wondered why vscode was running like total shit after a recent update, then it popped up telling me the extension host crashed and offered to do an extension bisect so im like sure why not

i go through picking can/can't reproduce just based on vibes of how shit it was running

i have 116 extensions installed and THIS was the end result of that, joker moment of a fucking generation. fuck microsoft

(if you reply to this telling me to not use vscode i will probably block you, yes that includes suggesting codium or whatever. i wish this wasn't the workflow i ended up with but it is and now isn't the time for me to switch)

@cas I thought there are options to disable the AI stuff.

@teohhanhui i think so? they make it harder and more obfuscated with every dang update

@cas There's also this whole fiasco lately:

https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/pull/310226
https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/pull/313931

@teohhanhui truly gross :/

@cas one update on Arch vscode hijacked all file extensions, including directories. Then I decided it's time to learn the magic of modal editors. Couldn't be happier. Vscode is such a bloated pile of junk it was absolutely amazing how quick writing code on proper tools could be.

@cas recent update did something similar to me, turned out to be a different extension but I'm guessing they've fucked around with the extension host or something

@cas Somehow it gets even worse?

I'm pretty sure vscodium is basically the same as if you got vscode straight from your distro repos (unless your distro just ships the precompiled binaries straight from microsoft, which is a bad idea™)

Not that I looked much into vscodium these past few years.

@cas so vscodium won't really do much
