Flavoured Pickles10th June 2025
I wonder if it was a proper ''Koolickle''? I accidentally bought some sweet pickles and I usually get kosher dill. These are awful I don't know how people eat this stuff - very gross flavor with a taste of clove or something... |

Generally there is a sensitivity setting and I set it to something like five pixels.It would be very poorly implemented if there was no sensitivity setting... |

We hit 93 degrees Freedom in Montana. :)Central air is one thing I've never regretted paying for. Apparently in Germany they just boil to death. :( |

The new design has stripped out an entire layer of information for quick differentiation.We ditched labeled icons. (one layer stripped out) We now ditched color. (another layer stripped out) Chasing design and simplicity leads to this degradation. I&#*snip* |

ChatGPT acting weird?9th June 2025
It's gone through various phases.At one point it was overly critical. Then it became too casual. Now it's treating the user like a genius. My guess is that they're trying to tweak the human element of it all to get the most buy-in. |

As far as aesthetics go though I really enjoyed Mac OS when they had the scroll bars that looked like shiny teal lozenges. The clickables for the most part looked clickable. |

I think UI is in such a bad state that AI is being leaned on to actually find what would have been a simple task prior. It all started going downhill with Google's ''material'' design. Minimalism for the sake of minimalism at the cost of easy d*snip* |

Happy to hear you're okay! I suppose it's better to go through a life-threatening event and find out you have an allergy than to be exposed in a less ideal situation. |

You can borrow it from the Internet Archive if you've got an account there. (It's like a virtual library).They do prohibit copyrighted works being just downloaded however. The CD might come down to the other local interloan route... (Linkage)*snip* |
