I remember when Snapchat was extremely popular for messaging. One of the worst apps I've ever used. Just an absolutely atrocious UI.

Yessir I've basically run into all of that. It's fucking infuriating. It really is like talking to a toddler at times. There seems to be a limit to the complexity of what it can process before it just starts messing everything up. Like once you hit its limit, it will not process the entire thing no matter how many times you fix it together like your example. You fix one problem and then it just forgets a different piece. FFFFFFFFFF.

Dude forgetting stuff has to be one the most frustrating parts of the entire process . Like forgetting a column in a database or just an entire piece of a function you just pasted in... Or trying to change things you never asked it to touch. So freaking annoying. I had standing instructions in it's memory to not leave out pieces or modify things I didn't ask for and will put that stuff in the prompt and it just does not care lol.

I've used it a lot for coding because I'm not a real programmer (more a code hacker) and need to get things done for a website, but I know just enough to know it's really stupid sometimes lol.

I'm split on this. On the one hand if they didn't have self checkout, they'd need more checkout people. On the other hand, before self checkout they didn't really give a fuck if you had to wait in line (especially Walmart holy shit that was one of the biggest reasons I never went there, the fucking checkout line).

Business Insider so basically yes. I've never seen a "news outlet" blow business people as hard as them so I guess the name fits.

Most systems these days do rewrites (like Apache mod_rewrite) to keep the query parameters out of the URL. Even for pagination. It's not necessarily on by default though because they don't know what environment you're in so you need to do things to enable it (like copy a .htaccess file and enable it in settings).

I don't know these idiot board members think is going to happen after blocking the vote. It's going to go MORE viral now and they'll get voted out even harder.

Article talked about that some here: https://nypost.com/2025/07/12/us-news/arizona-homeowner-david-martin-fined-100-repeatedly-for-giving-out-free-water-in-heat-amid-clash-with-hoa/

Big difference here is that Windows doesn't REQUIRE developers to use the windows store or still pay them money if they use other methods of payment. Anyone can download an installer and install software without the Windows store and Microsoft doesn't make developers pay them still to do that.

Now if they could get away with it they absolutely would like on Xbox. That's why Valve put so much effort into Linux.

All the interviews Stewart has done were so good and that one infuriated me the most. He really did try and push on him a little but the guy repeatedly avoided saying anything that wasn't on message and totally useless. Just really pathetic.

I liked pretty much all the guests he has had on but I genuinely came away hating Jeffries. Dude either doesn't get it or just doesn't care. Just absolutely infuriating.

If it's any consolation I don't think any of them I've run into REQUIRE Internet to use them as a dumb screen. I wouldn't buy one that did either. Lol.

Most TVs are dumb if you never hook them up to the Internet. I don't allow my OLEDs on the Internet generally and simply use a different device to stream and do all the things (webOS is actually pretty cool but LG is obnoxious like this sometimes). Even if your TV is good enough, this shit happens anyway. At least if my shield gets obnoxious, I can replace it with a different device.
