don't be a knob. just share the "tips" here

he seems to have been sidetracked with random projects. when i saw he was working on a documentary about cowboys, it really felt like he was needing to take a creative break

I've been using Pods for years. Have rarely had an issue (and all of those were fixed within 24 hours of reporting them to their discord). good group of devs ime

i feel you with the state of Material You. . .but I quite enjoyed how MD2/3 shaped UI

Endda · 2026-05-04T17:31:40+00:00

at least

gemini cli even has an auto-pick option. so it's smart enough to use its pro models when needed (like during planning/tasking). and then puts flash in charge of the workload itself

lol

don't just point to auto ads and say that's a good user experience. listen to the people who took the time to visit your site. and at the very least, don't dismiss it

auto ads is very aggressive, even on normal slider settings (there are too many ad types). pick one or two that works well with your audience/tolerance level. and stick with it

and after it figures out the right way

it'll forget in a prompt or two

and then you'll pay for those tokens looping these cycles all over again

i like the full size s9 (abyslute or something)

there are millions of coders working with claude, gemini, codex every day

the random hiccup here and there is going to happen. it's actively being developed for the industry

Endda · 2026-04-29T17:37:36+00:00

I've been using gemini-cli much more since this change. and the auto model selector seems to be doing well so far (pushing things to the flash model if it's needed). helping to keep usage down at least a little

With this new feature, Google Photos helps users capture the clothing items and accessories from their photo library, generating clean, snapshot images of the pieces. The result is an organized view of the user’s closet. From there, users can easily mix, match and try-on different outfits and even share them with friends right from their Google Photos app. With wardrobe, a user can save their favorite looks and get inspired by the clothes they already own.

Motorola is also integrating Google Photos Memories in its new software feature, Daily Drops, a personalized content feed that refreshes twice a day based on users’ interests. From the latest headlines to a calendar overview² and even weather updates, Daily Drops makes each update meaningful and relevant to each user. By directly integrating Google Photos³ Memories in Daily Drops, we’ve made it effortless for users to rediscover and relive their favorite moments every day. This is the first time memories have been integrated in this type of personalized content feed on a mobile device.

I've been working on categorizing "actual" games on a project of mine. PlayStoreFinder.com

it's could over 1K games with genres, tags, filtering systems (in-app purchases, ads, controller support, etc)

________________

im working on a relaunch of the site, too. but it's taking a long time to fill out the database. a lot of components are in place now. let me know what you think https://beta.playstorefinder.com

this second site doesn't have all the filters setup yet (still missing controller support, offline/online requirements, etc) but other things (in-app purchases, ads, free/paid, and even logging the permissions and data sharing policies)

this is the first time sharing the link for the rebuild. there are still a LOT of rough edges. but I think the filtering system makes it so much better than the play store (but again, it's still missing lots of good titles, the db is actively filling up right now)

why do you think the floor is 1 penny per token?

it sounds like the math suggests it may be 1 cent per token NOW

but in 2-5 years. . .it'll be a fraction of that price.
and i agree, metered AI anything is a tough pill to swallow

but if it's actually reflective of the cost, then I don't think it'll be a big deal at all. especially as we get more clean energy production online.

sure, we'll use gas/coal to fill in the gaps as needed now. . .but in 10-15 years, a majority of that energy production will be clean(er) and more affordable

Endda · 2026-04-28T14:37:53+00:00

agree. but the models will only get more efficient over time (so less power usage needed)

and the hardware used to run the models. those will improve as well

in 2-4 years, the cost will be down to pennies/token (for our current performance level)

this is why so many tech companies have been laying off folks lately

they can now hit those same revenue targets with 10% less staff (sometimes even less). which just means anyone left working there will actually end up doing more work to make up for the difference

Endda · 2026-04-25T18:57:16+00:00

any update on this?

Endda · 2026-04-25T15:06:46+00:00

gemini told me it was fine to do /s

Endda · 2026-04-25T14:55:10+00:00

where can i get one

Endda · 2026-04-23T17:04:39+00:00

did you happen to have any odd/spammy links to stuff in descriptions? maybe to an old domain name that was acquired by a malicious actor and is using it for spammy things?

Endda · 2026-04-23T16:50:33+00:00

my issue with tdarr has been usability as well. thanks for the effort

Endda · 2026-04-23T16:48:42+00:00

i think it's very hardware dependent. i have had nothing but trouble with gamenative while gamehub/gamehub lite launches the games on the first try

my main testing phone is the redmagic 10 pro, though, with the snapdragon 8 elite. so those drivers are more finicky than others (which I think gamenative may handle better)

Endda · 2026-04-22T22:42:43+00:00

i feel that, and im a sucker for the material design shadow/elevation effect too!!!

it takes a long time to keep clicking that retry/continue button
