a quick bio because why not eh?

why are there no urinals in any Italian public loos 😭😭

I’m still really interested in which devices OpenAI/users are running the new open weight models on.. the 20b model is certainly not gonna run on an iPhone, and I don’t think a 4090 (or better) is a ā€œConsumer GPUā€ lol

One thing I missed about this gpt-oss launch is that Ollama secretly launched a new ā€œollama turboā€ subscription. interesting that a company focused on local ai is offering cloud inference, but I’m curious what you get out of the $20/mo. hope someone covers this!

lol wish me luck, i’m remotely SSHing into my Mac mini at my house through super slow WiFi from another country to try and run the gpt-oss 20B model on an M2 Mac mini with only 8GB of RAM

what a confusing sentence to type

Well… downloading gpt-oss 20b on my iPhone 16.. lets see how (slowly) this’ll run (walk)

šŸ¤”

rip, just from looking at the parameter size of the new OSS models from OpenAI, I don’t think I’ll be able to get either to run on my hardware 😭

(They have a 20b model & a 120b one)

WOAH, finally OpenAI released open models!

Gonna look at their site about it šŸ‘€

openai.com/open-mode… https://openai.com/open-models/

TIL Europe has a Coop that’s not the UK one 😧

also I like this ice tea ā˜•ļø

I love how this ā€œDeletingā€ status popup thing looks like it’s from an older iOS version and never updated :P

Nooo my 200GB is full 😭

also why is the next plan up 2TB!? I’m not paying Apple Ā£9/mo for 10x the storage when I’ve been using 200GB for years now..

f*ck perplexity

Wow something happened to this computer at the service station restaurant 😭

This was pretty cool! My data cut out so I clicked on the little satellite thing on my iPhone (control centre) and it gave me an option to ā€œTestā€ the satellite for some reason? (I think it’s only for SMS texts/calls)

Cool to try tho, not done it before

Gonna pay for DarkRoom again. It’s just too good of a photo editor, and I like the export with frame feature + presets. Worth it for the shots ima take on this holiday… just wait šŸ“·

Took this photo in a moving car on my iPhone 16 in night mode!

Tried to edit the black to be a bit darker since the road lights kinda made it a paler grey - not sure how it is tho, the stars look a bit blue imo

Still cool?

Why does everyone in France have a Samsung galaxy phone lol

I’m in between all the Galaxies 🌌

I think it’s super wrong that Elon/Twitter can just take people’s usernames at their own will. They keep doing it more and more for their new Grok-related shit… people deserve their own handles. Thank god atproto/decentralised social media lets you own your profile.

Posting from France šŸ‡«šŸ‡·

Nice dinner and walk with (extended) family from the UK today. Nice day! Early morning tomorrow… looooong travel šŸš—

YouTube and YouTube music’s auto download thing is super nice. Didn’t realise YT did it too, just noticed as I’m now downloading vids in advance for tmrw when I’m offline. Should be a free feature imho.

The funniest part of Spotify deactivating accounts that don’t complete the age verification process is that it only affects Spotify the most in the end ĀÆ_(惄)_/ĀÆ

uhh, why are so many companies making Twitter AI bots?

Perplexity, Grok (unsurprising tho) and now Anthropic?

imo with the price of the Twitter API it’s best to just spend that money elsewhere..

nothing more sad than vibe coding and refreshing your openrouter balance every 20 seconds :((

Wtf… saw this just now with a UK VPN turned on.. will have to setup my Tailney to be setup somewhere else 😭

hammer to, hammer to, hammer to faaaaalll

twitter and twitter-like apps should add a ā€œretweetā€ button where it removes all context of the tweet. the author is hidden, no replies of the original are shown. it’d be funny imo

Whoa… I checked the box for the ā€œiOS 26 Public Betaā€ in settings (currently on #iOS 18.5) and I’m seeing a size of nearly 17GB to update to from an iPhone 16!

Should I do it tho?? I’m so unsure, ig I could always go back 😭

Simon Willison poster about Mistral’s report on environmental impacts of their models

"which estimated ~100 London to New York flights with 350 passengers or around 5,100 US households for a year"

Quite an interesting observation imo šŸ¤”

fun, I like doing these!!!

i’ve been having fun with OpenCode and Gemini’s free API + OpenRouter tbh, good alternative to Cursor that lets you use it at your own cost + it’s open source!

Wondering if it’s possible to make XFCE look good after ricing šŸ¤”

Got sun cream on this time!! (I forgot last week on a hot day) and about to go to a friend’s house to swim in his pool with a few others too ā˜€ļøšŸŒ¤ļø

Open Social web app idea for Surf Social and/or OpenVibe (or anyone else up for it) - global search. type in someone’s Bluesky/Mastodon/Threads/nostr usernames and type in one query to see any of their posts/replies on each platform with that content all in one go

using this as my current iPhone wallpaper - shot on iPhone with #Zerocam app!

Darkroom for effects afterwards
