D-pad for me, functionally, is a 4 directional buttons clustered together, oriented along the X-Y axis. To conserve parts, it’s quite often made not as 4 buttons but as a combined shifter, because you realistically wouldn’t be pressing the opposite buttons at the same time.
The left track area on the steam controller is that. The buttons are fuzed together (which is normal for D-pad) and big and harder to tell apart (which is less normal)

I didn’t say it was a good d-pad

It’s actually the other way around, it’s a big d-pad with touchpad capabilities plastered over it. It’s the same physical mechanism as a d-pad, 4-way button, it’s just big.

Left trackpad is also a d-pad though

The left touch zone is pressable, and four zones are four separate buttons. It’s a bit less convenient to use than a regular d-pad, it’s bigger and you need to reach slightly further, but other than that it works.

The touch zone is the d-pad, it’s pressable and you don’t need to do anything, just use it regularly

It actually has d-pad, it’s just combined with one of the touch areas, you can press it like a button, and 4 zones behave like a d-pad. Granted, it’s a bit inconvenient so if you need it often, it’s not the best. But it’s there.

Did the autocomplete told you to answer this? Don’t answer, actually, save some energy.

Lawns aren’t the problem but they are a problem

You probably wanted to show off how smart you are, but instead you showed that you can’t even talk to people without help of your favourite slop bucket.
It didn’t answer my curiosity about what came first, but it solidified my conviction that your brain is cooked all the way, probably beyond repair. I would say you need to seek professional help, but at this point you would interpret it as needing to talk to the autocomplete, and it will cook you even more.
It started funny, but I feel very sorry for you now, and it sucked all the humour out.

Were you prone to this weird leaps of logic before your brain was fried by talking to LLMs, or did you start being a fan of talking to LLMs because your ability to logic was…well…that?

The person who uses fancy autocomplete to write their code will be exactly the person who thinks they’re better than everyone. Those traits are correlated.

Keep doing what you do. Your company will pay me handsomely to throw out all your bullshit and write working code you can trust when you’re done. If your company wants to have a product in the future that is.

Anti-murder laws are cuttailing my choice! What if I someday would like to make a choice to murder someone?

You’re acting like the most “well acsually” person ever. You see the word “never” and don’t understand that people routinely use this word colloquially not to literally mean “there was zero cases in history of humanity”. Maybe they shouldn’t do that, maybe people should use “almost never” to mean “almost never”, but they aren’t.
If you want to engage with meaning of what the person you’re arguing was saying, instead of hanging up on a technical usage of the word, their point was that sensationalist media and crazy usually religiously motivated groups love misunderstanding teenagers stupid humour, and making a big panic out of basically nothing. All the kids who really physically put tide pods in their mouths even for a second for a stupid video, can fit into one short bus. But the panic around it was so widespread, you could get an impression that everyone is popping them like tic tacs. That is a classic example of a moral panic.

You don’t understand, kids are really summoning satan with their dungeons and dragons books, and every grown up should be very threatened about it!

It’s not given in the UK either. At least they still have the ability to challenge that.

You could absolutely go to prison for it. A group of people in an unmarked van can grab you, send you to a prison in your country or even somewhere else, where you will be tortured possibly to death, and even if there will be an international fuss about it, nobody will ever do anything about it.
There is no more laws in your country, none.
