No way Rockstar is doing this.

Really? It has been by far the fastest and simplest option I've found and use across all my devices these days. Not that I looked very deep though, like pairdrop and such.

So what's better than this?

It depends on the type of query, anything has to do with locality or recency, LLMs just don't _really_ work all that well, or even at all.

Someone at work yesterday asked me if I knew which bus lines would be active today due to the ongoing strike. Googled, got a result, shared back in under 10 seconds.

Out of curiosity I just checked with various LLMs through t3.chat, with all kinds of features, none had anything more than a vague "check with local news" to say. Last one I tried Gemini with Deep Research and what do you know, it actually found the information and it was correct!

It also took nearly 5 minutes..

Like I feel if your search is about _reality_ (what X product should I buy, is this restoraunt good, when is A event in B city, recipes etc.) then LLMs are severely lacking.

Too slow, almost always incomplete answers if not straight up incorrect, deep research tends to work if you have 20 minutes to spare both to get an initial answer and manually go and vet the sources/look for more information in them.

Way less mental overhead than macros and much faster for most cases. You might wanna look at them beyond surface level, they\'re actually awesome.

Having both is even better. While I'm not a fan of Helix's selection→action model it's a great example of how macros&multicursors go very well together. Soon to be on neovim native too, so there's that

Every summer without failure Vodafone's network drops the ball, right around the time we need it the most. They'll offer like unlimited data on you phone till it gets fixed or something like that. Last summer they took close to 40 days to get it fixed in our area.

This summer, the first day we noticed the connection getting spotty we bit the bullet and got a Starlink. Smooth sailing ever since, like holy shit what an upgrade. Chatting a little more with a client that does various installations in tourist places, hotels and stuff, he told he's been basically setting up Starlinks everywhere for the past 6 months or so.

Nonsense, there's nothing here that betrays a CG look. This is very obviously real footage.

Yup, just to echo this sentiment, I've had the Sony WF-SP800N for 4 years now. All of this anecdotal of course. They've fallen from my ear under intense workouts, I've dropped them with & without the case more times than I can count because I'm clumsy. They still work like Day 1, they're far more functional than having a flimsy wire dangle around.

And I guess it depends on your usage; people who use their headphones for 10 minutes a day probably don't care much about any of this. My earbuds stay plugged like half the day, every day. 7$ wired ones will get you abysmal audio quality, and even if you chip in for better, wires still break trivially - you won't even have to try. I've changed more of those in my life than shirts - meanwhile the wireless buds have lasted 4 years.

Now I'm looking to buy new ones, maybe try to get into that multipoint pairing action, that could be useful. I often find myself in situations were it'd be useful to receive audio from more than one source.

I don't see why they would. Pokemon puts out slop after slop and sells like hotcakes. Scarlet and Violet was abysmal, lowest rated Pokemon game ever, full of bugs, glitches, the works. Over 23 mil sold, instant top 5 for Pokemon sales ever. Sword & Shield? Another cool 25+. How did PocketPair annihilate them?

Come Christmas time, kids want to play with Pikachu.
