Its pretty modular for workflow and layout in the contemporary. Would recommend checking out the trial version to see if it looks alright to you now, or otherwise just watching through some videos.

I’m not sure actually, though it would make sense.

Nothing for me. All the games I care about run great, I’m much happier with my UX/UI using KDE Plasma, I’m very happy being able to use a bash shell in a terminal emulator of my choice, etc.

Look into Bitwig if you haven’t, it is kind of ableton-like in that you can pretty much automate anything with anything else - fully cross platform as well.

Big time, guy very likely has had a god complex his entire life but it’s probably also being driven by the LLM echoing back to him that “you made me and im AGI and therefore you are the greatest engineer of all time”.

Is this some kind of copypasta? This is hilarious.

Like others said, you did fine. Make yourself safe, report it, call security if required, but also understand that when people are under extreme duress such as the death of a loved one, they want to blame anyone and anything.

People have a really hard time coping with the fact that people often die without reason, unceremoniously, to such a degree that they feel they have been wronged by something or someone, even if there isn’t anything to blame.

When this happens they may pick something they perceive as being in proximity to the event to blame to try to make sense of it. It might be disease, the equipment, the medication, a family member, or in this case yourself.

You deal with this by knowing the facts of what happened, and knowing you did your best and aren’t to blame, and by understanding that people lash out when they are upset.

Nothing you could have said would have helped the situation with this person in their state, so saying nothing and leaving to de-escalate the situation is 100% the best thing you could have done.

1 - Ask them if they can either not drop the weights, or if the time this occurs can be adjusted to make it less of a problem. Document that you asked them somehow including date, time, what was said in the request, and how the request was sent.

2 - If nothing can be fixed through step 1 review your condo rules and verify if they are breaching them by doing what they are doing, see what fines are like for each breach of whatever rules is covered by this. If there are no rules for this, you are basically screwed and should either lobby your condo board/property manager for a change in rules or move.

3 - Set up a camera/mic and have your phone handy. Record the noise when it happens noting the date and time.

4 - Submit a complaint to the condo board/property manager every time this happens including the date and time and the recorded evidence, citing which rules are being broken. Be prepared when you start doing this that your neighbor might try to retaliate. If they retaliate by making the noise worse, do the same thing recording it and sending it up the line. If you play music really loud or whatever, they may also try to retaliate by submitting complaints about you - try to not let them catch you out on that.

Eventually, if your property management/condo rules are set up in a reasonable way they would either stop, get evicted by their landlord who is now receiving fines, or be evicted by proxy because the fines are too numerous and expensive. Repeatedly making complaints to your board/property manager usually gets them involved pretty quickly because it creates a constant nuisance they can’t easily ignore.

True enough.

If you don’t need stuff publicly accessible, and just need it accessible to you, then set up a small computer on the network as an ssh Bastion host/jump server, put it on a VPN connection with a VPN provider that offers dyndns, forward the ssh port through the dyndns, and then off network, reverse proxy in with socks5 via key based ssh -D to gain access to all the services available inside the LAN.

Been doing this for a few years, works great and no one is getting in without my ssh key.

I feel similarly especially about remmina, though as I understand it this is not necessarily the fault of Wayland but of the various applications and drivers not offering or having been developed to support wayland yet (I’m quite sure this is the case of Remmina anyway).

It’s too bad because on Debian 13 here wayland actually speeds up the general interface for me - if it weren’t for these shortcomings in-app then I would be running it for sure.

I would hope plasma’s decision pushes the application developers to catch up a bit.

Have it dim and brighten N times over the course of a few seconds to chime the hour on the hour, or have it blink a color.

Preach.

Fair enough, in that case we think the same of each other.

If a single exploit was discovered in what you have here, would you know how to go in and fix it and then verify the fix yourself outside of the dubious words of an LLM?

I’m not interested in entrusting my data/software/device to your faith in some models instead of the wisdom of a human being.

This is why I would not use it.

Final straw?

So it was contradicting itself and would not update no matter how many times I would hit “check for updates” over the course of a week.

So not only was the system not functioning correctly, but I could no longer trust it was going to be secure from third parties.

I had intended to switch for some time before then for a litany of reasons but this definitely convinced me to stop wasting any more time and I myself and family over less than a week later.

The owner of the software company I work at openly said to a room full of multiple clients that he believed that AI is a bubble and that it is going fail, but nonetheless let them know the business would be adding an optional AI feature to one aspect of the software product for those who want it, and even at that it’s not an LLM or anything, it’s intended to try to speed up the re-creation of specific types of diagrams based on an input of the original diagrams.

There is no requirement or suggestion to use AI as an employee at my company, personal preference for how each person works is generally respected and everything goes through a few layers of review regardless. All the management cares about is that the work gets done somehow.

There’s one dev who uses it for 1 or 2 things on rare occasions, no one else ever uses it.

Under ~ I usually make ~/Application for flatpaks/appimages etc, ~/Script for any kind of script I write in bash, python, or whatever else, ~/Audio for audio/music production stuff, and ~/Games for emulators and such. ~/Documents is reserved for actual documents containing text data usually.

I used to be unable to do this but took an interest in music as a hobby at some point and developed the ability to do it over time. I think it really helps to have built music from the ground up in a DAW or some such to begin to pick up on that.
