Yeah, but the machine learning is the art, not what it produces. Don’t get me wrong, generative ai is super cool. However, justifiably or no, most people don’t see someone who just types prompts into generative ai as an artist.
A lot of incremental games I see are in perpetual development. They are never truly finished, the developer always promises that another content update is around the corner. And those content updates get released, and the games eventually get really big. They grow to have prestige layers approaching the double digits, or months...
Sure it is. My current specific conciousness won’t get preserved, but guess what, I lose consciousness every night. From the perspective of the me that arrives on the other end, it’ll be just like waking up. They have all my memories, mannerisms, personality, there are no differences between them and me besides the fact that my conciousness doesn’t continue. From their point of view, they have continuity of existence. From their perspective, and from outsiders perspective, there’s no difference, for all intents and purposes they are me. Why would I feel bad about them living our life? “You are dead”. When I go to sleep, my conciousness ends, and in the morning someone who has my memories and personality and mannerisms gains consciousness. I really don’t see the difference.

Go through your body from the head down, tensing each muscle for a few seconds and then letting it relax, one at a time. Then, work really hard at really envisioning somewhere, seeing all the detail in your mind’s eye. Focus on it. Imagine feeling the physical sensations of being there. The gentle sway of a hammock, the warmth of the sun radiating down on your face. Giving your mind something to focus on lets it stop being so active, and lets it relax. It’s like having the tv on late at night putting you to sleep.
With the physical relaxation from the tensing and loosening and the mental relaxation, sleep should come much easier. It does take practice though.
All the vibrating alarm clocks I could find do not sync with your phone, and have to be set manually. I thought about getting an Arduino, but then I will have to build the whole thing by myself. The only logical conclusion I could come up with is to get a programable vibrator. But most of them are either very expensive of look...
Ok I like to take coconut oil, the kind that’s a solid at room temp, melt it, and let it solidify in ice cube trays at room temp. Then, when I go to put a plug in long term, I pop a lube cube in first. Easy long term lubing
Stuff could be anything, digital or physical, but the idea is of discussing and doing it as a hobby without any pressure or push to make it a business or side-gig. Nothing against that, simply that communities/groups with that atmosphere are easy enough to find as-is.
