Vibe coding ain’t any different from going to any website in the world, copying whatever code you can find, and then wondering why your PC has been infected with ransomware because you’re too dumb to understand what any of the code does.

It’s also extremely unprofessional, in my opinion, and, also in my opinion, shows you don’t understand a programming language enough to be using it in a professional setting ( for software regardless of whether it’s private or public use ) whilst also being too lazy to read any form of documentation.

Anyone who calls themselves an"vibe coder" are people I assume never passed kindergarten because clearly they lack any form of critical thinking.

The one I hate the most is him putting a measurable size to a voxel in minecraft. Dumbest thing because it ment people can make dumb claims about the player being super strong based on pixels being based on a “specified measurement”. Nobody gives a rats ass about that and I swear the only reason people care/cared was because he did it.

Putting weight and measurable size using real world units to a voxel in a sandbox game is just so dumb. There’s no actual way to confirm it because it’s literally just a bunch of pixels on a screen that form a square shape and can be stretched/narrowed depending on your monitor size when doing what 99.999% of people playing the game do: playing the game instead of rigorously analyzing the pixels on a texture sheet.

I was gonna bring those up. I’ve only ever seen them twice, from the same person. They look weird, but I gotta imagine that they’re at least somewhat comfortable to still be in use today. Practical too, considering they’re the only type of socks I know of that you can wear with flip-flops/toe dividing sandals without damaging your socks.

You confirmed my suspicions. I immediately looked at the tag and knew it probably wasn’t a Discman because there ain’t no way Sony wouldn’t have trademarked that name.

Ain’t no way that’s a Discman. I have a Sony one from the 90s on my desk, for one. Two, I thought Sony had the trademark on Discman? And three, that’s Panasonic and doesn’t have Discman anywhere on it.

So unless Discman wasn’t trademarked and became synonymous with CD players, I refuse to accept that’s a discman!

The part that sucks about all this is that there aren’t any tools to fully migrate my account over to a new instance. Comments and posts will be left behind, but at least they’ll hopefully remain federated for as long as possible so I can look back at them in the future.

Pirates Software

Large Company To Police:

They pirated it after the purge ended. If you don’t destroy their property, I’ll make sure you get fired and your life forfeit!

I don’t get angry about a post using AI images, but it definitely tells me what “artist” to avoid if it’s on an art community and helps tell me who couldn’t even bother looking up images online or cannot be bothered to do even poorly drawn images for memes.

I’ve got at least 2 on my desk. Both from my new phones ( the one I accidentally fried in a lake and the replacement I got ). They’re both connected to some little piece of magnet strip that I have no idea where it came from.

IDK, but it certainly looks aesthetically pleasing, to me at least.

For AI bots, yeah maybe, but that sure as hell ain’t gonna work on a real person who is using deepfake tools to fake their appearance for a live video call.

Absolutely wild stuff, but definitely not unexpected. Scammers gonna scam, just now they have some of the greatest tools to scam people.

I’ve been eyeing that one. Ever since maybe a couple months ago I’ve haven’t been liking Auxio as much due to UI changes and Symphony has definitely caught my eye.

Edit: I was thinking something else, but Symphony looks promising after giving it a look at on f-droid.

Talking about being able to play gamecube games on switch 2 as though Dolphin doesn’t exist… or rather they wish it didn’t.

Saw a video on this earlier and it really makes me think we’re absolutely nowhere near an AI being able to generate a full-on or even a partially playable video game in real time any time soon, much to the dismay of the tech/AI bros.

Also, they talk about making old games portable as though you can’t just boot up a game like Ty the Tasmanian Tiger on an emulator like PCSX2 or Dolphin on a device like a Steam Deck anything similar, all without needing powerful enough systems to run a whole extremely in depth simulation of our universe.

Considering every single other attempt to get Bytedance to sell it has failed, I’m sure this one will definitely work. /s

The example I thought of was someone who we watched a video on in an art class I took in highschool. He was in a wheelchair, either quadra or just paraplegic, can’t remember which, but he had a whole set up where he could have his canvas move and rotate so he could work on specific parts of it. Don’t remember his name, but definitely vaguely remember the video, so it definitely left some form of impact on me.

I would also assume the AI “art” bros talking about AI “art” for disabled people would be furious at those people for disproving their claims. Especially since those same bros have no excuse other than lack of drive and talent as to why they aren’t anywhere near as good of artists as people with disabilities.

I guarantee those AI “art” defenders would be absolutely furious if they saw even a single of the vast amount of talented disabled artists, past or present, because it goes against their narrative that disabled people need AI art, which allows them to appear superior.

Would love to try them if my phone, which was bought outright from Samsung themselves, allowed me to unlock the bootloader to allow me to try it. Might, if possible, try at least one of them on an old S10, if I can get the bootloader unlocked.

I totally wish I could install an actual Linux based (I don’t consider android Linux) distro on my current phone and also be able to install something like Waydroid with some sort of sandbox for it. Though I’m pretty sure my budget Samsung would fry itself if I tried doing that considering I can’t even unlock the bootloader without it freezing up indefinitely.
