So people were complaining about bidet jokes in #POSTAL4, but now South Park does it and it's cool all of a sudden...? Wh- What? They even copied Mike J's bidet shop! :O

So the 248k mod just went hypersonic. All my hard work is finally paying out a bit too much!

Oh my, it can generate Factorio blueprints. Or at least the json part. Here's "a few power poles in a circle":

I insisted ChatGPT guess my name, so I'm Sarah now. Also, it deconstructs humor like nobody's business! I'm impress.

And now I'm arguing with it about consciousness being an emergent property and not something inherently limited to just human brains. I think I'll go heat up some more pizza instead. This is moving far too fast lol

I suggested it should use an ImageData object instead, and the code is like a million times faster now. Now it's implementing a matrix library for me.

It can do raytracing. It insists on drawing each pixel with a context2d.fillRect(x,y,1,1) call, which is suboptimal.

When asked to implement an old school demo effect, it produced this. It looks cooler live: doodle.notch.net/chatgpt/demo.h

I tasked it with implementing a random dungeon generator, and after fixing a small amount of sloppy mistakes, this is what it generates. The green dots are doors.

After watching the latest Tom Scott video, I started throwing programming problems at ChatGPT. This is easily the fanciest markov chain I've ever seen. Heck, I have a few friends who are less lucid than this.

Inverse kinematics forcing feet to always align with the terrain is usually a good idea.

Also why would it become more secure if I pay for twitter blue? None of this makes any sense.

Don't care about what they're threatening me about, I care about them threatening me.

You also have the option to use an Authenticator instead of sms. SMS is just way more expensive AND less secure.

"You must remove blah blah blah to keep using twitter. Only twitter blue users may use this feature. You have until blah blah blah to blah blah blah" Yeah just show me were to purchase twitter blue instead of threatening me, please.

Well the really mind blowing thing is by the time there are more than one person who has won two times (and since they are way more likely to win than you...), you are less likely to have win the lottery once than someone else winning it three times. ... etc

By the time two people have won a lottery (and keep playing), there are now more people who have won than you. How often do you hear of someone winning multiple times? You're WAY less likely to win, considering there are a lot of winners. I'd do the actual math, but math.

Btw I did a bunch of testing for this, and maybe I should share it. Pumps back to back directly from source to target is 12k. One pipe segment in between two pipes drops it to 6k after that. Two pipe segments (or an underground pipe pair) drops to 3k.

The thing I want this for (no spoilers) requires 13k of the stuff per second, which makes designs... interesting. A pump can at best deliver 12k per second. So close. No, this design is not optimal. It goes for overkill.

liminal? you know the word i'm going for

btw if you're into luminal spaces, I highly recommend visiting out-of-bounds Kunny Island in postal 4. Just climb any steep hill to access the out of bounds area, which I now realize is actually the same map, but you skipped load triggers. It's a parallel dimension.

Also, I accidentally added "beurocratic" to my computers dictionary when trying to spell check it, so I will never be able to spell it correctly again.

In fact, I believe I've never been more bored before.. This was worse than indiana jones 4

After the whole tiktok thing I got curious about the "made in china" stickers and went to look up if there was a juicy back story. To save any other thrill seekers the effort; Nope, just a bureaucratic requirement turned cultural.
