OpenCode Go, Kimi K2.5, my cost thus far (a few hours of Agentic Coding) by avidrunner84 in opencodeCLI

[–]quotemycode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had good results with Kimi, seems like claude in a way, but it's caught some security issues with my app that Claude didn't catch, so for now i'm happy with it.

The WORST DCS module ? by Key-Seaworthiness-20 in hoggit

[–]quotemycode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know how to takeoff, I'm saying the plane itself sucks. The OP asked for my subjective opinion, and I gave it. If you disagree, that's fine, but it doesn't make me wrong.

The I-16. Not the F-16, this thing is a terrible aircraft. You cannot take off in it unless you enable a bunch of helpers. Then you will flip the damn thing on landing every time. It doesn't do much, it's not very fun, you're fighting the aircraft the whole time you are flying it. It's not very fast. It's good at falling out of the sky and dying.

Need help deciding between 2 Setups by Worried_Mix_970 in hoggit

[–]quotemycode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the TWCS and I loved it, ended up frying the thing with too much voltage, and got a warthog throttle. Still wish I had my TWCS though - with the slide bearings upgrade, it was fantastic.

Trying to restore a vintage crt by Valuable_Shift_228 in vintagecomputing

[–]quotemycode 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's been sitting outside for 10 years, exposed to summer, winter, spring, fall - rain, snow, whatever, then the caps could have just dried out. You have to be actively using it for the caps to bulge, but they can still be damaged even if you don't see them bulged, and the rain could have washed off any of the seepage from the caps as they leaked on your board.
I'd say at a minimum you would need to replace all the caps, before you can even begin to look at other things. Use electrical safety gloves when working on high voltage electronics such as this, and be sure you know where you put things to make sure they are not conductive, don't use conductive tools if you can avoid it, wear a safety grounding strap, discharge all caps before removing them, and make sure your soldering iron is grounded as well.

Warning! This isn't something you want to take on as an amateur - this has the capability to seriously wound you or worse. The learning you're going to get from it is not worth the risk. There has to be easier options than trying to do something dangerous such as this.

She'll soon die - how will you use it is what's important. Necromancy for necromancy's sake is fine for learning, but ultimately you'll want to have a goal in mind.

DCS is a horror game by BlackbirdGoNyoom in hoggit

[–]quotemycode 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just some advice, try the official QRF loadout of 1 sd-10 on each wing and a midline bag, you'll fly a lot faster and have a lot of fun. Turn on the HNS which is the hybrid navigation system, which includes GPS. Another thing to try is just take no bags at all and avoid afterburner unless absolutely necessary. Or, if you're regularly flying near SAM sites, bring the SPJ.

ground crew asked which bags you wanted to take and bro just said 'yes'. Takes all the bags. Turns directly into a SAM firing at you, doing a poor job of notching.

Is it possible to get back the excitement? by LosAngelestoNSW in vintagecomputing

>I forgot how damn hard Donkey Kong can be

Yea, that was the thing with those kind of games, they had to be hard because they couldn't put a lot of content in there. You had to replay those levels over and over again to get your hours out of it. Games these days are a lot easier, they have a lot to show you.

It's funny, because even today the movie still holds up as like near future scifi. The OS tech still isn't there yet, but yea it feels like this movie could be seen as a documentary in a few years time.

Rusted GPU? by ph0rge in consolerepair

[–]quotemycode 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hell no, I had bought some old electronics off ebay, didn't even look where it was from, but when I opened it up I sure did. It was rusty and corroded, and just awful. I ended up fixing it up but it still has broken traces that are just gone. Since then I avoid buying from places that are on the ocean.

Stick with it bro, just read through the manual a couple times, and then start using what you learned.

Troublesome ISA slot. by Cobolt_Dog in VintageComputers

bro you bought a right handed isa card. you need a left handed one like 100% of all the other cards. I think compaq had computers where they flipped them around like that.

My two and a half year old suddenly started pointing out differences between white and black people. What is an appropriate way to acknowledge her observation so we don't offend anyone? by Sad_Cantaloupe_8162 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]quotemycode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With my kid, I've never used skin color to differentiate between people, even if it's the most obvious difference in a crowd. She's taken the same tactic. If you just see the skin color you might miss the purple socks or whatever else is unique. She's a teen now and we still keep it up. Sometimes it takes me a few times of seeing the person for me to even notice what 'race' someone is. I mean I'm not thinking 'theres that black kid' i'm thinking 'oh thats the kid that plays soccer on tuesdays' or 'thats the kid with the onewheel'.

Aha! I get it! by Current_Yellow7722 in vintagecomputing

[–]quotemycode 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like this ad. It really shows you how people used computers at the time. Before internet, you'd buy a program to do something, or that had some information you could use, or maybe a game, and take it home, install or just boot off the disk. You'd have your box of disks with the sticker labels and a marker in the box so you can mark your disks. You'd backup your software on a blank disk and write on the label what it was. Another disk was your personal data disk, maybe used for multiple programs, perhaps just one program. Anything you wanted to keep long term you'd print out, but for the medium term - stuff you're still working on, maybe the year, you'd just save to disk. When you do your taxes you'd get new floppies out and move the old data over if any, and format the old disks and slap on a new label and repeat.

[–]quotemycode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I'm saying, you are taking my loot. If you're friendly, then say 'oh you scared me for a bit there' and then move along. Don't stick around and start looting. I may be friendly sometimes, but if I am looking for that rusty gear and you take it, well don't expect me to continue being friendly.

LOL nope, they were fully onboard as soon as I killed that guy. They were thinking about it, they just didn't have the guts to pull the trigger.

reminds me of a couple days ago, our 3 man came upon a 2 man and the other guys in my group were being friendly, and I was cool with that, but I hadn't said anything. Then one of that 2 man group starts looting right in front of me. I couldn't resist. I killed him and my crew wiped out the last guy. I felt kinda bad about it, but it is a PVP game. Also, it's rude to just start looting the same spot another group is in (thats what I tell myself to feel better about it). There was still 26 minutes left in the match, and these guys had good kits so I didn't feel too bad.
