Reminds me of Wendell Berry or even Cormac Mccarthy's writing. Great piece.

I made a DeluxePaint/Amiga LORA you can use with Stable Diffusion/FLUX a while back for the lulz[1]

I also used that LORA and some video models to try to make a little movie with the same style[2]

Here's a guide on how to generate LORAs too if you're interested[3]

Finally, there's a DeluxePaint clone someone released that is pretty cool to play around with[4]

yeah a social _game_, not a commodity pork bellies futures market.

Walmart wasn't created late enough in the 2nd gilded age to effectively lobby the government against having any rules

when have we ever defined gaming/gambling as 'a thing where the house takes a rake' ? I don't understand this argument and it always feels disingenuous when brought up.

yeah who wants marginally regulated oligarchs -- Give me fully unregulated criminals!

No game loop feels impossible unless you're just making a movie you click through...

Game loops should be invisible as once a player can see or sense them it breaks the immersion.

I almost never finished games even back in the 90s/2000s. I think it's because of how long they are compared to movies and even tv shows. You also (especially back in the day) had to 'rewatch' the same part over and over until you could beat it

How do we know we're not doing that based on our memories and reaction to external stimuli though?

I mean we don't know right? Feels hubrisy

and the pendulum swings again the other way...

I would like you to release this please

come on you can blame whatever the program is using for randomness still

wait what if we start on a day DST starts or ends????

you got yer loiscence?

I'm in if I can embed it into my forearm

How is that different from roulette?

I mean enforcing the laws on the books would be a good start. Corruption quickly breeds more and more corruption if it isn't rooted out and punished. Everyone who isn't corrupt starts losing and the benefits of not being corrupt evaporate

> “Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.” ― Jean-Paul Sartre

Thanks

fair point

have anything to read more about the power talk stuff?

Emacs would be a pretty badass "OS" for LLM agents to use... has anyone explored and written something up on that yet? Perhaps emacs commands would give agents even more power than just shell commands ?

can't afford a subscription

yeah I agree -- There are countless examples with almost every invention of someone else who got there first but couldn't market it successfully at least partially because of timing.

I mean it was the only way to use MidJourney when it released, which is why it's so popular and part of the midjourney community

I'd like to hear your comments on what happened from your POV

This is very cool thanks for sharing

100% agree that is a great use case for it I wouldn't think twice about. My 'voice' isn't relevant to the real estate agent place.
