Who would have thought, the new ChatGPT o1 is actually writing usable code. Still stupid of course, but way way better than before. https://openai.com/index/introducing-openai-o1-preview/

Actually, it's still really bad, at least for writing Flutter code. At first, I thought it saved me 2 hours of writing the code myself, but then I had to spend 2 hours improving the bad code it produced.

GM nostr. Who is excited for the Apple Keynote today? Not in the market for new hardware right now, but can’t wait to see the new iOS and macOS. Hopefully some of the AI tools will be available in Europe, it was rumored that they might be on macOS and only iOS will be left out due to regulations.

I’m not much of a mobile gamer but I tried again recently to find just a single playable game and I couldn’t find anything. Why are mobile games so much worse and degenerate than PC and console ga...

There are a few good ones, all PC game ports, but for the most part, the only way to play good games on mobile is through emulators. I have a Steam Deck, so I don't do that on phones or tablets for the most part, but I do like using ScummVM for old point & click adventures on mobile, it's even available for iPad.
