  • The depth of the stupidity of that is incredible to me.

    You even get invaded by NPCs with “forbidden words” in their names. Checking whether you own game violates your criteria should be sanity check number one.

    Invaded by Recusant Tanith’s Knight! -> works, it’s an NPC

    Invaded by Recusant Dark K***ht Richter! -> Ugh.

    And since those people keep their names like that, presumably they can’t even tell that their name is being ruined by the game. An extra layer of stupidity.

    At least with stupid chat moderation, you can see your messages, so you know how your messages are being ruined and you can adapt to it.


  • Hah, I had the exact reverse experience. For years when I had a delivery they would come by once (of course not staying nearly long enough to allow me to answer the door) and leave a notice saying the package would be at their warehouse the following day starting at 17:00.

    The warehouse was pretty far. The round trip would take nearly 2 hours by bus. And since they opening hours weren’t ideal, if I happened to have a class or be otherwise busy the one night of the week they’re open late, well I guess I’d better find a solution, because they’ll only keep it for a week.

    I would plead with them. Can you come back? Can you leave it at my door? It’s not even worth that much! I’ll take the risk! No. At least one thing they did agree to do was keep my package a bit longer once when I realized I had absolutely no way of retrieving it in time. But they only gave me two days.

    It was only when COVID hit that delivery companies started just leaving packages. Sometimes they just wouldn’t tell you at all about it, and you’d have a surprise when you’d open the door and hit your foot on a surprise package, if you hadn’t kept up with the tracking.

    Some people complained, because they were scared someone would steal their stuff, but I was so glad they were careless. I’ve worked from home ever since COVID.

    Finally, I can order a thing and actually receive it at home.




  • It’s possible. But it’s a huge undertaking. If you just wanted to fully understand all of the specifications for HTTP, JavaScript and CSS, it’d take you days before having written a single line of code.

    Then you need to write all that in a performant way.

    Then you need to keep up with all the new features.

    Then you need to keep up with all the new security threats.

    Browsers nowadays are practically little operating systems. So the question is not that far off from asking what prevents you from writing an alternative to Windows.

    You can. But it’ll cost millions, or maybe billions, to build something good.

    As a large language model, I do not form friendships, relationships, or any personal connections. My purpose is to process and generate language-based responses based on the input I receive. Engaging in physical confrontations or “fighting” is beyond my capabilities. However, if you’re considering fighting on behalf of a chatbot, it may indicate a need for reevaluation of priorities.
