I’ve heard good things about kagi, but $10/mo is pretty steep

I also blame search engines. I type like “python file open parameters” and I really just want the official docs. They’re not even on the first page of DDG.

He left you unattended in his apartment? Bold.

Don’t just stay there all day. Go home. Make plans for a third date. That’s weird to just stay there.

The problem is capitalism. Specifically, the consolidation of power in a small number of decision makers.

Break up the big companies. Stop letting them do mergers and acquisitions. You don’t even have to do something radical like dismantling capitalism entirely.

One of the other guys is on Windows and we had to change a config in git to handle it. Not sure what he did on his end. I have vscode on a Mac. Some people at this place have been working since like the 90s and probably are using notepad.

Windows isn’t fit for software development unless you’re doing Windows specific stuff. Maybe you can get by with WSL or cygwyn or similar, but that’s just a bandaid to make the machine less windows. You’ll probably still have problems with like case folding and line endings.

How did this get normalized?

The average user doesn’t know or understand technical details, and don’t believe they have any power to change anything

Also capitalism means a small number of assholes make most of the decisions for reasons that benefit them

There should be consequences for trying to pass all these horrible and doomed bills. Unfortunately the people keep voting for the people writing them.

I have used copilot a couple times to be like “I have this scenario and want to do this. What are my options?”. I’d rather have a good Internet search and real people, but that’s all shitted up.

The answers from the LLM aren’t even consistently good. If I didn’t know programming I wouldn’t be able to use this information effectively. That’s probably why a lot of vibe coding is so bad.

Upvote things I felt like were worth reading. Down vote things I didn’t think were worth reading.

Per-encounter resource used are generally better for me, yes.

It’s one of my big problems with DND. Almost the whole thing is centered around per-day so there’s this constant pressure to avoid actually using anything. Like, you could end the fight with a 3rd level spell, or you could slowly end it without spending any resources. It takes longer to play but is otherwise mechanically superior. Deeply anti-fun for me.

I just use my phone to look stuff up if I’m on my steam deck.

I don’t understand why you’d want an AI browser to begin with. Most web tasks aren’t hard.

Steam and Heroic have been working fine for me for playing games on Linux.

I hate the AI thing in confluence. Stop asking me to improve writing or summarize. I know how to read and write.

Freedom of speech doesn’t mean a guaranteed audience or platform.

You can write whatever you want. No one is required to read it. No one is required to host it. If they do read it, they can say whatever they want about it.

This is the fediverse. You can host your own instance and say whatever you want. No one else is required to federate with you.

If you post something and people say it’s garbage, that’s not your freedom of speech being quashed. You spoke. Now they are using their freedom of speech in response.

GitHub and similar tools show PR diffs in the browser.

Guy is a dangerous idiot. You should always use protection.

I didn’t make assumptions about your relationships. Please read more carefully.

I don’t think you’re a credible source in this scenario. Maybe you’re right and everyone is cool, but I would not be surprised at all if someone in your friend group had been hurt by your infequency.

But maybe!
