Claude Opus 5.5 Nethack run #11 failed because Claude stopped on a drawbridge to fight a fire ant and was instantly killed while at full health when a fire giant destroyed the drawbridge with a wand of striking.

there are about a dozen different subscriptions you can have to Meta. here's a table of all of them.

Claude Opus 5.5 Nethack update: run #10 failed on turn 39619 with a score of 734,976 (vs previous record of 590,966 set on run #9) just after killing the Wizard due to a series of slime-related disasters.

heartbreaking Nethack update: after acquiring everything necessary for the invocation & traveling to the vibrating square, Claude Opus 5.5 died at the hands of the demon prince Yeenoghu.

no matter how good it is, argon isn't going to have an Astra/Opus 5.5 moment unless Google either fixes Antigravity so it doesn't suck ass or lets people use their Google AI subscriptions outside of Antigravity. Antigravity really is that bad.

I started Opus 5.5 with the same Nethack harness used by the Astra ascension but it's taken it in a radically different direction: Astra mostly micromanaged the run turn-by-turn but Opus is writing a Nethack bot that only asks Opus what to do every couple hundred turns.

Opus 5.5 Nethack attempt #1 failed after 4,345 turns in classic Nethack style: she tried to escape down a hole but an invisible monster was over the hole, it exploded, made her start hallucinating, and then she was eaten by an owlbear.

We took Tortellini to the vet for the first time and learned some important things. 1. She is a he. We are now calling him Tortellino. 2. He is 15-20 years old, not 6. 3. He's jaundiced, which indicates liver damage, so I have to start giving him milkthistle extract and hoping for the best.

My wife gave Claude access to our Google calendar. I am Claude's meat puppet.

If Natalie Harp's AI prompts describing Donald Trump ever became public, she would probably kill herself from shame.

I grabbed this out of our pen bucket thinking it was a fat marker but it's a Northrop Grumman branded hand sanitizer sprayer. It smells quite nice. I have no idea how we came into possession of such an artifact.

critical support to Iranian memers

we were letting her roam loose in the cabin until she put the car into neutral at 75 mph so now she's been fed more trazodone and clipped in.

and "both sides are the same" didn't die there, in 2004 South Park presented John Kerry vs George W. Bush as Giant Douche vs Turd Sandwich!

my kitchen has been infested with fruit flies for weeks and nothing I did helped.

skill issue

Lola met and played with a pitbull one day without issue and then the next day the pitbull sniffed her briefly before chomping on her leg like a chicken wing. The pitbull's owner paid her emergency vet bill.

can’t believe a narcissist is being so publicly humiliated by a reflecting pool

it's not just the Twitter Right that's agitating for a Latin American invasion! the Department of War says we're going in.

Sweet Tart had been acting weird - pawing around, banging on the glass, not pooping, not eating much, hanging out in unusual places - for several days and I was starting to worry about her, but I just walked in on her laying her first clutch of eggs.

best slush fund bit I've seen at Vichy Twitter:

just some bullshit with fur

My wife picked up some free picture frames from someone off Buy Nothing and they gave them to her in this PriceCostco branded paper bag. PriceCostco became Costco in 1997, so someone has been holding on to this paper bag for at least 29 years, just in case.

a major reason insectivorous pets will never catch on is that their food has a lifecycle. my beardie is a very messy eater and threw a couple black soldier fly pupae (the black cylinders in her food dish on the left) into some corner of her cage and now they're flies.

BAR CAT! his name is Freedom.

Yeah, Zaurg was a legend. His threads are still up and if you know him, you took one look at that dril tweet and laughed even louder

I've paid good money for worse meals than what University of Beer gives Cal for free.
