English is not my native tongue. If I had a relaxed mode, that'd be awesome :)

Can't people see any usecase for the steam machine?

The only problem with the Steam Machine is the price tbh, and that's mainly Valve having a really bad luck with timing once again.

Having a custom-made "Steam Machine" for the past 3 years thanks to ChimeraOS, it really changed the way I play for the better. I can play on my couch with my son and wife, and it made my wife (who wasn't really into gaming) buy a Steam Deck and enjoy my 500+ library instantly.

Now, I can play CS2 in my office, my son can play Astroneer in the living room and my wife The Witcher 3 next to him. The Steam ecosystem is simply amazing, it's a real shame Valve had to launch their machine during a worldwide component crisis.

Reminds me of AceJump for JetBrains IDEs:

This has been my experience as well.

- Claude writes User Stories, supervised by the PO.

- Claude is in charge of the implementation, supervised by the devs.

- Claude does the PR review.

- If a comment is made by a human, someone c/p what Claude thinks with a simple "not sure if AI is right".

We're just passing butter at this point.

I usually switch between DuckDuckGo and Startpage. Both are good.

I really need to find the time to properly test Zed. I'm mainly using PHP Storm and I love what it can do, especially when it comes to code discovery and auto-completion. I'm not a huge fan of having a bloated toolbox, I never use PHP Storm's included terminal or database browser.

Zed was super impressive when I first started it, but I don't know yet how it compares with PHP Storm.

I bought a used laptop with the help of ChatGPT last month and was amazed. It helped me narrow the model that suited my needs based on my prompts. I needed to renew my old Thinkpad T480. It also helped me find an ad and negociate with the seller.

I ended up with a T14 Gen 4 and I'm super happy with it.

I switch between VS Code and MarkText. It does the job perfectly.

I thought it would be a problem as well but it turns out I absolutely never edit my notes on two machines at once. The commit/push/pull is done via a simple bash script that I'm running as a build command inside VS Code.

Like many I've been looking for the best note-taking app for years. And somehow I always come back to a bunch of markdown files inside a Git repo.

I personally use a hard drive in my house, and a cold storage solution (Glacier) from a reputable provider.

Yeah disc rot is a real problem. CD/DVD-R are great when it comes to physically store drives (they don't take much space on a shelf and are easely sent via mail) but I'd rather use a hard drive and the cloud for my backups now.

As others said, the only thing you should be looking for is a drive that works with Accuraterip. Ripping discs from my local library is a hobby of mine and I've discovered so much music from there. I still buy CDs from thrift shops and the occasional garage sale, but having my music collection neatly organized and ripped/verified in FLAC is something I enjoy a lot.

I'm in a never-ending cycle of wanting to find a better monospace font, spending countless hours looking through various alternatives and coming back to the one I'm currently using.

After using Ubuntu Mono for many many years I've switched to IBM Plex Mono and basically can't find a better font for me. At this point it's like my eyes are so used to this font I could never use anything else, despite the fact that my brain wants to try something new. So it's my default choice for any monospace font that I can set up.

This is amazing. I wonder how much that document cost to produce.

The "Gravitational Pull of Pepsi" blew my mind.

Writing a blog is always rewarding, but it's a difficult exercise, especially if one's writing in another language. Not only do you have some proficiency in writing fluid sentences and paragraphs, it's sometimes taxing to formulate something in a language that's not your mother tongue.

I'm curious if people around here have tips on diminishing friction and how to write better/more easily.

I'm a Garmin user as I find the hardware to be very reliable but the market is in deep need of an Open Source alternative.

Let's not forget Garmin was victim of a ransomware attack in 2020 and they finally paid $10 million after days of blackout and they never really addressed the issue.

This might be a minor thing, but does anyone know if a full pardon will allow him to use an electronic device or access the internet? Often times, people convicted of crimes related to an online activity are forbidden this right, and I wonder if that's the case for him, and if so, what his life would be in this day and age.

The problem with passkey is that it's obscure for the common folk.

I'm a developer, yet for some odd reason I'm having a hard time understanding passkeys. Are they synced between devices? Do I need to set up a passkey per device? What happens if I have a single passkey on my phone and it gets lost? Do I lose access to that service?

So many questions that need a clear and concise answer.

I like the idea of a stream of knowledge in one file, I usually used the Saved Messages in Telegram for that.

I'd rather use Markdown though, for the formatting capabilities alone.

I'm probably wrong here, but my tinfoil hat take is that Matt has seen how well Taylor Otwell is doing with Laravel and he wants a piece of that cake. Granted they're doing pretty good with wordpress.com hosting, but they'd have so much more money if they licenced plugins and features the way Laravel does.

Looks really nice. Just a heads-up, I get a NS_BINDING_ABORTED error on the home page video, so I can't see it. (Firefox 121.0, Linux).

I used to be part of the music scene back in '95 and it basically changed my life. I'm so proud to have a presence somewhere in the dark corners of the scene.org FTP.

That logo has some strong Masterchef vibes.

This is what I personally do. I have small needs when it comes to backups (< 1TB), so I have one backup that's just a regular HDD stored in a drawer, and another one that's on a Scaleway cold storage container.

I don't get Tailwind. In my book, CSS is here to facilitate the style of multiple webpages by modifying a set of rules, and classes are here to mutualise said rules.

With Tailwind, it looks like you design by writing HTML, which is the opposite of what CSS aims at. So if you wish to change your design, you'll have to update multiple templates instead of one CSS rule.

Every time I've had to work with Tailwind, it felt like a chore and it was an unpleasant experience.

Looking at FEZ levels instantly made me want to see if there was something hidden in the levels' names. I've yet to finish it, and boy is this game amazing.

I've had the pleasure to build a small website with Kirby and it was such a joy to use as a developer. The only problem I faced was with my client as he was used to Wordpress and making the transition to Kirby was a bit rough for him.

Just give me an app that can handle nicely markdown files

You know what does that well? The filesystem.

I've tested pretty much all note-taking software out there. What ended up working for me is a bunch of markdown files inside folders, synced using Github.

I have search, formatting and preview thanks to VSCode, and I can access my notes on any machine that syncs with Github.

I agree. BJJ brought me to a place of happiness that was amazing. I felt completely connected with my body.

Then I hurt my back three years ago doing weight lifting. I haven't been able to practice BJJ ever since, and I've been suffering with constant anxiety for the past three years. Every day since has been a struggle, with some really bad days, and some better ones.
