Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I've probably taken this a bit too far now, but this isn't just a virtual/generated avatar, but drivable at realtime too. I like the idea of a layered audio track that carries its own inferrable video 000
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 02/10/2026It's not _quite_ "you could build that in a weekend", but £0.33B for a not-a-database is fucking insane. 000
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 02/10/2026It's barely 120m records, that don't need to be 'federated' anyway, tho I do have a user-owns/encrypts blockchain-backed system that gives patients complete control. I have experience running a password manager, and have no interest in a crystal ball that snoops on everyone. 100

Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Trained on git commit messages... it's fundamentally passive aggressive and impatient 011
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Well, no answers suggests either a) at least they're not absolutely trivial, or b) they're too obtuse, despite being easy once you know what you're looking for or c) my/image-skeets don't travel :p 000
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Visual pronunciation from any voice \o/ It's not useful for anything, but I think it's cool :) 100
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 24/09/2026It also works for a take on a wordoku, but revealing the full word list turns it into a simple elimination exercise. I'm pretty sure revealing almost half the word list turns it into a deductive challenge, but hard to generalise about so far. 100
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Working on a puzzle generator, if you like this kind of thing, I can't decide if this is too easy :? 100

Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Gets me they can put billions into GTA6, but can't put a couple hundred-k into a modern remaster or remake, and a little more into some dlc. It's such an accessible/portable format :) 010
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Have been listening ad-free since this... holy shit podcasts are so much better when twenty minutes of ads had been cut out 000
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Took way too many attempts at this to finally figure it out [sound on if you're interested and not wearing headphones]. Essentially makes a video into an editable vector (of sorts) cos it _kinda_ teaches an agent how to change/regenerate it, even if metadata was stripped. 100
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 13/09/2026I've been saying Phil Fish was right for years, but it's only now even I realize he was even more right than any of us (except when he wasn't) 000
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Enjoyed Star City for its great direction and acting, but nothing will strain your suspension of disbelief more than everything in the last two episodes, where they might as well have done jazz hands and yelled "magic in spaaaace". 000
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Pretty pleased with this project, came out better than I expected :) 000
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 07/09/2026History Guest is out on Wednesday with Einstein as my first guest! I was trying to find out if AI can make something that isn't slop, tbh the answer is maybe-just-about-sometimes, but I found a lot of these interviews genuinely interesting perspectives. youtu.be/iiZxpH0D1Ewyoutu.beEinstein on Becoming Famous for the Wrong Reasons (And Hating Every Minute of It)YouTube video by Bob 101

Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Since most of the corpo world are a couple of years into uptake, you'd think we'd have seen more "How AI improved my business" from real people in real jobs by now, if it was actually delivering at scale on serious work. 100
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 28/08/2026£70 for 30fps is going to be a struggle cos it gives me motion sickness since getting acclimatised to 60fps+. Hopefully they've got zero input lag or a very soon after release performance mode with potato textures. 000
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 25/08/2026Listening to oldish radio lately, just hit early pandemic radio and laughing at everyone being like wash your hands, will be back to normal in a few weeks. 000
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 25/08/2026...something something protein joke, that I couldn't quite figure out :) 000
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 25/08/2026What just cos I'm oiled up in tight vest in a room full of mirrors and steel bars with 15 other jacked men, all looking at each-others' bodies and being judgemental while grunting and thrusting and giving mostly potato based cooking advice. It's absolutely NOTHING like a night out on canal street. 200
Bob Davies @bobbigmac.bsky.social · 25/08/202618 days later, I finally finished renderering episode 1 (mostly local) and the first few minutes of all other episodes. Totally not worth it but was an interesting experience to explore how scarce/expensive GPUs are right now for i2v+a. 000
