Shall we now impute dishonor on all those whose past writing cannot pass an AI examination? Do we start with Isaac Asimov, Carl Sagan, George Gamow, Michio Kaku, ...?

WordPad was good for this on Windows - maybe too good.
AbiWord looked like it might be similar on Linux, but never kept up.

It hasn't been updated for about 8 years, but it doesn't require installation and we have found it very useful.
We need to break this pattern of kinetic weapons.
How about some modern, safe bio-weapons.
This is not a retraction. It is just CYA - Cover your Arse Technica.
They need to enumerate the specific details they fudged.

A Data Center is a Crypto Miner in disguise. Understand that fact, and you understand the future.
This saved me a lot of money! After checking the price, I bought a new broom, mop and a bucket.
Maybe he needs a new, low cost supplier?
