If it wasn’t for the AI nonsense, this could’ve actually been a great idea.

Businesses might want to use Reddit comments as ads.

Reddit says “Hey, let us find those glowing reviews that we have as Reddit comments, and you can link directly to the original source!”

Then the original comment writer could edit their comments to call political figures pedos, and businesses learn their lesson that this kind of stuff is not suited for using Reddit as a primary source, lol

I was referring to where they said

Bro, it’s a YOSHI game

Going based on the expectations set by Yoshi’s Island, one wouldn’t be off to expect challenge in Yoshi’s Story, its follow-up.

Apostrophes aren’t symptoms, they’re easily-corrected mistakes.

Apostrophes almost never pluralize nouns. So if you’re talking about more than one of something, you almost never need to add an apostrophe to make it plural.

Knowledge is power. Being neurodiverse doesn’t change that.

I dunno, Yoshi’s Island can get pretty hard…

Why are North Korea and South Korea both recognized internationally as separate nations, but China and Taiwan aren’t?

[the rest of the explanation here]

Maybe something like that?

It’s a bad choice, imo. The title should usually have the entire question within.

I know this doesn’t answer your question, but I think something went wrong with your formatting. In Voyager (Lemmy), your title seems to be cut off, and the body of your post is way bigger than it should be, lol

1. You can probably re-use a burner phone again and again
2. What do you need a phone for? Could it be replaced with other items? (Cameras, walkie-talkies, printed maps?)

Do you live somewhere that you can get around without relying on a car (or someone with a car)?

If not, can you reasonably move to and live in a place like that?

If those are options, do those.

If not, learn how to drive properly and safely. DO NOT drive unless you feel in control of the car on public roads.

“Not being good at multitasking” isn’t an excuse to put people’s lives in danger.

Some people need more time to learn and practice and that’s fine. You need to take responsibility and take that time to learn and practice.

It may need more than lessons. It might require therapy. But if you need to drive, then you need to drive safely. And relying on other people to drive for you is not the answer either.

I’ve decided that gaming is my top solo hobby, so I dedicate the appropriate time to it. On most days, I can get a solid hour in, sometimes 2 if I’m caught up or ahead on errands and making food.

Thanks for sharing! Never would’ve known about this otherwise.

at the federal level I only vote for the candidates in my writing

I’m guessing you’re a Canadian that was using voice-to-text with your device’s language set to “US English”.

In American English, “writing” and “riding” sound the same. But not in Canadian English. Or British English, but for a different reason.

Last I heard, “learning styles” are a myth

There’s a difference between a small penis and a micropenis.

If I wanted an AI summary, I’d put the article into my favourite LLM and ask for one.

I’m sure LLMs can take links sometimes.

And if Wikipedia wanted to include it directly into the site…make it a button, not an insertion.

These tools are marketed as replacing lots of jobs that are a hell of a lot more complex than a simple board game.

There isn’t really a single sliding scale of “complexity” when it comes to certain tasks.

Given the appropriate input, a calculator can divide two numbers. But it can’t count the number of R’s in the word “strawberry”.

Meanwhile, a script that could count the number of instances of a letter in a word could count those R’s, but it couldn’t divide any two numbers.

Similarly, we didn’t complain that a typewriter couldn’t put pepperoni slices onto a pizza.

There are plenty of geniuses out there who aren’t great at board games. Using a tool not fit for task is more of an issue with the person using the wrong tool than an issue with the tool itself.

I do get where you’re coming from though. There are definitely people who don’t understand why a ChatBot wouldn’t be good at chess.

I’d be interested in seeing marketing of ChatGPT as a competitive boardgame player. Is there any?

That is more a failure of the person who made that decision than a failing of ChatBots, lol

Because people want to feel superior because they don’t know how to use a ChatBot can count the number of "r"s in the word “strawberry”, lol
