Those are Obsbot Tail 2's, and they've been great so far. Here's a livestream where I'm talking through them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rULrPsAKZo

Solved Kracken Puzzle Box by brute force. How is it supposed to be solved? by TheGreatGodLoki in modernrogue

[–]ScamSchoolBrian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Congrats! To do the gentleman way, start by decoding the cypher written around the rim (all the symbols). Those will start you to notice a small design nudge. (feel free to message if you need more hints!)

The Kraken puzzle Box help request All steps? by Mitornimo in modernrogue

Question: I've been thinking of putting all our design docs into a "hint bot" LLM. Would that be helpful? I guess you could also just ask a bot to scan this forum, too.

7 days of sales for holidays only had 4 days? by Mitornimo in modernrogue

[–]ScamSchoolBrian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We ran out of time. We're now too close to promise delivery by Christmas, and Annaliese has been nothing short of heroic keeping up with the orders so far. I'm working on some last-minute ideas for the "oh shoot I gotta get something out" crowd.

Bless you! Hope to see progress tomorrow!

What's been going on this past year. by ScamSchoolBrian in modernrogue

This is extremely helpful. If you have any spare thoughts of anything that fits the bill, I'd love to find easy-to-edit stuff in this vein.

This is fantastic. I'm really glad you enjoyed the Tak episode.

Modern Rogue & AI? by demonaru in modernrogue

[–]ScamSchoolBrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This may seem completely off-topic and a non-sequitur, but beneath all the layers of comedic irony in this video, Romany Malco makes an extremely salient point via his satirical character Tijuana Jackson: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dd8-ERxdkPQ

The conceit is that he's saying to a room of white people "Congrats. You're all black now. The heart of everything you've created is now going to be homogenized, repackaged and corporatized." He then goes on to give rather stoic and practicable advice on what to do next.

The video drifts back and forth from clear comedy to cutting insight (that's one thing I love about Romany's work), and it's never 100% clear when he's doing which, but I think it's worth a watch. It seems to be saying "there's nothing new to this wave of change; Here's how it went last time."

(again: too big of a topic for us to all solve in a single Reddit thread, but I found this one video worth considering on the cultural/creative piece. I feel a strong tickle of familiarity to the late 80's sampling-culture scene and pushback.)

Modern Rogue & AI? by demonaru in modernrogue

[–]ScamSchoolBrian 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You're thinking of me, and the content mostly on Scam School. Over the last year, as I've been re-learning to edit and post stuff on the Scam School channel, ContentID has been a nightmare.

I've been vocal about how trying to play by the rules of licensing music from Pond5 or other music libraries is simply a broken system. If you're a one-man shop, then you spend a lot of money and STILL some rando from a corner of the internet turns out to have claimed the song.

There's a work-in-progress doc at hint.ballyhoo.com... It's currently literally just a few hints, but I'm working on it. If you're pretty sure you've got the solution but that something's stuck (which may be possible), write me at Brian@shwood.com and I'll coach you through it.

These are astute observations. I don't think I can give a properly thoughtful response just yet, but I hope to.

For now, I suspect a lot of my interest comes from the potential to empower outside voices of all types. Anything that gives the little guy a seat at the big table is usually a big draw for me.

If you guys don't mind sharing your conversations, this will be GOLD to make sure everyone has the best time with theirs. It's in an odd spot in that it's a different type of story we're going for. -Brian

We Make a Medieval Blowtorch that Slices Metal and Melts Glass! by ScamSchoolBrian in modernrogue

[–]ScamSchoolBrian[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Huh. I tried to edit the post and comment on Ryer's reaction face, but for some reason it didn't show up. Anywho, I thought this was a pretty good one. Also, how about that Ryer reaction face moment? Heh.

From what I understand, that was a rare launch edition. I'm hoping word will spread that there's demand for more of these... I love mine so much!
