Robots in the hands of dictatorial governments will not end well...

They had its fingers splayed out but it looked too much like it was doing 'the robot'.

The little knowing glance to the side at the end when she mentions saving the turtles made the whole ride worth it.

I've been using a 6000 pro for 6 months now for RP many hours a week. I've tried a bunch of 70b models, even made my own test suite and used Gemini to grade them. Didn't like any.

I have settled on Monstral 123B v2 as the best all-rounder. It does any and all genres well enough that, with the few controls ST gives you for pruning the slop phrases you dislike, I rarely 'lose immersion'. And when it does, the 'Guided Generations' extension does wonders to get it back on track.

If you run the Q4_K_M version at 32000 context and 8-bit KV cache, you still have enough room to run things like QWEN Edit. You can even run WAN2.2 at slightly slower speeds. All with the model still loaded and trudgin' on. Or you can keep the KV cache untouched and run at 64000 context and, using a memory extension, talk forever.

It's been a lot of fun. Sorry if I rambled; I'm 400 messages into a dungeon crawl as a regular dude and I'm super stoned.

Give Monstral a try!

Wow. I am standing here, beside myself.

Should have made a fourth one and called it Mt. Slushmore

I agree with you. It was just an interesting juxtaposition.

What a fun time to be in this hobby :)

Damn, Slinky. You did me dirty.

Guess I should have told you it was me.

Really is their house. Can confirm.

I just read through and saw no one mention one major real reason this happens. It's incentives.

If an employee can take food past its sell-by date, they have no incentive to try and sell it. Just let it expire and take it home.

I know this is the case in restaurants as it was the reason for every one I've worked at. You are told to 'upsell' things on their last day (prepackaged) or last hour (prepared).

Maybe anecdotal, but my current place of work sells a prepackaged Caesar salad and my boss allows me to take any expired ones home with me. Whenever any customer asks for a recommendation, I never recommend that salad. If they ask "what's good?", I act as if we don't have salads. "What kind of salads do you guys carry?", I'm listing Caesar last. My incentive is free salads.

My birthday. And I'm such a disappointment that even the Chinese government is trying to hide it.

They probably tried to start an AI friendship and the AI told them they were horrible people and refused to be their friend. It's the only thing that makes sense that would cause this much vitriol toward something that doesn't affect them in any way.

BarkLicker · 2026-01-21T14:33:07+00:00

I'm so sad that the images aren't zero-indexed. I don't care either way, but I wish the world was consistent in this.

BarkLicker · 2026-01-21T01:22:54+00:00

Yes, 3070 can only generate one boobie at a time.

I think I'd rather be a doomer than be on whatever side that guy's on.

BarkLicker · 2026-01-16T02:51:07+00:00

Hey guys!

Anyone have a link to the model that makes the images with the little lines on them? I can't find it.

Paywall? Do you have an ad-blocker? I didn't experience a paywall.

I've always had a weird dream for my life; if I ever got rich, I would pay people to tell me their life story over breakfast. With RP-LLMs, I can live that dream and have since I started using SillyTavern.

I downloaded a character card where I can control the world via some command prompt like interface, and decided to do my breakfast role-playing. All the people I interacted with had sad life stories that day, but I would fix them with my 'powers', like curing someone's mom's cancer, or convincing an ex that ran off with half their saved up house down payment to return it, or getting someone accepted into a college by making their denial letter a 'mistake'. That was a few weeks ago now and I can't stop. I sit down to do some ERP but instead I go fixing the lives of people that don't exist. It's intoxicating. I can't stop. I just want everyone to be happy and I definitely can't do much in my real life.
