It’s one thing to have bad optics, but it’s another entirely to give a fuck about them. (See also: Facebook.)

The market can stay irrational for longer than you can stay solvent.

I told her about the $800 last-minute flight, and the problem solved itself. My mom has miles, but she sure as fuck isn’t doing to pay for her flight, despite doing that with my most recent ex four years ago. Nichol just left everyone with a sour taste.

I don’t really care for a $999,990 plate with $10 of shitty food.

Shit. Is that how I lost my porn collection?

Ah, but if you want a proper defenestration, Prague’s the go-to.

Yes.

Actually, yes.

If you truly believe LLMs are transformative, that’s on you. I’d perhaps not believe people going forward, as they tend to lie.

Much obliged!

I’m not saying anything of the sort. You’re reading shit you wanted to into this.

OK, as you have all the answers: What is making people fearful?

For (puts pinky against lips) 17 MILLION dollars.

I’m reminded of the fairy tale of the two squirrels in the Black Forest. As fall came to pass, they BALLROOM!

I mean, corporations are people. How is this less reasonable?

An accountant vouching for penis length? Happens all the time.

It’s ultimately frustrating to me that I suspect AI here. There are weird inconsistencies.

But, come on.

It has a lot of potential

Really? That’s what everyone says about their toddler while it pukes.

That seems a bit extreme. I don’t need anything beyond CS6, and so far, Affinity is looking good. If people want to pay extra for added features to subsidize me, more power to them; I’m seriously fine with features from (longer than I want to think) ago.

As it turns out, people already have it working in Linux. I just torrented the latest KDE Neon build in case I get a wild hair for a project tomorrow.

I’m not holding my breath for a Linux version. They’re positioning themselves as the alternative to Adobe, so they only need to cover those situations.

Though downloading it did introduce me to MSIX installers, which then led down a rabbit hole. Back in the app, all I did to kick the tires was create a layout and hit T to see if I could immediately draw a text box. The answer was “yes,” so that’s a good first impression. I just have nothing to design currently.
