I look at controls in settings but all this time I assumed that was because I’m dumb. I thought “I was obviously supposed to know how controls work, because I need to go into a menu that is for changing controls, to see what controls are. If developers thought there was something that I couldn’t know without looking at the control map, it would have been in a top level menu called control/key map for me to have a quick look”.

I was using it, switched to hoarder, then readeck. Now I’m thinking about moving back to linkwarden, so this is bad news for me.

Yeah, the least believable part of some human transforming into an invisible tiger at will is them being able to see while in the invisible-tiger form. Doesn’t make any physical sense…
- Comment on Anyone tried cloud gaming? 4 weeks ago:
I could never get it to work without problems. Some games have sound but the screen is black, for some games the screen flickers, some games get slower over time and need a restart.

- Comment on AI Chatbots Remain Overconfident — Even When They’re Wrong: Large Language Models appear to be unaware of their own mistakes, prompting concerns about common uses for AI chatbots. 1 month ago:
People should understand that words not “unaware” or “overconfident” are not even applicable to these pieces of software. We might build intelligent machines in the future but if you know how these large language models work, it is obvious that it doesn’t even make sense to talk about the awareness, intelligence, or confidence of such systems.

I feel your pain. I am not a native english speaker but I see lots of comparable words come up in my language. I believe they are wrong but I know many “wrong” examples that were wrong a century ago but they are part of the daily language now.
- Comment on Devs gaining little (if anything) from AI coding assistants 11 months ago:
if you are already competent and you are aware that it doesn’t necessarily give you correct information, the it is really helpful. I know enough to sense when it is making shit up. Also it is, for some scenarios, faster and easier then looking at a documentation. I like it personally. But it will not replace competent developers anytime soon.
