You clearly haven’t eaten my wife’s cooking and most ready meals might look like food but don’t have a lot of nutrition and have now salt than you need in a week.
- Comment on Vibe coding is to coding what microwaving is to cooking. 1 week ago:
I would say it’s more accurate to say that vibe coding is to coding what microwaving a ready meal is to being a restaurant chef.
- Comment on Google is intentionally throttling YouTube videos, slowing down users with ad blockers 1 week ago:
Because I don’t watch random videos, I watch people I’m subscribed to and they don’t exist on other platforms. I would love to switch, really. The very fact I’m on Lemmy tells you that I’m open to doing that kind of thing.

- Comment on Cyberpunk 2 is now in preproduction, CD Projekt says 4 weeks ago:
I really enjoyed it and didn’t experience any bugs as I waited for it to be sorted. It was also one of the rare games that held my attention long enough to finish, so that’s probably why I think highly of it. Love that I’m being downvoted! I’ll know not to bother contributing my opinion next time.

- Comment on AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid 4 weeks ago:
Too be fair, this can also be said of teachers. It’s important to recognise that AI’s are as accurate as any single source and should always check everything yourself. I have concerns over a future where our only available sources are through AI.
- Comment on AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid 4 weeks ago:
Actually it’s taking me quite a lot of effort and learning to setup AI’s that I run locally as I don’t trust them (any of them) with my data. If anything, it’s got me interested in learning again.

My “indoor” cat brings me dinner every day including crows and other animals from the woods nearby. She also fights constantly with our much older next neighbours cat. She might get fed every day, but she hunts and fights for fun.

I called the fire brigade when I was about 4 years old. I thought it was a toy phone so I dialed 999 (I’m in the UK) and said there was a fire in a guest I could see from my window. I was mortified when the fire brigade arrived at the house asking if anyone had called as they’d been looking fit a guest fire in the area.
I think I evened it all out when I found smoke in our living room at age 6 and alerted my parents. I thought they were cooking sausages but a log had rolled out onto the carpet and the fire officer said I probably saved the house.
I felt guilty about the first case for decades. B but you have to forgive yourself. Also, out doesn’t matter what you did. Your parents divorce is not your responsibility. Whether what you did triggered it or not, their relationship clearly wasn’t strong if it broke so easily and it probably works have before for other reasons anyway.

Bunch of greedy sociopaths trying to con people into buying drinks with manufactured scarcity. There’s something to look up to there.

- Comment on Are AAA Games too bloated? 1 month ago:
Like Stray, I loved the Uncharted games. The story was well paced and the gameplay fun and each one could be finished in a weekend or less. Too many games expect hundreds of hours of time committed and they just burn me out. I’d like more games like this.
It’s a shame that earlier handed in the series aren’t ported to the PC.

Be aware that the companies would have paid Facebook handsomely to identify users in this way. The world we live in has a sickness with greed for money at its heart.

- Comment on Warning RTS electricity meters in 300,000 homes could stop working 1 month ago:
What if I don’t want to change it? I’ve seen my sister’s bills double since she got a smart meter so why the hell would I want to do that? I’m more than happy to keep giving them a manual reading.
What are my options?
I hate this world.
