just nuke notepad in favor of zen-mode vscode. It has everything you want from text editor and it does it quite well

> It feels like someone changed the keyboard to optimize for some typing behavior that doesn't match my own

I want the keyboard to work the following way -- after I press the button: 1. Letter that I pressed (not a random one) appears 2. Instantly

iOS keyboard somehow fails both. I have no idea what "typing behavior" can you optimize for to end up like this

Any real recent examples of this, specifically in Abu Dhabi or Dubai?

> makes a thermos great at keeping your drink hot

Thermos has 2 parts responsible for thermal isolation: vacuum and some coating that reflects heat radiation

Also in earth conditions, most of thermal radiation goes to surrounding air, heating it. This is not the case with vacuum, so thermal radiation will be even more efficient

I think it's much simpler: smart mass surveillance. With LLMs you can finally read and analyze all messages people send to each other

What a coincidence: "protect the children" narrative got amplified right about when implementing profiling became needed for openai profits. Pure magic

New comment by nurumaik in "X blames users for Grok-generated CSAM; no fixes announced"

nurumaik — Mon, 05 Jan 2026 21:57:26 +0000

If you ban grok, people will generate using unlocked open chinese models

Also, this always existed in one form or another. Draw, photoshop, imagine, discuss imaginary intercourse with popular person online or irl

It's not worthy of intervention because it will happen anyway and it doesn't fundamentally change much

Example from this article looks more like "unspecified" behavior rather than "undefined". Title made me expect nasal demons, now I'm a bit disappointed
