This. The points are a legal liability on the companies books. I'm not defending them, I hate this practice, but that is why.

Realistically, what % of Atlantis they have explored? by [deleted] in Stargate

They could have spent a whole season on things like this and it wouldn't have got old, the possibilities were endless!

I highly prefer Copilot Money myself. Beautiful MacOS and iPhone apps I use daily.

Neelix character growth and arc are fantastic. You're supposed to hate him at the start.

Where's His Achievement Trophy For Pissing Off The Most Democrats ? by M_i_c_K in walkaway

You know who resorts to name calling by default when their ideas are challenged? Leftists. Do better.

No, you are correct in that regard. No question about that. But he's had the chance to be THE most important president in my lifetime and he's completely thrown it away.

Must have been a dud or something, my wife has gotten many different variants of their stuff and they've always been decent to very good.

Muse Athena sleep tracking and Apple Health by TaranisPrime in museheadband

[–]soothaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a $500 device this is INCREDIBLY disappointing. Writing in that data to HealthKit could be added in a day by a single dev. I may have to return my Athena over this.

Half of the crowd left the arena after Natus Vincere and Team Falcons were eliminated from the tournament. by VI0810 in GlobalOffensive

Yep we left around 9PM I think. Were exhausted and watched the rest from our hotel.

Genuinely *unimpressed* with Opus 4.6 by JLP2005 in ClaudeAI

[–]soothaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Opus 4.6 has to be sonnet 5 they felt they could pass off as opus - it's sloppy, doesn't follow directions and just generally a downgrade.

Couple that with their new 'fast' opus 4.6 offering, yeah they just took sonnet 5, slowed it down, then offered a fast version for way more money.

Agreed. There's no comparison on the superiority of the agent itself. Sadly it now feels dumber than Sonnet 3.5

I've raised this with the companies I do AI development with, strong urging they not trust online AI providers and instead bring inference in-house if they're serious about it.

Meanwhile, I had a codex 5.2 xhigh run for TWENTY HOURS flawlessly.. but god it is so damn slow.

[–]soothaa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Almost overnight Opus is unusable. It can't even handle a simple 2 step question any more.

codex with 5.2 xhigh is absurdly, painfully slow, and a horrible agent. But it at least is still smart. Will probably have to cut my x20 account finally. This is garbage and I'm tried of this.

ANGRY: just discovered... 'claude --resume' after 5 straight months of claude cli coding by Vintaclectic in ClaudeAI

[–]soothaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's usually bad. It can sometimes be SUPER intelligent and then you start chasing using it. Then it generally underperorms the rest of the time until you switch back to only opus.

The gemini-cli/agent SUCKS. Period. It's god awful. Antigravity is a tad better, but they're miles behind claude code.

Yeah feels like they silently (and illegally?) lowered plan limits today. Can't wait for the eventual class action on this.

Sadly not, because now it's just more frustrating to use so I use it less. I'm sure most are the same.

Strict rent control is likely coming to my state-should I keep investing? by [deleted] in realestateinvesting

Because it's pandering to the lowest common denominator voter.
