    I’m not sure if I see a reason not to disable sleep on lid close. If you have to carry it around lid open so that it doesn’t sleep, you clearly have a case for wanting to keep the laptop running with lid closed.

    If it’s a “look at me, I’m doing things”, it’s a whole different story.

    I like how they think they’re somehow special for walking around with their laptops open. Business idiots have been doing this forever. It isn’t some new “AI coder” thing. Jane from fucking accounting does this on the way to her meetings too you morons.

      This is the first setting I changed on every laptop I ever owned. So often I had stuff running in the background and didn’t want it to sleep. Plus, windows had that stupid fucking sleep bug, so usually I’d use hibernate anyways.

    Anyone with half a working brain in computer tech would know that, if you really need something to be kept on, but checked regularly, it becomes a fucking server that you connect to using different equipment. But that’s too high tech for vibe-whatevers.

    “I think people think I’m whatever the equivalent of an iPad kid is for a middle-aged woman,” one AI user said.

    Ackshually, we think you’re an absolute fucking idiot.

    Brace yourselves for a windows update that will override the settings with giant bubble buttons on how to turn off sleep mode…

    So relieved I’m fully Linux now

    Does anyone have an example of a real world, AI coded thing? I keep hearing about all these vibe coders, but I’m not seeing any tangible products.

      I make web apps for work, they connect to vendor APIs and generate reports. It’s pretty awesome, but idk i think im a unicorn. Tried to major in CS but just couldn’t be perfect with my syntax and actually failed a couple courses because I couldn’t get full programs to build even though I aced the conceptual on paper-quizzes. So I feel pretty good about knowing and understanding the apps claude is building for me even though i just can’t get all the semicolons in the right place myswlf.

      It’s weird, people love saying they ai code. But they don’t like admitting their products are vibe coded.

      Everfall 2 is the “sequel” to Everfall, a vibe coded disaster of a game. The sequel only exists because the “dev” couldn’t figure out how to get Claude to fix the fact that save games just didn’t work. One week after publishing the original, he abandoned it saying the sequel would be given to everyone who bought the first at a “huge discount”. After push back, he reduced it to free if you DM him on discord. The sequel is almost exactly the same as the first game except saving works more often. Like, literally 100% carbon copy. The screenshots on each steam page is proof of that.

      That new text rendering method was apparently brute force vibe coded in the pixel tolerances.

      No clue if it’s actually good software.

    You’re giving them too much credit. They’re afraid their chatbot will suffocate if they close those lid all the away.
