Interesting, I probably won’t move there then lol, but appreciate the info!

I would prefer suburbs vs big city, too many people for my liking :p

How cold is it? Native Texan and lived in Ohio for a few years but the winter was brutal, thinking about CO though I know winter is pretty rough there too.

I think it’s just new Vegas stans are very vocal lmao

I will say the dismissiveness to an outside viewer can come across very poorly as well. I agree with your stance overall though, if nothing else it gets frustrating to argue with bad-faith or closed-minded people and can be liberating to tell them off, outside viewers would then just likely fall along the side they already had tho.

Is it really though? Because would you have actually put in the effort in the first place to build that app?

I am sure in some instances yes, like I grew up wanting to learn a ton of different things and dove in and learned a lot.

On the other hand though, having to dig in and debug in a way actually is teaching you, surely not the “proper” way to learn and there are absolutely downsides regardless, but I’d posit it’s still better then simply not doing the thing at all. 🤷

I wanted to set up automatic color lighting based on various factors in node-red, I didnt know shit about node-red though I’m familiar with low-code tools like powerautomate so some of that knowledge helped but I was still extremely out of my depth on where to even begin.

So I asked AI, and within a couple days I had it functional and learned a lot about how passing messages worked and some typescript too. I very much doubt I would have put in the effort to learn how to do all of that on my own entirely and still did gain knowledge through the process. Absolutely not as much if I took the real time to learn, but I wasn’t going to do that for such an overall low-tier goal and that would absolutely have taken more then a few hours over a couple days lol.

Then again, I am pretty sure I’m some strain of neurodivergent and when I use LLMs I’m not generally asking it to “do it all” for me, rather I ask how to do very specific tasks and “put it together” myself. 🤷

As someone who knows nothing about POSIX, what’s the difference or in your opinion what would make it specifically better with the context of amber?

I’ve seen a stark drop in Trump flags and random merch on people’s cars.

Is making the thing that’s already illegal illegal really addressing the issue? It seems like it’s more like paying lip service to the issue if it isn’t backed with some sort of positive social programs as well.

Weed, usually at least some at the end of every day to unwind, don’t do it while working or for social situations (anymore) get too anxious lol

I don’t know if I’d go that far lmao

No, it’s “you all seem to think everyone else also hates AI, but they don’t” it was directly in response to the comment “no one wants AI slop.”

I’m not even advocating, I’m just trying to inform you people who are clearly in a bubble thinking everyone hates AI, they don’t and that became crystal clear at my recent family gatherings as the one tech guy.

Ah yes hand waive away everything you don’t like as idiots who deny vaccines and the moon landing.

I am talking about normal normies, not fringe conspiracy normies.

Anybody who has used sync for a long time (nearly a decade here) has seen that the dev tends to work in spurts. Silence for a long time then bam giant update and a few months of activity then mostly silence again.

I and many others probably hope we’ll see it again lol

Y’all don’t realize how much of a bubble you’re in on the anti - AI front, the vast majority of normies are catching on and use genAI

Even though I don’t use the extra stuff in nextcloud, it runs perfectly fine on my hardware and is great as a replacement for onedrive functionality

I am not sure how it works with authentik and the navidrome mobile apps, but I with Authelia and Immich, I basically had to add a header bypass to the traefik config and in the immich mobile app, maybe something similar is possible?
