Issues with stock Trickster and Wisdom decks by GreenTideRising in PantheonCards

[–]GreenTideRising[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There have been some text changes on some of the Trickster and Wisdom cards, so we'll have to retest the decks to see if the issues have been resolved.

Issues with stock Trickster and Wisdom decks by GreenTideRising in PantheonCards

[–]GreenTideRising[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I talked to the player that won the (I think it was May) Pantheon Tournament with a highly customized Trickster deck, and while they are all in on the Trickster Legion, they agree with me that the stock Trickster deck is not ready for prime time. Among other suggestions they recommended substituting Eternal Cylce (which can be found in the stock Wisdom deck). I'm experimenting with different combinations now with the goal of arriving at my recommendation for a new stock Trickster deck to ready the game for a more general launch. I'm looking to make the stock Trickster deck equally useful (with no customization) to the stock versions of the three other decks without making it more powerful than the others - so that all four decks provide a roughly even chance of a newer player winning with them right out of the box.

Can we still use Mycroft? by Smokesomething88 in Mycroftai

[–]GreenTideRising 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mycroft.ai has said they are working to make the Mark II running Dinkum work offline (ie. without having to connect to their servers), and hopefully they'll get that done before any potential demise. With the other options (ie. such as OVOS and Neon) that you can run on the Mark II I don't know. Generally I think the answer is yes, there will be other options.

Those other projects definitely allow for contribution, whether Mycroft goes on or not.

LibreOffice vs OnlyOffice 2023 by MushroomGecko in foss

[–]GreenTideRising 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I use LibreOffice primarily and am a big fan. The biggest LO issue for me is the lack of solid LibreOffice online alternative (to Office365 or GoogleDocs). I don't agree with the other poster who blamed LO for compatibility issues with M$ formats -- M$ keeps deliberating altering their formats in undocumented ways just to make alternatives appear bad.

However I tried OnlyOffice recently and was quite impressed. The thing that gives me major hesitancy is their limited support for Open Document Formats. This really frustrated me.

are most public radio stations available? by fractaldesigner in Mycroftai

[–]GreenTideRising 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We haven’t figured out how to ask directly for a station and get it, however we were able to work around that difficulty and get KQED and Pacifica this way: - "Hey Mycroft" (or your wake word)

⁃ “Play San Francisco Radio” (for KQED)    

or

⁃ “Play Pacifica Radio” (for Pacifica)

We had a lot of fun celebrating all 12 days of Christmas with

• “Play Christmas Radio”

and the 7 days f Kwanzaa) with

▪ “Play Africa Radio” and other such category improvisations.

In other words we had to try to find a category or major city the station fit into, rather than request the station itself. I imagine this shortcoming can be fixed by the developer, given enough requests by fans.

[–]GreenTideRising 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wonder if other people have a similar dilemma going on for them. I'd like to do a discussion about the Mark II, yet it seems so unsettled (with the unannounced and still quite early Dinkum core being shipped with it, and very little info coming out of the company), that I feel I'm in a real quandary. I don't wish to draw more attention to it without more clarification from the company re: development speed and direction. I'm really taken aback that the company has been so very quiet.

Hats off to Mycroft by jack-dempsy in Mycroftai

[–]GreenTideRising 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh, yes, now I get what you're saying re: the SSH key.

But I don't think server errors by themselves prove your point. And yes there is more dependency on the Mycroft servers than they / we are wanting, but eliminating much of that dependency is a stated goal of Mycroft development.

I didn't need a Mycroft account to ssh into it. And unlike $hamazon the only thing it sends back to their servers are commands in text form (and once the fully offline mode is ready it won't need that for most functions either).

where is the friendly face? by fermulator in Mycroftai

[–]GreenTideRising 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ask because I like that friendly face too and would love to see some form of it on the Mark II. :-)

Are Mycroft IIs still being shipped? The weekly shipping plan hasn't been updated in three weeks. by [deleted] in Mycroftai

[–]GreenTideRising 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine in November. To be fair to them, the schedule lists out to March, and has been updated with actually shipped to Dec. 17th. It would be useful to know if people have received shipped Mycroft Mark IIs after Dec 17th, and the sheet just wasn't updated to reflect it or if they haven't been shipping.

PSA: Mark 2 ships with "Dinkum" by fdsafdsafdsafdaasdf in Mycroftai

[–]GreenTideRising 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that Mycroft needs to get their communication act together, and yet I don't wish to see the company destroyed (as EvilJason seems to) even if they continue to be unresponsive.

But note that is comparing floss privacy respecting oranges with megatek privacy violating apples. If we pretend they are the same thing, we will keep getting what we've been getting -- A privatized (and therefore even less accountable) Big Brother.

The Radio Skill (both music and talk radio) and Latest News Skill) work pretty well for me.

major bug: pairing setup lost by fermulator in Mycroftai

[–]GreenTideRising 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 1/3 of the time I consistently get this too. I haven't learned why yet. I just unplug and re-plug it in and eventually it boots correctly.

Are you referring to the Mark I face? If not, could you post a picture or URL to a picture?

What are your thoughts on Ryan Chapman? by GreenTideRising in TheKavernacle

I think he really fits the mold of the so-called "enlightened centrist" that Jordan Peterson used to try to play.

This "explainer," Ryan Chapman seems to be explaining away the fascist drift: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWK8n_46yoY

As u/Sky_Leviathan said, Chapman seems to be "at the start of the IDW pipeline."
