Like the Romans used to drink from lead cups. Something like that.


(it appears that the moderator is removing any replies with which he disagrees. It might be a piefed issue. But all the removed replies are top level and upopular. Stranger coincidences have happened I suppose.)

Yes, was just about to say this. Whether intentional or "happy side effect" for them, search engines are awful now.

If there's one use of AI I actually appreciate and wish could be done more ethically, it's the ability to skim and summarize a whole ton of disparate forum posts about ultra niche technical stuff.

(As in, I don't gotta follow the whole irrelevant back and forth to post 344 which was a reply to post 35 that actually has a nugget of actionable advice.)

I like not having 80 browser tabs open trying to solve one small problem.

But then, that also discourages forum discussion, which was already being suffocated by Discord...so that really sucks. :(
