Endless Sky for me
Endless Sky for me
Am I one of the few who just doesn’t use AI at all? I don’t have to generate tons of code for work at the moment and brand new projects that I’ve been given are small–meaning I wouldn’t necessarily use it to generate starter boilerplate. I have coworkers that love copilot or spend much longer prompting ChatGPT than they would if they wrote code themselves. A majority of my time is spent modelling the problem, gathering rejuirements, researching others’ solutions online (likely this step could be better AI-assisted?), not actually implementing a solution in code.
Anyway, I’m not super anti-AI in software development, and I see where it could be useful. Maybe it just isn’t for me yet. The current hype around it as well as the attitude of big-tech exceptionalism (“AI can salve all our problems”) feels a bit like a bubble, at least regarding the current generation of LLMs and ML
My wife got me onto a comedy podcast called Bananas on the This is Exactly Right network–it’s usually really funny. We both also like Dungeons & Daddies which is a Dungeons and Dragons improv comedy type podcast. Just lay in bed and laugh
My thoughts exactly. DRM has rone way off the deep end
That is amazing! Now, I need to see about using weather satellites to explain the bugs in my code at work…
Wow that’s nice! I get 600/25mbps for $80USD in the US, coax 😞 wish fiber-to-the-premise was a possibility in my neighborhood
10Gb to the home? Where have you seen this, and.for how much? I had no idea that was a thing for residential
Ahh I missed that!
Makes more sense then – that seemed a bit long for any update
I booted up that system and after waiting an hour or so for Windows Update to finish
… 🙄
Crazy workstation though – wish I had need for all that power so I could justify buying one to play with
Me and my brother would sit in the magazine aisle at the grocery store and pore over Nintendo Power like it was a religious text lol
Also, you just made me remember getting all those demo discs with PlayStation magazine
I used RedReader for many years. It’s one of the few apps that was given an accessibility exclusion, but I still don’t want to get back on Reddit. Now I’m currently trying out Connect, Liftoff, Jerboa, and others to see which I like the best for Lemmy.
Yes I’ve used rename! In my case, I just need to rename and reorganize a bunch of movies & associated metadata files into directories. I don’t have too many stored digitally now, so I think just shaving the yak and doing it manually via file share will work for now.
Never been an emacs user… Seems like quite a rabbit hole
Helix + zellij huh? I’ll definitely try it out
Laziness so far haha but yes that’s a good plan

- William E. Shotts Jr., The Linux Command Line: A Complete Introduction
It has taken me a long time to get comfortable using a Linux CLI (definitely not as familiar with windows cmd prompt/powershell), and I know that if I log into a box anywhere, If it has sh
or bash
or some variant of those shells, I’ll be able to get by.
Now, on my home server, moving & renaming a bunch of media files has me really wishing I had a DE installed there to Ctrl + click/Drag-n-drop…
Also, I love using VScodium/Code as an IDE bc of its configurability & rich plugin ecosystem – but recently I had some performance hiccups with extensions not playing nice together and started (again) down the masochistic path of configuring neovim to use as an “IDE”…
Don’t know if this will help assuage your fears: https://www.techradar.com/news/mullvads-no-log-policy-proven-after-police-raid
I’ve used Mullvad for years, and from what I know, they store almost nothing – only your randomly generated account number. If you are paying using an anonymous method that’s even less to go on.
