How does Apple’s spunk taste
You sure dropped down to your knees to suck off Apple

Ironic this comment reads like you didn’t even grok the basics of the issue if you think open source licensing is the source of confusion.

See lots of comparisons to Ansible but Chef/puppet (both of which have agent-less modes) in Python instead of Ruby is what immediately came to mind. I guess Salt as well technically.
> I think it can sort of make sense for some people who sort of listen to music as a background noise

This is a whole genre of music in of itself that real people created which AIs were trained on stolen copies of to produce slop that doesn’t have to compensate the origins.

So it only makes sense in that case if you think slop derived from real art is awesome and that actual human beings can get fucked.

It’s nice you’re comfortable outing yourself as a freak who reads and agrees with the Protocols of the Elder Zion.
You couldn’t waterboard this sort of confession out of me. Imagine proclaiming publicly that you have zero-taste and only consume AI slop

I guess all those copyeditors can get fucked, right?

First they came for the stock Android users, and I did not speak out for I was not a stock Android user.
> For me personally, I don't really know. You can't just do the same thing because the economy is constantly evolving, but I can't see where it's going.

Neither does your CEO

Considering it happens across both opencode and other apps like Claude and Codex as well as across models it seems like something inherent to the models themselves and not necessarily a bug in the apps wrapping them. But maybe there’s more opencode et. al could be doing to prevent it.
It’s open source so you can put together that CLI yourself if so motivated
You’re not alone, I’ve absolutely seen the same behavior occasionally with Opus in OpenCode where it takes actions it shouldn’t be able to in plan mode.
“Plan” vs “execute” modes seem more like suggestions the models _mostly_ follow. I have absolutely had models (Codex and Sonnet/Opus) perform actions in plan mode they should never have been able to take like editing files or starting to work on a plan that was just created.
LLMs write like that because people write like that. That they used the rhetorical device three times in a row in a single paragraph makes me think it’s less likely to be LLM and just how that person writes.
Their reaction is perfectly proportional

“Borderline unusable” is such a hyperbolic way to describe a fully functional design that doesn’t happen to be responsive. Hacker News must be borderline unusable for you as well then, no?

Explain the difference.

See? You weren’t even over 50! Young whippersnappers…

Just like you can run `git add -p`

It took you 12 years to grok git?? Embarrassing.

You’re shocked they don’t want to hang around Nazis. So you’re either incredibly stupid or don’t think Nazis are bad.

Musk is a giant piece of shit who turned Twitter into a cesspool worse than 4chan and is arguing in court that he should be allowed to use grok to generate CSAM.

So yeah they’re absolutely right to get the fuck out of the place he destroyed.

Re:EFF is leaving X on Friday April 10, 2026 @10:56PM (#47726865)
The EFF has every right to gtfo a site that’s become a Nazi cesspool

You are a bigot hiding behind pretend “support”. You don’t support them and would rather you never had to think of anyone unlike yourself.

Be for real, he took a selfie with the leader of a country actively involved in genocide. You don’t do that if you don’t implicitly agree.

More bullshit justifications to defend the indefensible, gross.

Bullshit justifications for bullshit decisions.
