Been a JetBrains customer for over a decade, that used to use several of their IDEs, but don't expect to renew again. IMO they completely dropped the ball on AI integration, everything they forced into the IDE seem to be an annoyance.

Turns out I can easily get by on VS Code / Claude / ChatGPT / Antigravity. DataGrip is going to be hard to replace, but don't need anything more than the current version, hopefully they'll let me keep using it.

They haven't denied it yet, it's still under investigation. They may be able to workout they were the only country in this war with Tomahawks responsible for the triple-tap missile strike, after the mid terms. Or they may just move on from it and never talk about it again, like the Epstein files.

It's nice to have more options, so far I've managed to handle most of my Linux graphics needs with https://www.photopea.com - amazing broad support of document image formats, full-featured edits and all running in the browser.

anyway to do this with the Antigravity macOS App?

I'm trying it now for token heavy coding tasks, it's capable for many tasks but in noway compares to Claude/Sol - requires more prompts and the output isn't as good.

So just another mid-tier flash model, nothing exciting, but Antigravity has very generous quotas so it's a good workhorse model when your Claude/OpenAI subs run out.

And whilst it's a fast model, having to baby sit through and approve prompts every few seconds ends up making it slower than the Auto approve modes of Claude/ChatGPT - they definitely need an auto approve mode.

Considering doing exactly this, hopefully by the time M7 Ultra is out, the RAM Apocalypse will be over.

Still absurd, but it's $4K for an additional 164GB RAM.

Waited years for a decent Desktop lineup like this as I was hugely disappointed in the generation old M3 Ultra when it was released. Unfortunately it took Apple so long that the memory prices are now through the roof - USD $4000 for 164GB RAM upgrade is insane.

I may consider a M6 Mac Mini as a stop-gap whilst waiting out RAM Apocalypse to be over. Basically abandoning any ambitions of AI sovereignty and riding out subsidised LLM pricing for the next couple of years.

Been a happy Omarchy user for over a year, it's changed how I work with lots of Hyprland grouped windows spread across multiple virtual desktops which I can easily get to each with just a few keystrokes, it's a pretty fluid workflow after you get used to the keybindings.

Things I like about Omarchy:

   - Great job at blending Native Desktop, Web and CLI Apps - they launch & look the same
   - Polished themes - applied to most Apps (inc. running)
   - Built in installers for most dev tools, lets you get setup with most popular programming langs in a few secs
   - Built-in Windows (run in Docker container) great to have when you need it
Also something I only started doing recently is whenever I hit any Linux issue I now just paste it into ChatGPT and let it fix it for me which saved a lot of time porting my customizations over to Quattro. There's now built-in support for passing the crash info to your default AI Agent when a process crashes.

I'm using AI to power a lot of my desktop tasks now, even ended up buying Davinci Resolve yesterday since the paid version had scripting support which let me use ChatGPT to implement some video effects.
