@evercaderetro @RareLtd Imagine getting an Evercade with Banjo-Kazooie to open on Christmas morning. Not bad.

No subscription. Nothing leaves your device.

AI subscriptions just became optional.

[Nathan Geckler @NathanGeckler]

a lot of you have been asking how i make the animations for my apps

i generate the images with ChatGPT, animate them with Easemate AI, make the background transparent

then i tell Anything to add them to my app

Quick recap:
🐍 Python packages → pip list
📦 Virtual env? Activate first
🧩 VS Code extensions → code --list-extensions
Super handy for debugging, sharing your setup, or generating requirements files.

[Retro Game Realm @retrogamerealm]

Want to see all the VS Code extensions you have installed instead?
Run:
code --list-extensions
Or save them to a file:
code --list-extensions > extensions.txt

The real lesson from Influence isn’t how to manipulate people.

It’s how to recognize when persuasion is happening — and make better, more intentional decisions.

Once you read it, marketing stops feeling random.

You start seeing the pattern

[Retro Game Realm @retrogamerealm]

Scarcity changes how we assign value.

When something feels limited, our brain treats it as more desirable.

“Only a few left.”
“Doors close tonight.”
“Limited release.”

Scarcity creates urgency, and drives action.

If everything is available forever, nothing feels special.

[Google Gemini @GeminiApp]

Gemini Prompt Tip: When you give Gemini a persona, it can help you get a better response.

Keep the persona simple. A clear job title works better than a complicated character.

Try including “Act as a [profession]…” at the beginning of your prompt to see how a persona changes the style of Gemini’s response.

[Demis Hassabis @demishassabis]

The AI field is in need of harder benchmarks to test capabilities of the latest AI models. This update to @Kaggle Game Arena with werewolf and poker (heads-up) plus chess, gives us new objective measures of real-world skills like planning and decision making under uncertainty.

Common use cases for open LLMs:
• Private chatbots for companies
• On-device AI (phones, laptops, edge)
• Research & experimentation
• Domain-specific assistants (legal, medical, code)
• Regions where data privacy really matters

Open LLMs = flexibility + ownership

[Retro Game Realm @retrogamerealm]

@twostraws Excellent, well done. Bought It.
