any better state, though. Hope you find work soon, man. Your art is dope.

I don't even think it was 100% correct for the other model whose instructions it clearly WAS referring to. When I think of the absolute waste of resources used in being so confidently wrong...

It's so dumb. Just today I was searching for how to do a non-obvious thing with an audio interface. The shite Google AI summary (wasn't using it on purpose, but there it was nonetheless) confidently answered with a reference to a button combo that didn't work, and another button which did not exist.

Wow, that's dark. I'm fairly sure AG was how I found your games, in fact. RIP to a real one.

this is such a good representation of American Christianity

I saw this when I was, like, 12, and it kind of traumatized me, to be honest.

Saaaaaaame. Who knew opening and closing a thing thousands of times would eventually wear it out? I have procured baking soda but my super glue has dried out, so waiting on that (a plastic bit that holds an important screw broke and that combo makes a surprisingly good fix, if you're wondering).

Indeed. I just went grocery shopping and bought not a single product made in the U.S (I live in Canada). Food is required spending, but you can make choices there too.
