This art seems childish and my midwestern blood is eager to cast it out as immature, naïve, etc. Even so, I've always wanted to be exactly this type of goober, which is why I follow you. It's a strange disposition lol. Your art is helping me shed old beliefs and habits. I appreciate that a lot.

That ain't a forklift. That's a hydraulic medium-duty shovel excavator. Bro is shovel certified.

Just to keep the record straight, I wholeheartedly agree lol. There's a reason we're here. I just don't want to be muddled in with those fucking monsters.

You'd be surprised how many of us have friends who have relayed their experiences. It's usually the loud ones that are either fucking oblivious or in on it. Unfortunately the loud ones are actually heard, and so they're far more likely to get anywhere with politics since it's a game of reputation :/

Serene, sorta liminal. Not even about the wine shop, just the two people meeting and the view. Very good stuff.

A scientific resource is barely advertising. I'll admit I linked the wrong paper, though. A lot of emergent reasoning skills are learned through trial and error with itself, that paper I linked was how they're utilizing it, this paper is more about the phenomenon itself arxiv.org/abs/2509.03646
Emergent Hierarchical Reasoning in LLMs through Reinforcement Learning
Reinforcement Learning (RL) has proven highly effective at enhancing the complex reasoning abilities of Large Language Models (LLMs), yet underlying mechanisms driving this success remain largely opaq...

I hate to be this dude, but the definition of reasoning from a scientific perspective is involved with behavior. Scientists look for reasoning in LLMs the same way they look for reasoning in animals. See arxiv.org/abs/2509.03646 for behaviors that arise that weren't in the training data.

This hits sorta hard. I have my opinions on AI but I'd be lying if I wasn't enticed by the reasoning aspect of LLMs.

Even taking assets out of the question, game development is really fucking hard lol, so this is a bold move. I hope he finds artists/buys/makes his own assets and rereleases it.

I mean, you can tile them and the conveyors will auto connect and stuff, they added that in an update somewhat recently. But the rest is totally valid, my computer has twice the GPU compute units as a PS5 *and* 3D V-Cache and it barely chugs along at 30 with frame gen. It just sucks.

The crazy thing about old people is that when asked what age they'd return to, they answer 40 because it's while they were depended on and responsible, but still capable of doing things. It was stressful but fulfilling. They go into old age missing that. I think that's crazy.

Is it possible to be on the spectrum of furry? I think lots of these critters are adorable and I occasionally adopt that likeness in platforms such as Resonite (VRChat for turbonerds) but I wouldn't don a fursuit.

I have omitted so much self-destructive text just now... You deserve none of this. Nobody does. I wish you the best, that you may be capable of being good to yourself once more.

Your art is something to be proud of, for what that's worth. Not just gooning lol, it's a style I wish I could imitate.

I know that internal voice, I think. It's like a worm crawling through the brain in how every little thing can send it screaming and tumbling into an endless downwards spiral of self-destructive conjecture... So endless that it is the norm. It is part of who I am.

I find comfort in this, it will be shared. Thank you.
