'all the other ai labs want you to cower in fear at their torment nexus' well put
regarding the first question once you get your mind out of the gutter you'll realize claude has the best branding out of all the llms. the hand-drawn scribbly gvc style makes using it a lot less intimidating, different from how all the other ai labs want you to cower in fear at their torment nexus.

every year I end up coincidentally trying out yet another new nominally-not-Polish-cuisine restaurant in rural Poland and now I'm so done with them. They all taste Polish (derogatory)

Spending Christmas at home and having lots of discussions with my dad. Both of us extol 'liberalism', but we could not differ more in online anonymity. He finds it objectionable that people can post nonsense anonymously. While for me that defines liberty in the 21st century

Just because a workaround exists now, doesn't mean that it will continue to exist – often one can already clearly imagine how a determined state or platform owner could close all reasonable workarounds if it came to it

Polish sentences come in two flavours. Either 'owies :3' 'a to to co :3', or WSTRZĄŚNIJ PRZED OTWARCIEM
at first I thought that this Polish oat milk 'English is so cool let's use it in branding' thing said 'owies :3'
