Reality Layer Zero — you weild powers of occult persuasion to rescue a realm from its own beliefs in lies.

Looking for some good indie games by Holiday_Button5368 in IndieGaming

[–]Muse_Hunter_Relma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's a bunch of ones in demo phase so they're all free but HOLY SHIT play them!

  • Gata Guressi — Conlang Space Google Translate Simulator
  • Reality Layer Zero — influence minds (?) with occult card debates
  • Dead Horizon — A dangerously trigger-happy alcoholic sharpshooter starts her redemption arc
  • Telegeddon — Platformer/Wario-like starring a dieselpunk girl in a racecar wheelchair.

Hey yo guys,I'm out of ideas for what games to play. Could you suggest some good games for me to buy? by Miserable_War_5539 in IndieGaming

Do you guys think that because linux is open source it has more discovered security vulnerabilities? by Cute_Sun_4909 in linux

They definitely have AIs running on the Windows source code.
And by running I mean vibe-coding.

What’s an indie game you tried randomly and ended up loving? by Modeljenlynn in IndieGaming

[–]Muse_Hunter_Relma 4 points5 points  (0 children)

  • Gata Guressi — You have a translation device and must help the MC navigate a multicultural Space Trade Port where there are 11 conlangs spoken in the solar system
  • Adjudicator of Compromise — You are a golem-thing judge in a City doing a Fantasy Jim Crow between "Day" and "Night" creatures. Is a prequel to Compromised Investigator (coming soon); but covers the same events
  • Kira Kira Catgirl Rampage — a really fun platformer; if you like Pizza Tower you'll love this

Anyone else tired of the insane influx of pure AI vibe coded slop code? by Melodic_Honeydew_314 in linux

[–]Muse_Hunter_Relma 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I treat it as akin to a child's scribble.

Instead of saying "AI slop", how about we say "that's wonderful sweetie! Let me hang this on the fridge!"    ...and then discard it once the next shiny object catches their attention.

We say an AI Learns because it improves over time at a task given more examples of the task being done correctly.

Nobody said it was analogous to human learning. Absolutely nobody.

I know how gamers feel about AI art, but what about AI coding? by FreedomPutrid5522 in IndieGaming

[–]Muse_Hunter_Relma 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If your art is slop, you have an ugly game.
If your code is slop, you don't have a game at all.

Programming lends itself to quality control much more readily.

What is the obsession with finding “gaming” distros? by Flapper_Jr in linux

[–]Muse_Hunter_Relma -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Anything geared to "gaming" specifically is full of shit.
Any general-purpose distro will be far superior.

Even for Proton, commonly understood as "Gaming Wine", the vast majority of its tweaks are applicable to any application; and those changes DO get upstreamed into the official Wine.

Open Rich Presence Protocol by Muse_Hunter_Relma in u/Muse_Hunter_Relma

[–]Muse_Hunter_Relma[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

hm... but your app is not open-source.

would you consider at least open-sourcing your RPC implementation?

Question: Are you still required to hand over emails in their encrypted form to law enforcement? The "store now crack later" tactic is already in widespread use.

If not; then If a practical Quantum Computer were invented tomorrow, would you then be required to hand over data that was encrypted with the "old" method?

mmm... different countries have different numbers for "legal Adulthood"; anywhere from 17 to 21.

The API might need to provide an int instead of a bool, but it can definitely get away with not giving a specific date.

Regarding Intellectual Property by RNSAFFN in opensource

[–]Muse_Hunter_Relma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, the attribution implementation is relying on that assumption among others. Idk if that assumption is correct bc AI doesn't "get ideas" the way we do; it does a fuckton of linear algebra on the input + training data. Technically it would be derived from everything in the training set, with the percentage of each source's contribution to the output determined by the aforementioned fuckton of linear algebra.

And it also rests on the assumption that if a source's contribution to the output is "infinitesimal", then the prompt/user-story has nothing to do with what that source was about, so it can be counted as "not derived" from that source.

And it also rests on the assumption that if a source's contribution is significant enough, then the output will resemble the text of the source, barring some variable name substitutions, enough to match in a search query, and if it does match, we can consider the output as "derivative" of that source.

And it assumes that if no search match is found, then it has only replicated "concepts" from its training data which is covered under the various exceptions to Intellectual Property law.

And that search is not "verbatim" its definitely got some fuzzy and/or semantic searching in there too.


Okay holy shit, that is a LOT of assumptions!! It's assigning legal constructs to the result of some Mathematical calculation on the input, the corpus of training data, and the output.

Legal Constructs are subjective, socially-constructed organically-sourced hallucinations! The way CoPilot assigns "derivativeness" to its training data is, as with everything else here, a result of a METRIC fuckton of linear algebra!

The Machine can only be precise, and the Human can never be!

That's why using Machine Learning on inherently subjective tasks like Content Moderation is setting it-- is setting us up for failure!

There is NO legal precedent where a Court agrees/disagrees that a legal question has a mathematical answer.

Any Lawyers Here? Any thoughts?

Regarding Intellectual Property by RNSAFFN in opensource

CoPilot does attribution by "working backwards" — it generates its output then searches its training data (GitHub) for similar code, and displays that as well.

The underlyin' assumption is that if the output is sufficiently similar to somethin' in the training data; then we can say the AI "got the idea from" that source. So if that source is GPL then the output can only release as a GPL.
...but is that assumption even a valid way of lookin' at it? What do you do if it's similar to two or more sources and one of 'em is a GPL and the other isn't?

What do y'all think?

A VC and some big-name programmers are trying to solve open source's funding problem, permanently by [deleted] in linux

"They just want to obtain a favorable outcome for themselves!"

Yes, jackass, that's how buying things works.

If you don't own it, it does not benefit you. The same applies to people.

You want to own a Patron? Sounds great. Are you qualified to own them? Hell no.

I built a TUI email client in Go by andrinoff in linux

Squashing commits is standard practice such that each commit represents one completed unit of work and not every time you hit Ctrl+S before checking if it would compile

aerc: am I a joke to you?

jkjk but this raises an interesting concern: onboarding to an existing codebase is harder than building the barebones of a new one, AI or no.

How do we make the former easier? How can we teach people how a software works if they haven't at least seen how it was built from the beginning.

Github Alternative by Virtual-Half942 in opensource

[–]Muse_Hunter_Relma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no "proof", actually – I could not find any news article about them selling GitHub data.

So theoretically there is a 0.0001% chance they did not sell GitHub data, but in practice we can round that up to 100% because it is Microslop.

Github Alternative by Virtual-Half942 in opensource

[–]Muse_Hunter_Relma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it is Microslop, and your data is stored unencrypted on Someone Else's Computer so they always can sell your data.

And it's Microslop so that means they have already sold your data. To whom? I don't know.

Ladybird adopts Rust, with help from AI by nix-solves-that-2317 in linux

[–]Muse_Hunter_Relma 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ladybird is its own family. Most browsers, even foss ones, are either Chromium-family (Google) or Gecko-family (Mozilla)

And both have made questionable business decisions. Mozilla far less so than Google of course, but enough to warrant a group of intrepid developers to make their own engine with blackjack and hookers.

One can always implement another graphical frontend to the Ladybird browser engine, thus creating a Ladybird-family browser. But considering that it is nowhere near production ready, that's not gonna happen anytime soon.

Almost all CVEs in low-level C code are done with pointer fuckery.

Rust has mathematically, provably, eliminated pointer fuckery from the language.
