Hi there.

Gen AI is for losers. You did not write or "vibe code", you purchased code from an AI vendor. They fooled you into paying them to turn your brain off. You're not being paid more to produce more. Don't be bullied into using it - so what if you are "left behind." That sounds nice actually.

This is really neat and something I thought about myself.

An OS that would run on this is Inferno, though I am not sure of the state of the 68k compiler.

I made new friends through an open source project. I attended BUG/LUG meetings and other tech events. There are plenty of alternative social events that you don't need a phone for. Email and even irc will do. I am a phone minimalist so its similar situation as I have no social media accounts.

> Technology is sadly increasingly homogenising around Unreal Engine 5

I kinda get the commodification of games engines and Unreal. I am sure a lot of us saw the gaming revolution unfold, watching gaming companies one-up each other in graphics and interactivity. But once you get to the point of UE5, Unity, or Godot there is little need or value to make a game engine from scratch anymore.

Don't get me wrong, if you want to write an engine, go for it. But if you just want to make a game then an existing engine is good enough.

There are a surprising number of Linux thing running webstuff likely hacked together and shipped. I find a lot of vending machine computers on eBay that boot Ubuntu or whatever and start some sort of webservice thing.

> if it's done in a reasonable and sustainable way.

There are a lot of things that would work fine if done in a reasonable and safe way but we have plenty of examples of people making unreasonable and unsafe decisions.

He was also a fan of Bevis and Butthead which made me laugh picturing the man who played Captain Picard laughing at two cartoon idiots laughing at a dog turd.

> I’ve literally never ordered from any of these 3 companies. ...

>Don’t get it.

I get that it takes full advantage of human tendency to be lazy. A friends stepson works a crappy job seemingly to pay for his door dash. The kid saves almost no money and is always asking his mother for money here and there while living at home with no expenses outside of his door dash and video game purchases. He couldn't afford to buy a bicycle.

Pretty much this. Voting in this election will give me no peace of mind.

So did I and we were taught to use "they" when the "sex" of the subject was unknown.
