…you know people made fake pictures before image generation, right?

That sounds like a lot of work. On sites where that work (which is not all of them, some are made by competent people), firefox “reading mode” just do the job.

Subscription models. Some sites even combine some free articles with it, so that anyone can look into their works, but not necessarily everything. If it fits you, you get a subscription. Sort of the same way people would pay for their daily newspaper.

It can be argued that “news” should be free, and there are some news site that are basically picking up AP/AFP/whatever and repost these, but actual journalism do requires work.

Spec says 4.

Even better, they took actual extensions and made them built-in and impossible to remove. The work was already done to keep a lightweight browser with extra features in option, and they reverted it.

It’s been going for years now. We just don’t want to move away because, frankly, there’s little viable alternatives.

Inertia?

Hey, I’ve seen this manga.

Now you have a visual interpretation of the concept of a plan.

At this point I’m almost expecting to see banners to “Christmas 2025 sales”.

So, saying people should “get used to cloud gaming and subscription only” in the future gets a free pass, even if the people that said it are the one trying to create cloud gaming and suscription only games?

No worries, at no point in recent years have I been feeling I “owned” a ubisoft game. Not even played them. I’m that committed to follow thge instructions of some dipshit.

Good news, they’re making eating in expensive too, so you can get the full experience!

It says “I don’t really speak french but I’ll write something good enough”.

Seriously, it sounds really weird.

For repetitive tasks, it can almost automatically get a first template you write by hand, and extrapolate with multiple variations.

Beyond that… not really. Anything beyond single line completion quickly devolves into either something messy, non working, or worse, working but not as intended. For extremely common cases it will work fine; but extremely common cases are either moved out in shared code, or take less time to write than to “generate” and check.

I’ve been using code completion/suggestion on the regular, and it had times where I was pleasantly surprised by what it produced, but even for these I had to look after it and fix some things. And while I can’t quantify how often it happened, there are a lot of times where it’s convincing gibberish.

Because saying things, even if they are known, is a thing humans do for various reasons. It seems that sometimes they need to be reminded simple truth.

It’s true though. Saying this is not necessarily meant to be the end of a discussion.

It was either that or eating your head off.

They want to sell thinner phones, but the optics needs some room to be useful, so it shows. The little range they can get with keeping that much width do a lot for image quality.
