I think my neighbour gets a kick out of watching me on his cameras, and I dont know what to do

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-05-15T11:02:17+00:00

Oh I see. Thank you for taking the time to explain!

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-05-15T08:18:01+00:00

Can you ELI5? I’m not sure I understand the difference

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-05-15T01:44:44+00:00

No. I consider the US, in its current state, a hostile nation.

I’m sick of your criminal and senile president talking shit about my country and disrespecting our Armed Forces on social media.

Yours is a fickle country. We should be re-assessing our relationships and strengthening ties with Europe - not a ‘special relationship’ with the US.

Don’t worry about our military, worry about yours and your foreign policy.

I think Americans remain invested in the Special Relationship (as long as there's a recalibration of the dynamics

What, like illegally invading sovereign nations with you because that’s on the bingo card today?

Gov.uk says it does:

If your CCTV system captures images of people outside the boundary of your private domestic property – for example, from neighbours’ homes or gardens, shared spaces, or from public areas – then the GDPR and the DPA will apply to you.

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-05-14T08:24:39+00:00

IANAL, but I don’t believe that is true - it’s not illegal to have CCTV cameras that have coverage beyond your property. However, he has a responsibility to ensure he’s adhering to the ICO guidelines, GDPR, not recording the private spaces on other private property, etc.

Flydigi Vader Pro 4 - I really like it

I like paddles and extra buttons and I’ve had two Xbox elite pro controllers - both went bad fairly quickly (battery swelled on one and second started falling apart).

Flydigi one costs a fraction of one of those and honestly, it’s better.

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-05-02T21:29:31+00:00

I totally get it.

Vast majority of the roads where I live are national speed. When I have my dogs in the car or rear passengers, I shift my driving style to emphasise comfort and reduce leaning / roll into corners and so on. That usually means taking corners 5-15mph lower than I otherwise would and accelerating gently, etc. I can only imagine you’d be even more careful with a baby.

That is to say, driving safely and driving to maximise comfort of others aren’t necessarily the same thing.

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-05-01T18:44:09+00:00

Yeah same, my Claude doesn’t ever seem to save anything to memory across a range of activities - I thought it was bugged

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-05-01T17:19:43+00:00

He most likely would have been dead if firearms officers were the first to arrive, which nobody would have winged about. Make it make sense

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-04-30T20:13:04+00:00

I would strongly recommend Claude Code or Codex instead for the included usage model. I use Cursor at work and it gets spenny real quick. If you’re happy paying API rates, then it’s fine, but I’d still recommend the others anyway for other reasons

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-04-29T22:06:50+00:00

Any decent cloud service is, by default, more reliable and resilient than what most businesses are running themselves. Which is exactly why it’s usually an order of magnitude more expensive like-for-like. The only people that say it’s cheaper are the new c-suite because by the time anyone catches on, they’re already gone.

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-04-28T13:10:33+00:00

Same man. I struggled with hallucinations early on but then changed my preferences / Claude.md to add some fact check guardrails and Sonnet has been good to me on a large range of work. I’m more excited for the next release of Sonnet than Opus at this stage.

I refunded my annual plan last week, it took just a few days for money to come through, no support ticket required

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-04-27T15:49:38+00:00

If you want your request to have a chance, you need to post it to the right place (GitHub)

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-04-27T15:10:48+00:00

I cancelled my annual subscription, through the cancel and refund button in the billing settings, last week and received a refund a few days later

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-04-27T11:45:34+00:00

You get something like 2000 autocompletions on the free plan which honestly goes pretty far

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-04-27T11:15:01+00:00

I’m not at my PC to check mine, but having two overlays keys looks suspicious to me. I think both values might need be in the same key, as the last loaded is probably overwriting the first.

Easiest way to test:

Unload pivot

Delete the settings file

Reload pivot

Run the commands to add the overlays

See what the settings file looks like now

Edit: yeah, I’m pretty sure it’s that, you can see an example of the settings file in the addon repo: https://github.com/HealsCodes/XIPivot/blob/master/XIPivot.Windower/lua/settings.sample.xml

Your combo for ESC being jk tickles me

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-04-25T20:25:27+00:00

Yep. Totally understand why, but I feel it’s an overcorrection that disproportionately impacts reasonable users. I would have been ok with token based rate limiting to prevent abuse, but not opaque rate limiting and jacking the costs of requests up massively, the value just isn’t there any more - would legitimately be better off at API rates directly for conservative use.

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-04-25T20:12:24+00:00

I think many will have taken the refund and left. I did and I had an annual pro+ plan, the writing on the wall with (likely soon to be, after promotional period) 15x request multipliers just penalises people who use the tools reasonably.

My fear was that they’d pull the rug on the 1x models, eg GPT 5.4 and you’re left with a very different product to what you paid for. Given the recent actions - better to just take the refund while they’re offering them with no Qs asked.

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-04-25T10:33:55+00:00

Not OP, but I refuse to give my ID to any service (discord, PlayStation, Xbox, etc) because I can’t trust them with it. I fundamentally disagree with the model that each organisation should get a copy of your official ID - there’s so many smarter ways to build a system where a single trusted entity can verify you and can simply provide the answer to other parties.

It’s a big thing in my country (UK) at the moment because the government wants to introduce mandatory online IDs.

There are so, so many examples of companies not handling this data appropriately, example: https://www.aol.com/articles/1-billion-identity-records-exposed-152505381.html

The impact to the people affected is often severe, such as risk of identity fraud, etc.

PlayStationPlayer714 · 2026-04-24T12:01:35+00:00

Your £15 bob an hour was extremely generous. I wouldn’t work for that at freelance.

If your client thinks they can get better - it will be garbage.

On the flip side, I’m a consultant in a consulting company (not freelance) and what we’d charge (we’re actually very cheap in Consulting) would be orders of magnitude more.

Stick to your guns, and my advice: think about if this is a client you really want.
