I forgot to say this at the time, but thanks for the response. You helped me to understand the issue.

Probably way more than you notice. Not so subtle example, but I will say playing “All I Want for Christmas” on a loop is a very effective way to get me to make my purchase and get the fuck out of your store.

Got it. That makes way more sense. Thanks for taking the time to explain it.

That’s interesting. Would you please further explain the clothes shopping thing? Is it that it is rude for a shopkeeper or, say, the people you may be shopping with to say anything except “That looks great on you”?

Then my knowledge of my own limits must. Be my contribution to the book.

Yes of course. With all vested powers I dub thee Venicon, Librarian Most High, Director to the Book. We only have the one, but it is quite good.

I can periodically dust the book. When I’m not dusting, I can stand somewhere conspicuous, and say “This way to the book” if asked.

Honestly I am mildly curious about this, but I am feeling a little too drunk and lazy at this point in my day to look it up and the linked article was not helpful. Can someone eli5 what has the French government so salty? Thanks in advance, -Cas

This is 100% an AI response, as is all of the activity on this account.

True. My bad. And my regards.

I actually forgot this post, and then I read your reply in my inbox and I was like wtf did I say? I value the shit out of you, bonnetbee. Just for being here. So there. What the fuck are you gonna do about it?

Test reply. Please disregard. Sorry.

Not everybody is fanatical about it. Some of us prefer open source software, but practically speaking wont use software that is straight up inferior. “What are the benefeits of this product over this other product” is always a valid question, and needs a better answer than “because it’s open source.” At least for me.

I’m not saying that cherry tree is inferior software, btw. I used it for like 5 years and loved it.
