My wife wanted to play frozen bubble, I was trying to get the original Perl version running and it was taking more work than I wanted. So I pointed free trial codex to it and asked to remake it in Rust. Its far from perfect but its playable and fun with three prompts.

This is something I would never have dedicated any time otherwise.

I just installed the original on Fedora, it works fine.
That's actually interesting, I checked and someone has been patching the original for newer Fedora versions. I only saw the original was abandoned did not remember to check distro repos. That patched version is likely much easier to run on a Mac too.
Why? To waste more AI resources? Because it's Rust?
Because the Perl one did not run on Mac easily and I wanted to see how it would handle, how much effort it would require of me, etc. The goal was for me to learn how the Ai behaves in this kind of task on something I though was fun and more people can play around with if they like.

But secretly, I just wanted to drain another swimming pool!
