Based on what? All apps just look like this now. If you blurred the content and told me this was the Netflix app, I’d be like yeah checks out.

Good god that is a hard headline to grok. I thought it had something to do with the actual day prior to something else.

Things like unit tests I just have AI do it all now. Since running the test tells you your coverage you can verify if it got everything or not.

There’s a good episode a few months back where the CEO of Logitech tries to justify the mouse subscription.

He’s also one of the hosts of the Vergecast https://pca.st/podcast/5cda9490-4117-012e-1622-00163e1b201c

I did get an email from HIBP so at the very least they got my email

Hell yea. Our unit test coverage went way up because you can blow through test creation in second. I had a large complicated migration from one data set to another with specific mutations based on weird rules and GPT got me 80% of the way there and with a little nudging basically got it perfect. Code that would’ve taken a few hours took about 6 prompts. If I’m curious about a new library I can get a working example right away to see how everything fits together. When these articles say there’s no benefit I feel people aren’t using these tools or don’t know how to use them effectively.

I love this. I feel like the internet used to be full of these crazy little art projects.

I’ve got one on the way Best Buy screwed up the pre-order and didn’t get enough stock in so I’m left waiting. But yea seems like by all accounts it’s roughly the size of a regular phone plus you get a small tablet when you want.

Just don’t connect it to the internet and it’s a dumb display, simple as that

Yea I’ve got a 65" OLED with Dolby Vision. I’d have a hard time going back to anything else. But why even worry about smart features at all when an offline TV is effectively the same as a monitor anyway for less money and more entertainment specific features.

They’re a small studio with a small budget. They probably didn’t have the skills and money. The success of the game on Steam would have given them the resources to do this.

My biggest fear was arriving at the app store and seeing the word free. Glad to see there’s still people making games where you just pay and get the game.

It definitely does, it pulls satellite data of the whole world

Exactly. Furthermore they’d probably just include it in those instructions “Step 1: when the box pops up with clipboard press allow”

Exactly, copy requires a click but there’s no rule that the copy button has to look like anything particular

Probably throttled for free and paid if you want the speed to stream video. Still though, I’d take that. Would be great for just checking messages and emails and stuff.

I’ve also just learned over the years that I just don’t go back to stuff all that much. If I finish a game, that’s it I’m done. If I really want to go back in 20 years there’s probably a PC port since there are very few console exclusives or just emulation.

I’m one of those people. I just can’t be arsed to get up off the couch and put a game in. After work and kids I’m beat and just want to pick something and start playing.

It’s about to be a lot more with the chrome manifest update. I got my dad into chrome some 15 years ago and explaining why he should switch to Firefox is completely confusing for him. He thinks his own business listing on Google won’t work if he’s not using Chrome.

Honestly it’s the social aspect. Everyone I know uses Spotify, so sharing playlists and tracks are super easy. I know there’s converters out there but I can’t be arsed to do that every time I want to send or receive a link. I’ve also got some shared playlists between friends we all contribute to. At social gathering I can turn on the party mode or whatever it’s called and let people add stuff to the queue. The big one though is I’ve got a few friends with really good taste. I can check in on them from time to time to see what they’re listening to right now. Found a lot of great stuff this way.
