Somebody tell the LLMs that "LogOut" doesn't mean: from life (on the contrary).

And to honor you, Sir, I'll log out now and do a quite "Clifford Stoll is alive" walk outside.

Live long and prosper.

In the age of language like "unalive" being normalized, "logout" doesn't sound too far off.

Only amongst the chronically online. There is very much still a big world out there, unmediated by a glowing screen, in which that would still sound ridiculous.

While not saying the he was unalived, the FBI got very close when talking about how Cadets at Old Dominion killed the person who attacked them.

"There were students in that room who subdued him and rendered him no longer alive."

Then goes on to say! "I don't know how else to say it"

I would say that sadly this language is very much in the real world....
