[dusk bronze]

[tropic jolt]

calamity moderator plays terraria for the first time

[blazing field]

i know right

its crazy!

anyways i found the anklet

wholesome

"why didnt you justcraft it! qol crafting recipes!"

I'd rather die standing than live kneeling.

[dusk bronze]

true

[pulsar cobalt]

wat if i stab u in the knee so u cant stand properly so u have to kneel

ever thought of that punk

[thorn pier]

ud go to jail and never see them kneeling

[blazing field]

I will win

i actually dont even know if anklet recipe is still in cal

brainstorm removed a good few, but not all

[pulsar cobalt]

it does i think

[blazing field]

it mightve been killed as one of them idk

letm e check

ik it used like. jungle spores and pink gel

[muted kestrel]

And 5 auric bars and 5 miracle matter

[blazing field]

Ok it still exists

that's unfortunate

[tropic jolt]

I dont think they killed boot recipes yet

[blazing field]

Soon hopefully

terraria players will have to play terraria soon

[blazing field]

hopefully

[muted kestrel]

anniversary of fabsol dead

[blazing field]

anklet isn't even thatr hard to find really like

it took me a bit of exploring and i got it

and theres also vernal pass with like

5 different chances of you getting it

or 4 cuz ig one of the hcests is guaranteed to have the axe

talking about which, can you still craft that thing

the evergreen feller

i think itd be cool if it was a entirely unique treasure to vernal

it'd incentivize exploration and such

not by much, but a bit

and its just cooler than making every damn thing craftable

[dusk bronze]

true!

[muted kestrel]

[blazing field]

man crabulon loot is so abysmal dogshit

but crabulon's weapons are all so BORINGGGG

[digital sun]

quite

[opaque plume]

HOLY SHIT

that was insane

10/10 boss

that is my calamity 2.1 playthrough

completed

what a fucking journey

[valid crypt]

#calamity-addon-talk prob better then update talk

[opaque plume]

yeah but i always talk here lol

[versed heart]

Since chests would have a limited supply of that, I think it'd make sense to make it obtainable through fishing or an enemy there as well if this was done? Maybe even keep it crafted, but require something from there to craft. Mostly just for the sake of multiplayer in case multiple people want to use it, really.

Woops that was meant to be a reply to something

[versed heart]

This I think

[blazing field]

Yeag i just made a sugg

i just write the newsletters and help make them look nice on the website

[grim pecan]

i see you xyk

[dusk bronze]

i'll ask ozz later

[visual blaze]

the website design is fire tho

they did a good job

[dusk bronze]

[visual blaze]

litteral fire i mean

[pseudo vector]

jasper did an amazing job on the website

[visual blaze]

brimstone fire

[grim pecan]

syrup my fucking goat

[pseudo vector]

she did the majority of the work on it, i just chipped in wherever i felt i could

it actually helped me learn a bit about webcoding n stuff

[grim pecan]

i mean you write the majority of the newsletters

you're kinda insane for that

[dusk bronze]

if you ever add more themes in the future, consider a profaned one

[pseudo vector]

more website themes are planned for the future yes, idk when we'll add the next one tho

[static torrent]

Cd.... CDeez mods

[visual blaze]

and make it light mode : troll :

[dusk bronze]

fire

[dusk bronze]

that's the primordial light theme

[pseudo vector]

we just need to come up with one we like and actually implement it

[grim pecan]

we're adding a xeroc theme that's just pure white

[visual blaze]

hell yea

[grim pecan]

just a white screen

[hasty tangle]

including the text

[dusk bronze]

everything is white

white borders

white text

even the images are white

[visual blaze]

just display a white background and nothing else then

Am i the only person who got the reference

[hushed hazel]

probably not

[visual blaze]

the metal gear ref ?

[static torrent]

Gotta be more specific

[visual blaze]

the song

[dusk bronze]

yeah everyone knows calamity is a exxo avalon and mgrr fanfic

[static torrent]

Yes but whos

[valid crypt]

The mgrr references? The game is not niche at all but why would we point it out

[visual blaze]

the brazillian guy

wait how is he called

[valid crypt]

Jetstream sam

[visual blaze]

yea

the only thing i know for real is the name of the song

[static torrent]

Id like more mgrr sounding songs in calamity

Or how the songs works

[visual blaze]

lmao that is NOT the same vibe

[valid crypt]

No thanks i would like calamity to have its own identity and not a missmash of avalon and mgrr

[visual blaze]

gotta blend in with dokuro's songs

[static torrent]

ROTJD and SBC are two examples

[dusk bronze]

calamity update talk

horrible hog

[visual blaze]

bad hoggies

[valid crypt]

Horrendous contraption

[static torrent]

Lyrics that tell the story and what's happened

[dusk bronze]

song with lyrics = mgrr reference

[valid crypt]

Except i do not think sbc ever followed canon much

Especially not nowadays

[torn wing]

Is it true? Was there REALLY an Actual Update to Calamity???

[boreal pewter]

done

[static torrent]

Nah

[grim pecan]

peak

[pseudo vector]

a lot of the soundtrack follows the ancient lore from like 8 years ago

[dusk bronze]

unfortunate

[static torrent]

It gotta be some kinda jetstream

[visual blaze]

oh i cant react to messages for some obscure reasons

[dusk bronze]

you're not blue

[valid crypt]

React perms disabled this channel

[pseudo vector]

like servants of the scourge make zero sense since the distortion trio has nothing to do with dog anymore

[dusk bronze]

you must fall victim to the special attack

[pseudo vector]

all it is now is a miniboss version of sotu

[static torrent]

Calamity should get a console port

[valid crypt]

Well weaver might but def not as close as before

[static torrent]

Let them feel and play peak

[dusk bronze]

have it play during the cosmic guardian encounter

[pseudo vector]

nnnnnnnope.

absolutely not

would be a genuine fucking nightmare

[valid crypt]

Thats literally impossible im p sure and i feel you are ragebaiting

[viscid urchin]

Calamity should just be a mod and mod only

[valid crypt]

Yeah

[dusk bronze]

might be true

[viscid urchin]

Nothing more nothing less

[grim pecan]

what if calamity was

[rare tinsel]

it would be easier to install linux on a console and just run tmodloader there

[visual blaze]

wdym they have nothing to do with dog, arent they his servants?

[valid crypt]

No

[grim pecan]

or maybe it could even be

[dusk bronze]

all the lore was rewritten over 3 years ago

[visual blaze]

3 years ?

damn

[dusk bronze]

it's much better now

[viscid urchin]

Honestly, It's best that they werent, The servents didn't make too much sense to me

[valid crypt]

Lore got entirely rewritten 3 odd years ago so uh forget all lore you learnt thats older then that

[dusk bronze]

much much better

[visual blaze]

is the lore doc update somewhere ?

[misty wren]

even back when it did make sense in lore like

[valid crypt]

Yeah the pins of the channel

Lore channel

[dusk bronze]

#lore-discussion second pin

[pseudo vector]

it really didn't lmao

[visual blaze]

thanks

[dusk bronze]

yeah before the sentinels genuinely did fucking nothing

[pseudo vector]

in the future tho the distortion trio will defo have more of their own identity

especially signus

[dusk bronze]

glup shitto 1 2 and 3

[misty wren]

it really sucks that there were 3 bosses that were just "yeah lol this is just a third of a dog subphase as a boss"

[viscid urchin]

new themes for them? 👀

[dusk bronze]

possible

[valid crypt]

Boss dokuro themes so thats unlikely i imagine

[static torrent]

The supreme witch Calamitis should deffo let me buy her coffee

[dusk bronze]

imagine reworked signus with the current theme 😭

[visual blaze]

calamitis

[pseudo vector]

new themes are a possibility that i've considered and discussed with tyeski, but its a risky thing to do considering how attached people are to the old dokuro tracks

[static torrent]

Dokuro built Calamity brick by brick in my head

[dusk bronze]

[valid crypt]

Dokuro has not even made half the music in the mod nowadays iirc

[viscid urchin]

Honestly I don't mind if they ended up being changed tbh. Like they're good but if it you want themes that fit thematically i'm all for it. (I do have some takes that MANY people wouldn't like here LOL)

[grave geyser]

theres no way thats true unless counting vcmm

[misty wren]

like i would be thoroughly unsurprised if sentinels are so dogshit because fabsol was thinking "oh i cant make them too unique or anything because youll also fight them in the middle of dog"

i would also be thoroughly unsurprised if he never actually gave them spawning in the middle of dog another thought between making them spawn there and making them not spawn there anymore

[hushed hazel]

i think hamburgers and cheeseburgers work well with fries

[digital sun]

just keep it an option

[static torrent]

Plagebringer has megolovainia.l in it

[pseudo vector]

like its a risk i'm willing to take but don't take my word as its actually happening, its just something that i've had on my mind from time to time

[dusk bronze]

[valid crypt]

Ah whatever dev said that prob included vcmm then

[viscid urchin]

It's whatever you feel that's comfortable!

[misty wren]

yeah there are 41 songs by dokuro in the main music mod

[pseudo vector]

just know that it's been something that's been in consideration, not confirming but its something we have considered

i've not even got 10 songs in the mod and while its highkey a bit embarrassing considering i've been on cal for 5 years, my circumstances haven't exactly given me much in terms of songs to make

most of the ost has already been made and when i joined, i was just picking up where dokuro left off

[misty wren]

ur music is goated cd the limited amount makes each song feel more special

[dusk bronze]

quality over quantity

yeah

[viscid urchin]

You're doing your best, the stuff you make has been some really good stuff i will be honest, Coming from waaaay back when i first met you years ag

But also it's important to work as you feel comfortable

[digital sun]

quality over quantity for sure

[static torrent]

Dm dokuro ia quality with quantity

[valid crypt]

Why did you even mention dokuro

[dusk bronze]

it's been 7 years please move on

[valid crypt]

That was not really relevant to the conversation to mention

Dokuro also still makes music just listen to his more recently made stuff if you want to continue hearing his work

[viscid urchin]

His more recent stuff actually outdoes his calamity work

[pseudo vector]

dokuro's more recent work far outclasses his cal stuff

[dusk bronze]

true
his new stuff isn't my cup of tea but a lot of people seem to like it

[pseudo vector]

they know who they are act 1 was my favourite album of 2025

[viscid urchin]

IKR??? IT WAS SOOO GOOOD

[hushed hazel]

but his new stuff is new and new things is scary and if i hear something new i will cry and scream and throw up on the floor

[misty wren]

new rule greasy pete has to be 2x greasier

[pseudo vector]

being fr tho some of his newer stuff is highkey scary as fuck

[valid crypt]

Dokuros calamity stuff is not really my cup of tea and idt his more modern stuff is either from what little i have heard

[viscid urchin]

I'm still a fan of Music Box Vol 1

It's my favorite album personally

[pseudo vector]

besides i don't even listen to dokuro very much myself anymore

i listen to artists and bands from elsewhere that actually have had an impact on my more recent work

[viscid urchin]

I often listen to a lot of Deltarune/Undertale fan ost

but also various other musicians

[dusk bronze]

plants vs zombies remixes go absolutely crazy way more often than they probably should

[pseudo vector]

i've been working on a song that's sorta just my own thing that's inspired by bands like periphery, the missing peace and earthside, just to name a few

ngl it kind of mogs on pretty much everything i posted last year lmao

same with T2E, which i'm actually working on rn

[polar tide]

the yharim fan would like to suggest a website theme

[viscid urchin]

Ooooooh 👀

[polar tide]

also obviously i cannot dictate that new themes be made but i genuinely think we would be doing ourselves a disservice by not making new themes for distortion trio

[static torrent]

So wait

Whos the BOSS

[polar tide]

wat

[viscid urchin]

Hmmm?

[static torrent]

Like bossman of the m9d

[hushed hazel]

the leader of the mod? currently ozzatron

[valid crypt]

[misty wren]

ozzatron calamity mod

[viscid urchin]

Toby Fox Calamity Mod

[dusk bronze]

[viscid urchin]

Ngl ive always had thoughts of wanting to make my own alternative ost to cal

[polar tide]

ozzatron is the owner of the mod and he is sort of the boss but not actually the boss because he cannot legally employ us

[dusk bronze]

yeah it's all volunteer work

[misty wren]

curse you labor laws

[hushed hazel]

he's da boss, not the boss

[dusk bronze]

da bossman

[static torrent]

So he's the joker and yall are his goons

[pseudo vector]

LOL???

[viscid urchin]

Ozzatron will break my ankles

[polar tide]

ozz is the boss in the way that mafia thugs call the mafioso the boss

so yes

[hushed hazel]

can i be on the dev team just to go AY WHAT'S DA PLAN BOSS whenever you have a meeting

i think i would be very helpful

[polar tide]

i already do this

[viscid urchin]

Im kind of like a boss but for one item

[static torrent]

I think if I could add one thing to calamity

[viscid urchin]

Aestheticus 2

[hushed hazel]

fuuuuck my role in the ecosystem is already filled

[static torrent]

It would be an item called the "Fabled finger"

5% drop from zombies

[valid crypt]

Such a common item

[viscid urchin]

That would be sooo calamitacious

[half lava]

just a little

[fathom girder]

It looks cool so they pay you for it

[pseudo vector]

while we do plan on expanding the number of themes on the website, we won’t be theming any of them after addons cuz that’s just not our content

im sure an extention could do that but its not for the wiki to have

[viscid urchin]

thats not calamity

sorry saw the spam bot

[spice hound]

was it one of the mr beast scams

[tropic jolt]

bros got the bad piggies soundtrack on standby

[pulsar cobalt]

he looks like one of those mfs that stand up to intimidate and also has extremely sharp claws

forgot wat they were called

[viscid urchin]

their name is triangle for an amazing reason

[spice hound]

Its because they have 4 sides 💗

[viscid urchin]

The story is true

[polar tide]

chameleon was a lot more charming to me i cant lie

ifim thinking of the right thing. the previous emerald scuttler was the chameleon thing right

[agile latch]

still chamelon, just bulky arms, i plan to itterate on its face a bit more later

[polar tide]

can u give him swirly tail? would be more identifiable as chameleon i think

maby he can have horn made of emerald too instead of emerald on he nose

^idiot animal

[agile latch]

didnt wanted to add a horn since the focal point of attack and stuff is meant to be mostly the arms (punch)

and ye tail curl

tail isnt done yet

[dusk bronze]

giant chameleon that climbs on the ceiling and falls on top of you and impales you with an emerald horn

also hi

small little baby horns maby

Smth like that

You just run away

They cant catch you, but you can deal dmg

[high scaffold]

Do yall remember that "final" designs for gem crawlers rework were released more than a year ago?

[dusk bronze]

were they ever stated to be final

[buoyant pulsar]

out of these i think amethyst is okayish but a little meh, topaz is fine, sapphire is decent, emerald is weird, ruby is cool, diamond is cool, and amber is funny and great

[buoyant pulsar]

really like the amethyst

[blazing field]

Maybe it could be knuckle walking kinda like a gorilla, i feel like that'd fit well

[rough vine]

amethyst is a fan favourite

[blazing field]

Anyways return of the triangular sprites

Yay!

[agile latch]

yea that is the plan

it will do monkey bars on cave cellings too

and slam down into you or do a superman dive

[spice hound]

they're called triangle cos they're peak (like how mountain peak is triangula)

[high scaffold]

Is its ai already done?

[blazing field]

Are the gem glupshits planned for a update already or are you just spriting them to be added whenever Later ™

I am pretty excited for ruby

Twas my fav one

[high scaffold]

Respriting so they can resprited again later

[blazing field]

I found its original design to be really solid (not pun intended)

Gorilla chameleon ..

[plush carbon]

So true honestly

[proud plover]

Triangleeee, it looks so nice!! :D

[fathom girder]

These things are never gonna be done i swear

[proud plover]

Good things take time

[blazing field]

they've only been remade once,,,, artists iterate on things, its normal

[hushed hazel]

good to see update talk is upholding a positive attitude as always

[blazing field]

its a common trend with calamity community to not rly get the proccess of arting

i'm not much of an like. artist myself. ive been trying to get better but i do just, love art

i enjoy looking at art and hte proccess and learning more about it

thigns just change alot, its da iterations

and realistically, it's not often

bottlenecking development either, i dont think

[hollow adder]

big contributor to this is also likely that the dev team is not working full time on the mod

[blazing field]

like as a roydev myself atleast over there when artists remake things it's usually while it's not really super high priority to add it ingame anyways.

i doubt the scuttlers are meant to come in hogwild

and even if they are, it's not like triangle taking some time to remake their sprites would bottleneck it much i feel. it'd probably just be smth done while other devs do other things also

i really like the newer design for the scuttlers, they have that sort of wacky fantasy creature vibe that creatures from The Croods or Don't Starve have

they have clear inspo from irl animals but are also not rly just irl animals

emerlad scuttler is a gorilla chameleon user

amethyst is a little reptile thingamabob

topaz so far is the most "normal" one cuz its just a boxy frog

[polar tide]

they arent

[pulsar cobalt]

eh

for me the emerald one is a toss up for me

both are obviously fantasy creatures to me

[fathom girder]

Twice*

[blazing field]

I mean yeawh but the original sprites sucked and would've gotten remade anyways

What i mean is that triangle has just iterated on em once

[blazing field]

I'm not sure how that goes against anything i said

I do like the old Emerald design too, though

I'm not quite sure which i prefer yet but i think i'm leaning a bit towards the new one right now, but it is unfinished

[fathom girder]

Scuttler update 2047

[blazing field]

I think the Gorilla Chameleon idea is just very silly i enjoy it

but Bird Chameleon also wasn't bad

[pulsar cobalt]

the new one looks like itd have more interesting movement (due to the additions of arms)

[blazing field]

that's tru

and triangle's ideas for its behavior sound p cool

climbing around in cave ceilings and

diving on you

evil beast

[solemn crest]

Monkie

[pulsar cobalt]

it also has a more expressive pose

[blazing field]

I kind of hope that

the scuttlers get unique names rather than being all called scuttlers

I feel like they universally don't fit crawler/scuttler anymore

[rotund venture]

I'd like it if the new ones had moves based on the reworked gem staves coming to vanilla but I don't think it'll be the case

[blazing field]

They don't really. crawl. or scuttle

except for maybe the t1 ones

emerald clinger

cuz it clings to the ceiling

:)

[solemn crest]

Topaz forg

[blazing field]

Amethyst Nibbler
Topaz Hopper
Emerald Clinger
Sapphire Swimmer
Ruby Rammer
Diamond Glider

Maybe??

[polar tide]

i liek the old one becaus it flufy

[pulsar cobalt]

idk if we r gonna get a new colloquial name for them but i definitely think theyll get new names

[blazing field]

the fluffer

i think each one of them having a unique name would be fitting

[pulsar cobalt]

the fluff

[blazing field]

I feel like they're all distinct eough to do so

i like the idea of it all being

[blazing field]

Gem + (Adjective relevant to its behavior)

Amethyst bites you, but it dosen't hrut, so Nibbler
Topaz is a frog, so Hopper
Emerald is a gorilla guy that clings to the ceiling
Sapphire iirc will be a semiaquatic fox-salamander
Ruby is the big heavy guy that headbuts you
And diamond has wings and is a dragony looking thing

It's still sorta derivative of "gem crawler" but instead of them all being crawlers. its smth else

cuz those mfs aint crawling

[pulsar cobalt]

kinda wishing triangle keeps the idea of sapphire being fox based because

fomx

cute animal

[blazing field]

I think the idea is to keep it still

fox salamander creature

i like how both the t2s are chimeras

fox salamander

gorilla chameleon

[solemn crest]

What does the sapphire fox say

[polar tide]

if it fox i want it fluffy neck ruff fromr the older emerald man

[hushed hazel]

glim

[polar tide]

i just want a reptile with a fluffy neck ruff i think its cute

[pulsar cobalt]

and the t3 are solo fantasy animals, because as we all know, dinosaurs are fantasy

[blazing field]

true.

[solemn crest]

[blazing field]

ruby crawler is basically

a ground dragon from rezero

lol

[pulsar cobalt]

ok.

is this your new rot

[hushed hazel]

girl who just watched rezero: this creature reminds me of rezero

[solemn crest]

Amethyst one looks like a nice little guy

[pulsar cobalt]

scal is kinda like echidna because uhmmmmm theyre both witches.

[blazing field]

i mean but they do really look similar

but tbf its just because theyre both theropod looking guys with small front limbs

lol

[solemn crest]

Idk what yall are talking about but I interpreted this as “an echidna” and thought of knuckles so now scal is kinda like knuckles

[polar tide]

hi

[blazing field]

knock knock it knuckle

hi alex carnymassacre

[blazing field]

but also yes i think it is this has quickly moved up into my top 3 anime ever

when the WRITING is GOOD

[pulsar cobalt]

see cheeses pfp? thats echidna

[blazing field]

Well jho is a bit too heavily built to be a ground dragon

ruby crawler is more like

lightweight

like a ornithomimid kinda

jho is more like

a trexosaurus

ruby crawler and ground dragons boh just look like a featherless gallimimus p much lol

[pulsar cobalt]

oh wow patrasche grew up 😊

[blazing field]

patrasche would never ..

anyways

i like the crwaler design theyre cool .

[spice hound]

The crawlers designs are epic

[fathom girder]

They're cool

[still bluff]

0p

[fathom girder]

I just hope they release eventually

[digital sun]

new update?

[blazing field]

They will

Again

[spice hound]

Eventually

[blazing field]

I heavily doubt that iterating on them is bottlenecking

That's not how development usually works

They're not planned for hogwild anyways so

[spice hound]

You would know since you’re calamity mod itself and thus must know how development for it works

[blazing field]

yep

im calamity mod

jokes aside just going off my gamedev knowledge

and how artists tend to operate on teams like this

[hushed hazel]

you are now thorium mod

[blazing field]

ofc i could be wrong

ok.

[fathom girder]

It isn't, it's just. The third iteration

Surely now it's properly designed

[blazing field]

Again, second

I wouldn't count the firsti ngame designs

Not made by triangle, old , etc

[digital sun]

wtf

[digital sun]

add the .tmod for realism

[fathom girder]

HELL YEAH

[hard hearth]

is this d2

[fathom girder]

Favorite d2 gun right there

[blazing field]

i do not get this reference

that is a gun

[hard hearth]

[solemn crest]

Witherhoard will forever be best gun

[blazing field]

[spice hound]

Holy moly is that the actual thorium mod in calamity-update-talk holy moly

[blazing field]

yep

im Thorium Mod

[spice hound]

Thats not calamity mod so off topic

[hard hearth]

true

[solemn crest]

It’s on topic

[hard hearth]

offtopic begone

[solemn crest]

It’s the third iteration

[pulsar cobalt]

thorium mod what are your thoughts on thorium

[spice hound]

You shall be executed by firing squad for being off topic

[solemn crest]

But I don’t wanna

[pseudo vector]

pickle joe!!!

[spice hound]

No I meant thorium mod was being off topic too since thorium mod isn’t calamity mod

[hard hearth]

omg

[hard hearth]

pickle! :D

[blazing field]

jhoe

[pseudo vector]

everyone's favourite hungry murder pickle

[hard hearth]

him

nom

[solemn crest]

Murder pickle is a phrase I was not expecting to hear today tbh

[pseudo vector]

i've been playing rise so i've missed having jho around

bazel fills the invader monster niche well enough

[hushed hazel]

he is a pickle and he Kills everything because he's a fat fuck

[polar tide]

gem crawler iterations are absolutely not bottlenecking anything lol

[blazing field]

itd be a bit more questionable if like suddenly triangle decided to resprite divien swine

that already has finished animations and is implemented ingame

[hard hearth]

technically speaking bagel is just a straight up superior invader than jho

[polar tide]

if he did that i think we collectively as a team would kill him

[blazing field]

that'd actually be more like "Ok but couldnt you have done this earlier" moment

yeah lol

but just like

iterating on things that arent even planned for the update yet. thats fine

let artist cook

[pseudo vector]

i do enjoy pinecone a lot

[spice hound]

Triangle you should respite the divine swine to be more yellow

[pseudo vector]

funny explodey wyvern

[polar tide]

bro enjoys pinecone

[blazing field]

explodey pinecone vs sharp pinecone

are there any other pinecones in mh besides bazel and seregios i cnat think of any

[pseudo vector]

not off the top of my head

monster hunter monsters are great inspiration for creature design

[polar tide]

i wish i was a pinecone

[blazing field]

they are

i mean balahara was inspo for desert scourge so :D

[polar tide]

we will need one for the plushie which will happen

[solemn crest]

Please make it canon size

Can we get like a teaster of a a random pixel of scoog’s new sprite

[polar tide]

[hard hearth]

the humble 3 meter worm:

[hushed hazel]

i will kill a man irl for a scoog plushie

[hard hearth]

that's not nice

you shouldn't kill a man

irl

[solemn crest]

Will it be more of a fat chud than Draedon plushie?

[spice hound]

No do kill people its fun

[hard hearth]

killing irl is very overrated

[polar tide]

you have no idea how fat the chuds of the future are.

[solemn crest]

i think the generation growing up with ai bullshit is having a far worse time than we did

[half lava]

this is true

[solemn crest]

At least the slop from when I was a kid was human-made slop

[pseudo vector]

at least the shit we saw on the internet was at least somewhat believable and made by people

[polar tide]

there is so much i could say about the internet and how growing up on it damages you but i dont want to talk about it in calmain

[pseudo vector]

nowadays its harder than ever to figure out what's real and what's not real

[half lava]

thats what the money club is for

[solemn crest]

Talk about it in #calamity-update-talk

[viscid urchin]

The damage that 3-4 years of ai has done to us...

[polar tide]

im not sure id talk about it in patreon either its heavy stuff

[half lava]

i personally am used to it

but i understand

you don't wanna, you ain't gonna

[polar tide]

the difference is that back then stuff took a significant amount of effort to fake (photoshop/editing skills)

you also didnt have to look at the most mundane shit and wonder if it was fake. like a drawing. or a picture of a cat

[pseudo vector]

now you can just put a prompt in an ai generator and boom

[half lava]

nothing can top the majesty of the pancake bunny

[solemn crest]

Gen AI has been impossibly detrimental

[pseudo vector]

misinformation is so common now that it's really disturbing

[rotund venture]

I find most AI videos have this strange smoothness to them which makes it v easy to distinguish

similarly with photos actually

[pseudo vector]

gen ai has done irreparable damage to the internet and is now doing immense damage to the environment as well

[solemn crest]

We need more data centers!!!

[polar tide]

i feel disconnected from other people to the point of (non literal) psychosis and hearing people at college casually talk to eachother about ai like it's already an integrated part of their day to day lives has not helped

[pulsar cobalt]

agreed

[solemn crest]

Proud to say I never used Gen ai throughout college

[pulsar cobalt]

i want more of that sloppy slop slop

[solemn crest]

I got my C’s like a real chud

[twin juniper]

Guess who else eat slop

[rotund venture]

hearing other students talk about it constantly has been IMMENSELY frustrating

[half lava]

human made slop as god intended

[rotund venture]

also having a professor accuse me of writing an assignment with AI simply because I have a good vocab is not fun

to bee fair if i was the kinda chud to use ai i probably would be nice to it as well

not the point

i will painstakingly write a fucking essay using my own brain and hands for hours on end if it means not using chatgpt

the absolute worst part of it was when I introduced people to d&d and they used ai to generate character art and I just

[polar tide]

there's nothing i can really say about ai art that hasn't already been said a thousand times but if you use ai to make art you will literally never be able to understand why humans started making art in the first place and your brain has been permanently rotted into a state of hyper consumption

[solemn crest]

They know we hate it

They know it reflects poorly on them in public appeal

[half lava]

they want you to like it

[spice hound]

Ai chatbots are especially insane when they’re based on like a real person or something because like its very creepy from a fundamental perspective since like its doing stuff kind of with them without consent and stuff

[rotund venture]

OH speaking of ai huge PSA

if you use google drive and have been having issues recently

go to setting, connceted apps, and disable gemini
