Or both! At this point, it's pretty clear most (or all) of U.S. financial institutions have been doing shady/unwise things. Edit: It's funny, both Fox and CNN recently did eerily similar segments on the weakening of the USD and the financial threat from a China/Russia/Iran/Saudi Arabia. Just...

They are finally waking up to the threat.

Really puts it into perspective how shitty USD is compared to something like BTC. BTC is superior in every way but utility. I think that's why mass adoption and increased utility for BTC is such a terrifying concept to the Fed.

Right, certain currency issues aren't ever going away. But the fact that a government can't simply print more BTC when they want to gives BTC an innate advantage over USD. That and its inherently deflationary nature.

I actually agree with you that it's really unlikely we will ever get to the point where we are ditching 3rd party custodians or transaction facilitators in the currency markets. But banks aren't the entire problem, they are only part of the problem. The other part of the currency problem is...

Seems like the strategy is to attack crypto indirectly by attacking all of the exchanges. I guess the idea is if you make crypto hard to buy, you can kill mass adoption

You using 4, or still messing with 3?

GME

LMAO

Probably true. That's why I said "feels like." I hate buying on the back of a big gain, but I have zero doubt we will get back above 60k, so (like you said) buying at 28k isn't chasing.

Buying on the back of a 26% gain in 8 days sure feels like chasing. Buying now feels like you're late to the party. You should have bought 7 days ago. But who the hell knows? It could go up 200% in the next month. Normal rules don't exactly apply in these times...

Yeah, I held every coin I had over the last year and I'm glad I did. But buying at this exact second would feel a lot like chasing

Yep, pretty easy to jailbreak current AI but I agree it wouldn't be helpful with gpt 3. Gpt 4 or Bing however...

That's a long article lol. You happen to know if they are ever intending on releasing it to the general public, similar to what they did with GPT3? Or is 4 always going to be for paying customers only?

So general public only has access to chat gpt 4 through its integration in Bing ATM, right?

anyone with crypto still on an exchange, esp binance, should be advised

Dude that's so much better than the shit I just generated trying out Midjourney lol. Not sure why yours looks so much better than mine. Ok I'm going to read some of that stuff you posted- obviously my prompt writing sucks

Honestly getting close would be good enough in this case. With the two I tried, I put in a prompt like: "fantasy art in the style of Keith Parkinson of a group of 4 adventurers fighting off a hoard of monsters in front of a massive gate." Or something similar. What I got was completely...

I fucked around with 1 or 2 of those image generators trying to see if I could use them to illustrate a fantasy RPG I'm making. Honestly had zero luck with it. Everything Looked like shit. Maybe I was doing prompts wrong. Any of you who have messed around with midjourney think it could be...

PF2 or PF1? Edit: Never mind looks like it is only available on PF2

Yeah, FWIW I never said anything about OpenAI fucking anyone, including Google. What I said was that the emergence of useful AI and how it can be integrated into search engines (among other things) will fuck Google if they fail to adapt very quickly. Like you mentioned, everything I'm reading...

No idea how credible Paul Buchheit is, but this definitely caught my eye: Gmail creator warns Google is 'only a year or two away from total disruption' because of AI like ChatGPT I'll leave it to others to argue about the difficulty of implementing ai into a search engine, but I guess my point...

Oh I know they have ai, but from what I've read they are very behind. Also it seems like the very nature of how ai is used would likely destroy their current business model. I'm no expert though, just going off things I'm reading

After messing around with AI stuff for the past month, my feeling is Google is going to be fucked in the near future unless they have a super secret AI program nobody knows about.

Agree with your first point about the poignancy, but completely disagree with your second point about it being just as emmy likely. Sadly, being trendy and topical is a big factor in awards like the Emmys/Oscars these days, and there just isn't anything avant-garde or trendy about a normal...

Did the same number with my wife. She was like, I can't tell if he's going to kill Ron Swanson or kiss him. And I was like well, could be both... I'd probably survive for a while in an apocalypse, but I'd definitely kill a lot of innocent people

I like the show and that was a well done episode, but it honestly killed the momentum of the show for me. It was like tossing a slow song into a party mix. Slow songs are fine, but we've all been to that party where the guy controlling the music fucks up the flow by putting on a song...

Apparently he's never played dnd...

Like others have said, the 70% seems totally reasonable to me. How many copies of Monopoly do you think these guys sell a year?

I've been off eq emu for a few years now but I'm giving this server a shot. Plan to 3 box, but I can't remember what I need to do that... WinEQ? EQWin? MQ? What are people using these days- i.e. what do I need to get? Edit: Nevermind- a few minutes playing and I remembered what I needed...

Devastating fumbles and criticals are important imo for a few reasons. One, like @Dr.Retarded said, I think it's important for the lowliest Hobbit to at least have a shot at getting that super lucky shot and taking down a foe that should technically be out of his league. Two, they really do...

Yep- I get that D&D bundles a bunch of elements into the concept of hitpoints. I just think there is a better way. One that results in quicker combat and prevents numbers bloat.

I totally get that. But I think it *should* be statistically dangerous for any character (PC or NPC) to engage in combat. The more attackers you go up against (i.e. the more attack rolls you face), the more risky it is. I've never liked the idea of lengthy combat, where two people with axes...

Always liked this system. I designed similar crit charts in my own system. For spells too.

Haven't done a deep dive, but at first glance it seems like Wizards is doing what they should have done in the first place: put some protections in place for proprietary content going forward, but leave 3rd party content engineered under the previous ogl alone. 100% guarantee you there were...

For the record, I have no issue with WoTC/Hasbro trying to make money. I have a game system myself that I hope to publish one day, and I would definitely like to make money with it. That said, there are lots of ways to monetize and make money. WoTC has chosen the worst way possible by trying...

Time for the IP lawyers to make some money

We believe that any interpretation that the OGL 1.0 or 1.0(a) were intended to be revocable or able to be deauthorized is incorrect, and with good reason. We were there.

Even more reason to drop dnd for other options.
