I kinda feel like the writing is on the wall now. We're seeing a spike in insider trading as everyone gets out before a crash, countries are instituting rules that make it functionally impossible to be profitable because AI bros were banking on literally zero externalities, etc.

FYI: Boycotting HP merch/books/etc isn’t “censorship” it is *boycotting* because of what the receipts are used for, in the same way boycotting Starbucks over Gaza is boycotting not censorship.

I did a #Vket booth with @fuopy.com and @blurrywal.bsky.social as Kuté Muté! ✨ it’s packed with loads of stuff -and- a mocap performance (at just under 10mb), with a few big n smol secrets sprinkled in. you can find it in the vrchat world Argdella Rediscovered: Memento to learn what it’s all about!

Lmao when a staff member subscribes to a block list made by a troll account and ends up blocking 310,700+ users, all because the majority of the users of bluesky hold the rational opinion that ai is total shit and shouldn't be used for any reason. Ai is ruining the site, and the world. Fuck ai.
A screenshot of clearsky, showing that the bluesky staff member, who goes by Why, has subscribed to only one blocking list, one made by a known troll that searches for users that are against ai and add them to this moderation list.

I'm so sorry I can't stop laughing. OpenAI, the company built on stealing literally the entire internet, is crying because DeepSeek may have trained on the outputs from ChatGPT. They're crying their eyes out. What a bunch of hypocritical little babies. Cry more, freaks. www.ft.com/content/a0df...
OpenAI says it has evidence China’s DeepSeek used its model to train competitor
White House AI tsar David Sacks raises possibility of alleged intellectual property theftOpenAI says it has found evidence that Chinese artificial intelligence start-up DeepSeek used the US company’s proprietary models to train its own open-source competitor, as concerns grow over a potential breach of intellectual property.
The San-Francisco-based ChatGPT maker told the Financial Times it had seen some evidence of ‘distillation’, a technique used by developers to obtain better performance on smaller models by using outputs from larger, more capable models. This allows them to achieve similar results on specific tasks at a much lower cost.
OpenAI declined to comment further on details of its evidence. Its terms of service state users cannot “copy” any of its services or “use output to develop models that compete with OpenAI”.

The freedom to pilfer, steal, and plunder creativity the UK is formally going to give to AI companies is absolutely staggering. If you're in the UK, take this stand right now. This is a fence that you can't put back up if it passes you, and it will kill the UK creative sector.

"Buy me Slaughter for the NES or go to hell!" This is not bearably playable but... it's a tile-based FPS on the NES with elevation, and it uses NO MAPPERS. This is just the raw 1983 hardware

Does anyone know how to do a reverse projection mapped texture bake? By that I mean, start with a detailed scene with dense foliage. Then place invisible quads rotated randomly throughout the trees. These quads will be used to sample colors as seen from a specific point in the scene. #gamedev

Fun fact about the original Kuté Muté booth: I 3D modeled it using Hammer and Counter-Strike: Source! Afterwards we cleaned things up and atlassed in Blender. But the quick turnaround of the Hammer workflow made it really fun to iterate. #vrchat #vket

The banner is a lot more awkward. Stored at 3000x1000, but displays at 598x150 on desktop. Cropping on desktop is somewhere in the middle. Mobile sees more of the image. This is the best guide I could come up with:

fuopy @fuopy.com · 16/11/2024
Timeline avatars are 42x42 pixels at standard dpi. So if you want to shoot for pixel perfect: source image should be 42x42, then export at 4x with nearest-neighbor scaling. It'll look good on mobile and also when displayed larger.
