No problem, I'll get it on the final sale before it gets delisted, should be fixed by then. ;-)

People who spend their lives dreaming of having their five minutes now got a tool that seemingly creates that opportunity for them and for a lack of better judgement, they jump at it. So sad for everyone involved.

Quoting: scaineJust another hammer - small catch, every time you use it, someone dies. But yeah, it's just another tool. Would you use that hammer?

I hate to say that I think many people would actually still use that hammer if hey deemed it better than other hammers. Does the fact that lithium mine workers have a high mortality rate deter us from using cellphones? Does the fact that microplastic is silently turning oceans into deserts and probably give us all kinds of cancer deter us from buying stuff in plastic wrapping? Every day we make choices that are killing someone somewhere and while some choices have more direct consequences (e.g. speeding through the city or running the red light), some others are completely disconnected and comfortable to ignore. You probably wouldn't use that hammer if one of your family members or neighbours would die, but a random one of 8B people?

Ursula LeGuin explored this topic in "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas" and I don't think much has changed in the last fifty years. Shirley Jackson in "The Lottery" suggests that even if the sacrifice wasn't anonymous, we'd still be willing to make it if it assured our collective well-being, but I'm not so sure of that - I mean, why would we sacrifice one of ours if we could sacrifice two (or five) from the other end of the world instead, right?

Quoting: Savor592I can't stand the crap made with it.

Well, then it appears to me that you *do* have a sense of aesthetics. ;-)

Quoting: TheSHEEEPI do not understand how anyone supposedly in the marketing realm can fail to read a room this badly.

Have you looked at any corporate website recently? They are all actually boasting about using AI. And they are written by marketing folks, too.

"To us, the AI is just another tool" - well then put it in the shed and lock the door.

Nice, I hope they also fix the PLN price of TTP2 soon, so I can actually buy it instead of just keeping it on my wishlist and boycotting it at the same time, lol.

You and all of the people who have a sense of aesthetics, Mr Hudson.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. We need three-strike system for accounts contributing to open source projects. First slop submitted to any project = warning, second = red flag, third = ban from opening any pull requests. Project maintainers would be able to opt in/out to allowing these accounts to contribute to their projects. Of course I realise that it's trivial to create a new account, but the main motivation behind such contributions are building "reputation" and filling these green squares, so that system should act perfectly fine as a deterrent.
