Though it's probably the best way for now, I don't think it will last. Just like there's a market for 'mouse jigglers' to keep online status in the workplace... there will be automations for sale that will take GenAI output as input, and mimic all the natural mistakes and progress a human would make in writing a document.
- hackernewds 3y agoSure, but not everyone will use them. Or know how. Which brings up the point of relying on false locks as security
- grepfru_it 3y agoFunny! I made a mouse jiggler (actual hardware mouse with switch to enable/disable) 10 years ago and there was no market! I even had a full unproductivity suite, like software to send slack messages at a later time and a chair with a motor that would randomly spin it around to make people think you just stepped out.
- hammyhavoc 3y agoI need more info about the chair. Lmao.
- mensetmanusman 3y agoAll I can think of is this chair seemingly spinning after all humans are dead from the next pandemic. Ahaha
- grepfru_it 3y agoIt’s just a regular office chair, you press a button then get up and walk away. It will then wait between 4-38 minutes before turning at least 100 degrees. If you press the button X times, it would shutdown after X hours. It really works (as in people tend to remember the last position of the chair) if you leave a sweater or jacket or something on the back.
- hammyhavoc 3y agoThat's utterly brilliant!
