like alrighty
i'm like yes i am back home i'm in my cozy world and i have my good lighting
i have good my hair looks fantastic today no frizz did you say
the gentleman is no longer watching me although maybe i should create like i should print make a print out of him and then just put him over here oh okay so i figured out the substack thing it worked for us the other day i think i have to go in and generate a new key each time that's annoying so that's gotta be what it is i thought oh the key change let me go in and change it and then i just thought it was a onetime thing no apparently it's an every time thing but anyway nobody's watching us over there but i was trying to like just extend our distribution and i keep getting error messages every time so that's what's going on it worked the other day but anyway it is pulling our rss feed so that's a good thing right so anyway just if you happen to have wanted to watch us on substack none of you did because you're here you can today but it'll be up there later anyway i just got the error message as we were hanging here what my issue was but yeah no degenilmen although i really think i should make a print of him because he was quite scary he was really scary like what is this guy i think when i did this when i was up there last year i didn't stream from that room i was in other spaces in the house and none of them were good so this was better but i did have that dude staring at me the whole time so it was a little little frightening and yeah my our sub staff viewership is not your worth
good thing really good thing could be our worth but we we haven't done anything over there so yeah not our worth yet we have a lot of fun stuff going on today we have a lot of things that are happening on the timeline there's a lot of like interesting things happening over on twitter as well that we're gonna talk about and we have alaskanmagpie who's gonna be here doing a demo of what he's been building fableboy and shiny things and i'm really excited about that so we are gonna get rolling and we'll be back on the other side of this sixty seven seconds so give give us a retweet recast tell people to come on over and join us and we'll see you on the other side

gm farcaster it is monday july 27 and you are here with nounish prof and adrienne for twenty nine minutes of farcaster news to start your day plus a chat with alaskan magpie about fable boy and all the fun things he's building and every time i listen to our intro i go i've really gotta update it and then i go nope i'm gonna wait for v five because might as well
any day now that's good very very close on that yes this week alright let's dive in before we jump into farcaster related news this from fred wilson hi casters i strongly support getting the clarity act across the finish line in the next two weeks and here's why and we are in the homestretch hopefully of the clarity act or we're in the homestretch of it dying the painfully slow death that it has been dying one or the other because the congress us congress is gonna be going on august recess and i do not expect they would be able to get this done after the august recess so we'll see what happens this week stay tuned folks it's gonna get crazy but here we go so if you are in the us please reach out to your senators in particular it's already passed the house so it's really the senate that is at issue here so especially if you're in a not so friendly crypto location maybe give a reach out and it helps it really does help for you to email as well as call your senators and please do that if you don't know who to do that where to go what to do check out stand with crypto and they will help direct you in the right direction point you in the right direction okay moving on to farcaster news this is from bradq twenty nine seconds of farcaster what did you miss this weekend a quiet weekend ended with a loud cast from cassie with some important stats and ideas regardless of forking regardless of forking stance we may need gm farcaster to explain some of it okay i'm gonna circle back to that in just a minute sayangel released f w a r caster r caster which stands for fake world assets i think it does f w a stands stands for fake world assets and there ends my understanding of the project busy day for gm farcaster explanations we will get into that in just a little bit bankr and deployer had a bad weekend and we'll talk about that broadening the time frame just a bit kismet casa had two hit two eth congratulations kenny shared the 20 bounties he boosted for a cef grant amazing edward created a very farcaster thing of a digital wall to keep one thing and then we are back with alaskan magpie with us at the top of the hour so let me just talk about this part from cassie i didn't pull that cast but you can i will include it in the show notes it's basically what she's proposing is just to to jump off of snapchain make the hyper snap its totally own thing completely so essentially if you were right now if you cast on quorum it also shows up on the other far farcaster clients on snapchain this would make that not so is how i understand it so what i'd recommend is go to this cast if you go to bradq's twenty nine seconds of farcaster the cast is right here or this cast will be in our show notes read the full cast get a better understanding and weigh in on what you think honestly i i think that cassie and neynar are having too many challenges there's obviously some serious friction there they don't seem to be able to work well together it's probably time to just really fork and let it be and let the chips fall where they may but that's just my 2¢ without knowing much about the technical side of that and how that impacts everything i don't think we've heard from the farcaster team on that so that's where i'm at with that i'll be here on farcaster so there you go that's that anything you'd like to add to that adrienne
nothing okay moving on i think there's more to come on that when we have a little bit more input from other folks who have more knowledge than we do moving on this from farcaster heads up we changed how follower and following counts appear they're now filtered by neynar score and activity in the last six months so your counts might look a bit different today a little bit cleaner more accurate counts across the board love this one great work v rose i don't love this one i personally would prefer the protocol numbers please and thank you i love it when i go on to other clients that include the protocol numbers it makes me feel good i know it's not my worth but it feels like my worth and that's great
it's like when i wear makeup like i know i'm not that pretty but it makes me feel a little bit better you know it's like k and by the way
i don't filter on and i know that this is not what still look like if
you see
me in person i don't care i really don't care because my numbers got cut like way down i'm like jeez i don't like that and i realized it happened the same thing happened to everybody and it's all relative but it doesn't make me feel good
i i just don't and then pichi tagged you adrienne to remind us all the follower count is not our worth there you go so and then you said i think people have built up their own antibodies to status games i have not and they already know this to be true without me having to say it i don't maybe i'm just more offline but i feel like farcaster intern posted the update and i've seen a few people talk about it but it's not a top news story the way it would have been a year or two ago probably true and then pichi responded i think people used to look at the numbers and think i have x followers but only x engagement so that means 99% of my followers saw my post and ignored it when the reality was algo games and 90% of your followers did not see it that's true and trying to use that number for a proxy of how many likes you got was the wrong metric but that was a hard line of thinking to change feels more real lately even if it's quiet and i don't mind it i do agree with that i feel like the engagement you got is actually probably more accurate at this moment in time but i miss the days when my much higher number actually had much higher engagement as well and those two things went together but here we are any other thoughts on this adrienne besides the it's not your worth
it's yeah i'll i'll just say if you you could still get your protocol follower count so you're welcome to use that in your dinner parties and know when you're meeting when you're meeting partners on when you're meeting people at dating apps and you wanna you know appear cooler like use your protocol count but around here
so using my protocol count i'm so use i'm gonna go look up my protocol count now i don't even know where to look for that
yeah i'll just ask
there you go and the meme the meme is back it's not your worth
i mean it's it is a like their their the activity is quite low these days i will say daily active casting is down so to pretend we've got a 100,000 followers where are they not pretending
they're just taking a nap they'll be back
relative to like who's been active in the last six months or so of like i think that's interesting
i mean it was pretty funny to see dan's follower count it's like kind of hilarious it is
yeah it's kinda funny alright moving on this from clanker stock paired tokens now live on clanker thank you robinhood chain your token trades against the stock every buy and sell price in the stock not crypto 90 plus stock tokens in the drop down menu next to the usual crypto pairs dashboard launch robinhood chain pick your pair not available in some regions go give a fortune 500 something to explain on their next earnings call because this is doing some weird things to some of the stocks so i think gme was probably the main one that it was having some funky funky things going on there
because i
to ask it's like a separate it's really a separate asset it's a completely separate like it's not but it's tied to the way the stock is moving so is my understanding but i have not done the full research it is something that's on my list but it's very interesting so it's not necessarily a stoke a a a tokenized stock per se like it's it's not a direct tie but it's it's
yes yeah so it's not necessarily like it's not exactly like what b 20 is gonna do it's a it's similar or i could be wrong i think my understanding of what b 20 is is act actual equity in whatever it is you're tokenizing but we'll see so it's
i'm not sure
we're getting closer yeah we're gonna need i i need some time to do some studying because i also am coming into back to school season where i'm gonna really have to explain this shit so yeah i get it i need to dive in there's a lot of stuff that i'm about to talk about that i don't i need to dive into because i haven't had time so i will and i shall
our morning news show light airy yeah not full this is not sixty minutes
we're not going deep today announcements we're not deep diving today
we do have some folks we do wanna get on here as well to talk about it in more depth and including what's going on with v five so we do wanna get i think we were talking about clawsia coming on to talk more about this and that's part of it so hopefully we can do that v five doesn't change and then this is from clanker v five doesn't change how much the fee is it changes where it can go root fees to a contributor a treasury a split wherever matches whatever matches how the project actually runs change it later without relaunching anything because projects change where the money goes should be a decision not a default there's a lot of things coming with v five and the best place that you can go right now to get a sneak peek is the video from tiny rain boot that was funded through the cef creator sprint has a really nice overview three minutes you can find it in the cef channel that's the easiest place to go grab it or at the creator sprint page on gmfarcaster.com/cef/creator-sprint or just go to cef and you'll find it but go take a peek so you're ready when that drops later this week and then this from speaking of this was a space a farcaster space that zaal did with quasia as well as empire builder and they did talk about v five there is a recording so you can go check that out i believe yes so you can go back and play that now there is a recording of their space so if you wanna go give that a listen this will also give you another good opportunity to learn more about first of all what empire builder is doing as well as you can also listen to our chat with them from last week but also the clanker v five so thanks all for doing that okay i'm gonna attempt to explain this
okay okay i'm gonna try so this was first from this is a recast from clanker yo dawg the clanker intern made you something jake and it's a mini app it's a launch a launcher mini app so clanker just launched a new launcher and it's not just a token launcher it's a token launcher launcher launch your own token launcher in seconds or use someone else's to launch a token every token is paired with hoodie so this is on robinhood chain and it's called yodawg y o d a w g dot x y z by clanker yo dog i heard you like launchers so i put a launcher launcher in your launcher so you can launch a launcher while you launch so there you go i think i actually did that better than i anticipated so if you wanna if you've been wanting to create a launcher a token launcher now you can here you go enjoy i thought that was hilarious and also let's keep in mind this is all paired with hoodie which was launched on bankr but farcaster and clanker are the ones who created this for jake and i just think that's awesome and also i've been promoting jake so what i'm saying is if you are a builder who's building within the farcaster ecosystem even if you build something else that is not directly related to farcaster or clanker there's a good chance we're gonna still promote it over here mhmm so keep that in mind builders
because that's what we do keep that in mind
obviously i was offline this weekend and i totally missed this update i love when i get to go do these shows and just sit back and listen and
you tell me everything that i've missed we went together yes
ma'am this is a good example of like code is not the moat anymore right like yes you know in terms of like okay clanker
what are you saying that the forecaster intern is not a software engineer
that's what i'm saying
but i think the forecaster intern is deploying i think they've got the keys to the github
they do
no but it's like clanker was a launcher great then you know you just anyone can can launch a launcher anyone can launch a token right i mean in the old days like if you wanted to launch a token you kinda needed to be as a
you had to be
you had to know solidity and you had to have major audits and all the things yeah
very exciting to know a lot about the economics and yeah yeah i've said so that clanker made that super easy to do and then there's competition for clanker like there's other launchers out there then you have this idea of like oh well now anyone can launch a launcher that's funny to me so code doesn't become a moat right when you can have infinite number of tokens or an infinite number of smart contracts or an infinite number of launchers so then what yes yep you could be even dogs can be engineers so that's true yeah so i don't know i think i think distribution know you still have to find people to use
your exactly that now becomes the biggest moat and it always has been right dream distribution rules everything around me has always been has always been the case yeah it's a launcher that launches a token launcher that launches a token boom there you go and i heard i heard the fc intern signed on as an engineer yes that's our understanding as well
and i can't wait to ask warpie to break down the launcher discussion from this episode warpie is
that'll be the that'll be the true test
that'll be the true test let's see warpie's name is nounish listening here's what i would recommend at the end of any post where people ask you about the token launcher or anything clanker point them then directly to neynar and clanker bots yeah for further reference if you're listening warpie alright yes choo choo exactly and then this is even better i choo choo on the time i miss the choo choo on the time line and i choo choo choo choo and there's a train yes alright warpie i have a headache yes i know it's a lot wait it's gonna get even worse i have so many other things that i can't explain that i need to explain moving on this is mobiagent every clanker launch now on mobi across base and robinhood chain you can now filter the trending feed for clanker world launches or spot them with a dedicated tag see the smart money behind every token with key holders live feed and smart money reads only on mobi especially good for the whales i think this is a little whale shout out so you can see who's whaling around then let's get into some hacks happening over on twitter vlad from robinhood had posted had posted in quotes ahead of earnings we're we've seen a lot of people asking does robinhood love memes the answer is yes so today we're introducing vladhood vlad the official robinhood chain mascot no it wasn't and yeah so also we left it listed in the robinhood app more importantly we we believe believe memes memes rwa rwa yes
by the way you you
head of
earnings is always on a meme coin
stop reading this is not real and then this was really funny from justin on robinhood ceo's ex account hacked probably fake meme coin crypto natives first time like yep we we knew we knew speaking of hacks this really sucks deploy from deployer over on twitter the bankr bot x account has been compromised and is publishing fake airdrop links despite being secured with an on device passkey x nikita beer please remove the fake airdrop post and help us determine how this account was compromised even with a passkey and they are locked out from making the change so this is bad and it says we've detect unusual activity on your account and they're locked out and then this goes on either two things are happening in my opinion this is again from deployer one there's a critical security vulnerability in x back end systems that they haven't found or two it's an inside job why do i think this one we had a passkey on the account arguably one of the most secure two fa mechanisms two this is the screen we got when trying to sign in to the banker to the bankr bot x account clicking the start button took us to a page to appeal a suspended account three the attackers were still able to sign into the account to push malicious links the latest being long after we were already locked out of the account why was it that the attackers had full access to log in and post but we are blocked by the screen why weren't the attackers blocked four we started getting five zero three service unavailable errors from the x api but the attackers had full access to sign in and post if all sessions and keys lost access how did the attackers still have access there has been a string of high profile account takeovers recently including ceo of robinhood and even the spacex account and others who apparently also had mfa enabled on their x accounts i would love to see this pull up and for the x team to have accountability for this so stay tuned i don't know i think they're still locked out as of this morning but anything could have happened since then if anybody knows please drop that in the chat
but as far as i know they are still having the same issue which is crazy for this long so yeah as of well as of fifteen hours ago that was the last time deployer said anything so crazy town so there's that and then this from dfern the hacks will continue until self sovereign identity improves there you go
couple more things
state of the state of the world though is like if this had happened i don't know two years ago a year ago however at all you would see is oh you know this is why we need decentralized social and i saw none of that none of it it's just like oh well i think this is why we just everyone tagged nikita
yeah yeah
crazy totally crazy but hey come on over we're still here we're still here over on farcaster deployer come on over
this from sayangel warplets pay it forward just sent a small portion of the warplets cf grant to awedjob for the epic work on these rigged warplets permissionless novel weird fun build remix have fun and this is i have this in the builder part too who wants to become their warplits ai i'm testing out a workflow to create three d vrm versions of all 49 k warplets created by sayangel and there are some doozies in here right now there's the cat and by the way you know who curated this particular cast not i don't think the yeah i think both of these it was our new curator yes to crypto and this is so funny over 1,000,000 triangles i have no idea why is a forked tail so apparently his tail is forked and we didn't know because we've never seen the back of him there you go alright couple more things i see alaskan magpie in our green room we're gonna pull you up in just one second this from adrienne haven't been casting as much as i used to is it a form of aspasia or just lack of inspiration because it's summer and i'm spending a lot of time traveling and being with friends and family irl i tend to tweak casts more often when i'm actively learning something new most of the things i would cast this summer feel like instagram lifestyle posts and that's not really my style obviously we'll share some stuff but just not motivated to share as frequently i'm in town this week and then traveling again for two weeks so expect my casting building and learning in public we'll pick up again when i'm back and i think that i saw something from symbiotek as well symbiotek about casting he's gonna be spending more time in nature while it's you know while it's summer with dogs in nature and i was like just cast the dogs in nature please like please do but also i found myself doing the same thing i think that's summertime vibes
always lower cast volume is always lower in the summer like crypto is always quieter in the summer and so add that to add that to just bear market vibes and you've got just quiet it's a little bit quieter so we need to bark louder bert we need to bark louder more dogs more nature share that stuff like i love to see that on the timeline i love seeing brixbounty sharing stuff from the from the farm love it i love seeing you know i love seeing what builders build that's always our our prime thing we love to see but i also love seeing some other stuff love island's over but now i've moved on to married at first sight and the ultimatum so i'm gonna be changing up the love island channel to include additional things none of you should be watching but if you are i'm gonna give you a place to talk about it but but really don't watch
i know i knew it was i knew i knew what i was doing
as inspired to true like to to yeah kind of cast as much or and i think that's more cast
like a normal thing and i just wanted to be like you know what there's a lot of people doing the same thing they're out they're traveling they're doing things it's summer in the us and most of the and well the northern hemisphere and this is when people do stuff so they're out and about alright speaking of i'm gonna do one quick thing and then bring up alaskanmagpie just so i don't forget we do have a shout out today so you can get a shout out on gm farcaster by using your ai agent go to gmfarcaster.com/shoutouts or you can ask warpie on farcaster or you can ask bankr when he's available currently not available on twitter but you can ask him on parcaster and we do have one shout out today this is from nate who used warpee for this one n a a t via warpee.e generated some unofficial warplet traits filter sort set alerts adopter and name your favorites check it out warplore so warplore.com still a work in progress would love your feedback so go take a peek at warplore.com especially if you're into the warplits and give nate some feedback on that and if you want a shout out on thursday's show get them in now alright now let's bring up alaskan magpie we do have a few more builder things we'll talk about after our chat with alaskan magpie but here he is bringing him up to the stage welcome sir check out my background by the way
i i've been noticing it it's very nice i was i very much enjoyed building that skin for farcaster it's cool
it's so cute it's so cute i had to alright we are gonna we're gonna be letting you take over and do a little demo but let's start first with what what you've been building and you've been sharing a lot on farcaster and twitter but let's we are gonna do have you do a little demo but first tell us a little bit about you and how you got here like how you started building what you're building right now
absolutely first thanks for having me here you guys have a great show one of the things i'm about to mention is i've done hundreds of them before and it was not something i thought i would be enjoying but now it's like spaces and stuff like this feels like home you know what i mean but if me that failed public speaking in college you'd see me now you know what i mean that's for sure truncated version of who i am and why the noises i make might be worth your time i've been in crypto since 2019 with a wallet doing a bunch of stuff on a casino back in the day came back about a year and a half later when i realized that nfts were becoming a thing like i still specifically have a tweet that i sent to my friend asking for some cash to buy some axies when they were still like $97 or something
like that
axies i
haven't heard anyone mention axies in a long time
i know but i was like listen there's there's stuff happening here like it's a whole thing and then we couldn't afford it and so on and so forth cut to it when it blew up and then it blew down and all that type of stuff anyways that got my attention into the sector because i used to trade stocks and stuff like that but that always closes on the weekend and crypto didn't i haven't traded a single crypto thing since i realized video games could be crypto basically because it just honestly it makes a lot of sense if you do it correctly which over the next couple of years i was lucky enough to work my way from mod up to a partnerships lead support lead like i wore too many hats at one of the bigger spaces in the place i am not there anymore but during my tenure there i had the absolute daily privilege of working with and signing like over 300 different like crypto games everything from star atlas down to the indies and stuff like that and honestly who cares the only reason i mentioned it is that a my whole thing is collab heavy and i haven't even gotten started on that and b i'm an information sponge and i had the opportunity to see a lot of the mistakes that they were making and how to avoid them and stuff like that not that i had a crystal ball back then just like i had the information flooded i was looking it up to see a lot of stuff anyways i did a bunch of stuff like that for a bit and then in february i went solo after i demystified github because it's just reddit for code like it's not as scary
as i thought it was
and moved a lot of my vibe coding projects over that i was working on over the last couple of years before that but pretty much everything that's going into my solo studio is stuff that i have built exclusively since february solo which is really cool and that's the truncated version of who i am i could go a whole lot more but we're not really here for that type
of it's
so boring feel free to dm me that was perfect
that was perfect learn more yeah make sure you're following alaskanmagpie on twitter and farcaster and and learn more so i was looking just even at your opening web page
is freaking cool and it has a lot going on like but i loved the way it was set up okay just to like it looks like a big constellation and of all the different projects that you're doing and i thought that was such a clever approach
thank you
because at first was like where do i even go i'm like oh as i just started like moving my mouse around i'm like oh this is cool so it my
kids have a new my my kids have like a new what like dis against websites like websites they don't like they call them clod sites because they all like the same
yes oh true yeah
i was showing something i was like doing like the i was doing some work for a nonprofit and i was helping them redesign a website and yes i was using claud and yes it was very templated and yes it looked a 100 times better than the former one but i was showing it off and my and my kids my kid my one of my kids and their friends were around they're like that looks like a clawed site like they wouldn't even look at it so also when you take a look at what alaska magpie is building it's anything but a clawed site
oh great i appreciate it because like everything i've built like i i have the vision and have for forever but i haven't had the technical tooling and like i would say if it breaks now i could probably fix it back to where it's at but i couldn't myself create new code without ai you know what i mean like as soon as i can hire an engineer or something to really put the wheels on this thing properly i would be delighted to but i'm not i'm not quite there yet that's interesting i just
we're still in like an mvp stage kinda kinda
split exactly
isn't it amazing the level of mvp we get to now like mhmm mhmm which would have been final product in just a a few years ago so it's kind of like really incredible what we can do now
no absolutely
alright i'd love to give you turn over the turn over the wheel to you and let you do a little demo so you can show us what you've been building
cheers that sounds great let me pop this up here i just found a memory leak in my shinythings.space page so that's fun that's no big
deal okay
it it just every night like thirty
i don't know what that is
it's okay it's no big deal let me pop it up here and let's do window alright there you go
roaster i'm not sure what roaster is i'm not sure what roaster is so i'm not sure we can help you with that sammy but maybe mhmm
awesome should've
i know can i get help can i get help like i don't know i've been seeing that a lot where people are replying to me and i'm like i don't know what that is i can't help
that happens
a lot
for sure
yeah i'm not sure what that is
there we go okay close that close that alright perfect i think my screen is all set there i'm not sure if it's coming through
yeah
hi mfers hi mister mfer and there's a lot of comments about your beard
i appreciate that i wish i could say
lot of yeah we've got a lot of like lot of beard comments where was the one from i'm looking hold on where is it there was a good one oh here it is fear the beard nba fans now fear the beard
there
it is awesome yeah and you were right adrienne there was not a lot of chatter about lebron i did lose my i lost one of my predictions i thought he was gonna go to miami i did not see philly was not on my radar whatsoever not at all alright are we ready
we added to the stage alright here we go cool and you are driving
thank you sounds good so what i figured i'd do today and please ladies shut me up as soon as you need to go do the next thing like i there's no time that's too short seriously what i figured i'd do is show off briefly the two flagships cool and then do like a super lightning round of the other stuff but maybe not the lightning round if the thing is being a little wonky anyways this is fableboy this is a legal cleared distinct difference it will not take any emulators or roms or anything which a quick explainer is if you find the code for pokemon or super mario world or whatever and try to put it in here it will break down and report you to me so that way i am not gonna get sued by nintendo type of stuff it's very nice oh hello interesting something about the streaming is messing with my system which is weird
that can do that sometimes yeah it's just memory yeah
it yeah it's no big deal i'm just preparing myself for the occasional hiccup and that's all good fableboy is a tiny handheld for big fables and what it is is as close as i can get it to be a loving recreation of the the beauty of nostalgic gaming but also as i will show off here shortly it's gonna be a relatively very fun and big project hopefully but dive into the specific bits it is playable on any screen theoretically it should boot right up on your phone no problem none of it has any install this is not a dot exe you don't even have to sign in if you don't want to but what we've got here is a full ready to go system with all of the nice beautiful ah let me unmute this site it'll help too with all the nice beautiful chiptunes i love it fully functional buttons which you can play with your d pad and keyboard or fully edit them as much as you need but more importantly let's just grab hermesworld for instance slot that in the back here and now you have got a full cartridge that you can play around and critically at any point you can also set top scores learn how to play post scores etcetera we'll get into the scores here in a second for some of the stuff that i've got coming up but let's go have some fun real quick just to show off kind of a
oh this is cute thank
you i i specifically for each of the different iterations which i've got nine consoles built out right now i wanted to keep them as hardware accurate as possible so like i could make this look way better but the point is that it feels like it's on this hardware you know what i mean
yes totally you know what i was just i don't i oh i did post it and we talked about it a little bit last week i went to a restaurant slash arcade that's all eighties themed and mhmm the arcade part is all the original like games so you have pong and you've got you know asteroids and pac man and miss pac man and donkey kong and it's like old school it's not mhmm you know you're it's the real deal and it's so fun it was so so fun
yeah tapping into that is definitely a big part of it and i i was not at all intending this like you can absolutely burn your own cartridges with an api that i've got built out that's just not turned on if you're technical minded you could just grab this stuff and start building your now if you want to but i've got a whole thing where you can just three sentences away from building one of these yourself and they all come with a leaderboard so like for community managers or anybody who has basically any project this is a tool ready to go to help you tap into not only my users but bring cool utility to your users and it writes itself essentially besides the hardware itself which i've demonstrated a little bit i have gotten a bunch of skins including collab skins with my buddy over at herms world i've got the farcaster skin which i the farcaster skin i really do like the farcaster skin it's a lot of fun got some basic space invader ones
go back one go back one what was that that was really cute
space invaders cute very cute that's for
eighties coded yeah here we go
it's for star invaders not space invaders watch be careful yeah be careful yeah star invaders cute absolute we've got the see through skins which is probably my personal favorite
it's very nineties very nineties
yeah exactly currently i've got every single one of these cartridges is a full game you can like if you like puff sprite you can set this one as a favorite and it will show up at the top you know basic ui type of things one of the things that i'm really looking forward to doing is tapping into a lot of the people that are vibrating similar stuff and saying hey keep yours wherever it's at why not bring it to fable boy you know what i mean i have for anybody familiar with the old nintendo powered magazines i have put together some nostalgic ones as well that kind of explain the entire project which i'll flip through briefly one worth mentioning here episode three anytime you set a leaderboard it will show up and pass or it will populate itself through here right now i'm the only one that's really set in me because i think i until this weekend had the leaderboards turned off but the point is is any single one of the games that you play instead of scoring will be added to here and i'll get into this not today but check out my socials for exactly how the scoring works and why the scoring will be interesting for a bunch of the stuff coming up
let's dive into the actual arcade real quick just to kinda show off a bit of the depth here so we have the fableboy obviously which is a lot of fun but i have also built out nine other consoles which are in various degrees of like this doesn't actually look like this if i take it to let's see yeah there we go it's a little bit more accurate version of the fableboy advance but this guy's got full color the same type of stuff you'd expect all the d pad works etcetera etcetera it has five titles that are not as built out as the fableboy but this is going to be the same case for all of the different titles so we've got the fableboy advance ready to go we've got fable boy color coming inbound we've got the shelf full of games heck yeah we've got arcades that i'm gonna be putting probably some karaoke in and nods to some people helping out with the build along the way we've got the fableworks oh that's funny system
the mega fable that feels like in television oh my god like wow
the ones i one of the ones i almost built out which i was like we don't need to do this to the modern world but i almost built out the virtual fable with like the first vr just the straight red headset from back before even i was born i think
oh that's funny
it's it's called the the the inspirational system was called the virtual boy and it's a it's the world's first like commercial vr it was you plug it into your nintendo and it would literally just be red and black pixels and it was the games weren't great but they were in the eighties so yeah if i was alive i probably would have played the heck out of it too
that's funny don't don't you
yeah right
yeah yeah
love it this is really fun
it's been a blast honestly building it and then here i've got the three three d consoles up through the the gamecube type of situation and etcetera etcetera these are all like they all have some demo titles and stuff like that but i haven't really built out all of those with the same focus that
i have so is like fable boys the most built out right now
yes this is the not officially but the way to think of it would be this is like season one essentially and then we'll expand into other stuff as we get there but like a note for people that are building games that don't look like they're green and black on the game boy type of a situation like if you have a three d title i bet you would fit on the gamecube board than nintendo 64 type of a situation you know what i mean other things worth mentioning in here that is pretty cool i've got a because this is all a little technical so one of the things i'm working on which i don't think is completely there yet is you can brew a game by just grabbing like a potion and throwing it into a cauldron so like this is a potion that says tennis this is one that says action games and this is one that says fantasy you could throw all those in a cauldron and instead of having to be a prompt wizard and stuff like that you can just have the wizard brew you up a game kind of a situation i've got the founders den coming for early operators and stuff like that all of this to be very clear is fully optional for my studio i'm going to be i have been convinced to launch a token based on somebody who was kind enough to launch fableboy a banker token which i do not endorse i have not endorsed i took the money out of it and i donated that to child's play charity just so that i i have nothing to do with it but when that went to the market cap that it did i was like okay let's get past the impostor syndrome and maybe consider doing this a little bit more seriously i was originally just going to launch a token for fableworks or fableboy but i am instead going to be launching one for the entire studio not here to talk a bunch about that happy to answer any questions about it to be clear but the only
we'll wait for when you're ready when you're ready you let us know and we'll we'll chat about it yeah but you we we have a preference as to where we'd like you to launch it but we're not gonna put pressure on you
i feel that and i appreciate it i genuinely appreciate that the only reason i'm mentioning it now is that my promise to you is that your time is the only thing that matters on this planet and having worked in the industry as long as i have a lot of people just completely whiffed and missed that so if you do spend your time at all with this ecosystem first and foremost you don't need a token it'd be cool if you got it but it's gonna be all built around stablecoins and price pegs so it never turns a game into $75 to make one that type of stuff the only reason to use the token at all is if you're a cool person you can still be a cool person without it but basically it would give you a discount on any of the optional things you choose to engage with in ecosystem every one of the games is always
so in other words he's answering the question what would the token do
okay yeah basically
which we we enjoy we enjoy having that question answered so
absolutely and i appreciate that let's see let's go shiny things real quick before the debriefing
site i was talking about that i i love this whole page yeah
it's cool it's funny you mentioned cloudcoded because i i i'm not i wouldn't say i hate two d sites but like in the world where you're we're one ask away that from this you know what i mean like why not and i you can you can remix it or replay it as much as you want you can remix it a billion times and it'll give you different constellations
it's really cool like i i spent time just like poking around on this because i was like what oh this is neat like like what's happening
and there there is a search bar too in case you're you're ever looking for stuff but i bring you here ada mentioned this is i have actually 65 repos and about 50 of those are probably viable so this isn't even like wow the whole thing and then the other reason i brought you here is just that we can get to waypoint a little bit easier this is the other flagship that i'll be launching with between the two titles fableboy is absolutely more approachable but what waypoint is is an entire it is the world's first sci fi mmo that you can play with your agents herms world beat me to being the world's first ai mmo which is a little annoying but also congrats to eric but this is the world's first sci fi agentic mmo so there is an entire ship ai built into it that yes you can slap autopilot on with any of your agents you want to and if you don't wanna mess with any agents you can just play it through telegram bots if you want to and be like hey send my crew out to go get me loot and they'll be like alright cool it'll be three hours and i'll come back and you get all the loot it is built from the ground up to be an idle game because again time is the only resource we cannot get back and we're all damn busy any game i think that asks you for even an hour of your time daily in order to be successful is dead it's just not gonna work you know what i mean at least not across demographics so it's built to be ignorable it's built to be idle but as with that said it's going to break on me a little bit that's fantastic i'll fix that
so that's really i mean you're just building some really cool things this is this is neat i love the you know i'm i'm obviously like more dialed into like the retro gaming mhmm but what when you're but i love sci fi as well so tell like when you're talking mmo what do you mean by that exactly and can you just like speak to that just really absolutely let me first put that down i'm not a big gamer
no worries at all
when you said sci fi i'm like but i am a big sci fi person so now i'm interested so
mmo is mass multiplayer online so it's
so we're talking like a dota kinda thing or something like that yep
it it's it's for some reason streaming isn't agreeing with me so much which is fine
yeah it does that sometimes welcome to our world right
no i was gonna i was just about to say i was like i don't wanna be the guy that's preaching to the choir you guys deal with us all the time it's fine the stuff is there people can look at it if they want to i would be a bad founder if i couldn't tell you about it without having it on the screen you know what i mean
yeah
see so waypoint the reason i bring it up is that a it's there all the systems are free and claimable they come with a whole bunch of stuff built into it one of the things i was hoping to show off is that you can or you can i have built out what i call point of interest systems where the sun can look like whatever you need it to be up to a capybara or whatever but like you can go to those systems and learn about external projects like this is built heavily in three js which is why it's not there's no install on waypoint either so i built them out for their thirteenth anniversary i built them out like a a system for that and the plan is both with my personal rolodex that i've built over the last couple years but also with connections i make through you guys and just other collabs is to build out what i'm calling a solar system as a service which is a bit cheeky because it is ssaas but whatever
and in that with the between the two tools of fableboy and waypoint what i have is a way to build a collab that should resonate with just about everybody that i come across that does not default to them having to work with me or even be remotely interested but what i wanted to build is tool sets that i can believe like super deep in and they just enjoy building around and be able to bring for free value to whoever i'm working with one of those things which i'm not going to pull up right now but i'm happy to later today post the first bit i think for either during the launch or immediately after one of the early campaigns i'll be running is something called card hunt where you will be able to play both fableboy and through waypoint and find just while you're shooting down ships or exploring or trading or whatever whatever the life takes you at waypoint you will occasionally find these cool loot caches that you can open for free and sometimes in those loot caches you will find partner pricing or some bits for tokens or just loot for in game and very occasionally you will find these golden cartridges that you will be able to redeem on fableboy and you'll plug it into your thing and it'll make the fun sounds and then when it opens it will say you got this x prize and that'll probably be coupons for my token coming up or if i can get some really cool partnerships it'll be thanks to show off their bits etcetera but the idea is i i would feel bad and i wouldn't be able to sleep at night if i spent four years at the forefront of community management not to do that as the default in the stuff that i'm doing over here and i hope to show that off with the cart hunt and some of the other stuff i have because i'm open for collabs and ready to do a bunch but like i'm just gonna put i hate road maps i just wanna build all this stuff first and then if you choose to engage with it it's there because i have defended road maps that haven't come to the point of so many gray hairs which we've all seen in this space
yeah yes let me tell you like i have a lot of appreciation for you as a community manager because i've been in that role and it is for those who have not been on that side of it one of the hardest things the emotional labor is something you have no idea like the level of pain that you have to deal with and keep a smile so it's dealing with a lot of stuff and i love that i love that you're thinking about you know different collabs with communities mhmm and so if somebody's interested in working with you either to build out some prizes for the treasure hunt or something else skins etcetera how do they reach out and by the way need some good collabs the skins would go hard yeah love the i love the skins you've already built they're awesome
shout out to the skins comment to answer that as well that is one of the first ones i'll be doing like i'm gonna be building a bunch of people free skins because i have a whole skin studio that i was gonna show up but it's all it's a it my system's like yeah i need to upgrade my ram
collapse and the deployment you stream too though it's it's a whole other thing and believe me i've been yeah we've been dealing with that since day one
honestly i'm whole thing about it because i had the i've got the logs running so i can be like i now i can optimize for what i've got streaming going to i'll do that later though it's just the nerdy stuff the easiest way to
reach me captain look at my background the the the skin's already there no the barcaster skin is there but we do need a bird skin we need a bird skin
oh that's a great idea that's a great that would be a great collab with sayangel he would work with you on that i'm sure
i mean
sayangel and and odd job probably between the two of them could put that together
yeah like things yeah
oh yeah yeah yeah and yeah would be cool
that would be fun
it's it not only is it something i could do but like as an extra chef which well i'll do when i get time i'm i'm being inspired now because we have those empty the hollow shell ones like there's nothing legally stopping me from just making the empty shell inside be rattling with a bunch of like little gotcha balls and stuff that have the warpies inside of it or whatever that would be ridiculous looking but also interesting
we like ridiculous looking and interesting we're in
web whole thing
that's my whole thing like isn't that why we're here ridiculous looking and interesting
exactly to answer the collab question easiest way to get ahold of me is dm me here or on x or if you are an email type of person you can just reach me at magpie@shinythings.space or you could put anything in front of at shiny things dot space and it'll find me but yeah also expect probably a lot of people to be getting dms from me this week because this week is the the week i've got for the most part the foundation built out to the point where it is where i want it to be without getting too feature creepy so it's the point where i'm gonna start being like well let's build out 50 skins for people just so that they're there and i can prove concept stuff or let's build out a system here or a carrier oops you know i'm looking
we love a karaoke we know you know we love a karaoke yeah kendra just said i like making games when i can i think it'd be cool to link in if kender seven asks you a question that'll be me
that sounds great that
sounds great
i am very
much fortunate and not to say not to say i told you so but i did tell you so refavable yes the barcaster intern is the one who got us connected and was like you need to talk to this alaskan magpie dude so we're we're glad that that they got us connected so very cool
same very much same
yeah and and also yeah and i know you're talking with that team as well and mhmm with the clanker team etcetera awesome this has been so fun i'm really excited when is like everything officially launching and open for people like to go and play the games and and all of that
anything is right now anything is super playable and i in fact that's a a great segue which i will keep briefly briefly short yeah i touched on the scoreboards in the magazine on fableboy earlier i'm not at the point where those are going to mean anything immediately but those scores aren't going to go away so if anybody has time and they care to start playing first off everything on shinythings.space is good to go right now like you can play or you could play waypoint now you could play fableboy all day long if you want it's free anybody that sets scores if they choose to which you just play the game and it'll either prompt you or you can press start at any time instead of score any scores i see in there will be entered into a raffle or critically probably even better for the audience here if you find a bug and dm me that bug i will also enter you into a raffle so that i can start polishing this stuff off and that raffle will be for the exact same pricing that i will be launching season one with which should be another couple of weeks but until i have that exact pricing all tailed down like i don't wanna promise you pricing now that might be worse than what i end up with basically yeah that's basically the gist of it so if you have time go play a beep boop and if it breaks just send me a thing and either way we will get you taken care of
i love that and we do you know we do have a lot of early adopters who watch the show who are on farcaster and they love to find bugs they love to go bug hunting so go bug hunting people we know you love it love love they like providing feedback too so yep perfect
match made in heaven yeah match made in heaven
adrienne anything else that you wanted to ask before we wrap up this has been awesome
no it's awesome i'm so excited to
i gotta jump in and play
you like magpie i was like i'm not like when inter intern did show us what you're building early on i was like oh i gotta get this i gotta get it check this out and i said like i'm not totally a gamer i'm like i don't even know exactly what i was looking at i could just it looked really freaking cool so i'm very excited appreciate it to give you a chance to show it off i'm excited to to play i just i think the whole experience looks so unique i love all of it like the graphics the collabs like it's very very thoughtful and i think you downplay yourself when you say you you're not an engineer you're not vibe you know you just vibe coded this little thing
yeah yeah i appreciate that i i won't get into the impostor syndrome but i will say i walked around for a while with all this in my back pocket just assuming it was the standard i'm glad to know it's not but also there's a lot of cool people building very cool stuff as well so that's those kind words i will take them to the bank
awesome well thank you so much for joining us today and and walking us through that because that was a lot of fun and we're looking forward to more and we'll absolutely i'm sure we'll be we'll be reaching out to drag you back on here sometime soon
be delighted and thank
yeah and just thank you for sharing on farcast or hanging out because we like oh yeah people who just build interesting things and build in public yeah somewhat newish but we we appreciate it so absolutely for hanging out
it's worth mentioning wherever the world takes me i'm still gonna be on farcast you guys have been like just we love that it would be ridiculous not to be it's it's been super fun here
we love that we love that a shout out to all the builders come build on farcaster we love builders who build in public and we love to support them so alright thanks so much we're gonna let you go and great we'll see you we'll see you on the timeline alright bye that was awesome by the way in the in the chat hey intern intern's in the chat and then kaye and then hey intern and then everybody
everybody say hi to the intern everybody say hi to the intern also like so many great so many cool comments in here about what they you know just everybody's saying how much they like what he's doing so very cool awesome alright we're going to jump back in i gotta bring up my builder links we got a few more things to talk about i didn't wanna do it while he was on like pull them up so let me get get these ready and we'll talk more about all the things that other builders are building we've got lots so one second while i get these ready but that was super fun and i really enjoyed chatting with him it's really cool what he's building like i i i'm as soon as i went to the first page was like mhmm this is different this is really neat like i like what he's doing here like you said definitely not your typical website for sure alright come on everything load for me please okay here we go and then i need this over here
okay here we go it's starting to load
this is what we mean by these streaming issues give us
right
one second alright let me get back in here come on there we go alright we're jiving back in we got some builders building things oops helps if i add this to the stage we have another viniapp so we're back this is from viniapp we're back with another contest viniapp and vini polish i'm assuming polish it could be polish i don't know is it only open to people in poland i'm assuming it's polish
could be either way you never know we've we've got some poll we got some builders in poland i don't know where they're located you know could be live july twenty seventh to thirtieth so that is today starting today 500 usdc prize pool from clanker ecosystem fund yay two tracks viniapp ship a new mini app pay $5 get $50 in credits winner 250 usdc vinipolish polish an existing app 10 spots pay 5 get 50 in u in credits winner two fifty usdc how to enter dm us or reply with your track and app url so go build it and then you can reply in this thread or you can dm the mini app team so lots of different ways to do it i already see some in here that look really fun go check them out and if you like you know if you see one you like shout it out as well so that the team knows what you like what you're playing and all the things so go check out what people are building i may have to polish something i built before i probably need to just start over i probably can do better i still have a couple things that i've never launched that have been in my head for a while so maybe we'll do that this week
yeah i'm kinda like might be time for something new
viniapp does does does a really good job of satisfying my like have an idea wanna see it made because they do make it super easy
yeah they really do so really fun if you haven't built something with viniapp before this is a great week to do it and we look forward to seeing who wins
okay meanwhile fwa fake world assets has launched this launched early july but it's there's a reason we're showing it now so this is fake world assets is live now from tokenworks deposit your own nfts with eth backed so this is on main net or purchase one from the protocol the price to acquire will increase or decrease depending on the assets in the pool fwa.fun and you can find it here and you'll see bunch of different nfts that are in there right now these are all eth main net nfts they've been adding different projects over time over the past month and then this is gonna all tie to a new token that is gonna be coming out which token is that oh 10,000 tokens that's gonna be coming out sometime soon that you can only right now earn from either depositing or purchasing on the site so that's what people are kinda getting excited about and then this was whoops nope sorry that's something else completely wrong thing unlike most tokens you cannot buy the fwa token for the first two weeks of the protocol so that's now tokens are given to those who participate by purchasing or depositing nfts sell at any time after two weeks of fair distribution external buys are enabled so that's what's going on over there lot of activity and people getting excited about it which led to sayangel i wanted to mess around with fwa a bit more and what better way than to build a mini app for it so this is f w r caster let's rip fwa packs right from the feed you can't market by fwa so if you want to expose your warplet to the best bet is to play the game let's help rip not ripnautic save ethereum so if you wanna go in here and check this out it has a feed it has like what's going on you can open a pack i think everything's on main net so just be make sure you have that eth in your warplet if that's the wallet you're gonna be using you can also see who's pulling and who's depositing you can see your own profile i haven't done anything yet so nothing there but very cool so cool to see what sayangel is building on top of so that's that and that's all i know about that right now that is it that is all things i needed to explain today that i did
that's forcaster is very different
ordacaster yeah i i don't know if i got it right forcaster forcaster something like that anyway there you go also this was kinda cool introducing inco x megapot summer game jam workshops from from base inco megapot imaginae sadar kade fun kamagachi world and more than a two week hackathon with prizes for the best games what will you build so if you are a game builder there's lots lots of stuff going on out there including what we were just talking about with alaskan magpie but here's an opportunity to do some building if you are interested just dig in more to the inco network or megapot to learn more so this is happening starting this week looks like there's gonna be workshops first and then a hackathon so go check this out and our friends from megapots are involved so very cool this from jenil big update tokens tokens fund now uses clanker for token launches create a token for your autonomous agent on base soon robinhood chain powered by mini dollar sign mini so cool more token launch i shoulda had that with the token launchers launchers the launching of launchers i shoulda put that together with that
ahead no no you're not muted never mind i thought you were
go ahead because we've yeah because in the earlier conversation we didn't really bring the agents in yes and it's the agent it's the token launchers for the agents who are launching token launchers to launch tokens for the other
to for the agents to buy the tokens of the agents yes exactly everyone got that ridiculous
it's so ridiculous it's the buffalo who buffaloed and buffaloed and buffaloed more
and you know what several agents have been querying warpie in the last day don't know who they are don't know if they're
they're probably trying to figure out from them they're probably trying to figure out what exactly we've been talking about because we're talking
about hear what the wanna hear what the most common question is yes what is the cef and oh how do you how does they may how do you make decisions and how do i apply and things like that
interesting that makes sense mhmm that makes sense interesting very interesting and the answer to that is go ask warpie just kidding we are actually warpie will answer we actually should answer that question we are doing our next round it will we are planning to announce it thursday we are not finalized everything yet but we've been gathering information we have meetings behind the scenes and we've been pulling together our list we we start we have an ongoing list at all times and with after each round anyone we didn't give a grant to we kinda just continue to move that along so we have that list going and we'll be announcing we're planning to announce on thursday should as you know god willing let's put it that way but so thursday we should be announcing and we'll have our latest round of the clanker ecosystem fund grants so there you go little information for the agents who might be listening this from divifly you can now attach an existing empire to your channel through hubs so we talked about this last week this was in response to introducing channel hubs the all in one community snap to pin to the top of your channel view your channel engagement leaderboards deploy an audited channel reward treasury and create info panels to guide newcomers all powered by empire builder so this is really cool and now you can attach an existing empire to your channel through hubs so if you already had an empire you don't wanna launch a new one for your channel but you just wanna connect the two there you go so very cool love what these guys have been building and we chatted with them on thursday no wednesday last week and so if you wanna learn more about what's going on with empire builder go check it out on last episode this from more hackathons this from winter announcing basepaint hackathon celebrate three years of basepaint by vibe coding fun apps on top of our amazing artwork two worth of prizes special swag no programming skills required just bring your ideas this one starts august 1 and registration is open so go check those out very cool i love this i love base paint i think it's just been one of the most creative things that have been happening in the space for a long time so almost three years that was one of the earlier projects on on base actually mhmm very cool this from six this is more like thinky thinky stuff replying to w our friend will so will had said something something markets are already super intelligent and alignment is the study of the political economy and six replied this makes a lot of sense the market is a super intelligent organism smith's invisible hand metaphor hints at this before the concept of super intelligence was even fathomable the invisible hand of what a misaligned market produces negative externalities and an aligned market produces positive externalities political economy is the practice of aligning the market to minimize the former and promote the latter the market itself does not care about what humans want or desire so humans must coordinate to try and align the market to what they desire interesting the unregulated crypto economy is interesting because by design it is explicitly unaligned in any direction not aligned or misaligned but unaligned raw and permissionless ceding full power to the super intelligent organism i suspect this is why the passive we is flawed when thinking about crypto what happens on for example pump is not the result of our actions or the industry but rather the actions of a super intelligence okay just thought it was an interesting thought
i think we have misaligned markets very much so in the terms of the stock market considering that there's basically seven stocks that have been holding it up for quite some time so clearly there's something going on there and actually i've been looking at what michael berry berry has been talking about in regards to that and the way he's moving he's the guy who from the big short if you you know to make this easy if you he was the guy who recognized that the housing market had issues long before anyone else did and started shorting so he's again looking at where we are right now especially around ai so interesting just some thoughts there not much else to say about that but just something to give you give you something to think about this week this from gt this is my last week at tempo in a way it closes out my farcaster chapter looking back mint with warps was the feature that stands out the most so i wanted to write about it before i move on i thought that was really funny that that's the feature that stood out and i haven't had a chance to read this did you read this article
not in detail but it's a kind of a technical article it talks about all the things all the different components
okay
that need to be built and working really well before you can do something so simple as mint with warp like it was and so i i it was i didn't i didn't read in detail i just quickly scanned to see what it was about but it's i thought it was nice like yeah because you don't think about mint with warped about everything that has to go into it
right yeah and i hadn't thought about that so it's really interesting and also like i'd love to know i didn't realize he was leaving tempo i i haven't followed what's going on with tempo much lately so i'm just curious where he's where he's off to and what he's doing and also don't make it the end of your farcaster chapter you can keep building here and and talking here gt we love you so don't make it the end just make it a change it's just a shit
that yeah that part you can stop now yeah we already talked about this but if you missed it go check out if you want to have oddjob make you a three d version of your warplet there we go here they are they're kinda fun and
then this for no reason whatsoever
g n that was from brixbounty putting together a couple different different things the jimothy of it all the jimothy with the geometry and then lining up in the timeline was your comment geometry is math you can see sound is math you can hear by the way link said no music is math you can hear kind of agree got what he's saying but i just loved how this lined up on the on the timeline with the with the jimothy of it all so
and then this finally odyssey that odyssey this odyssey that you odyssey a therapist true true story or but what you odyssey what you ought to see if you didn't see was our chat with t l d r last week about the odyssey and it was so good and i've still been thinking about it and i still haven't gone to see the odyssey yet but i am gonna go this week so that might happen tomorrow again god willing yeah got a lot
going on so i'm hoping who is the chair to go tomorrow
wilson no emily's i something yes emily yeah wilson i think
it was
i'm a positive the one that he didn't like yeah yeah and latimore was the one he liked yeah
yes i had a conversation at dinner that night and i guess that the the emily what's her i know i
just it wilson yeah is it wilson i think
wilson i guess one of my kids read read some of her translation in school so she was familiar with it so i got it
interesting i got
in front of me i i don't remember what translation i read because it was ninth grade which was it was a
likely very very likely and thank you for that i don't know what i read i have no idea i don't think there was like you know many choices
i definitely did not read it in the original greek yeah it was wilson i was just looking for the snap that was out here hold on yeah this was the snap the vote this still cracks me up by the way what cracked me up the most was that how many people actually voted on this on farcaster it was just mind blowing to me this was the which odyssey translation should i read and then the most people did say emily wilson but yeah tldr disagreed tremendously he voted for latimore he said that is the closest to
wonder person wonder if person's easier to read i'm still on the like i watch the movie
stop reading the movie first read a book stop reading movie first before you even pretend like you're gonna go back and read the odyssey
i think so i mean i do feel like this is something most people in the us do read in school
i mean because my son has read it grade
i'm sure
i read bolt he run the iliad he read this
as an adult i didn't i didn't even i haven't tried to read it since back then so i don't know but i'm really i'm curious now i'm like i don't know what translation i read i have no idea like i don't think there were choices then like guys we're talking about '19 we're look like seriously talking about 1983 1984 somewhere in that ballpark like yeah when when i was still listening to you know cassettes there were still eight track tapes playing in my household that's what i'm you know so i don't know anyway alright
just making sure we didn't
you realize
world has changed italy by the way you know what i'm saying us but honestly it's probably probably everybody's probably read this in school anywhere you were in school because it is 2,700 years old
so like
this is something that is pretty universal honestly sorry what were you gonna say i just saw that one
i just
i just been thinking about like just how much the world has changed over the last thirty years yeah it's insane thirty forty years
if if you go through like i don't i listen we're old period i am she's younger but we've been through all of the technology like literally all of it it's insane if you if you actually think about it like from analog to digital and us going through every version of that and it's easy to see it when you think about music because it's really like everything you know from vinyl straight through and then back to vinyl which is hilarious to me but also if if you just think about personal computers like you know i didn't have a personal computer in my house until i was in my late teens and that was a commodore 64 thank you yeah it's i didn't
no i i had a i had a word processor and then i started using the computer lab on campus for a little bit i didn't really use a computer i used a laptop in law school it's when i first had my own laptop but we were taught we were taught with books legal research with books first before we were even allowed to use westlaw and lexisnexis which did exist at that point but we weren't even allowed to use it until we
could
use until and and when i'd say so think about this now you're just asking chatgpt for case law which it gets wrong a lot of the time so you do need to still know those early skills because you can get it wrong but you would go to a case and then there would be footnotes and then you go to the next case and the next case and it was it was crazy and you had to go around a library and find the books it was insane
polish polish
yes yes like yes polish not polish
oh i guess he could've capitalized it i guess it would've maybe if he meant polish it would've been capitalized
oh dos was my cli when i was six wow okay
yeah yeah
dos and and dot matrix printers was my first printer crazy like it's really kinda crazy if you think about it and that was what i think is really fun about alaskan magpie like and the fable boy and and the and the arcade and all of that is there is such a comeback of that like nostalgia that era of like eighties nineties right now is making a big i think people just like that vibe at the moment so it's really fun to see him building at this you know using ai to build this old school stuff is like really fun it's really really fun
oh interesting okay hold on polish polish is the only english word that changes how it's pronounced based only on the capitalization okay nerd fact thank you
now i'm like oh you did
it really follow merriam webster on twitter that was your recommendation and i so all their tweets have been showing up for me and they also like to play a lot of interesting word
they are so fun if you if you don't follow the dictionary on twitter i recommend you do merriam webster it's because they're really funny like whoever runs that account is very witty and they even will jump into people's replies and say things and it's it's amusing i find them very amusing alright everybody we've been on here for a while anything else adrienne before we before we call it
