If you have a computer and graphics card you could try some local llms. They are pretty awesome and you get to keep your days. I use oobabooga and stable diffusion with Silly Tavern as the glue to hold it together. I get model cards from character Hub

What’s the costume? I’ll tell you real quick if it’s offensive. Go for it.

People used spears as pikes and braced against earth to kill mammoths. Throwing stuff is OP as well.
- Comment on Do you actually care about your friend's new baby, vacation abroad or similar life events or are you just being nice? 5 weeks ago:
Well I look at it like this: I don’t really care that much personally about my friends mundane things, but I do care about mine. I think that there isn’t a reason for them to care about my mundane things, but I enjoy having my mundane things listened to. I like that reciprocity, so I made an effort to listen and ask questions that show I’m engaged in the conversation. I try to express empathy by saying when a situation sounds tough or fun. I have noticed that “showing up” for the conversation is what our friends want a lot of the time, and that’s what we want as well a lot of the time. I have also noticed that after a few sessions of “showing up”, I can actually get engaged and move beyond just showing up. I have a buddy who has a sick grandma, and the first few mentions of her I kinda had the same thoughts, like, I don’t care about this lady, why should I listen. I showed up anyways and it led to some interesting conversation about the nature of mental illness because she was remembering very vivid details from her past and that led to some interesting convos about all that. I think that being able to find the enjoyment in a small talk conversation is definitely a skill, but it is rewarding in both your interpersonal relationships and in learning new things through unexpected exposure to new concepts. As a fellow autist, I’m pretty information driven, but neurotypical people, I think, are more feelings driven. The small talk stuff is super important to them and they put that up front first, I guess to judge your character? I’m not sure why, but I have noticed better interactions after I have engaged in small talk. It really is a trainable skill and when you get good at small talk, it can be enjoyable!
- Comment on Fields of Mistria is one of the most impressive games I've ever played 1 month ago:
I do agree that being closed source is a detractor to the game, but Stardew is also closed source. The comment, to me, implied that Stardew is open source, lol. The point seems orthogonal to a comparison critique of the inspiration game. Unless we are implying that games should be open source, complete, and available through other platforms generally and critique games from that point of view. I’m curious if there is any games that exist that fit that description? A game that is a cozy, charming farm simulator, is open source (GPL V3 if I can have my way), is in a source forge that would put it in a more mature development state, and is available pre-compiled outside of steam? That would be a game to behold. Perhaps if the developers see this traction, they may choose to implement some of these ideas. I think the game looks cute. I’ll have to take a look.
- Comment on YSK there is a software that blocks remote connection tools used by scammers! 1 month ago:
Pihole runs on a 10-15 dollar computer (raspberry pi) and blocks anything you want, and is free as in freedom software. It is also zero cost.
- Comment on Anon takes the welding pill 1 month ago:
You have to do your work outside and either standing or kneeling, and it gets hot as hell because of the heat of the welding. Sometimes you’re in vessels. It seems miserable. 82K isn’t even that much money for the work, in my opinion. Specialty workers can make more but still…
- Comment on How do I tame my mustache for handlebar style? 1 month ago:
Beard wax the 'stache into the handlebar style. Use trimmers to keep the mustache away from your lip, directly above the lip line.
- Comment on UPDATE: Here is the final design of the Humorless Toaster, that this wonderful community helped me pick yesterday! (Needless to say one of the previous versions was unintentionally problematic) 2 months ago:
It reminds me of “Davie” from Adventure time! Good deal! Looks fun and humorless, in a funny way. external-content.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F…

Toaster 1 looks like Hitler. Don’t use toaster 1.
- Comment on 🥲🥲🤡 4 months ago:
The comedy is created by subversion of your expectation that college degreed people would not be working at a fast food place. The interaction is meant to be read initially as a neutral status interaction and then slides into a upper to lower status interaction as the post reveals that the answer to the implied question from the customer is that the cashier has an art degree. The initial humor is at the expense of the cashier. The next part of the joke reveals that the customer is, in fact, of true lower status of the two because they don’t understand the horror of a world that will result from devaluing those with art knowledge, exemplified in the joke as those with art degrees. The art degree here is a stand in for our capacity for human empathy and connection. What fools we would be without it. What greater fools could we become if we actively refused to cultivate it. We could become evil, and that fact, that true evil that can exist and we could have blindness to it or even become it, is the comedy here. The banality of the customer here, the interaction, the shittiness of it all, that is the comedy. How this helps, it was not generated in any way by AI and it’s fuckin sad that I have to say that.

I played Pokemon Red on an emulator on a night shift at work and it was a pretty awesome experience. I can’t imagine the idea of live service games existing. I think there’s something to be said about connectivity and discoverability but yeah man. Yeah.
