Neovim Is a highly customizable, modal text editor program. Probably no what you’re looking for as far as terninal emulators go, but I use it daily as a near-IDE on desktop. Look into LazyVim for an easy way to get started.

I can second KDE connect–use it between my phone and Manjaro. Can’t speak to the other applications because I don’t have a use-case for many of their functions on a smart phone myself.

Am I one of the few who just doesn’t use AI at all? I don’t have to generate tons of code for work at the moment and brand new projects that I’ve been given are small–meaning I wouldn’t necessarily use it to generate starter boilerplate. I have coworkers that love copilot or spend much longer prompting ChatGPT than they would if they wrote code themselves. A majority of my time is spent modelling the problem, gathering rejuirements, researching others’ solutions online (likely this step could be better AI-assisted?), not actually implementing a solution in code.

Anyway, I’m not super anti-AI in software development, and I see where it could be useful. Maybe it just isn’t for me yet. The current hype around it as well as the attitude of big-tech exceptionalism (“AI can salve all our problems”) feels a bit like a bubble, at least regarding the current generation of LLMs and ML

I thought the same and just rolled with it. What was the whole jean thing anyway?

My wife got me onto a comedy podcast called Bananas on the This is Exactly Right network–it’s usually really funny. We both also like Dungeons & Daddies which is a Dungeons and Dragons improv comedy type podcast. Just lay in bed and laugh

Feel exactly this… Sometimes you just still want one randomly. But 99.999% of the time do not think about it at all anymore

*sigh can’t have any fun in the DOT I guess

• I turned my old desktop into a home server, which let me cancel some streaming services… and I set up an rpi4 as a kodi server.
• Signed up for Firefox Relay (had a holiday sale) to have email masks and a proxy phone number, which should help with spam & marketing crap.
• Stopped using Reddit in favor of lemmy (which I hope to contribute to this year)
• Gonna have to find a replacement for mint, since it’s dying this month

Thank you for this chuckle hehe

My thoughts exactly. DRM has rone way off the deep end

What do you mean by “doesn’t read from the same directory”? Is part of your application’s function to read in data from files in your project’s directory tree?

Without seeing the directory structure of your project, or some more actual code samples its hard to understand how to help 😅

That is amazing! Now, I need to see about using weather satellites to explain the bugs in my code at work…

Wow that’s nice! I get 600/25mbps for $80USD in the US, coax 😞 wish fiber-to-the-premise was a possibility in my neighborhood

10Gb to the home? Where have you seen this, and.for how much? I had no idea that was a thing for residential

Ahh I missed that!

Makes more sense then – that seemed a bit long for any update

I booted up that system and after waiting an hour or so for Windows Update to finish

… 🙄

Crazy workstation though – wish I had need for all that power so I could justify buying one to play with

Me and my brother would sit in the magazine aisle at the grocery store and pore over Nintendo Power like it was a religious text lol

Also, you just made me remember getting all those demo discs with PlayStation magazine

I used RedReader for many years. It’s one of the few apps that was given an accessibility exclusion, but I still don’t want to get back on Reddit. Now I’m currently trying out Connect, Liftoff, Jerboa, and others to see which I like the best for Lemmy.

Yes I’ve used rename! In my case, I just need to rename and reorganize a bunch of movies & associated metadata files into directories. I don’t have too many stored digitally now, so I think just shaving the yak and doing it manually via file share will work for now.

Never been an emacs user… Seems like quite a rabbit hole

I’ll look into sequelize! Also, we are undergoing a training right now. I have some previous experience from $lastJob with k8s, but I’m sure my knowledge is out of date so glad to be doing it.

Helix + zellij huh? I’ll definitely try it out
