I had a program that came with special CD Labels for the printer where you could make your own cool CD label covers. that was fun.
Or going into a Dreamcast IRC channel to download games and burn them to disk. I think I only ever actually bought like 2 Dreamcast games, Shenmue and Seaman, the rest were just burned to CD-Rs.
I read the manuals for everything now. I think it’s because when I was a kid videogames used to come with great manuals and half the fun was just reading through those. One of my favourites was for the original Heavy Gear on PC. that thing was like a hybrid manual and lore bible. Or old Flight Sim games with manuals that were as thick as text books.
Now you don’t get shit.
I don’t see how it would save time as someone whose job is to currently undo what “time” it “saves”. You can give Claude Code the most fantastic and accurate prompt in the world but you’re still going to have to explain to it how something actually works when it gets to the point, and it will, that it starts contradicting itself and over complicating things.
You said yourself he has to reiterate through the code with the LLM to get something that works. If he already knows it, he could just write it. Having to explain to something HOW to write what you ALREADY know can’t possibly be saving time. it’s Coding with extra steps.
God bless vibe coders, because of them I’m buying a new PC build this week AND I’ve decided to get a PS5.
Thank you Vibe Coders, your laziness and and sheer idiocy are padding my wallet nicely.
/me a 42 year old that uses Arch
I take that personally.
/me adjusts my knee high socks.
basically “autopilot” for claude code.
I can tell you exactly what happened. “Hey Claude, I need to configure and setup a DB with Firebase to store images from our application.” and then promptly hit shift+tab and then went to go browse Reddit.
nothing was tested. nothing was verified. They let the AI do its thing they checked in on it after an hour or so. once it was done it was add all, commit -m “done”, push origin master. AI doesn’t implement security stuff. there was zero security here.
he probably thinks it’s Asmongold or something.
“I’m a vibe coder, I use cocaine daily. All I have to do is come up with a prompt and let the cocaine do the rest. it’s at the point now all my managers insist I use cocaine to meet deadlines.”
both. but majority are master cause that’s the default and I’m too lazy to change nor do I really care.
I mean…it’s not very good though. I’ve used it a handful of times and decided it wasn’t needed. I can just use Lutris or Steam or just straight up Wine itself and they all work better than Bottles.
Hello Hyprland. for 5 Euros a month you’ll have access to “Hyprland premium” which has yet to be disclosed as to what Hyprland premium even is.
that compositor is just shady front and back with a very questionable dev and maintainers.
if you utilize it as a tool it’s fine. it can be a good rubber duck or github copilot saves you like 2 seconds to just hit tab to complete something that’s correct in the preview. But utilizing it to do anymore than that and you’ve lost. Claude will constantly make things up or tell you to use libraries that have been orphaned for like 5+ years.
anyone who says “it can help you write better code” are fooling themselves. I’ve yet to see it.
For the DC? yeah, it would play burned CDs no problem.
For the playstation? not sure. I had mine modded so I could import games from Japan but I don’t believe it could play burned CDs.
Xbox and the 360 were easy to mod though and you could play burned games on those also.
But yeah the Dreamcast just did it right out of the box. no mods required.
