Thank you for your reply.

I have already implemented manual valves that are activated by clicking on the body.

If there is no easy solution for automated testing, I will have to continue testing manually. Fortunately, it is not a very extensive application.

In English am, is, are and their mother (be from which or from her am are is come) are followed by names, adjectives and adverbs:

I am a robot, he is a human being, she is a woman.
I am happy, he is intelligent, they are lucky.
I am here, he is away, she is abroad etc.

but when we talk about actions and deeds  we use verbs:

I speak, I do speak, I don't speak English well.
He knows, he knows that well, he doesn't know.
They know, they don't know, they do the work.

Ackshooly, to me that's not a fail, it's a good observation.

There's not a thread for that though...  :(

My understanding of describing that a lot of the users on the forum do not have English as their first language is done with not being a "native English speaker" and not with "principle language", but what do I know as I'm not a native English speaker.

The Merriam Webster explanation of the two, to me, does not show it to be correct use of principle in the above.

For graphical art we are a way's off from a prompter to be able to produce content with a fresh and consistent style, they can only produce slop consistently.

The number of proper artists who use genning as a force multiplier are limited. It's a bit distasteful, the only way they could learn how is to have started classically ... but now they are destroying the ladder they climbed up on, with tools which took all its training material from their colleagues without compensation.

hey! sounds like programming / writing / filming / making music / insert any other craft

We are talking about the picture magic showed us, right?
There are old bulky PNP transistors at the inputs: lateral, no fine structures.

People are allergic to “AI.” It already became a cultural thing, even a part of self-presentation, group identity, or belonging or elitist attitudes. As all similar situations, completely disconnected from both technical aspects and any deeper insight into consequences. And as it is in other cases like that, almost universally a proxy war over very different things.

Ah, that makes sense.  So it's sort of like metalheads, goths, etc vs. "poseurs" (= anyone insufficiently like us), and AI in this case is playing the role of the poseurs.
