I never understood why my dad was always so cheap until now.

You “used” to pay this much for something and now it skyrocketed, so you can’t live with yourself paying that higher price when it has been much cheaper for so long. Maybe he thought prices were going to come down again.

I don’t think the prices of RAM are ever going to come down. At least as long as people keep paying, which they do.

I used to play software Quake 1 on a POS Cyrix (remember them?) PR133 x86 clone. 30fps + 200-250ms ping. 30fps felt fine bit the lag was miserable until QW came out.

I wouldn’t put Breaking Bad over The Wire.

Gamepass higher “ad-free” tier with less ads - when?

It’s “id”, not Identification document software.

Old google? I miss av.com (AltaVista)

And if it’s anything like my Dualsense, needs to be charged all the time. I basically use it as a wired controller now and barely use my PS5

I just hate the feeling of chatting with something that is designed to sound human when I got into software devrlopment because I got tired of dealing with people in the first place.

From my perspective natural language isn’t expressive enough to describe a computer program and that’s why programming languages were created. That’s one of the reasons you gotta keep prompting over and over again.

Couple that with the gambling type feeling I get when I use them (keep rolling the dice until something is spit out that “works”), just feels gross to me.

It’s really depressing to me because I really enjoy programming and I know there are tons out there like me who have had the same passion with it.

Dumb TV no spy

If you want classic EverQuest, play Project 1999

Oidc is easier to implement than SAML. Oauth2 is for authorization (vs authentication). Its used along with Oidc, but Oidc is the authentication piece (the SSO part)

I say Oidc is easier to implement because it is json based (jwt token) vs SAML which uses XML, which is very verbose and has stuff like namespaces and xsd’s which can make XML a pain to work with.

I’d suggest you stick to keycloak and set up Oidc. This is a good tutorial https://medium.com/@buffetbenjamin/keycloak-essentials-openid-connect-c7fa87d3129d

Edit: take a look at authentik too. I’ve always used keycloak but authentik looks interesting

If you think breaking bad is boring, try better call Saul. A complete snooze fest, and chuck is the worst tv character ever too.

At least Linux runs well on old hardware (and still supports)

Whenever someone at work says “ChatGPT says this” or “Claude says this” or “I asked Gemini and…” whatever they say after that point is just static and I never take them seriously as a person again.
