After hearing Zed has vim mode, I might give it a try. Currently my workflow is just opencode + nvim/opencode

Another reason to avoid Anthropic products now.

I’ve always been fascinated about Arc Raiders since I’m more of a solo player these days. Might try it out next time it’s on sale, especially since I heard it runs flawless on Linux.

Gemma is genuinely impressive, for many trivial quick questions it can replace search engines on my iPhone. Although for reasoning I definitely wouldn’t say it (Gemma 3n E2B) is smart, it unsurprisingly struggled with the classic car wash question.

Wish them all the best and safe travels. I’ll be tuning in as you never know when the next crewed mission will be, probably not another 50 years if advancements in space travel happen.

I'm out of the loop on this whole debacle but can't OS providers just say "Not for use in California" and be done with?

Only reason I still download from Apple Music to device is for lossless and hi-res lossless, which would otherwise use a lot of cellular data.

I have about 4 or 5 Airtags and haven't actually had any practical use for them, but just having them on my keys and expensive camera backpack is a nice peace of mind. My sister however, was able to track down her suitcase which the airline supposedly "forgot" to load and got compensation for it.

Personally I've only ever used Claude Code for coding.

I’ve been running CachyOS with Hyprland on my RTX3070 with no glaring issues. But eventually I plan to switch to a Radeon card.

It’s akin to being in the AWS ecosystem and having to switch to Oracle. It’s less so MS Office but rather the SAAS and enterprise security stuff in 365

I truly despise all Microsoft software, from Windows 10/11 to SQL Server, Visual Studio and lastly Office/M365. But enterprises love it and it will often cost them millions to migrate to something else.
