Doing some #AdventOfCode again to pass the time. Decided to use Windows for a change. I haven't really coded on Windows in a while. My compiler is a little old.

Time to blind try out a #JRPG I know nothing about on my new #Switch2. This one has a cool sword on the cover and I think I heard some #Nintendo YouTubers say they liked it. Wasn’t this one of the games you couldn’t play on 3DS unless you had the “New” model? And the protagonist got in Smash I think. That’s about all I know. Anyway, £59 on the eShop spent, 33 GB download. Weekend ahead. #Xenoblade
Going to attempt #Twitch #coding steaming again. Streaming #AdventOfCode in #Window95 on https://www.twitch.tv/0x1ac

Google Gemini seems to just be typing numbers in brackets and pretending it’s citing a source but not telling me what source the numbers relate to. [1.2.3]
PlayStation: We’re not making physical discs anymore but don’t worry you still own your digital library and it’s just as good and way more convenient.
Also PlayStation: We updated our TOS so if you don’t log in within 3 years we’ll permanently delete your account and all your digital library of games, we can do this because you don’t really own your digital games.
Please never make your login system be passwordless where I have to sit for 60 seconds waiting for the login email to come. Just let me put in a password.
Never streamed before. Live now on #Twitch as a test #coding #AdventOfCode in #Windows95

@xyla@shitpost.trade @adw99@mastodon.social I personally prefer calling them “sloperators”.

@ericwastl@hachyderm.io TBH, I disliked the global leaderboards. And I think having only private leaderboards solves the lingering question of generative AI. Looking forward to another great year. 🎅🧝♂️

@kevlin@mastodon.social I’m sure companies’ accounting teams will find a way to replace high paid programmers with with much cheaper LLMs, even if the code quality turns to potato, then a year later hire someone to “tidy up” the LLM code.
I streamed a bit more of #AdventOfCode 2022 in Windows 95.
UK to scrap the digital ID card and use mandatory TV licence as a universal ID.
First attempt at streaming yesterday.
Just went live again on #Twitch now, trying to learn #coding in #Windows95, game development.

@stux@mstdn.social I don’t like the price of everything going up all the time, but I typically watch YouTube 25 hours per day (+/- 1 hour) every day so I’ll keep paying for it as I don’t have any other streaming media subscriptions at all.
