  • This is my point: if you can’t afford a server powerful enough then don’t use an AI.

    If you can’t afford a server but use an AI you have to accept some compromises. One of those is to be spied on. The true question isn’t to use AI but to accept to be heard, recorded, analysed, and perhaps used against you.

    A start-up is a company which hopes to be bought by a bigger one. To be bought at the higher price, they need to have something a big company would like to have. Like data. Especially since those companies are cutting corners to reach the market and survive.

    Some aren’t bought but it’s not the majority.









  • Ironsmith neither because it isn’t from Tomkin Press.

    About urban stuff, the author said something called Crucible:

    A fair bit leaner than SI. I’d like to build a few supplements that flesh out various aspects of Starforged.

    Rough plans for this one (all very subject to change)

    • Build a canonical megacity (the titular Crucible) for your version of the Forge or other sci-fi setting
    • Oracles for city locations and encounters
    • Some additional oracles for NPCs, as befits a populous setting
    • City factions
    • Guidelines for urban chases & chase oracles
    • Guidelines for building a reputation
    • Vehicle guidelines/specs
    • Cyberware/augment guidelines
    • Moves for city traversal
    • Mission generators
    • Troupe-based play as members of a criminal/insurgent faction

    I am talking of times with kids, in the middle of a story, saying that they would have discussed more with the dragon because the princess would have been boring (yes, it’s a sexist story in this example). This is also a source of role-playing.

    Nop. The concept goes farrer is the past, from people inventing stories together to just people asking “what if”.

    All isn’t from DnD. There was something before. DnD may be the first one to have been commercialized (and successful enough to be remembered).
