Oh, so that's what the box was about. I use both Mac and Windows (Work / Leisure) and in both boxes I had a weird dialog appearing with no text at all in either. I can confirm the dark pattern switch (As in dark grey / light

"...in API" That's a VERY relevant clarification. this DOESN'T apply to web or app users. Basically, if you want a 1M context window you have to specifically pay for it.

wow. I've been entertaining this idea for some time now (Emphasis on "entertaining"). Seeing that already somebody has actually made this makes me very happy. Will definitely give it a go.

I don't have that problem ("I work with computers / I am a computer programmer") but I usually follow with "I'm a race driver. I drive the car as fast as I can, I don't change the tires nor the oil in it&q

Well, have you ever heard of the Mitsubishi Pajero? [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitsubishi_Pajero

An interesting exercise here would be to make the MCP server show the actual state in a window and return to Claude just the json payload with the status.

By just looking at the README from the repo (Would look more deeply into this later) you're replying with an image of the current status? If you expect Claude to interpret the image corretly may be you're asking for too much. Besi

Most video games allow for configuring brightness right at the start. My impression is that they were more interested in showing the improvements than being faithful to the original atmosphere.

Note: the intention of this comment is just to be informative. I did a quick search in my country's Mercado Libre (the local Amazon, we could say) and the cheapest available one, Fnirsi-138 Pro [1] goes for a price of aprox. 50 USD [2]

I had heard about this some years ago, and I taught my youngest daughter (11yo now) to ride a bike this way. Granted, it didn't happen in 1 day because she didn't have a bike when she started "riding" (We got her first a

Thank you for this. I'm not an advanced user but I do use some advanced features, and having to fight the OS in order for it to make what I want is not in my list of desirable "features". Will delay this update as long as pos

That it's stand alone. I know you can have a window with just that page and stuff, but then you have a system wide shortcut to ask things (that combined with MacWhisper is magic) plus the conversational capabilities.
