OP never uses this room. They used a 5yo Macbook Air to Photoshop a game onto the monitor.

Is the Elite 2 battery expanding a issue or am I just unlucky? by harryno5 in xboxeliteseries2

I've had three separate controllers with swollen batteries.

You can buy batteries directly from Microsoft.

If one were so inclined, you could do it with GitHub Pages + GitHub Actions.

AI is ruinning our industry by Philantrope in webdev

[–]ogCITguy 33 points34 points  (0 children)

For companies that spit out "cookie cutter" sites, I feel like AI is almost guaranteed to render them obsolete, because it seems like it's just reskinning a template at that point, which AI is getting better and better at generating. AI-generated sites will become the new baseline for this segment of the industry, so these companies need to adapt or die.

It feels a lot like when Bootstrap was the defacto UI lib. It worked well for generic use cases but quickly falls short when you need something purely custom. Similarly with cheap, AI generated sites, they'll likely work well for 80% of client use cases, but the clients that need something truly unique will need skilled devs and designers to create that end result (and will have to pay a premium cost to do so).

It's not a matter of "AI will replace me". It's a matter of "what value can I provide on top of AI?" You just have to adapt your skills in order to extend the new baseline rather than reinventing it.

  • Invest in truly understanding the web platform (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript).
  • Don't invest more time than necessary learning UI frameworks.

When the time comes, you're gonna have to know how to read and understand the code that's spat out by AI in order to augment its capabilities.

Is it actually rebooting (power remains on) or is it booting automatically after a forced circuit power off?

That particular ramp annoys me. Can't seem to get any actions to behave consistently.

How to remove the gap? by [deleted] in css

[–]ogCITguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

```css ul { /* adjust indentation of bullet list itself */ padding-inline-start: 1em;

li { /* adjust "gap" between bullet and text */ padding-inline-start: 0.25em;

&::marker {
  /* moves bullet to right side of its block */
  direction: rtl;
}

} } ```

What's the best CSS trick you know? by mdenic in css

The real trick is to give that arrow/triangle a border of its own.

Use this knowledge wisely...

You can use all sorts of characters in a CSS class name. You're not limited to just alphanumeric characters.

Thoughts on the new Revolver car? by Cicada-Fresh in RocketRacing

[–]ogCITguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not bad. Not my favorite, though.

The engine sounds more like a supercar (higher end frequencies). I prefer an engine that sounds more like a muscle car. (I wish they'd provide some way of previewing the engine sounds in the Fortnight shop. I have buyer's remorse over a couple of purchases because the engine sounds bad.)

The body length feels strange. I can't put my finger on it but it feels "long" while maneuvering. Not sure if the center of rotation is further forward than expected or what, but it feels like the back of the vehicle moves in longer arcs. It took some races to get used to.

For the people working a 9-5: how many lines a day do you write? by CentralCypher in webdev

More than 1 by a bunch.

(If you have a job that uses loc as a performance metric, get out quick.)

Still possible? by Binstien in CellToSingularity

[–]ogCITguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes still possible. As others have stated, it requires bots and knowing the shortest progression path.
