  • Wayland is the future, and the present. I wouldn’t shy away from it. I’ve been using it for years with multi-monitor and multi-gpu, it beats the hell out of having to dink with X11 about once a week to keep my screens in the right place.

    And with X11 pretty much on life support, it’s time. And Mint isn’t the distro to do that on.

    Ubuntu doesn’t push flatpaks, they push Snaps. But Ubuntu has a ton of other issues, so YMMV. It might be the one for you, who knows.






  • I’m using vscode/Roocode with Gosucoder shortprompt, with Requesty providing models. Generally I’ll use R1 to outline a project and Claude to implement. The shortprompt seems to reduce the context quite a bit and hence the cost. I’ve heard about Cursor but haven’t tried it yet.

    When you’re using local models, which ones are you using? The ones I mention don’t seem to give me much I can use, but I’m also probably asking more of them because I see what Claude can do. It might also be a problem with how Roocode uses them, though when I just jump into a chat and ask it to spit out code, I don’t get much better.
