A place to share screenshots of Microblog posts, whether from Mastodon, tumblr, ~~Twitter~~ X, KBin, Threads or elsewhere.

Created as an evolution of White People Twitter and other tweet-capture subreddits.

RULES:

  1. Your post must be a screen capture of a microblog-type post that includes the UI of the site it came from, preferably also including the avatar and username of the original poster. Including relevant comments made to the original post is encouraged.
  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
  6. Absolutely no NSFL content.
  7. Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.
  8. No advertising, brand promotion, or guerrilla marketing.

Wait, You're telling me it redoes all of the prompts every time you open the document. That's such a bad way of doing it this borderline criminal.

they can't be THAT stupid, right? Right?

Imagine doing 30000 requests to a server in a different continent just to open the file and then close it immediately "oops, it's not what i was searching"

I did some digging. Apparently people are already raising eyebrows at the fact that it produces non-reproducible results, so much so that the official documentation says this:

The COPILOT function's model will evolve and improve in the future and formula results may change over time, even with the same arguments. Only use the COPILOT function where this is acceptable. If you don't want results to recalculate, consider converting them into values with Copy, Paste Values (select values, Ctrl + C, Ctrl + Shift + V).

...This is a note buried in the official help file. Gee gosh ding dilly damn I hope the people who use this function read the docs thorougly, just like they have done through the entire history of computing.

"Consider converting th-" [beer through her nose] CONSIDER???!? THIS IS A PRETTY CRUCIAL STEP.

They should apply the Balatro Misprint joker's visual effect on all of the cells affected by this function. To signal the users that they've entered the Undecidability Zone. Where Gödel only went in Thursdays and 8-10 Polynesian time in Tuesdays (subject to change).
