A lot of words, but essentially says nothing useful.

If GitHub is the wrong shape for this new world. Well, show me a hint of what the new world should look like?

To me it seems like everyone is frustrated, mostly at how fast things are changing, but not necessary because the existing tools suddenly became trash/irrelevant.

A lot of us are still contending with the fact that large amount of code is being produced and we don't know what the fuck to do about it. And we're less intimate with the code and product we ship than we were before.

I'm not familiar with SteamOS and Valve hardware in general. Could I play something like Overwatch on this, and connect keyboard and mouse? Could I play other PC games like World of Warcraft?

World of Warcraft is the closest thing to the metaverse. But I'm biased since it's my favorite game (TBC, WoTLK, etc)

What's an alternative library that doesn't turn large/complex frontend code into spaghetti code?

So skills are basically preset system prompts, assuming different roles etc? Or is there more to it.

I'm a little confused.

Can't see myself paying more than $200 for this device.

I had to double check the domain, I thought it was a fake image gen. So weird.

I don't think you realize that those two issues are related. https://x.com/zei_squirrel/status/1895539811576135866

But then again, most Americans seem to have no issue with AIPAC having near full control over congress. Because if they did, we'd have seen more outrage and action.

Antisemitism is a form of bigotry, no more or less special than other forms of bigotry and racism.

If you read any significant amount of history you'd know that already, and you wouldn't need to prove that Antisemitism is real. Of course it is. So is anti-[insert religious or ethnic group]

Curious who uses iMac over a MBP with an external monitor? Is it mainly for front desk, businesses, and perhaps people with large homes and need stationary mac?

Opening large files, such as large Figma files, eats up RAM like no tomorrow

Been using it for 10 years. It's my favorite mouse to use. Scrolling and tap gesture is the main reason I prefer it. I also like touching glass/aluminum over plastic.

not sure if this is sarcasm or just gulliability and willful ignorance

New comment by emadabdulrahim in "Israel shuts down local Al Jazeera offices"

emadabdulrahim — Sun, 05 May 2024 22:45:22 +0000

That was nearly 5 months ago. Did Israel take any of those measures? Or did you stop following the news since?

Again. Reality check.

Provide any evidence of the accusations you’re hurling, please.

Except that Israel has no business engaging in armed conflict or "war" on a territory they occupy and control. That's the only legal issue that matters. Any armed conduct by Israel in Gaza is by international definition deemed ILLEGAL. There's no right of self defense when you're the predator.
