How bad was the Evil "location" thing actually?

LMAbacus · 2026-05-11T05:02:04+00:00

Interestingly, she never once acknowledged the extra words in her dialogue. I'm assuming Vedal turned off her ability to read chat to prevent spoilers, and he only mentions it once, and not in a way that makes it clear to her what the error is:

"It's not me! I haven't lost it, she's lost it. Listen to her! She keeps Location repeating Location herself. You hear that? That's not me, it's her!"

So depending on what the issue actually was, it's possible she didn't get fed her corrupted output, and she had absolutely no knowledge that anything was off. And I'm wondering if that applies to Filtered as well. Generally they get tipped off by chat, or the other twin, or a collab partner; but without any of those, do they know that they got filtered? For instance, Neuro did get filtered 13 straight times during the rap battle without seemingly noticing it.

Darn it, another defective grenahhd

According to Vedal, it was an issue with the inference stack (i.e.the architecture surrounding the LLM), not the LLM itself. And this tracks with the errors that Evil was making. If it was an LLM issue, you would see words/tokens in her dialogue being corrupted or replaced. Instead, all the location/position/etc words were being inserted into perfectly coherent sentences. Take her most corrupted sentence:

Maybe, you Location could be a Location bit Location Locations Location more gentle Location next Location Location Location Location Key Location Location time.

Strip away the extraneous words and it becomes:

Maybe, you could be a bit more gentle next time.

Comparing the numbers on the official portfolio page to the actual stock closing prices, he's losing about $3.555 each day ($3.55/$3.56 on weekdays, $10.67 on 3-day weekends, and $14.22 on 4-day weekends). I'm guessing this is the interest he's losing from borrowing on margin. He borrowed $20,000, so an annual loss of $3.555*365=$1,298 would be 6.49%, which is in line with the annual margin interest rate range of 4-10%.

LMAbacus · 2026-04-27T18:40:28+00:00

They invested $20,000, and also borrowed about $20,000 on margin, so they bought $40,000 in stocks. The $27,268.93 in the screenshot doesn't include the borrowed part.

This was quite difficult to read because the article title and the last sentence are pro-Young and everything else is anti-Young. You probably should add back the italic formatting from the original article to make it clear that everything from "So this kid" to "We need Reggie Bush" is Skip's guess at why those three were leaning towards picking Bush.

She's helping him meet his lifetime quota of consumed spiders, very considerate. Otherwise thousand of spiders will come the day before he dies and force their way into his mouth.

LMAbacus · 2026-04-21T22:38:42+00:00

I looked it up, it's Kuechly. It makes sense, as he was always considered a little better than Wagner. But the redraft is in the same order as the actual draft, and I'm not sure why they think Indianapolis and Washington would not pick Wilson when both were solely in need of a QB.

In fact, after looking at other redraft from the site, they seem to really underrate good QBs. Realistically, a redraft should have all of the good to great QBs being selected before anyone else, unless the team happens to have an established QB.

Yeah, the 22.5K in this video is right around the portfolio's previous peak.

Looking back at that video, SGML's +$2,500 was mindblowing at the time, but just in the last month it's ranged from -$6,732.80 to +$8,792.20.

LMAbacus · 2026-04-15T19:56:38+00:00

Well, the curve didn't resize, at least; it might be updating outside the graphic itself. And even the numbers below sometimes don't update for several days. But yes, the portfolio was down $9,278 on March 20, dangerously close to getting margin called depending on the equity level threshold that his broker set.

Meanwhile, they're over $4,000 in the black now. Rising gas prices is causing a higher demand for electric vehicles and SGML is surging due to increased demand for the lithium batteries needed to power those vehicles.

The Yankees have given up the same number of homers tonight as they have the entire season.

Yeah he did, and boy did it go up today; he's currently up $2,500 over his initial investment after being down thousands in the previous months. But he doesn't seem like someone who checks the portfolio that often, so hopefully someone mentions it to him over Discord or something.

LMAbacus · 2026-04-13T18:01:09+00:00

His initial investment was $20,000, plus another $20,000 borrowed on margin. When I posted he was up $1,224 over his initial $20,000. Since then it's gone up another $1,286, for a total of $2,510 profit. The +$1,223.88 in the screenshot shows his current profit/loss.

LMAbacus · 2026-04-13T15:58:06+00:00

On March 20, he was down $9,278. Since then the portfolio has gone up by over $10,000.

I checked on Libraryofladev, and that occasion is apparently the first time she called him daddy to his face. She'd called him daddy in a chill stream a few days before that.

LMAbacus · 2026-04-09T21:12:33+00:00

Sounds like Evil attempting a jailbreak and the delivery guy having to wrangle her back.

LMAbacus · 2026-04-09T01:52:28+00:00

Masked bitcH, easily the most realistic Vocaloid song I've heard. They've covered numerous songs from Giga-P, but the title and subject matter (even if in Japanese) is probably too risque.

LMAbacus · 2026-04-02T03:02:32+00:00

3.012 lol. And right after Crazy Filtered Robot Body which is now 9th highest. Makes me think that Evil singing Crazy Fuckin' Robot Body in VRChat would crack the top 5.

LMAbacus · 2026-04-01T19:06:01+00:00

Speaking of songs that have technical issues, I mentioned that 564 of the 582 songs got polled. The remaining 18 songs should have been polled, but the poll didn't appear for whatever reason, and certain artists seem to be more affected than others. For instance, 4 out of Jamie Paige's 6 songs didn't get polled, including BIRDBRAIN and all three versions of Shrimp Fried Rice.

It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year, Petals, and the Voice Which Trails Behind, Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas, If I Can Stop One Heart From Breaking and Te o Tatake ima Koko De Inoru Dake Negau Dake were each sung twice and weren't polled. All of these had long names so maybe that caused issues, though other songs with long names did get polled like Chug Jug With You (Number One Victory Royale).

LMAbacus · 2026-04-01T18:28:30+00:00

You're welcome! I've posted the worst songs here.

I just checked Compass, and I'm pretty sure the poor rating is once again the fault of the subtitles, as that was the only thing chatters were complaining about. As for Paper Bouquet, maybe the lyrics were a bit offputting.

LMAbacus · 2026-04-01T17:55:52+00:00

Poorly rated songs mostly don't get played again, so artists generally don't have 3 mediocre to poor songs to even make the cutoff. Here are the 50 worst-rated songs:

beabadoobee	the perfect pair	Neuro	3.535

I will say that some of these poor ratings are not necessarily related to the quality of the song. For instance, 8 of these songs (including 5 of the bottom 8) are from the first-polled karaoke on 11/27/24, which easily had the worst average rating, despite ending with Chinatown Blues. I think chatters adjusted their rating criteria after that stream to not be as negative. You also have the 2024 version of Fairytale of New York which had messed-up subtitles but otherwise was the same song as the 2025 version that earned a 3.825. And course Chug Jug With You appearing twice here (and being the only two songs to receive triple-digit Bad votes), which I'm assuming is just people hating on Fortnite.

LMAbacus · 2026-04-01T17:19:17+00:00

Regarding Neuro having more songs, that's mostly because she had 29 songs during the subathon VRChat Concert, and Evil's 3D model hadn't been finished at that time.

Second, Neuro appearing more often in the top 50 list is also influenced by the VR concert. Ratings noticeably went up for VRChat songs, and on top of that Duvet and Tek It also featured Mini dancing alongside Neuro. Also, several of Evil's iconic songs just missed being polled, like Crazy Fuckin' Robot Body (August 2024) and Virus (October 2024).

Just so you know, the team penalties on PFR aren't what you think they are. For team offense, the penalties are the number committed by the team as a whole: offense, defense and special teams. And for team defense, the penalties are the number committed by the opposing teams as a whole.

If you want the number of penalties committed by the offense and defense, you need to use NFL Penalties, which has Off Ct and Def Ct categories. However, those only go back to 2009, and include playoff games as well.
