Haven't gotten mine, either. Email said I'd get an invite like that night, but one never came.

For gaming, I'd suggest https://mstdn.games. Not entirely sure if NSFW is allowed, but I've never come across it, personally.

Several years ago, I contracted for a short time as a software engineer for a team within Walmart that was working on an in-house digital label solution. It was pretty cool as it was all custom hardware running Android. I think the project probably could've been run better, though. I'd guess that's part of the reason they have taken so long to deploy some type of digital label solution, and ultimately went with a third party product.

I'd recommend trying LM Studio (https://lmstudio.ai/). You can use it to run language models locally. It has a pretty nice UI and it's fairly easy to use.

I will say, though, that it sounds like you want to feed perhaps a large number of tokens into the model, which will require a model made for a large context length and may require a pretty beefy machine.

Out of all the cars you've owned, which one holds a special place in your heart as the absolute favourite. in c/[email protected]

The first car I owned is by far my favorite. It was a ‘91 Miata (NA). It was very easy to learn how to work on it and fix things. It really made me love driving. I want to buy another Miata at some point.

What's a piece of classical music that everyone knows but most people don't know they know? in c/[email protected]

I was looking for someone to mention this. It’s used so often in movies and television. I’m not surprised that people are saying they’ve never heard it. It’s always just some background music played in a scene, it’s never the focal point.
