I have been on the hunt for this pedal, and it is now stupidly expensive. I hope they rerelease it one of these days


Nothing more disappointing than seeing a super cool project and reading the super long github readme, only to see right at the bottom "I vibe coded this application"


Yes, it is not the cool idea that matters. It is the tools that are important.


IMO, it goes against 'self-hosted' too. Self-hosting for your own data, control of it, and handling of it. Self-hosting to learn new things and scratch your own itch for a niche product. AI vibe coding doesn't have any of that. Literally an _idea_ that someone else implements and you the 'coder' don't really have any control or understanding of.

Why would I want to take ownership of that for my own security?


it’s respectful of everyone’s time if the “vibe coded disclaimer” is at the TOP of the readme, not the bottom. Why bury that in the fine print?

It’s also a very good indicator of how invested the author is in the repo. Is this a throwaway weekend project? Is it their “baby” so to speak? Should i even bother asking the author a question if i run into an issue, after all, they didn’t write any of the code so…


It was legit faster to delete and redownload this game than update it since steam considered my SSD too full (WITH 200 GIGS FREE) to download the files to said SSD, instead opting to use my SLOWEST HDD as the cache drive for the download.

It would then proceed to download the update in 5 minutes and spend 8 HOURS UPDATING.

A full download of the game? 10 minutes.

Glad to see this update. I hope more games follow suit


I remember how pre-loading some games turned out to be slower for me because downloading it at launch meant decrypting it directly from the network, but decrypting files on drive that are already encrypted doubled the IO and that was too much random access for my hard drive
