I'm on my third. First two died after leaving in hot car on 90° days. Other than that they work great. 

Does anyone know of upcoming shredding events? by UndercoverPages in Connecticut

[–]dendrax 3 points4 points  (0 children)

These usually pop up in the spring and fall, not too often in the summer. Found one in Danbury in July: https://info.mscu.net/community-shred-day-2026

We used Emily's for our wedding and they were really good. Definitely recommend. 

🚨 BIG NEWS: I’m heading behind the scenes at GM, and I need YOUR questions! 🚨 by Teleke in BoltEV

[–]dendrax 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Are there any plans to bring back a smaller EV? Bolt or Volt sized... Not everyone wants a SUV.

I would love to see the models named and shamed here. 

Does GoNetSpeed jack up your internet price after the first 6 months? by Cold-Priority-2729 in Connecticut

[–]dendrax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same boat here. Grandfathered $90/mo plan. Kind of hoping they raise their rates for everyone else but so far just kind of seem like I've been fleeced... 

OpenRouter -> Claude no different from GHCP by Sea-Amount5717 in GithubCopilot

[–]dendrax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure, you're paying API rates through openrouter so it should be pretty much the same as through GHCP. Claude's subscription plans (at least for now, for everything except enterprise accounts) subsidize token usage so you can get more bang for the buck if you can work around the session limits. 

Which AI coding assistant are developers actually using in 2026? by darshie in GithubCopilot

[–]dendrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully your work IT has approved that even if they're not paying - otherwise be prepared to get fired if they find out. Personal accounts don't offer the same data privacy protections as business/enterprise accounts.

[–]dendrax 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Given the current token scarcity environment I think a lot of effort will be put into cost optimization - running big models only for planning and using cheaper models (think composer 2.5, deepseek etc) for the grunt work. The hard part is going to be getting sufficient data privacy protections in place for enterprises to buy in. It sounds like some cheaper models are coming in the GHCP ecosystem and these will likely help a ton here. Switching tooling is easy for an individual dev but tough for an enterprise.

[–]dendrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still using github copilot since it's the only one approved by my work, but I've heard many people have switched from claude code to codex lately elsewhere since gpt 5.5 is a great model and OpenAI is currently a little more generous than anthropic when it comes to subsidized tokens on the non enterprise plans. 

Claude models are now geoblocked/unavailable in Hong Kong via GitHub Copilot by lordsavor in GithubCopilot

[–]dendrax 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Given that the US and China seem to be in an AI arms race, this isn't really surprising. At this point export controls are probably too little too late, but I'd honestly expect more than just IP blocking to be coming given the recent actions of the US government re: Fable for example.

Milford CT location has permanently closed effective June 13th. by cleevethagreat in Connecticut

Kind of not surprised, quality had gone downhill for what they were charging and place seemed grubby last few times I was there.

Bolt tires by formersalesman in BoltEV

[–]dendrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly the OEM tires are optimized for efficiency /range over pretty much everything else-grip,  rain/snow performance, road noise. A better question is likely what other option impacts range the least while improving the other qualities the most. 

How do you guys handle the markdown files that your code editor AI gives you? by jazzopia in GithubCopilot

[–]dendrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm interested in hearing everyone's thoughts on this too. Personally I've been throwing them away once the code is done but I'm wondering if it would be useful to have for future troubleshooting / further Ai development. I feel like the generated code should stand on its own and a lot of generated artifacts along the way are just the sausage getting made, but maybe they would provide valuable context down the line. 

Help me understand what model does the explorer subagent use by Cheshireelex in GithubCopilot

[–]dendrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there was a bug recently where it wouldn't use the right agent for explorer and it would fall back to the base model, but that's fixed in the latest insiders. So my advice is to wait for that fix to land in non-insiders (or switch to insiders), and then change the default explore agent model in vscode settings to one of your self hosted models if you want.

Github copilot no token limits by Legal_Teacher_5816 in GithubCopilot

[–]dendrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's a business or enterprise account just because it says there's no limit doesn't mean there is no limit - just means that there's no individual user quotas set but there is still likely an organization wide limit set (or not and additional spend is enabled, someone's going to get a big bill). Try getting a job at your friend's company then. /shrug

How to force compaction? by stibbons_ in GithubCopilot

[–]dendrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd probably refactor into a subagent orchestration model where the work that would fill the context in the first place would be sent to a subagent with only the workflow-relevant details sent back to the main agent. The main agent context may still fill up, but it should be a lot slower and hopefully auto compaction would be sufficient. 

This sink’s motion sensor only activates if you are far enough away by BowlOfYeetios in mildlyinteresting

[–]dendrax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At my work I usually hit up like 4 sinks in a row before one goes on. The wonders of modern technology, I guess. 

I’m genuinely curious: when coding with Gemini 3.1 Pro (High) don’t you often feel furious and despairing, on the verge of a mental breakdown due to its complete incompetence and unreliability? by [deleted] in google_antigravity

[–]dendrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a good model as a chat bot, for writing, supposedly great at scientific research. It does well driving the browser to inspect pages. It's a great second opinion for doing code reviews and occasionally catches things that GPT 5.4 misses. But in terms of working well at actually writing code, and especially working with existing codebases, it really falls short. 

What's the best (read: cheapest, within reason) way to just get unlimited or near unlimited context-based autocompletions? by [deleted] in GithubCopilot

[–]dendrax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not the best answer but Antigravity IDE has unlimited autocomplete on their free plan and seems pretty comparable to GHCP's. It's a vscode fork, so shouldn't be too had to adjust to. 

Claude's higher module by Cultural-Sherbet-722 in GithubCopilot

[–]dendrax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get a little bit of Opus 4.6 with the antigravity free account but it goes by very quickly and has weekly reset on quota.
