And as for all things Windows 11 a tutorial is needed to painstakingly wade through every inch of bullshit.

I do love the occasional sandbox and I don’t mind the voxels, but the the human characters’ art style is turning me off so bad.

This is all fine and dandy but the whole article is based on an interview with “Dorian Smiley, co-founder and CTO of AI advisory service Codestrap”. Codestrap is a Palantir service provider, and as you’d expect Smiley is a Palantir shill.

The article hits different considering it’s more or less a world devourer zealot taking a jab at competing world devourers. The reporter is an unsuspecting proxy at best.

Seven years after its launch, Microsoft engineers would still assert that the Xbox One was “the most secure product Microsoft has ever produced.”

Microsoft always at its peak when working against its users. For a console released in 2013 to be broken into only today is quite the achievement. Imagine what MS could do if their users weren’t their product.

An old PC of mine as been promoted to becoming my first personal server ever and I went for Debian without UI. I’ve dealt with Ubuntu servers at work for a while. For me Debian felt so incredibly lightweight yet so familiar. I heartily recommend the move for a home server.

Consoles bring convenience for gamers that don’t care to know much about tech. Not something of much value to me and you I bet but it’s still a surprisingly strong argument. Think of how many users refuse to try Linux no matter how much they hate Windows.

Anyways next time you build a decent mid-range gaming PC you’re in for a reality check regarding prices imho. I’ve built one last month and yikes! I had to chill on my RAM target let me tell you. Storage stung way more than it used to as well. And I ended up taking ye olde GPU for one more spin.

Nice advertisement. Classic unavoidable single path of progress bit. I hope NYT charged Anthropic for it at least.

I don’t want to be a party pooper but I can’t help feeling that buying Google’s hardware to avoid Google’s software might not pan out in the long run.

The sad part is that LineageOS, GrapheneOS and basically all Android alternative OS are built on top of the AOSP, which Google controls, and they’re staling updates to twice a year. These stalled updates may include critical security patches or device compatibility support.

Furthermore many android devices prevent users from entering a boot state which lets the owner install the OS of their choice, making everything more complicated.

What the hell. I sure ain’t letting a Python script in Alpha stage written with Claude mess with my PC’s partitions. You can totally create a small FAT32 partition yourself, get the ISO’s content in there and boot from it. No USB key required.

Also the take that it’s not Free Software if you’re buying a USB key is so plain wrong. It’s free as in freedom, not free beer. You still get to pay for the hardware, but with free software you get to own it too.

If you’re up for some reading be sure to check out the Breaking Free report. Hands down the most thorough, easy to read document about the issue imho.

Oh look, a tech bro pivoting from crypto to genAI. He’s shifting grift a little late but whatever.

It does not. You need a Switch 2 to play this game. There’s some game share Nintendo feature that allows a Switch 1 to play it if it is being shared locally by a friend with a Switch 2. Some magazines are having fun wording this confusingly and getting people’s hopes up but it’s not happening. Console makers aren’t in the business of extending devices’ lifespan.

I have yet to spot anybody complaining about Firefox not having enough AI features, or hoping for opt-out instead of opt-in.

Bro you’re on Beehaw here. So please be nice. Objectively pointing out what’s wrong with their comment is good. Simply not engaging is alright too.

Man what’s with the whole world suing Valve? Can’t we go after ANY other big tech company?

Aw man, I feel for your colleagues. If you’re the boss you’re the boss I guess. I gotta say though, imho being pedantic comes with the territory when you hang out with a code interpreter all day. It’s just a question of getting things done.

You’d have a problem if you felt like you made something perfect. You can improve those “wrongs” in any order but getting something up and working first and foremost is a very sane way to get some practice in.
