  • Haven’t tried the other two, but I would say yes if you do roguelikes. The physics and reactions are the half of it, the wandbuilding mechanics let you build some completely bizzare and powerful wands, and with a little luck can start getting a godrun fairly quick… but you’re always vulnerable.

    Highly recommend going in blind, there are a lot of secrets to find, different sidequests, etc, winning the game once is a milestone.














  • It does help to know what those funny letters mean. Now we wait for regulators to catch up…

    If anything, we’re a very long way from anything close to intelligent, OpenAI (and subsequently MS, being publicly traded) sold investors on the pretense that LLMs are close to being “AGI” and now more and more data is necessary to achieving that.

    If you know the internet, you know there’s a lot of garbage. I for one can’t wait for garbage-in garbage-out to start taking its toll.

    Also I’m surprised how well open source models have shaped up, its certainly worth a look. I occasionally use a local model for “brainstorming” in the loosest terms, as I generally know what I’m expecting, but it’s sometimes helpful to read tasks laid out. Also comfort in that nothing even need leave my network, and even in a pinch I got some answers when my network was offline.

    It gives a little hope while corps get to blatantly violate copyright while having wielding it so heavily, that advancements have been so great in open source.



  • I was being pessimistic when I said he wouldn’t be charged with squat if they run the Stormy Daniels case before, you know, ruling on the integrity of our highest office.

    My father still remains hopeful “they’ll get him like they got Al Capone” (on taxes), but I have a hard time seeing that through when he still has judges appointed by him, ruling on him. Oh and yeah we’re not even going to approach his highest crimes because that would be disadvantageous to his campaign… give me a break ffs
