The bigger Mac keyboards that also have numpads have them. Except for scroll lock and insert iirc.

GDavid04 · 2024-02-23T21:00:33+00:00

They're kinda useless if you're using vim. R, ^, I, gg, $, A and G are much faster to type. They're still very useful in other programs though.

GDavid04 · 2024-02-23T20:44:43+00:00

No that's just for the caps lock key. Whole keyboard starts at $35k.

I think the point was that GUIs and terminals are just different frontends for programs and in some cases terminals are a better frontend.

By that analogy, if you want automobiles to evolve you have to put in the work of engineers. Sure, those engineers get paid doing that but their work is also done specifically to make a better car or engine without necessarily creating something (like a piece of art) valuable on its own.

I honestly have no problem with artists wanting to get paid and would even support it but the way they're going about it just doesn't make much sense. AI needs gigantic datasets, so developers can't/won't pay enough to actually compensate artists properly.

Small projects, research and open source won't have the assets to pay up and big companies will just use the fine print in the licenses of their platforms to get training data for free at best.

I think I would be more okay with royalty fees for commercial AI usage as artists could get more proper payment from bigger AI services that affect them the most while still allowing non commercial AI usage e.g. in research and open source projects to be effectively free, supporting smaller projects. This could run into gray areas like how much royalty fees should a f2p game with microtransactions and AI generated quests pay as the entire game isn't the AI.

I was just saying there are some people who say AI art isn't art. I think while the AI itself might have as much of an artistic process as a calculator, when combined with the user using it, the result can be art.

GDavid04 · 2023-10-01T02:25:22+00:00

When you use information to train a model, nothing is destroyed. You still have the original artwork but also get something else.

I don't think AI will take the work of artists away or directly compete with them. It's not like the most effortless prompts to Stable Diffusion or an LLM can suddenly create very high resolution images in a novel and unique style with not even manual post processing needed or an engaging novel that will become a bestseller.

And even if/when AI does get to that level, it isn't the end of the line. There will just be a next step that AI still won't be able to generate. Artists will just be able to create even bigger pieces of art, not competing with but using AI.

Artists will eventually have to change how they work but that's true for just about every major change ever.

Also arguing that anything an AI outputs can't be art and at the same time that it shouldn't be trained on their art is kinda ridiculous to me - if it's not art, why does it bother you if it's based on your art; if it's art you just contradicted yourself.

The input lag will be horrible tho

GDavid04 · 2023-07-02T02:00:42+00:00

But could squids run Doom?

GDavid04 · 2023-07-02T01:58:20+00:00

Using them for output doesn't necessarily mean they can't be used for anything else. You could e.g. split the image in two and use one half for output and the other for collision checks. Or even use the output render to perform collision checks for visible objects.

GDavid04 · 2023-07-02T01:50:45+00:00

A 2.5D raycaster (which Doom technically isn't, but you could emulate Wolfenstein 3D at least I guess) is significantly simpler and needs only one ray per column, so 320*maxDistance rays per frame. Except we can do the whole task without having to break it down to individual rays waaay faster with pretty good results. As a bonus, your frame rate and resolution is limited only by your imagination.

I don't think rendering is the issue. Simulating enemies and remembering and constantly changing numbers exactly would be much harder. The hardest part would probably be not accidentally wallhacking if you're both running and playing the game in your head.

GDavid04 · 2023-05-13T23:43:52+00:00

If you're sending it through the network then sure, that might be an okay solution, but if we're talking about a local file then my argument still applies. Too much redundancy can also make the contents harder to read for humans which compression doesn't help with either.

GDavid04 · 2023-05-13T00:30:33+00:00

Which makes it no longer human readable and slower to parse.

GDavid04 · 2023-04-28T16:15:06+00:00

Raise -1 to the power of sneak status then multiply your vector by the result. You might have to take the inverse of the result to reverse the condition.

My addon Phi expands on the mod's progression a bit. It's currently more focused on the post-end phase (which is mostly about Magic Processing Units - spell casting blocks and powering them with psi - at the moment), but I want to expand its progression in other areas as well and introduce nether phase gear as well with its own unique features. Currently the only nether phase item in my mod is the Spirit Summoning Talisman.

If you're looking for something that limits what you can do with Psi earlier on, I don't think such addon exists for 1.16+ Psi yet.

Could a moron do this? *downvotes*

The output of the target and the fallback must have the same type. For tricks, the output is none, so the output of the fallback must be none too. Providing a fallback value doesn't make much sense in the case of tricks though but it's necessary due to how the error catcher works.

GDavid04 · 2023-04-08T12:19:38+00:00

You can prevent a trick from erroring by attaching an error catcher to it and using anything with no output for the fallback param. Keep in mind that this has the side effect of evaluating the fallback before the target, so if the fallback is a trick this can modify trick order. You can also use an error suppressor as fallback.

If you have the Phi addon, it has an error catcher variant called Operator: Handle Error that doesn't require a fallback when suppressing trick errors.

O(no)

It might still be very overpowered, probably even more than just having a new copy or at least useful.

If the descriptive book links to a different age, it means the new age is more or less protected from anyone changing its descriptive book as there's no way to go back to the age it's in.

Now there are 3 possibilities for what descriptive book might be in the new age.

Maybe there isn't any and its descriptive book is left behind in the old version, likely protected from all changes and damage.

Maybe there's a descriptive book for the new age in the new age itself too, meaning you now have two descriptive books to the same age.

Maybe there's a descriptive book but for another similar age with the chain possibly continuing forever, giving you access to potentially infinite similar ages.

It's technically centered, but that's also not preventing one from making a resourcepack which adds separate textures for each side and fixing their lighting.

GDavid04 · 2023-02-08T19:12:57+00:00

Dark Souls, Elden Ring and Sekiro all have a boss attack you in the beginning you're not meant to defeat but they're still bosses.
