    I can browse to jellyfin on my phone, ipad, laptop, TV etc watch any format (since it will transcode on the fly) and watch whatever I was watching from wherever I left it. It will …

    Gosh I hate most of these and I feel like most of them don't actually benefit the user. Zeigarnik Effect for example, the forced need to get 100% completion which definitely does n…

    An a4000..wow my dream machine. I have an ACA1221lc[0] in there. A firm believer in real hardware. I really want an easy way of swapping out the cf card so I can make my fuzix port…

    I've been slowly working on getting fuzix working on my amiga 1200. It boots the kernel I just don't have a file system for it yet. Though my 1200 has ~10MB RAM.

    I seem to spend half my life logging into thing's, confirming 2fa,confirming biometric data. Then when I go back to the first thing it's timed out and I have to sign in again.

    I started something similar but for Sydney with the ultimate goal of being an agent simulator, simulating everyone going to work etc. Project got a bit unwieldy and is on hold whil…

    Quarries were great but I hated the big hole it left in the ground.

    That has nothing to do with using AI, if the dev didn't check their work then that is being a bad dev.

    Lazy or efficient? A dev could spend an hour on something or 10 mins, if the outcome is the same what's does it matter?

    The tears of sysadmins are fairly cheap though.

    And how much does the hardware cost to run said models?

    Because cursor gives you access to tons of different models, not just the Claude models.

    There are still BBS you can access via telnet (and actual dial up if you really want), after the fifth one asks you for your full name, street address and phone Humber it gets a li…

    I used cursor with a mix of Gemini 3.1 and opus 4.6. It referenced the Amiga ROM Kernel Reference Manual, appendix C to create a boot block in assembly. It's a raw sector-mapped im…

    There's definitely been success in using generative AI for vintage Computers. Just the other day I got it to produce a bootable floppy for my Amiga 1200. It loads the network drive…

    Yeah I use a markdown to put progress in. It gets kinda long and convoluted a manual intervention is required every so often. Works though.

    I've found compactation kills the whole thing. Important debug steps completely missing and the AI loops back round thinking it's found a solution when we've already done that step…

    Falcon 4.0 BMS is probably the best F16 simulator out there right now and it's 'free'
