So did it actually give you a config file? And did it work or fail?

If it didn't give you a config file I really don't understand why your followup wasn't getting it to spit one out, and instead you decided to ask it questions about an obviously fake laptop.

Yes, it did give a file and a bunch of steps but saddly the file did not work. It had whitespace/formatting issues and then general misconfiguration issues once I resolved the formatting.

  • Segue - I've used Copilot a couple of times recently and in lots of code output it uses non-ASCII space characters in the code so when you copy-paste working code it still won't work. It's like a practical joke, designed to annoy ... I really can't understand why that would not be immediately fixed. It's very much what one expects of Microsoft, however. Utter insanity.

  • So how did the LLM not notice when it ran it on his laptop?

    We're gonna see this a lot in the future, human beings that gaslight with LLMs other human beings.
