It sounds like some of those ciphers have big overlap, like the reduction ciphers. Do you factor that in when you’re using them? I think another commenter mentioned that using multiple reduction and exception ciphers that exclude letters not used in the phrase you’re analysing will obviously give you the same results, which seems like a good point to me
Oh it’s definitely Brummie, mm mm mmmmm
Thanks for those cyphers! Is it common to use a bunch of different ones in numerology? :o
But where’s “hex” coming from? I’m sure other words equal 44 too. Does “hex” equal 44 in the cyphers you use?
When you say that Call of Duty was chosen, what do you mean? He was a developer for that series, and it’s his most popular work so it’s where most people would know him from.
Wait, what’s the “under a hex (44)” from? He was 55.
Also I get 79 for “murder”, where did you get 38? And for “Call of Duty”? I don’t know shit about Numerology honestly lol
To me, “the music a subcontractor listens to while they work” is different to “the thing they’re working on”.
The GenAI asset was in the final release. It wasn’t that a subcontractor used GenAI to create a music playlist to listen to while they worked. That’s a very different thing.
This is by far the most consistent I’ve been with strenuous exercise ever. I’ve tried before, but it never clicked for me; I always felt embarrassed, awkward, gangly, unfit, and just awful. I always walked a lot, so that kept me somewhat in shape, but I was deffo weak and my cardio was dogshit.
What changed for me was buying a small, cheap, simple set of dumbbells, and trying to do a routine I found on YouTube. I failed about halfway through, and the comments were full of people being like “I’m a 70 year old woman and these workouts keep me nice and spry” and I just thought, like… I’m a 28 year old man what the fuck am I doing if I can’t physically outwork a 70 year old woman (not to be sexist about it but just physically yknow). So I kept pushing until I could do that routine, and completing it felt really positive. So I kept going for that feeling, and eventually learnt to enjoy even how it feels to exercise, regardless of completing. I’m up to a five-minute plank now, aiming for fifteen one day, and working on other goals too.
You’ve got to find your own way into it. Or, just brute force it if you can do that. I am reticent to say just don’t do it, because we know what happens to people who never exercise.
I went through a rough breakup between June and August last year. At first, I drank and slept around. Then, I got sober. I’m sort of over it by now, genuinely, but the spark is gone. I don’t really want to see people, despite how badly I want to see people. I don’t know what to say. I feel sort of nonplussed about everything.
I work my ass off all day, come home, work out, eat right, work my ass off all evening, then when I’m done I play bass or guitar, paint miniatures, take photos, do little bits of graphic design practice, and fall into bed around midnight.
I’m lonely. I think I’m starting to accept that this is just how it’s gonna be for me, at least for now.
All that to say; it may be helpful to practice some genuine acceptance. When I’m feeling real beat up about being sad and lonely, I get my shoes on and go for a walk. No destination in mind, no matter the time of day. I put my earphones in, put on some sad music, and walk until I get sick of myself moping and just accept that yes, this is how it is. Then I’ll put on a podcast I enjoy, or something I can learn from, or I’ll just take the earphones out and enjoy nature as I walk back towards home.
Focus on yourself. Being lonely isn’t rare these days, but being completely alone gives you complete freedom. I’m fairly new to working out, but I’ve stuck to a relatively consistent schedule for four months or so and my body looks and feels so much better. I’m working on my pull-up and dead hang form at the moment, and I’m finding it really tough but really rewarding. I’m on week 2 of 100 push-ups per day, and seeing my body go from barely being able to do 15 in a set, to almost doing 30 in a set, has been really fun! You don’t get the opportunity to be selfish with your time without guilt very often in life, and if you’re gonna be alone anyway you may as well make the most of it.
Those are proactive things that take effort, but for an easier suggestion: avoid YouTube. Avoid Netflix. Avoid TV or streaming. Don’t sit there and wallow. If you’re gonna wallow, get up and move while you’re wallowing. No point letting your body and mind feel shitty at the same time. I sold my TV and my PS5. I sold my sofa. My lounge is now a desk, my hobby stuff, and a radio. I feel productive. I feel great. I feel so fucking earth-shatteringly bored that I have to do something, rather than just sitting on my ass watching shit I don’t even care about.
I wish you the best my friend ✌️
Oh! Also! Get a bit weird with it. I grew my hair out for seven years, but I trimmed it earlier this year, then shaved it all off after getting sober. Just recently, I shaved it into a mohawk, and a couple of weeks ago I shaved designs into the sides of my head. Whether it looks good or not isn’t the point; the point is about reclaiming your self expression, and enjoying your selfish experience. Be self centered. Be protective of your time. Be expressive. Do what you want. Say what you want. Spend how you want. Sell your sofa. Paint your walls. Do something you’ve always wanted to do but haven’t because you’ve felt self-conscious. If you’re feeling invisible at the moment, make the most of it. I started baking recently, too. Totally blew my calorie budget for the day but I ate a whole loaf of chocolate chip banana bread and honestly it was worth it.
But I was never making an “AI replacing humans” argument, we covered that already. I am against any use of GenAI.
But they’re using GenAI in the ideation stage of concepting, which is something I have a problem with, and you don’t (which is fine, by the way). I feel like we’ve come back to the beginning of this argument, lol
I think what they’ve said is that they’ll be using it in the ideation stage, which is part of the process of creating concept art. They’ve also said they often use it to “develop concept art”, which could well just be a slip of the tongue by management rather than a clear statement by somebody involved in the process.
I think maybe you’re having a different argument than me? I didn’t say they were replacing anyone or anything with AI.
What I have expressed an issue with is exactly what you described:
they’re using it to help with the foundational stage of some processes, which is how it’s supposed to be used. Throw shit at the wall and see what sticks, then work off of that.
And you dismissively and incorrectly compared that to driving to the gym.
I think maybe try a different LLM to come up with your arguments, maybe Claude? Because the one you’ve got thinking for you right now doesn’t seem to be working lad.
Yeah it’s exactly like that mate lol, did you get ChatGPT to come up with that poor, poor analogy or are you just thick?
The concepting stage is a really crucial and foundational stage in terms of design, but it can also influence writing, gameplay, etc. as an artist explores the thing they’re concepting.
I don’t like genAI, and think that using it at such an important stage will invariably mean it ends up influencing the game. I want to play games or experience media made with intention by people, not bland products shat out by a chatbot.

Well, whatever floats your boat; but I think it’s probably not worth your time dude. I’m sorry that somebody made you feel bad for doing something good, have a good eve ✌️
It seems like you’ve really got twisted up over somebody making you feel bad. I’d let it go, if I were you. You’ll only wind yourself up more.
Interesting. Thanks for explaining a bit more! Have you always done numerology?
