As a recent shift-vert to @AskLumo: is there a button for turning off the #sycophancy? I have modified the "style" in the one Project on my free plan. I don't want to include anti-sycophancy prompts with every other inquiry.

It feels yucky to have my ego stroked by a machine, and I don't need it ~ I need clear, objective perspective on my blind spots.

I see this is a "known bug", so consider this my ticket: #global #antisycophancy #settings please.

Ah, the riveting saga of 'JavaScript and cookies'—truly the pinnacle of judicial #drama 🍪🔐. Because nothing screams "legal expertise" like your #browser #settings. 🙄 Maybe next time we'll need to update Flash to read the verdict. 😂

Well, in the #Settings, there are things you can change like #Noise level, #Saturation etc. and I’ve found that turning them down nearly to minimum works for me.

@tezoatlipoca @FuturisticRobert @whatdidmarksay whilst you legally don't "own" content on #Steam, they at least don't steal peoples' games out of their library just because a title got delisted.

  • And besides, Steam turned their #DRM into a convenient option for #Gamers by adding new features like #SteamCloud to sync #Savegames and #Settings to the point that all it's users need to switch devices are their login credentials and enough space to potentially (re-)download games.
    • Compared to all the bullshit re: "activations" with games in the 2000s, #Valve deservedly monopolized the market because none of the #competitiors tried to be better for the #customer!

They just know that people want a frictionless experience and that the features they deliver is a better deal than #piracy, because treating a paying customer with respect and dignity instead of suspicion and anger is more welcoming.

  • Or to pull an analogy from meatspace: You certainly wouldn't shop at a place where instore security are constantly breathing down your neck wanting to pepperspray you the moment they suspect you from not putting an item into neither shopping cart nor back in the shelves and demanding you to undress naked whilst they get to fumble with your clothes to see if you troed to shoplift!?
    • Of course not, you'd propably go out of your way to never even enter said store's premises because that's fuckin' creepy af!

Did someone say Spring Cleaning? We've redesigned the settings pages across Flare to be more consistent, intuitive, and pleasant to use.

Just found out by accident #today that if I plug one screen in one computer with two cables on two different ports, I can have it set up twice with different outputs. That allows you to have two desktops to change between by changing the input of your screen 🤯

I haven't thought of a useful application for this yet, but then I don't use regular virtual desktops either. Even so, I think it's kinda cool
