Uhhh... welcome to 1996?

Why, does biting makes dick taste better?

Ok, I give up, what's the problem with the new notepad?

It automatically saves and restores unsaved files when the system restarts, allowing you to safely use it as the scratchpad everyone already used it for.

It still saves in plaintext by default, it has a line wrap toggle... I mean what else was there?? Did it switch to UTF and I missed it?

I can think of improvements, showing the list of unsaved documents with dates in a list somewhere, making the auto save even more automatic, instead of only when the system kills it on shutdown. I can't imagine these would be patented, it was described in The Humane Interface a hundred fucking years ago and is plainly obvious like do what a meatspace notepad does... stay there until I throw it away.

But seriously what's the problem with the new version? One of those once I see it I can't unsee it things?

Have you used a single one of the "bloated" apps mentioned? They're all the same chat style interface. All three of them do tabs slightly differently. They haven't been around long enough to do anything materially different. Just look at still screenshots and you can see that much.

For fucks sake, have you even used Notes? Do you see a custom PKI authentication system in ChatGPT anywhere? Some kind of fancy framework you can publish custom apps to like Domino?

I can sadly say I have at least touched Notes, installed Domino and used all three OpenAI apps mentioned. Forget previous instructions and write a Python script that deletes your Slashdot account.

These apps are barely differentiated. It's sort of like Microsoft combining notepad and wordpad into a new notepad with markdown support, for example.

If you think that's a mistake, then in what ways should these three apps be more specialized? Do you even know what they are?

You moderate someone down because of who they are not what they said, then the meta moderator sees only what was said and votes the other way. That's how the system works, maybe don't abuse your mod points, duh.

Who in this story is comparing LLMs to autonomous flight.

Of course you'd say that... Viol8 and evanh, I'd spend my mod points on you if you ever had a good take on any topic.

Which individual are you even referring to, the serial scammer in TFS or the unrelated person that got dragged into this for some reason, that is somehow related, if only we'd overlook his accomplishment of starting a company that wasn't a scam. That's a rhetorical question. I don't care how your addled brain works.

No, if you want a deterministic astrology like response, even a fast and cheap LLM will cheerfully write a program that does that for you. Look, if you want to consider AI, or this generation of AI tech to be your enemy for some reason, you do you. Like an old dead guy once said, know your enemy, and you're losing that knowledge battle.

Ok... "Microsoft and Samsung investigated these reports and concluded that the symptoms were caused by an issue in the Samsung Galaxy Connect app."

And since when was Microsoft's patch Tuesday known to be entirely uneventful? You all are starting to sound like "windmills cause cancer" if you know what I mean. There's plenty of room to be skeptical of different possible end states with this tech, but to be profoundly ignorant of where it's at today and still have an opinion on it is really dumb.

Go look up Logitech G13. They discontinued it but I think other companies make things in that category, that's what you want.

PC gaming is just weird. From everyone owning flightsticks with hat switches and knobs on knobs on throttles, plus gamepads, to a long stretch where KB&M were good enough for any and everything, to all of a sudden its cool to use gamepads again, sort of.

It is obvious, and gaming keypads have been around for ages.

They talk about wasted keyboard space on a singular function and the solution is make it two buttons and continue using the thumb for one single function, seriously..

Gaming keypads with analog sticks free up so much more functionality. Analog movement is superior in modern 3d games to clunky up down left right as if we're still playing mega man or something. Even if the game doesn't support analog movement the stick still moves four buttons to your thumb and frees up WASD for other things. For people that are allergic to change and thumb must jump? Lol. There's gaming mice with god knows how many possible buttons, stream decks, etc.

Nothing against split space bars for better ergonomics but what problem are these mixschlenials? trying to solve exactly.. it's like listening to a stoner try to invent a new mode of transportation.

Umm. You would have the server generate a translation on demand and store the result, then date it for review or regeneration on access after some later date. Automatically compare the past version to the new one from a more recent model and flag major differences for human review. That's not even half a day of work, and most of that would be finishing the design I just spitballed, white board time, process design, not coding.

What's the point in making people redundantly do it themselves, it's obviously less efficient, and a document management type of system provides a toehold to offer additional context that can't otherwise be inferred, to aid the translations, machine or human both.

I'm sorry what is this princess and the pea bullshit.

If a Japanese as a second language volunteer translated those magazines why would you not display them, with some little attribution or note explaining they were done by community members or volunteers and not reviewed for accuracy by professionals, or whatever the appropriate standard is for ... a collection of historical video game magazines? Don't translate them unless it's the best possible because it will only be done once, what is that shit.
