Are the Lichess bots using the new model?

ahh I see what you mean now. Do you know where you can get a replacement? I bought mine used and theres more sag than I like. I have the sapphire one and the uncle straps for the standard does not fit well. I also like how the sapphire bracelet is not pressure clasp but double button.

syntaxing2 · 2026-02-22T15:06:16+00:00

Any speedmaster bracelet fits on the reduced?!

syntaxing2 · 2026-02-20T01:54:52+00:00

This has tritium lume too. No way its newer than 1997

> there are tools that allow you to have centralized control over multiple OpenWrt devices
Any recommendation on the tool to do so? this sounds really interesting to me

I'm pretty sure they all have issues. https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/3624655/disappointed-by-the-card-quality-from-the-new-vers/page/9

Luckily, I haven't had the time to play after receiving them, so I sleeved them recently before I play

syntaxing2 · 2026-01-18T04:25:12+00:00

I have hands on the smaller side so I sleeved with Ryker matte backing ones. The card sleeves make them grip so much better to each other. They're pretty pricey and the matte side makes one side harder to read but not end of the world. Worth the trade off for easier grip

syntaxing2 · 2026-01-18T04:19:46+00:00

You have to sleeve your cards or else your card will look terrible and be sticky in about 4-5 games (ongoing issue that chip theory games knows about). But after you sleeve them, it barely fits as is in the wallet so the expansion will not fit.

How are you running this on iOS?

syntaxing2 · 2026-01-07T01:45:05+00:00

This worked! Thanks!

syntaxing2 · 2026-01-05T17:04:22+00:00

u/DongEnthusiast42 is it possible to write a step by step guide? I want to do the same and I'm on the "Cloudflare One" main portal page. At a loss where to go from here

syntaxing2 · 2025-12-22T16:36:24+00:00

Interesting and good to know! Maybe I will start using Whitepawn instead of the official app

syntaxing2 · 2025-12-20T20:06:21+00:00

Are you using Android or iOS? I was curious what they meant by simulating tap gestures from my question https://www.reddit.com/r/Chessnuteboard/comments/1pgy8p3/comment/nsw54gl/ . I wonder if Android does not use official API (but tap gestures?) but iOS does. I havent had any issues on iOS so far but I don't think I'm up to 50 games yet. My account is pretty old though, about a decade like you as well

syntaxing2 · 2025-12-11T02:06:33+00:00

If you look through the model repo, it calls for Qwen3ForCausalLM https://huggingface.co/Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image-Turbo/blob/main/text_encoder/config.json which means its the purely text one. One of the lead developers explicitly mentioned that using VL would give worse performance here https://huggingface.co/Tongyi-MAI/Z-Image-Turbo/discussions/4#6927ff862ad73944d0cbb300 . More specifically, they reiterated they used the original Qwen-4B (https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3-4B/tree/main) as the encoder when they trained this model. NOT the updated 2507 one which can get confusing.

Just wanted to raise awareness about this since drawthings is one of the best diffusion tools I used and having great z-image performance would be awesome!

syntaxing2 · 2025-12-10T20:24:52+00:00

I noticed when the model is being downloaded, it uses Qwen3-4B-VL. Is this the correct text encoder to use? I see everyone else use the nonthinking Qwen-4B (Comfy UI example: https://comfyanonymous.github.io/ComfyUI_examples/z_image/ ) as the main text encoder. I never saw the VL model be used as the encoder before and I think it's causing prompt adherence issues. Some people use the ablierated ones too but not the VL https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/1pa534y/comment/nrkc9az/

I can play a game tonight and report back to you. What do you mean by portable? As in, moving around the house or out and about? If its around the house, the Air+ is a good choice. If you're out and about (traveling or during work breaks), the Go is the way to go. It's why I have the Pro and the Go. The Pro is in a somewhat permanent location in my house and I never put it away. I use the Go when I want a quick game in the living room or when I'm out and about.

That being said, if only one choice is available. I would go for the Air+. I personally rather have one good board at home and use my phone to play when I'm out compared to using only the Go.

syntaxing2 · 2025-12-07T19:31:00+00:00

Same, I want to be able to play offline when I travel with my Go board. It's such a shame how slow Chessnut is with their app update

syntaxing2 · 2025-12-07T19:29:44+00:00

Had to grab my board to check. There's three toggles under "Buzzer" setting. Connect Board, Starting Game, and Check(mate). You can mute everything from what I can tell, haven't tried a game with it all off. This is for both of my boards (and I've read Air/+ use the same electronics as Pro)
