If I ask copilot to help write a power automate script or similar, I guarantee it will not work. It won't make sense. And if I do it from within power automate, it wants to replace what I already have there. It's a mess.

If I pull up chatgot on my phone (because it's blacklisted at work) I will get very clear, step by step instructions that are usually good enough or occasionally not correct but close enough that I can tweak it back on course.

Or the BBC mini series version. Or the old BBC radio version. Or just read the books.

Damn! Forgotten memory unlocked. I used to have several packs of these!

And to the person asking about additional collection, I also had some large ships that had lights and sounds. I think a Roman ship, a Klingon bird of prey and an enterprise D.

This was the machine to count down registers at the end of every retail shift. Great little things. Training someone new on it was always a process though. A lot of people struggled with the concept of entering the sign/operation after the number.

Example 10+2-5 = 7 is entered into the machine as 10 [+] 2 [+] 5 [-] [* or T]. Of course most people treated it like a regular calculator and hit 10 [+] 2 [-] 5 and then scratched their heads to find the equals.

While my kids are watching Disney+, if there is a wifi blip the stream gets messed up. The video starts going into a fast forward type mode and the audio disappears. That's when I hear my kid yell from the other room "there's no words again!"

Never have those issues streaming from my jellyfin server.

Not every game needs to reinvent the wheel. You're absolutely right.

However, games that ask me to spend $80 absolutely need to bring something exceptional to the table.

Always a good sign when, in a promo shot for a watch, I'm having trouble reading what time it is.

I'm sure lthe iquid glass watch face is completely optional but damn, when I glance at my wrist I just want the time to be simple and obvious.

Undoubtedly yes, but also I watch a lot of video essays, documentaries, and science channels on YouTube. It has basically replaced the discovery channel of the 90s and similar. I can also watch things like, the opening monologues of talk shows, attend up comedy, etc. There's a lot of tv being displaced by YouTube even without treading into the influencer and ai slop-o-sphere.

Clicked into the comments specifically to see this was posted and watch it for the millionth time.

Reading is hard. My advice still stands for everyone else though.

God forbid you turn on the subtitles for a dubbed anime and now the words don't match what anyone is saying.
