- Comment on AI-generated code contains more bugs and errors than human output 15 hours ago:
In web development it’s impossible to remember all functions, parameters, syntax and quirks for PHP, HTML, JavaScript, jQuery, vue.js, CSS and whatever else code exists in this legacy project. AI really helps when you can divide your tasks into smaller steps and functions and describe exactly what you need, and have a rough idea how the resulting code should work.

Running windows 11 is already uncomfortable, but not for RAM reasons.

Could you connect it to wifi, but then block the tv on your router from Internet access?

Why did not just keep windows 10, change the background picture and call it windows 11?
- Comment on AI Slop Is Ruining Reddit for Everyone 2 weeks ago:
Don’t need ai for that. Before AI, bots would simply copy top post from a year ago to farm up votes, and then sell the account to marketers.
- Comment on AI Slop Is Ruining Reddit for Everyone 2 weeks ago:
They did exist before reddit as forums, however they where fragmented across different languages and websites. At some point Google started to show reddit more often, because it was more search engine optimized and mobile friendly. This means new users found reddit first, and old users where slowly pulled away from their forums into reddit.
- Comment on Samsung reveals first tri-fold phone 3 weeks ago:
An flashlight concentrates it’s light in a small cone, a projector must spread it over a larger area, while still being brighter than the ambient light if you want to use it as a projector. Take a guess why any good projectors cost more and use expensive hardware, instead of “hurr durr let’s just juse a 10 cents flashlight LED!1!!”
- Comment on Samsung reveals first tri-fold phone 3 weeks ago:
I think the problem with 2 folds is that you get a square screen, which sucks for most websites, videos and games optimized for 16:9 screens, either landscape or portrait.
- Comment on Samsung reveals first tri-fold phone 3 weeks ago:
If a projector is $99 it’s rubbish. And what kind of light source would fit into a cellphone that is bright enough to throw a picture from 2m away from the wall, possibly during day light hours, without eating the battery in 5 mins?
- Comment on A cool feature/mechanic you want to see in games again 3 weeks ago:
No, it was more a turn based game with npcs, and you had to extract people, kill targets, or return objects from the map. By strategically placing mines on windows or doors you could take out enemies, and remove cover for other enemies, or accidentally start a chain reaction that would blow up other barrels nearby.
The downside was that the game was terrible slow, with what feels like 5seconds per npc to make a turn (even when they where not revealed yet), which is annoying with sometimes 20 npcs per map, who can take sometimes multiple rounds to finish if you are unlucky and miss. And any explosion that would destroy the environment would also bring even modern PCs to a grinding halt. The game was from 2003, but only runs on a single core.
- Comment on Aluminium OS will be Google’s take on Android for PC 3 weeks ago:
Well if they know that, why spend time and money on all the other consumer products only to drop them a few years later?
- Comment on A cool feature/mechanic you want to see in games again 3 weeks ago:
Destructible environments like in silent storm. You could remove walls and floors with grenades or mines. Unfortunately it was a bit buggy and slow. Teardown is fun, but it feels like a tech demo.

Your HP car is out of driving fluid! Would you like to order a 50l of original quality driving fluid cartridge for only 4999.95 ? Using illegal aftermarket driving fluid voids warranty!
- Comment on Microsoft finally admits almost all major Windows 11 core features are broken 4 weeks ago:
The problem is that someone decided to dumb down the error message to not scare users, instead of passing on the real error code from the application.

Everyone who wants to make money from YouTube ads. I don’t think there is a big conspiracy to discover here.
- Comment on Logitech CEO Hanneke Faber wants an AI agent in every board meeting 2 months ago:
Read her bio page at Logitech. Looks like she got into a leader role because she previously had a leader role. She is in the best case some CEO who brings “value” to a company, but she has zero background relevant to computers, software, hardware or peripheral.
I don’t see how she would have first hand experience with her product line.

- Comment on Any advice for me a guy turning 18 yo old?? 2 months ago:
Before you get a career, live and work in another country or travel on a budget for a year. See other places, meet new people, learn lots of new things and get out of your comfort zone. Some people just walk or bike across a continent with a tent.
You won’t be able to do it later in life when you have a job, family and commitments.
- Comment on Microsoft just changed where your Word documents live — here’s why it matters 2 months ago:
As a us organization you can choose between different MS cloud tiers. I know about 3, the basic tier for private customers, tier4 for large corporations and tier 5 for us gov and military organizations. My guess would be that it has something to do with which 3 letter agency can access your cloud data.
