  1. I'm sorting some music that was named and published in Chinese originally, and ooh boy how all the titles vary depending on the source.

    Starting with the first item in the collection - the first album by the Kelly Chen Wai-lam:
    - in the files it is named "Drunk Sensation"
    - on Wikipedia - "Intoxicated Lover (醉迷情人)"
    - on Discogs simply "醉迷情人"

    - On Google Translate that's "Intoxicating Lover".
    - On deepl with Cantonese - "Drunk On Love" and with Chinese - "Drunken Lover" (also "Drunk In Love" and "Intoxicated Lover"

    I guess I'd follow Discogs and rename all directories into Chinese.

  7. You clearly know how to use your Shift key, as you capitalized "OpenAI" *and* "Google" in the middle of your sentence, but somehow you "forgot" how to do so at the *beginning* of all your sentences? Each and every one? I don't think so... you lazy shit.

    Capitalization is important for clarity of communication. It's not there to steal your precious life away by making you hit an extra key. Oh my gawd, the EFFORT required! The TIME invested! How *DARE* I?

    And don't *even* try to tell me it's a "style".
