It’s always been a very ugly game. I never expected that to change… but games are a lot more than graphics. Minecraft still looks like Minecraft, after all.

Something tells me that platform exclusivity is a major factor. And yet, they keep doing it.

this has less to do with using AI, more to do with sloppy code reviews and code quality enforcement.

They are the same picture.

Borderline?

There’s still DuckDuckGo, or Kagi if you are rich.

If I had any expendable income right now, I’d preorder for that stance alone.

No matter how you feel about Apple in general, Apple TV boxes are really the only way to go these days. Everything else is designed to aggressive sell to you whether you like it or not.

It’s either that or use something like a Raspberry Pi and settle for websites, which also have a habit of streaming you lower-quality content.

Almost like those systems were designed to be monopolistic and anti-competitive from the very beginning…

He’s the Bateman.

I am right there with you on all counts. I’m on openSUSE now and happy as a clam.

My only problem with Proton is that they don’t work with native mail clients (especially mobile). I’d go with FastMail personally, but I do see the appeal of Proton.

AI is a neat toy… but that’s all it is. It’s horrible at almost every real-world application it’s been forced into, and that’s before you wander into the whole shifting minefield of ethical concerns or consider how wildly untrustworthy they are.

Does Codeberg have anything like Gitlab CI, or does it need to be paired with other build tools like Jenkins, TeamCity, etc?

Same here. Gitlab CI was a game-changer for me, too. Any thoughts on where else you’d consider going? Aside from GitHub, that is.

So birds in a cage are at fault for living in a cage… and there is no escape from the cage so they should just be content that they have a cage to live in…?

Ironically, it was the Gallic chief Brennus that reportedly said “Vae victis” after he sacked Rome.

When he defeated the Romans, he demanded a sum of gold as ransom. The Romans complained that his scales (used for weighing the gold) were unfair, so he threw his sword onto the scales to make it worse and then stated: “Vae victis” (woe to the defeated).

More people need to give Gitlab a chance. It’s really come into its own and I agree that Github now feels like typical unfocused, bloated MS software.

VS Code is a highly configurable editor that can get really close to being like an IDE, but you should really check out the Jetbrains IDEs. Best in class for just about every language they support.
