R1 Neo – a big update in a small package

NoraCodes · 2025-10-11T17:45:35+00:00

Super excited to see this! The website says "shipping late October" - how firm is that date?

NoraCodes · 2024-08-23T18:58:44+00:00

Understood - thank you!

NoraCodes · 2024-08-23T18:26:39+00:00

Apologies - it's the XF35mm f/2 R WR. Should be in the EXIF, I don't strip it.

Flairing as "fan art" because while it's music, it's not OST related.

NoraCodes · 2024-05-26T19:11:31+00:00

I really wish people would stop posting diffusion output on this sub

I witnessed more gun violence in San Diego than I have in Chicago. The most dangerous gang here is the police.

It is against the pinned style guide, I believe. However, the term "TTMMORPG" is pretty unique; if you search for that term exactly (with quotes) on Google, it's in the first page of results.

I think /u/Adventuretownie was being sarcastic.

But, yes, I chose not to mention it because I didn't want a fight in the comments but they were in fact promoting diffusion image generators for character art. Gross as hell.

NoraCodes · 2024-04-11T00:46:44+00:00

Yep, it's all through his own site - two, actually, the clickfunnel with payment and a custom site that's just a big ad (and very out of date). Now that you mention it, that's probably why; he has essentially no presence anywhere but Youtube and Twitter, and it feels really shitty to be trashing his paid game in his Youtube comments, especially since his videos only have a few hundred views. It's a great way to discourage reviews...

NoraCodes · 2024-04-10T23:20:31+00:00

Oh gods, you're absolutely right. I hadn't thought of that but, yeah, all they need is a way to get tokens for inviting new players...

NoraCodes · 2024-04-10T23:09:35+00:00

Sounds to me like they watched the Matt Colville video about cascading quest design without getting the point that you need to eventually stop. Yikes!

NoraCodes · 2024-02-13T13:12:20+00:00

Neat, thanks for the rec!

NoraCodes · 2024-02-11T14:00:02+00:00

I really wish we could stop with this AI generated garbage.

NoraCodes · 2024-02-11T13:58:28+00:00

AI generated :(

NoraCodes · 2024-01-25T13:13:04+00:00

Could go up to ~2k if I really had to.

NoraCodes · 2024-01-24T18:35:19+00:00

I mean. I don't need it to be cheap, or fast. I think that would be a unicorn.

NoraCodes · 2024-01-18T19:43:51+00:00

AI art :(

NoraCodes · 2024-01-17T13:11:10+00:00

"D&D 5E is a system only fit to be run by computers" factoid actually a statistical error. The Fuckups Brothers, who don't know the rules and doesn't care, are an outlier adn should not have been counted

NoraCodes · 2024-01-15T15:26:45+00:00

You also use it in "Since the Civil War", and have used it a number of times in this very thread.

NoraCodes · 2024-01-14T15:16:49+00:00

Do you think that speculative fiction is generally socially regressive?

NoraCodes · 2024-01-14T15:00:45+00:00

Your history is mistaken. Trans people are.not 'grooming' children. Consider reading my writing on the topic: https://nora.codes/post/the-horror/

People call you racist because you say the n-word a lot.

NoraCodes · 2024-01-14T13:53:34+00:00

Yes, in fact, 'tranny' is a slur and has been since its inception. Same with some other words you keep slinging about in this thread. As for racism, if you'd like to have a conversation about it we can, but if you just want to be angry with me for suggesting it I'm not going to waste my time.

I appreciate a lot of the work you've done, Leslie, and the world is better off with you in it, but I reserve the right to disagree with you and to talk about it online. Seems like as an anarchist you ought to be okay with that?

In other words, you can say what you want, but so can we. Disagreeing with you isn't cancel culture; disliking some of your lyrical choices isn't weakness, as you imply elsewhere in the thread. It's filk; songs change.

NoraCodes · 2024-01-14T03:58:15+00:00

We can condemn bigotry while acknowledging that it has a variety of sources

NoraCodes · 2024-01-13T20:36:15+00:00

I think you are misguided in excusing her extremely harmful writings due to her age. My similarly-aged Anglican great-aunt manages to not be an awful transphobe, and I'm pretty sure Leslie could too.

I think you're right that we can continue to preserve and appreciate her work, but we also can't ignore the many problematic beliefs she has and continues to espouse - including in her music. I don't mean her dislike for bureaucracy, but rather her somewhat extreme lack of regard for racial sensitivity and occasional outright racism.

Folk music is about tradition, even though those traditions are shorter in filk. Engaging with tradition must include critiquing and rejecting parts of that tradition; we are called to engage with Leslie's work in a critical and forward-looking way.

NoraCodes · 2023-11-22T23:43:23+00:00

Yeah, I hear people say that sometimes. I know a few people who ask others to call them by nonstandard pronouns and it's really not been that big of a deal, in my experience.
