I'm disqualifying the peanut butter chocolate due to my peanut allergy. Out of the rest the cherry cordial is easily the worst.

The BNC has called a consumer boycott of Microsoft including Xbox, and games made by Microsoft subsidiaries like Minecraft, Call of Duty, Bethesda games, etc
BDS has several "levels" of target. Microsoft is listed as a "pressure target", which is clarified on this page as:
As a consumer, boycott Microsoft products whenever possible.
So if you must e.g. use Teams for school, use Windows at work, etc, that is allowed, but where possible avoid Microsoft products.
Also worth noting that BDS explicitly calls for consumers to move away from Microsoft operating systems and towards FOSS:
[In a list of things to boycott] Microsoft Operating System, Office Suit, Browser, Search services and other tools (Microsoft Edge, Microsoft Bing, MSN, Teams, Skype etc.). Consider switching free and open software instead of another, possibly complicit company.

Disability is not a punishment, but I think the world would be genuinely improved if every person involved in writing or regulating ingredient labels was mysteriously inflicted with at least one food allergy falling under each of the following categories: "natural flavors," "modified food starch," "artificial flavors," "spices," and "color." Down with ingredient labels so vague that they defeat the entire fucking point.
If you don't have food allergies or other dietary restrictions, imagine you noticed that everything you buy at the grocery store had added "glunk" to its ingredient label, so you looked up what "glunk" was, and the first result was like: "Regulating agencies allow various food additives to be labeled as 'glunk.' The two most common types of glunk are delicious nutritious dietary fiber, and plutoniium-238."

In House of Leaves, Navidson spends huge chunks of the book stuck in his home, while in Homestuck, John leaves the house almost immediately. Really makes you think.

do not joke about the advertisements, do not engage with the advertisements in witty fashions, do not, fucking, mention the contents of the advertisements. as soon as an advertisement enters your mind, you kill it, dont care how cute it is, take it out back and shoot it. install adblock, ublock, mute the volume, look away, turn off the monitor, cover your ears, paint over it. evolve your mind, your modality, your instincts, to disregard the stimuli of advertisements before you can even process it. whatever it takes, you do not let them win. and thats an order.

I really want us to get to the point in the hype cycle where we realize that LLMs are a probabilistic query engine over Web-scale text corpora and not, like, the foundation for the Kurzweilian computer god that will invent computronium and live forever by replacing all matter with computronium
