   @shizamura if you want to hang out live for Wednesday's lispy gopher climate (000UTC Wednesday), I came up with some topics I perceive you to have worked extensively on in your https://sarilho.net/en/ we could wander around together. We normally hang out in Paradise Sushi in https://lambda.moo.mud.org/ , but we could have a jitsi-call on top of that.
   Recently, I added my new MUD, Object Oriented DSL to my lisp images (ie multiplayer text based game world building elements).
   In your comic: 1/2

     @shizamura
     you have a wide variety of what I see as different player derived classes (ontologically). Zombies, alien-possessed, alien-inhabited-zombie, magic users, technologists, politicians, soldiers, civilians.
     Now in my lisp image, I wanted to "run game scripts" basically. So I made a new player class, which could run "in-game" scripts, worked great.
     But I was jealous of how productive they were, so I pushed them to my own parents-list. Now I too can run scripts.
     But there are onto

     @shizamura logical problems. Sometimes I treat the player class (called repeatedly-eval-qt) as though it's a different person, but then I also made them into one of my own parents, so I'm a derivative of them. In MOO terms, I guess they are what is called a puppet class (like Emily, from last week).

     But it also seems like repeatedly-eval-qt is a "kind of player" rather than a particular player, but they sometimes operate as a particular player. I'm trying to sort these ideas out. 3/2

     @dougmerritt Fun story about Newt. Kind of presaging Basshunter's Boten Anna song.

     I dunno if you ran into Minix yet in Lambda, but they pointed me to https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10458-006-0005-z (Cobot, the self-programming community robot) as well. When you see people who have installed the boogie feature in their player class, they probably got it from Minix.

     @shizamura has many characters who have or have installed new or otherwise different features that change what they are socially and cognitively.

     @screwtape @shizamura
     On the social mud I used to "live" on, DragonMud (there was also an unrelated RPG game DragonMud), "wizards" had limited admin privileges and "gods" had unlimited admin privileges. (I was a wizard)

     This allowed the mud owner to recruit lots of help -- a small number of gods and maybe a dozen wizards.

     As an aside, there was an Eliza-style bot, "Newt", mostly for the fun of the owner having a bot wandering around, but also it responded to HELP commands.

     There's a certain kind of person that liked to harass the bot, while us regulars were protective of him. They would eventually get a big surprise when the bot turned out to be a god who kicked them off the mud given sufficient harassment, and sometimes even perma-ban them. This was quite funny but also quite effective.

     screwlisp repeated this.

     Yeah sorry, I read your comic, but then I'm talking about niche Good Old Fashioned AI things. You know how in O Sarilho, the sorta internet they connect to is a person or people. This idea was quite common in research programming, programs being something like long-lived game NPCs.
     In the shared-text-adventure-but-it's-actually-real-life LambdaMOO, these NPCs are called puppets. I want to abduct your science fantasy vibes into my real life lisp programming.

     I'll make some videos of hanging out in lambda and my own lisp image stuff. Though the real trick is to find a terminal and type
     telnet lambda.moo.mud.org 80
     co guest

     I'm interested in hearing about your scifi world people stroke aliens. I just volunteered a bit too much real life context.

     @dougmerritt
     @shizamura authors https://sarilho.net/en/ , a comic about a visitor-style alien's experience in this scifi sorta-Europe on-and-off war that's happening.
     As you know, I've been working on including elements of MOOing into my lisp development images, such as player classes, and players that are MOO-style-puppets whom I think resemble some of Shizamura's characters.
     So I am trying to get them on a jitsi call during the next show or something, but I sound quite crazy, so.

     Yeah me too, although mind you, I'm coming in on the middle of this and I don't know what you two have been talking about.
