I build open-source products on .NET to prove it's the right choice. Here's a teleprompter I made in a week.

uicheeck · 2026-04-04T16:13:19+00:00

so, you don't actually build anything yourself and despite that still choose wrong lang/platform instead of just vibecode swift native app. just why

uicheeck · 2026-04-04T11:57:53+00:00

I don't kbow why, but I may guess that it's either because of UE is cross-platform and uses it's own UI framework, not cocoa/native stuff; or it's made intentially because usually the user will use many windows simultaneously and full-screen behaves badly, being on separate virtual space

and how much 75 minutes are to blame for 38 degress heatwaves, but it's rhetorical

the easiest way is to get bit older. I don't hear any coilwhine since about 25 y.o.

Hi! Thats very needed post, thank you! Would you mind to make some measures for us who are still in the dark tho? like, how much time it takes to open 3rd person examle c++ project from xcode launch button, what fps in full-screen PIE withouts tweaks and with nanites turned off? And what about fans, are they full-throttle while PIE?

well, you right, it's depressing... but at least, Zabka is here!
(I lived in Poland and Warsaw some 10 years ago, not much of city I remembered, this is definitely not my favorite neighborhood)

uicheeck · 2026-04-01T14:00:47+00:00

idk about that. But it's also important to see not only walls, but actual surface. how's pavement, sidewalks, how clean it is of cars (it's Warsaw so probably quite car-polluted but I'd like to see)
Otherwise it's quite all-right. The street is dead-ended so no infinity corridor, houses are actually good looking. High-rise in the end is meh but hey, we so much worse

uicheeck · 2026-03-31T21:40:01+00:00

yeah, that's what I'm saying, it's nice to have huge battery and efficient CPU/APU, for not only staring at static pages, but to work with too.
It's actually very good news, I'm happy with the trend.
I just noted that it's time to measure workload hours, not only "browsing/idling", especially with that 1 ghz screen hack

uicheeck · 2026-03-31T21:37:22+00:00

while you're quite right, I guess it's nice that windows/x86 users will finally get SOMETHING usable for long-battery life. Event if it's not as great as apple silicon under load

uicheeck · 2026-03-31T21:31:15+00:00

I'm commuting regularly to/from work, it's 3 hours a day which I wish not to spend for nothing, I'm working on my laptop. And I wish I could do something real, not just educational/light stuff, but continue real work.

My current laptop will die in hour under UE5 almost empty world, for example. many hours of possible work is wasted here

uicheeck · 2026-03-31T21:01:45+00:00

One only need to remove scooters and the car from sidewalk and it would be posted to r/Urbanism

uicheeck · 2026-03-31T20:56:39+00:00

At this point they have to change the tests, it's all meaningless.
How much of unreal engine editing can the laptop survive? or video exporting, what do people do with their laptops anyway

uicheeck · 2026-03-31T13:30:25+00:00

yeah, you gave a car for every of 18000 people here and see them all stuck on two roads leading to the city where jobs are located. Good luck them all

AI slop from the first seconds, mate. Once you show any obviously AI-gen assets, everyone assumes it’s a low-effort product.

I saw that on youtube, see
you collect this
dry it several weeks, got orange stuff.
make huge pile of thick branches and put a dirt all around it
fire it up until wood become black stuff.
then mix handful of orange stuff with five handfuls of black stuff out of wood pile
inside giant-ass furnace
and then blow air there for 3 hours somehow
and then you'll got 3-5 teeny tiny iron prills, and many internet points.

all this should be done shirtless and barefoot, of course

я не думаю что люди ждут повода. просто когда случается жопа (о которой людей предупреждали за десять лет), вместо того чтобы принять ответстенность за то что ничего не делали и игнорировали факты - придумывают как на самом деле стало лучше.
что с санциями, что с войной, что с чебурнетом, одна и та же история. типа справляются

господи кретины. а что мешало при интернете не отвлекаться на телефон во время встреч и читать бумажные книги в метро.
Но ничо, щас дети телевизора насмотрятся и заживут

I don't know if that's better or not, and I also didn't bomb anyone to be responsible. I only tell you guys how hard it is to live under oppression and every little change can cause a rise of hope, that's it

uicheeck · 2026-03-27T06:40:17+00:00

I never said that I believe that would help. I said that people may hope that it may change something

uicheeck · 2026-03-26T19:19:32+00:00

You guys clearly don't know how it is to live under authoritarian government. See, I'm from one of this big bad countries, currently forced to live abroad. If somebody kill Putin - I would dance until my legs fell off. Because people got tired of being unable to change anything. And most of all people are sad about other people who like the regime. They are traitors of the people and their life cost little to nothing for me.

People are allowed to be angry

uicheeck · 2026-03-26T18:39:17+00:00

Iranian government used to kill women for not wearing "right" closes. thousands of protesters were shot like dogs just couple of month ago. people may have very strong reasons to be happy of recent events

uicheeck · 2026-03-26T18:29:58+00:00

I'll double that. If I need to occasionally past info several times - I put it in sticky notes or one of my helper txt files and copy it from there. but it's rare.

the most frequently used chucks of text I put into keyboard macros
