A stray "J" I encountered years ago: a certain client's support tickets would often end with a single "J", which was a little confusing as it was not one of their name initials. After a brief investigation, the original email source contained this:

    <font face="Wingdings">J</font>

Which renders as a smiley face.

An alternative to the paste commands is vipe (vi + pipe?) from moreutils which opens an $EDITOR that returns the contents once saved and closed.

It helps with pasting special chars, newlines, and remote sessions without access to the local clipboard.

    secret=$(vipe)
    echo "$secret"

I owned an Alienware laptop (M17X R4) many years ago that had a dedicated HDMI input.

It was a strange laptop. MXM socketed GPU, 120Hz screen that came with Nvidia 3DVision shutter glasses, and the worst battery life I've ever experienced.

There is some help text when clicking on the current goal amount:

> If an organiser turns on automated goal setting, GoFundMe adjusts their goal automatically based on the fundraiser’s characteristics and performance. You can see the goal history if GoFundMe has ever made automatic updates.

> To help the organiser reach their goal, we start them at a lower goal and adjust it as donations come in.

The most obvious downside for me was remote terminal windows (e.g. using ttyd) being unusable because canvas rendering was "broken".

But the AI should not have learned to apply a Gaussian deconvolution kernel. If anything it should be applying a lens-based bokeh kernel instead. A true lens blur does not behave like a Gaussian blur.
