Comment The additional costs (Score 1) 50

Each time I ask ChatGPT a research question, it answers with the fucking oval button links that cannot be copy/pasted so I have again to tell it to lose those and replace them with raw html links.
Then I have to tell it what raw html links means and to drop the ChatGPT hints in the links.
Then I have to tell it to lose the fucking em-dashes that I absolutely hate.
And so on, it has my memory file stating all this, but it never checks it.
So usually the 5th time is the charm.
And ChatGPT complains that saying 'thank you' costs them millions?

Comment I can see that (Score 5, Funny) 59

Silicon Valley officers, fresh from their LinkedIn bios and skipping boot camp, take command of a recon drone unit.

Captain Elonson insists on managing the unit via Slack.
Troop alerts go unread because someone accidentally muted the “combat-updates” channel.

The platoon’s position is compromised when Lieutenant Zuckstein checks Facebook from the field, triggering geolocation metadata. Hamas thanks him in the comments.

Meanwhile, their cybersecurity officer deploys an AI that auto-optimizes comms by summarizing encrypted orders as “TL;DR: Go west?” The unit goes east.

Their supply request for ammo is sent via a Jira ticket. It’s marked “low priority” by a Google intern in logistics.

They initiate a drone strike by voice command, but Siri misunderstands “engage target” as “update Target”, and a shipment of smart toasters is delivered to enemy coordinates.

Final report:
“Operation failed due to cloud sync errors, poor UI, and an unfortunate TikTok livestream entitled ‘Drone Squad Goes Brrr.’”

You'll still be able to see where you're going but the glasses will beautify the scenery, showing homeless people as nice potted plants, pee-stains of walls as art, graffiti becomes commissioned murals, overflowing bins appear as quirky street installations, boarded-up windows turn into chic cafés, broken pavements get overlaid with cobblestone charm, potholes become koi ponds, traffic cones morph into abstract sculptures, smoggy skies are replaced with sunsets, police tape becomes festive bunting, and rats are rendered as cute animatronic pets.
Even shouting drunks are re-skinned as passionate street poets performing live.
