You’re absolutely right, but that’s the pre-smartphone era, not the pre-cellphone era.

Ok, I have an experiment for you. Go touch some really hot chili peppers, then wash you hands. With soap. Three times, if you like. Then rub your eyes. Then tell me that felt absolutely fine. Go ahead, I’ll wait.

Capsaicin is non-soluble in water and basically doesn’t wash off.

DLSS has no application in AI, though, so that point is not really valid here.

Again this fake quote? I know it’s justa mindless copy-and-paste, but at least put it into context. Marx never wrote that. Here’s page 651 of the Moore translation, and here’s a discussion of the origin of that quote.

Ich wollte das auch gerade posten, aber: https://vorwaerts.de/geschichte/wer-hat-uns-verraten-sozialdemokraten-woher-kommt-der-ruf

Macht das Lied nicht unwahr, aber man sollte schon die Hintergründe kennen.

It’s called Hessen, though, with an n.

Inhaltlich sowieso, klar, gut dass wir da einer Meinung sind. Und der zweite Punkt: Ok, hatte ich so nicht wahrgenommen - das ist dann ja die gleiche Kritik wie meine an dir, dem kann ich mich kaum verweigern.

Die CDU ist doof und sich an der AfD zu orientieren ist doof, aber anderen Leuten aufgrund geringfügiger Rechtschreibfehler mangelnde Schulbildung vorzuwerfen (zumal wenn drei der fünf Wiederholungsfehler sind, selbst wenn es Fehler wären), ist kleingeistig.

Wenn es sein muss, finde ich in deinem Post mindestens zwei Grammatik- und Satzfehler. Aber wie gesagt, auf das Niveau sollte man sich nicht begeben. Es gibt an der CDU genug andere Dinge zu kritisieren.

(Edit: klar, schon mal einen eigenen Fehler gefunden und korrigiert.)

The place where I did my internship many years ago had a poster that was literally just black text on white background saying “Good work, pleased customers, more commissions”. I can hardly put into words how motivated I was.

Ok, für medizinische Zwecke laufen sie ja schon ab, weil sie irgendwann (= Ablaufdatum) nicht mehr steril sind. Aber klar, man könnte sie auch intern nichtmedizinisch weiterverwenden.

Zumal es natürlich vollkommener Blödsinn ist, dass Masken ablaufen. Man hätte sie mindestens verschenken können,

I still don’t see how this is an argument for “I do not want to learn.”

Because this is just one thing that you clearly know how to do and probably enjoy.

I don’t know how many of the following things you are good at and enjoy, but the same argument applies to all of them: cooking, knitting, repairing a car, welding, growing crops. All of these are desirable and apply to things that most of us use regularly. But you just cannot expect everyone to learn them all in order to enjoy the products they could create or enhance by them. It is not problematic to say you just want to use something and not learn everything that is necessary to create or master it.

If you cannot see that this is true of a CLI, then I have run out of ways to try to explain it to you.

Just for the record, these are not the same questions you asked in your first post. But to answer them: nothing is different about this. But at some people don’t want to keep learning how to use stuff, they want to start using it. And there’s a difference between “learn how to use a new vacuum cleaner” (to give a particularly obvious example) and “learn how to use a completely new paradigm that is different from everything you have used before and doesn’t have a clear starting point”. (And before you say that the first steps are easy, let me rename all commands in your CLI and see how quickly you find out how to read a man page.)

Mind you, I’m not talking about myself, having used CLIs since the 80s, but just because I know how to do something doesn’t mean it should be a fun activity for everyone.

It’s not, though. Tying a command doesn’t take a lot of time, but learning what commands are useful in a specific situation does. Even “ls -la” is an achievement you need experience for. And it doesn’t help that if you get stuck and ask (around here or in other enlightened circles) the answer you receive is usually some variant of “Have you read the 40-screen man page?”

Just to clarify: Germany is sending 13 people to survey the defensive situation in Greenland.
