Godot's GitHub has increasingly many pull requests generated by LLMs and it's a MASSIVE time waster for reviewers – especially if people don't disclose it. Changes often make no sense, descriptions are extremely verbose, users don't understand their own changes… It's a total shitshow. #godotengine
What, has Linux become mainstream now? :O
Life as a guy from Western Norway living outside of Oslo (Eastern Norway): Kids keep asking me which country I come from, and why I speak so strange 🤷
Surprisingly, my Wife (who's not even from Norway) does not get those questions as often as me.
@theonion.com is so worth the subscription for this
Imagine using the word "spectacular" to describe other people's misfortune 😅

Finally went through the effort of deleting and archiving most of my GitHub repos. A handful will remain as active mirrors, which will get updated as I work on them. The rest are either gone (no value in preserving + forks), or rendered inactive (has some value).
Phew, that was a lot of clicks!

I have long been advocating for a more technologically independent Europe, and as #Trump has become increasingly hostile I've been hoping to see a reaction from our side. But I'm starting to think this reaction will never come, even if he starts seizing European territory. Please prove me wrong🙏
There are plenty of great alternatives out there: #Linux (instead of #Windows), #LibreOffice (Instead of #Microsoft Office, Scaleway (cloud computing/web hosting), Plausible Analytics, Mailbox/Tuta (instead of GMail)..
And there's even a website for #European alternatives: european-alternatives.eu
Can we all please start transitioning away from American tech infrastructure before it's too late?
I'm not against USA, and I have some great friends there. But #Trump now sees #Europe as an enemy, and I find it scary that he can turn down off our digital infrastructure overnight if he wants to.
It took me way too long, but I finally made a new video! youtu.be/adxiFsCSy44
I still feel awfully fresh to video making, especially videos that go beyond a couple of minutes. Still got a few kinks to iron out, but I figure I'll learn as I go.

Eh... Is autumn becoming the time of year when you make an obligatory "I'm also on Mastodon" post on a social media platform that's spiraling out of control?

I post mostly the same stuff there, just reworded. Also video quality is much better!
True, for programming I'm not at all afraid of being replaced.
For artists, it's another story. It's already replacing photographers, artists and models in the advertisement industry. I'm so used to seeing AI-generated ads now that I'm starting to think it's normal to have 7 fingers on one hand 😅
Noted! Can I eat too much moon cake though? :D
Happy moon cake day!
