I think it's actually a bad thing to think about money early on. Because it adds a layer of responsibility which I think takes away from simply enjoying life and focusing on what you might be truly passionate about. One of the things I

I keep having issues with Proton (on steamdeck). With that said, these are primarily older games from the 90s. Modern games generally run hassle free.

Isn't this better for them in a way? Won't this reduce their hosting costs, whilst still being relevant to those who actually need deeper information?

The huge application for this I think is video games. Instead of having to create every small detail by hand, you can just create the space in real-life and then have that rendered.

Would this have been any different if these documents were stored non-electronically though? I understand that the whole point of electronic data is that it can be backed up, but if the alternative were simply an analog system then it would

Perhaps this is an aside, but for my anniversary my partner bought me a pair of JBL glasses that also act as headphones. Absolutely love them. They're not absolutely essential, but they're a nice-to-have and they're a lot mor

Yeah, but having to learn new tools is more work than using the tools you already know. That's the point I'm making.

For now. Eventually it will get you 100% of the way there and we'll have the tooling for it as well.

I haven't heard of those, thank you. I think my issue with the smaller players is that I've been burnt too many times where they've just stopped development or cancelled the product because it wasn't profitable. So I

The complexity is what makes it valuable to some people. Put simply, it does more than Obsidian. Do you need that complexity? That's a personal question.

I am concerned about those things, but what I've personally realised is that it's more important to use a tool that you really enjoy using + provides the functionality you want, as opposed to a tool you hate using and doesn't

I agree that it's slow, but it's because of the amount of functionality it provides. If you just want to take plain notes, then yeah. Notion isn't what you want. However if you want sprawling databases that all inter-connecte

As much as I like the idea of Obsidian, I just can't get over all the additional functionality that Notion provides due to the integrated nature of it. In particular, I love how you select text/blocks in Notion and how every line

I wonder if LLMs are actually closer to programming languages, in the sense of how they'll proliferate amongst different companies/people/use cases. Like maybe OpenAI is considered the Java of LLMs, while Claude is more like

I'm not sure if those examples are really applicable when there are perfectly fine alternatives i.e. linux, desktops etc. that don't have those issues. Ultimately it's a choice to be part of those eco-systems, at least from a

Correct. Though it'll be interesting to see how this plays out in the end. I wonder if the centre will change, or if the centre by design remains the same and the outliers merely grow. I'm not sure how it'll play out.

I would refrain from referring to it as incompetence, as I feel that ignores the true nature of the system. The problem is that the Australian political system needs to appease to the centre. That's how parties get into power. As long

I actually have this flashcart. The issue with it is that it drains a heap of battery, so it's not ideal if you're just playing NDS stuff. I also tried to fit the entire DS game library on an SD card for this flashcart, and the ma
