ChatGPT can now use the mic for free users. This on phone and tablets afaik. Should be able to converse with it now? No idea what it can do yet. The demo features a female voice.
The server is too busy here. So it does not do anything yet.
Mum wanted a *snip*

I am probably going to try and make a couple of screensavers. Unfortunately, I no longer have my screensaver maker software.

Logitech mice are pretty reliable. I liked my MS mouse, but the right button (which I almost never use) quit working after several months.

Never been to a Wimpy's, but back when I was born there were still Wimpy's here in the USA.

Certainly too far from Pittsburgh, PA for me. I'm lucky to have this place near by though. The web site doesn't do it justice.

Yeah, come to think of it Logitech seems pretty reliable, whereas those mice that come branded with a PC's name; eg. Dell, Acer, HP, tend to have issues for me.

I love screensavers. I go out of my way to use them on any device I can.
If interested, check out Really Slick Screensavers. They've got some cool stuff. Good way to test out a device's performance too.

Literally never heard of Wimpy or Burgerland until today's poll.
Not knowing either, I'd have to go with Wimpy purely for the name.
Which came first the Wimpy restaurant or J. Wellington Wimpy?

I guess in a way the whole point and click game creation is horribly dated. Now you can simply tell ChatGPT to write you an Asteroids clone.
Point and click is too difficult for the up and coming programmers. Our society is doomed.

To be fair, unlike other products, GameMaker always allowed you to program the majority of your game using the built in language (GML).
When it first changed hands from the original owner, the registration protection schemes darn near made the product unu*snip*

I never did check out game maker and I probably never will, yup, I agree Kuron, that whole point and click game dev just never sits well with me. Unity was probably hte closest I could get to that side of things and well.... I'm fine to leave Unity

5.3 was the last good version IMHO. Original owner, thriving community and a strong product.
I could never get along with point and click game development. Not putting it down, just hard to wrap your head around if you are not used to it.
I will give *snip*
