I was a dumbass and withdrew my first one when I changed jobs around age 26. That job had profit sharing too. Such a waste.

401k now.

Yea. especially if you use flakes heavily. It’s so decentralized it could take longer to catch.

I have to use AI tools for my work, so arguably I am knowledgeable about that topic (programming). I have seen Claude code do pretty good work. HUGE CAVEAT it works well because we spent a lot of time building out our architecure and the really complex parts have an easy to follow pattern. It’s standing on the backs of giants.

If you do something like software engineering and you have a significant body of existing good work for it to pull from. Claude can be pretty exceptional.

It’s not great at breaking new ground though.

I have a 3090 that I will replace with an AMD card the second it makes financial sense for me.

That’s my take too… it’s certainly a soild choice, but not incredibly exciting.

Interesting, how did that turn out?

It’s definitely not 60FPS but it is a smooth 30 finally. Bigger deal in my opinion is it hits 30FPS without overly strong FSR as it was previously. The picture is more than just barely playable now.

BG3 actually runs great now. Larian has been grinding away at it all year. Native Linux and all.

Cyberpunk is playable if you avoid the expansion areas.

Yea I bounced off Bazzite because I needed to run plex. And I couldn’t get a container to run reliably on it. It’s still a cool distro though.

Edit: typo

Whopper from Burger King. No pickles, add cheese and bacon.

My wishlist item is a volume slider for the UI sfx. I don’t want it muted, but I don’t need it screaming at me either.

This is the way. I always get culture shock visiting public discord servers.

Yes the old one. I don’t know what they decided to replace it for origins.

Towards Utopia (Nova Flare) from Stellaris, but I will say one of my favorite things in a video game is when suddenly a character sings a musical number, like The Great Mighty Poo from Conkers Bad Fur Day or Cosmic I from Psychonauts 2

Nice try… Netflix.

iOS developer here and I would switch in a heartbeat but unfortunately it’s not about the OS, it’s about the software that runs on the OS.

Most devs wont build for an OS that doesn’t have an audience. And users will put up with a lot of OS junk for their apps.

So it’s gonna be up to someone to make a linux phone and use their wallet to kickstart a software ecosystem. One won’t happen without the other, at least not at the scale of Google or Apple.

You can get around 30FPS but you have to deal with heavy FSR artifacting and it looks terrible.

Agreed. We don’t need it to perform like an RTX 5090 but just a smidge more power would get a ton of recent games into playable frame rates. I still don’t know how people play BG3 on the deck.

Must be some obscure keyboard layout.
