Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

[Ryujin]

I wish for an ignore feature that also hides posts responding to a person I have blocked. And one that auto blocks both people when there is a long train of back and forth involving only them that runs on for pages.

Let’s get those AI tools doing something actually helpful!

Rather surprisingly, I think that I ran into an appropriate use of AI yesterday. With the current tariff situation Canada Post has taken to having taxes and duties being paid up front, to avoid having shipments refused by the recipient. There's now a (third party?) app that is used to prepay those fees. With just one picture it recognized not only that the item was a holster but also that it was hand made, leather, and had hand tooling. I say this is an appropriate use because the workload has been significantly increased, through no fault of their own, and they've dealt with it without just overworking the existing employees. There are still times that human intervention is needed, so those people aren't now unemployed.

That's dedication. According to other stories I've read about this guy and his game, they've been using a modified version of AD&D 2E since it came out.

I think I saw him talk about his game at Gen Con a few years ago and I'm happy for him but it did not sound like my cup of tea at all.
