  • Depends on your definition of ‘difficult’. I can pull a motherboard and replace it, I can hand-edit the Windows registry to do some shit most people aren’t even aware is possible, etc. Are those things difficult? No, because I know how to do them. They are complex and technical and require a fair bit of knowledge and understanding to not screw it up though. Everything is difficult until you learn how to do it, then it’s not. Might be better to ask how hard it is to learn? Cause I can’t drive at all so I’m guessing it’s somewhere between multiplication tables and organic chemistry but that’s probably not helpful. :P



  • And you’re so stupid as to not be able to understand that it’s your responsibility to decide what your kids should and should not have access to, not the government’s, especially when the only tools they have to do so just make it harder for the rest of us to get access to those things at best? ‘Won’t some one please think of the children’ has worn pretty goddamned thin: think of your own children, they’re your responsibility, not mine and not Congress’.



  • That’s fair, i didn’t catch the ‘certain kind’ in the original. My bad.

    And yeah I was by no means saying all old people will be fine anyway. But I’ve played a fair bit of it and all you have to do is type or sometimes draw on your phone. People do the former all day, and the latter isn’t terribly different from just navigating since it’s a touchscreen. shrug No doubt some people will find a way to block even that from their mind, but.





  • I admit I haven’t tried it myself, but I’ve heard it’s a thing, apparently? shrug But I’ve noticed in my other uses that they’re a lot better about citing sources for their claims now, so I guess you could just go ‘Hey what’s the capital of Vermont?’, ignore its answer, then click on the source link below it, and voila: search engine?

    My point was more: is this just the way things are going to go, we’re going to get funneled into using AI for everything whether we want to or not?
