- Comment on New ntfy.sh v2.18.0 was written by AI 5 days ago:
I agree with you, though even when I have just made a change myself, I am looking through the git diff like a crazy person.
So, still I think refactoring my own code is much more fun than telling AI to do it for me and then proceeding to review and test it for weeks (allegedly, lol).
You seem to be using it responsibly by asking it how things could be better.
I’d never copy and paste output from an AI or give it free roam to make a PR, etc myself.
I’ll probably be sitting out on this update for a while too until I gage the general reactions of people heh :)
- Comment on New ntfy.sh v2.18.0 was written by AI 5 days ago:
At that point, I think: Why not just write the code yourself?
Writing the code is more fun that reviewing code, not to mention less error prone.
- Comment on I built a self-hosted period tracker because I couldn't find one worth using 1 week ago:
I’m guessing you let the AI make the tests and everything, which wouldn’t give me much reassurance that any of the code is good. Sadly AI will jump through any hoops it can to get tests to pass if it can’t get the code working.
I think people who let AI run wild to create a whole app should write the tests themselves or at least only with line completion (jusdging by a quick look at the project files, I am guessing an AI did everything).
Could be food for thought?

France is doing it correctly, that sounds awesome. I wanna go to a gas station, get hopped up on some fumes and then start blasting arrows in every direction

You make it sounds like a good thing; people will wont have microslops os by default… they may pick loonix!!! (this comment is brought to you by me)

Playstation is next;
80% of the xbox crowd is probably gonna buy a playstation. Maybe a few will go for a PC and the rest for a switch.
Couch goblins that look into the future when considering the cost of a console might find the steam machine worthy when it releases.
- Comment on Windows 11 just lost 5% market share in two months despite Windows 10 losing support. 5 weeks ago:
Pretty annoying because (don’t forget) people in europe are still getting security patches for win10 btw. On each security patch they are specifically ticking “NOT US OR ANYWHERE ELSE” but instead “only eu”.

buddy who has to support Mint installs for work
The “work” part is probably why you have such a bad view of Mint. It could be any OS, but at work there would be a horror story every day (because theres a lot of people, most cant use computers, etc).
The ease of use and not having it break randomly is why you don’t use Arch for normal people who just need to get stuff done.

Think about if you care having all your “eggs” in one basket if you use bitwarden for your passwords too, but if you also store recovery codes in bitwarden then realize that the difference doesnt matter.
- Comment on The TV industry finally concedes that the future may not be in 8K 1 month ago:
I have bad eye sight, but also 8k probably never need to be a thing on a tv, more impressive for stuff thats closer to our eyes like VR headsets probably.

I’m sure the encryption was disabled post meta buyout

I don’t do modeling or anything, but don’t workspaces better? Mostly to avoid moving your head so much around 4 screens. I would think so anyway but i dunno
- Comment on Verizon carriers start switching to 365-day device unlock policy, up from 60 days 1 month ago:
If you can afford it
It’s cheaper, no? You just go on ebay or any other used marketplace.
I know it’s a slightly higher initial cost (depending on the phone), but phones last years, you’ll be saving way more over those years.
- Comment on Why are people still romanticizing No Man’s Sky’s “redemption” arc? 1 month ago:
I think they are saying “look at star citizen as the alternative” meaning never finished, but by comparison No Man’s Sky is complete?
Maybe i’m reading it wrong though.
- Comment on Anyone using Revolt? 1 month ago:
I have no thoughts, but Matrix isn’t only text based.
You should of course try different clients first to see if it’s viable, I don’t know if it’s gotten good yet.
Voice chat should work quite well now though, I think.

- Comment on China’s ‘artificial sun’ breaks nuclear fusion limit thought to be impossible 1 month ago:
That’s true, reading your comment reminded me of SUBURBIA!!! Definitely not easy to fix that.
Certainly a good place to start with better zoning as you say.
- Comment on Instead of everyone leaving NATO, could everyone else just kick the US out? 1 month ago:
The UK and France have more than 500 nukes.
The US doesn’t “have the keys” to UK nukes (ie the UK doesn’t keep US approval to fire them), but they are maintained and built by the US (I’m sure if they had to, they could figure it out themselves).
And let’s be real, you don’t need thousands of nukes when a handful (when carefully stored and separated like the UK does in submarines for their active ones) could destroy so much of the planet.
Will a country with 1000 nukes invade a country that has “only” 5?
- Comment on China’s ‘artificial sun’ breaks nuclear fusion limit thought to be impossible 1 month ago:
Luckily major european countries that have well designed streets publish a lot of their found research, it just has to start being adopted in the more car-centric places.
The US as an example is pretty far gone, but if the major cities went fully in the correct direction, it probably would only take a few decades to look completely different (amsterdam is decent proof of this).

Assuming you mean commericial grade hauler trucks and such, I absolutely agree with all your points.
Oh yes, I mean commercial hauler trucks, etc. The ones that do their job well of course. Of course theres other types of trucks for maintenece, last mile deliveries, etc.
(Side note, europe has nice delivery vans)
Definitely not the things the average american has started calling a “truck”, which has 5mpg and is used solely for one person to go to and from an office job, etc, never hauling anything.
And plus 1 for bikes, idk about motorbikes though, sadly they seem like death traps because of how fast you can go, one mistake by you or someone else on the road and you could see black.
- Comment on Stop using MySQL in 2026, it is not true open source 1 month ago:
Postgres or sqlite are the only ones I ever consider nowadays.
- Comment on China’s ‘artificial sun’ breaks nuclear fusion limit thought to be impossible 1 month ago:
Seems obvious to pick a new transit paradigm for personal cars, obviously trucks can stay.
Also in the current era, coal plants already have a good replacement: nuclear. At least for bigger countries, but most are shutting down rather than improving. This might be (hopefully) starting to change though in recent times.
Also I don’t know what fusion power is, I shall be on wikipedia now. Good day sir.

- Comment on OpenWRT router 2 months ago:
Not to mention how apparently 2.5 and 5ghz bands suffer on the Flint 3 just to get Wifi 7.
Hope no one’s buying them (though I imagine a lot of people see 3 > 2 and blindly trust it’s better in all cases).
Flint 3 probably would’ve been better as a different product line. As it currently stands, It seems a bit misleading to attach it to the Flint 2 when so much is different at its core.

- Comment on Do people actually believe those "gurus" on the internet that supposedly "give advice"? These seems very sussy and feel scam-adjacent, isn't it? 2 months ago:
People do, but I have a hard time believing them. If you have a secret unlimited money glitch, why would you give it away? Or why would you charge any amount of money for it in a course?
Sometimes it can maybe be a clickbaity title to real advice or an educational video, but anyone peddling advice in a course, etc, should be seen as the snake oil salesmen that they are.
The real advice is always available for free on the internet, just have to find that dude that is so compassionate about the real stuff they give it to you straight up.
- Comment on ublock Origin can get rid of Cookie Banners 2 months ago:
It’d be nice if that header was default for all users, unfortunately it can (and has, probably) end up being just another data point for uniquely identifying you.
Probably will never be default since 99% people use Chrome, and we know who owns that…
Extensions seem the only way without making your traffic mote unique.
- Comment on Where are you running your wireguard endpoint? 2 months ago:
Maybe easier to setup because routers that support vpns come with nice-ish web uis.
That said, if you have a server (pc, pi, etc), setting up wireguard with wg-easy is mostly painless (comes with a nice web ui), so there is no reason to replace your router in this case!
Instead of replacing a router, I’d prefer buying a pi anyways.
Unless you want to route all outbound traffic through a vpn with zero config on devices, I can’t see why you’d replace a router.
Final note: most people prefer hosting a vpn on a server, even if their router supports it as far as I’m aware at least.
