@stavvers not one of the latest refugees, but...
-spec should relate to ability to make it fairer, like a golfing handicap or excessive drinking in darts.
maybe the highest current trophy the player has forms the basis of their "ass-assist" or maybe an inverse of their current world ranking as diameter (inches for Americans, cm for those who understand them)?
-crisps depend on season, beverage, levels of hydration, sunshine and the amount of available time to consume. Bacon Frazzles, basically.

Right now if you search for "country in Africa that starts with the letter K":
- DuckDuckGo will link to an alphabetical list of countries in Africa which includes Kenya.
- Google, as the first hit, links to a ChatGPT transcript where it claims that there are none, and summarizes to say the same.
This is because ChatGPT at some point ingested this popular joke:
"There are no countries in Africa that start with K."
"What about Kenya?"
"Kenya suck deez nuts?"
Google Search is over.

Nice planet sphere though, and an excellent foghorn.
@Richard_Littler I utterly refute this. Your own offspring have an ability to both delight and frustrate intensely. Sometimes mere seconds apart.

This cartoon hits hard.
It hits even harder when you notice the 2007 publication date in the lower right corner.

what LLMs effectively do is reduce ‘infinite monkeys with infinite typewriters’ to about a hundred monkeys and you have to choose which monkey you think is the best
