Just booked my ticket for #Longcon in #Sheffield (27-28 June).
https://longcon.ttrpg.uk/It will be my first time at this con. I was hooked in by the idea of running a single long game over the weekend.

A whole weekend lost in a fantasy world? Free tea and coffee? A nice long sit down? Longcon is either a TTRPG convention or a retirement home but honestly, you had us at 'a long sit down'. One question remains: Biscuits? #Sheffield Garrison Hotel, June 27-28. #Longcon #TTRPG #RPG https://l.d20.ninja/ttBPCL

🎩✨ Ah yes, the long con of #LLMs, a mere extension of Pascal's #cunning plan to trick us all with mechanical marvels since 1623. Who needs progress when we can just blame the badgers? 🦡🔮

🎩 Oh wow, a "long con" by Apple, who would've thought? 😂 This self-hosting hero ditches iCloud but still clutches Apple Music like a lifebuoy made of dollar bills, ensuring #musicians get their 0.000001% cut. 🌊📉 What a revolutionary!

I just stumbled across #LongCon (https://longcon.ttrpg.uk/), a #TTRPG #con dedicated to long-form games. Instead of a three or four-hour slot, #GMs can run a mini #campaign over the weekend.
Is anyone going to this or has been in the past? I'd love to hear your experiences. Too late for this year but I would be tempted for next year...

Maybe Ea-nāṣir really is an undying shady businessman who has perpetuated copper-based scams over the past four millennia

The elephant in the room for most use of LLMs is simply that the real changing force here is not in the absolute capabilities of the technology but in the price: these trade offs all make sense when using vast amounts of cloud resource is almost free. People say it'll get cheaper, yet everything points to orders of magnitude rises in investment to deliver decreasing margins of improvement. Someday they're going to want the profit, and we'll all pay very dearly. #AI #LongCon

The TV series Hustle taught me so much, and what the Trump family and their droogs are currently doing, is not much different. -

@LeaBug @GottaLaff With the benefit of hindsight, it appears that the #TrumpOrganization was the most successful #LongCon in history.
From a racist, two-bit slumlord, to the #POTUS, courtesy of the corporate media that enabled him every step of the way, from “John Barron” quotes, to #CelebrityApprentice to #MorningJoe and the #NYT #ButterEmails.
