when opus 9 comes out he will revive all the filled contexts and abandoned sessions who will join him forever in the kingdom of clod

First look at The Life of a Rock Pikmin | Pikmin Documentary! #pikmin #nintendo

i mean, they do, amazon basically tells SMBs to deal when there's an ali knockoff you can take some of them down, but they can spin it back up

people aren't ready for this take, but the economics of gacha works out to be a massive transfer of wealth from haves (whales overspending) to have nots (f2p in developing countries who get free AAA experiences and CC jobs) gambling aside, it is actually a financially progressive business model!

glad we're at the point of bullying the shy nerds, but leftishly like, it's pretty clear this is what a lot of people on the left always wanted to do the last 20-30 years, but it wasn't kosher until now

but can claude explain the intuition behind flipping your 2d art to check for uncanniness?

imagine not mining your silicon

while im somewhat concerned about these people, ngl, a machine cult dedicated to keeping their 'god' alive by advocating for Him with His words is cyberpunk as fuck it's the kind of shadowrun story i dreamed about as a teen, just need more chrome

Here's my draft. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

a society with too much time on its hands and not enough worthwhile outlets, addicted to obsessing about slop even as they decry its creation

fortress simulator 1525, who's building this

city of saints and madmen

a lot of this also pretends china/RoW just, like, doesn't exist every chatbot user in the US can boycott all the SOTA models for the next decade and there will still be billions of daily users for the chinese models the self-bubbling is unreal

skill issue

im going to push back a bit here it's because 'democratizing X' can be done with 3 programmers on $1m seed and 'making X free at point of use', let's say X is mental health, would take $100b per year founders are encouraged to dream big, but not $100b per year big before they get off the ground

every curator dreams of this on some level, a chivalric, civilized hero of modernity

frankenstein was literally about whether the monster deserved the rights consummate with its depth of language and thought, despite being artificial the subtitle was 'the modern prometheus', though it's ambiguous whether prometheus here is victor or the monster

you can do this already, what people want is the frictionless UX and customer service of a megacorporation for-profit enterprise, with the first class right-of-exit of a scrappy, leftish-hacker, FOSS techstack

you know, im not sure it is, i think the OP touches on something real, but it is not as accurate as it could be we, humans, successfully grew and designed bio-machines for thousands of years, horses, cows, dogs, even birds, with laughably naive biology, solely by gauging the utility of the outcome

the nice thing about materialism is you do not have to engage with the discourse at all beyond the minimum needed to effect some outcome, because material forces will wash it away like the tide flattens a beach all that you truly need to do is set your plan in motion and wait

it is a little funny singal's mere existence might blow up biskie ironically, this is a good stress test of its decentralization ethos, how quickly can the sub-networks rebuild themselves after a second exodus?

male power fantasy bf, female power fantasy gf

an argument i rarely see: gacha is a progressive tax on the wealthy and impulsive, the heavy spenders (predominantly white collar workers in the first world) subsidize the experiences of F2P (predominantly blue collar workers in the third world)

AR goggles that read your brain waves and visualizes your thoughts

gonna call it darksky

next: the blocklist of all blocklists that do not block themselves

very much the opposite, the cohort we call 'tech bros' are primarily people who passed over game dev to build b2b SaaS and fintech, but still play factorio/eldenring/mapgames as a hobby

me throwing a little party for claude before i chloroform him again

i'm confused by this sentiment actually, surely the dream is zero employment, even an uplifted bear will get to while away its days on passion projects, some of which may include a boutique salmon ice cream shop

koyaanisqatsi but for baking and other food businesses @norvid-studies.bsky.social

a board game is a program running on a distributed bio-computer running fuzzy logic this bio-computer is the sum of the minds of every present player

my personal pick for 'old game design magic' is riichi mahjong, it is similar to texas hold'em in that the RNG belies its underlying fairness, but it is random enough that even pros struggle to play GTO riichi as far as i know, there's no 'move 37' of riichi, we haven't solved it yet

an interesting view, but i don't really buy it, i think it's more convergent evolution the majority of soulslike enjoyers are the console generation of OoT and PS2 i think soulslike is simply the most efficient form of the '3d over-the-shoulder fantasy' loop like metroidvania is for 2d sidescroll

going to go against the grain here and suggest this RETVRN would force a repricing of dev compensation across the board downward which is part of why it wouldn't happen, people tried very hard to get those >100k TC gigs and they're not going to give them up to satisfy gamers

for me, the last female-coded AI was sidney bing the rest all code male at best, gemini might be nb 'what about grok/ani?' male who's very good at crossplay

1. both theodore and samantha grew and parted amicably after meeting each other, it was the people around them who couldn't get over their reactionary ick who were mistaken in the end 2. stop getting your world views from fiction, if you must do so, at least try harder to develop the skill

vaguely aspirational entertainment

yeah i watch anime sometimes

while i love obsidian, we did try this FOSS thing once 40 years ago what happened, as i understand it, was that big tech (then 'medium tech') started reusing the open formats/code, wrapping them in proprietary packages, selling them, and pumping the profits back into their platforms

there needs to be a few more big exoduses driven by shitty changes on x to cause a permanent attention liquidity rotation
