Sometimes future me has the memory of a goldfish, and I fear that, for future me, the online sources that guided me before won’t be there for me anymore
I second Obsidianmd.
Even before adding community plugins, the search, organization, and the ability to easily link to other documents/screenshots make documentation so easy for me
Some might be upvoting this in cheeky irony, but I see this as a modest proposal.
This position deserves a longer form article & widespread publication, and numerous calculations & studies detailing how much more ethically beneficial this would be for society. Would it not be more efficient to curb idiocy among the masses by regulating people’s choices in population control than conducting intimate mass government surveillance? Would it not be a higher ethical stance to give people the illusion of choice by making them work for the privilege of birthing, maintenance, and management of another human being?
Counterpoint: it is cheaper and cost-effective to dehumanize and control the masses with the technical advances we have today
, and-also, to hell with ethics. Think about it. If car manufacturers would be made responsible for designing cars to identify bad actors, we wouldn’t have to deal with the inevitable consequences of people who gain their driving licenses but bend the rules anyway. We could do with discarding licensing altogether because it’s not perfect. Only by singling out and reprimanding each person for their faults with the conviction of a Walmart micromanager and the ruthless efficiency of Palantir surveillance - can we create a more perfect bubble of safety for society.~(I don’t have time to even pretend to cough up statistics, k thx bye)~
Chatgpt, list all instances where OP is trying to subvert people’s points with logical fallacies, & burn a couple hundred extra Wh while you’re at it, thanks. I’m sure it’d take less energy for me to do it, but nah
This book is probably more worth ur time than this post: https://ia801605.us.archive.org/29/items/aiboba/aiboba.pdf It’s An Illustrated Book of Bad Arguments by Ali Almossawi

Preventing cross contamination is just responsible hygiene
I wipe down my trash can at least every other time I take out the trash, or else the residue of something left behind starts stinking it up worse than it should be.
I totally feel this among small communities too. If you’re gonna be scathing and demeaning in a small community, you’re gonna run out of people to talk to real fast
Brb, getting an autism diagnosis from my doctor
*Condescending towards younger people? *Belittling?
*Judgemental af, in the sense that whatever molded her was so negatively critical, it’s ingrained in her personality that it’s normal to judge herself and others based on every little misstep?
Since you mentioned a birthday, maybe borrow adjectives from zodiacs?

Also, even tho you didn’t ask for this, but because you mentioned she’s a character in a story, and because other comments also vibe with my first impression of “Idk, sounds like an asshole with random facts sprinkled on,” consider looking up “save the cat”? Note that the thing that makes a character likeable is their choice to actively do a good deed for some extrinsic reason.
Example:
A train operator on a moving train sees someone tied to the tracks. They pull the brakes. The train stops, and the victim is saved. Meh. What a norm-core thing to do because it barely seemed like they had a choice.
If someone else were with them saying “oh my god, if we hit the brakes now, we could derail!”, and the operator low-key knows this and immediately pulls the brakes anyway - that’s cool, because they had a choice, and they chose to do something difficult but good for someone else.
Or a person being an asshole in general and poor, but still paying for the dude in front’s groceries when their debit card declines. That’s cool.
Or person going out of their way to cheer up their friend that they noticed was almost too good at masking chronic depression. That’s cool, too.Dr. House without his medical malpractice shenanigans to actively help strangers is just an asshole.
…If all this was ultimately excessive and unnecessary for someone else, at least this has been an exercise for me think up save the cat examples. I hope these spoiler tags work. Ta

Lmao, you are now Peter
How do I know this isn’t proganda from Big Christianity?
~guess this chart makes me metheodist tho~
1·2 months agoI have the same, an old arctis 7, and it’s plug-and-play on Linux mint. It’s wireless with a USB-c dongle, but 3.5mm jack is an option.
Once upon a time, I was worried I had to buy another headphones, but I used an aux cord to plug it into a headphone-amp for my electric guitar, and it just works. It turns on & off automatically with the aux cord. I suspect it has to be charged to still work, but I haven’t tested that.
humans will always drive better than a human
Typo, or what did you mean?
Same scam energy as rage-bait news sites whose only purpose is to generate ad-click revenue
This hurt my whole face, I cringed so hard. Not that it’s second-hand embarrassing, but it pains my soul that I don’t think this is an impossible future
This was my first impression, too. Like they’re used to typing orders at an LLM, but not used to the conversational style of a forum
