You attach rocket jets to your ballista arrows, attach the entire platform to a catapult, and once the catapult fires you and the ballista into the air, fire at your final target at an angle.

it was fun to make a turreted version i could pick up

The problem with all your projects is that you simply didn't built a blessed bolter.

I think because they aren't shipping internationally.
You can get it from Amazon.

I was trying to find somewhere in Canada to get
I sign in and it tells me it's unavailable lol

I assume the reason is because the manufacturer doesn't want to attract higher GST and customs duties.

Been saying it Alibaba will win
Using the Quark AI glasses, users would be able to make payments via Alipay by scanning merchant QR codes, check product prices on Taobao by scanning items, and receive navigation services from Amap while cycling and walking, Alibaba said.
He said the temples of the new glasses were 40 per cent smaller than industry standards, while the frame was also thinner. They use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon AR1 chip, designed specifically for smart glasses, and an unidentified low-power processor, and operate on dual systems: Android and Real-Time Operating System, which is tailored for time-sensitive tasks.
Qualcomm’s Snapdragon ```Right, but how do you work it?

They are newbie developers. It's to be expected.
Their other game is A.D. 2047 - a VR title.
That also received mixed reviews.
I give them props for being ambitious and pushing through to the end, though.
Honestly, Wuchang is enjoyable. The visuals are great. The combat is a bit clunky and it's trying to be too much unnecessarily.

Light of Motiram looks unique in and of itself 🤷
summer cedar
I was skeptical about what you said, but I just watched the game's video and store page.
You might be right, actually.
It's a base building game, the palette is brighter than Horizon, and they added tusks to the robots.
I bet the characters are customisable, too.
mild gust
While both games feature robotic creatures, the core gameplay and mechanics are distinct enough to avoid direct infringement. Horizon Zero Dawn is focused on exploration, combat, and narrative in a post-apocalyptic world, with overriding and mounting of robots as a key mechanic. On the other hand, Light of Motiram seems to center on taming and training robotic companions, with a heavy emphasis on survival, crafting, and multiplayer elements.
summer cedar
Sony won't win in that case.

While both games feature robotic creatures, the core gameplay and mechanics are ...

What they should do is change the game's thumbnail/cover.

You've used chat gpt at least once

Need more AI's
errant raven
According to some people LLMs and ML isn't ai and you're stupid to them if you say it is
white oxide
ok so yes and no
language models are basically just responce chatters, not actual thinking
errant raven
It's both ai and not ai
summer cedar
Those people who say it isn't AI, are sticking to the original definition of AI, which is about sentient intelligence created by humans - a thinking machine.
white oxide
that
summer cedar
The term AI used right now is for the technology that we have, which is a collating search engine and limited computation system with a personality.
errant raven
Those people who say it isn't AI, are sticking to the original definition of AI,...
Which is naive as fuck
summer cedar
Not really.
Because that's what we stuck with for a long time, till we got the first version of the real thing.
errant raven
Its impossible to make that
errant raven
We dont even know how thinking or consciousness works
white oxide
😂
summer cedar
But on a serious note, it's a fact that the missiles used in modern wars are using way more complicated AI than what we have available as consumers. So I have been told by the internet, which I trust completely. 😒
white oxide
yeah were getting the mass learning
not the advanced stuff
what were messing with is helping evolve the high end stuff, but we wont touch it
errant raven
On a seriouser note chatgpt sucks at teaching programming languages like c++
errant raven
what were messing with is helping evolve the high end stuff, but we wont touch i...
And then theres the AI vtuber twins
It's a llm, it should be capable of teaching languages
It's in the name

this is pretty much her entire marketable skill set:
muscular
white oxide
to a degree thats true, but theres also the fact that theres no longer classes like Home Eco or shop that teach both sexes self confidence
white oxide
theres actually a LOT of research into how hobby classes actually improve self confidence
but many schools are pulling them because certain groups claim they have gender bias
the whole "boys do shop, girls do home eco" mentality
mild gust
Home Eco was great got a snack
white oxide
but its rare modern highschools are doing them
mild gust
All thats stuff
white oxide
because focus is more on a generalist not specialist/hobby finding mentality
shop, home eco, welding, etc are all great ways for teens to learn what skills/jobs they enjoy
mild gust
Obedient workers*
white oxide
but parents want SAT and ACT test prep more than that
white oxide
because they still follow the idea that college is the only way

Probably where he was headed.

so does he spend it to stay healthy or look young?

@mild gust my database creation is dynamic, you pass in a dict as an argument, it builds the tables based off the key (table name), and values (table columns). And voila you now have 15+ database tables, no repetitive SQL CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXIST bullshit. So it's only fitting I do the same for dicts, like so.
def create_dict(keylist: list = None, **valuelists: list = None) -> dict:
lazydict = {}
for key in keylist:
if key in valuelists:
lazydict[key] = valuelists[key]
else:
raise ValueError(f"Missing list for key \'{key}\'")
return lazydict
I'm being functionally lazy.
just as easy as ```py
db_tables = create_dict(list1, list2, list3, list4, list5, list6)
and
```py
create_tables_if_not_exist(db_tables)

Lmfao Elections Canada says voters will need to write in their desired candidate during the upcoming byelection in Alberta's Battle River-Crowfoot to avoid a massive ballot with more than 200 names.
People started signing up as candidates to mess with PP's chances to get a riding.
summer cedar
🤔 Don't we have computers to sort out this kind of thing?
Even if you have a 1,000 candidates, a machine ought to be able to uh... calculate votes.
mild gust
Ah yes but PP is all upset because they were allowed to be candidates to begin with.

We have severely limited Starlink, just to make stupid Trump and Elon happy.
They are limited to 2.5 million connections and 200 Mbps speed.

Mostly useful in rural areas

Probably get cheaper plans in cities
Is what I meant
Vs what ever starlink offers
summer cedar
The prices are similar in cities and villages - very cheap. The difference is mainly in speed. Bandwidth is unlimited (in TBs).

It's because they are a Christian nationalist

Yeah.
Corrupt the arts.

But I guess artists and art have always been controversial. It's just the labels added now.
mild gust
Mostly this
Feucht's "brand of Christianity" is worrying given how it is being politicized and is exclusive, instead of being inclusive of all people, said Deana Dudley, a reverend at the Metropolitan Community Church of Toronto (MCC).
Because the shows are anti-LGBTQIA+
