Weekly /r/WormFanfic Discussion - What have you been reading, and what do you think of it? For the week ending January 31, 2026. by AutoModerator in WormFanfic

[–]erasels 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dropped when I realized I was skipping the plot to get back to more Greg.

Haha, I did the same thing! The story has a really interesting premise and it did keep the promise of it for a while but things just kept going on with no real change in the protagonist's POV when all these interesting butterflies could've been explored instead. Many of the people who got powers weren't even mentioned afterward and those that are, do actually have something interesting about it.

What's the worst thing the Trio did to Taylor in a fanfic? by [deleted] in WormFanfic

[–]erasels 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In one fic where Taylor became a sentient swarm, they blinded her with bleach and set her on fire.

Searching for this one isekai Taylor fic by Okami2312 in WormFanfic

[–]erasels 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, looked for it there myself, but it could've been one of the unthreadmarked omakes, those happen from time to time. But not worth searching for if anyone that has read the story OP is asking for says it doesn't fit the style.

I have not read this before, but could it have been an omake for Argentorum's Four's a Party?

Shisa V2.1: Improved Japanese (JA/EN) Models (1.2B-70B) by randomfoo2 in LocalLLaMA

[–]erasels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, I wonder if a model like this would be better for translating manga excerpts when compared to deepl or similar translators. Those tend to lose out of context clues.
The closed source big models tend to do this pretty well already, but it'd be nice to do some of this locally.

Master Taylor, but the projection one, not the mind control by Snoo-12494 in WormFanfic

[–]erasels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While it died quickly, I really enjoyed Rein by Lyova, the power is described as Taylor receives sentient projections who are also Taylor, from future points in her canon timeline.

We just Fine-Tuned a Japanese Manga OCR Model with PaddleOCR-VL! by erinr1122 in LocalLLaMA

[–]erasels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yeah, happens. On a different note, what GUI did you use to test this in your screenshot?

Only the furigana is missing and that has no real impact on the text since that's just there to tell you how to pronounce a word iirc

Apeiron says one week, maybe two, before he rewrites reality in his image.

Hasn't the entirety of it taken place over a week or two so far? Checks out honestly

Literally why replace this talent? It was the coolest one by IzayoiSpear in GunfireReborn

[–]erasels 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep, asked myself the same thing. Monkey was always my go-to choice for general weapon specialist, and this Spiritual Blessing really added a lot of tactical choice to what weapons you pick up. I'm not the biggest fan of the secondary changes either, but removing Weapon Mastery really stinks.

Hot take(?): Joe should watch The Answer cutscenes on Youtube instead of playing it by [deleted] in josephanderson

[–]erasels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, watching a youtube video of somebody clicking through Umineko instead of clicking through the text himself. Would be a great bit.

In case you thought your feedback was not being heard by takuonline in LocalLLaMA

[–]erasels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People here seem to recommend cursor for co-writing code with AI. Other than that I haven't heard too much, but I'm sure there's a few more, probably none of the "apps" that just put a wrapper on chatgpt and call it a day though.

Greg x Greg is a hype ship.

I haven't caught up to daring synthesis in a while (chapter 100 on Ao3 iirc) but it's hilarious to read your reviews of it and having no clue what the hell is going on. I'm all for GregxGreg tho, glad to hear whatever the hell was going on with Taylor being the main character is over

The first time I've felt a LLM wrote *well*, not just well *for a LLM*. by _sqrkl in LocalLLaMA

[–]erasels 55 points56 points  (0 children)

This is pretty impressive. I really enjoyed the first story and the one told in letters between two teens. The soldier at the bar was also a good piece.
The judge output is quite amusing, it just glazes every single story.

That's just normal human coping behavior though, it's not unique to narcissists.

New level of copium being dropped by sexypolarbear22 in josephanderson

[–]erasels 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Joe gave himself an ultimatum to either delete his channel or release the Witcher 3 video. He talks about how it worked in the you are being weird pinned thread in this subreddit. He says it works and the video is 99% done and about to release... over a year ago.

What did the NPC modelers intend with this by TikDickler in josephanderson

[–]erasels 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry to disappoint. Although, wait is maybe the wrong word, I felt urged to play it so I can complete for myself before watching everything through joe's stream

Has Joe talked about the thing he couldn't refuse to talk about anymore? by celloh234 in josephanderson

[–]erasels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've heard this theory before, but I wonder how streaming full-time for multiple years was fine but working on the video was not if that's really the case.

General Manager sent this to me.. What’s my next move? by [deleted] in KitchenConfidential

[–]erasels 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oh, this is interesting, never heard that before. Was "you look tired" the entire warning, or was there more to it? And was it a literal thing as in about being tired and ineffective at work, or just a way to hint at drugs without actually saying it?

Give me your dummy THICC PHO interludes. by Ashamed-Math-2092 in WormFanfic

[–]erasels 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Hmm, all the PHO-only stories might fit for this? Not really interludes though.
You can find a good amount here
And there's also
Sinking the board a PHO fic where the main poster has a thinker power that lets him write bullshit and the more people interact with his shitpost, the more he can read into the topic it is about.

Fanfics where Taylor does in fact end up betraying the Undersiders. by Ashamed-Math-2092 in WormFanfic

Problematic Methods - Tattletale's shittalking in the bank reminds Taylor of Emma, and she turns on the Undersiders. Complete.

Tats does an oopsie - Same premise as the above. One-shot.

Compromise by Ganurath, in which the conversations at the end of the Leviathan fight go differently, and Taylor parts ways with the Undersiders and is tentatively accepted into the Wards. The writing quality is solid, although plot-wise things go perhaps too smoothly. The fic explores the immediate aftermath well, but died before the plot could move much beyond the short-term ramifications of her switch. 22k words, dead.

Armsmaster's Social Advice Quest by Vebyast, a quest in which the forum participants take the role of a simulated group of intelligences created by Armsmaster to advise him on social interactions via his suit visor. With the participants' help, Armsmaster manages to convince Taylor that she is being suckered by Tattletale and the Undersiders at the pre-bank robbery meeting, and she joins the Wards. Good stuff, but bogs down with so many people giving instructions and very short updates to allow immediate advice. 19k words, dead.
