First time I heard this I was tripping on 2cb and it blew my mind

As a very experienced python developer, I have tried using chatgpt for debugging and vibe coding multiple times and you just end up going in circles and never get to a working solution. It ends up being a lot faster just to do it yourself

Super interesting blog, also love that there are still some people blogging and it snot an insta post or YouTube video

I literally can’t think of a scientific use case where lossy compression would be acceptable?

I understood some of those words. Sounds like the future though

You no good fixty-sixin…

I think for me it is mostly visual things. Clothes, colour, decor etc

A printer or printer firmware. There was a discussion about this elsewhere on lemmy, of course this would be difficult and expensive but it would be very cool

It’s really surprising this doesn’t already exist. It’s such a hated piece of tech, I would have thought someome would have thought they could do better! I don’t know enough to do it myself but I’d sure as hell support a project to do it!

Incredible to see how far blender has come. I remember using it over ten years when I was trying to get off pirated software (3ds max), while it’s still recognisable the capability has exploded

Yeah I’ve heard that, fingers crossed somebody comes across it one day

This is incredible news. So sad to see tiberian Sun isn’t there though!

I’ve been using it for 8 years and haven’t paid, is there any benefit for paying?

Sounds like you were the odd one out, everyone I knew had plenty of VHS and DVD. They were a very common gift also

I’m 40% dolomite

I think that is downplaying it, while mobile devices caused the major boom in access, the Internet was already prolific before

The Internet has changed almost every aspect of daily life, I don’t see why you don’t think it is as innovative as the invention of the car.
