OpenVibe.Live + PowerChat.Live

About this stream

Overall, the stream appears to be a casual, tech-focused talk show set in a home kitchen/kitchen-studio space, with a rotating host(s) chatting, reacting to chat, and riffing about programming, AI tools, gadgets, and recent tech news. The vibe is informal and improvised, mixing live banter about coding workflows, software like Claude, Codex, and Premiere, and occasional offhand humor, with intermittent audience chatter, laughs, and sound cues. Topics bounce between debugging/developer life, AI ethics and capabilities, device hardware (Macs, chips, pre-orders), and light, personal banter about relationships and daily life, all while maintaining a relaxed, tech-nerd camaraderie.

I wonder if I can still use chatbot, then I get fetch.

There is a red light flashing. What does it mean?

Uh, question. I think that's my hard drive light. It's kind of annoying, though.

It's also like brighter sometimes than other times.

Yeah, that is affecting my epilepsy. You look sober. Are you doing-

I'm coding.

Always these coding.

Yes.

Why is too much concentration?

Beer is shit in the bed.

What?

Wait, did you just give me a throw a hiccup?

Yeah, that's what you say.

For a hiccup?

I don't think anyone's ever done that for a...

Yes.

Takiz.

Great value.

Takim.

Take.

Exactly.

Kiz.

Hey, Kiz.

Congratulations, you are a top creator out of one.

We did it, bro.

I'm so proud of us.

You know, it's been a long time coming.

It's been a long time going.

Me too.

Celebration, I shall drink some black coffee.

Why is it black?

I don't like creamer that much.

I think it's brown.

No, it's pretty black.

Look, I guess maybe you...

That's black.

Come on.

Put cream in it.

Pretty black.

If you put it on a white leaf, it is brown.

That's probably true.

If you just put like a drip drop.

Is clapping liberating?

Maybe.

Not really.

What does he say at the door?

Who's he?

The fridge door.

They said, "Here's food."

I was replying to what they said.

OMG, you're a father.

Are they a perfect celebrity?

Yes, or so they say.

Yeah, you can't lie on the internet.

Wait, I thought it was a kid lol.

That was my girlfriend.

She is tiny though, because you're so small.

I guess you're not really like...

Uh, no, I'm not.

Well, I don't know, you're...

That's false.

That's his non-binary trans life partner.

You're like...

You're like five...

You're like five foot, right?

Or maybe five foot.

Exactly.

Yeah.

So I'm definitely bigger than you.

But you're right, I'm not very big.

I'm not tall by any means.

I wish we had some weed.

Nah.

Turn on this power track shit right now.

Four foot two is Gaga's height.

Is that serious?

I bet she's five.

You mean Lady Gaga?

Five foot one.

Six asterisk.

She's one inch taller.

Do you have Pokemon Crystal for Game Boy?

Five asterisk.

Did you get your Game Boy?

Not yet.

So you don't...

You don't have it either then?

Unless you got the game before you got the Game Boy.

It's in LA now.

Wait, where was it from?

Was it not?

No, I'm asking if you have Pokemon Crystal somewhere in Cali.

Nah, I don't have shit, bro.

I might have a ROM of Pokemon Crystal somewhere.

Yeah.

I don't even know what even was on the Game Boy Color.

Yeah, Pokemon Crystal and like maybe some Zelda.

Oh, what the else was on there?

Um, like Mario.

What was popular back then?

I didn't know your girlfriend.

Partner.

My girlfriend is my girlfriend.

Partner.

Non-binary life.

Non-binary trans life.

Patrick said partner.

Niii-

Non-binary trans female life partner.

GO IN THE HELL!

That's so loud.

That's very modern of you.

What about lolz?

Lolz's kinda like you know?

It is very inclusive of you.

What about lolz?

Lolz's kinda like you know?

Still more sniper.

Lolz's kinda like you know?

What about lolz?

It's because I don't have like thousands of people.

200 for Pokemon crystal with box.

No, they don't.

What the fuck?

What do you want to fucking-

Wait, what?

I didn't even see what you said, duh.

1200?

It must be like, graded.

No?

No.

What the fuck?

Then it must be in extremely good condition.

Open box played.

1200.

They're just trolling dude, there's no way.

What's them name?

How about my girlfriend?

Moosley.

Lucy.

Yeah, Lucy.

Moosley.

Like, Goosley.

Moosley.

Some noise, I need some background noise.

Sunseed.

Goosley and Moosley.

GAYLY.

Pop out.

Closed.

The wrong thing.

Closed.

Machaya.

Passvers.

P.

Nice to meet you, Lucy.

They said nice to meet you.

Perfect celebrity dude.

Nice celebrity.

Lucy.

Yeah, you're Lucy.

I know it's nice to meet me.

It always is.

Alright.

Ugh.

Well, it's time to ultracode, Patrick.

12 hours till the reset.

62%.

Wow.

We've got 38, whatever, 40, 38.

What?

I will.

Once it gets closer.

You gotta, like, rape it last minute.

Might as well.

You also have to balance your stupid session limit, though.

Even when you're getting close to the global reset.

Quickly.

Do you know?

I guess not, not really, actually.

I don't think I really hit a session limit unless I do an ultracode with some, like,

Not on 20x.

Yeah, I'm on 20x.

But, I don't know, I have gotten close on a session limit when using ultracode and doing

some, like, bunch of shit at once and just being, like, inefficient about it.

But, yeah, I guess I really haven't run into a session limit issue.

i'm actually really happy like the other devs on powerchat team are using codex honestly it seems

like codex kind of sucks recently i don't really had any issues yeah so while they've been struggling

especially a couple days ago like there there was like some uses usage problem with codex or something

i don't know but one of the devs one of the devs said uh jets said i was having dreams this morning

that codex was controlling my alarm clock and was tracking my sleep and it kind of is your content

about and it kind of turned into a nightmare because i was i was like bro it's using all my usage

title should be struck niggas should be called prompters uh well to be fair i do not a code the

old-fashioned way patrick like i am a software engineer that's dedicated i don't even 15 years

of my life to coding oh i don't i don't know does it really matter though like i don't really think

that matters because ultimately like if if the way you code changed completely and now anyone can code

i don't really think that makes why are you not just using ai i am i am that's what that's what i'm

getting at it's like i don't think it makes you any better that you know you know how to code or like

any of that gay shit because who cares i mean maybe it doesn't help it literally doesn't help you can

i don't ever have to open code ai is framework it's not good at the fill in you are right like with my

copilot thing well it's not good at like if you need that's where your knowledge comes in well it is useful

especially if the ai won't do something like if you're trying to make something that it won't make

because of like restrictions and shit like my copilot it kept being a bitch about all kinds of

shit in those cases yeah it does come in handy because the ai isn't fucking it's just denying you

which is annoying so then yeah what i usually do to get around that is like i'll phrase it in like a

different way and it'll code it like the positive way and then i'll just go in and edit myself which you're

right it's like but that's that's really not that useful in my opinion i don't even think ai is the

framework i mean i think it's pretty good at the fill-in if you're on claude and you're using like

opus or fable it's it's great at the fill-in now i think i think it depends on what you're doing like

because if it is something like there's that claude you can spot claude made a mile away wait what i mean

claude air oh oh you mean like the way it looks yeah it's made with claude yeah yeah you're right

about that it's even worse with chat gpt though or uh open ai i feel like claude is at least i think

probably the best at designing but you're not wrong yeah i do agree with that if you're like aware of

of how it makes shit i still think it does a better job people i still think it does a better job than

codex so even i honestly haven't tried 5.6 soul so i'm really i'm really just talking but just from

like seeing the other devs struggle and and also like yeah it's just not as good especially if you

compare that to i have both but haven't used codex in two months yeah i have codex as well but i i don't

have like the hundred dollar plan i just have like the whatever i think i think you get some codex with

just your chat gpt plan which i have i use it i do use it the only thing i really use it for is

generating commit messages for that claude made and like really basic like that i would use haiku for

i'll use codex for just for the like just to not use claude usage but honestly like the limits and

like the rate limits aren't when you're on the 200 planner it's not really a problem i can code two to

three projects pretty much 24 7 maybe not 24 7 but like a lot and still not not not really i'll hit

like the 90 threshold but i usually still have some usage by the end of the week especially this week

and like some it's annoying how it's a about using fable and it'll like switch to

opus automatically i don't that's so annoying it gets triggered on like tiny things too

Just switch back and keep going.

Yeah, that's what I try and do.

But when it's like my bot project,

which is all about like making money and botting and trying to be like,

at this point, it's like just kind of like a more bot open claw.

Like it's, it's, it uses like a special Chrome

and it like actually like off screen moves the mouse around and stuff.

So that like seems like an actual human.

Because I actually got a, I got a fucking thing from Reddit that

like they detected me as a bot or whatever.

They made me do like a human verification.

So I had to make my bot a little smarter because

because like it was like kind of posting too long.

Like it would go on like a 12 hour session of posting or like

it did have behaviors that would make it seem like a bot.

So I had to make it like smarter and also make it

like do the runescape type shit where it like moves a mouse around

and actually is moving.

Well, dude, that's not impossible.

Come on, there's some neckbeards who definitely,

there's probably some neckbeards on there posting 24 hours straight.

But yeah, it was, it was kind of fucking obvious.

I didn't know Reddit had that type of system.

That, yeah, it makes you do a, it makes you either do a human verification

or it has you like just register as a bot,

which yeah, limits your shit, I guess, or like whatever it does really.

I don't know if you can post, I'm assuming maybe,

but gives you a bot badge or some shit or an app badge.

I don't know.

I just did the human thing.

And then I chilled out the bot.

I haven't actually used it in a couple of days though.

But ultimately it was because it was too honed in.

Like the thing is now it's able to use different websites.

So like it'll, it'll use Reddit a little bit and then it'll fuck off

and use something else, which that automatically just,

I haven't gotten hit with the shit like that human verification again.

But there's not much info on what,

I mean, obviously Reddit's not going to publicize how the fuck,

because obviously people just copy paste how it works

and then make a bot around it.

But I did a little bit of research and I think I'm, I'm good.

As long as it doesn't post too long as well.

I also did some shit so that like telltale AI writing things are avoided.

I'm wondering if X has that.

Probably does.

Brock is a black person.

Makes you say that?

I free will.

Free will?

them.

do you want to make one of the chickens the roast meta has decided to settle the massive teen

addiction lawsuit brought by state attorneys general for a cool 17 billion dollars and in

exchange they're promising to actually change how kids use instagram and facebook settlements are

weird though you know meta denies all wrongdoings but also agrees to stop doing these wrongdoings

i'm james shive this is tech linked and california's attorney general rob bonta says meta is finally

agreeing to implement foundational changes to how teens use instagram and facebook teens don't use

facebook beyond stronger age verification our favorite meta has agreed to impose actual restrictions

on teen accounts by default we're talking a mandatory two-hour daily limit silencing notifications while

they're supposed to be in class and a total lockout overnight so the youth can you know sleep instead

of browsing ai slop meta is also banning the weird plastic surgery filters that make everyone look

I look like Vicky Rourke, thank God.

and the financial hit Meta's taking,

they'll potentially be paying $1.27 billion a year

over the next decade.

But considering they've made $201 billion

in 2025 revenue alone,

it's the equivalent of a corporate parking ticket.

What's arguably more annoying is that 30%,

5.3 billion of that settlement,

relies on YouTube and TikTok,

matching the amount and adopting the same rules.

Otherwise, Meta doesn't have to pay it.

Don't we all love it when court settlements

come with a referral bonus?

- Apple's new M6, Mac mini and the M5, Max and Ultra,

Mac studios are up for pre-order and they're not cheap.

But when it comes to things that will run

an obscene amount of local AI, what is?

The Mac mini starts at 900 bucks

and uses the chip that Apple decided was dull enough

to skip making Pro, Max and Ultra variants of.

It's also a whopping 50% more expensive

than the M4 mini from 2024.

While the M6 does have-

- Good job, Patrick, you just found a bug.

- Those weren't good enough to make the press release.

So Apple is really focusing on comparing it.

Instead, to the M4.

The M5 Max studios, on the other hand,

are real monsters.

The M5 Ultra is Apple Silicon's first quad-die chip.

That's where they use UltraFusion

to weld two dual-die M5 Max chips

to make eldritch horrors beyond our comprehension,

which explains the $5,499 starting price.

The M5 Max isn't half bad either.

And Apple actually kept it the same $2,500 price tag

as the previous M4 Max.

But if you wanna upgrade to a 40-core GPU,

a nice little gotcha is waiting,

as while the upgrade only costs $300,

choosing it forces a $300 RAM upgrade as well.

Bundling, making it twice as expensive.

But for people spending their kids' college fund

on clawed tokens, it might be worth it.

Twitter has sent a cease-and-desist letter to Knitter,

the open-source project that allowed folks to look at tweets

without using Twitter directly.

Knitter is now offline,

with Zadeus, the project's maintainer,

pausing work and saying he's seeking legal advice.

Xcancel, a site that relied on Knitter

to mirror tweets and Twitter feeds,

has also been taken offline

after receiving a letter from Twitter.

The shutdown means users who relied on these services

to doom-scroll through insane tweets

without an account are officially out of luck,

at least for now.

This isn't Twitter's first time messing with Knitter.

It killed the service off with API changes in 2024,

only for Knitter to eventually bounce back.

So Twitter may have knocked it down,

but I bet users will be back to damaging

their mental wellbeing without supporting Elon Musk real soon.

I hope.

The Quick Bits are big into Warhammer
