  • That was always my assumption of the end game. You have the system prompts, an advertising bias prompt layer over top, then the user prompts.

    “Naturally worded” advertising that doesn’t immediately appear to be advertising and searching using natural language always seemed to be the biggest use cases for LLMs to me, considering they can’t be relied on to output accurate info.





  • Garry nuked the Facepunch forums

    How in the FUCK is this the first time I’m hearing about this? It’s been over a decade since I browsed them last, but those were a massively important component of the whole Garry’s Mod community.

    I think a big part of the failure, beyond the absolutely massive amount of mismanagement, is that a lot of the stuff that made GM awesome has had it’s “lunch ate” by other development engines and sandbox game systems. Facepunch was never going to be big enough to fully challenge Second Life, or Roblox, or Unity, etc. They had a niche that they should have focused on.

    On top of that, there’s a problem that commonly happens with games that have deep modding communities that get “sequels”: All of the awesome stuff that the community spent years building on the last game won’t work with the new one, so there’s not any real reason to switch until the amount of content in the new game (from the devs or the community) passes a critical threshold.

    And then changing the underlying creation tools so drastically from the last game by jumping from Lua to C#? Yeah, let’s just throw away most of the skills the community built up!

    What a shitshow.







  • I think it’s the shooter of Charlie Kirk. But that’s purely based off the mention of Erika Kirk.

    Calling any court he’s tried in a purely religiously motivated one is fucking rich though.

    As far as I know, he was caught red handed. No room for doubt. The law isn’t void just because he killed someone the world is better without, lol.

    At least with Luigi there’s a bunch of extenuating circumstances that create some plausible deniability. This is just “This guy killed someone I think needed to die, so the rule of law shouldn’t apply!”



  • As others have suggested, the RE1 remake is great. I don’t know how well it would perform on the Steam Deck, but there is a mod that increases the resolution of the pre-rendered backgrounds that is great as well. Probably won’t make much of a difference on the Deck’s screen, but might be nice if you have it attached to a larger one.

    Any sort of proof of stake or weighting of power is game-able and abuse-able. Even 1 person gets 1 vote just results in a black market of people exchanging theirs for some other thing of value. It always comes down to a division between those who “have” and those who don’t. Even simply having more power through length of time invested creates power dynamics.

    That doesn’t mean that things can’t get better or we shouldn’t try, but it does mean that it’s something that can’t just be waved away with magic phrases.
