I concur. In fact I would add that the roles have flipped. Now "You're welcome" is rude especially if not preceded by a thank you. No prob or "no problem" indicates to a person that I value them and that I am at their service. It should make them feel important--that I would help in any way I can (even if it IS a large order) and they should not feel disserviced.

With AI we often overlook the reasons why what it replaced died. SO could have taken time to categorize and ADD helpful context, but instead they spent all their resources to gatekeeping and being downright malicious in handling new questions. Idk how many times I've searched for a .NET issue only to find an answer to .NET 2, with an API that uses completely different method calls. I know the people who run SO have learned nothing. Good riddance.

There needs to be some formal rules set in place such that if you do not abide by them, you are no longer allowed to participate. China, Russia, and N. Korea have two-faced hypocritical governments that take advantage of the world allowing them to speak freely (in the digital realm), yet spend enormous energy ensuring that within their digital walls, you cannot speak freely.

I don't get it. Brightest?!

I currently have the backlight on my oled set to 0. Yes, it's not a true backlight, because OLED is the "backlight" and display, but my point is...

It's too bright!

The same for my LCD monitor. It's at 1. My car's LCD is as far down as it can go, and driving in rural areas I have to put a cloth over it because it ruins night vision. It's all TOO BRIGHT! Why do people want it brighter? Why not just go stare at 10 suns instead?!? Wtf!
