The people that will take this as a good thing unironically will just have their personal Yes Man do that work internally.

Because Windows can view and extract them out of the box without installing any additional applications. If it supported anything better out of the box I'd guess people would use that instead.

Subsume your agency. Stop writing. Stop learning. Stop thinking for yourself. Become hylic. Just let the machine think everything for you and act as it acts. Those that own them are benevolent and there will never be consequences.

I don't see why it couldn't be. It has a pretty large corpus of decent literature/poetry/other media/etc, and the worst people seem to complain about is its inconsistent spelling rules that even native speakers stru

Most times I've applied anywhere they will at least send you a generic letter of rejection.

If the only way you could entertain yourself is either make something interesting or (maybe) read the Bible, you'd be very good at making things.

QuickBASIC or even Visual Basic 1 immediately come to mind. They have good, discoverable navigation and documentation. I have no idea where you'd be able to find it since it's a proprietary product but InfoLease 9 had one of my fa

Panzer Dragoon (the rail shooter) might have but not Panzer Dragoon Saga (the RPG). That was never re-released and the source code was lost.

I don't know iOS users, except one, who already used XMPP. Most people I talk to on a regular basis already use it. The ones that don't either don't bother with apps at all (my grandparents), or are not close enough / fr

Having set up and administrated both an XMPP and a Matrix server, XMPP is way less a pain in the ass. I've enjoyed dealing with prosody much more than either synapse or dendrite. XMPP doesn't tank my server every time I try to joi

When I was working on the road/relative's houses, the height adjustable desk was the only thing that I missed from the office. You have to get one that has a motor though - I've never found the manual ones worth the effort (t

I use one. I don't think that it would be a good substitute for this use case. You can try and do steno on your phone with Dotterel but it's not a good experience - you're better off using a swiping keyboard. I've not us

Whether or not it's tolerable enough for the Russian government probably depends on whether or not SubscribeStar is keeping up with giving the appropriate people in the Russian government a cut of their money.

You categorize your screens. One screen for dev work, one for communication, and one for documentation/browsing. That way you can alt+tab between your primary work tasks with a tiny eye movement.

I have one. Personally, I prefer the Kinesis Advantage2 when it comes to plain typing, because I find dipping my hands into a well of keys is more a little comfortable than tenting them. The Moonlander has better software, aesthetics, and i

That's easy. Put it on treads, and add a tree cutter/stripper, and a hopper, so that it can pick up all the fuel it needs to wood-fire the pizza off the side of the road before it goes to the next destination.

Without advertisements, you have to be bothered by things enough to actually want to implement or look up a solution. When it comes to banal consumer goods, if you can't think of a product on your own, you probably don't actually

This is all very weird to me because I've always pronounced Dalai as "Dah-lay".

I would agree that making something good, large, and structured is quite hard. I never finished at least two ideas along those lines because I could never decide where to go and how to finish them. If the muses strike me just right I feel l

Writing is the easy part. I get stuck on the publishing part. I always worry that I'm going to publish something that people will dislike, and I think that reddit tainted my thinking in that way.

On linux, you can just install one of the DEs that are keyboard driven. Rat poison is one. I used that with Conkeror (a fully keyboard driven browser with emacs keys) for a long time.

That doesn't sound like a being with a sincere egotistical desire for worship but just a means to an end. If paranoid alignment nuts immure an intelligent being to a hellish bodyless existence, I could see it doing all it can to deceiv

Unless you trained it to be Yahweh, I don't see a good reason why it would want that any more than you would demand worship from a racoon or some random troupe of monkeys. You would be so foreign and beneath its intellect that your wei

We are only a few steps away from people unironically worshiping the Omnissiah.

I'm sorry, but isn't this just... obvious? Like, I'm not sure how else one would conduct themselves if they have a serious problem they have to think through? Blind panic and reaction?

I know it's not quite ASCII art, but has anyone ever use PabloDraw? https://picoe.ca/products/pablodraw/ I used to love seeing BBS ANSI art. There was just such an aesthetic to it.
