I used to check this occasionally and it was always fairly accurate but this year in particular it has been wildly wrong. Loads of random torrents appearing on my IPs and then chec…

I'll give this a go, battery has been draining pretty quick with all this multi agent dev

I'm not sure I the Tamagotchi deserves a place on here. Did anything really kill it? It was kind of just a fad in the late 90s and its still around, not as popular as its fad stage…

I came from dealing with various node / ruby / python versions across multiple projects where I used nvim / rbenv and some python manager. Miss is nice as you can just switch to it…

I had this exp too, but I trialed the pro sub a few weeks back and it has been great. I have no complaints this time

Not sure about stress, but definitely have the same exp re sleep. If I’m tired the ringing is very noticeable, when I wake up early after a late night it can be deafening. But besi…

I loved GTA II and spent hours playing it when I was about 14 or so. I don't recall keeping up with III's development at all and I remember seeing it popup on Kazaa one day, in an …

Gemini has been fantastic for me the last month or so.

Ugh it annoys me so much that the desktop etc is all in one drive without me setting it that way. But then there is still a desktop/documents directory in the usual spot under your…

It’s a fantastic feature and works really well, my problem is I can never invest the required time to learn the interface. It all falls apart when I need to switch modes to move so…

Our Magna tiles get so much use. I should really buy the kids some more. And that Modu stuff looks so cool, I’ve never seen that before.

5 year old - laser tag, brain rot toys 8 year old - roller skates, make up/face paint And just random stocking stuffers / books, etc. One neat thing we found was a frog dissection …

Also AI could also generate some code to enable the artists to make their own unique games. There will be loads of creative types out there who can unlock some neat concepts with A…

Guess it's time for my annual reading of Andy's Crash blog :D

Yeah that part was amazing. It was 2006, I'd softmoded the Xbox with the Splinter Cell hack. I had 2MBs ADSL capped @ 10GB for international data but unlimited national. I was in a…

That wasn't a condescending comment.

I had a similar script a few years ago when I refused to give up my aging Macbook Air and built a server to host my dev env. I had an rsync command that would sync the differences …

Serious question here, are you all good? Your responses here sound like you’ve been through something.

Fantastic, my kids are going to love this. Seconding the call for a video. Also the instructions to remove the quarantine attr don't work. xattr -cr ~/Downloads/FartScrollLid.app 1…

We have quite a few road side stalls like this around where I live in NZ, Honey, eggs, swedes are a common one. You hear of the odd theft from them every now and then but for the m…

I have a failed 1x1m cnc build due to a lack of rigidity. I'm in the process of rebuilding it as a wall mounted plotter in my office. I could spend all day watching it move

I started to notice this in a big way at my last job which I started in 2013. We were a rails shop and by about 2016 I was noticing most new hires would have no idea how to write a…

I use Joplin. I made a little extension which generates a file with Monday's date and then the days + dates as headers. On Monday I copy anything I still want from the previous wee…

Ahh "sharing" the magic, cool thanks. The UX is a complete fail, my comment having a moan about it all has over 90 upvotes now, yet I'm wrong. But the reason I'm wrong is because t…
