Inquisition felt like it was at some point supposed to be a MMO. The zone and quest design felt very MMO-like. I couldn't make myself play through that game.

But that's the whole point. It's a gimick. Just like half the features on the cybertruck, which either don't work in reality or make little to no sense.

It was all personal use, just me, doing stuff for my business, I have no employees.

If it's for your business, it's not personal...

I think the biggest difference is that children don't have mental barriers about those things. They just explore and learn, without any thoughts wasted about the usefulness, pressure or excuses not to learn.

I switched to linux a year ago and in that year had less problems than on Windows.

I had some minor problems after updates once or twice. On Windows i had to boot into restore mode multiple times due to Windows Update screwing something up.

The MS Store also constantly had trouble updating apps and games and i had to manage packages manually and uninstall and reinstall them so it would work again until the next update.

The times were Windows is easy to use and fire and forget are long gone. The decline in quality is noticeable.

The reason it's free is not because they want you to have it for free. It's heavily subsidized limited trial period. The limits are still generous enough to be useful, but that might change when the need for profit gets bigger.

It has all the signs of LLM-generated text.

The problem is that it's too expensive. It can technically do parts of my job for me, but at a variable cost that's higher than mine right now.

On World 6-3, if i use i.e. d3j to delete the 3 lines it deletes the current line + the 3 below. Vim generally treats commands like that as "do this X times including the current line", so it should delete the current line and the 2 lines below.

I think the reason to use and teach those keys first, is that they can be used in all the motions aswell. The arrow keys can´t and thus do not really make much sense in a vi context.

But those are obvious errors. What if the AI tells you to up your intake of X and it seems plausible? So you up your intake of X by taking some supplement, but upping the intake of X makes your body deplete more of Y and now you have a new or compounding problem.

A doctor might have never recommended upping X, because they would know what it does to your body. Or they might have suggested additional supplementation to avoid this.

The fact that LLMs are trained on all public knowledge is a huge red flag, because there are more wrong infos out there than right ones. Especially about health, diet, etc.

But for obvious cases like this, you don't need a second or first opinion.

This case is about handing a 3D imaging result to a text predictor and hoping for a valid second opinion.

Nightmare because the AI is just generating a random text that fits the question.

Gamepass was never popular enough to justify the expenses and investments on the level they did.

They just thought growth will forever be exponential until they have a billion subscribers.
