Barony with @darksaber2k.bsky.social and @memoriesin8bit.bsky.social in 8 minutes at twitch.tv/gogcom!

Did I mention that we beat the Baron last time we played?
We're down in the OTHER dungeon tonight!

We're infiltrating a sahuagin fortress, trying to be stealthy.
What could possibly go wrong?

Ein Screenshot eines Teils einer Spielbeschreibung.
Hier steht:
"Abschließender Hinweis: Laysara: Summit Kingdom ist eine reine StÀdtebau-Simulation, bei der die Wirtschaft, das Ressourcenmanagement und Survival im Vordergrund stehen. Aus diesem Grund gibt es im Spiel weder KÀmpfe noch militÀrische Elemente."

Das klingt nach der Sorte Aufbauf-Sim, auf die ich zur Zeit Lust habe.

β€œHey boss, are you sure Flamigo is more popular than Charizard, and people aren’t just misspelling β€˜Flamingo’ on Google?”

β€œDon’t be ridiculous. Of course Flamigo is more popular than Charizard, Mewtwo, Eevee, and Snorlax. Send the email.”

Beyond offering simple services to estimate your age, Persona's exposed code compares your selfie to watchlist photos using facial recognition, screens you against 14 categories of adverse media from mentions of terrorism to espionage, and tags reports with codenames from active intelligence programs consisting of public-private partnerships to combat online child exploitative material, cannabis trafficking, fentanyl trafficking, romance fraud, money laundering, and illegal wildlife trade.
Once a user verifies their identity with Persona, the software performs 269 distinct verification checks and scours the internet
and government sources for potential matches, such as by matching your face to politically exposed persons (PEPs), and generating risk and similarity scores for each individual. IP addresses, browser fingerprints, device fingerprints, government ID numbers, phone numbers, names, faces, and even selfie backgrounds are analyzed and retained for up to three years.

Like whatever the average normie Discord user THINKS age verification looks like behind the curtain, I promise you this is not it.

Update: Exactly what we knew would happen. Discord dumped one breached verification vendor for another and hey look that one exposed personal information too. Because age verification is inherently a privacy risk.

"I am the farm worker going home at evening": gender fluidity, rural landscapes, and the Women's Land Army Archivist Lottie Wood explores gender and landscapes in E. M. Barraud's reflections on her time in the Women's Land Army.

A common fictional narrative shows people with nonconforming identities finding self-acceptance in towns and cities.

This #LGBTQHistoryMonth, archivist Lottie Wood explores how author E. M. Barraud found the opposite, through rural work and the Women’s Land Army.

Due to popular demand, here is a demonstration video of how to make 3D printed PCBs using just vector drawing software, a 3D printed (PETG filament for mine) and self-adhesive copper tape. Any questions, let me know!

This reminds me of a coupla decades ago when the argument du jour was β€œWhat if Van Gogh had been medicated for his depression?!” with the implication that he wouldn’t have created art if he wasn’t miserable.

A) fuck that noise
B) Van Gogh didn’t own anybody his art OR his misery

I propose to make universal the old policy of the Blackfriars conference at the American Shakespeare Center:

If you do not end your paper on time, you will be forced to exit, pursued by a bear. Literally, a bear will come take your paper from you.

"itsemimi" on Instagram draws Furbies and Furby-derivative creatures in a faux-VHS-on-cathode-ray-TV style, saying 90s-anime-esque lines, and it's.

Weirdly fascinating.

So what's gonna happen there? She's going to have to constantly cycle through pen name after pen name, regurgitating books in different formats, and she'll be joined by thousands of other content extruders all fighting over the same "we fooled you" dollars.
