joeyagreco··on Say farewell to the AI bubble, and get ready for the crash
Using how GPT-5 generates text within an image is a terrible way to test it.

I heavily dislike GPT-5 but at least have a fair review of it.

joeyagreco··on Fixing the mechanics of my bullet chess
on computer, the difference between the 2 is negligible in my opinion, since either way you have to place the mouse at the start and then navigate to the finish with the only difference being if you are holding down left click or not.

on phone/tablet, the difference between the 2 is massive, since you don't have to slide your finger across the screen and can just tap tap (and even use multiple fingers if you want.
