Excellent joke. No notes.

As another longtime Vi user - I had a hell of a time & wound up switching back lol

I think for a lot of folks Helix would be intuitive. Vi has her hooks in me, though.

Oh. I know. But you don’t understand - I’m compelled to type it out. I must.

clear. Constantly, and for no reason.

Thank you for the write-up!!

Another vote for the ErgoDox EZ. It’s pricey but very much worth the investment. Makes me hate every other keyboard I use lol

Notes while I’m watching:

1. The “vibe” is different - in my head I translated this to “he likes the GUI more”
2. Minetest has zero “story” / progression (so no Ender Dragon to gear up for & fight) - it’s purely a sandbox experience.
3. better performance, apparently runs on potato laptops pretty well
4. Mods are built-in, and don’t require tools like Forge or whatever to tweak a jar file ⬅️ THIS is cool!
5. Customization via the Settings menu

The “built-in support for mods” caught my eye. That’s pretty slick, and a headache with MC.

tl;dr - it runs on just about everything, and focuses on giving the player an easy-to-mod “sandbox” to play in.

I don’t get NixOS

It’s not for everyone. The idea is to have your entire system reproducible with a few configuration files, which you’d then ideally store in a VCS like git.

I haven’t messed with it, but there is something appealing about the ability to reboot to an older snapshot of the system if an update breaks something, or being able to use a config file to restore your system to the exact OS version and exact versions of whatever apps you use.

Yes indeed

Pretty sure he says (and the article quotes him)

“I want to wish you all a happy Father’s Day, but please, please, please wear a helmet. If I didn’t, honestly, I wouldn’t be here now.”

Holy nuts that bruise is a beaut! https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/1536/cpsprodpb/1a06/live/a42086d0-2b5e-11ef-bdc5-41d7421c2adf.png.webp

The marketing spin calling LLMs “Artificial Intelligence” doesn’t help.

This exact post has been floating around Reddit for at least a few months. Looks like ragebait.

Ive got a pair of 12TB Seagate drives in a NAS that have been running great for a few years, now.

I’ve heard varying opinions on Seagate’s longevity, so your mileage may vary. So far, they haven’t given me any issues.

I don’t buy into the myth that running your own mail server is “hard”.

For a server with only a few users, the hard part is outgoing mail, ensuring your mails get delivered. I did what I can here, and simply use a paid service on another domain for important things where delivery must be “guaranteed”.

It’s an interesting post, but saying it’s “not hard” and then “welllllll it’s not hard if you don’t bother with a spam filter & pay a professional company for ‘important’ email” is pretty misleading.
