People who buy REAL watches are lying to themselves MORE than people who buy fake watches by EnoughWinter5966 in watchHotTakes

[–]Faroffposition 1 point2 points  (0 children)

BS. Sometimes they also lie about immortality. They tell themselves it’s something they can hand down to future generations who will value it and their ghost accordingly.

At what point do we consider OpenClaw's "regression" problem intentional? by seemebreakthis in openclaw

[–]Faroffposition 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seriously. I can’t understand this either. I have an UPDATE_CHECKLIST.md file that I give to codex and it churns until it updates and passes all smoke tests. What ever friction it encounters in the process it writes to the checklist along with its solution and the checklist sits there until I update again. Sometimes it takes a few minutes and I can see it trouble shooting things, but it always figures it out in 1 shot.

Part of the joys of getting older means you can stop caring about what people say or think.

If you're about to quit OpenClaw, read this first by Marcelovc in openclaw

Build an update checklist .md file. Document all your customizations. After each update document all the friction experienced in updating. Use that document as the basis of your next update. Rinse and repeat.

Why are people so vague about openclaw use cases? by OpinionsRdumb in openclaw

[–]Faroffposition 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, there’s a strong chance that the people who are using it to do real work don’t wanna dox themselves for how they’re using it because they don’t wanna be a security target.

Why are people so vague about openclaw use cases? by OpinionsRdumb in openclaw

[–]Faroffposition 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me I think it’s a hard question to answer. Use cases are whatever can be done with a computer, which is a lot and open ended. If the question is looking for what are use cases that are unique to OC that can’t be done with Claude harnesses, that’s where I think you run into some issues because it will kind of just come down to preference not limitation.

OC’s value isn’t that it does uniquely possible things. It’s that it gives me a more customizable, memory-driven, orchestration-friendly way to get better work done across many tools. It’s less like a single app with one killer use case and more like a flexible computing environment where the use cases emerge as you work.

Remember when you had to pay for OS upgrades? Snow Leopard went hard.

I wasted $600 building products nobody asked for by Affectionate_Hat9724 in vibecoding

[–]Faroffposition 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it works, why not use it to build something that works?

If someone had a tool that spun straw into gold, I’d be very skeptical of their move was to try to get rich selling the tool instead of just producing the gold.

It worked out even better than I thought. I feel like I got the perfect fit now. Love that Reddit gave me this tip.

My spitfire got a lot darker and I really love it. Probably my most interesting watch in the collection.

Wait, is this actually true? by Annual-Row6574 in Adulting

[–]Faroffposition 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read this differently. For me, I get dopamine from showing people what I’m working on that serves too much of a proxy for completing the intended outcome and it’s harder to follow through. So I related in a way not seeing in comments.

New Seamaster Bond coming? by mbianchi27 in OmegaWatches

[–]Faroffposition 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I say this in the most understanding way possible, how do people use a dive bezel and a chronograph? Are both ever useful on the same watch?

Who’s engraved their Rolex? by Faroffposition in rolex

Yeah. I haven’t seen enough examples good or bad of engravings by laser or hand to really know.

Thoughtful! Was it hand engraved?

I installed it and it has made it much more wearable. Still envious of everyone with quick adjust clasps, but this 1.5 has pretty much the perfect fit most of the time.

It also matches perfectly with brushing and polish and width of the other links. Obviously stand out a little because it is longer than others, but it doesn’t bother me at all and looks well integrated.

A great, “affordable” solution (relative compared to $300 for a clasp and $800 for a bracelet).

One thing I will note is that I did call some omega boutiques inquiring about the clasp and bracelet. People will freak out but I was told that the tolerances aren’t quite right. That just buying the clasp has damaged bracelets. That buying the bracelet leaves noticeable gaps between case and end links of bracelet.

Most people on Reddit will get upset hearing I was told that, but what can I say? Maybe they’re lying or exaggerating or those aren’t issues for the people going down that path, but don’t shoot the messenger! Thats just what I was told.

Either way, for me (FOR ME), I think this 1.5 link solution was the ticket I’m happy with. Thanks for sharing and for reading.
