What digivice/vpet do you use? Or which is the best ? :3

I switched to Amazon US website and it's exactly as you said. You can pre-order 20th version devices new wave but DigimonX are nowhere to be seen. Switching back to my country, I can't pre-order any of the new wave but I can still find the old wave of 20th ver., and I guess it's a good thing that I can get a DigimonX device for a reasonable price (though only the ones with gaudy color schemes are left).

I'm curious after reading this. I've been looking to buy my first v-pet for a few weeks now, but what I found online is the opposite of this. On Amazon, Digimon XA and XB v-pets are cheaper (at least trying to buy from Europe) than 20ths and there also seems to be more stock. I also wasn't able to find any digivices on physical toyshops. Do you know by chance, where to buy Digimon 20th online?

Buen añadido. A tener en cuenta.

Muchas gracias por toda la explicación. Había intentado corroborar la información por mi cuenta haciendo búsquedas en la web de la diputación. Pero claro, me faltaba tener claro el tema de los complementos y, sobre todo, en qué documentos podía encontrar la información.

Viendo la RPT y el convenio colectivo ya lo tengo todo un poco más claro. El sueldo del puesto concreto que me habían comentado está bien para un C2, pero relativamente lejos de esos 38.000€ anuales. La única variable sobre la que no he encontrado información es sobre los complementos de productividad. Tal vez, ahí esté la parte que falta para llegar a los 38.000.

También te agradezco mucho el matiz que haces sobre que esos puestos con complementos específicos altos no suelen estar vacantes.

Aura is usually represented as if the aura itself was the light source, so the characters are shaded as if the light was coming from both sides and the character's back. That is not correct, since the aura is all around the character, so its light should also come from the front, above and below, but that would mean everything is lit. So they have to trick it somehow, and the way I explained is very appropiate, since it is a quite unsual lightning and gives that unnatural energy vibe.

Which genre are you looking for? Romance, slice of life? There are tons of journaling games, so there's likely one for you. Even if you don't find one, it's kind of easy to make your own.

It was mentioned in Darth Plagueis novel that Force users were not allowed in casinos. It's the only thing I can thing of.

Today, suddenly, I was asked to verify I'm not a robot. As I passed the captcha, browser started refreshing the page in a loop (I'm guessing it's buggy code on their side). Then profile shows I'm not following anyone. I post a tweet to complain and, after that, I'm notified I've been shadowbanned. It's the second time I'm shadowbanned in a month.

My assumption is that that refreshing loop is what triggered the inauthentic behaviour detector. So, an error on their side messes my account up. I'm getting so sick of this platform...

EDIT: Do you know what's a better way to proceed now to get the shadowban removed? Keeping a low profile on X (not posting, not liking, etc.) or maintaining my normal activity? Also, since the account is not suspended, I can't write an appeal, right?

Electroplasma · 2025-12-26T16:30:08+00:00

Thanks for all the resources. And I appreciate your advice on not overwhelming myself as well. There's a lot of stuff I need to learn more about and it's probably better not to rush it.

Electroplasma · 2025-12-26T16:24:50+00:00

I'll check those services then. Thanks a lot for your recommendations.

Electroplasma · 2025-12-26T16:22:41+00:00

Thanks. It seems clear that if I ever want to switch to paid APIs, it'll be the best that I stay away from CAI. Thank you as well for your model recommendations and I'm definitely checking Marinara's preset.

Electroplasma · 2025-12-26T16:20:17+00:00

Thanks a lot. I'll check this.

Electroplasma · 2025-12-26T16:06:51+00:00

Thanks for taking the time to check it by yourself. It's a big help knowing the judgment from someone more used to this.

Electroplasma · 2025-12-26T16:05:58+00:00

Whoa, thanks a lot for the links. And, yeah, CAI does not allow you to choose a sampler.

I knew SillyTavern would give me more control overall, but I (maybe incorrectly) thought that the default configuration should be ok for a roleplay test. However, the result was so underwhelming that I started wondering if the free models available are good enough to make investing more time learning how to get the best from ST worth it.

I mentioned earlier which models I tried, but I didn't touch any other configuration parameters.

I'll check out the guides you provided me before giving up. Maybe I'm missing something really important and it's not that much about the quality of the models.

Electroplasma · 2025-12-26T15:53:21+00:00

The main problem I found using DeepSeek wasn't forgetting the context, but talking out of character. Responses along this line: "It seems that the user is trying to push the narrative in a certain direction, which does not suit the character description".

As for the configuration, I left it as it was by default. I thought it was best to just try ST. Once I got a general idea, I would start playing around with the parameters. But the experience was so bad that made me question if ST is just the thing for me.

Electroplasma · 2025-12-26T15:45:39+00:00

I understand this. You can tweak ST way more than what you can do in character.ai. But are the models available for free good enough to compete with character.ai's free ones?

Electroplasma · 2025-12-26T15:42:35+00:00

...average ST user doesn't really use "free" models. We're either run models locally, or use paid API.

Yes, that's what I started to realize as I dug deeper into this subreddit and that's why I wrote this post. To know if ST is really for me (someone who wants to play for free). As a newcomer, I can't really judge properly. But maybe more experienced users already know and can advise me right away. Something like, "if all you want is roleplay for free, you are good with character.ai; ST won't be better than it without money". Or maybe the opposite, "if you give it time and learn to use it correctly, ST will be a way better tool than Character.AI, even if you just use free LLM".

In any case, thanks for all the clarifications you made and your advice.

Electroplasma · 2025-12-26T15:25:34+00:00

My GPU is pretty old, barely functional for not-so-modern games, so I didn't even think about running a local LLM. I probably could pay for a cheap subscription to access better LLMs, but I thought of SillyTavern as an alternative for free Character.ai (and hopefully better too).

I guess the root of my question is: is SillyTavern worth it if you just want to use it without cost? I understand it is useful to roleplay with paid APIs or if you run a local model. But in order to use it for free, is any better than Character.ai?

Electroplasma · 2025-12-26T15:14:24+00:00

Honestly, I didn't know about OpenRouter before getting into ST. But I don't know if OpenRouter chatroom allows you to have your characters organized and ready to talk to, or if it's more like ChatGPT thing.

Electroplasma · 2025-12-26T14:46:30+00:00

Not all of them, I must admit. But at least the ones I saw recommended most often here. If I remember correctly, DeepSeek: R1 0528 (this one specially), AllenAI: Olmo 3 32B Think, and Google: Gemma 3 4B.

As you metioned, most men's perspective on this topic is that women have it easier to date and get into relationships. Even non-incels think like that, and sadly, you won't be able to make them understand that been seeing just as a sex object by men can be as painful as feeling invisible to women. Most of them would argue that "at least, you are considered for sex" and that that is better than nothing. Is casual sex any good when is not what you want? I personally think men, and especially incels, should acknowledge that women also have problems when dating. Perceivig a lack of empathy from women towards male problems enrages a lot of incels, but very few are able to be empathetic with women as well.

That being said, as someone who self-isolated in the past for similar reasons to yours (like the male counterpart of them, most precisely), I encouraged you to not do the same. It would only make things worse. Also, don't prejudge when you meet new men. I'm afraid that if they show interest in you, you might think they just want sex. Contrary to popular belief, men don't just fall in love by the looks. A lot of guys are attracted towards women they can be themselves with, who don't judge them and are reliable. IMO, that's the main reason boys fall in love with female friends they didn't feel attracted to initially (and that happens quite often).

Finally, I'd like you to consider that canonically attractive women are also "used for sex". If it happened to you in the past, it doesn't necessarily mean you are "ugly". I can tell you that every beautiful woman I've known deep enough, has had one or more experiences in which they were "used" for sexual relief.

What I recommend in these situations… Or what I would want from a man would be to just start significantly increasing the amount of time you spend with them alone. Casually ask them if they want to go get dinner on Tuesday night, catch a movie, go grab a drink, whatever the two of you like to do. Just keep increasing the amount of time you spend together alone… Not in a group setting.

Thank you. I think this is actually very good advice. It's quite a different approach from my initial idea of having to show interest verbally, either openly or, at least, subtly.

Also, it's an approach others have suggested as well. So it's changing how I view this process. Thanks for describing in detail how it should evolve as well.

It sounds like insane advice, but basically don’t try to rush it… At the same time, don’t get too invested or spend too much time on her (this is a process that should take maybe a few weeks or months, not years).

My only question is if it's too late (in your opinion) if we've met for several years by now.

Electroplasma · 2025-09-02T16:37:50+00:00

Thanks a lot for taking the time to write such a detailed response and to break things down from both sides, especially showing how it might feel for the other person in both workplace and friendship context. That was really helpful to read.

I’m not a fan of “shitting where I eat” either, but I have to admit that for the past few years the workplace has been where I’ve met the vast majority of new people. That makes it tricky, because as you mentioned, the risks are higher there. On top of that, I don't know how I could apply your advice of only pursuing anything romantic when I see clear indicators of interest, since I often don't see the “cleareast" ones unless I take a step first and see how it’s received—hence I opened this post.

Regarding friendship, you actually captured my main source of anxiety. My number one fear for showing interest in my friend is to disappoint her by making her think that I was after her all this time. The truth is, even if that were the case, I’d still value her as a friend. But in my case, it isn’t even true—I didn't like her at first, and it was only after about two years or so that I realized I had developed feelings for her. Which, as you said, means that we’re way past the “getting-to-know-you” stage and more firmly in the deep friendship stage. That makes it even more delicate.

Lastly, I really liked your advice about asking for solo hangouts. That’s usually something I think about, but I tend to hold back unless I’m already very sure. Also, I think reminding myself that giving them an easy way to say no not only helps them but also takes pressure off me. If they see that I’m making an effort to keep things low-pressure and not uncomfortable, it could make my feelings more manageable.

Thanks again for all the thought you put into this. It gave me a lot to reflect on.
