- Comment on Microsoft AI CEO pushes back against critics after recent Windows AI backlash — "the fact that people are unimpressed ... is mindblowing to me" 8 hours ago:
I have yet to use ChatGPT or any kind of coding copilot. No need. I can search for information online and produce code without it/them.
I wince when I see people unashamedly say shit like “should I just watch a movie on the plane or should I actually try to code without an agent?”
Like bruh did you forget your whole ass education in a year or whatever time coding agents have been around? Or maybe they had none to begin with.

Good thing I don’t use Windows so I won’t have to deal with it whatsoever. 😌

The best way to deal with Agentic AI is to ignore it until it goes away. That’s my strategy. 🙅♂️🫣😖

With the old style hobs, usually each heater has 6, 9, or 12 steps.
These induction hobs we have have 14 steps plus a P(ower) step for extremely fast heating, for a total of 15 steps. It’s even more granular than before, even if the highest steps are hotter than the old style hobs. 🙂👍
- Comment on YSK How to cook a perfect (hard) boiled egg 6 days ago:
Induction hobs are wonderful. 🙂 Boiling a full pot of water is just a few minutes or less depending on size.
Frying pans are hot enough to start frying within seconds (like 10–20 seconds).
Highly recommend it if you ever have the opportunity to switch from the ancient style hobs.

I read every word. 😉
But yeah, it just goes to show that the mass production vs caring and dedicated production really are playing in different leagues altogether. Mass produced stuff is just shit no matter how expensive, and this controller-centric company blows the big dogs out of the water for a third, quarter, eighth of the price!
Anyway, I hope you get more free time for yourself soon, so you can enjoy it more. 😌

It’s brutal. I’m very lucky I wasn’t. Both my younger half brothers are.

I’m super pleased with it, rock solid performance. Very snappy input lag as well, not even detectable, and I play games that require very precise timing on inputs.
Wish I could disagree with you on the durability of the premium controllers from Xbox. So bad. I got the Elite 2 like I said, but I exchanged it for a new one literally an amount of times that I can’t even remember, and it took place over almost a year. The issue was with its sticks. They were either drifting or had some kind of gap where the stick wouldn’t sit still in its socket. Both left and right sticks, or one or the other.
Eventually I had enough and settled on one that had very little of the issue, on the left stick (less used), because I just wanted to freaking play my games because I was without a controller all the time sending them back.
8Bit? Third of the price, first controller sent to me was flawless.
I’m not experiencing an issue with charging though. In what way do you notice that it doesn’t charge fully? The charge light never switches off?

The 8bitDo Ultimate 2 was like $40–50 or something, so cheap compared to the Elite 2. I got the dirt cheap 8Bit just to try it out for giggles because I’d never tried TMR sticks before. Bro I haven’t touched the Elite 2 since unpacking the 8bit.

- Comment on Steam Hardware [new Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and VR headset Steam Frame, coming in 2026] 1 week ago:
The 8bitDo Ultimate 2 has TMR sticks too, best controller I’ve used. Better than the Xbox Elite Controller Series 2. I do wish the 8bitDo had 4 underside buttons instead of only 2, but it’s still better. The sticks are insane.

Exactly, bringing in all the feces and dirt and gravel and everything else from outside in the streets. So nasty. Like okay, if you live your life in your shoes and you take them off only to shower and sleep, even that is… workable, if that suits you. I don’t understand it, but fine. But laying your shoes on your bed? 🤮

Your TV has an app for running mpv? Or do you mean you’re using your TV as a computer monitor? That’s not really the same thing, IMO.

Can’t run mpv on my TV though.
