@squarism Yeah, pretty much, in houses with plaster & lathe before drywall
@SnoopJ Hmm, discord makes this a bit confusing. Here's a different link that a "share" button gives me
@maddiefuzz WOO!
Oh holy crap, I think my brain finally worked out what a bunch of the synth sounds in 757 by 100 gecs reminds me of.

Like I replayed and replayed this bit of 757 at around 37 seconds in because something in my brain kept going "unf" and finally it turned up "Katamari"
Especially at around 2:42 when the song really gets going hard https://youtu.be/5_T16wbFx_k?list=PLD35EB46AE98BA8ED&t=162
Huh. Cyberaktif has a new album coming out next February? https://cyberaktif.bandcamp.com/album/endgame
I remember back in like 1991, I bought both Cyberaktif's "Tenebrae VIsion" and Paula Abdul's "Spellbound" at the local record store on the same day. The owner told me I was going to sprain my brain. He was right.
Also, a few years later in college, I sold my Paula Abdul CDs for Taco Bell money but I still have the Cyberaktif CDs.
Still, that Paula Abdul's "Spellbound" album used QSound for 3D sound. That was kind of rad! Also used in the arcade by Super Street Fighter II.
LRT: this "Prompt Injection and LLM Security" talk in Discord is happening right now
Also looks like this "Prompt Injection and LLM Security" talk is streaming on YouTube for folks who can't get into the Discord (also probably handy for watching as a replay later)
Amused that lots of words like "terrifying", "nerve-wracking", "severe hallucinations", and "intractable vulnerabilities" are being uttered
@ramsey Yeah, I want to say I bought my first CD player for about $400 in 1990? I think it was a Phillips unit, boxy hi-fi component sort of thing. I know I had a little cheap JVC CD player in my car the year after, probably $150? Those things came down in price pretty fast in the early 90s
Also remembering that my first-ever CD purchase was "Decade" from Duran Duran
All this prompt injection stuff makes me think all this LLM / AI stuff is just a genre of "genie grants 3 wishes" stories where the protagonist keeps flubbing the phrasing of the wish
That thing when you hear a notification sound that you've never heard before or haven't heard in a long while and have sudden dread over what it possibly could signify
(the instance that prompted this toot turned out to be a random browser tab open to a shopping page where a chat assistant thing popped open with a few xylophone notes to pester me)
me want honeycomb
(wherein I'm printing some hexagonal grid wall organizer parts to host shelves on which the knickknacks I've been printing will sit, thus the printer is solving the clutter problem it generated)
@rooster The whole thing about sending original irreplaceable documents to government offices is so nerve-wracking
@astatide Can confirm that listening to and seeing Prince as a kid was FORMATIVE
Just found & ripped my DVD set of Rush: Chronicles, so now I'm bingeing Rush videos after lunch.
It's almost a good thing that I sometimes go long spans of not listening to these guys, only to revisit and remember what I like about them.
Buncha goofy dorky caremad Canadians.
And seeing Neil Peart playing, I really don't think he wanted to be famous or in the limelight on stage. He just wanted to build a mech suit of drums and hide in there.
I mean, seriously, look at his shit ROTATING and tell me he wouldn't be an ace mech pilot
Also look at these nerds orbiting Aimee Mann
