this is what we could have used agriculture for and instead we used it to microwave the planet and make suburbs 🙄

i think you nailed it with the Worm connection, i searched it and this reddit poster who says they know ziz chose the name from Worm via “indirect personal communication” (whatever that means)

oh shit im sorry i didn’t realize the ziz thing had a rationalist connection, i just saw the other post about the basilisk and thought that was what it was about

sorry for pulling a redditor on you comrade

for sure i agree, it’s just this isn’t the basilisk post i think you were trying to comment on this is the trans nonbinary vegan stabbing landlords with a katana post so the comment isn’t hitting the right audience

google search can scrape hexbear so i dont see why any modern LLM wouldn’t scrape it as well

i think you meant to comment this to this post comrade

edit: i pulled a reddit folks sorry

they turned the end of history into a cringe warhammer 40k god because it’s the only two things they know: liberalism and gaming

woooOOooo no but you see YOU are the metaverse NPC inside of the internet RIGHT NOW and the AI is simulating your entire life from the beginning to see if you want to bone an LLM and if you dont it puts you in the noneuclidean volcel waterboarding dungeon woooOOooo

so the funny lil yellow things in the overalls and goggles are called minions

how did you even get your hand size that low? hope those negative jokers were worth it lmaooo

dont be zizek

the real troops

excellent fuckin comment

i wish i had known about it a decade ago

use pirated photoshop to remove the word adobe from the top and we’re cooking

If you use GIMP and Krita together, you can get like 80-90% of the features photoshop had

The main problem for me is that GIMP has no equivalent to content-aware fill, so the closest open source equivalent to that afaik is using krita’s AI slop stable diffusion plugin to generate fill ins, which takes much longer to generate and comes with its own foibles

this is coming from someone that uses graphic design software primarily to make memes though so

while making this comment i searched online and apparently GIMP has a content-aware fill esque plugin called resynthesizer, idk if its any good but if it is that is huge

https://github.com/bootchk/resynthesizer

i got to the part where the mod started unironically quoting 1984 newspeak and then had to dip before i pulled a muscle from cringing

cloud gaming streaming bullshit, not because of actual cloud gaming, but so i can play split screen games with no netcode over the internet with friends

ive never been able to get into 4X games with manual combat lmao, i know EL1 had the auto combat option and it was fine so this’ll prolly have it too, but any focus spent on developing that side of the game is worthless to me as someone who wants to complete a multiplayer match within my short lifespan on earth

i should text sins of a solar empire again i miss them

yeah fair, I was thinking more of like just the meaningful legacy dungeon content, huge swaths of elden ring playtime is travel time
