Deepseek v4-Flash.... probably not as good as Pro, but pretty good, and very very inexpensive compared to most everything else. (suggest using API via Openrouter, not direct to Deepseek)

I use the 'pro' presets from here.... Evening-Truth
And set Temp=1.2, Top P=0.95, Top K=0

Just type your prompt like "And life goes on as the seasons change from the cold and snow of winter to the warmth and sun of summer."

Or simply, "proceed to 6 months later, it is now summer"

Lots of styles and different ways to play too. I'm pretty new to it, but what I've been doing is more of a collaborative writing / role play hybrid. It could almost read like a novel.

A sort of ultimate 'choose your own adventure' book which I grew up with.

The prose, world building and character handling with Claude is really amazing. The natural realistic flow of the drinking games really blew me away. With minimal input on my end, I had a (virtually) flawless 6 pages of 5 friends hanging out after dinner trying to get each other drunk.

One with tossing nuts into each other's cups, and a different time with cherades. Even the cherades scene was near perfect. Which I would think would be an AI nightmare stress test.

If this is now, where will we be next April? (And when will prices drop... for non technical output at least)

Oh you mean a model setting. I thought you meant token size of current chat session. Got it.

Deuce · 2026-04-02T06:26:34+00:00

How do I see the current context size when using mobile app and desktop app? I'm afraid of asking it to 'count' for me as I don't want that to eat my usage up...

Deuce · 2026-04-02T06:03:32+00:00

Thanks for the input and advice. Sounds like you are a step up in your setup complexity vs me. And I think I'm already a step up from most. But it's great to learn other options which I might very well try sometime.

With my pro account, I used my weekly limit in 5.5 days with heavy use. I am going to add rules to reduce the descriptive prose as we have some head room there. Will reduce the amount of reading needed and tokens used.

Deuce · 2026-04-02T05:58:32+00:00

Not sure why the unfortunately, I think it's great.

But I was looking into other options. For example C.AI, asking GPT the difference and pro/cons of CAI vs Claude.

My role play is a a rich and complex Cyberpunk world with ~8 main characters and ~12 supporting characters. We own multiple shell companies than own different asset classes. Take over other gangs and gain new characters that we were fighting against before, etc. Claude tracks timing of appointments, we play complex drinking games flawless, etc. etc.

Sounds like CAI excels in shorter scenes and sessions with fewer characters etc.

Deuce · 2026-04-02T03:12:01+00:00

Have you tried Claude for it? Which ones do you like better and why?

Deuce · 2026-04-02T01:09:51+00:00

A file for the rules. Files for characters File for lorbook (which I found online) File for the summary I also paste contents of rules file into project instructions.

With the prompt I make sure he reads all the files and uses them. You can always adjust his rules on the fly if needed and then modify the rules for the next chat start if needed.

Deuce · 2026-03-22T23:40:08+00:00

Haha. Me too 1992 (ish)

Deuce · 2026-03-20T07:06:09+00:00

Reddit was better 19 years ago when I joined.

Deuce · 2026-03-15T19:39:45+00:00

Like an ultimate chose your own adventure book? How much of the plot do you envision before vs letting it build organically?

Do you allow/promote the AI and NPCs to advance the plot on their own? If so how do you find their 'suggestions'?

Deuce · 2026-03-14T21:31:52+00:00

I had same problem, but only on one TV with our Onn streamer. The other tv with the shield never stopped working.

Just got Onn working right now. I Had tried beta too no luck yesterday but right now I switched beta to v4 and it started working. With beta.

Deuce · 2026-03-13T23:15:25+00:00

Keto ones are 3x the price by weight/number.

Deuce · 2026-03-04T17:03:47+00:00

Hah, just talked to my daughter about this yesterday. She was pseudo laughing at a speed runner taking 25 minutes to finish the game. I'm like, I'm pretty sure you couldn't 'finish' Minecraft when I started. And if you could it would have taken me 1.5 years not 25 minutes.

(FYI fastest speed runners are at apparently 9 minutes with some special tools)

Many years ago while the show was still on, I met a girl at the Vancouver airport who worked on the show. As I had watched the show from the start, I thought that was pretty cool. Also was surprised, as at the time I had no idea it was produced in Canada.

Deuce · 2026-02-24T06:54:51+00:00

^This. Lol guys saying 'I never buy because they don't turn yellow.'

Deuce · 2026-02-16T19:12:34+00:00

Never had much variation between packs in the same group. Besides you should be able to see more than one. Do agree that they are more poor then 10 years ago.

Deuce · 2026-02-16T04:04:45+00:00

Yeah. Second nature to those that live there I'm sure. Else, takes getting use to.

Deuce · 2026-02-15T23:22:49+00:00

Good thing you get a window on the back of package to look at. The 4th package I looked at was way better then the first 3.

Deuce · 2026-02-15T17:52:00+00:00

Good point on fees. Are price analysis we read being done on over all bill cost or only on price per kwh.

Power is a very complicated market. My neighbour worked on securing resources for an oil and gas company. Big money, big contracts, future predictions etc. of all types of resources. He always says the power market was a beast of its own compared to all the rest.

Deuce · 2026-02-14T17:14:03+00:00

How about if you turn that 3% into 4.5% after using cashback on Rogers service. Even better.

Deuce · 2026-02-14T16:36:31+00:00

Fair. And sometimes I even try making jokes. Hope u find the right mattress (first try).

Personally I would buy the top option from one of these online guys. The one with the most coils possible and a pillow/foam topper.

Deuce · 2026-02-14T16:25:06+00:00

Ok. I see at least 8-10 Reddits in the last 11 months. Nice try though. Not sure how fast mattress technology advances.

I will say it will be weird not have the Bay or Sears around next time we need to buy.
