Mario vs Rabbits is a surprisingly fun turn based tactics game. It's something different gameplay wise from much of the switch library.

I saw someone mention Mario Odyssey. I hadn't owned a Mario game since Mario 64, but I thought it was incredible! It's just fun as all heck, and the surreal tone of the game kept me entertained. It has a bizarre mashup of "realistic" styles with the Mario universe. There isn't co-op exactly, but one person can play as the hat, helping out. Just, don't count it out because you aren't hyped about Mario. It's a quality game, and stands on its own merits.

Ugh... I'm deep on the ai sphere, and this seems like a bad idea to me. Gpt (let's face it, they are probably using open ai) can be deeply biased and arbitrary in it's evaluations.

For example, "Two apples and four oranges," might score better than: "4 oranges and 2 apples." for inscrutable reasons. Say, if the question spelled out the numbers, and the LLM has a weighted bias to favor overall textual consistently, it might produces a reason to dock points apparently unrelated to that weight, such as: "incomplete sentence." for the second answer, but not the first.

Students may also receive lower scores due to cultural biases towards certain phrases, and factors as straightforward as their name.

Finally, AI will hallucinate errors constantly if you ask it to evaluate text without any errors. Constantly. Consistently.

The attrition is slow, but every user lost to Linux is likely lost forever. After a year or so of totally free software, who is going to build a new windows compatible PC, buy a Windows 11 license, and pay for subscription service just to do word processing, or play a few incompatible games?

Windows completely overestimates people's willingness to throw out their laptop or PC just to get a new OS paintjob. For every person who does it, another one will leave their ecosystem forever.

I am a stranger on the Internet, so please take my input with a grain of salt.

  1. A lot can change from the age of six. You may test differently now, if you were to be reevaluated.

  2. Good academic performance, especially in standardized test, might demonstrate that you are intelligent, but they do not preclude other deficiencies.

For example, your post is disorganized, riddled with errors, and difficult to parse. You said, "am lazy to edit." This might indicate that you have difficulty communicating clearly, perhaps emerging from hyperactivity or focus issues. Autism often comes with communication issues.

Other people can't see your standardized test scores on your face, but they can judge you immediately by how you communicate. That might explain why people call you "stupid."

I might be completely off the mark. If you do find that communication is a difficult point for you, then the good news is you can practice anytime. Just talking with others, getting older, and building experience will bring you up to speed with diligence.

Finally, there is a negative social stigma to intellectual disability. Try not to buy into it too much. I used to teach 12 year olds how to read. Some people never learn how. They were all intelligent, they just need to step back a few grade levels and have a helping hand. Sometimes you do need to reach out for help.

I believe Librechat would achieve your goals, but you'd need a PC or server to host it in. It supports all major API.

Kobold light might with as well, and doesn't need to be hosted locally, but I don't think it supports Claude haiku specifically, for unknown reasons.

Additionally, the official Claude api workshop is pretty good on desktop, but it only supports Claude.

I mean, be careful. These llms can be honeypots for data. Like, if you're using it for cover letters, or work, you're sending tons of personal info to random websites.

I would recommend sticking to actual, reputable vendors for llms, or running your own. I have a GTX 1070 and can run some pretty decent models these days locally using koboldai.

Bing is probably the only way to use gpt 4 without paying for it, and Microsoft probably won't steal your bank account info.

There is almost no chance that it is truthfully based on gpt 4. If you want a free, open source llm with 32k context and generous limits, I recommend using huggingface.co/chat/

The nous-hermes model (you can select different models) is uncensored, and performs really well for a open source model. Plus, they have data controls so you can turn off data gathering per model. Huggingface is a reputable vendor, and doesn't claim to be something it isn't.

This feels... Scammy? Not to be accusatory, but gpt 4 is expensive to run. It is impossible for people to use it for free.

What llm is actually providing the response here? Either someone is footing the bill for an API and acting as a proxy, a situation which raises many red flags, or the model you're talking to is something far cheaper to run, like a mistral model.

Even the second case is sketchy. 😅

I'm a man, USA. In my personal experience, which doesn't mean very much, I've noticed that men seem unable to accept catastrophy. They try to reason or wiggle a way out of it. Woman seem more at ease when dealing with horrible events.

If I had to guess, it is a difference in perception and experience. Perhaps men are groomed to be "providers, problem solvers," and so they despair at unsolvable problems, while women are told not to "overreact," and to "support" others in times of crisis. Like a weird inverted effect of patriarchal society.

I've been in that situation with the shower and sandals before at my in-laws place. It's pretty nasty there.

I don't really have advice, personally. I hope your parent's understanding improves, and that you are able to reframe some of these triggers to be less troublesome.

Perhaps you could consider looking into doing an Americorps term to get out of the house? Some of them provide housing, so it's easy to jump into. You're going to have Contamination OCD to some extent wherever you are, so maybe some space from Mom and Dad could help? I've found parents can sometimes amplify issues.

It looks amazing, too! If Konami would hire a crew to go fix up the level scripting and maybe flush out some content, it'd compete with current releases
