I've been slowly decreasing my dependence on big tech for several years. Building my workflow around an LLM would be a massive backslide.

why are so many people okay with outsourcing coding efforts to what is a pretty expensive (and despite that, a loss leader) subscription to a remote machine. it feels like the entire ideal of self-hosting/computing sovereignty has been completely forgotten in the sea of LLM technology discourse

when the platform lets you tell the algo to not recommend something, and lets you give a reason as to why, i want one of the options to be "it creeps me out that you recommend this at all"

I'm thinking if I should look for a second-hand ARM64 Mac Mini to bring macOS support (not just building, but engineering/testing) to my open source projects. To be fair, it would also help with Linux AArch64 builds - right now I'm using user mode QEMU on an x86_64 laptop, which is, not the best.

I've always had a kind of nostalgia for MoonShell 2; however, advancements in DSi mode support made modern .nds homebrew incompatible with it. As such, this evening, I've decided to fix it - including argv and return-to-loader support.

Some kind of guide/blog post coming soon.

Learned of a creator who focuses on making games using MSX-BASIC. Tower of Warlock looks interesting.

I feel the concept of mainstream is fading as more people have freedom of choice in their entertainment.

There's still things that are more widely popular, but gone is "one of these shows airing on Thursday will be the thing everyone cares about."

I think casting broad nets is increasingly not it.
