Tried debugging some issues by disabling my ad blocker and youtube is absolutely unusable without it.
Just non stop unskippable ads.

Anyone want an indexed content addressed database oracle for their #blockchain use case?

One of our meow meow beasts has gotten in the habit kf waking us up by giving my partner cat tongue kisses untilt they wake up and pet her 😅 It's cute but also I could use the extra sleep before my alarm

5 hours into playing Cloudpunk and I accidentally figured out I could access the world map the whole time and could see more than just the minimap to navigate 😝

Sadly despits my willpowers insistance on working late yet another night my body and mind refuse to focus on code.

High key I think corporate advertising is one of the biggest plagues on humanity in the last 100 years. A lot of the awful AI shit we're seeing stems from it as well as a lot of the shady data collection.

I feel it'd be for the collective consciousness if this concept were banned entirely or at least stunted to the point it's not commercially viable.

@hank Yeah I think my main discomfort ks with apps assuming they can own my entire screen. I prefer giving them little corners to live in or stack on each other. Mobile breakpoints are sk handy for increasing data density for example

"Prompt engineering" this local copilot to actually do what I want. I'm gonna try to treat it like a codereview instead of "instructions" for what it should do. Apparently prepending an argument to a list of function calls is too big brain unless I word it just right. Though it's also just a 4GB model so what more can I expect

@skryking Every time I look at cross platform GUI toolkits I get sad. Seems that Electron / Tauri are the most accessivle cross platform with their web stuff, followed by QT with decent reach but complex SDK setup.

Killer feature of the web: Opening the same app in two tabs so you can be navigated to two views at once.

@skryking That's one thing I appreciate about most web apps. At least I can open them in another window. Sadly something like Element seems to keep a bunch of state in the render thread and only allows one instance at a time which I think is bonkers for a chat app.

Sad again about how single window applications are the norm. So much screen real estate wasted and so much multitasking limited just cause the app decided it should handle tabs / views and only let you load a single window.

Playing Cloudpunk for the first time. It's a neat game. I was expecting it to have racing minigames and escort quests or something but it's mostly story driven with some open world exploration and trinket collection. The little npc convos and side quests really make it for me.
