Way back in the late 1990s, there was Slige, a program that generated Doom maps procedurally. With rather nice results, too. So people started posting these maps and saying they made them by hand. Map download sites had to start banning them.

So yeah, the more things change, the more they stay the same.

Yup, I was supposed to say KeepassXC. (…I mean I probably considered using KeepassX at some point, it’s XC’s predecessor after all. But as I recall Keepass 2 worked well enough on Mono, so I didn’t need to switch.)

Also, whoopsies on XC’s AI use. At least they don’t seem to embrace it as much as Bitwarden, but still makes me go hmm.

When Bitwarden got a meh “refresh” of the user interface and started vibe coding stuff (I’m not some super hard-line anti-AI person, but dammit, you absolutely should not vibe code security-critical apps), I switched to KeePassX. It was like coming back home! I used to use KeePass and KeePass 2, switched to Bitwarden for a long while, and while it was neat, KeePassX is just neater. (Doesn’t have cloud sync, but syncing the vault files with LocalSend is easy enough.)

Well, that particular federation can’t be mad at yt-dlp right now, because PornHub support is broken right now. It appears. I’ve been told.

(Except in modern day, it’s the Muse who is the rat, obviously. This timeline is stupid)
