Had to basically reinstall my PC every 3 months (if i used vr in those times, which i stopped after a few reinstalls) because the mixed reality app somehow broke itself again with no amount of updates/fixing/reinstalling or terminal work fixing it. I tried, i tried alot but all the hours were just wasted since only a clean install worked, for about 2-3 months until it just decides it doesnt want to open again.

The windows mixed reality portal has then made me stop playing vr completly about 5-6 years ago because i couldnt justify reinstalling everything every few months for a few hours of beatsaber and then like 3-4 years ago i FULLY switched to linux so now its just a paperweight anyway (i think they removed the support in modern windows anyway iirc)

Basically just waiting for the steam frame each and every day currently

This is my first Minecraft Mod and the first project i made that interacts with the network, has logins/accounts and does APIs.

I am really not good and thus the UI (far worse on mobile) and especially the Code is bad, but i would have never expected to get it working at all, much less this functional. But i am still far from done, i still want to improve the overall code quality, add the inventory and ender chest, achievements (maybe even custom ones so vanilla clients can earn and view them without having to change anything locally. IDK yet) and more.

If someone wants a small demo, i have it running on my server to test while I am developing at: https://grisu-ftp.de (If you find any issues lmk :)

While this is by far not as cool as the other stuff on here i still would like to show it off and gather some first feedback. This is my first Java project that goes above the Standard stuff in school like scanners/calculators and so I have probably done obvious beginner mistakes.

"common knowledge that you can't grant any trust to the client" is the exact reason it annoys me so much when peoples solution to cheaters in video games is basically just "Rootkit my pc please"

As long as the anticheat is Client sided, you shouldnt put trust in it.

I just dont see how Remove-Item is superior to rm and thats just the first example that came to mind (Atleast there are aliases for most stuff afaik so i guess its not AS bad).

I also just googled and there seem to be 3-4 different commands (not including the aliases) that do EXACTLY the same thing, atleast the Microsoft article used 1:1 the same description for all of them.

Most of my issues with it are probably just skill issues tho since like i said i dont really use or know it alot so i am happy to be corrected :) I mean if every Windows Sysadmin tells me how great powershell is, i cant just assume that they all are wrong (Or maybe its just the only way todo something thats otherwise simple over the terminal on windows, idk)

I would just want to test around a bit locally, maybe let it do its thing over a weekend just to see the result and then stop it again

So for me fixing a keyboard i spilled cola on fast, cheap and without sending the device away is far far far more important than replacing an entire laptop when it disintegrates into dust.

My first GPU had an issue where the fans had a really annoying whirring sound and it got replaced.

I had a (pre-)release motherboard (one of the last FW16 pre-order batches) which had an issue with uneven heat on the CPU, also got replaced.

In both cases i could just use the Laptop like normal until the new parts arrived so i had no "downtime"

Broke my keyboard, a few days later i had a new one that didnt even take a minute to swap. Wanted to upgrade my GPU twice, didnt even take 10 minutes. Biggest difficulty was swapping the motherboard, but even that was easy.

The ports i need change all the time, and i can just swap them all the time :D

While a framework might be a bit expensive, overpriced even, i think the repairability and upgradeability is worth it for me

I really like the comments on HN, they are very often really interesting and you actually often learn something new that actually matters.

Even the announcement "trailer" of the steammachine showed it getting used on a Computer monitor with mouse and keyboard in desktop mode. They even said they want to improve the "Desktop mode only" experience iirc and for there more apps than just games are important.

And i personally probably wouldnt have bought a steamdeck if it wasnt possible to just go into desktop mode and do whatever.

I have no idea how electron apps look "internally" but it doesnt sound too bad.

Sort of like you can unzip .deb files and use them somewhere else, if what i heard was correct (never tried it myself)

Since i have seen this video this question has been in my mind from time to time.

And i dont think gpt3 was best, but it felt like it actually listened. Now i tell it: "You did this and this wrong, i specifically told u the exact opposite. Can you please do what i asked you?" And then it says something like: "Oh yes my bad, you are right and very very smart to have caught that you must be a super genius. I will now do what you asked me" Does the same wrong thing again. and again and again.

I ask it to fix a mistake, it tells me it fixed it, gives 1:1 the same thing with more errors.

It also feels like it forgets mid convo way faster than it did.
