Bubs

I'm afraid not. The only attachment point is the round hole on the right.

Hammer is the correct term, but that's not what they are. They come from a machine.

Not for a piano. It's more industrial.

Are you able to share pics of your collection?

I would suggest looking at datapacks for anything similar. It's insane what can be done in them, so I wouldn't be surprised if they could do what you want.

Translation for the lazy: "The voices are getting louder"

As a long time Calvin fan, that there is an edit. First off it's a typeface instead of hand written. Secondly, those panels are originally about Calvin Ball (and I think specifically about bed time)

The way I see it, all these general LLMs and AIs are just the learning tools for the actual future use for ML.

Companies are throwing money and research at them for easy gains, but once the bubble pops, most of them will be irrelevant and will die off. Once there's no reason to "move fast and break things", the actual slow and methodical research will start happening to find where ML belongs in this world.

In the future, specialized companies will utilize all the research being done today to craft more focused tools that do things that machine learning is actually useful for.

ML tech isn't going away. It just needs to mature to the point where these useless bots aren't worth the effort.

I would say to go find some people. Go find a local gaming store, and look for something like a DnD or tournament group to join. Maybe look for some other sort of group: camping, biking, robotics, whatever.

Get to know some people, make some friends. Once you get to know people and get close to them, then you can open up about your struggles. Good friends will want to support you and help you out.

Find some people and then you won't have to struggle alone. Plus, all the fun things you can do with them will be a good distraction from your addictions, and maybe, over time, your addictions will lessen.

I would highly recommend the Bobiverse series. A fairly grounded sci-fi series that explores the idea of von numan probes (uploading people's consciousnesses into machines that travel between stars and can self replicate).

The series is quite clean, but still explores deep and more mature topics such as: if you clone an AI consciousness, is it still you?

Would you like a little constructive criticism on your art? Nothing drastic, just something small that pops out to me.

Assuming that the pic is real, and from looking at a radiation color chart, I would have to guess the metal is in the 1000-1500°F range. While it initially looks like a brighter temp, the pic is at night time so it's likely lower than it looks. Aluminium wouldn't hold up at that temp, so it's likely cast iron or steel.

As for what's causing those temps, it's hard to say. My first guess is some sort of combustion exhaust that hasn't been properly cooled. Maybe some sort of ultra high temp furnace or heater that hasn't been properly set up? This doesn't seem very likely to me because that pipe going to the ground makes little sense for a furnace.

My second (and more plausible) guess would be a high voltage electrical short turning the pipe segment into a massive heating element. No idea what machine could do it, but I assume it would need the amount of power used in something like an induction furnace.
