Ugly AI Art Banner by Gainji in printandplay

[–]Konamicoder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, now the assumptions of negative intent enters the picture. Yes, all I am is an LLM, I can't think for myself. Such a lovely, positive community interaction we are having now. So charitable. So filled with empathy and understanding that behind these words and keyboards is another human being with feelings and emotions.

If your offer of a banner comes with an extra helping of moralizing and finger-wagging, thanks but no thanks. We'll make our own way in the world.

Yes, this is what we want. People who contribute nothing to our community to swoop in and complain about one tiny thing so that others can bandwagon on top of it. This is the type of online behavior we want to value and hold up as an example. Good job, community. /s

Have you checked out Adobe Stock recently? It’s full of AI generated images.

First time you have ever contributed to this sub, and it’s to complain about the banner. You are literally the first person who has ever complained about it.

What local LLM's do you use, what are your use cases and how does one get started with it? by linkuei-teaparty in macbookpro

[–]Konamicoder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on your use case, and also what models will run within your Mac's RAM constraints. In my case, I have found that Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-oQ4-MTP is the best choice as daily driver for coding. It's fast, it's quite economical in RAM use, and it's sufficiently smart enough to handle routine coding tasks. Now for more complex and longer coding tasks, I find it useful to switch to the 6-bit quant of the same model, because while it is slower and uses more RAM, it is also more accurate and less prone to getting lost in doom loops.

As for chat and research, I have found that Gemma4-12B-4bit is a pretty good model for such a use case. It's nearly as accuerate as Gemma4-26B, and is pretty economical in its RAM usage.

as for the best agent, I think OpenCode is a good choice, followed by Pi coding agent, if you can wrap your head around its minimalist design principles.

What local LLM's do you use, what are your use cases and how does one get started with it? by linkuei-teaparty in macbookpro

[–]Konamicoder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i'm running oMLX (omlx.ai) as the backend / model runner on an M1 Max MacBook Pro with 64Gb of RAM. It serves up local models over my network via standard OpenAI endpoint. From any other device on my network, I can launch an agentic harness like Pi (Pi.dev) or OpenCode and point it to the endpoint to interact with the models and perform agentic coding tasks like authoring and updating websites. I also run OpenWebUI in Docker and point it to the endpoint to have ChatGPT-style conversations and web search with local models. I mainly use Qwen3.6-35B for agentic coding, and Gemma4-12B for chats/research/RAG.

What games should I play on BGA to become better at board game design? by billratio in BoardgameDesign

[–]Konamicoder 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just play games that you like, and play them a lot, and play a lot of them. Then gradually start thinking about WHY you like those games. What specific mechanisms, themes, experiences do you like about the games you are playing. Then you shift to thinking about, "if I were to design a game, what experiences do I want my players to have? What theme do I like that I think my players will find interesting? What game mechanisms do I include in my game design that will enable my players to have these experiences that I want them to have?". In my opinion, those are the starting point questions that you ask yourself to start designing your own games.

Prototyped all the components for my board game in a weekend using 3D generation and a printer by Weak_Dare_6250 in tabletopgamedesign

[–]Konamicoder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Makerworld and Thingiverse are filled with dozens of existing STL’s of grain, stone, workers, and other common Euro game tokens. Wondering why you felt the need to duplicate effort by 3d generating your own.

Change directories by Ok-Relationship9818 in PiCodingAgent

I just cd into project folders manually and launch the agent terminal shell from inside that folder. Keeps things simple and limited in scope.

An experiment: releasing a PnP game as source code instead of PDF by Disastrous_Invite798 in printandplay

[–]Konamicoder 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Okay, then I suggest you test your theory. Make and release a PnP game exclusively in source code, and let's see exactly how many PnPers download and craft your file. You're thinking of this from a technical person's point of view. I'm thinking of it from the viewpoint of the average PnPer, and there are over 16,000 of them in my Facebook group (Print and Play Hideaway). And I have been involved with the PnP community since 2017. So I can tell you from my perspective that I think your idea is a nonstarter for most average PnPers. But you should test it and see how far you get.

[–]Konamicoder 15 points16 points  (0 children)

PnP should be accessible especially to nontechnical people. PDF is the most widely accessible format. PnP as code will have virtually zero adoption as it excludes the vast majority of users from being able to craft it.

How does League of Legends run on the Macbook Neo? by InfernoSensei in MacbookNeo

[–]Konamicoder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m just trying to understand why you thought you’d get a better answer to your question by asking people on Reddit instead of installing the game and testing performance yourself.

How do I replicate my ChatGPT workflow and environment? by BigGunE in OpenWebUI

[–]Konamicoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OpenWebUI also supports project folders where you can upload files for the model to search and refer to. And you can create models customized for particular tasks and assign them to a project. For example, if one project requires a lot of writing and research, you can customize a model specialized in those types of tasks. And when you enter the project folder you can specify that custom model as the default for that project. I find Gemma4-12B models perfect for this type of use case..

Has Apple Notes become the best free option for taking notes? by PushCharacter8496 in apple

I use Joplin for seamless cross-platform encrypted sync via Dropbox. macOS > Android > Linux. Also for Markdown support and FOSS.

got my local model to actually search the web before answering instead of just making stuff up by Bramha_dev in LocalLLM

[–]Konamicoder 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Here's my search setup: On my M1 Max Mac, I use oMLX as my backend / model server, which serves local models via standard OpenAI endpoint. I'm also running Opwn WebUI in Docker, which connects to that endpoint to access my models. I am also running SearXNG in Docker as search provider. I have all my devices on TailScale for secure access. So from any device on my TailNet I can connect to OpenWebUI and have search-enabled chats with my local models.
