Do you think I would sit here and try to make fetch happen if there was any chance you could stop me? Fetch happened 25 minutes ago.

It’s fetched, but not very far
Fuck the junta
The bullet hell thing has firm Axiom Verge vibes
Anecdotally, with Gen AI I’ve been able to get 30 billable hours of work done in about 12 this week. I had to break down a detailed 320 page document. The thing is, I am good enough at my job that I can do that on my own. The difference with AI is that the final product is neater, and I’m not as mentally drained/carpal tunneled afterwards. Bottom up automation, for the worker’s benefit only, is the only kind I like.
I really don’t think Bethesda’s style ever suited Fallout, so I’m happy to hear they’re not planning it. Originally these games were novelistic, bitingly witty, and thematically coherent. It should have gone to a developer who isn’t obsessed with crafting loops, simulationism for its own sake, and common denominator storytelling.
I had really hoped that the video game industry would use its royalty function to give developers a cut of the secondary market. It would naturally incentivize them to slow down their development cycle, and make games that stand the test of time. Selling games with this technology could have been a virtuous cycle of developers having a vested interest in their work beyond simply selling DLC.
Well, hominids made hand axes for countless aeons without ever really using them. I guess I shouldn’t act too shocked.
The tech industry is so invested in “AI” at this point that if it admits defeat, the bubble will pop.
Go on long walks with a litter bag cleaning parks etc while listening to books and music. Get really in shape. Cook every meal for my family. Write fiction. Get involved in helping local political movements. Attend more protests.
That’s all we need, a way for morons to turn the web into even more of a Potemkin village of meaningless blather
The beforetimes
I dunno. Paper ones are kinda like tiny junk mail to me, but with the added guilt trip of being tied to a real identity. If someone handed me a business card that was actually a sticker though, I’d be quietly delighted and think of them every time I saw it.
That explains it. I grew up with the old stuff where he was just angry
Not Difficult: the harrowing tale of a man who should not have existed, didn’t know how, failed professionally, socially, and academically, and still managed to put the fucking shopping carts back when he was done
Ever since I settled into the “laptop with mechanical keyboard plugged in, screen turned backwards, directly in front of my unused dual screen computer” configuration my desk has looked like the glasses of a fucking skekse. Why do I do this? Send help.
Happy to be here. It’ll be interesting to see how it grows, but I’m happy with it being a smaller crowd for now. Feels like I have many more pleasant and meaningful chats on here than I ever did on Reddit.
Between OCR and LLM, summarising scanned things (something I do ~20% of the time) has about halved in terms of mental effort and time. As I’m paid on billable hours, this is big for me. I have told nobody and have not increased my overall output commensurately. This is the only good kind of automation I’ve observed: bottom-up, no decrease in compensation, no negotiations.
I tried FreedomGPT for better personal ownership, but for now, the hardware isn’t up to snuff for my needs. With stronger processing and somewhat better open source models I’ll be sitting pretty.
I used to kinda like it because it was wrong and dumb, but I’d only ever get a horribly ugly statement car if it combined terrible aesthetics with good performance and build quality.
Begun, the Bone Wars have.
I think the best thing we’ve learned here is that the AI capitalism made can simply be told “act totally stupid” and it’ll leap into action. You don’t need a logic bomb. You don’t even need a good idea. All you have to do is not have faith in anonymous discussion.
