oh you see it’s me

I am home now

someone on twitter is trying to claim that use of an em-dash is an indication of AI-generated writing because it’s “relatively rare” for actual humans to use it. skill issue

Here you go, have some Sunday Piece Of Lore

That’s actually a great explanation as to why our bad batchers seem to be of different ages despite having been decanted the same day (as per commandos lore).

If this is the case, they could be the same chronological age but not the same biologic age, and honestly that makes a ton of sense seeing how Crosshair looks much older than Tech for example, or even Wrecker, despite both of them having been decanted before him ! And I’m not even talking about the grey hair, their faces have different aging traits.

So yeah, very cool ! Thank you again « Star Wars Republic Commando : True Colours », you’re that toxic friend that knows-it-all and hurts me a lot but who is so mesmerising that I can’t let go 👍🏻

HAPPY (belated) BIRTHDAY JANUS!!

I'm having an art block moment where a couple of the bigger complicated things I really want to do aren't working so I decided to fall back on some simple painterly stuff

I hope he's having a nice time.

A digital painting of Commander Fox's Gen 2 helmet. Its sitting on an angle on the ground as a small bunch of Tiger Lillie's grow out from under it. Text at the top of the image reads "I hope this email doesn't reach you. I hope that you've escaped, that you're free."

I hate Palpatine. He bad

Reblog if you hate Palpatine.

open a new window somewhere in the world. 

you know, i have this whole schpeel in my head that i need to yap about.

the kudos-to-hits ratio in fanfic is way off.

i'm not only saying this as a writer, but as a reader too.

if you like a fic, even mildly like it, leave kudos. if the first few chapters are kinda meh but you think it can get better, leave kudos. if there's even one bit that you think was kinda enjoyable, leave kudos.

you don't need to have an account to leave kudos. it doesn't cost money, it doesn't take extra effort. it is literally pressing a button when you get to the end of your fic.

and for people who "don't want their account attached to that fic" that's bullshit. you're literally talking to strangers on the internet. i doubt they care about you reading smutty fanfiction.

i have more to say, but in summation, people just need to leave kudos.

There's an EU initiative going on right now that essentially boils down to wanting to force videogame publishers with paid games and/or games with paid elements such as DLC, expansions and microtransactions to leave said games in a playable state after they end support, or in simpler terms, make them stop killing games.

A "playable state" would be something like an offline mode for previously always online titles, or the ability for people to host their own servers where reasonably possible just to name some examples.

I don't think I need to tell anyone that having something you paid for being taken from you is bad, which is a thing that routinely happens with live service and other always online games with a notable recent example being The Crew which is now permanently unplayable.

Any EU citizen is eligible to sign the initiative, but only once and if you mess up that's it. You can find it here. (https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu/initiatives/details/2024/000007_en)

Even if you're not European or you signed it already, you can share this initiative with anyone who is, even if they don't care about videogames specifically because this needs a million signatures and there is different thresholds that need to be met for each EU country for their votes to even count and could also be a precedent for other similar practices like when Sony removed a bunch of Discovery TV content people paid for.
