I had a professor who spent many years in the thick of battle in the Vietnam war. He said this was one of the hardest things to deal with mentally. One person would survive after getting shot all over and the next person would get the smallest bit of shrapnel in the wrong spot and "just turn off."

Okay, but back up there a second: People quietly writing stuff or doing work upsets you?

It's one of the most egalitarian things. Dressing down is inclusive of people who can't dress up. And as far as society goes, the world was very well dressed through the period it couldn't stop declaring war on itself.

Lol Portland is a fantastic place to live. I literally just took a vacation there last week.

People here acting like they've never bought something stupid and useless.

I'm in a similar boat. Deleted my accounts. Visit a few old communities that are hard to move on from, but old.reddit has always been my line in the sand.

"I apologized therefore everything is resolved and any further conflict is just other people holding on to the past" is such a gaping window into the selfishness of some people.

Mordor In The Middle is my most anticipated new Frankie Muniz project.

Go camping and just throw all the dirty stuff in the back to clean at home. Take all the yard clippings to the mulcher without having to bag them or keep a pile on the curb. I have a hard tonneau cover so sometimes I like keeping my tools under there if I have to park in the city without worrying about people seeing the valuables through a window.

People like to say truck owners never use their trucks but I use mine constantly. I'm camping at least 12-15 weekends per year, hauling yard equipment, kayaking, helping people move, and all in a midsized truck.

At this point I think there's a high likelihood that production will start close to their plan of late this year. As the other commenter said, you can go watch multiple videos of test drives. Pre-orders opened yesterday. But what do I know?

So your comment isn't really about AI hate and more about not understanding hyperbole as slang.

I wish this were true in my experience. Its definitely wrong enough that I have to fact-check results. And when the AI answer is correct it's often adding in context that is incorrect or assumed.

This has led to more than a few uncomfortable conversations with people who live in this "reality" you speak of, where the oracle box spews only truth and that I'm weird for denying it.
