God, no! I'm long past essay writing! I trained it for a work thing. An intellectual exercise, let's say.

I've managed to train an AI model to write in a way that fools such detection tools into thinking copy is 99%-100% written by a human. Once you learn how to game the system, nothing is impossible. Or put simpler, if you can make it, you can break it. (Not that I'm advocating for deception, mind.)

Pretty certain some legal thing got put in place several years ago to prevent him from earning ANY royalties. I'd need to check ... it's been a while. 😁

ROLES are different, but Reeves is wooden as a wardrobe in both. Mainly a dialogue issue. Physically, his acting varies (within limits). But he delivers lines like he's reading from a script. And his emotional range – if you can call it that – is very narrow. Yet, I love both franchises nonetheless!

Clicky keyboard keys can fuck off. I've spent 25 years avoiding keyboards where the typing experience isn't close to silent. I don't do my job in a 1950s typing pool! I also don't have a standard method of touch typing – which is probably why quiet keys don't cause me any wrist injuries.

Predictable cat haters rushing in with their wrong-headed assumptions about the bonds possible between felines and humans. Come see me and my many moggies. I'll dispel your myths about cupboard love and selfish indifference in a single afternoon. 🙄
