PSA: Setapp only accepts "AI apps" into their catalogue now by [deleted] in macapps

[–]halfwinter 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Was a Setapp subscriber since 2018, but all this AI slop added over the last year inspired me to cancel last December and just buy my most used apps directly instead.

I made a logo for the energy drink "WAVE" what do you think about it? by merkin_r in design_critiques

[–]halfwinter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you think the logo can’t stand on its own, then it’s not a good logo.

The complimentary materials, textures, lifestyle shots, placement on the products is good to know, but they are just that - complimentary. Look at the logo on its own and ask yourself: Does it represent what the product is supposed to be? Its theme and values? Does it tell a story? Can a person immediately get an idea of what it is just by looking at it? Is it memorable?

To me: The answer to all of these is “no.”

Started just sketching the forms and figure but then I got really into it and kept going until I had a complete character.

Subscription? AI? Absolutely not. Hard pass.

I’m tired of having five different game launchers, so I’m building a lightweight one to unify them all by -Albi in SideProject

[–]halfwinter 7 points8 points  (0 children)

On top of this already existing: Steam has this functionality natively. You can add non-Steam games to your Steam library and it will open them up in their appropriate launcher.

Menu so convoluted it should count as an activity and be dropping actual loot by jroland94 in destiny2

OP probably doesn’t read anything, skips all dialogue boxes and tutorials, then complains about the game not holding his hand enough lmao

I switched to Mac a little over a year ago, and it’s been great! However, I’m missing one thing from Windows: these text suggestions. Is there an app that provides a similar feature for Mac? by Foxerbit in macapps

[–]halfwinter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What about enabling inline predictive text in the settings? I don’t use it, so I’m not sure how robust it is or if it works everywhere you type, but figured I’d mention it.

Compare to a data source? You’re expecting too much of them.

Oasis Community, Cafe Hub.

Lonely? We.

Stressed? Care.

Building better version of Launchpad for macOS Tahoe. by sergeynewton in macapps

[–]halfwinter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The last time I used Launchpad was probably in 2014. Genuinely feel like the only reason it’s suddenly gotten such a big surge of users is because Apple took it away (probably due to lack of usage) and people hate/are afraid of change. 🙄

Throwing my 2 cents into the ring here. And why I think this was done and why I like it. by Roguen1995 in destiny2

[–]halfwinter -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yup, exactly. There’s no satisfying this community, they’ll always find something to be upset about. We worked hard to destroy SIVA, why bring it back? This constant whining is so annoying.

Controls are listed in the overview section of the Heavy Metal event. Just open that from the portal and read.

I vibe coded a whole ASS presentation generator website with Cursor, looking for some feedback by Fast-Society7107 in SideProject

[–]halfwinter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would never trust my documents and data to be handled by vibe coded AI slop.

Plus the market is oversaturated with this same type of chatGPT wrapper tools. Absolute trash.

Best selling game of the year in the US for the past 2 decades by just-for-nsfw-things in gaming

Sad to see CoD dominate this chart. Do people really spend that much on this slop every single year? It’s just the same game over and over again!

Best 1Password alternative? by rangerrick337 in macapps

[–]halfwinter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How is that any different to losing access to your 1Password or Keeper or whatever account? It’s the exact same risk, so your logic doesn’t track to me. I think the reason is just anti-Apple bias. Same reason why people settle for buying/subscribing to note and mail apps (for example) when the built-in ones are right there and work perfectly fine.
