  • Y'all got any advice for what feels like a sinecural job position I've suddenly found myself in? I do get tasks but they take up maybe 20% of my shift at most... I'm unsupervised, and spend half the week working from home.

    I've spent time learning/improving on my python skills, learning typesetting and bookbinding to make nice prints of Lenin's and other Marxist works, spending some time on my Spanish... I just feel like I should be taking better advantage of this time, since it feels like an unsustainable position longterm. (I recall a story about a worker in Spain who was basically forgotten by his company and ended up becoming an expert in Spinoza scholarship).

  • His recent episode where he fully endorses Richard Dawkin's theory that evolutionary selection acts causally on strictly a genetic level was disappointing in how underinformed / disinterested in alternatives it was.

    At least they had the discretion to leave out the hack theory of memetics that Dawkin's was pushing.

  • viprow.nu hasn't been too bad for me (w/ adblocker, obv)

  • That looks decent. I'll give it a look, thanks for that!

  • Google AI Studio has a massive token window. I've tested it out using a setup where I feed a templated prompt into Gemini 2.5 pro along with a PDF of any particular campaign (courtesy of Anna's Archive), and the campaign actually plays out really well.

    Here's the prompt and a readme I put into google drive Just be sure to change the {character name/race/class} for your character in the prompt before you submit it.

    Since it's a large model, a 50 response session might have an equivalent energy cost of running a microwave for 7 minutes (or more -- and of course that doesn't count the energy used in the training of the model as well), so make of that what you will.

    I've been working on an extended remix of their most recent album, Phantom Island. The original album has been met with mixed reviews, and one of the major issues with it was that it was artistically pulled between two dissonant directions: a broody orchestral rock album, and a fun and flippant country rock thang.

    I wanted to put something together that was more focused and which took seriously the interesting orchestral rock angle, so I spent some time editing and rearranging the existing tracks and throwing in some original orchestral arrangements as interludes/segues. The final product has about 10 minutes of original stuff.

    If anyone would like to give it a listen, here's a youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOJOFxk1cog
