So now you're forced to use Microslop Store to get Python? At the very least they could offer .msix files to download and use.

You didn't answer their question. Asking your own questions isn't an answer.

> AI has become the perfect scapegoat.

I really feel it isn't a 'narrative created by AI Companies' that's responsible for this. First of all, any business touts itself as one that will reduce labor. That's marketing. It existed long before AI Companies, and it is very often exaggerated in its capabilities. We as a society have accepted this as normal. We all accept a loop that goes like this: New Product has marketing that claims it can solve world hunger -> You pay and use the new product, only to find that it cannot deliver on its great promise in whole -> You still end up using and paying for the product because while it doesn't solve world hunger, it at least feeds a few mouths and that's better than nothing.

The true culprit -and one that I personally hold responsible for this outbreak of violence that we are seeing- is Journalism. Every Newspaper for the last 3 entire years has constantly flooded headlines with 'AI is dangerous and will take away your job'. That's because each time they do that more people pay attention out of fear, which increases profit for newspapers. The same goes for TV News, Online News. And this has a trickle-down effect on society where YouTubers, Podcasters, and your local seminar hall has people talking about how insane AI is and how it is the worst thing to happen since Pandora's Box.

We seriously need to change how we as a society interact with news if we are to see this end. We need to stop incentivizing sensational headlines for newspapers that overtime lead to violence. We need regulations in place to prevent content specifically designed to target fear in people's minds. And we need to see this change take place fast.

Which will eventually happen no matter what. That's why it's important to start preparing now.

I was robbed of that safe environment. Gosh... it hurts me to think about what could have been.

Thank you thank you thank you for writing this. This made me smile and feel like shedding a tear. This is exactly how I felt when I watched the Dave2D video of the MacBook Neo, and other "reviews" that miss the entire point. This captures the point. The other reviews capture specs. This captures the emotion. This captures the reality.

Here's my question: What do you mean a zip file can be opened without an application? I looked it up and couldn't find a way.

I'm considering terminal utilities as apps too, btw.

This is a good and important counter-point to the given article. If we as 'tech people' expect the layman to have a higher standard of tech knowledge, then what is to stop people from other fields from telling us to do the same? Truthfully, an average person won't develop expert knowledge of every field.

Call them out, call them out. Why isn't Claude a native Windows x64 app if code is free?

But what is XSLT? Why is it important?

These points should be addressed first on the website.
