Completely missing the point of physical media. I don’t see why preserving physical media is a win for xbox right now. The game is not on disk. In 30 years when the game servers are gone, I wont be able to play the game. I wont be able to buy cheap used copies in 6 months as people beat the game. I wont be able to trade in games I’ve beat to get a different game at a low cost. own nothing and be happy.

Usage Resets??
Apparently you can use a reset to completely reset your codex usage limits. I
never knew these existed and apparently I have some expiring soon. Not sure if
they auto apply and this is why I get the weirdest reset experience on the
usage chart or what.
I have 3? they expire soon, how many have I missed out on.
One time only
I ran into an issue where my pinentry was unable to connect, blocking me from
doing commits. You can use this to continue signing commits.
export GPG_TTY=$(tty)

Interesting thoughts from a real OG [1] Kent Beck. He argues we are whitnissing the biggest advancement in computing in 40 years. For 40 years we have been almost exclusively writing in compiled languages. Languages that output to some sort of binary compiled assembly instructions for each processor type. Before that it was all hand written instructions directly to CPU. Now we are seeing the genie revolution. The genie is good a writing in many different programming languages given english prompts. It loves to complete problems and is not afraid to write lots of code very quickly. Its quite good at skirting around our best judgement in order to accomplish the goal we set.
Some take aways from this talk is that NO ONE knows what the fuck is next. No one knows the best ways to use these things. Everyone has their own opinion wrapped around their experience that might be wildly different than yours. It seems clear this is changing every day and ways no one can measure, predict, or prepare for. So much sits in the hands of model labs and model providers. Without real access to any of it, its all magic.

I align a lot with this post. From growing up in a rural house where internet access was harder to get. It was slow and only had one line, if you were on the internet, no one in the house could recieve a phone call. Idk if what is now the smol webl, the indieweb, is seeing a resurgence, if I’m just noticing it more. It does feel like along there has been a very small number of users willing to get their own domain, their own server, and host their own shit. A few of these are starting to really break out occasionally, see things like wordle [2] hitting mass adoptioun before being swooped up by a giant.
I too miss the internet of old, heck I really dont even mind the middle era of fb, twitter, instagram dominance, but what we have now is dominated by political undertones on it all with everyone shouting “Fake News” at each other. These sites are the easiest place to stay in touch with those you have met online, yet they are riddled with so much toxicity its impossible to have a great experience on them. I’m about a year and a half of not having a single one on my phone, and at this point I barely log into them once a week. RSS is the way forward, as long as its not killed b...
I’ve been running fedora coreos on my home servers for awhile. I really liked
the stability I got from bazzite, and have since enjoyed the stability of
fedora coreos. Since it’s an immutable system I’ve never quite known if I need
to reboot or not, and was unsure how to check for updates. Today I learned you
can use rpm-ostree status to see if your
fedora coreos system is up to date.
rpm-ostree status
For me it listed security advisories with a count of each severity unknown, low, moderate, and important.
This morning I had a machine crash on me and came back to an error.

zsh: corrupt history file /home/u_walkews/.zsh_history
Dammit I don’t want to redo my shell history, I checked with a clanker and they
came up with this solution using strings that only prints printable
characters.
cp ~/.zsh_history ~/.zsh_history.bak
mv ~/.zsh_history ~/.zsh_history.corrupt
touch ~/.zsh_history
chmod 600 ~/.zsh_history
strings ~/.zsh_history.corrupt > ~/.zsh_history
chmod 600 ~/.zsh_history

Does codex change throughout the token usage window?
Is it me or can you feel the 5 hour and weekly limit of codex nearing. It
feels like it slowly stops working tasks to completion and asking to continue.
I nearly start yelling into the enter, "YES, DO WHAT WE AGREED ON, STOP ASKING"
then I notice I'm in the single digits of remaining window left.
T Handle Wire Puller
I’ve been fighting not having a proper
pick/hook in my toolbox for a long time. This fathers day weekend my son
pulled out an old box of rc plane supplies from my days trying to build planes
like flight test. Inside there was a pack of piano wire.

Need a tool make a tool.
He had pulled this out while I had the soldering iron hot plucking away at a
keeb build that I’ve had sitting idle on the workbench for a long time. The
dream of having several identical working builds at the same time is very close
to fruition, I just need some more work on the clone.

I was struggling to pull wires through traces of 3d prints. You see I was once
a mechanical engineer, not electrical, so 3d modeling is my hammer that I can
turn into a tool for any solution, and I’ve just not put the time into learning
pcb design. Someday maybe. I always just take some scrap copper make a little
look and twist it around until I can get it close enough to pull with some
tweezer...
