Ha, clicking links, like, with a mouse? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/vimium-c/

... like banking alerts, your vehicle registration renewal notices, and tax e-filing updates? What world do you live in for email to not be critical?

If AI requires so much patience and persistence to use properly, how do you expect to achieve anything with it?

I have. It's helped me solve issues on machines that would have simply remained unsolvable otherwise.

You, who by your own admission, quits when you are initially unsuccessful?

It tends to accomplish the job with a higher rate of success than my own efforts. It's easier to interact with and stay motivated than to keep crawling through search results that often don't match the exact issue you're trying to fix.

Is “less than once a week” of time investment your official recommendation

Not at all. I'm just personally stating what my current usage has been like.

To be honest I don’t understand why I’m supposed to be anxious about your random office worker buddy using AI set up some reminders and calendar invites.

I never said anything about people needing to be "anxious." It is apparently costing companies too much to maintain, so I myself look forward to the bubble bursting. What I'm saying is that

Does it not strike you as odd that literally nobody can come up with specific, concrete examples of how the technology has improved their efficiency as a matter of fact?

Again, you don't need a smartphone to survive in today's times. The difficulty level of survival in today's world for people who willingly forgo ownership of a smartphone is probably about the same difficulty as it was when smartphones weren't available to anyone at all. That's fine; however, we with smartphones can simply do more faster. He already said that AI let him accomplish hours of work in 5 minutes; how much more concrete would you like? Would you like the exact count of hours? I don't get it. I was able to solve a driver issue using an LLM when I could literally find no one across the whole Internet who had found a solution to this problem. Do you not believe me?

Like are there any “prompt engineering” skills that take more than a few minutes to learn?

Again, I'm not super-pro-LLM as some people I know are, but I could point you to some friends who are. However, I doubt they'd care to waste time arguing with such a hardened skeptic, especially when I've said myself that I'm wary of its severe limitations and problems and try to not rely on it unless I see no other practical choice, when you're already trying to go to your absolute darnedest to rebuke me for my meager use.

I absolutely could not wrap my head around even gvim, but thanks for the idea; I know it's well regarded, but my skull is too thick. The Nemo Compare plugin apparently works flawlessly!

Hmm, yeah, it found nothing. I have no idea of how to check whether it runs at boot, though. I suppose I'll just assume so... thanks!

Man, the trailers for this game and the other bundled healer game are really not that great. I feel like the trailers and the price are holding these back from reaching a far greater audience. I guess I could try the demo sometime though.

I don't want to manually retype what I'm quoting, though. What if I wanna quote several lines across several responses in one comment? How do you highlight and copy? Every other app lets you press-hold on the parent comment's text for selection and copying to paste into your body. For many, even, you just need to highlight and then press the quote button.

Wow, you're right; it actually managed to go through the entire post without mentioning a single model... So ridiculous.

Gotcha, fair. I just think that maybe the point-and-click crowd in particular is used to this kind of particular pain, haha.

Oh, okay; the original comment put it as "roe," the penultimate syllable. That was what I found to be bizarre.

Yeah, of course. The issue is that Blorp only offers this right now with no ability to remember always-ask.

Too bad. I would love to move to a Hyundai Casper, personally.
