  • I like it when an app seems a little bit poorly made, I can just try it out and when it doesn’t work I can simply delete it. Much better than installing it with some random shell script or handmade package file. You never know if installing won’t fuck up something or uninstalling it leaves stuff behind or removes stuff is shouldn’t.

    There’s a few apps I use once in a blue moon to convert some files, they all sit in one little folder not hurting anything till I need them. That folder is pretty old and has moved multiple systems, but they still work great for what they do.



  • I hate AI itself plenty, but I hate the way regular people see AI even more. It’s marketed as being this super smart always right do everything machine. And people believe it, they actively argue the AI is right or has certain capabilities, even tho it’s obviously wrong and most certainly does not have those capabilities. They use it a lot and they keep on using it, even when it’s wrong all the time. And a lot of people know it’s wrong all the time, but they keep on using it. They gleefully exclaim their job is so much easier now that the AI does all the work. To me that just screams they were either bad at their job if the AI can do better, or they are now doing their job poorly with AI. And even if the AI did the job just fine, why would you be happy about that? That means you are going to get replaced by a bot.

    We wouldn’t have so much issues with AI at the moment if people just used some common sense and not believe every bit of marketing they ever see.
