I'm so glad that things being hard has never been connected to my self worth. Maybe someday you'll be able to enjoy just playing with technology rather than using it to prove how verysmart you are. Work smarter not harder.

Yep. Fire up a new project, give it the two ROMs and the emulator to use and tell it what you what. I had to guide it a little bit about the sprite size and collison logic, but it was extremely painless.

100% AI I'm sure. I played around with this kind of thing a month or so ago and Codex had no problems mashing games up from just the ROMs. In about 30 minutes I had the contra guys running through SMB 1 shooting enemies.

Yes, it's triage. They do the basic steps, get relevant info, and try to figure out the right team to send it to. This is how support everywhere works.

What do you mean "even get attention from someone"? Enterprise contracts have support included. You can get an engineer on the phone within 24 hours. As long as you are competent enough to answer their questions, their support has been fairly good in my experience.

I just paid $20 for a $15 McDonald's order with the annual subscription. It all depends on the restaurant too. I also haven't gone grocery shopping since 2020.

I literally order from all of those companies as do 10s of millions of people if not more.

You're telling us there are frequent scheduled summary calls to agents that burns tokens like this is common knowledge. Is it? And is this documented somewhere?

Parents want a nice recording of their kids because they've been paying to rent their instruments. This isn't some profound type of artistic expression.

We all seemed fine with machines replacing telephone operators and spreadsheets replacing computers (the people).

I asked multiple different ways and it said Joe Biden every time.

Sure, be less productive, see how that works out for you. Your attitude in 2026 is crazy to me. Maybe you're just using chat, I don't know, but it saves me hours daily and saves my brainpower for situations that truly need it. Work smarter, not harder.

Family. Imagine if the state next to yours was no longer the US.
