I am still surprised that this made it into the zine. Maybe it wasn't as obvious "back then", but my god that is so clearly - and badly - written with AI.

I really like the idea of this!

How hard would it be to combine the power of a couple phones for a server? I'm sure someone has done something like that already, right?

Earlier I got an email from Substack telling me to check out my stats for my bewest blog post.

It has 2 views, lol.

I just post it all to blog.ciefas.cafe now, I have no audience so I feel like Substack is useless to me.

Eh, that is if they pay. Trump already made threats for tariffs in regards to those fines.

Try GPT 5.6 Sol if you haven't yet.

I recently created a patch for Riftborne via static IL patching and Fable 5 outright kept refusing to do it, no issue whatsoever with GPT 5.6 Sol lol.

Fable 5 is included for 50% of the limits in Max. Only below Max one has to use credits.

Why the dark pattern?

You had my interest, now not anymore.

Yep, same. I hate these dark patterns so much and I genuinely couldn't care less about this product anymore :D

That is wild lol. I used to play GTA:SA a lot, especially online, through GTA:SA-MP and was always amazed at what modders managed to get out of this game.

I still see in the menu to select the model in the GUI (Claude Desktop, claude.ai etc).
