  • 'member how your CRT would whine when messing up the refresh rate in XF86Config?

    Or how you'd spend the next two hours staring at your kernel re-compiling because you forgot to build in support for your NE2000?

  • Peer pressure.

    All the other kids calling you a windows lamer all day will set any 13-year old right. Appearances are important at that age.

    I've been running Linux 30 years this fall.

  • And that man's name? Kanye West.

  • Plenty of admins are pretty

    Do you have a source on that?

  • There used to be sites where people did just that. They've shut down their comment sections because of bots. Also, you can find them by searching for that particular topic because spammy sites with better SEO drown it out.

    I hate what the internet has become.

  • I studied computer engineering in Finland, so Linux is probably way overrepresented in my circles.

    Personally I just don't see any other viable desktop operating system. But gaming is pretty far down on the list of things I use my computers for. If a new game doesn't run, I'm fine waiting for the switch port a decade later.

  • I have great internets at home, but I did a lot of sailing abroad with limited roaming. I had my home server set up to download new videos from my favourite YouTube channels and put them in a shared syncthing directory.

    I'd just go hit that local pub or library with free WiFi and let syncthing on my smartphone do its thing.

  • Agentic use of AI didn't really work well enough until December of last year. The models and tools just improve that fast. Codex/claude (or opencode with the same top models) is what you'd need for it.

    You still need to plan and define clear specifications for the model. Spend 80% of your time planning and breaking down the job into steps and it'll be pretty self-going from there.

    Of course, this works best for common frameworks and solved problems or logical problems. React/node developers can easily 10x their output, and get it done better than they would by hand.

    I'm working more with empirical development, so most of my time goes into studying environments and adapting to it. I get most benefit out of having agents read through logs and figure out what happened. It gets it right maybe half the time, but it's a good rubber ducky even when it goes wrong. I'd say it 2-3xes my output. But I can probably improve my usage, too.

    But yeah, code review is where it hurts. If it's slop, it just takes so many rounds to get it right. Even when it's good, it's just so much code to review.

  • I prefer reflinks.

  • Orange man already says that he thinks Iran did it.

    So, I think we can probably take that as a confession from his part.

  • Well, that's no time to tale a loan for a new car.

  • I'm pretty sure the US army used to recommend peeing on your own feet in the shower to reduce athlete's foot.

  • After just reading the title I thought orange man wanted to play with the documents on air force one.

  • I miss nectarine demoscene radio. Now we just have hypr.

  • Oh, I gave it about an hour before giving up. I expected more.

    Would you recommend the other games in the series?

  • Trackpoint, nipple or clit. Depending on the company you keep.

  • It's punny. It sounds like the Finnish Peter Pan, but it actually means Peter Lay (as in f*ck).

  • I'd be more discreet about my moonshine operation, that's for sure.

  • Lemmy Shitpost @lemmy.world

    Did anyone else notice the similarity?
