no2 is what annoyed me the most. I liked it for the most part, but it was never updated, even on the software side we had very few changes. It could've been great.

Yeah, that would be the last time I show up to that gym. I'd feel it was my fault. and that I was bothering them.

I think the issue is, you can't take photos or bring friends with you into your lucid dream, so you have nothing to share with others.

It's kinda a solo activity.

SimCopter was the best game!! You could even fly around your own simcity build!

Damn, I can't reply to the girls comment, but it's back for them too :P

My app launcher loads as soon as it's triggered (4 fingers swiped in). There is a weird 5ms glitch on the zoom in animation, but otherwise it loads in within a few ms, and scrolling is smooth. I'm on a M2 MBA macOS 26.3.1

Edit, but don't take this as me saying I like the current state of macOS. There are plenty of weird edge cases I wish they'd fix, but on the whole the OS works fine for me.

This is what stops me from doing it. I used to host all my own stuff, with custom setups etc etc. But you end up having no free time, or reduces it at best, and it'll break down at the least convenient time.

New comment by sysworld in "CPU-Z and HWMonitor compromised"

sysworld — Fri, 10 Apr 2026 20:30:18 +0000

Personally I'm fine with the scammy ads. I feel most people who would use CPU-Z are pretty technical and should be able to tell the difference between an ad download button vs the real one.

That, and you should already be using an ad blocker.

Hard to believe the video when they use all AI generated clips.

It's also abused by soo many devs, just wanting there app to be seen 24/7 by the users, regardless if there app gains anything from being in the menu bar. That's why many users run out of space. Most people don't look at settings or ways to remove them (if they even give an option), so they quickly fill up the menu bar. Back in the day without a notch, people would have so many that some menu items would disappear too.

The Azure management UI, yes, so slowww. But the services (VMs etc) have been good.

ooooh, they're migrating to Azure, now everything makes sense.

They should've setup an endowment fund, could've been self sustainable by now.

Even the built in venv would've solved most of his issues too. But I agree with him in that Python documentation could be better. Or have a more unified system in place. I feel like every other how to doc I read on setting something Python up uses a different environment containment product.

I find it helps if you paste in the the ffmpeg manual and get the ai to use that as source. Helps it stick to real params.

I wasn't a fan either. But you get used to it.

I don't mind using Apple's native Hypervisor framework, it's better then QEMU (speed/overhead), but Apple has no support to passthrough USB ports. https://github.com/utmapp/UTM/issues/3778
