movies, tv, and occasional audio books. A good blueray reader costs a bit but it is worth it to have them legally

I picked up a new hobby of buying Linux ISOs from thrift stores. I usually get them for $1/each. Up to 300 now - all mine. Jellyfin is great to organize them

Cool idea. I tried the Memos app for this idea for a while. My problem is I never get around to organizing things /shrug

Just yesterday I was thinking about gpt-5.6-luna. I made it my default model in Hermes during its fist week of launch. It was just as good as 5.5 which was my previous default. But over the last 2 or 3 weeks I've seen how dumb it is now. I have to be very explicit with it.

For example, I used to be able to prompt "Check the system logs on <server> for...." and it would just figure it out. Yesterday I asked "Did <service> on <server> complete the overnight job" and all it said was "that service is not installed on my host"

I had to tell it to ssh into the server and run journlctl to check it

Anecdotal, I know, but they all seem to be less capable with time.

_edit_ I use the same reasoning level of `medium`

This is my first iphone since the original. I thought that is just how it was.

Yeah, it was "handoff". It was always taking a long second or two before it would open. Now it is instant

100% not sarcastic. I disabled all continuity options and the annoying delay to bring up the context menu is gone. My phone is my only apple product. I don't need it.

It was a mono repo with 30+ projects Most were react apps. I’m going to guess at least 5000 files in the repo.

And yes, node_modules was excluded.

I’m trying to phrase this to not be “that guy” but have you used Code on large code bases? Vscode on my m2 Mac routinely crashed when doing file search. That is why I switched to zed.

I do miss the configurablity though

I once read that Hershey has put a calories cap of 250 on a serving of their candy. That jives with what I see on the store shelves. I wonder if Mars did the same thing and perhaps the reduction in size was due (at least in part?) to that.
