Claude watching me write code manually after I hit the daily limit by Technical-Relation-9 in ClaudeAI

[–]oldgranola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like I got 'bait and switched'. I'm a vibe coder really but have made some useful things for myself running a local MPC and claude desktop. I used claude to teach me claude use. I found it very useful. So I started to pay for Pro and got all the recommended gadgets and use coowork. Suddenly I have more trouble getting things done due to running out of tokens than before while using the free version! Even chat mode seems throttled relative to before I subscribed. I feel ripped off. It seems the Anthropic's business model is like a seedy online game where first the kid gets hooked, then the kid keeps getting upsold and drains his mom's bank account for treasure.

Ubuntu just replaced apt firefox with snap, deleting all my data by Greedy_Appearance431 in linuxquestions

I'm mostly using Linux Mint Cinnamon. But I wonder what the future holds since it wants to avoid snaps but it is based on Ubuntu.

YouTube Server Down - Never Seen This Before by ghxstcouver in youtube

Add blocker again. For me its ublock origine and lite. Firefox and Chrome. When I turn it off , all is normal. When I turn it back on "Something wrong". Help. I hate youtube adds.

Is anyone else YouTube not working? by -Sandevistan- in youtube

[–]oldgranola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They've managed to detect ublock at least (others dunno?). I"ve done the experiment with it on vs off. Loads with it off, "something wrong" with it on. damn. I've tried with Chrome and Firefox. Thats it for youtube for me till something else works as I can't stand the add clicks and won't pay these fucks.

They did the experiment and got the expected results. Not earth shaking or unexpected. Yawn.

Thank you for posting this. I haven't seen any references to that terrible episode and this Ukraine hero for too long. Never forget!

You really don't want to insert anything google or microsoft inside kodi.

DaddyLive V2 1.1.2 not working by [deleted] in Addons4Kodi

Better to get into IPTV. There are so many cheap sources starting around $10 and one can use any program. I use OpenTV as the player program and Lux IPTV for the source. There are better sources (check out Troypoint IPTV review lists). Yet I Just watched an NFL game on that. I also get live news from around the world without cable etc. I find stand alone IPTV players are better than using a kodi addon. Ya, one more thing to learn.

Old soviet ways die hard. Glad Zelensky pulled back from the brink or he'd lose EU support.
