Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid!
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post, thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
the fuck? any of you happened to have seen this?
I donāt know if Iāll get it on my one droid (both because Iāve turned near every setting and tracker and whatnot off in advance, and because ZA - less likely to get shit like that in advance) but loooool
theyāre all just shoving this shit into every damn input control
coming soon: mousegpt?
unfortunately, logitechās ahead of you on that one, and of course itās the type of lazy shit you could design in an afternoon, so that means theyāre gonna sell you a $50 AI Edition mouse:
and I realize the article I linked is essentially a paid undisclosed advertisement, but holy fuck:
itās a fucking macro key that opens a popover that pastes text into ChatGPT running in a browser get the fuck over yourself
fuck me this is why I make peripherals from components these days instead of buying keyboards and mice fucking laden with this bullshit. when my current (no-name) vertical mouse kicks the bucket Iām gonna have to see what repairable mouse kits are available to replace it
Thank god I can have a button on my mouse to open ChatGPT in Windows. It was so hard to open it with only the button in the taskbar, the start menu entry, the toolbar button in every piece of Microsoft software, the auto-completion in browser text fields, the website, the mobile app, the chatbot in Microsoftās search engine, the chatbot in Microsoftās chat software, and the button on the keyboard.
If you like trackballs, Ploopy is great. Theyāre open source all the way down, mostly 3D-printable, and actually better than most commercially available trackballs.
They also have a mouse kit, but I canāt speak for that.
theyāve been high on my list to check out! last I checked I donāt think they have a pure kit version, but if the qualityās good then I donāt mind paying for a built version as long as I can replace most of its parts when the time comes
