I had a mild addiction to this game about 7 or so years ago. Purely casual but lots of hours. I found it sort of a stress relief. On the upside it gave me all sorts of free items as in-game 'drops'. I ignored them all at the time

Can you pick thinking models with this or is that implied? GPT-5 seems a bit slow so far (in terms of deciding and awareness). I’ve gone from waiting for a compiler, to waiting for assets to build to now waiting for an agent to decide what

Yeah, DLSS looks great outside the window and for people enjoying GA and VFR it's all good. For airliners with digital displays it is harder to use, as like you said it blurs. They did talk about using some form of stencil/exclusi

For me most of the performance issues with MSFS24 are now being VRAM limited. When they went to MSFS 2024 they rewrote for DX12 and while doing that upgraded a few things to look nicer. The texture management still seems to need some work.

A nice addition (unless I missed it) would be to add an existing API key for remote model access?

Interesting stuff. Unsure about the Phlex approach but could be worth a go. Didn't have any luck with the Date Picker component demo page (no pop up or validation?), and that's my usual go-to for seeing how these libraries are doi

Super interested in this when the eye tracking is available but need some reviews for that first. For sit-down VR the price isn't really an issue for this, given how the GPU market is now anyway. It is a niche product for sure. Foveate

It would have been nice if the Completions use of the internal web-search tool wasn't always mandatory and could be set to 'auto'. Would save a lot of reworking just to go the new Responses API format just for that use case.

One side effect that I don't think I like of these tools is the inevitable push for developers to just use the most popular languages. Javascript and python are the main LLM trained languages, so it just self reenforces that it is best

I tried this and couldn't get it to work on a Rail 7.1 Ruby 3.2, no output. The readme.md could do with some examples of what sort of recommendations come out. Edit: it outputs metric, just no recommendations so moving on.

White Lighting was really a sprite editor packaged with an interrupt driven DSL for games, but back before DSL was a term. Forth was a good choice for a compiled target on the platforms back then, given the constraints. Ironically I do ruby

Some smaller ones, but nothing big. There was a user submission contest that got some traction, but the jump up from BASIC to using this was not easy. This was the time of 'rock star game devs' but interrupts, memory paging and sp

Yep, the tape to tape copying days were really happening around 1984 so the manual in either red or green paper was the only way to keep it selling. The sprite library package and Forth's closeness to machine code were its strengths. N

My first 'job' as a kid was working at Oasis Software on White Lightning, which was a Forth based game making kit for the ZX Spectrum (amongst other platforms). About a million years ago now. Or now ago million, if you know Forth.

The official deprecation was made in Dec 2023. Removing it in the next feature update is too soon. Lots of people still having working WMR units, so this feels super cheap.

This seems to work ok on a 3080Ti, even under WSL2. Nice! For larger files I'm getting errors for maximum token + prompt length - is there an easy way to tweak these limits for the client? I think the Copilot client needed some overrid

During the early access / beta period one of the keys might be for X-Plane 11. I think that's the deal.
