@notplants Would you object if I made stickers with this (or a replica) on? I need them.
@jonty @notplants would def make great merch.
aw these would make great stickers. I got the image from a friend from scuttlebutt, and they said it’s also of unknown provenance after some research into where it came from. so imo it is a Meme(TM) now, and would be fine to turn into a sticker
@notplants Marvellous! Thanks!
@notplants Yes that's what AI is
@notplants you fool. You absolute cretin. Stinky.
@notplants 500 boosts that's the most viral thing I've seen on mastodon
@notplants HaHaHa, been there.
My hydroponic spices failure, gardening defeat to nature and "change the world" volunteering burnout
@notplants Noooo! Not clippy. : P
@AceArsenault @notplants I'm actually quite surprised Clippy (or the MS Agent technology in general) hasn't made a comeback with the Generative Autocomplete "AI" hype...
@njsg @notplants I remember being a teenager trying to type something in Microsoft office and not knowing how to close that stupid clippy thing.
@notplants it's well worth the time to study the dark triad personality traits. Great Psychologists on Youtube would be the likes of Dr. Les Carter, Richard Grannon, or Sam Vaknin. Psych2Go is a great channel as well.
It's also worth making sure one doesn't suffer from so-called "Nice-guy syndrome", which many an Open Source geek can fall prey to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AG39mtnvcVY
@notplants I submit they have been largely intractable -because- people keep trying to "solve" them with technologies funded by the people primarily responsible for keeping them entrenched.
@notplants i learned early on as an IT manager in a large company to not try and solve people problems with technology (mostly it was junior managers not wanting to actually manage).
@notplants oh, i needed this when someone complained that internet technology was broken with the symptom being that people online can be assholes and then flamed me when i suggested that maybe the people, not the technology, was to blame.
