I use remote-control every day and haven't had many issues with it, aside from the fact that the mobile app being pretty limited, e.g there are no prompt suggestions like slash commands and skills, everything in the textbox is just a raw string. You also can’t start a new session directly from the app (have to SSH into the host manually to do that)

Other than those limitations, the connection has been very stable for me, definitely more reliable than alternatives like happy.engineering or Omnara. What’s been buggy for you specifically?

Or they are just a bot.

> Maybe since they don't know how to pass a webpage in parameter for every browser in the wild, I suppose they limited it to Safari.

Yeah this is ridiculous, how on earth was that answer accepted?

It has been like that right from the start. It amazes me that you put up with it for a whooping 12 years before deciding you've had enough.

Why does the app store not allow clicking the screenshots to enlarge them? It's annoying such basic feature is not there.

What? The cinematics are absolutely incredible. Would definitely pay to watch a full Diablo movie.

Yes, I mostly use ChatGPT for ffmpeg commands. Just give it the description along with the full file path and it will output the correct command 99% of the time. Bard can also do that (not as well though) but the format of the answer is so much worse, the resulting command is not put in a code block for example.

Siri is just terrible.

From the provided example:

Q: How would I make for loop in python?

A: I can help you create an AI chat bot. It would talk to you like a human. (additional text that is not relevant to the prompt)

It is just me or this does not seem right?

Except that this has nothing to do with being "unsafe".

OP used his private key/mnemonics somewhere else and that's equivalent to giving your bank account + password to other people and then complaining when they take your money.

What's interesting about that comment? Isn't that basically how blockchain works?

What's so special about SwiftUI compared to e.g Flutter/Jetpack Compose that I see posts about it frequently on the front page?

Thank you, but I wish we could manually select it and copy the desired part (for example when converting days to seconds I'm only concern about the actual seconds, not the "seconds" suffix)

Thanks, it works great, but I found it better to have 2 sides: expressions on the left and results on the right. Maybe I'm already too familiar with Numi, lol.

This is great, but I can't seem to copy the result. Is it just me?

Will there be a public post mortem?
