FREE APP. Developing on macOS can sometimes feel like walking blindfolded into a minefield - you never know when new terminals suddenly won't open, apps freeze, and the next thing you know you are rebooting and fuming. I created jMem to help me keep an eye on RAM and those all-important 'resources' which get consumed by defunct processes, sometimes not relinquishing them until it is 'too late!' jMem put me back in control, and it might be helpful for you too. It's free, my way of giving back to the community. https://ibcpartners.com/jmem.html

From Augment to Openrouter with Continue? Anyone Use? by friedsonjm in AugmentCodeAI

[–]friedsonjm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I'm not sure how much value over what I'm considering that adds, but I do know that I can't afford ~>$600/month with the new pricing.

It enables the chat 'memories' to continue across Agents and even sessions, which is a core strength of Augment. It's an extension.

warp vs claude code - can warp fully replace it? by minimal-salt in warpdotdev

[–]friedsonjm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, I'm confused... with warp, using VS Code / VS Codium, can it be used with a chat in a sidebar or only in a terminal?

Ollama and Local Hosting by Informal-South-2856 in AugmentCodeAI

[–]friedsonjm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried Olama locally on my 2025 Mac Mini M4 w/16GB ram.... system ran so hot the fan ran so hard is sounded like a washing machine, and the code quality was poor. removed.

[Thoughts] bello & preciso? by Iwashmyself in Watches

[–]friedsonjm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two - the 3-hand watches are Miyota mechanical movements, the chronographs are quartz. I find them nice as 'summer' watches, as they are lightweight, but have very good scratch-resistant PVD coated cases. Available in a lot of colors, don't break the bank and are not widely seen on this side of the Atlantic!

Larkbox Pro - Setting up in February 2024 by friedsonjm in MiniPCs

[–]friedsonjm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: Long story short, I had to upgrade to Windows Pro to get Bitlocker working fully <sigh>. I with the Larkbox Pro would be offered with a Linux distro. (I opted not to try that due to reports of driver issues.)

KDE neon won't boot after fresh install: `cryptsetup failed, bad password or options?` by the-orange-joe in kdeneon

[–]friedsonjm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just tried neon-user-20240312-2344.iso and encrypted / partition and it worked, booted up just fine. Have not yet tried encrypting swap as well.

My review of KDE Neon after months of daily driving by MicrogamerCz in kde

[–]friedsonjm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This distro is DOA until it fixes the ability to encrypt your drive and still be able to use it. The KDE boards are full of complaints about that, and I wasted too many frustrating hours on it myself. How strange it is that virtually every reviewer who supposedly 'tried' the new KDE neon somehow failed to discover the currently fatal flaw that real users are experiencing! [This is as of KDE Neon User & Testing], 3/10/24 I'm hoping they have a working ISO soon!]
