They’re literally equating listening to a podcast from your phone in the shower with doing drugs/drinking beer.

This is some boomer shit

Starting to get a little long in the tooth these days, the pro is still my primary streaming box but I got a random ONN stick from Walmart while on vacation and its noticably snappier and on a newer android OS then the shield.

I’ve had to replace our batteries in our code lock a couple times in 6 months, but I use rechargable batteries so and just swap it out

Wow called out

I had a hysterical family member reading the DSA and saying “they want to abolish the police and prisons, that’s crazy to just let all those people walk the streets.”

I attempted to clarify that the prison industrial complex is so corrupt and broken it needs to be completely replaced and their reply was, “well the website doesn’t say that so what am I supposed to believe?”

Makes the day really easy ngl and I make cool stuff for my team 🤷

I would assume so as well indeed.

There’s a lot of those on HF already, search heratic or uncensored

LLMs can have a little peanut butter, as a treat.

Sure just like Republicans were against big tech a few years ago.

I do a lot of “vibe coding” but just put my stuff out with MIT or GPL depending, its mostly just stuff for me and I have no intention of trying to monetize the code itself.

Though I’m a weirdo and don’t have a profit motive aside from living a moderate life and making useful things for myself.

I feel like in general too many things are created for the sole reason of trying to generate profit and it bastardizes everything, though I get it, look at the world we live in.

Edit: Also been trying to move away from Copilot/ChatGPT and have expanded my homelab enough to be able to get really competent use out of open source models.

Qwen3.8 27b is pretty damn good when I was used to using Copliot Raptor (god that model was rough but still least free…) or constantly running out of quota on ChatGPT

I also have always been the techy nerd people went to for help, so I have a lot of troubleshooting and general “how programs work” knowledge that helps me steer design, took some OOC classes and such over the years just could never get over the hump to actually write myself so LLMs have been so transformative to me.

Yeah it’s about reusing something already made.

ETFs by a mile, like I see others said, being a good landlord means it being a whole job.

Way easier to just plop some money across some ETF diversification.

Only thing I’d say is I’d assume landlording is more a “you get what you put in” kind or situation where you can work harder to do better, etfs/investing is much less in your control.

That’s the part I don’t get, is there worse then the quoted text that they said or?

Pretty benign comment imo

There are absolutely rabid anti-AI people on Lemmy even who think it’s just autocorrect.

Thin clients

If you’re actually curious, same idea as not knowing how to use a search engine in the 2000s/2010s

It’s widely ubiquitous technology that can be extremely useful if used properly and not knowing how will waste a lot of time and likely frustrate you to the point you just give up or ask you family tech person.

This was my gut feeling, bullshit article that makes no sense.

You don’t really have to “hit it big” even moderate success (comparatively) is enough to pay the bills for a long while from what I’ve heard from a few indie devs online.
