@europlus @thomasfuchs @db Ah, clearly I am behind on this story…

@zachery_delong @thomasfuchs “They” seems to be doing a lot of work in that sentence.

I suppose this could be a case of malicious compliance, though, by people forced to use a chatbot for everything – a cry for help.

@fahrni thank you for that link. i was wondering how Tim was involved with any of this @thomasfuchs

@thomasfuchs literally yesterday I found that domain (learn.microsoft.com) and out of curiosity just clicked: in the first second I got a vídeo with an AI generated character, and closed that tab. Enshittification at its best.

@thomasfuchs yeah.... we think it's like fashion, people who see it may appreciate it in passing but it's only really worth the effort if it also makes us happy to do

[ireneista@adhd.irenes.space]

@thomasfuchs since clearly it isn't going to be rewarded in conventional ways, heh sigh

@nygl @thomasfuchs

I think it's a haiku and they wanted to stretch the sillable count so they made up a word. It's a mood thing, a-la jabberwocky.

Bugfix from rel, branch

@bplein @thomasfuchs as you can see, Tirm is the time traveler going back in the git history.

[h_offen@nrw.social]

@thomasfuchs first time I committed the feedback form over there. Like really, wtf‽ Hopefully it will be read by an actual person not another stupid micro$lop AI agent.

[gunstick@mastodon.opencloud.lu]

@elithebearded @lmorchard @thomasfuchs from rnicrosoft we learned that his name is Tirm

@thomasfuchs if I were @nvie I'd partner up with an attorney specialised in copyright and sue the f**k out of them
