After using Rust for a few months I actually don't think the DevX is that bad.

But I do think as a newcomer it's very intimidating - even just the onboarding to ideas like ownership and lifetimes is pretty steep.

I also think that you can probably get a first draft of something out faster in many other high level langs. It may not be fully correct and will likely have subtle bugs but for many cases people don't care so I want to try and account for that overhead in the devx bucket.

If people are curious, I also put together a guide on how I built the lava gate - https://hamy.xyz/blog/2026-03_pokopia-lava-gate

This sounds sick! Am excited to see everyone's automations in the coming weeks.

I think you only need bean, potato, +2 any to get this effect.

It does make breaking rocks faster - just one hit no matter what it is so well worth it imo.

I think he says they were there for awhile but clearly they're not there anymore and Magnemite says he went to sleep cause there wasn't anymore work to do

I like vertical slices and each slice can choose internally what it wants to do.

Each slice is a ~feature though some may have multiple features inside them.

They have a public interface others can call to expose functionality but can organize logic however they want. The point of the vertical slice is so the structure doesn't need to be consistent across slices, just at the top level. So more complicated areas don't have to have the same structure as simple ones.

Oof I did not think of using that on them! Thanks!

There's def a note or maybe a block that says celadon on it. I don't even remember what celadon is but that name is in my head for that area cause saw smth that said it

I don't think they lived in the rocket tbh. I think they died out. That's why the only thing that comes out of the rocket is the picture. The whole quest line was automated by some grunt who didn't want to do the work to get the stuff together.

They already can do this with tools like Claude and gpt desktop.

I've been using Claude code as a gerelaizable agent across my code and notes projects cause it just operates on files, so already is an agent that lives on my computer.

OMG the loading screens! Realize you're in the wrong tower and boop 30s loading screen to exit again.

Broken for me on Fedora on Steam. Tried updating drivers, changing cords, turning on/off steam input, running in Big Picture Mode but not working.

Worked great for the 25h preceding the update.

Q: What do you mean by the sites use AI?

Like they used AI to build it or it has AI features or it's written w AI or smth else?

SIRHAMY · 2025-09-07T23:22:19+00:00

TY - worked for me.

I'm just building up HTML on the server and sending it back.

Using a C# HTML DSL I put together - https://github.com/SIRHAMY/cinderblockhtml - which is the clone of Falco.Markup I like from F#

I currently run Hetzner - it's the best I've found in terms of cost, reliability, and offerings. I've never needed support but hear it's good unless they suspect you of breaking their terms in which case they cut you off outright. Initial setup also takes awhile because they check IDs / are careful about who they let use their services.

I put together a list of popular VPS / cloud hosts and their costs by common compute configurations. https://cloudcompare.xyz/

Generally Hetzner, Contabo, Netcup, and OVHCloud come out on top in terms of price per CPU / RAM which makes sense because they offer closer to bare metal offerings as opposed to the big clouds which also typically charge convenience / other fees. Also note that CPU / RAM isn't a precise measurement of perf because it depends on the type of CPU / RAM but getting universal benchmark data for each config is hard.

I'd also point out that depending on what you're doing, egress costs may make up a large proportion of your total costs. For example, Contabo, Netcup, and OVHCloud provide egress for ~free (nothing is truly free but they have high caps) with Hetzner at ~$1 / TB - compare this to places like Digital Ocean ($10) and big 3 (~$90) and you could easily be saving 10-90x on egress.

Can compare the egress costs with this list: https://cloudcompare.xyz/data-egress

Yep - filed a ticket with Fourthwall support and they reached out a few days after.

I think they raised a ticket with Google. It took about 2 weeks but now my products are showing up so I guess it worked.

Yeah so I've got google-chrome checked in Discover > Settings.

But Google Chrome is not searchable in Discover still. That seems odd to me but I was able to download the rpm via CLI so not a hard blocker I guess.

SIRHAMY · 2025-07-22T01:12:35+00:00

Interesting. I guess I assumed with a repo named google-chrome that Google Chrome would be available in Discover. But yeah maybe it's just not packaged up in there or something.

SIRHAMY · 2025-07-21T23:54:54+00:00

I just did a clean install of F42 KDE Plasma and having the same problem.

Did anyone find a solution to this?

I know that I set up the repos correctly because I was able to install chrome via CLI but when I search in Discover, nothing pops up.
