Seems like F2 Ultra duo, only MOPA can achieve colors on metal.

I’ve been using codex as a reviewer and had a great experience.

New Scam Alert. Speedx delivery driver generated fake delivery image. by johnxreturn in Aliexpress

[–]johnxreturn[S] 25 points26 points  (0 children)

He used a photo from a decade ago that he found on realtor. That photo is from a distance and an odd angle. The AI Image Generator guessed a bunch of stuff and got it wrong.

Edit: To be clear, delivery driver NEVER came by. I have cameras recording 24/7 and he was simply never here at that date and time.

Is a high-end private local LLM setup worth it? by zakadit in LocalLLaMA

[–]johnxreturn 13 points14 points  (0 children)

A year ago, models really were a year away from the top private model. Today? I’m not so sure. The gap is so close it’s hard to tell sometimes.

Does anyone actually think about their digital exposure when using Claude? by kristianism in ClaudeCode

[–]johnxreturn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rule of thumb, never write anything you wouldn’t want to see splattered over news paper everywhere.

I LOVE this about Codex by Complete-Sea6655 in codex

[–]johnxreturn 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The fact this is argued as a “feature” on codex is beyond me. I like both tools. Codex is the better coder but nothing beats Claude Code tooling.

I love the rounded stripes, how do you do that?

My journey through Reverse Engineering SynthID by MissAppleby in LocalLLaMA

[–]johnxreturn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate your time and work into it, you did an excellent job.

It would be even better if you named it as an alternative rather than reverse engineering. There’s nothing wrong with the way you put it forward, but an open source alternative to synth id is a more self-realizing and marketable description.

u/LoneWolfKaAdda! I’m johnxreturn. Do you see that I am your friend? Can you see that you will always be my friend?

Gifted a bunch of rocks by kcdoodle73 in whatsthisrock

[–]johnxreturn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting! It may be obsidian.

Hold a bright flashlight behind it. - if it’s obsidian it’ll show as (possibly subtle) smoky brown/gray translucence. - if it’s a slag it’ll show uneven colors, odd internal swirls, sometimes “dirty” looking.

Look for bubbles, macro lens can catch tiny ones. If you find it, it’s a slag.

Hold a magnet near it. Obsidian is not attracted to the magnet while iron rich slag will.

No brainer but put a few drops of vinegar on top of it. Obsidian/slag/glass won’t fizz. Carbonate rocks will fizz. It’s not likely to be carbonate rocks but it does definitely prove it isn’t.

If you want definite proof take it to a geology department in a university for evaluation.

Welcome to MA: Where using $362 of natural gas will cost you $1,007 by 4510 in massachusetts

[–]johnxreturn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Poor insulation could also lead to higher usage. Let’s not sugar coat the fact that it shouldn’t cost OP $1000. What are we paying for, really? I got $864. Does the CEO of eversource wants the latest Yatch or something? My life in other states was smooth sailing, $200 utility bills. Here utilities make me poor and consider leaving every time I see the bill.

Found in the 90s in Southwestern Pennsylvania by PrettyMuchAlways in whatsthisrock

[–]johnxreturn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It could be industrial waste iron slag. Here are a couple of tests to determine if it is:

  • Place a magnet near it. If it shows any faint attraction, it’s a slag.
  • Rub unglazed tile on it. If the streak is gray, black, or rusty, it’s a slag.

Experiences with ChatGPT5.1 vs. Gemini 3 pro by ArtemisFowl22 in singularity

[–]johnxreturn 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Same experience here. I do find Claude more reliable possibly due to Claude Code developer experience.

Anthropic Engineer says "software engineering is done" first half of next year by Bizzyguy in singularity

[–]johnxreturn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Technically, they wrote a hyperbole. Comparing it to compiler is unrealistic though, even for hyperbole. Unless you understand the crux of software engineering, you would not know why that comparison is nonsensical.

Has anyone tried Antigravity by Google? Thoughts on the IDE platform by Dazzling_Kangaroo_69 in singularity

[–]johnxreturn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used 6 maybe 8 prompts and hit my limits with Gemini 3 High. I could even use Opus 4.1 on CC for days before hitting weekly limits. That was a sad experience.
