you could feed bots the archive data and tell each of them to assume one poster's persona each then put them all on an isolated containment board and just give them ambient triggers to post occasionally then we could go spectate and pretend it's 2011 /moe/ again

LLMs always were, and always will be, just a mirror in fact, language
moon
in fact, language itself has a specific refractive index
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
okay but what do you think about JEV!
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
but yes language is a mirror or idk it some kinda interesting substrate for sure
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
its like if we took a modern human but didn't teach them any language at all how dumb would they be probably pretty unable to interact with machines and stuff but still with at least some intuition and ability to survive i wonder how well they would be able to learn from their mistakes without being able to write stuff down or tell other people about it just pure wordless reflection and recall

yea there are many aspects to conversation minds modelling minds
and then also just knowing like when a 'frame' starts and when it ends is such a fluid wet neural network thing that's a struggle for computers

I like how desperate the dark brotherhood is for recruits like you do one murder, and they're like "Oh sick, that's someone who absolutely, 100%, wants to devote their existence to cloak and dagger assassinations and a cult" Like bro
also it just doesn't make all that much sense In oblivion, the True dark brotherhood, it has to be a random civillian for who you have no contract, just an actual straight up murder And in oblivion, the dark brotherhood is big on the Rules and they're all about divinely bestowed contract murder Meanwhile, in Skyrim, it is specifically the one contract murder you can learn about, other murders don't grab their attention, but then when you actually get there, everyone's a psycho who just loves doing murders and there's no actual Rules beyond "we're a gang, so we don't hurt one another" Nobody in the Skyrim chapter of the dark brotherhod is like, a believer or particularly big on the whole "this is literally a cult, not just a hitman dispensary"

retro hacker movie set in the early days of the internet (2026) the hacker has a terminal open, accessing The World Bank's central serverfarm via leaked nordVPN credentials How did he gain access exactly? Oh, that's easy, they were using an old, unpatched version of mspaint.exe on one of the computers in the office, and from there it was smooth sailing
S C
actually I dunno if it makes sense as a retro movie, presumably in the future this is not going to come off as at all surprising
i accidentally stepped in new asphalt laid down and tracked a nit on sidewalk now im experiencing abnormally high guilt about it
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
you shoulda drawn ur initial in there or a moe meme
moon
like legitimately im having paranoia and a guilty cconscience over it and it makes no sense why my consciousness feels fragmented where i dont even feel the feeling but im observing myself feeling it
i think im split brained
i overheard the HOA people talking about it out in the parking lot like "yeah i bet it was [me]. i even warned [me] about it" but it makes no sense why or how id overhear them in that exact moment where they mention me explicitly, outside, from my bathroom, when it's muffled and so quiet. everything else they said was inaudible or out of focus but that exact moment my subconscious felt lile they were about to mention me, which was irrational, but they did
i dont like being conspicuous. i try to remain invisible. i just feel confused
moon
it's stuck in my head and i am unable to stop focusing on it even though it ddoesn't matter. i can feel the OCD and observe the feelings of concern, worey, anxiety, but i dont aactually feel them. its so bizarre.
like purely physiological response of having a soecific emotion without actually having the emotion
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>>1193552 yea dude sometimes my brain also generates those kinds of dialogues that
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
there's absolutely no way i would hear it from that range, there's no world where any of that lines up. it's purely my brain reaching for the worst possible scenario and trying to prep me to defend against it. just instinctual stuff. the paranoia can be crazy
>>1193555 yeah i knew that, i even went and talked to the folks it was purely mechanical and not an emotional conviction
there's just a knot-untangling gravity well in me that starts untangling knots that dont even exist yet it's probably practice for a deeper knot ssomewhere in my subby-c that i have latent anxiety about and no way to approach it

I'm back on that Medieval Dynasty shit it's a very chill game, honestly Just got through the first year, and I speedran romance so I already have a daughter Granted, my husband was the logger of the village (there are 5 of us total, child included) so we'll be in a bit of a downturn as far as log production goes for a while, but we've got a stockpile so it should be fine I also went absolutely sicko mode on the flax planting so now I'm spending 10 actual real life minutes just processing it into seeds and stalks, which I'll then use... a while to make into thread, and then into fabric, and then into clothes to sell for mad profits And I need those profits cause I need a lotta fertilizer for the next planting
My husband is still just tending to our child, but honestly I'm just gonna Produce another child the moment the current one is old enough to not need constant care Cause my house has room for 4, and the sooner I pump up my numbers, the sooner I get some real production going
S C
I shall reorganize the village at a later time Gotta get it a bit less... randomly plopped down
i mean honestly though skinning that model is not the hardest thing in the world or rather texturing skinning might be a bitch modelling also kinda a skillful thing takes a lot of messin around to get the geometry good
ya i went to play earlier and couldn't connect did some single player creative mode instead I was thinking of hosting a server on my own server pc but probably need a day without the kids to research and implement that
Fug it, I'm gonna just buy Medieval Dynasty So I can play with the DLC and stuff
S C
of course this means I must re-start the game but that's fine, because I'm just gonna try one of the new maps
S C
oh the new map dlc is upcoming, the "map pack" dlc is like, in-game actual map items
S C
the most stupid thing about medieval dynasty is the game's name is, you know, medieval dynasty, as in you can become your child later to continue your legacy but, you can't do that until the child is 18 each year has 12 days, each day is 30 minutes, give or take if you manage to birth a child day 1, that's nearly a full week of *only gaming* until it's old enough to inherit what you've built, and uh... at that point, I don't know if there's all that much left to do?
like it's a cool gimmick, but I don't actually know if the game has the sauce to make it a moment you ever actually encounter without going out of your way for it
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
truly a dysasty then plant a tree today so that in 20 years..
S C
yeah I just don't really know if there's enough Stuff To Do to keep you actually interfacing with mechanics rather than simply waiting for that long Like there's a lot of stuff to do, don't get me wrong, I do really enjoy the game, but I don't know if there's 100+ hours of actual gameplay

what kinda soup? i got an air fryer recently so i been air frying all sorts of chicken and stuff
creamynebula
>>1193668 This weekend I used a lot of pumpkin because it was very cheap. Then also some sweet potato, carrots, and chayote, according to google translate. I seasoned it with tumeric and salt, and some fresh green pepper. Next weekend I'll show you the soup
>>1193668 Air fried chicken is so good. My favourite meat from chicken is their heart though. Do you also eat their heart in your country?
>>1193673 Here it is available on some street food stalls in that format, but you can also order it in any steakhouse. My mother's mother raised chickens at home, so that's a fond memory of eating chicken
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
we dont usually eat chicken heart here but it can be done
The progress of year 1 "S C why are you using a torch in the middle of the day?" Because I sold all my clothes to afford flax seeds and fertilizer in spring, and only just now made enough progress that I can start making stuff from that flax, so all I've got is a coat Without that torch, I simply die
S C
first I must make a big run to town to sell 15 bowls of meat and cabbage soup, though because I don't own the schematics for the clothes I can make, despite having all the hardware I need then I can make some actual clothes
lmao early in the run I was desperately hunting for birds for a quest (I needed feathers) and I saw an eagle in a spot I've never seen one before. It was close to a regular eagle spawn, but right where it was isn't a regular spot they spawn in so I shot it anyway, went to skin it >legendary eagle got a trophy, didn't think much of it, figured it's probably for putting a decoration in your house or something, a 1 of 1 animal
but just now, I was in the smithy to make some more arrows, and I looked at the "legendary weapons" tab just to see what's up with that >legendary eagle bow >high damage >3000 durability (a regular bow is 200 durability) >doesn't require a schematic >the only remotely difficult to obtain ingredient is the trophy, which I already have

I don't really understand the concept of "free dlc" isn't that just like, an update? how is that different from a new version?
with stuff that alters how the game actually plays, I can sorta get it being a simple way to let the player disable it at will while still enjoying the benefits of the new version, but when it's just like "here's a new map you can choose to play on" it's like... don't get me wrong, I appreciate it being free, but why is it a "DLC" rather than just an addition to the base game?
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
idk it can just be like to drum up excitement maybe maybe its just as simple as creating like an entity in the steam store page idk

Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
tooo many video short form apps
moon
i think discord saturated the latent attention span of the general internet audience along with what sammy said short form apps occupy most of it but the social draw gets vacuumed up into discord servers i think
back in the imageboard days we spent a significantly longer time soaked into an activity before we found a place to spill out into a community which i think brought a lot of enthusiasm and momentum into the social sphere not that the same scrolling tendencies weren't present in imageboards
i still have the muscle memory ingrained for ctrl-t or alt-d then typing 4 or sci or d for doushio and spam-refreshing thinking back on it, doushio's liveboard format was an innovation for its time saving users potentially millions of ctrl-r or f5 keystrokes get this man an award from the world health organization

well, thanks to the bossman coming by to do some unrelated stuff, me and the Good Coworker managed to get everything done and we don't have to deal with the insanity that is getting a new delivery while the storage is already near full we accomplished this by getting the bossman to man the register while the two of us hauled absolute ass getting everything done everything that, it should be noted, should have been done by the previous shift, and then also the stuff that would have been left for our shift and we didn't get everything done, multiple things I just went "look, guys, we gotta just shuffle this into another storage area and then I guess I'll deal with it tomorrow or something, cause if we start fucking with this right now, we are NOT getting done here" with, and pretty much all the generic daily tasks have been completely ignored because, again, we literally didn't have time tobacco isn't restocked, sodas aren't restocked, the potato chips are a disaster because they haven't been touched in nearly a goddamn WEEK, not properly anyway, the freezer has not been gone through to restock the store properly, the milk hasn't been restocked, the salad bar has been mostly ignored, the top shelves haven't been touched because once again, if we started even dealing with that we would not have a shot in hell to get done
the bossman complimented the two of us for our hustle in response to this absolute fucking catastrophe, though, so that was nice, but I sure hope he has a serious talk with our other coworkers cause this can't fucking go on, the two of us can not keep the whole store barely above water on our own like this, we spend so much time doing the crucial stuff the other employees just fucking shirked, we don't get around to the stuff WE would normally have to get done the bossman wasn't even intending to be around for long today, he really just showed up to help out with the ordering of fruits&veggies and shit, then he was gonna go back home cause he's off
