Sidebar: the human eye is kinda shit at resolving even if you have perfect (human) vision. Ultra-HD-4k whatever TVs basically can't get any better than they already are, other than just getting cheaper. Increased resolution becomes arbitrary once they run up against the limitations of the human eye. I wanna be able to see what hawks see.

yeah it's false advertising for sure, couple of these companies exist with the idea to rip off boomers with family photo albums and VHS tape "resto" shit.

already stopped using Gemini again, it's just so fucking bad compared to DeepSeek and ChatGPT at the moment

and then there's this

and people are going to use Gemini because it's Google and they can (i assume) not let you use a different LLM with your Gmail and other Google services if they want to, and do what Apple did with the walled in garden approach to retaining users.

Gemini on my phone constantly interdicts me talking to the speaker to set a laundry timer.

thats pretty cool, i like your projects and appreciate you sharing.

I got a new keybord a little while ago, a keychron, its pretty cool, its heavy as F though, which idk if i like or dont like or dont care.

it is like an updated version of the old windows keyboard, similar, but sleeker, and with LED.

the colors are a little more modern, and pop in a cool way, but it sitll feels like its 1987.

Kind of trending my desk to look like modern retro? But usually by the time i get there, I start changing it to something different where I started, it's endless non complete cycle.

I need a flatscreen monitor, with that white/grey plastic instead of black...

Like I want my desktop to look like the keychron version of this:

I wonder if I could get a big nice 4k monitor that I can detach the plastic from and paint.

yeah i was looking at a oldschool IBM retro clone also, can't beat how those old keyboards feel and type and Keychron ones are good, this Chinese Owpkeenthy one was like half the price so i was like fuck it w/e

i thought it would be way harder to adapt to one of these 60% keyboards because ive never typed on one before but after like 2-3 posts here i had adapted fine, i just gotta get used to new function keys for shit that has its own button on a normal keyboard

yeah, even the full sized keyboard i was using before was pissing me off with the button layout, like for media controls, the hitting Fn + skip forward skip backwards for music on a playlist is a fucked up game of twister with your fingers.
