I used PictureThis almost daily as a gardening tool, but as soon as ChatGPT accepted photo inputs I cancelled it and now just send pictures to ChatGPT with a prepared prompt asking it to ID the plant and give me details on its care and heal

Just completed the whole game in iPhone/Safari. Was very difficult but very fun. I’m a big fan of mini games like this, and I was always a huge fan of Lunar Lander etc which this game reminds me of. Great polish for a web game too. I m

This is brilliant. I’ve been tempted to get my Macintosh SE online just for fun and this would be a great use for it. Permanent little IRC terminal.

I love weird digital cameras and have a collection of them. For me personally they’re the equivalent of how some people nerd out over old film cameras or different types of film. I absolutely love the early 00s aesthetic that the crappy cam

Yup, we tried scraping IMDB for dates too to compare which method was easiest/best and it was spot on (and easier!). I guess the release dates are mentioned enough around the web that it has enough reference. It does use the US release

I did a similar thing with ChatGPT-4o giving it a txt file list of movie names, and it returned the release date of each one, then gave me an iCal file of all those movies with their release dates as recurring yearly anniversary events so I

I miss skinning so much. I was hugely into the scene of making/releasing skins for any/every program that included the ability (and a bunch that didn’t, thanks to unsigned applications). To this day I’m the type to customise every

“Most people” (and still talking tech crowd) are still figuring out what these very early version of AI can do, what they’re good at, what they’re not good at, etc. Most non-tech people think AI is no different to “algorithms” and is just a

I still own multiple nanos with the watch bands and the kids love playing with them as a ”more kid-safe Apple Watch”. Even after all these years they’re still immaculate and work great. More than can be said by lots of other more recent tec

I’ve been back on IRC over the last year or 2 and been enjoying it. It’s obviously not as wildly active as it used to be, but you still find very smart people to answer questions and/or chat about random stuff, and most of the big open

Piper is great, but nowhere near the quality of the OpenAI TTS voices. I'd find Piper too jarring for audio books because of the big quality difference, but I actually prefer it for things like AI assistants as I don't necessarily

I very regularly (every week or so) go to my YT history and delete any random isolated videos that I watched that don’t suit my general interests. Keeps the recommendations relevant to the majority average of what I choose to watch.

How accurately can they really de-orbit such a colossal object with so many parts that are bound to break off? Is this a “it’s fine, they can model it so well that they’ll target a couple hundred square kilometres in the middle of the ocean

IT was probably one of the most influential pieces of software for me as a teenager. I can’t put into words how important it was to me as a way to escape a crappy life and just get lost in making music and sharing tracks on my local BBS, ch

Just like Reddit, you’d have users using AI to generate fake posts to farm karma. User generated content in general these days is completely poisoned.

It's really cool how people are taking these tiny cheap MCUs and making them do fun things for hobbyists. There's nothing better than a project with zero real-world use-case but that's done just because it was a challenge. Eg

You can’t even pick a voice that isn’t American. Every single option is “over-enthusiastic Californian”. Even Apple gives us options of other accents to make it less jarring, and to me they’re the pinnacle of that voice style in tech presen

I don’t expect Flickr to update users via a series of photos of text documents. They’re a micro-blogging service using the correct format for a long-form text update.
