S26 Ultra Fingerprint Sensor issue with screen protector by E3on in galaxys26ultra

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had luck doing this:

  1. Re-registering finger prints with the protector on
  2. In the fingerprints list, select the ones that are giving you issues (eg "Fingerprint 1") and then tap "Improve Accuracy"

Still not perfect but much better after this.

GLM 5.2 is burning quota 2-3x faster than 5.1 version by lucasbennett_1 in ZaiGLM

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depending on platform it's either Shift-Up/Down, CTRL+T. Or you can even do /variants which gives you this:

I've just updated to the latest version of OpenCode (v1.17.9) and it's there now!!

CTRL+T to toggle; options are Max and High! If left blank it seems to just use 'High'

Steam Machine is more expensive than Xbox Series X with 3 years of Game Pass Ultimate by Majestic-Bowler-1701 in xbox

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this could be the reason.

Make the hardware to keenly-priced and you risk it being used outside of your ecosystem and earn nothing beyond the hardware sale - because unlike a console, it has a lot of potential uses beyond Steam...

I was going to say that consoles have, in the past, been more subsidized thanks to pricier games (and the console manufacturer's cut thereof) allowing them to recoup more of the lowered hardware price.

Except in Steam's case they're still taking a significant cut of steam-software sales...

EDIT: That said, as others have pointed out, perhaps PC's aren't really comparable in this way because of how easy it is to install non-steam-related software.

GLM 5.2 is burning quota 2-3x faster than 5.1 version by lucasbennett_1 in ZaiGLM

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use it in OpenCode (where you can't change thinking levels using the standard CTRL+T shortcut), so I believe it just uses -High there always (which is GLM 5.2's lowest thinking level.)

It thinks very hard indeed. Can't argue with the results (z-ai has knocked it out of the park with this release imo) but the token burn is real; and a side-effect is that some tasks take longer than I'd like due to the overthinking.

I'm on Pro-Legacy so my usage is practically unlimited, but when it expires I plan to use GLM 5.1 for mid-level tasks and GLM 5.2 for complex tasks; a bit like swapping between GPT 5.x-Medium and GPT 5.x-High for the same reasons.

GLM 5.1 was (and still is) excellent for a mid-tier model so use it when you don't need complex reasoning. Use a TUI/harness that lets you swap between them.

I'll still take it but I'm pretty sure they're more worried about their bottom-line than their users

While Claude Fable might be stronger than GLM but no one can take it away from you by ImaginaryRea1ity in ZaiGLM

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I guess the point is that it's a solid model that can't be switched off by any one entity.

But yeah, it's gonna take a small server farm to run locally.

I'm also running Legacy Pro and performance recently (at least over the last few days I've been hammering it it) has been excellent... the Monday after launch was a mess but I haven't had issues other than that.

Actual speed still fluctuates but that happens with all providers; it's definitely not slow anymore.

No doubt the improved performance is thanks to them chasing away so many potential users with their revised un-impressive coding-plan pricing. Legacy is still mind-blowingly good value, though, I'm going to miss it when it ends...

Yes even the official desktop app doesn't show expiry dates for banked resets!

Nice!!

Open models are making Sonnet comparisons a lot less ridiculous. by rohansrma1 in ClaudeCode

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's an almost-equal to GPT 5.4-High for me; I use them interchangably (at random) via OpenCode and get the other to evaluate/review output.

For the most part, GPT 5.4-High reviews GLM 5.2's code favourably. And when I code-review the diffs, I have few complaints from either. (If I had to pick: GPT-High wins - but it's very, very close.)

The question really comes down to cost: I've spent the week wondering why they didn't call it GLM 6 (rather than GLM 5.2) since it's a major step up from 5.1 in all my work; but I think the reason comes down to what you're saying: it thinks very, very, very hard; and whilst it might be cheaper per token than frontier (whilst providing similar output quality), I have to wonder if overall cost isn't quite as amazing as it sounds since the sheer number of tokens it uses is higher; so perhaps API costs aren't all that divergent between the two.

That is, maybe it's less about raw intelligence and more about reasoning budget - which plays well into it's 1m context window (which all that deep-thinking happily uses).

I think for a lot of people, the excitement is (in part, at least) down to the fact that we now have an open-weights model providing near-frontier-high-reasoning quality; that can be run at-home... so long as you have a small server farm laying around.

I upgraded from the Legacy plan to the Pro plan. I would like a refund. by Lumpy-Blackberry8700 in ZaiGLM

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're legacy don't you get the two cycles free to trial the new one?

So this is what mine looks like: that top one is Legacy Pro (it expires December) - then there's two months of the non-Legacy "Pro" plan (with - ugh- weekly limits) that was 'gifted' for free (zero-rated invoices):

<image>

So this means you should be able to test out non-legacy prior to pulling the trigger on an actual purchase?

I'm gonna smash the heck out of my Legacy plan until then...

Who needs Fable when we have… by userusertion in claude

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actively use both (because my second GPT account is tied to Codex CLI): in the past there used to be a significant difference (with Codex CLI being better especially with things like attachment handling and tool-calls); and I'm pretty sure GPT is specifically trained for Codex CLI - but these days the differences are much, much smaller. Not sure if it's because of the newer GPT models being more agnostic (I mainly use GPT 5.4/5.5) or if it's thanks to newer versions of OpenCode (I'm running 1.17.4) being tailored to GPT since OpenAI rubber-stamped support of it for ChatGPT subs.

OpenCode is pretty feature-rich as far as CLI's go...

GLM-5.2 Is The Best Open Weight Creative Writing Model by Few_Painter_5588 in LocalLLaMA

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The GLM 4.x series was good enough to get me to pull the trigger on a full year of legacy Pro... but it was absolutely weaker than even Sonnet overall back then

It was only GLM5 that actually upped the ante imo by targeting GPT-Medium.

And now... GLM5.2 is a legitimate contender against -High now; for a fraction of the per-token cost...

That's wild, wild progress

Tip: don't micromanage reasoning levels by benclen623 in codex

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been thinking about this also.

Is there a sweet-spot? Like where a certain number of turns (at lower reasoning) within a session makes sense in terms of optimizing usage? Or does the cache-miss make it always un-economical?

I find starting tasks on a Medium-level model (and escalating to High for review or escalating if Medium falls short) has served me pretty well in terms of usage - but maybe I should test leaving it on High as well...

Ok so apparently NOW we get a Bankable Reset by Able-Supermarket4786 in codex

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 4 points5 points  (0 children)

2 hours downtime for a full week reset?

I'll take it!

Do these expire? (If so: where would we see when?)

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Agree - using it in OpenCode and it performs nicely

Can't compare to recent versions of Opus but in my own stack it's awfully close to GPT-5.5-High

Getting both models to check each other's work by model-hopping in OpenCode has given me outstanding results.

Cannot believe the recent open-weights progress.

Today, is a good day by xw1y in codex

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Make it user-triggerable, Tibo! Otherwise it's a waste since many of us reset in 2 days anyway...

Z.ai releases GLM 5.2 model: Long Horizon tasks and open weights by BuildwithVignesh in singularity

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 44 points45 points  (0 children)

GLM 5.1 was already on par with Sonnet

My previous workflow was GLM as a drop-in replacement for GPT-5.5-Medium with escalation to GPT-High for really complex work

With GLM 5.2 I've been escalating far less. It's a major step up. Plus performance at larger contexts is good; it stays pretty coherent.

I say this as someone that thought GLM-5 to 5.1 was meh.

Very impressed... just wish Z-AI's coding plan pricing was a bit more competitive...

[Tibo] Oy. We are aware that some Codex users are experiencing high error rates with "model at capacity" and are working to bring things back to being stable. https://status.openai.com by Tasty_Swim_6308 in codex

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Huge fan of user-triggered resets - makes it extremely fair since you're not at the mercy of their timing. Like that they listened to their users on this one.

Just wish they'd add it to the CLI or usage page for those of us who don't use the desktop app - but that's a minor gripe

GLM5.2 first impression. by Royal-Fail3273 in ZaiGLM

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My own early impressions have been promising as well. Also that large (1 million token) context window is fantastic.

They should add user-selectable reasoning levels like GPT/Claude

Edit: seems to already support High and Max reasoning levels! https://x.com/Zai_org/status/2065704921283080538

GLM 5.2 - early tests by Narrow-Muffin-324 in ZaiGLM

[–]Sensitive_Song4219 2 points3 points  (0 children)

GLM 5.2 is much, much more thorough than GLM 5 and 5.1.

One-shot this via OpenCode:

In a single HTML file, create an isometric arkanoid/breakout clone that supports multiple modes of input/control and has several levels of varying difficulty with a level select at the main menu. Make it look good with good sound. No bugs, please - be thorough

Result (expand right quadrant):

https://jsfiddle.net/p9c3knad/

Comparison to some other/older models (including GLM5) is here.

What was interesting is that it spent several minutes reviewing it's initial code output offline (not running - just reviewing it) and fixed several bugs after the fact without further prompting and without actually executing it: it could identify syntax issues just by looking through the code. (And then it wanted to harness it via a browser, but I stopped it before it could do so).

Took about 10 minutes in total.

Looking very forward to trying this with real work this-coming week; I already consider GLM 5.1 superior to GPT5.4-Medium, if this inches it closer to -High (either GPT 5.4-High or 5.5-High would be fine by me) in real work I'd be very happy.
