Beautiful way to combine a slippery slope argument with a strawman

Yeah I tried Firefox and Chrome

EDIT: Maybe take some inspiration from Three.js? This demo works fine for Firefox and Chrome with a nice, smooth cursor that I'm used to https://threejsdemos.com/demos/camera/first-person

The aiming is very choppy because it feels like my cursor is "on rails", or stuck in some kind of grid. Not representative of any modern shooting game I've played. I think this would teach the wrong habits if someone were to use it as an aiming coach.

I’ll try this out later. Mostly interested in the controller handling, will this pass-through my Steam Controller or emulate it to an Xbox controller like Sunshine does?

If it’s pass-through like the README makes it seem, then I’m instantly sold.

Sunshine is the stable, maintained one. That should work fine for most users.

LLM slop, shame on you

What do we "regular folk" really own in our lives? Our houses are rented or loaned (via mortgage), the car is paid off in installments, everything is a subscription or license. Many people I know purchase their clothes and electronics through buy-now-pay-later services and stream all media they watch. We lend our time and effort to our employer if we are salaried, as we don't get paid at the end of the day but at the end of the month.

How can someone who has never owned anything of value in their lives understand what it means to have something that isn't rented?

I'm sad that Gabe Newell will retire one day, and Steam's benevolent dictatorship will go down the same route Sony just did.

The convenience of digital game storefronts can cut both ways. For now Steam is on our side, but there is no guarantee it will stay that way.

Are you arguing that Holocaust/Nazi jokes should be accepted socially, as long as you only deliver them to people who respond positively to Holocaust/Nazi jokes?

The cynic (or realist?) in my thinks this abstraction layer is Apple's way of making sure that users give their own Apple Intelligence credit for the underlying LLM functionality, even if another company is actually providing the LLM.

No one breaks my Gradle except me!!

That's the fun part, they can charge the same API costs with a downgraded model

No mention of making my homepod mini “Truly helpful”, so I’ll stick to just sticking timers, I guess.

A year ago (or so) I had a colleague whose messages were all obviously AI-generated. I told them that it felt weird that they were sending me AI answers in Slack and code reviews, and they stopped doing it.

Not an interesting story, just wanted to share that the other party might not be aware of how this comes across on the people that have to read their AI messages.

Game developers (mostly... hopefully?) try to optimize for the "fun" aspect of a game, not the "realism of the flight/flight instinct" aspect

Yeah right, so who is the target? How do they target them? You don't even need an account for Anna's Archive, and you can download through a VPN

Surely your claim can be backed up? Exploit code in PDFs should be obvious to point out.

Tikkie has a different usecase. It's meant for smaller payments between individuals

In fact, you can pay a Tikkie using iDEAL/Wero

"This is, unfortunately, how narcissists behave. It's simply impossible for a narcissist to be wrong. They truly believe themselves to be right, all the time, and will even distort reality around them to "make" it true. And they do it all unconsciously." - kstenerud

You claim "very high quality" but can't even get the basic UI working properly. You wrap tmux and a container in 2k lines of code and claim quality, I think the comment above was aimed at this claim.

There is no incentive to speak up. Why go against the grain and expend your social capital when you can just do exactly as you're told and not cause any trouble?

There is incentive to stay quiet: getting the paycheck and a stress-free evening with my family.

No one presumes you 'should' work 9-5, but that is the way it is, and the bank/postal office/whatever employees don't have the option to work evenings. It is the way it is.

Now whether we could have a better system -- Sure! I'm all for a better society. I'm just saying it's not the way it is because of discrimination or some other conspiracy.

It’s not discrimination man. People (including bank and post office workers) work during 9-5 working hours, so it makes sense that these services are only open during working hours.

Yes, although there are ways around it.

The other commenter mentioned a possible workaround, but you can also authenticate with AWS through env variables. You could store these in sops and have an alias or task that routes your aws commands through sops:

  sops exec-env secrets.enc.yaml 'aws something something' # sops injects decrypted credentials into env vars at runtime

`sops` combined with `age` is great! Benefit is that it doesn't tie you into 1Password's ecosystem

Played Factorio for tens of hours using the Steam Deck touchpad

Best usecase for them (according to me) is top down strategy/base building games

Some people use them for radial menus, like selecting a weapon or pings or whatever

Opus 4.6 and GPT 5.4 do the same thing through GH Copilot and Bedrock. I get plenty of "Actually the simplest solution is ..., wait no, actually I should do ..., the best fix is ..."

`bw list` shows plaintext credentials in the CLI https://bitwarden.com/help/cli/#list

I know this because I had the same surprised reaction

The death penalty was intended for Palestinians, not Israeli bosses
