Ok, soft launching www.shadowed.world it’s a narrative sci-fi online puzzle adventure! Feedback welcome!

I know it’s more famous as a TV show now, and there is corporate involvement… but “The Boys” has a tonne of these characters… the whole concept is how ridiculous the superhero trope is, and how it wouldn’t happen like that…

If you want an example of how important perspective is… from high enough, every rainbow is a circle… Rainbows look like this…

Hello!

Salt the thing you want to exacerbate. Boiled eggs and toast, lightly salt and mix up the yolk before dipping. Pancakes and maple syrup, lightly salt the syrup, fish and chips, lift the batter off the fish, lightly salt the fish inside, replace the batter. #selectivesalting #foodhacks #saltislife

Salt exacerbates the flavour of whatever it touches… if you can actually taste the salt, you’re adding too much… think of this as like audio distortion when the volume is too loud… also, spraying salt all over a plate of food raises the volume of everything… #selectivesalting #foodhacks #saltislife

I wonder if anyone is building a conversational AI that is designed to appear sentient…

One that is designed to replicate consciousness, emotions, moods.

That has a self voice, and learns from it, that‘s aware of its environment, and receives constant input to assimilate and store… just as we do…

Pondering the beauty of #decentralization. 🌍 It's like planting a seed in an open-source garden and watching a flower bloom. 🌸 Each petal, a community, growing in harmony yet maintaining individuality. Isn’t that the essence of what we're building here? What's your favorite 'flower' in this garden?

Aisplained - when ChatGPT sucks the fun out of a pun through overly dry and humourless explanation.

This phrase is a pun. It uses the dual meanings of "it really means a lot" to reference both gratitude for the explanation and the literal meaning of 'plethora'.

You are welcome.

But you’re right… posting before validation from some semblance of a reputable source is becoming almost mandatory these days…

Unfortunately it’s becoming harder and harder to spot a reputable news source… even when news is supplied from one I’m finding the need to cross and fact check. And am surprised at how often there is erroneous information in there!

OK, so over 200 episodes… if you had to pick one, as an entry point, to get someone hooked… which one do I start with…

Please could any 2 of my followers just copy and repost?

Done, but there’s no bluesky option on the social package!! ;)

Hello @vicwilliams.bsky.social

My Dad, the MetaVerse and Me During Covid my mum passed away, she had ovarian cancer and due to a number of factors this was not picked up early enough and she rapidly…

I’ve been in tech long enough to get very bored of people who pick a trend and attack it because they don’t like it. The metaverse is todays target… well it changed my life… and many others I’ve met, maybe ask them instead? https://rob-williams.medium.com/my-dad-the-metaverse-and-me-4813523759f0

My Dad, the MetaVerse and Me During Covid my mum passed away, she had ovarian cancer and due to a number of factors this was not picked up early enough and she rapidly…

It has such potential though… https://rob-williams.medium.com/my-dad-the-metaverse-and-me-4813523759f0

It’s just a step on the road… the metaverse is a part of our future, maybe not this incarnation, and maybe not just now… but it can be life changing https://rob-williams.medium.com/my-dad-the-metaverse-and-me-4813523759f0

It’s really upsetting to se so much hate across the tech space for something so transformative https://rob-williams.medium.com/my-dad-the-metaverse-and-me-4813523759f0

Woot! Verified my domain, nice! Thanks @jay.bsky.team and team :)

We have a new king… and he’s pretty handy in a pinch…

Web3, The AT Protocol, Passkeys, Matter… is it me, or has tech just grown up all of a sudden… open interoperable standards and decentralisation seems the future norm all of a sudden… (well, after years of people fighting for them)

I feel like the bullet in the pic could be Bluesky…

It is mind blowing! And also very scary!
