I'm too lazy to write one out, but I had the thought that it would be funny to do one of those fake april fools graduation notices , but as someone who hasn't streamed in over a year

I've taken down my youtube videos, they haven't been deleted, they're just private, in case I change my mind

and to be clear, this isn't about anything someone did or me freaking out. I've just realized I really am a quiet person who likes to keep to himself and a small group of friends

Just in case anyone comes by looking for me or wonders where I've gone

I'm taking a step back form social media in general and trying to spend less time online

I'll still be on Discord, same username as here, if we're mutuals you're welcome to message me any time, even if you haven't before

that sucks

I have been reading the Fate Stay Night visual novel

this will increase my ability to complain about Fate Stay Night

The LLMephant in the room Fluxer was largely built before LLMs became a normal part of day-to-day development. I do use them now, but in a limited way: as a rubber duck and for mechanical implementation work when I already have a detailed spec. I treat the code it outputs like I would any external contribution. No LLM designed the system, wrote the specs, or made architectural decisions. That was all me. I only use LLMs when I already know the platform well enough to review the result properly. Ultimately, you'll have to take my word for it that I'm trying to handle this responsibly. Fluxer is a large, complicated codebase because the project itself is large and complicated. LLMs still aren't capable of autonomously producing anything like what Fluxer is today.

I'm not invested either way in this but I figure people might care about this bit about fluxer

I've slowly been reading through FSN

Shirou doesn't even have a servant yet and I think he's a more coherent and self aware character than any of the animes

Has anyone else noticed how many people seem to resent kids nowadays?

I see so many posts from parents, step parents, and teachers about how terrible their kids are, and how it's not their responsibility to take care of them

idk, I just feel bad for the kids growing up with all of this

htc is literally competing with their own product, but an older model, and one that I got because my friend saved it from the dumpster at AMD after 9 years of use

and somehow they're making the dumpster headset look good

I got a vive pro 2 and holy shit did htc do like everything they could to make this as annoying as possible

That meme where two guys are sitting on a bus driving on a mountain pass One guy is depressed and looking at the rocky mountain wall saying "My bluesky feed is full of weird fetish porn" the other guy is smiling and looking out at the wonderful view and saying "My bluesky feed is full of weird fetish porn"

also, it's always the kind of people who want to lecture me about other shit or "kids these days"

or they act like people leaving their carts in the parking lot hasn't been happening since forever

also, idk, it's one of those things that's always presented as very "common sense" and "rational" and I'm always super suspicious of those

it's always some sort of dog whistle or coded language or something like that

fuck the people who act like putting your shopping cart back is some indicator of morality or something

like, I usually put my cart back

but being weird and judgy about minor shit seems like a way bigger moral indicator than whether or not you put your cart back

Whenever it feels like the assholes are winning, remember, winners don't have to do this shit

These are losers holding on to stolen power trying to delay the inevitable

It was something out of the Star Wars Galaxies random name generator for wookiees and I just kinda kept using it

idk, if I'm just doing tech videos I guess it doesn't need to a persona, it could just be a title/descriptor

I was never much for the persona thing anyway

ngl, I'm thinking of making videos again

like, specifically focusing on pre-recorded tech tutorials and demonstrations, live content was never a good fit tbh

but I want to rebrand or start a new channel first, because nobody, including myself, knows how to pronounce Cowwan

I remember people saying this was going to be the future of gaming

and, idk, when my options are the $300 facebook headset with a cellphone processor, an $800 headset from 5 years ago, and a $1000 out of stock valve index I can see why the mainstream didn't catch on to this

I'm looking at VR stuff because the pre-release htc vive I got for free because a friend's company was throwing it away is old (it was old when I got it), and I would like something nicer

and holy shit everything is expensive

I don't need suggestions

just, goddamn

I keep trying to tell people, AI cannot be trusted, it does not *know* things, it puts words together in a likely order.

It will just make shit up, and it's not really a bug, it's just the nature of how it works.

Homeland Security Wants Social Media Sites to Expose Anti-ICE Accounts

Keep yourself safe out there

I've been meaning to watch it, I'll let you know when the mood strikes me

Yeah, as much as I like how Jami works it's not very brower-able

Oh, yeah, I'm Cowwan#4781
but I sent you a request

tbh I haven't seen many people talk about them, especially Jami

Hey mutuals shopping around for discord alternatives

I'm on:
Fluxer as Cowwan,
Jami as Cowwan,
Revolt as Cowwan,
and Matr​ix.org as Cowwan

apparently they need to review my application or something'

More and more I'm seeing people use "enshitificaion" to describe things they personally do not like rather than the trend of products getting worse to make them more profitable and appeal to shareholders

A comic, it is two panels Panel one: a man is saying "Who's mad about discord's new age verification policy?", everyone has their hand raised Panel two: the man is now saying "Who wants to actually use something that isn't Discord", everyone's hand is down
