Did spend like 15 minutes before posting that trying to figure out if the most idiomatic thing would be 普通话歌词, 歌词普通话 or like 歌词的普通话 or something. I don't trust the robots. I don't trust the robots, man
I withdraw my "well, at least the Canadian Liberals aren't turning fash like the American Democrats and UK Labour" sense of relief

@nprofile1q... I would think that this is an effective way of getting wishlist clicks off social media, but I don't think I really understand how to use social media as a promotional tool anymore.
I don't usually play Steam demos, personally. I'd play an in browser demo tho. What I want out of a trailer/demo personally is just a quick sense of "what is this game like mechanically, moment to moment?".

@nprofile1q... Sorry, what I mean is… imagine the way I found out about your game is social media… "oh, I can briefly play an in browser demo" is more compelling to me than clicking over to a Steam page and watching a trailer. If I'm already on a Steam page… I'm not sure if I'd even notice the trailer, how would that fit into the store page? I'd have to scroll way down to see it, no?
I buy games on Itch just as happily as I do on Steam (although if both exist I usually buy Steam). I might be unusual

@nprofile1q... This does a lot more for me than a Steam trailer would have! I'm constantly just skipping to 30 seconds into the trailer in hopes that's where the gameplay is.

the idea that a "singularity" is possible is just the idea that you can turn "mistaking a sigmoid for an exponential" into a millenarian religion
@nprofile1q... my assertion was that the singularity, as described by ray kurzweil, accurately describes the invention of writing, and i don't see why it would be more interesting if the self-improving intelligent mechanism were made of etched silicon instead of CHNOPS nanomachines. it is harder for etched silicon to self-reproduce, anyway. the CHNOPS nanomachines just do that.
i think human advancement *has* followed an exponential-*looking* curve since that point, albeit with a low base.

@nprofile1q... if i can make an OS that runs wasm/wasi executables, then I can potentially run other people's software without anyone.
To be clear, I don't want to do this. What I really wanted to do was sometime in the next year learn the Rust uefi package and port my RISCV/Mister video game to run on raw UEFI "without an OS". That would be an interesting learning project without being a tarpit.

The problem I've got right now is I can write software at any level of the stack— programming languages, webtech, GUI, graphics programming, I can actually make my own CPUs, not good ones but I can make them— *except* operating systems, that is the one thing I haven't had the chance to learn. And that's the thing I most want to be able to do rapid work on right now because I am desperate to either replace Linux or fork it from just before they adopted this policy https://docs.kernel.org/process/coding-assistants.html
