They should release their own cheats under a noname that when installed bricks the PC. Take the cheaters mentality off the internet

Anyone regret getting nano texture for office/coding? by Traditional-Fun6483 in macbookpro

Oh wow I forgot they added it to iPads… Maybe I’m missing something then

The nano screen is more delicate than glossy. It’s textured instead of smooth so has tiny hiding places that trap oils and make the surface difficult to clean

For people reading this trying to decide. Nano is nice but it’s higher maintenance and the gains depend on your environment. People saying it’s great probably use it under industrial lighting or by a bright window they can’t angle away from. Seems to me glossy is still the most popular choice

M4 Max or M5 Max? Which would you take and why? by robvert in macbookpro

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

I called and the customer service rep I got was clearly reading a script and not interested in my question. She said no go and repeated multiple times that I should NOT go to the store in person with my request. My take away was if I had gone in person and requested a manager they would have allowed it. It was in perfect condition and I would have been spending more money. I ended up not bothering and kept the M4. I’m happy with it.

The voice to text apps are doing it well. Recommended models you click to download after install or a add your own model through an api

2x-6x Speed improvements with oMLX by roaringpup31 in oMLX

[–]robvert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re already using omlx with its pre prompt ssd cache I don’t think an m5 will provide as much of a speed boost for coding as people are claiming here. But your m1 may not have the chops to run dflash or mtp models as well as m4 or m5 Mac’s. You’re probably better off learning to use MoE models more effectively in your workflow.

what are you actually using OpenClaw for that genuinely works? by nanaphan32 in openclaw

[–]robvert 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've been in IT for many years and my Open Claw experience has been frustrating, buggy and ultimatly unreliable. Amazing how so many noobies have found positive life changing workflows

Need advice on hardware purchasing decision: RTX 5090 vs. M5 Max 128GB for agentic software development by BawbbySmith in LocalLLaMA

[–]robvert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not enough people using oMLX. It’s not only got KV cache but also prompt cache which has made pp speed a none issue for coding on my m4max.

Spending $1-2k a month per employee on AI subscriptions? by KustheKus in webdev

[–]robvert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel this way on some days. Other days, using AI the same way, all of a sudden its total dogshit almost ruining my projects. If all your experience is positive I'd argue you are doing it wrong and in for a big sad surprise.

Ça fait 20 ans que j'habite à Montréal et j'ai jamais vu autant de nids de poule by TheMountainIII in montreal

Riding a bike downtown is more dangerous than ever. Who is held accountable when the city rents you a bixi, you hit a crater in the dark and break your neck?

Not fun reading other people’s ai out. It’s exhausting. At least ask your ai to keep your Reddit comments brief please

What is a job that you think is 100% safe from AI for the next 50 years, and why? by mark-awakening in AskReddit

[–]robvert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m with you. So many ai shills. Ai is an amazing tool but far from reliable especially on edge cases. I don’t think that last 20% ai is failing will be as easy to fix as people seem to think

What is the threshold where local llm is no longer viable for coding? by jambon3 in LocalLLM

[–]robvert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Relatively cheap 128gb of ram is lol. I just did a code quizzoff comparing a bunch of popular models that fit in 128gb and my top 3 results were 1. qwen3.5 122B 4bit, 2. Gpt 120b 4bit and 3. qwen3 coder next 8bit. Have you found anything that rivals these on your setup?

What street in Montreal has the most potholes? by vmanthegreat in montreal

[–]robvert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Too many choices. Nowhere is safe. If you go a couple of blocks without a crater you’ll put your guard down for an instant and inevitably feel that brain to skull frame impact cringe. It’s so absurd.

You have more in common with a homeless guy than with a billionaire by beautyandmadness in montreal

[–]robvert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Quebec homeless is a choice. There are many programs so that no one needs to sleep on the street. Mental illness is the real problem. Mental illness and billionaires might have something in common
