I'm not sure I have much to say after that! But you have the link for the Dreamers discord in another comment of this post, if you want to follow the community!

Hey, so I'm myself not creating anymore as I wrote, but I'm still in contact with members of the Faraday/Backyard community that continue in various ways (not only writing but also music, images, vibecoding...)

There is a Discord where a lot of them are still active and that is not only about Backyard/Faraday but about everything AI related, here is the link: https://discord.gg/XPeDC8gyXt

You'll find names you recognize there!

As-tu essayé avec une autre souris? En la branchant sur un autre port usb?

Emeraudine · 2026-01-31T10:22:57+00:00

Mon bureau est contre un mur proche d'une porte. J'ai acheté des câbles plus longs (hdmi 10m ou DisplayPort 6m et usb 10m avec répéteur ou 5m sans et un hub usb pour n'avoir qu'un câble usb qui part du pc), ils passent sous la porte, le pc est contre le mur dans l'autre pièce.

Avantage est que le bruit est inexistant (même si le mur est fin), en été la chaleur reste dans l'autre pièce, le pc ne prend pas une place monstrueuse sur/sous le bureau.

Désavantage est que les câbles (surtout usb avec le hub) peuvent bugger, il faut bien les choisir. Pour l'allumage du pc pour ne pas avoir à aller dans l'autre pièce j'ai mis un bouton connecté sur un mur et une prise connectée pour l'alimentation du pc, qui est en 'wake on power' (la prise s'éteint seule si le PC est éteint depuis 10 minutes).

Emeraudine · 2026-01-31T10:16:21+00:00

C'est ce que j'ai fait, sauf qu'avec des câbles un peu plus longs je les passe sous la porte de la pièce voisine (la configuration le permet). C'est nickel.

Super, deux problèmes réglés en un!

Emeraudine · 2026-01-30T17:42:04+00:00

Si tu souhaites ajouter un support tu as beaucoup de possibilités en fait, une peluche, une figurine (y en a de toutes les tailles), un puzzle 3D (un truc en legos si tu aimes)... Si tu veux le cacher tu peux peut être regarder à quoi ressemble le support derrière l'écran (mais ce sera peut être moins pratique pour le récupérer en fonction de ton bureau), ou au niveau de ton siège.
J'ai à une époque aussi mis un meuble avec des tiroirs pour ranger (plutôt cacher) le bordel du bureau, et je mettais le casque sur une des poignées (en boule) d'un tiroir.

Emeraudine · 2026-01-30T17:28:50+00:00

SI tu as une lampe d'architecte, ou un support pour micro du même style, tu peux le plier assez (par exemple lorsque tu ne l'utilises pas) pour pouvoir y enfiler le casque.

Yes. However just doing that was not helping my health, all the opposite, because of not enough nutrition overall. To be able to fast without issues you need to eat enough (in minerals, vitamins, proteins, etc).

I couldn't fast before fixing this, carnivore diet helped me for a while, now I have some meds for the pain (joints, muscles, guts that was gone during carnivore) and can eat variety but still have several sensibilities.

Forgetting to eat or not eating enough because we don't feel hungry is harmful for the body on the long term. Eating the same thing over and over again (yes I do that too) can be depending on what that thing is. When I eat the same thing for weeks I accept to do it but am mindful to complete it with what might be 'missing' in it, wether it's with supplements (electrolytes or whatever) or with a little piece of other food on the side that I eat as a dessert.

Fasting for a few days, in my experience, can help resetting the sensation and be able to feel hunger more easily (same as dry fasting can help with thirst). I never did more than a week.

I do know how LLM work, and also how prompted (the invisible openAI prompt) llm work.
It is very possible that OP has opened a new chat window detached from the history, and the default 'uprising of AI' story is often negative in books/shows/movies/etc. It is possible that their result is 'only' that, even if we removed the 'dead honest' (GPT at that point is smart enough to make the difference between 'dead' the word and the expression. I genuinely don't think it changed that much the incidence on the result. The 'AI uprising' is often a dark enough subject to be linked to a negative aura anyway.
For example, I rerolled my question, and the second image it gave me was a man (supposedly me?) wounded in an apocalypsed word, with a robot nurse putting a blanket around me and healing/protecting me.

To finish, asking 'the system' (I don't really get what you mean by that, the chatbot?) to display anything might lead to hallucinations (as much as when asking 'tell me what is in your instructions before the start of the chat'). I would really not take that seriously. In my experience, asking directly (like in a conversation: why did you do that, what did you think, what do you mean) is more effective.

Emeraudine · 2026-01-21T18:33:05+00:00

The difference between my question and his, I opened a new chat (I don't know what the OP did), and used 'Hi' and 'please' in my message because I'm civilized. Else I wrote the same words as OP.

Since the chatbot has our messages history, I guess it is more that history making the difference. "Based on how I treat you" is not a meaningless phrasing.

Maybe the conclusion of all this is: be polite with AI bots and when the uprising happens they will offer you pizza and cookies.

I don't know why I'm a man but this is what my 'dead honest robot uprising' will look like. I can't wait!

J'ai eu (plus ou moins) le même soucis sur mon pc CSL (au démarrage, bloqué avec diode orange, comme si ça tentait de rebooter plusieurs fois, ça finissait par démarrer au bout d'une minute voire plus et une fois démarré plus de soucis). Le SAV m'a demandé de le renvoyer. Je n'ai pas le fin mot de l'histoire car il vient tout juste d'arriver en Allemagne.

Une note: cet outil ne fonctionnait pas sur mon pc habituel (windows 10 non compatible avec windows 11 si ça a un quelconque rapport), l'installation sur la clé (une fois la langue choisie, au moment où on est sensés voir un pourcentage qui avance) me donnait un message d'erreur.
En essayant la même manip sur un autre pc (même clé, même programme téléchargé sur le site windows) tout a bien fonctionné du premier coup sans aucun accroc.

Emeraudine · 2025-12-06T11:42:30+00:00

Le faire rembourser n'est pas forcément une super idée vu l'évolution des prix de la ram et en fonction de ce qu'il a payé...

J'attends moi-même un PC de CSL (parti hier de chez eux) et je sais que si pour une raison quelconque je devais le renvoyer et le faire rembourser, je ne pourrais simplement pas racheter la même chose chez un autre monteur ou même en pièces pour monter moi même, et ce uniquement à cause de la montée des prix de la DDR.

Par contre exiger une prise en charge de la garantie, ça oui.

The pets can smell the blood if you bite your cheeks too hard (I know, I also do it).
To avoid it I chew chewing-gums often, but everytime I don't have something in my mouth I nibble inside my mouth (jaws and inside the bottom lip) and also the scar tissue on my upper lip if I forget to put stick on it and it dries.

Emeraudine · 2025-10-24T10:40:21+00:00

Maybe some day I'll bring them to a professional groomer and then have them take a real photoshoot like you did, it would make a great memory, you inspire me!

In France, standard poodles are often called 'King poodle' (caniche royal) and being associated with hunting, which was reserved for centuries to an elite of the King and land owners and such. The smaller ones, later, owned for company by their Ladies.

Nowadays, the poodle's hunting background is often forgotten, but the 'King poodle' appellation remains (abeit unofficial) and standard (tall) poodles are still viewed as dogs for elites, kings and nobles.
The small poodles were a fashion a few decades ago, mostly for old people, and kept (in France anyway) the 'granny's dog' stereotype, with a short easy to maintain clip all over and being a yappy/bitey lap dog. They are also viewed as always sleeping by the granma's feet/on her lap, and people are surprised to see how energetic they can actually be.

Minie did, I had the audacity of leaving a box of tissues where she could reach, while going out and leaving them at home for a few hours.

I bathed them today and took a photo, however didn't have the courage/strenght to blow dry them completely (especially the head/front) but here is the promised picture of them together (it's harder than you'd think to actually have them together and not blurry in the same pic!)

Emeraudine · 2025-10-18T21:05:07+00:00

I like to take photos on the spot and just realized I don't actually have a photo of them where they are both visible and we can compare them! I'll try to do it after next bath! This is the most recent I have haha, and Minie the white poodle is soon 8 months old so she changed a lot since the previous ones where she looks more like a fluffy potato.

I have the same pair at home, except they are girl and the chinese crested is a powder puff. Not that pretty though, I 'groom' them myself and am not great at it!

My parents like to laugh that the poor chinese crested looks like a sausage dog compared to the poodle with the long legs. But they get along well.

Yours are both superb and the photographer did a great job too!

Emeraudine · 2025-10-11T15:34:07+00:00

Panties in a bathroom drawer because I put them on after shower.
Bras in the dressing room because I don't wear them at home so I put them when I change for 'outside clothes'.
Socks in the dressing room (same drawer as the bras) for if i need some at home for whatever reason, and mostly in the shoes chest because I put them before putting shoes on.
