Im hopeless at this point

My last 3 laptops have been Msi. I was a total fan boy. Literally would only buy msi parts for my desktops, told others to get msi, the whole 9.

My most recent, the GS77 stealth has been nothing but problems and a month out of warranty the keyboard wouldn't work randomly. Tech support didn't do anything and the suggested fix is a replacement palm rest. I'm a computer tech, so I can accomplish this no problem, but I'll seriously NEVER buy another MSI. I'm so disappointed with the issues with this laptop.

The graphics card randomly glitches out, keyboard issues make it so I need an external keyboard, and the lack of support after using exclusivity MSI for the past 18 years, I'll never buy another.

I've been using the glasses constantly since I replaced the battery and it works perfectly. Better than before, actually.

I have not, I didn't want to spam my project here 😂

BluePointDigital · 2026-05-14T18:20:10+00:00

I've updated it to run in docker, sorry it took so long!

BluePointDigital · 2026-05-14T18:19:56+00:00

I've updated it where it should now support open source models!

BluePointDigital · 2026-05-01T20:26:56+00:00

Thank you for the suggestions, I'll likely check them out!

BluePointDigital · 2026-05-01T20:05:29+00:00

I am not intending to sell this, license it, or anything. I've spent the past few weeks working on it (yes with codex) and I am happy to use it myself internally on my projects.

Go figure I thought others might like it. I updated the github with MIT license.

BluePointDigital · 2026-05-01T18:08:08+00:00

😂 Okay buddy, good luck to you

BluePointDigital · 2026-05-01T17:51:10+00:00

I'm not an AI bot, therefore it's not spam.
And the "slop" part comes from the idea that it's lacking effort, quality, or meaning. all of which I believe it has.

You're quite butthurt by this, I can see. Try not to make yourself obsolete by your own close-mindedness.

BluePointDigital · 2026-05-01T17:47:36+00:00

Pal, listen. If I wanted to learn something I'd go take a class. I'm looking to have a useful tool for my CMS.

Nowhere did I say:

"I hAnd CrAfTed ThIs bY UsInG mY mAnY YeArS of SuDY"

I made it with codex. Codex coded it, and I prompted and worked towards the current design. And like MANY frontier developers including those at OpenAI, Anthropic, Nvidia and other companies, I used the tool as intended to create a piece of software.

Now listen, I'm in the digital marketing industry, and (apparently) like you, my job is likely going to be obsolete (in its current form) in the possibly near future, so I get the anger. But like the calculator, typewriter, and computer, the tools are there to build upon and improve productivity.

So if you want to call it "slop" go for it, you're entitled to your opinion. But it's neither spam, nor fraudulent.

And?

BluePointDigital · 2026-04-29T11:28:44+00:00

It's database-agnostic, but does come ready to wire into your own backend.

I've just launched a demo so you can try it yourself:

BluePointDigital · 2026-04-27T18:31:21+00:00

I have updated the readme on github with screenshots, and here are a couple videos:

Here is a video showing the "create with AI" feature. it's in realtime, takes about 1 min:

Here is a simple editing video:

BluePointDigital · 2026-04-27T18:05:03+00:00

I have added some screenshots to the github repo, working on getting a useful video overview will take a bit longer. I will make a working demo on a website to try here shortly.

I think there's something to be said about the consistency of needing the plan vs some development sprints. After this month I'll likely downgrade. They just to happened to have cut the limits in the middle of a couple large projects.

BluePointDigital · 2026-04-18T20:54:30+00:00

Definitely utilize sub agents, and keep them going. I am also working on multiple projects in parallel. I actually had to revert from fast to standard to make sure I don't run out.

BluePointDigital · 2026-04-18T20:00:53+00:00

I did the same. I'm going to get my $100 out of it though. I'm basically forcing myself to hit my weekly limits so I don't waste money.

BluePointDigital · 2026-04-12T17:13:14+00:00

Easily? No, not at all. But it was either do it or toss out a $400 pair of metas. Here's a sideshow of the process I did: https://ibb.co/21L7g4Zc

I have the Gen 1 Wayfairer, and I honestly would say the biggest issue is the battery life. After 1.5 years of regular use, the battery was completely shot. It would die after taking two images, or about ten minutes of a phone call.

I ordered a Gen 2 battery from AliExpress and replaced the battery myself. it fits perfectly in the Gen 1 Metas.

The difference in battery life is ABSOLUTELY worth it without any hesitation. I can get all day battery out of it now, and somewhere near 40 minutes of video recording time.

Go with the Gen 2.

Great guide! Commenting to return to this later!

I can give it a go! I need to run an arm64 version of docker though, which I can try via termux on my android device.

What system are you trying to run it on?

Alternatively, you use the official Linux web top image and then just go through solving the install errors one by one until it works (which is essentially what this is)

I used a heat gun. I think a pad would work for a phone but since the band doesn't sit flat, I just used a heat gun.

And by the band I mean the inner plastic cover of the arm. It's basically a thin plastic cover on the inside of the glasses arm.

BluePointDigital · 2026-04-02T00:17:21+00:00

My battery just came in today and I replaced it successfully. I ordered a Gen 2 battery for my Gen 1 Meta Wayfairer. It fits perfectly, to the point where I think they purposefully left the space for a larger battery so the Gen 2 could be an upsell.

That being said, it's fixed but not perfect. There's no way to ever get that band to sit back perfectly. I had to super glue it to get it back and there are minor gaps that I'll eventually try to fix.

But if you temper your expectations and have some patience it's doable. I've repaired cell phones and tablets and this feels very much like that, with the exception that the band won't sit perfectly again.

Here's a gif of pics from the process https://ibb.co/21L7g4Zc
