50% of my code is written by Intellisense…

I am a male software engineer with art skills rivaled by a 5 year old…

I tried it (Mostly cursor, cline, claude code and the new copilot agent mode) a few times, maybe it will get better at some point but right now I am incredibly slow doing it and the mental load reviewing changes and trying to get it to do what I want is incredibly exhausting.

That is not true, we use Vision/LL Models to extract data and structure said data from documents. It is amazing how easy it is compared to OCR and needing to know where which information is located.

That’s the third option, I was just saying that at least they do sell replacement parts which today is not always the case for many companies.

That will be a shitty day. But the alternative is that they don’t sell replacement parts at all. To be fair we don’t even know how they treat discontinued products as all their printers are still in production.

Still my point stands, Bambu printers simply just work, I took my 15-20 minutes to set up and it did run flawlessly since then with only the maintenance the printer asks me to do. I can understand why people like that. This would be possible by opensourcing everything but somehow except for Prusa there is noone else who strikes that balance between ease of use and openness.

I own a BambuLab A1M as I want a printer that just works. And while yes it is all proprietary they do sell replacement parts for most parts.

While I will not forgive them for their latest moves I am quite happy, I turn it on, load an stl into BambuStudio and let it run without any issues at all.

My next printer will however probably be a prusa as they are Europeans and I love that they keep everything up to the user so far. But I can not deal with anything that is more DIY than a Prusa, it is a tool for my hobby…not the hobby itself.

Yes, but I actually would pay them for their services if they guarantee me that they will use that money to improve Firefox and Firefox services. I want to be a premium user of Firefox, but instead of trying to monetize their core userbase they annihilate them.

I actually like their advertising business idea and their other services and I understand that they need money but is whay they are doing right now really the best way?

Firefox, while I dislike their new FAQ and TOS I build it from source and the TOS does not apply.

I wish they would make Firefox Sync a self hostable product that they also host for you for like 5 bucks a month. I would pay for it (or any other way to directly give money to FX instead of Mozilla) like I do for Bitwarden.

This is perfectly legal, the law only says that the user must freely choose to allow the website to save said data. You can opt out here and not use that website.

That made it so much easier when I eventually will upgrade my printer… should have gone with Prusa in the first place.

My Laptop and Phone have encrypted drives, my Desktop doesn’t.

In Switzerland there is an app called Alertswiss which gets published by the government. They use it for critical alerts and you can also use it to see open warnings and where in the country there might be stuff happening.

Just do the same @California

The article says declining, not collapsed. The EU says it has to move quickly but with a potential shift (due to right-wing and conservative parties regaining power) from renewables to nuclear that could fail.

I mean the reason for why this happened is clear, Europe always relied on cheap Russian gas which is, at least for people who have just a sliver of humanity, a no go and there is no cheap replacement except for renewables. I guess if the Germans would have invested in renewables earlier on this whole issue would not exist.

I had the unfortunate experience that major upgrades on Debian did break the system twice alreay (different servers though). Doing small, incremental package upgrades seems like less of a risk, I can more easily track major package upgrades.

Also it is my homelab, not a production environment, a place where I try new things and play around. So curiosity is always a reason as to why I do things as well.

Moving my servers to Arch (EOS) as my trial for one during 2024 was successful, rock solid. Swapping my router to a Unifi Express as I am switching to an ISP which finally allows me to do so.

I would ask the company to provide me with a phone or an alternative way to unlock the door. What if I simply not own a smartphone?

Alternatively couldn’t you set up something like shelter and only install the play store in your work profile?
