Looks amazing! Would love to know when the weapon is charged and how much each shot takes.

Btw, this game reminds me of BBS door games. Great stuff.

Re:Show HN: Biblos – Semantic Bible Embedded Vector Search and Claude LLM on Saturday October 28, 2023 @01:35AM (#38047433)
Very cool project, AI is definitely going to transform religion and make it far more relatable and understandable. If anyone is interested, we released Noah's Bible that has full ChatGPT integration. You can click on any verse and get a full summary and chat about any verse.

One thing we also added is imagery, generated by AI, which makes the Bible far more pleasant to read.

Re:Adobe Account Expiration. Michael Tsai on Sunday June 25, 2023 @12:09PM (#36469731)
I got this email and I went to sign in and my account is gone even though the email said I have 90 days. I guess they deleted everything and all my Behance data as well.
Re:Dragonfly – The most performant in-memory data store on Earth on Sunday May 21, 2023 @05:19AM (#36019180)
There was a great HN post of DragonFly vs. some other databases: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31796311.

I am not sure if the latest version improves performance but those are some bold claims of Dragonfly.

most of the federal budget is actually used for entitlement programs.
Re:Apple Blocks Coinbase wallet, for not giving them a 30% cut of exch... on Thursday December 01, 2022 @05:55PM (#33824173)
This is not what is happening here. It's worse. If you want to send a NFT to another address, you need gas to complete the transaction.

Coinbase does not get gas fees to complete the transaction. This isn't a swap. This isn't an exchange for ETH.

Absurd and I've downvoted you.

Re:FTX’s Collapse Was a Crime, Not an Accident on Wednesday November 30, 2022 @06:26PM (#33809545)
FTX isn't DeFi. It is a centralized exchange, similar to a bank or a brokerage. DeFi, ironically, is the complete opposite of this.
Re:FTX US’s wallets appear to be hacked, $600M leaving the exchange on Saturday November 12, 2022 @02:33AM (#33570942)
This isn't crypto. This is a centralized exchange with a centralized website, with centralized databases, that is run and controlled by humans. In fact, if you use a centralized exchange there is no use of blockchain for the most part.

There's a literal saying, "Not your keys, not your coins". Only if people would listen.

Re:FTX Token, FTT down by more than 80% in less than 24 hours on Tuesday November 08, 2022 @03:27PM (#33523841)
You really do not with Bitcoin. If there are local regulations with declaration, sure. But the fees are dramatically lower to move the funds than using banks.
Re:FTX Token, FTT down by more than 80% in less than 24 hours on Tuesday November 08, 2022 @03:23PM (#33523793)
I am going to go out on a limb here and say you have not moved any significant amount of money around, especially internationally. Trying moving $250,000, between the paperwork, back and forth, fees, it is a nightmare.

Some quick feedback here. The knob for me is not needed but backlight would be nice. Overall, love it.
Re:Notice of termination of Twitter merger agreement on Friday July 08, 2022 @05:40PM (#32027581)
It is quite easy to prove twitter is mostly full of bots. You do not even need a firehose to come to that conclusion.
