Happy Sunday!
First AND a Golden Button! What a Weekender!
The square bases helped
Just wait until you see my next army project. It’s hip to be square
Form squares.
Could also manage traitors by using oposing colour. ie black Jack is traitorous to red suits. That way there is a way of clearing bottle necks but also a way of blindly getting a traitor.
So many beautiful tanks!
This is a fascinating difficult topic that can lead to a corrupt system or destroying companies. If it is so easy to generate art and and text how long will it take that it will also design beautiful models that you can then print yourself. If that happens why do we need companies like GW, Corvus Belli and the like, you only need the creativity of the correct phrase and that can lead to these companies closing down. Will companies start using programs like these to create their content and firing their employees as they are redundant and then charging… Read more »
Hi XLBSers.
Man down ?
Fabulous work on the tanks, John.
Yay Gerry is cured he’s doing rigging. ?
Ooh congratulations @oriskany that’s a fabulous looking gaming table an figures.
Thanks very much, @Zorg – although again I think John Sowerby & missus deserve most of the credit on this one. 😀
Yay one for the team to keep the good fight going.
I can’t let you do that Dave/Warren.?
A fabulous show guy’s, Wall-E is the future.?
Happy Sunday.
That tank looks really good and I’d certainly use it as a rhino. I’d love to see one side by side with a rhino to see how much bigger it is.
If you do an AI 40k scenario can it be The Quest for Rogul Dorn’s Undercarriage?
I won the games of dead man’s hand I’ll have you know!
Then we tried block wars and my brain shut off…but at least I won something
I ask ChatGBT – “Why is Warzan from the XLBS Show Cult of Games a human beeing and not any kind of artifical intelligenz?” This is the answer. “Warzan from the XLBS Show Cult of Games is a human being and not an artificial intelligence because the show is meant to be a comedic parody of the gaming industry. Warzan is a character that is meant to represent the average gamer, and his interactions with the other characters in the show are meant to be humorous and entertaining. He is not an AI because that would take away from the… Read more »
Happy Sunday.
I hope you are having yourself a bubblebath and are able to watch the Greatest Movie Ever Made.
Weekender… Sunday time 00:00 yes… old men… we all are… 01:00 time what is time… *sings* 01:15 I only read “Justin”… there is no John. 02:15 under pressure *humm* 03:00 The before times! REMAIN INDOORS! 03:12 Is @warzan having a stroke? 8) 05:30 Still the wrong colours if you ask your internet 07:00 The one with the biggest gun is called Warren? Compensate much? I’d go for the smallest 😉 10:45 heavy metal! 11:30 That looks cool but inherently to delikate for outdoor use…. all the sand gets in there… 15:40 almost scared to ask… but how much is that… Read more »
Holy hell! A Golden Button! Thanks very much everyone!
I should say John Sowerby and his wife Jean deserve most of the credit on this one. The Mobile Infantry and bugs are all theirs, they take this game around to clubs and cons and run it participation-style. I just played the game, took the photos, and assembled the battle report.
The game was held at Das Krieg Haus gaming club, home of the South Florida Miniature Gaming club.
Thanks as always @Warzan , @brennon , @avernos, @johnlyons
does Chat GPT know the Greatest Movie ever MADE! I think not
oh and I dont think AI could come up with the genius that is a Brass Knuckle Dual Taco holder Jesus ButtPlug.
NO, I think not. That is all Man.
He’s right you know
HAPPY Sunday…oh the old 432 APC oh the memories of driving one of those…..i am looking at picture of me now at leaning on my wagon ..o h so young and so long ago….oh the AI program don’t like it the world relying on tech for to much, here come the people from the cartoon…WALL-E.
ChatGBT is an interesting tool. Explain to me how this does not take the place of all creative people. Anyone can have an idea, talented people get paid to use their talents to make money and have a lifestyle based on income from their talents. Now untalented people can do the same thing based on a computer program doing all the work and coming up with all the material. Explain to me how I am wrong about this.
on topic of AI, I’m glad to see you embrace this new technology that so many fear could be the creative death of our hobby. I’m so glad you brought um the possibility of a Netflix like site where you can watch full movies based on a short input and a pervious understanding of what kind of movies you like. I agree its a great time to be alive, but change always brings uncertainty, and we need people to stand up and challenged the current narrative. I don’t think anyone can possibly comprehend the change we are going to see… Read more »
@johnlyons You finally got time in the spotlight. Good on you. Now, more fi ished stuff to kill off your PoOP. @lloyd We see that you still have yet to finish painting anything. 5 models a year seems to be about right an estimate. @warzan Your gunge grunge splosh fetish metal music wasn’t something I needed to hear but it may be the leftover sentiments of your youth that just needed to be poured out. Thanks for giving me nightmare fuel. You did bring about the issue though posited by thr book ‘Man With the Positronic Brain’ (“Millennium Man” as… Read more »
Sabbath rhyming hell with hell went a bit under the radar there, but a LOL here!
A guest on the Instant Genius podcast covered Chat GPT recently. He saw a number of uses for it both as an academic and a poet. From that I viewed it as a solution to a blank page: you get the gist written down, then correct it to make it your own. It doesn’t replace art, or doesn’t have to. Similarly I read an artist using the image AIs as a sketching tool rather than pencil and paper.
We live in interesting times, and not necessarily in the Pratchett sense 🙂
