@davidrevoy Here I disagree. I tested different LLMs with English, Russian and Ukrainian languages, and they seem to be much better at translation than at finding the answers. And in conditions when you have to communicate with somebody who speaks a rare language which is not available in Google, DeepL and other translators, LLM can be the only savior of situation (if the person-translator is not available too).P.S. Which language is spoken by people in Hereva? Is it English, French, something else, or some in-universe language which does not occur in real world?

@davidrevoy I would like first to get full list of which events each number on the dice causes, and only then think about rolling it. Otherwise risk is way too big.

@davidrevoy — Maybe, put all this stuff somewhere? Isn't it hard to carry?— No! What if somebody will steal it?— I know one good place, nobody will find it here ever.*Fairy leads Adventurer to a cave far away. Adventurer just drops everything in and happily goes away**Some time later Adventurer accepts quest*— I'm still looking for that ancient chair which was standing in a hut, where emperor lived when he was in exile...— Hmm... I may have it!*Adventurer goes to the cave and finds all the items gone*— NO! Thieves stole everything! But you said they wouldn't ever find this cave!— ... what if items just disappeared?— What? How?*Some time later, Adventurer runs somewhere and drops a rolling pin he was carrying*— You dropped the rolling pin!— We don't need it now, I will pick it later!*After some time Adventurer returns, he walks to that rolling pin and it just disappears on his eyes*— Woah! What was that? Where did it go?— Maybe, it was laying in grass for too long.— ... now I understand where all things in cave did go.As you may have understood, this is about dropped items disappearing after some time in games.

@davidrevoy There was easier way — pretend that this squid dropped gold.Or, somehow force squid to eat the coins, then just punch and look how it succumbs from all the gold in stomach.There are many ways actually...

@davidrevoy With these prices, it is simpler to rob this greedy merchant.

@davidrevoy That may look fun, but actually problems of Url and Pixie only begin there (°_°)Did they turned into fishes and left all their clothes on ground?How they will acces the cave if it is behind the waterfall but not under water?What if they will turn into human and pixie in the cave with all things left on coast?Will they even be able to pass under the waterfall or be unable to swim against its strong current?What if they will meet fish predators?What will Url and Pixie do...

@davidrevoy Baba Yaga's cabin-on-chicken-legs was the f i r s t thing I thought about after seeing this.I am curious what is with bureaucracy in their country. Would they register it as a house or as a transport vehicle? Do they need to change address each time when the house moves?

@davidrevoy @Grunilg But baby-house can easily hide inside the mum-house, like kangaroo. And by the time it would not be able to hide it will be big enough to protect itself.Also, which milk the use to feed the baby-house? Or is that liquid cement?

@davidrevoy If Url officialy signed documents when buying the house, he has the juridical right to demand the goblins to move out and take the house back. But does he have m o r a l right to do so, after abandoning the house with its baby?

@davidrevoy — Wait, you want me to just stand that way over you?— The sun is very hot today, and you create a very nice shadow over here...— Hmm... I got an idea... I got an IDEA!*Shadowrex summons dark clouds and blocks the sun over entire city*— Look, I protected you from the hot sun, will you accept my rule?*A farmer comes by*— Aha, it is you who blocked the sun!— Yes, it is me!— Return the sun, or my crops will not grow without it!— People are so diverse...

@davidrevoy Interesting, how would a compass react near the portal?

@davidrevoy Now Pepper needs to remember that she has to do everything in evening when it gets colder.

@davidrevoy Imagine: some time later Pepper meets a group of elves who are investigating the city fire.Elves are happy that there is somebody who listens to them and tell, that they knew how and why would the fire happen years before. When Pepper asks about what is going to happen in future, elves tell, that in 50 years all the planet will be a desert, in 100 years it will be on fire, and in 300 years it will look like Venus.Then Pepper asks, how to prevent all of that, and elves tell, that usage of fire should be prohibited, as well as wood, paper (as fuel for fire) and glass lenses (to prevent them from focusing sunlight and causing fire), and 2 out of 3 moons should be moved and fixed in one point to block the Sun.Then Pepper asks: "Is the future going to be so harsh and are there easier way to prevent that?" — and elves tell, that those were their worst predictions, most likely the planet would become warmer but not to the point of worldwide desert, and to prevent that it is enough to replace all fire lamps with magical cold sources of light.But they also say that nobody is going to listen to them if they will tell the most likely instead of worst possible predictions and measures.This is a parody on climate change activists, who tell that Earth is going to turn into hell due to global warming instead of most likely projections, and thus involuntarily discredit the movement to stop climate change.

@davidrevoy When so to think, Cepper can just stay silent and not say anything to that Avian Intelligence. Because LLMs never speak on their own and always need an answer from user to say something.

@stux No, humans, it does not look that way. It would have been much better if you showed real photo instead. Original photo for wallpaper was made in January 1996, this one in February 2026, it always stays green in winter.https://www.reddit.com/r/windows/comments/1r8iper/windows_xp_bliss_hill_looking_almost_identical_to/

@davidrevoy — Wait, Cepper, are there...— Fingers? Yes, I have got additional fingers on my hands.— How?— Avian Intelligence told me wrong spell again.
