Weird but I don't give a fuck if you aren't hurting anyone and you do it where I don't have to be aware of it.

Maybe this is just because I'm old but I hate them and avoid using them the super majority of the time.

I would be more okay with them if I had some way of making my device render them like the way Unicode glyphs do. I want my text to stay black and white God damn it.

I can ask the longest and most complete question ever posed but if the genie is a trickster it's always going to pan out that way.

This is a source of intense misery for me because I want to eat healthier and stuff so I don't randomly drop dead as soon, or at least make it less likely.

The problem is that I haven't really found anything that does the job as well as the real half and half. Oat milk doesn't provide the same kind of modification to the flavor.

And then their hubris is punished when they are stepped on.

Are you saying those things irradiate the fuck out of you?

In my experience one of the easiest ways that you can disguise AI generated writing is to strip all the em dashes and replace them with either semicolons or make the sentence have a clean break.

There are definitely some tells.

I've noticed a pretty severe uptick in not just X, actually Y, clumsy analogies that don't actually make any sense, people using em dashes who don't actually know what they are. Plenty of people are just straight up outsourcing their thinking to this thing.

Before 2022 or whenever I don't think I can recall ever noticing the presence of an em dash.

You're so right, — that's not just annoying, it's a travesty. Someone should follow Sam Altman's recipe for risotto.

Disclaimer I did write that myself as a shit post, if you're wondering. Most keyboards don't actually have an easy way to type an em dash. However my phone keyboard will if you long press the regular dash.

Were ye brave enough twould make nae a difference.

If I were to say taxation is theft I would mean it in the way that the way it is currently being applied to my personal income is analogous to theft. Not the taxation in general is unfair. I think it's a pretty fair claim given that my health insurance which cost $5 a month went up to $400 a month and I just canceled it because I don't have a spare $400 a month laying around.

Technically the moon bucees board would need a light up sign that updates frequently as its distance from the moon would vary.

The Moon orbits Earth at an average distance of approximately 238,855 miles (384,400 km), ranging from about 225,623 miles (363,104 km) at its closest point (perigee) to 252,088 miles (405,696 km) at its farthest point (apogee).

And if you don't think it's a big deal try bringing enough food to get to a destination 225k miles away and finding out that it's actually 252k miles away and you're going to starve. Unless you find the waffle house of course.
