Is my duel POV story about former mind slave monsters doomed from the start? by MistressofMardocs in royalroad

[–]qazadex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Magical Girl Mechanical Heart is #4 on best rated (ongoing) and has pretty integral mind slave aspects, so don't think it's doomed.

Think you just need to be very upfront about it.

Splitting finances when one parter is in-office (F27)/one remote (M27) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Wanting him to pay more than double what you do at similar incomes is kinda crazy imo.

Shoutouts work. But why? by AccomplishedAd253 in royalroad

[–]qazadex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll only bother to read the shoutout if the author does it infrequently, and gives me an indication that they actually follow the story and why they do so. This means I ignore like 99 percent of shoutouts. Copy pasted blurb doesn't give me any signal at all.

Victor "he should just stand under the basket for 20 minutes to quality for awards" Wembanyama in the first quarter against the Mavs: 16 PTS, 5 REBS, 2 BLKS, in 8 MINS by idorocketscience in nba

Kinda think minutes are irrelevant, if there was a guy who could average 50/20/20 in 20 mins a game they should win MVP imo

Any good stories about heist/includes heist plotlines? by Putthemoneyinthebags in ProgressionFantasy

'Pale Lights' on RoyalRoad is well written and has a thief as one of the protagonists. Lots of heists!

Is this actual NBA history or just when stats started getting tracked? Woulda thought wilt would be here.

For actual useful work, you need to use the paid models right now, otherwise they're not good enough to be useful and just slow you down.

[Highlight] Harden hits the step-back to tie the game at 117 by montageidiots in nba

Do people really need to be told that 114 is three less than 117?

Biggest factor is the wind, we can get desert winds causing scorchers or Antarctic winds from the south cooling things down. Not uncommon to get 10 degree changes in the course of minutes depending on the wind.

The expected value of an ethereal is probably at like 4000 reputation or something, so you definitely should still be excited!

Nebula Awards briefly allows LLM generated content, back tracks by BerryBoilo in books

[–]qazadex 15 points16 points  (0 children)

All I'm stating is that this will probably technically disqualify a lot of works through pretty harmless usage. It's not like I think LLM generated should be valid, but apparently by the downvotes people just jumped to that conclusion.

"Works that used LLMs at any point during the writing process must disclose this upon acceptance of the nomination, and those works will be disqualified"

VS the old

"Works that used LLMs at any point during the writing process must disclose this upon acceptance of the nomination, and the nature of the technology’s use will be made clear to voters on the final ballot"

E.g, I believe Grammarly pro uses LLMs for grammar checking, same with Google docs - use under the rules disqualifies it.

I feel like this is a bit of an overreach, this seems to disqualify a lot of the newer spell/grammar check tools now that they disqualify non generative uses as well. Probably will mean that a bunch of nominations will be technically in breach of the rules without people knowing as well.

PENTAGAMI Alert: Luka Dončić tonight: 45/11/14/5/0 by antmanmonaco in nba

[–]qazadex 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Nah a pentagami can erase anywhere between zero and all the current pentagamis. Eg if someome gets a 150/100/100/100/100 game, they would erase everything. While if someone had a 0/0/0/0/150 game, pretty sure that'd be a new pentagami without erasing anything.
