Fair travels, Captain Picard.

Winning! I'm tired of all the winning!

Some people like that, and that's fine. But for those people who don't, don't force-default to the "for you" section, default to their preference.

Maybe just RTFA would answer your question:

"It was Bielfeldt’s curiosity about the inner workings of inkjet printers that inspired his winning entry, but capturing the action of ink drops being deposited on paper was a challenge, given that the process happens so quickly. The droplets, for instance, moved faster than the camera’s shutter speed. Bielfeldt’s solution was to deconstruct the printer so that the paper moved under a stationary (rather than moving) printhead, and then take the image in a dark room, using a flash to serve as the shutter, thereby freezing the ink drops mid-air."

Yes, but not for you and me. Graphics designers have been using stylus-displays for years and years, because it's great to draw on the thing you are making instead of drawing on a different surface like a Wacom.

But I'm like you, I don't have a use case for a touchscreen and if you touch my notebook screen I'll be angry because I prefer it without fingerprints, thanks. So my first question is: Do they offer this thing with OLED but without touch? I guess not. Pity.

I've been slowly moving towards my dream setup: Solar panels, battery, EV car, island mode capability. This is one thing that'd be a factor in my buying decision. Using your car as a battery or secondary battery is a big plus, and if they built the necessary equipment to run independent of the power grid, it'd come in a neat package.

While power failures are rare where I live, I expect them to become more common with the move to renewable energies. I support that, but it's more fragile than constantly running power stations. So being able to run your home at least for a few hours on your own energy is something that I consider a good idea.

You will not replace us!!!

But with a little stretching of English grammar, we might replace us.

Nonononono. Build prosperity. Build progress. Build civilization. Build job... Uh, timeout on that one.

Please don't look too closely or ask what any of it means in practice, because we can't have you standing in the way of prosperity and progress.

who will have to review footage of people asking Alexa if the red dot on their penis is a problem, etc

I suspect this is not for people like us (most of us anyway). This is for younger people - people who grew up with iPads and smart phones. I've never wanted a touchscreen laptop, but I have seen lots of young people who don't use computers much try to touch the screen on a computer. It isn't particularly efficient, but it is what a lot of young people expect... not having it introduces a point of friction.

they missed adding the killer feature of being able to fold the screen all the way back to use it like a tablet.

Despite the fact that the current Republican majorities in both houses have abdicated their responsibilities - Congress has the "power of the purse". When Trump's sycophants say "we're not spending this money Congress has allocated", Congress doesn't have to just sit back and say "darn, they've thwarted us again".

Fixing some of the funding shenanigans Trump and his Muppets have been pulling can indeed make things at least somewhat better.

You missed the point.

A friend of mine made a tea-timer app for the iPhone. Where you enter what tea you are making and it sets the correct number of minutes. Today, people would ask ChatGPT before they go on the App Store to search for something like that. That's the point. Not what YOU would do, but what the general public does. And for Jane Doe, ChatGPT has replaced a lot of these specialty apps.

Skills are great until they aren't. The problem is exactly what you say: You can literally create a skill by telling the LLM to create a skill. Which is... why the f do I need to make a skill if the AI already knows how to do it?

Properly created skills, that include reference material, specific instructions, and expert knowledge the LLM doesn't have or that's buried somewhere under 10 layers of reddit posts is genuinely useful. But most skills aren't. I'm constantly underwhelmed by hyped-up skills that, when I look at them, turn out to be bland, basic instructions.
