A collection of fun facts not long enough to make an entire post

Some of these are short, some are long, none of them should actually matter to you—but they all are interesting and weird enough when together to make a full blog post. Most of these are just interesting bugs or things that were never patched out in consoles or games.

Minecraft go map, 3DS go crash

This one is fairly well known already, but one of the quickest ways to crash a 3DS and make it force restart is by clicking something once. To prepare, go to a stronghold, and put your bed there. Specifically, put it in the library if possible. If a library didn't generate, redo these steps over and over into one does. Then, after you placed your bed, set it as your respawn point, and save.

Now, you are ready. Reopen Minecraft for New 3DS, open the world, and spam click every chest as fast as possible. You see, Minecraft for New 3DS makes great use of the lower screen. It uses it for inventory management and maps (that you just so happen to get and keep for free without additional inventory space being used)—but this is its downfall, where the error stems. Anyways, there is a high chance that in one of those chests there is a map. Even though the actual map you use isn't an item in the game, Mojang never remembered to remove the possibility of a map generating inside chests in strongholds for this version. Anyways, if you click the map in any chest (or try to use it), kaboom. Successfully crashed your console.

Minecraft for New 3DS never implemented proper error handling for missing item assets and code because they didn't know it would be a problem. It came with available mods on its proprietary addon store, but these were hardcoded into the game, especially if you downloaded Minecraft for New 3DS with DLC.

Anyways, it is one of the coolest but most interesting ways to crash Minecraft New 3DS Edition with a good bit of backstory behind it.

Mii sleep paralysis??

In Tomadachi Life, Miis normally sleep around the same time you would—sometimes going to bed as early as 6 PM (or 18:00) and usually wake up when the sun comes up, whether or not you have the game open. When they go to bed, it is very obvious they go to bed. Their little window on on the screen showing all apartments will have the curtains shut, and when tapping on their apartment, you can usually see them sleeping and sometimes enter if they are dreaming.

However, your Miis will occasionally get sleep paralysis (as a bug, not a feature). Their eyes will remain open even though the game tells you they are in a sleeping state and none of their animations (e.x. tossing and turning) will properly play, resulting in something resembling sleep paralysis for that Mii. It’ll usually fix itself when you go to some other Mii’s apartment and then back to the original Mii’s apartment, ending the sleep paralysis.

Wii time travel everything kaboom

There was an interesting issue with the Wii that was never patched in its lifetime. It was a calendar overflow glitch, involving setting the date to something like 2099. In doing this, the glitch would occur.

This glitch would essentially softlock you in certain parts of the OS or break features. For example, by doing this, trying to do anything on the Wii Message Board would make it infinitely hang while it was “attempting to fetch” mail or whatever. This may or may not have also caused glitches in time-dependent games like Animal Crossing: City Folk, but I’m not entirely sure because I do not have a copy of that Animal Crossing game to test with.

This glitch was never patched out and remains in the latest version, 4.3, as something you can do. If this bricks your Wii and you can’t change the time settings back, don’t blame me.

Miiverse change? it also go kaboom

There was a weird bug with Miiverse (Nintendo’s proprietary social media on the Wii U and 3DS) where changing your profile picture would sometimes cause Miiverse to crash when you opened it. This bug was exclusive to Wii U, as far as I’m aware.

Rebooting wouldn’t fix this either—it was a bug that was semi-permanent. Once you did it, it would stay forever unless you took measures against it. I have absolutely no idea why it is that way. It might have something to do with a conflict between the cache and the data on the server which causes Miiverse to crash? I don’t really know.

Anyways, the only measure you could take against this bug that was likely extremely problematic is straight up wiping your profile from the console. That’s it. You might’ve been able to redownload games after from the eShop but all of your hard earned save data would be gone, just to fix a bug with Miiverse. Was it really worth it?

Streetpass sucks at counting

Streetpass on the 3DS is known to only allow you to streetpass 10 people at a time, which you would then have to greet in app or if you paid for some other thing in the Streetpass Plaza you could send them to a line with a capacity of 100 people total just to streetpass the next 10.

Why does this cap even exist? Well, it’s pretty simple. Out of the already miniscule RAM available on the 3DS (256 megabytes on old 3DS models or 512 megabytes on new 3DS models), Streetpass got even less of it reserved for all of its operations. This ended up with 10 being the optimal number to work with between storing temporary streetpasses, storing your StreetPass profile, and constantly searching for 3DSes to streetpass.

It might’ve been a little hard to notice then if you were in a rural area and really hard to notice nowadays because of how few and far people who actually still use StreetPass are now, but back then it was really easy to notice when you were at a StreetPass Relay spot, because it would not only hit that 10 limit but it would hit it FAST.

mini fact: new leaf villager go poof but no say… why?

There was a chance in Animal Crossing: New Leaf that if you time-jumped a lot to get exclusive items or benefits and didn’t interact with 1 villager in specific, they would leave without even saying a goodbye to you and the others. Just.. gone. So if you play Animal Crossing, maybe stop time jumping if you do and start interacting with your villagers a little more.

Conclusion

That’s it. Not much else to say. I gave some fun facts. If you want more fun facts like this, then don’t forget to tune into the CheeseBlog soon for another post. Cya!

Some software that got worse over time

There’s tons of software that used to actually work as a service or product but now are just.. sucky. Basically, I’m going to be going over some prime examples of those software and OSes in this blog post.

Windows

Windows just really isn’t good now. You already know what I think about Windows 7 if you read my previous blog post, but I can argue that Windows XP and even Vista after driver updates were similar in usability to 7, once everything is fully updated and you’ve got the service packs for both OSes.

Windows 8, the OS that came right after Windows 7 in 2012, was quite the mess and we all know it. Windows 8.1 tried to fix up some of the major issues of 8 but by then the grave was already dug. Windows 10 wasn’t necessarily that terrible but it still had tons of bloat such as Candy Crush Saga, TikTok, and.. Edge. Windows 11 deserves almost all the hate it gets nowadays, with it nearly doubling the bloat, shoving tons of more ads in your face, and adding artificial barriers like a TPM 2.0 requirement just to (officially) install it.

Discord

Discord is still okay, but it has definitely faced some enshittification. Nitro, an overly expensive subscription service just to get slightly more than the bare minimum, is shoved in your face daily. It’s also faced a lot of UI changes that I wouldn’t necessarily label as bad but not good, either.

The Electron (boo!) app on Desktop is also insanely buggy and slow on older hardware, like what I use, which is why I prefer clients like Aerochat instead that were built from the ground up. The mobile app is slightly better with these kinds of things, but still.

Skype

Didn’t this get shut down? Whatever. When it still existed, it faced a major redesign or two that really messed things up. It used to just look like your average calling and chatting app on desktop that basically everyone used before Discord, but Microsoft decided to shoot themselves in the foot and redesign the entire UI, making it look like some sort of ripoff business version of itself.

Later in this thing’s life, Microsoft really just wanted to kill this thing without actually killing it. Classic Microsoft. Eventually they made Microsoft Teams as a replacement (who even uses that?) while it was still alive but basically on life support, and then they killed it. Imagine that you’re a king and then you see your replacement also take the spot as king, and now you’re gonna get executed at a later date. That’s essentially what happened.

Everyone uses Discord instead of Microsoft Teams, now, so really executing it on the spot was just plain pointless…

Hotmail/Outlook/Windows Live Mail

What even happened here? The naming scheme basically had an identity crisis. Anyways, I can fill you in on what happened here.

At first, Outlook was called Hotmail, and it didn’t have a thing to do with Microsoft. I can’t really tell you what it was like to use it because I wasn’t born in the 90s. Anyways, sometime in the later 90s, Microsoft acquired Hotmail for some large sum of money. It was still called Hotmail, just with the Microsoft name slapped on and some changes.

Later, it decided to walk on the fence between being called Outlook and being called Windows Live Mail. There are references to Outlook as far back as Windows 98 (in Outlook Express), but also references to Windows Live Mail in Vista, 7, and the free Windows Live Essentials pack back in 2012 and 2009. For now, I’m gonna refer to it as WLM for 2006-2012, and Outlook for any time past that.

The introduction of WLM was when Microsoft really started changing things, making a whole new client and making major branding changes. The last version of WLM, WLM2012, was my personal favorite but most feature-filled version of WLM. It would integrate with your Windows Live (now yucky Microsoft) account optionally and also any of your email accounts to, well, email. There wasn’t really anything bad about it; it looked clean, had a ton of features, and most things tying to accounts or always-online were optional, asides from adding your email account. The newest version still works to this day, with workarounds, of course.

Outlook, though, was really the downfall of this emailing service/product. It began to have forced Microsoft accounts to even use it, and it was an earlier sign of everything becoming always-online and requiring accounts. They then, of course, killed off the last good Outlook email client officially for Windows 10 and 11 earlier in 2024, that is unless you PAY for the email client to get a slightly better one that still really sucks. The newer email clients are just Electron and a cluttered web page interface that you could literally just go to on your typical web browser if you wanted to. At this point, in 2025, it is one of the worse mainstream email client/providers to use. just use Gmail or Yahoo as an email provider and Thunderbird, or yet again, Gmail as a client if you want to not do any complicated workarounds like you need to do to use WLM2012 as a client.

Conclusion

A lot of software and OSes, especially when free, just.. suck, unless they’re open source. Not to sound like some nostalgic nerd, but sometimes old is genuinely gold, depending on where you go. And also, not to sound like an ending sequence I use in almost every blog post, but tune in to the CheeseBlog for more cool tech stuff and insights on modern software. Cya!

Hacking Switch GameShare

Hi everyone!! This is gonna be very rushed because I just got the idea fresh on my mind and I don't have the time to write a full blog post, but I swear it'll be worth it.

So, the most recent Switch update included a new GameShare feature, intended on connecting the soon-to-be Switch 2 with the Switch 1. I heard that they recently patched a critical system bug caused by GameShare in update 20.0.0. This has me wondering—if that bug was there, what other bugs are there?

GameShare sounds like a jackpot to me. It's literally just wirelessly executing code on a Switch. Very recent update, there's bound to be glitches.

Now, I wouldn't be surprised if this GameShare feature had encryption or some other key. But I bet you that Switch modders will persevere and find a way to get around that, just like how 3DS modders, Wii U modders, and Wii modders got around other blocks. Once the key is found or something, you can basically just execute code.

Doesn't matter the system model you're on, what region you are in, or anything else. Once you've got the key, you can execute code, and now mod your Switch. It sounds pretty simple to me.

Let me know (in these comments) if this is possible, and remember to let yourself know to tune in to the CheeseBlog for more tech related posts. Cya!

Worldcoin solves a problem that didn't exist

You ever hear about a company so convinced of its own importance that it builds an entire multi-million dollar product just to "solve" a problem it basically invented? Yeah. Welcome to Worldcoin.

So here’s the pitch: spend hundreds of dollars on a futuristic orb with a built-in iris scanner that allegedly proves you're human—because, apparently, CAPTCHA and fingerprint biometrics just aren't cutting it anymore.

They say: “Bots can identify objects now! Click buttons! They’re evolving!”

No kidding. But here’s the thing: CAPTCHA was never just about identifying objects. It was about how you interact with the interface. The way you move your mouse, the tiny hesitations, the imperfect curves, the weird human flaws—that's what sets us apart from bots. Not just clicking a picture of a moped.

CAPTCHA tracks behavior. Bots are still hilariously bad at behaving like actual people. That's why it works. Is it perfect? Nah. But it’s free, widely supported, and doesn’t need you to stare into the Eye of Sauron just to post a YouTube comment.

But here comes Worldcoin, acting like we've all been living in CAPTCHA hell, suffering, begging for a solution. And their big solution? A damn orb that records your biometric data, stores it somewhere you’ll “totally not worry about,” and ties it into a crypto wallet.

Oh, and Sam Altman’s involved. You know, the same guy already working on AI that's smart enough to fake being human—and now he's trying to sell you a product that detects if you're human. Yeah, makes perfect sense.

Worldcoin is literally solving a problem that nobody had, using tech that nobody asked for, in a way that nobody trusts.

Save your money. Save your eyes, humanity, and most importantly, your brain so that you can tune in to the CheeseBlog for another post. Cya!

A guide for making your phone look like an S4

Hello! In today’s blog post, I will show you how you can turn (almost) every single Android phone you have into looking like a Samsung Galaxy S4, or at least with the software. I’ve done the majority of the work for you, so all you have to do is follow along. All work done here can be reversed and will not have any severe consequences. This entire guide is also free, meaning you won’t have to pay to download any of the files or install the apps.

NOTE: This guide can work on Android 14 and 15 devices, but you may not be able to change app icons and some other things the way this guide shows. This guide also assumes you have a Samsung device with the Play Store on it. If you do not have a Samsung, alternative steps will be provided, but it may not be exactly the same. If you do not have the Play Store installed, I highly suggest you go download it now because many steps in this process require it or an app downloaded from it, including alternative solutions.

Step 1: Downloading

In this step, you will, you guessed it, mainly be downloading apps and ZIPs. They will all be provided as links you can download, even from your phone. (the “clickette.org” links can be trusted. its just a cdn I use, the file names are automatically randomized when uploaded)

S4 Wallpapers: https://clickette.org/u/4jjMHB.zip

S4 Ringtones: https://clickette.org/u/hlfqwG.zip

S4 App Icons: https://clickette.org/u/yUkTy0.apk

Clock/Weather Widget: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.droid27.digitalclockweather

Good Lock Labs: https://galaxystore.samsung.com/detail/com.samsung.android.goodlock

Alternative solution for non-Samsung devices

Nova Launcher: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.launcher

Other links

Amazing, easy to use CDN: https://clickette.org

Step 2: Extracting and Setting

In this step, you will be extracting ZIPs that you downloaded in the step earlier and then using the files. You should be able to extract ZIPs in your file manager, but if you cannot do so, then search up “FV File Explorer” on the Play Store and use that file manager for this guide.

In your file manager, go to the same directory (folder) your downloaded ZIP files are in. Scroll down until you see 4jjMHB.zip and hlfqwG.zip, respectively. Tap and hold your finger (long press) on one of the files, and if that isn’t working, then see if there is a button with 3 dots (it’ll look like this: … but vertical) on the file. A context menu should appear, and go through the available options in the context menu until you find something similar to “Extract” or “Unzip”. If you cannot find an option like this or cannot open the context menu, search up on Google or a search engine of your choice “[File manager name] extract ZIP tutorial” (e.x. “FV File Explorer extract ZIP tutorial”) and follow that. Repeat process for both ZIP files.

Now, you should have two folders. Click the first one you want.

Wallpaper Folder

If you clicked the folder with all the wallpapers, you should just see a bunch of PNG/image files. Choose whichever ones you want as your lock screen and home screen, as the wallpapers and some other things varied between models of the S4, so there isn’t one specific pair of default wallpapers for the S4. Me personally, I chose the one with autumn leaves as the home screen and the one with the child hopping in grass as the lock screen. If you cannot find out how to set these images as your wallpaper, just google it, like this example: “set wallpaper on Samsung Galaxy S20 tutorial”, just with “Samsung Galaxy S20” replaced with your phone’s name, and follow that.

Ringtone Folder

If you clicked the folder with all the ringtones, you should just see a ton of audio files. Choose the one you want as your default ringtone, it really doesn’t matter. Me personally, I chose Over The Horizon because it is the brand theme and sounds great. Similarly, to the wallpapers, just search up how to set a ringtone with audio files on your device if you cannot figure out how to.

Step 3: Applications

With the application links provided earlier, you will install Good Lock Labs and the clock/weather widget. The next bits will guide you through setting them up.

Clock/Weather Widget App

Go to the link and install the app on your phone, and open it (obviously). Go through the setup process. Then, once you reach the main weather page, open the context menu with the button on the top-left side of your screen. Click Settings, then Appearance Settings in the menu that pops up, and finally, click Widget skin. Scroll until you find the option called “blue rectangle clock” that looks like a blue rectangle clock and weather widget (duh). Click it and exit the app. Then, progress to the next app.

Good Lock

Go to the link and install the app. When opened, look for HomeUp. Its icon will have a home on what appears to be a… rainbow geyser? Anyways, you will click the download icon for HomeUp on the right side of the screen. If it didn’t automatically open, then click HomeUp. On arrival, let’s deal with settings:

  • Home Screen Settings
  1. Home Screen Grid: In the folder/group of settings labeled Home screen, there will be a setting called Home Screen Grid. Set it 4 by 4 (4x4).
  2. Apps Screen Grid: Same group as Home Screen Grid. Set this one to 4 by 5 (4x5).
  3. Page Loop: In the same folder as HSG and ASG, there will be a toggle called Loop Pages, and it needs to be disabled.
  • Folder Settings
  1. Popup Folder: A toggle in the Folder section. Enable it.

Now, there is another module that needs to be installed from Good Lock. Go back to the main Good Lock screen, with all of the available options. Scroll until you find Theme Park. Install it. Now, enter the app. Remember that APK I made you download earlier? Install it. You’ll need it. Once that Multi Layout Theme is installed, reenter the Theme Park app. In the menu at the bottom of the screen, you will find a button labeled icon which kinda looks like a wrapped gift present. Click it, and there will be a big rainbow button labeled “CREATE NEW”. You probably already have, but if you haven’t, click it. Now, there will be another icon identical to the icon button you clicked earlier, but now bigger and labeled with “Iconpack”. Click it, and in the third party icon packs section, you will find the very same multi theme iconpack I made you install earlier. Now, what you likely will see, is a big fat nothing, except for the S4 wallpaper you installed earlier. Click the 3 dots in the top right corner, then the only button (“Change icons”). Click it. Now, I hate to do this to you, but because of an issue with how the icons are assigned, you will have to manually assign these icons for every app on your phone. There might be some exact matches in there (e.x. apps like Phone, Minecraft, YouTube, and Spotify), but there’s also a chance that some apps (especially games) won’t have an exact match, so you will have to find a similar match (e.x. apps with this issue include YT Studio, ibisPaint, and Bluesky). Once done, exit the menu and and click the download icon near the same 3 dots icon. Click it, give your iconpack a beautiful name, and then apply it.

Nova Launcher (non-Samsung)

In the Nova Launcher, open the app drawer and then open your Nova Settings (or something similar). Use the search feature to find the settings for grids, and set it to the aforementioned values. Remember that APK I made you download earlier? Install it. You’ll need it. Once that Multi Layout Theme is installed, go back to the app drawer. Unfortunately, to set the app icons, you will need to long press on each app and choose the appropriate icon from the S4 icon pack. Just repeat the process until every app has an S4 icon.

Step 4: Layout

Now, for your actual home screen. This is probably one of the most important parts to make your phone look like an S4. Nova or Samsung, long press on the home screen, and add the clock weather widget, at the very top. Then, under the clock/weather widget, place a Google Search widget that stretches across the screen. Under that, in order (from left to right), place Email, then Calendar, then Camera, and finally, the Play Store. Now, on the quick access bar at the bottom or whatever it is called, in order, place Call, then Contacts, then Messaging, then Internet (app of your choice, but for authenticity, I went with Samsung Internet), and at the end, the App drawer icon.

 

Your transformation should now be done! Congratulations, your phone now looks like an S4! Anyways, for more cool tech and programming stuff, make sure to tune in the the CheeseBlog. Cya!

Modded Discord clients are epic

We all know what Discord is, but I want to talk about the modded clients. There’s so many of them. Wait, did you say you don’t know what Discord is? Seriously? Fine, I’ll explain.

What’s Discord?

Most of you probably know what Discord is, so if you do, skip past this section. If you don’t, stay. Discord is a multi-platform rich messaging app. Many of its features include servers (like a group chat but it allows more people and there’s multiple of these things called channels that are usually used for categorizing chats and media), group chats, profile customization, markdown and multimedia support, etc. If you wish to read more on it, just check out its homepage here or read the Wikipedia page here.

Modded clients? What?

Yes, modded clients. This can range from modified desktop clients to modified web clients all the way to modded mobile clients. These modded clients add features to Discord that make it more useful or stylish. In this post is essentially just going over a few and what makes them special.

Okay here’s the list

Vencord/Vesktop

Vencord is one of the most used clients for Discord when it comes non-vanilla ones. It features a large variety of themes, which can be used to style Discord in ways that aren’t the basic dark and light themes and forgotten Nitro themes. It also has a wide range of plugins, which are used to extend functionality past what Discord officially offers and what Vencord adds. There isn’t really much special about Vencord aside from its popularity and large range of plugins and themes to use. Oh, and if you were wondering what Vesktop is, it is just a more optimized version of Discord with Vencord pre-injected, because otherwise you would have to install the normal Discord executable, install it, and then inject Vencord. You can check the GitHub link here.

Aerochat

Aerochat is just normal Discord, but with a twist. It looks nearly identical to Windows Live Messenger 2009 (also known as MSN Messenger). It has support for normal DMs, group chats, and even servers. It is still in development, though, and many features in normal Discord are missing because this client is being built from the ground up and is not based on the official Electron app Discord released. For the code, you can, once again, check the GitHub here.

BetterDiscord

BetterDiscord is one of the older Discord mods. It is very similar to Vencord, except that it is more popular, older, and doesn’t have cats everywhere. It supports both Windows and OS X. Otherwise, it is a very cool project, like all of these. For code, installation, and more, check the GitHub.

Conclusion

All of these clients are great clients, but they aren’t the only options. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this blog post. Don’t forget to tune in to the CheeseBlog for another post. Cya!

Massive PrizVideo Update!

I know that despite what I said in my original post, this blog hasn’t really been a place for updates on PrizVideo. But guess what? This entire post is about it! Let’s dive head first into this topic.

Recap/What is PrizVideo?

If you somehow stumbled upon this blog without knowledge of PrizVideo, here’s the summary: PrizVideo is an open-source, ad-free, privacy based video broadcasting platform. It aims to have a user-centered experience. That means none of the annoyances, such as ads or annoying popups. However, it aims to do more than that. It also promises for there to be NO third party trackers or selling your data. The data is does collect is only used for your feed and a rough estimate of popular topics or the amount of users on PrizVideo. Did I mention it is open source? You can find the GitHub and website links here:

https://github.com/PrizVideo

https://prizvideo.github.io

Okay, now lets talk about what I actually mean to talk about.

What is this so called “massive update”?

Okay, maybe it isn’t a massive update, maybe I was just using that wording for people to read my newest blog post (although you are welcome to read my older ones by all means, I preserve the content I make). The new update features even more enhanced security, various bug fixes, and now, PERSISTENT LOGINS! I know it doesn’t seem like a lot, but everything here is a step in a journey, and I want everyone reading this to be a step in that journey.

And why should I care?

I believe that anyone who reads my blog is either someone I know or I work with, someone related to me, somebody I shared the link to, or the most unlikely one, someone who found my blog through a search engine. And do you want to know why I doubt that? I doubt that because I have tried to find my blog through Google, Brave Search, DuckDuckGo, even Yahoo, but it was to no avail. Anyways, backstory aside, I hope you enjoyed this blog post, comment if you like blogs more centered around this style, and make sure to tune in to the CheeseBlog for another post. Cya!

Why Windows 7 is better than newer Windows versions

Hi, everyone. I know I’ve slowly been posting less and less, but that’s just because of a bad schedule. But now, I’m back. I’m back and I can give you all a new post. I hope you all enjoy it, and let’s get right in to it.

UI

Windows 7 is known for having simplistic but good  UI. People have adored the Aero aesthetic. The Aero aesthetic is even starting to return because people love it so much. It has an intuitive ribbon UI seen all across the operating system. It also has the traditional start menu, something Windows 8 and 8.1 cannot say. The UI is quick and snappy, which brings us to the next section.

Speed

Windows 7 is incredibly quick and snappy. Even on bad hardware, it still manages to pull through and do most tasks fairly quickly. On good hardware, it can pass the test of speed with flying colors. It loads IE, explorer, and most common apps well, which makes sense, as they are mostly simple apps, but for daily use, it’s good. The speed could be because of a lack of clutter, which I’m going to bring up soon.

Clutter

Windows 7 and clutter should not be in the same sentence. It only has the absolutely necessary apps, such as a calculator, a word pad (a rich note and documents app, kind of like a Lite version of MS Word), a web browser, a widget app, etc. If you ever feel something is missing or needed, just download it online! New web browser? Find it with IE. Want a game or two? Just go and download Steam, or go to itch.io for web games or free download games. An upside of having no clutter is a big bump in speed. However, if you want to declutter on Windows 10, 11, or even 8, you have to forcibly go through a complicated process to get rid of a few bloatware apps.

Overview

Windows 7 may seem to be out of date by many people now, but that does not deny any of the points I have made. In my opinion, it is arguably one of the best Windows operating systems to this day, and many people would agree with me. Most of the points made in this post cannot be applied to Windows 8, 10, or 11, which is honestly such a shame, similarly to how it is sad that not that many apps support Windows 7 anymore. I hope you all enjoyed this blog post, but for more like this, make sure you tune in to the CheeseBlog soon for another post. Cya!

Note: This entire blog post was made with Windows Live Writer, tell me if anything is off about the post’s styling, this way of creating posts is simple and quick, so I prefer it. Anyways, bye

Is AI coding an issue?

AI tools like GitHub Copilot and TabNine are revolutionizing coding. They can autocomplete entire functions, suggest logic, and even help debug.

But is this good or bad for developers?

  • Pro: Speed and efficiency. AI reduces repetitive tasks and makes coding accessible to beginners.
  • Con: Over-reliance on AI could mean less understanding of the codebase and a loss of foundational skills.


As a developer, I’ve tested Copilot, and while it’s helpful, I see it more as an assistant than a replacement. It’s a tool—not a crutch. What’s your take on this growing trend?

That’s all for now! Don’t forget to check out the CheeseBlog for more tech trends and insights. Cya!

Why JS frameworks are awesome

JavaScript frameworks have come a long way, transforming how we build web applications. But with so many options—React, Vue, Angular—it can feel overwhelming.


Here’s a quick breakdown:

  • React: Great for component-based architectures. Ideal if you’re looking for flexibility and a massive community.
  • Vue: Lightweight and approachable, perfect for small-to-medium projects without the steep learning curve.
  • Angular: A full-blown framework, best suited for large-scale applications requiring structure and robust features.



For developers, picking the right framework depends on the project’s needs. Personally, I lean toward Vue for its simplicity, but I’d love to hear what you’re using!

That’s it for today! Make sure to tune in to the CheeseBlog for more programming insights and tech updates. Cya!


A collection of fun facts not long enough to make an entire post

Some of these are short, some are long, none of them should actually matter to you—but they all are interesting and weird enough when togeth...
