one big plus of being able to fly and having a long tongue is that i can steal donuts from your unguarded plates
@nixCraft So yeah. Pretty good idea tbh.
@nixCraft For all the hate we give CloudFlare and certain CDNs, them rolling out the AI hall of mirrors thing gives another idea.
What if they put interchangeable complete nonsense into everyone's web request headers simultaneously. Interchangeably by hour or day.
You could poison a looooot of these bot models and make the process of correcting them tedious and painful.
@nixCraft Given how much LLMs and reinforcement learning models rely on Bayesian with spotty overfitting checks:
It'll throw off the model if this gets packaged into a meme and goes viral. And you can use that to have them spout out the funniest shit with enough quorum.

a dragon is just a big flappy nuisance generator with built-in barbecue mode.

Cecided on a whim to try 3D modelling a character! I also was thinking of doing it low poly to make it easier on myself, but ended up getting a bit carried away lol
It's also nice to think of the seams of a model for texturing applied to, like, actually being seams on a pooltoy.
I also don't know how to actually *render* the image, as it just looks like a drab grey thing when I do, so this is just a screenshot of it being as good as I was hoping for.
Still learning! There's still a long way to go, like weight painting is still very wonky for me and sometimes it doesn't look good when I bend the skeleton. This was also mostly just made on the basis of like: "oh a bendy bones option? that sounds like a good thing for a pooltoy, *click*" and seeing what happens to the model.

The name of the poster here got cut off, but appears to be "Ringo - AxlTheHunter08", so credit where it's due.
@anthracite Anyway, of all places to find futurism discourse this week, for me it's been the work Kat Kingsley put into the Warframe 1999 storyline.
She took the huge mess of dystopian space crap that that universe is and made it relatable by saying: yeah, no matter how far flung and crazy things get, people are still people.
That's been sitting with me the past several weeks. It's the message I needed, really.
@anthracite That all said: futurism is incremental. There's no magic space armada in the next few years, unless it's some fascist vanity project that looks like they spaced a Cybertruck.
But things like smartphones, internet buildout globally, and all of the cool projects I see people putting in VRC give me much more hope for our society. In that: there's an appetite for not-terrible change, when you ignore futurism grifter guys.
It's slower and more boring, but hey, that's fine.
