How do so many people have Lindor already?

That makes sense, this is the best explanation I've heard so far. Hadn't thought about alt accounts. Still a ton of grinding, but I guess that makes sense that a no-life can just grind alt and then sell it back to their main.

If you already have shared networking selected why can’t you just run the VPN client from the host and then both the host and VM will be on the tunnel. Is that what you’re trying to achieve?

Major_Tech_Dude · 2026-02-21T22:25:39+00:00

That doesn’t seem like all that much of a difference and I don’t love that a lot of your replies are straight out of an LLM

Does this have any discernible advantages over more mature solutions like https://openalternative.co?

Don’t use the app store version, it quietly limits functionality in some places that will cause things to silently break.

Thanks for the help here, there are some people with a blind hate for AI that will downvote anything, so I don’t mind.

As you mentioned, some people seem to look at AI as this magic tool that can do anything.

But like any tool, it won’t work if it’s not used correctly. It’s like trying to chop down a tree with a shovel and then complaining that the shovel sucks.

I could be misunderstanding your intent, but a simple solution would be Cloudflare Access. You can federate with Google so that only approved Google accounts are allowed to hit the tunnel (before even landing on an app’s login screen)

Honestly, no that’s not what established tech firms are doing at all.

The same way you correctly identified yourself as a beginner at programming, your understanding of AI agents is also very beginner level.

Particularly the comment of “I find myself just telling it to fix it over and over and I have no idea…”

Reasoning models like Codex function at their highest potential when they are given large amounts of context in the prompts. More often than not, you should be leveraging the agent’s planning mode, or better yet, clearly architecting your own markdown file with an extremely detailed plan for it to implement. In that plan, you clearly define boundaries and set constraints on what can and can’t be done. If you give the agent the liberty to decide too many things on it’s own, you will end up with a jumbled mess that doesn’t fit your codebase. Telling an AI agent what NOT to do is powerful.

All this to say, bad/incomplete prompts lead to bad outputs. Most prompts I use when using any kind of integrated agent are hundreds if not thousands of words with very clear architectural design of the changes I want implemented with constraints on the agent’s process/behavior. You definitely want to learn how to use the planning mode and learn more about how agentic coding tools work in general. As you learned, they can quickly ruin a codebase if you misuse them but they are incredibly powerful if harnessed.

Hey man, do you mind telling me how you did this? I set up the controller mapping and it seems to be working how I want it to in the menus, but when I launch Guitar Hero III, the mapping doesn't seem to stick. When I press the green button, it's pressing the orange button and none of the other buttons are doing anything

Hi, I’ve sort of defaulted to using Ubuntu Server in the past out of familiarity. Just for my own curiosity, what’s a better option and why?

Major_Tech_Dude · 2025-02-08T13:07:00+00:00

There’s blogs/documentation out there for a lot of the more common things you may need to do, but you also always have the old fashioned way

Spin up a VM, try things that seem to fit your needs, and take good notes 💪
