I mentioned to someone that I ask ChatGPT things all the time and they were like, "Don't you know it doesn't actually know facts? It just spews bullshit that sounds plausible."

The joyous thing for me is that's why I'm using it: To generate plausible sounding nonsense for dungeons and dragons. That, to me, has been one of the biggest use cases for me. Name generation is fantastic through it. "List 10 suggestions for epic sounding names for a tavern built into a cliffside in a deep elven rain forest" and then work shopping it from there.

As a programmer, I also make pretty consistent use of GitHub Copilot... Because half of programming is boiler plate that LLMs are really good at generating. Super useful for explaining what kind of statically defined array I want without having to type out the whole thing myself. Or, and I think this is my favorite use, any time I need to translate from one data format to another, just describing my input and my desired output gets me a great starting point that I can refine.

But asking them for facts? Nah lol

Obvious answer is to do both: A VM of a Linux desktop skinned to look like Windows XP

Sounds like "feelz" measuring to me

I recently got a phone that charges at 65W, from empty to full in 30 minutes. It's at least getting better all the time, I'd say
