we had a (creative) writing workshop once where they said “write the worst possible dialogue you can!” with the idea that then we would read them back, and it’d be stuff like “I love you! I’d die for you!” “But you killed for me - that’s horrible!” etc and they’d point out it wasn’t actually that bad with a few tweaks and a good performance.
I kinda saw that coming so I wrote stuff like,
“Zbijgl, my old fart, my favmamort n n n n number is 183442356742255214676213566873225566333543”
“But my cat food is singing, it goes anganganganganganganganganganga”
and they were forced to concede that yes, it is possible to write truly bad dialogue.
I mildly disagree. I think its an interesting discussion.
thank is man
plagiarism implies a benefit to the plunderer, though. It’s perfectly legal to take images from the internet for your own use - e.g. a sonic the hedgehog themed birthday party for a kid.

3·2 days agoprogrammers perform labor tho, and rely on physical supply chains (computers, data centers, networks, keyboards, chairs, screens) to do their labor.
programmers also cannot operate without collaboration and cannot bring their labor to market for a return without payment processing, publishers, distribution networks and marketing.
paracelcus my beloved!
