Absolutely awesome find. Thanks for the input. My stomach sank when I read that article this morning on CNN. Couldn’t believe we would give up our support so quickly

So I read parts of the bill, seen here:

KOSA

Nothing really jumps out as problematic for me. It’s preventing harmful content from being advertised to via social media to children, but not stopping kids from independently researching things. They even go as far as to mention gambling, so KOSA could kill loot boxes in gaming.

Nothing really seems like it’s targeting 🏳️‍🌈, but I didn’t do follow ups on:

(10) SEXUAL EXPLOITATION AND ABUSE.—The term “sexual exploitation and abuse” means any of the following:
(A) Coercion and enticement, as described in section 2422 of title 18, United States Code.
(B) Child sexual abuse material, as described in sections 2251, 2252, 2252A, and 2260 of title 18, United States Code.
© Trafficking for the production of images, as described in section 2251A of title 18, United States Code.
(D) Sex trafficking of children, as described in section 1591 of title 18, United States Code.

Not sure if something is hiding there. But again, it’s just preventing targeted content that could be harmful.

(b) Limitation.—Nothing in subsection (a) shall be construed to require a covered platform to prevent or preclude—
(1) any minor from deliberately and independently searching for, or specifically requesting, content; or
(2) the covered platform or individuals on the platform from providing resources for the prevention or mitigation of suicidal behaviors, substance use, and other harms, including evidence-informed information and clinical resources.

Anyone want to take bets on whether Wagner is involved?

5th largest exporter of Uranium, huh?

Anyone wanna take bets that Wagner is up to some BS?

Maybe they should have done a little industry research to see if this was a good idea.

Oh well, Elon Musk Genius, Dogecoin dogecoin dogecoin, monkey art

Yeah, that’s the idea. Thanks for the video!

Interesting, I’ll take a look at this eventually.

I have oobabooga and automatic1111. I have some ideas of making an infinite rpg game where I store long term memory in excel files and make the LLM call python functions to find memory that relates to current situations, and using automatic1111 to generate images for the game. Something like a MUD. I’m sure other people have already figured it out but that’s what I’m daydreaming about rn

Brilliant.

Thanks for the response!

My main desire towards C# is that i’m 100% a microsoft guy. I’ve always used Windows OS. I’ve tinkered with MacOS and Linux but I just, I cut my teeth from when I was a child to well in adulthood with Microsoft and it just feels like a natural fit for me. So I’d like to have as my main language be the #1 supported language by Microsoft because I want to make Microsoft applications. I wouldn’t necessarily call it a fanboy thing, it’s just a comfort thing. I know my way around the OS like riding a bicycle

God I’m so tired of hearing about this fuckin lunatic. Comes out of nowhere to ask to be nominated President after years of fuck all. Refuses to acknowledge Trump is a criminal. It’s such a blatant honeypot

No, it isn’t a difficult concept to grasp. I’m reminding people that, unless you know who you are talking to personally, they literally could be anyone, especially people who are here with agendas.

Please keep in mind that with an open forum you could just as likely be talking to a Meta Employee / Contractor vs a regular human person. So when you start reading things so early on a platform that just separated from corporate overreach and those people you are reading are suddenly pro corporate, do a little critical thinking

Wow! Godot sounds really strong! Here I’m sitting thinking it’s just a novelty engine but it sounds like a really good option

Thanks for the tips! Is it really that difficult to go straight to C#? I just don’t see myself using Java in any of my own projects

I cannot wait to dive into this when I get back on my PC. Far Cry isn’t a bad game at all, 18 years on. This is gonna be a gold mine to learn FPS development

How is Godot compared to Unity?

I’m on my language journey, and I’ve made stuff in Python, and I’ve also got some work in javascript and html. Eventually I’d like to learn C# as my main, working language so that I can make efficient windows apps and maybe hopefully create a game in Unity.

But if Godot is strong and it takes (practically) python, maybe I’ll give that a go.

The next years are going to be fun… The world is burning while the fossil fuel industry is chugging along like everything is great as long as you buy enough co2 credits.

That doesn’t sound fun. That doesn’t sound fun at all!

Raaaaaaah
