I'm using computer use with Codex to work with an agent in Hermes and decided to have some fun with the SOUL.md to mess with Codex

I hope the good people at @NousResearch know this is one of my favorite features

@voidfreud “In order to better understand alignment, we nerfed Opus 5.5 so we can perfectly analyze how to counter misalignment”

@jbondwagon @LegionHoops Too bad it took him 20+ years to only be the owner of 4 rings

@CarlosLarez @trentonstech I’m not the one calling someone a sheep and trying to flex on stranger on the internet over the electronic rectangle I choose to have in my pocket

[Derek @mrdereksutton]

@joshuaearl_ @izziboye This might be hard to hear, but most people are paying monthly through their phone provider. So not $2k at once

[Derek @mrdereksutton]

@xxxs79667674 @joshuaearl_ @izziboye You’re making a comparison to a phone from over a decade ago? 😂 in that case, my Galaxy S4 would just randomly crash for no reason. Didn’t matter how I held it, or if I held it at all

[Derek @mrdereksutton]

@CarlosLarez @trentonstech Wow what an original insult. You must feel like a god!! Crushing the spirit of Apple customers one tweet at a time. So tough 😤

@bunny3111039587 @nfarina I’m not going to say someone is lying when there’s a video. I think it’s safer to say it might just be a weird quirk that happens for some people but not others, and it’s a funny random one at that

[Derek @mrdereksutton]

@voidfreud @DetailMyLife Lol it’s all good, I’m not bothered any. Crazy that people feel the need to tear down a stranger over something trivial

[Derek @mrdereksutton]

Calling your opinions “factual reasons” doesn’t make them facts. Value, software quality, and arrogance are subjective assessments. Claiming Apple deliberately limited its software to protect iPad sales is speculation about corporate motives. You’re entitled to those opinions, but presenting them as objective facts doesn’t make them so.

[Derek @mrdereksutton]

The $3,500 figure was given without a currency or region specified. I referenced the US starting price of $1,999.

And of course marketing influences opinions. That doesn’t mean Apple dictates what consumers should believe. Samsung markets against Apple too. That’s competition, and consumers benefit from it.

[Derek @mrdereksutton]

@daniel_scuteri @Dalast1woke @EzTech231 Repeating my own words back to me isn’t a rebuttal. Apple’s a competitor, and competition benefits consumers, including Samsung customers. For someone whose content seems to revolve around Samsung, your eagerness to turn that simple point into an argument is rather telling.

[Derek @mrdereksutton]

@daniel_scuteri @Dalast1woke @EzTech231 You’re arguing against claims I never made. I never said Apple’s foldable was superior in weight, software, or value. And it starts at $1,999, not $3,500. My point was simply that Apple’s opinion of Samsung doesn’t dictate what consumers should think. Competition benefits both.

[Derek @mrdereksutton]

@Dalast1woke @daniel_scuteri @EzTech231 Even if he feels that way, it’s not an indictment and ruling on what other people have to believe. He didn’t say “I believe this and therefore I demand you do.” Apple is a competitive company, they’re not going to just be like “Our competitors are so good so we won’t try”

@StarlightStolen @nfarina So does my iPhone lmfaooo

[Derek @mrdereksutton]

@bunny3111039587 @nfarina Just tried it on my iPhone and it works fine. Yet again Android users proving an obsession with wanting to be superior for some reason

[Derek @mrdereksutton]

@thsottiaux Yes, I don’t know how it’s not an option already

[Derek @mrdereksutton]

@nicdunz Dario is going to use this as an example in the future as why Anthropic doesn’t have an image model

[Derek @mrdereksutton]

@Baxti_7 @giadotai Maybe not yours. I’ve seen posts all day from others and have experienced it myself

[Derek @mrdereksutton]

@giadotai Benchmarks are a number, not an indication of the experience

[Derek @mrdereksutton]

@DetailMyLife @voidfreud I’m condescending because I said a model should act as expected? I’m not the one calling names here. Maybe take a break from AI if it makes you feel the need to be abusive.
