the reason i Do Stuff Online is i was an obsessive webcomic reader as a teen; i did a little email interview with Fred Gallagher of Megatokyo for a school project!

so the siloing of webcomics from websites and collectives into one giant corporate-owned walled garden just... infuriates me to no end

Itโ€™s our second game of 2nd edition 40k! We got the flocked mats at the model shop today and printed some terrain from @doctorspork.bsky.social!

The dream of the 90โ€™s is alive!!

Subtle, yes. Tho it makes a big difference, really pushes the poses and feel of the individual models.
It's small tweak to each mini overall but you've really pushed the poses without going over the top, or into characterture.

Does this technically count as a new kind of "woozle"?

Eagerly awaiting this & keeping a hawkish eye on WarCom for the release announcement. Very curious to see what the actual sketches & inserts WarCom teased as being in this edition, are actually abt.

Really hoping this continues, either in shorts or a full blown follow up. Hopefully the overlords at GW/BL are happy enough with the sales; so if youโ€™re even vaguely interested, go buy a copy!

BL of late has really doubled down on sales as the only driver for more novels.

A photo of a softbacked US print style book on a wooden desk. The cover has several alien figures, Tโ€™au; with all of the five casteโ€™s represented. Going counter clockwise: Earth, Water, fire, air & ethereal at the centre.
The novel is titled โ€œElemental Councilโ€ & is by the Author Noah Van Nguyen. The novel was published by Black Library, a subsidiary of Games Workshop, owners of the Warhammer 40,000 IP, whose logo can be seen at the centre top of the cover.

Just finished up โ€œElemental Councilโ€ by @noahvannguyen.bsky.social, my first time with this author & their deffo one to watch.

Real page turner from start to finish, lots of fun lilโ€™lore tid bits, tho never distracted from the mystery at its heart. Ke & Orr were standout characters for me.

It's fine. Early on he more closely modelled his performance to Spader, but as the series went on, made the role more his own.
Think it goes to show how good he was as Daniel, that some folks didn't twig they were two different actors until WAY later.

Considering our boiler goddamn blew around this time last year, mโ€™sorry to hear that. That was 6 weeks of hell for us, boiling water in pans, & praying the pipes didnโ€™t freeze during a Scottish cold snap.

The non-humanoid joint timing design seen in this unconventional mobile suit (the Byarlant) became popular around the time of the Gryps Conflict as a tactic for gaining situational advantage by placing an enormous computational burden on the enemyโ€™s predictive calculations upon first encounter. As a result, it significantly broadened the range of mobile suit design.

Originally, the use of multiple joints in mobile suits also had the effect of reducing the accuracy of the constant future-prediction calculations performed in combat; it is said that adding ten more joints increases the computational load by a factor of ten billion. Of course, there are various other reasons for adopting multi-jointed structures as well, such as forming suspension mechanisms or doubling angular velocity.
