I have a good keyboard, and on a good day, I can do 60 words a minute. I completely and fundamentally disagree with you. Using a microphone to speak what you want to appear on the screen can be, if you use it correctly, much, much faster than typing it. using a keyboard is great now for certain types of things, but these modern tools recognize things like when you use commas and are pausing, when a sentence ends, and so on. You don't need to actually say the sentence and then say the word period after it to end a sentence. These tools actually can recognize this now. So it makes it much, much faster. I'm using it right now. And I did not edit a single thing after I completed my speech here and hit submit.

You don't have to have a disability to use one of these tools. I did start using one because I was typing way, way too much. But it turns out that they're actually extremely useful. So I compose all my emails and do all of my development work with propts using a tool like this. It doesn't need to be bundled with Ubuntu.

They all work essentially the same way. They are using some sort of an API connection into an LLM. But it's not full AI. It's essentially a type of speech recognition, as far as I understand.

So I already use a tool like this. It's called Voicy. I use it because I've been writing so many long prompts that I developed relatively severe tendonitis in my left arm. And also I was leaning on my desk so much when typing that I developed bursitis in my elbow. So I got this application, and then I got a microphone, and now I can make very long, large prompts. It has actually sped up the development of a game that I'm working on by an astronomical amount. In fact, I'm using it right now. It's not perfect, but it does the job, and I actually don't type very much now. It's a lifesaver, and I use it within Ubuntu in WSL.

So yes, many people actually do ask for these sorts of things. You don't even know that you need it until actually after you start using it, and that will completely switch the way that you code. It also changes the way that you do prompts. In one sense, it makes them less precise because it becomes more of a stream-of-thought type programming, whereas when you're typing prompts, you're forced to slow down. But on the balance, it's actually very, very beneficial.

You haven't said why that person is wrong, you're just asserting it. That poster is completely accurate.

Propaganda is something that a state puts out. This is a post by an actual user. It's not somebody from a state, unless you can confirm it.

The proof is in the pudding. The Iranian government has sponsored and been responsible for multiple actions of terrorism over the past few decades. It is an extremely fanatical Islamic death cult.

Since it's pretty clear you do not understand what propaganda means, I think we can take the rest of your claims just as seriously.

These tech companies bent over backwards to appease that clown in the half-a-white-house, and he responds by making it more difficult for the very employees that help them operate their company to come back to the US. The racism is on full display, and yet these tech companies are too chicken-shit to stand up to that clown and his literally evil minions.

Perhaps you should put your dusty old login back into storage.
"asbestos salesman" is functionally equivalent to "heading a corporation that bought and owned a subsidiary that mass produced and sold products that had asbestos".
He could have divested that part of the company Halliburton bought from their portfolio. They did not. Ergo, he was an asbestos salesman.
