For some reason this didn’t work at the time. I needed to change the uid and it still ran into some active processes after. Probably user error, but who knows.

no need for task manager

Not me typing kill ### twenty two times to kill all the processes of a specific user because I couldn’t get the bulk commands to get them all.

Every comment you make is being stored on hundreds of hard drives, I bet you can guess how ethical the entire process of creating those was.

Better not continue, otherwise you might continue participating in unethical consumption.

You care too much over something that is so significantly unimpactful.

Who cares? Who makes a new account just to ask this sort of leading question?

Barring terrible company policy, those people who can’t do more than allow the AI to think for them will find themselves out of a job pretty quickly if they can’t do the work themselves.

Bad employees and stupid people will always be stupid, the newest tech isn’t the cause of that. Maybe it lowers the bar of entry a bit?

Lastly, you’re clearly gatekeeping “the ability to critically think” based on some arbitrary conditions you made up based on “how things used to be”, so to speak. Maybe you could have used your superior boomer wisdom to figure that one out.

This is some boomer-tier gatekeeping and just another “back in my day, things were better because…”

The people who aren’t problem solving beyond typing something into a chat bot are the same people who wouldn’t have done so before the chat bot existed.

You can absolutely find similar complaints about the internet being invented, or search engines, or any other technological expansion in the past entire human history.

Whenever copilot tells me I can’t do something I tell it how much I think Microsoft is a bunch of losers for the restrictions they’ve put in.

It doesn’t solve anything but I feel a little better after.
