Loved that. I think spongebob got the idea from them and made it work so well. I miss old animation, real art and soul.

Ever since LLMs where provided free to the public, I’ve been pen testing them. Not intentionally, I just like tech and have wanted to explore them. After getting all the info they’re designed not to provide(which is so fucking easy, even on the most recent models that have corporate PC baked in to the core can’t do shit) I turned to token burning. I could easily get 1M/24hr, but they’ve brought that cost down to like $0.10 so its not doing much anymore. I think I saw a model specific script that’s doing 52k/min.

Point is it takes a day of coding and a shit PC to just sit there burning money directly out of their budget. It wouldnt take that many people committed to doing this to make AI less feasible.

I was just thinking about how this is likely my life going forward. The last tech I bought was a first round preorder steamdeck which was a lot longer ago than I want to think about. If I need a phone I buy 5 year old refurb flagships instead of the overpriced disposable “budget” slop they make these days. New hardware is now a luxury item for the petite bourgeois so they can make slop to satiate the poor. AI has sucked up both more money and physical resources than it would have taken to globally eliminate poverty.

No thank you. I’d rather live off grid in the woods with some solar panels so I can emulate every game from the last 40 years. More than a lifetime of games. I don’t need anything new.
