their ideal path leaves you at the other side of the yard.

ah yes live to work. Not work to live right?

ugh, "sick days", what an absurd concept. If you are too unwell to work, you don't go to work , of course, and get paid while at home, until you're healed. Not 7 days, not 2 days, just the amount of days required. putting a number on that. ugh

and 11 vacation days. Wauw. After a decades of working in Europe you can get a good amount of holidays. in 2025 I had 49 day of which 20 are that minimum you start out with. Every overtime and outside business hour call also gets recovered, that's an extra 3 days so we've passed 50.

but what else is new, in the 80 and 90s workers in US were boasting about doing 80hrs of work each week... like wtf :). They live to work, I prefer to work to live life.

how is this a negative? I would say, please do more like ugreen and support alternative OS, provide drivers and integrations.

any banking app for the last 20 years has basically been available only on google and apple devices, (none jailbroken, none rooted) to do proper attestation. So how this different...

in Belgium wero doesn't need any "big tech account" or whatever that means. it's natively build into banking apps , eg: https://www.kbc.be/retail/en/products/payments/self-banking/... https://www.bnpparibasfortis.be/en/public/individuals/daily-... etc

and since BNP is french, most likely for France peeps same (i)deal

Wolfenstein FOV was way too low, something like <70, which caused that feeling sick, try to get games where you can set you FOV to 85+ and it made a world of difference. motion sickness =gone

I use it as something that sits right below Sonnet for daily tasks that can be run in loops with validation checks, perfect. Anything more advanced...it just doesn't cut it.

Same experience with z-ai glm 5.1 btw... don't know what system prompt magic antrophic set in front of their Sonnet 4.6, but it does execute tasks efficiently.

claiming any of these deepseek models are close to opus is a bit optimistic

supports running dockers, running adguard DNS filtering, youtube-dl container and adblocker is such a time saver self hosted image hosting etc

so much potential lost... if you just use it as a "HDD on the network"

exactly. If you buy a music CD and lose that CD, while you have the license of the music on that CD, you should not get a free CD as replacement.

if you buy a software license, at least store the install binary?

at this time that just translates to "73% of software startups are just writing code in C++"

yes you could write your own code, your own prompt for LLM, or you could spend time on using the code / LLM output

my first multiplayer Quake was with Qtest in February 1996 using a null modem cable between two machines, and later on using coax cables and IPX in DOS

getting a multiplayer game running was a tech feat compared to the plug & play nature of things now. the learning curve is gone now.

look at this garbage reasoning. "oh no a shopping list, IT IS THE END OF THE WORLD"
