roland<p>i am just gonna say it :-) 50% of me hates S𐌄verance because it's yet another show with tired "terrible cult headed by a whᜁte guy" trope :-), 50% of me loves it because it is so weird. it would be even better if the cult leader was a 🇺SA-ian of Fᜁlipino or Afrᜁcan or ᜁndigenous heritage <a href="https://devdilettante.com/tags/Ymmv" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ymmv</span></a></p>

I've used the same 12 year old indestructible linux toughbook with i3wm for around 8 years without issue as my main machine and everytime I need to use each new version of Mac or Windows I'm searching around trying to figure out how to find files, hook up to a VPN, set up networking, or just do the most basic work. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/YMMV" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>YMMV</span></a></p>

Re: prompting people say it's trivial but never open source their prompts which makes it difficult for me <a href="https://devdilettante.com/tags/Ymmv" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ymmv</span></a> of course :-) I've never been able to simply do 1 prompt &amp; done. I have to tweak my prompts at least 3 times to get what i what. &amp; for software development only DeepSeek has done what I wanted. ChatGPT has failed miserably every time i've asked it to do a ruby or python script but i'm still a beginner. Haven't tried Claude.</p>
Doom Disco!<p>Maybe it's because of my socialisation and tendency towards nerd niche topics. If I appreciate something, I don't really give a shit what others think / say about it. Otherwise I wouldn't be a "fan". I deal with "other opinions" accordingly; they are part of the "real world" &amp; important! <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23ymmv" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ymmv</a></p>
