Not that tbjs necessarily helps you but the battery in switch pro contolers was really easy to replace, spent like 5$ getting new ones from Ali express. Maybe try looking it up?

Exactly this. My experience with our companies wrapper on Claude lines up with OP, not this comment thread.

Everyone seems to forget everything you write is a liability. You can’t have bugs in code that is never written or generated, comments that don’t exist never become inaccurate, not duplicating “knowledge” into a repo doesnt have a risk of not aligning with business goals long term as they change.

From what I’ve seen, people claiming a “10x increase” did not have a strong foundation to begin with and/or did not utilize tools like IDEs effectively. No offense to thread OP, which seems itself a generated response, but in the time he has done all of that a strong engineer would be long done. Everything listed should be done before ever getting into code along with business and product partners.

Yeah, amds fault or not my tv only has HDMI and dealing with adapters seems like a pain. I did read something recently though that someone has developed third party support for it so maybe soon it can be added by the user

VR has been broken for at least this long, you can’t use vrr with 144hz, the list goes on at least with linux. Been hoping AMD matches them for hardware next gen (and gets hdr on linux)

Yeah I think I mostly agree, my comments were mainly about atomic distros, bazzite being the first I’ve used as the example

TLDR: its not that it just works, but that it basically always just works

I currently run a mix of Ubuntu, fedora and bazzite machines at home and by far my favorite is bazzite. I may be a bit different as I work with containers, docker and k8s every day but it did take a little for it all to “click” for me. Once it did I’ve had no issues running anything with bazzite. On the other hand the number of hours I’ve spent chasing down issues on the Ubuntu machines due to dependency conflicts is embarrassing. Those issues simply do not happen with bazzite and the time I’ve spent learning the new mentality has been more enjoyable and significantly less than fixing problems on either distro. The atomicity and forcing isolation using containers is a paradigm shift, looking at is as workarounds, distro limits and Mcgyvering sort of misses the forest for the trees, but I get that its not for everyone

Keep in mind HDR over HDMI doesn’t work for now either 🤣

I’ve also been using bazzite with an nvidia card since the windows 10 death, my only callout would be VR is utterly broken for me. This isn’t a Bazzite problem, its due to nvidia drivers and impacts all Linux when using a wired headset (wireless is fine). I’m currently looking for a second cheap nvme to install windows to for just VR. If you have an AMD card everything works great. I’ve spent hours tinkering, switching to Monado and Xrizer from steamvr while tinkering with environment variables. Best I can do is get HL playable on 90hz with my index and a 3090. On windows I was doing 120hz pretty easily. Heres to hoping AMD really steps up next gen because I don’t want to support nvidia.

NP, I figured it out by looking through the logs, I think you can turn them on in the settings

You have to find the right plugin version. The ones on the website use different versions than the one installed by ujust. I can’t remember where I found them but it was a github repo

I tried mint and Ubuntu on a jail broken Chromebook and it had no audio, fedora worked out of the box

For VR apparently AMD is the way to go, but they don’t have HDR for hdmi 2.1 so no matter what there are tradeoffs currently, at least on my setup

To be honest, a lot of my issues are probably just getting used to plasma over gnome. The atomic part so far hasn’t really been inconvenient

Yeah apparently the current fix is to just get an AMD card or a wireless headset. I’m trying to get a steam vr alternative running which is non trivial on bazzite, but it just “avoids” the bugs in the nvidia wired drivers

Bazzite for the past two days has not been as easy as everyone makes of sound, and I say this as a software engineer that works with Linux 5 days a week. Some of the UI choices are just weird and VR support with Nvidia is so horrible I may end up having to dual boot.

My wife’s pixel, I think a 7a, had the battery issue. It started going from 20% to 0 instantly then the back expanded and smelled like burning. Google replaced the battery but the cracked rear case was not covered… It was less than 1.5 years old

As a lefy this is more or less spot on. Pick guards are also on the wrong side usually

We do already know about model collapse though, genai is essentially eating its own training data. And we do know that you need a TON of data to do even one thing well. Even then it only does well on things strongly matching training data.

Most people throwing around the word agents have no idea what they mean vs what the people building and promoting them mean. Agents have been around for decades, but what most are building is just using genai for natural language processing to call scripted python flows. The only way to make them look coherent reliably is to remove as much responsibility from the llm as possible. Multi agent systems are just compounding the errors. The current best practice for building agents is “don’t use a llm, if you do don’t build multiple”. We will never get beyond the current techniques essentially being seeded random generators, because that’s what they are intended to be.

It seems like you are implying that models will follow Moore’s law, but as someone working on “agents” I don’t see that happening. There is a limitation with how much can be encoded and still produce things that look like coherent responses. Where we would get reliable exponential amounts of training data is another issue. We may get “ai” but it isn’t going to be based on llms
