> getting scammed in runescape was my first taste of bitter euphoria.

> one of my most painful moments in childhood was figuring out that the 1K big bones were swapped to 1K \[regular\] bones
> 
> i never experienced a scam before that; i remember thinking oh, they must have made a mistake, let me find them and explain that i actually wanted big bones, not regular ones
> 
> then i started panicking because as I was right clicking all over the place looking for their username (that I vaguely remembered, not exactly)
> 
> then i realized they must have logged off; i'll just find their username in my chat history / from the trade notification
> 
> ... and then realizing it was gone because there was so much chatting going on in varrock bank, so they were overwritten basically, making them disappear forever
> 
> and then it CLICKED - this was all on purpose. it felt like a moment of euphoria mixed with a sickening disgust in my stomach. someone did this on purpose to me. they hurt me, knowing they would, and now they're gone - and they'll never face any consequences because i have no way of reporting them
> 
> it was one of my first mindfucks - sure, i knew what scamming was in theory; you trick someone. but i've never been tricked before that.
> 
> from that moment on, i've diligently checked, verified, never trusted outright; i've always looked at people like if they were that same scammer, trying to do it again
> 
> i've been scammed in runescape a few more times since then, so this definitely was the first but not the last time. but with each new scam, my mental model of protection was updated.
>

> 2 hours programming with gpt-4o - definitely a huge difference. Still terrible at higher context sizes; anything over ~8K tokens is garbage.

> I really hope they don't remove this. But I don't think they will; [@sama](<https://x.com/sama>) has already talked about NSFW extensively, and it would be silly for them to remove this flirty vibe - or at the very least, allow the user to tune it to be flirty on their own.

> Ok not put more than 10K tokens into it and see if becomes retarded or not in reasoning, I dare you

> But apart from that yeah I’m excited for it I just wish they explored larger context utility more
