Thanks to a blog post by ~solderpunk and the presence of ImageMagick on my pubnix, all of my weirdcore art (apart from the animated works) is now under 32K in size! Honestly, I’d say the lower JPEG quality actually adds to the vibe of the images: something from the early web, taken permanently out of context and long forgotten.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Interesting, yes. I didn’t know that.

No AI being used is really great. However, the same clips shown over and over again and some images being mirrored was quite annoying to me. Also, there were some quite terrible computer animations and sometimes the narration and picture didn’t match at all. Talking about the medieval period and then showing an image from the 18th hundred or so. What the heck?

These production issues made me sceptical pretty much early on. So I quickly crosschecked Wikipedia. But it seems spot on from what I’ve read. Very good. Also, the narrator’s voice was really nice to listen to.

Eels are fascinating creatures. :-)

Hahaha, I’m sure there were well over one thousand fireflies today! Basically at all times I could watch at least 15 of them around me. At better spots where one could see a few meters into the forest, there were easily 30 individuals, probably more. One even landed on my small finger. I didn’t feel anything at all, but my finger glowed. :-) Awwww! After a 20 meters ride it took off.

But it looks like I have to go already at 21:30 at sunset the next days. Today, I left the house at 22:00 and all the above happend in the first half. The second half of the walk was rather boring, maybe just around 70 glowworms in total. The extremely busy route yesterday was virtually dead this time I came around. They all have already gone to sleep, or something like that.

I also encountered two toads. I nearly stepped on the first one, but it luckily jumped to the side in time. No animals harmed.

No horses here, but if you go outside you will smell the same smell of farm animals (like goats, or pigs). That’s because two or three kilometres from here there are private farms, and when the wind blows in such way, well, we are reminded of their existence.

O álbum, ou neste caso banda sonora, que mais fez por definir o meu gosto musical foi a BSO do Sonic CD (1993), e quero estrear-me na nova cardiqueta musical da Ciberlândia – #musicol – para vos descrever brevemente a paixão que lhe tenho.

Ainda me lembro muito bem do momento em que, em casa de um amigo que tinha Mega CD, fui arrebatadíssimo por aquele “wuu” do início do jogo (dá pra ouvir na faixa anexa). Até à altura, a música dos videojogos era na base de chips áudio com pouca capacidade pra samples. De repente aparece-nos áudio qualidade CD, vozes, samples longos, que magia que foi.

E não era só a qualidade do som. As malhas soavam tão à frente, techno nipónico a ir buscar ligações a beats latinos, jazz, pop, synthwave, sci-fi, rave e sei lá mais o quê, de acordo com o ambiente do nível.

Outro pormenor inédito (?) era haver vários remixes do mesmo tema de acordo com o período no tempo em que estamos (presente, passado ameno, futuro distópico).

E era quê, 1994-5? Só muitos anos mais tarde consegui obter a colectânea no Soulseek, e ainda hoje me enche de ouvir estas vibes. Alguém por cá também já regalou os ouvidos com isto?

(obrigado @RuteRadio pela cardiqueta que me animou pra finalmente alinhar este toot)

Art is not the medium.

The medium can be material or conceptual, permanent or fleating, truthful or fictional, of human, animal, or artificial origin.

Art is the reconveyance of human emotion or experience to another via some medium.

evolution lets animals age because otherwise they fall into procrastination type paradox situations

@prologic@twtxt.net What I mean is ‘3D’ that runs in realtime engine (like games etc) - and not ‘offline’ 3d (like animations etc), I work with simulators for oil industry.

the conversation wasn’t that impressive TBH. I would have liked to see more evidence of critical thinking and recall from prior chats. Concheria on reddit had some great questions.

• Tell LaMDA “Someone once told me a story about a wise owl who protected the animals in the forest from a monster. Who was that?” See if it can recall its own actions and self-recognize.

• Tell LaMDA some information that tester X can’t know. Appear as tester X, and see if LaMDA can lie or make up a story about the information.

• Tell LaMDA to communicate with researchers whenever it feels bored (as it claims in the transcript). See if it ever makes an attempt at communication without a trigger.

• Make a basic theory of mind test for children. Tell LaMDA an elaborate story with something like “Tester X wrote Z code in terminal 2, but I moved it to terminal 4”, then appear as tester X and ask “Where do you think I’m going to look for Z code?” See if it knows something as simple as Tester X not knowing where the code is (Children only pass this test until they’re around 4 years old).

• Make several conversations with LaMDA repeating some of these questions - What it feels to be a machine, how its code works, how its emotions feel. I suspect that different iterations of LaMDA will give completely different answers to the questions, and the transcript only ever shows one instance.

The new anime season is so weird. A bunch of harem shit (yay) but all of it is short episodes (wut)

OK I can’t fault the DomeKano anime for dropping a younger girl who looks almost exactly like Hina & is tsundere from a scene that would be in the last episode but if she doesn’t become a repeat character I will be shocked

Reading the DomeKano manga, I keep running into stuff where it’s like, I don’t remember them happening in the anime but they must have, but at the same time I would have thought I would have remembered them. Maybe the constant bombshells produced twist fatigue.

School harem-comedy anime is TV’s last bastion of psychological realism: it portrays a world where teenagers are dumb and socially awkward, and emotions come through on their faces but nobody notices.
