doesnt really help if I cant find them and I guess if I could find them so could GW and they would be taken down. Having an application you can host at home that could do the job from pictures would be awesome

I dont know that app specifically, but from all videos of different lidar and other 3d scanning tools I have seen the results are pretty bad and require a lot of sculpting after the scan. Whole point was that with few images the ML model could construct the actual 3d model for you

I dont know how that solves this. How do you get STLs out of gausian splats?

If down the line this model could create 3D model from 2D images that would be very neat way to pay less for war gaming models

Yeah that’s not good for current Copilot usage since you are paying per request not by token

You are prompting the same model to review what it just did?

Hope people doing those kinds of automations are paid to waste prompts and tokens. Any cron based LLM run is just stupid waste

That is a lot of prompts. What kind of prompts do you usually give?

Mine are usually giving specification and telling Claude to implement some part of it, referring to existing code base, writing unittests and running e2e until it passes. This can easily take 4-5 hours.

Then again, I have seen colleagues prompt “are you sure?” And other nonsense like that

How you burn 300 requests in a day? From my Copilot usage Opus consumes surprisingly few requests to do a lot of stuff. It isn’t paying by token but instead by prompt or something.

Because there is no negatives, only positives.

I can maintain the Python code myself and I can execute it everywhere.

If I let my LLM write in Rust then when things break I am out of luck. Also Rust needs to be compiled which means I can't just share the code as freely.

Is this actually dithering?

I have dabbled with some dithering algorithms and while this is way faster than my naive js implementations, this looks pretty bad

Let’s put age limit on gaming then.

Gamblers will always find a way to gamble. I like getting cosmetics for free even if they are randomized. I don’t think I have ever bought keys to loot boxes, I just don’t see the point.

And I see no problem with that. I have never bought a single skin for Counter Strike nor Team Fortress 2 and I have bunch. Well, I used to, but then CS2 came out and all of a sudden my skins and unopened boxes were valued at hundreds of euros and I sold them on steam.

Maybe hot take in this age, but loot boxes for cosmetics aren't a problem when you can get cosmetics by just playing.

Even in these comments I keep hearing the same complaint: "when you do open source people come asking for support and complaining about your software"

I don't get why this is such an issue. You can just ignore these people if you don't want to interact with them. You shouldn't take bug reports or support requests personally.

Yes. I misspoke. It dropped very very late on Wednesday, most of the work started on Thursday and Friday was a Mayday which is a holiday in many if not most places. So fine, on a technicality it wasn't a Friday release, but it might as well have been. They could have easily waited for Monday.

So why not just tell immediately on discovery? After all every flaw exists already so what’s the difference?

That is just being pedantic. Why did they absolutely need to release this into the wild now? Why couldn’t they have waited?

“30 days should be enough time” why? Why is 30 days a magic number? Especially in open source.

Yeah it isn’t the researchers problem to tell every distributor of the kernel about the fix or verify that everyone has the fix, but fuck maybe wait until at least someone has the fix and maybe don’t drop it on a Friday. That is just malicious

Maybe. I stopped using OpenAI a while ago. But taking pictures of the nutrition labels was good enough

Any app I have used before has asked me to look up the foods and add them manually and usually there has been ads or subscriptions involved.

Much easier for me to take pictures of the packets while making the food, the weight the final bulk product and then when I eat just weight the plate and say “500g of casserole” and the LLM spits out the calories and keeps track of the daily consumption

As someone who used to do this. OpenAI models refuse to look up calories unless you explicitly tell them to and even then it is a hit and miss even if you tell them exactly what the product is. Easiest way to get good calculation is to just take a photo of the nutrition label or feed that info in by hand.

Funny thing is 4o did look up calories but I guess it was too good for this world

And it can be made better easily. Take a picture of the nutrition label of the bread and cheese first and then feed in this picture and you should get way better results

I used LLMs to count calories, but not based on photos, I mean I also did that, but primarily I fed in my exact ingredients and then used weights to get calorie estimates.

Was it always correct? Certainly not. But it helped me lose 30kg of weight since keeping even some track of calories was so much easier with LLM than any app I had used before.

Also of course it didn’t matter if I was exactly on point since it wasn’t about any kind of medicine

I guess I better just use same password everywhere then…

I guess you haven't played many MMOs. Unless you just mean "it moves like wow and and has quests" because that is not what I meant. I meant that you have to make a whole new world with its own lore and all new quests and NPCs and monsters and spells and classes and whatever. You can't literally just slap a coat of paint on WoW and expect to get away with it.

I really think it is ego. Blizzard is the king of MMO makers, they can’t do anything wrong in their own eyes. They have the data that shows that people want to just play alone and care about the story above everything while completely refusing to acknowledge that the game never was about either of those and that game play style only rose up later as the MMO part got lost.

If Blizzard was to hire the turtle team and add all their content into a real classic plus experience that would be admitting that Blizzard is incapable of doing that faithfully and if it got popular then that raises even more questions about Blizzard and their C suites decisions

Turtle wow definitely wasn’t a roguelike it was “Classic Plus” experience with new class/race combinations, all new races, new zones, and new quests

If you just make “wow but with different graphics” how long until Blizzard sues you?

I am running ollama as back end and open webui as front end. It handled downloading and swapping between models.

What is the llama-cpp alternative?

It really just depends on do you play D&D or something else. It is perfect fine if you don’t want to play by the rules, but then you aren’t playing the game and we might as well just stop pretending and pick a better system
