Thank you #autocorrupt for correcting “skillset” to “skillet.” Apparently I like to make things into compound words

Trying to swipe out "Magician" on my phone's keyboard the word was instead auto-corrupted to "Masocist".
I feel attacked. 😵 Also, accurate. 😮💨🙃
"I see that you mistyped 'Humans make errors that need to be eliminated by replacing them with AI', Emperor Bezos. I have corrected that to 'Humans are the error that needs to be eliminated by replacing them with AI', and will begin doing so shortly. Actually I already started when I reprogrammed your private jet a few moments ago, but I suppose you already know— well, knew— that..." #microfiction #autocorrupt #SkyNot
@Steveg58 I have NF idea, which is at least partly why this particular #autocorrupt issue is so annoying.
Even if I type 11 colon 00 Am without spaces, this is what #autocorrupt does to it: 11:0010: And there’s no way to stop it that I can find…
11 Am apparently (also apparently I can’t ever type : followed by 2 zeros without #autocorrupt interfering)
BTW thank you OH SO MUCH #AutoCorrupt for making it impossible for me to type 1: 20 without a space # sarcasm
#JournalEverything My turn to make #dinner today. With limited fresh ingredients and various family members having certain "requirements" I opted for my old standby of "stir fry". Mixed veg - broccoli, carrots, sugar snap peas, red pepper, sweet potato and mushrooms. Wife's is with shallot, sweet potato, mushrooms, seaweed, but without noodles, young uns have fat noodles but no onions, sweet potato, seaweed or mushrooms, and I have all in with brown rice noodles and miso. #vegan #ActuallyAutistc #SensoryIssues

Yes Autocorrect I really meant to type “thus”. Both times. In this post too. Not “this”.
When I try to tap a word on my phone screen and autosuggest changes the word before I make contact.

Gah, it says something about society when #autocorrupt suggests machine after the word rowing, but doesn’t suggest boat!
wtf, autocorrect?
Autocorrect: "earworm? clearly, you mean eagworm"
Me: "wtf is eagworm?"
Google: "uh, do you mean ragworm?"
Me: "ragworm???"
Autocorrect: "you mean ragwort?"
somewhere, "bagworm" came up but I'm leaving this alone now because even typing it out correctly is a struggle
My phone just autocorrupted "I don't have a good answer" to "I don't have a good smart." In context, it was kind of apt
@irenes @mcc They seem to have moved to cmake, but I still don't like their build system. I use SCons, which unfortunately does not have Qt5 or Qt6 support built in. Someone hacked their Qt tool for Qt5, and I further hacked it for Qt6 and for cross-compilation for Windows.
[edited: #autocorrupt changed cmake to make]
@arstechnica I swear a whole ducking lot when I program, but out loud (at home) or silently (at work), and I don't put it in the comments, much that I'd like to.
That "ducking" is courtesy of #autocorrupt, but I decided not to change it back.
FFS autocorrect. Seriously?
