I've just realised how mad it is that bands only go up to H. My detached house in Hertfordshire is one band less than Buckingham Palace apparently...

"these large training events only happen every few years"

This is clearly untrue. OpenAI is *constantly* training to improve ChatGPT, as is every other major AI company.

It's like saying "driving doesn't use hardly any energy" if you're ignoring the whole petrol thing.

I know not many will agree with me, but Voyager's Timeless is up there; the set pieces, the cuts between the present and future, the twist on "time travel" and Harry Kim! It's an episode I can watch again and again.

Ofc I could list many others but I feel Timeless is underappreciated

If you ever wanna try to take the plunge and give DC homebrew a try, this is the ultimate "getting started" guide that everyone in the community uses: dreamcast.wiki/Getting_Star....

Then join the "Simulant" Discord server (link at the bottom of the KallistiOS GitHub repo), it's DCdev central.

For real though - I'm super excited for this game! I still love Voyager! #startrek

I just think it's ridiculous that if I did want to port my stuff to Apple platforms, there's no way to cross compile, and I'm not legally allowed to virtualize, and they don't support OpenGL or Vulkan, and I can't just install an app for testing without hassle, etc etc.

Just not worth it.

I tried both .glb and .fbx versions and I had the same issue. Your blocky characters set work fine though. Could you take a look at let me know if I'm doing something wrong? It could well be me! Thanks!
