Raised on dial-up. Shaped by Morrowind and 20-sided dice. I lift heavy, think hard, and miss when the internet felt like a world—not a billboard.
I’ve been moderating tech conferences for a couple of years now and this is the use case case that’s been bubbling up the most recently. A lot of “this is the future of how we will interact with the web” or “let’s ditch having to search for things ourselves, let’s just ask the propmt to give us the answer”.
I see a lot of frontend developers promoting things like LangFlow to “push UI/UX into the future”.
This is disturbing.

Yeah, they are bad 😅
Oh damn, I had no idea! I’ll look into that <3
Oh my god, fam! That’s such a deep cut! Love that game!! <3
This lady right here.
After reading the post and sifting through the comments I had this realization, that’s probably more about advertising than anything else, I guess, but… Don’t you find it strange that in the last few years, there’s a non-zero number of people who stumble upon an article like this, on lemmy, out of all places, and think “I didn’t even know that existed, yet, it’s very obvious that enough people use it for it to make headlines”? Is it just me? 🤔
Damn, that’s bleak…
What’s wrong with just a regular mattress? Why does it have to be connected to the internet? :(
It’s a love letter ❤
Came here to say the same thing.
Holy shit. I think this is the best comment I have ever read in my entire life. I’ve been complaining about the exact same things to my IRL peers and they all think I’m nuts for having these “beliefs”. Especially the one about recycling.
Are we soulmates!? I lived and breathed Morrowind too! I’ve got Kirkbride’s concept art tattooed all over my body, hehe.
