Is not working with gpt5.x models (Unsupported parameter: 'max_tokens' is not supported with this model. Use 'max_completion_tokens' instead.) which is hardcoded. I dont know why this is on the front page. My review-with-codex skill is working just fine, consuming my usage and not API tokens.
i really enjoy gemini funny answers.

3-fast:

"That is a classic "efficiency vs. logic" dilemma.

If you’re looking for a strictly practical answer: Drive. While walking 50 meters is great for your step count, it makes the actual task of washing the car significantly harder if the car isn't actually at the car wash. Unless you’ve mastered the art of long-distance pressure washing, the vehicle usually needs to be present for the scrubbing to commence."

I'm not going to try this. Anthropic will probably ban me again.

A senior developer + AI = superpowers. But some people have extremely strong resistance to change.

I run Claude code directly on Termux and it runs like a dream. My projects are mounted on a private S3 folder with rclone.

I'm wondering why companies are still trying to sell VR headsets. History clearly speaks: bulky head-mounted devices have all epically failed.

Chronicle is a lifesaver. HA, clustering, API, clean UI, it's doing everything right. I'm using this also as an API wrapper for Bash and Python scripts.

Chromium (new) EDGE or OG?
Re:Firefox Got Faster for Real Users in 2023 on Tuesday October 31, 2023 @01:35PM (#38088461)
In the Speedometer 2, Firefox is much slower than Chrome, which is a bit slower than Edge. But who cares! In real life, this makes no real difference. I respect and trust the privacy of Mozilla. Features like containers and the ability to run Ublock and Tampermonkey on mobile are priceless!
Re:Switching from Chrome to Firefox? Here Are Some Tips on Tuesday August 22, 2023 @12:33PM (#37225121)
I switched to Firefox about a year ago mostly for containers, plugin enabled android app and my increasing dislike for Google. Never regretted it!
Good to know because everything else is turning them on.
Nop, no lag. Bandwidth is not an issue at all.A single ISA slot will top up @ 8MB half / 16MB full duplex
usb 2 ISA adapter is more handy thought

I was lucky enough to live the fascinating journey from PC speaker to AdLib, SoundBlaster, SoundBlaster AWE64, Roland LAPC-1 (what a f#^n piece of hardware!), Yamaha SW60 and Gravis Ultrasound. Glory days!
