Isn’t that every military shooter?

If you’re being perceived a different way than you intend, I find it’s best to simply apologise, explain that what your intention was and clarify what you mean.

It’s not just you that can mistakenly imply, others can mistakenly infer things too; such is the nature of human to human communication. (Considering we’re just a mess of electrical impluses it’s a miracle we can communicate ideas at all tbh)

Just be yourself, apologise and clarify if it comes across incorrectly, learn from the immediate feedback and I feel critically; don’t be trying to keep to guidelines of how you need to behave in a conversation. Be yourself, be in the moment. If you’re trying to micromanage your behaviour in the moment, people will sense that and it’ll put them off.

Just try to lean towards replies that hear the other person and show them kindness, but don’t overthink it on a day to day

Is there a reason you were called a dick? You kind of skimmed over that.

Here’s some go tos:

• Ask follow up questions
• Be kind
• Keep an eye out for signals that they need/want to leave the conversation

I wouldn't touch Meta AI if you paid me

I'm just shocked they pushed it out the door. It's the only major selling point for the iPhone 16 and yet isn't available at launch, and even when it does release is going to be relatively useless

I use GPT daily for discussion and pulling apart ideas but the AppleInt doesnt even have that baked in yet.

Apple is trying to make it more generally useful, but it fails at even the basic things genAI is useful for at this point

Google is absolutely useless now, nothing but SOE farmed rubbish.

It’s become completely unusable.

I’ve moved over to Kagi 100%

It’s well worth the money for the amount of control I have over my experience. Being able to black list, downplay or uplift specific sources is awesome

Tech “journalists” have no idea how to speak about Mastodon or the fediverse.

They seem to think that unless something has billions of users, it’s dead. They can’t even comprehend how people could prefer a smaller more selective userbase

If it’s free, it’s not competing.

If you want to make something, go ahead and build it.

Artists don’t compete with other artists

Any in particular I should look out for?
