If I’m reading this right, this is yet another example of people claiming to run Doom somewhere, but is actually only displaying Doom, while Doom is running somewhere else, on another system.
I must admit that I was excited about the idea of reading how to take C code and translate it to iOS shortcuts. Sure it's slow, but it's a wonder that the pig sings at all. How disappointed I was when I read more of TFA.
They played fine on my laptop, but would not scan as gifs in iOS. It was a nightmare of a problem to debug - what are your search terms here?
The GIF specification, GIFs that work and those that don't, and a hex editor.
Given all the other impressive work in this article, I'm surprised that wasn't an easy problem for them to debug --- the latter seems almost trivial to me (find the differences) in contrast to the amount of creative thinking required to figure out how to run Doom in iPhone Photos.
I guess this shows how different skillsets are. Debugging gifs also sounds a lot easier to me than setting up a remote controlled doom and screencapturing it, but I guess it all depends on your prior experience.
I recall many years ago I was able to extend a video by multiple minutes of a black screen, by extracting the timestamps (PTS?) of frames to a text file, then increasing the timestamp of the final frame (or end of video?) by a very large number. Sadly I'm unable to find the files or program I used to do it.
eieio.games uses an invalid security certificate.
The certificate is not trusted because it was signed
using a signature algorithm that was disabled because
that algorithm is not secure.
Error code: SEC_ERROR_CERT_SIGNATURE_ALGORITHM_DISABLED
"border", not "boarder"
Also it's "borderline" one word, not "border line". It's a compound word.
A boarder is someone who boards at a boarding school.
A border is an edge, a boundary.

Essentially a "VNC client in iPhone Photos App"

I thought that this was going to be another article talking about how apple really messed up the photos app this time around.

A bit off topic but is there any good resources to get started and learn about iOS shortcuts?
This is boarder line a 'choose your own adventure' style thing. It is so stupid it had to be done!

So useless, so beautiful. Love stuff like this!
Now I am left wondering if you can do interesting things in the Files.app with the WebDAV support, and quick previews.
