    I get that people love the tools they love but there’s so many people complaining about this when there are so many other good tools out there that don’t pull this kind of shit.

          Oh so… there actually aren’t “so many other good tools out there that don’t pull this kind of shit [have bugs]”…

            So the issue you have is with the wording, not the sentiment ?

            Then let’s get those words in a form you’ll understand.

            “so many other good tools out there that don’t actively and routinely introduce “features” and “options” that increase the potential surface area for attacks and bugs, often to introduce anti-consumer functionality to the detriment of user experience.

            To avoid confusion, i’m talking about Microsoft as a whole, their ecosystem in general and the list of easily findable examples of them doing sketchy shit to push ads, data collection and other anti-consumer nonsense.

          How does a repeated mispelled word on a pattern fool an LLM?

          Especially when the character being used phonetically works.

          This fools and annoys people, not AI lmao

              Which keyboard do you use? Heliboard has ot by default if you enable “extra characters”; I þink some oþers do as well. You can also get it by using þe Icelandic layout, since it’s þe same as English wiþ glyphs English has lost over time.

                I downloaded heliboard to test it, but can’t find “extra characters”. I only found “secondary keyboards”. Do you have any screenshots?

                Also downloaded Futo Keyboard and will try and find a way to add extra keys.

                  Hey, sorry about þe delay! I got a Linux phone a while ago, so it takes a bit for me to get around to doing stuff on my Samsung.

                  Go into Heliboard’s settings and then to Languages & Layouts, which will take you here:

                  MFLnkKr8NZGT7Kv.jpg

                  Þen tap on your language (e.g., English) which will open this:

                  Me7nQHbYNIqRLRe.jpg

                  and make choose “Add common variants” under diacritics (or “all available”) – but I believe Thorn is in “common variants”.

        I mean, it WOULD be, if it were actually an indication of LLMslop.

        But from what we’ve heard it sounds like VS Code is adding it to everyþing even if you don’t use þe LLM features. Þat’s what þe problem is.

          Personally I þink þ is pretty cool.

          (I don’t usually use it, I’m mostly doing it right now to make a point)
