"A collective name for ancient species that are not human and are typically considered evil by human civilizations of the Seventh Age. They arrived at the dawn of time, under unclear circumstances. Since the Second Age, they have been involved with varying intensity in various wars between species, fought partly against each other and partly against other species. Since the Third Age, their largest groups have been forced underground or underwater. However, their power does not lie in their numbers—the human races and other descendant species far surpass them in this respect—but in their natural magical abilities, their proficiency in ancient magic, and the knowledge and experience gained from their immeasurable age."

Internet Explorer all over again...they never learn. Edge was the last thing that pushed me away from Microsoft. The constant new - privacy invading - features, frickin' widgets and ad-filled home-screen-tab-thing.

I would go offline but never retire from tech, I would miss music terribly. I would also move all my ebooks over to an e-reader and that's it. If I can live somewhere offline with my music player and e-reader that's fine.

It is great! I asked the question what I always ask of new models ("what would Ian M Banks think about the current state of AI") and it gave me a brilliant answer! Funny enough the answer contained multiple criticisms of his own creators ("Chinese state entities", "Social Credit System").

Cursor is so good for what I do is that I've cancelled my Cursor subscription and went back to VSCode (w/o Copilot) for the diff review and code navigation.
