You are indeed correct. I'm the type of person who watches movies once and rarely goes back to re-watch them. But there are just a few things I truly wish to support and will go back and enjoy years later. I went from a 0 movie collect

You are definitely copying and pasting from an LLM. Perhaps GPT, going by the flavor. We see you trollin', we hatin', we caught you commenting dirty.

Google has been caught red-handed causing deliberate issues for non-Chrome browsers. Try changing the browser-agent and see if you still have issues.

I've completely avoided Chrome/Edge in the browser wars. I went from Netscape to IE to Firefox and stayed there. I was using it before and after its notorious changes to WebExtensions API breaking many plugins in 2017. I don'

I know humans have a huge tendency to anthropomorphize inanimate objects and get emotionally attached to them, but watching how people treat inanimate objects is very interesting. I know devices are not alive, cognizant, or having feelings,

They can cite their sources which can be double checked by the user and verified. I guess at that point the user would just tell you what they found and use the same sources and people would be way less hostile than they currently are. Whet

Would the same thought apply to Wikipedia, though. If a user said "Well, according to Wikipedia" and blah blah blah, would that be dismissed out of hand.

Apparently where the line currently is leads to a whole lot of pain and suffering for everybody involved, for the sufferer and their family, because bad actors exist. I tell you this now in good faith, any human being can choose when to end

"News reports, presumably based on DHS statements, described Quiet Skies as a 'Biden-era' program even though its largest expansion came in 2018 during the first Trump administration." More like we're lucky that in

We're a mutt species, inbreeding frequently, all descendants of Australopithecus, hooking up with second and third cousins. It's incest all the way down.

LLMs are dangerous in that the basically mirror and mimic whatever you put in. Paranoia in, magnified paranoia out. A mostly stable person undergoing a temporary crisis could spiral down further after the model picks up on and reflects it b

How long before we hear HERESY from the Ecclesiarchy, I wonder. I presume it would be if an AI becomes convincing enough to successfully argue theology and debating doctrine. Edited for clarity: This is mostly a reference to the 40k univers

There is no reason I, a user, will intentionally use your product when you fill it with ads that are, at best annoying, and at worst malware vectors. You have your right to develop things your way, I have a right to say no thank you. Google
