Para no romper la costumbre.Feliz año nuevo

@S_h_a_n_e @malphier The world looks gorgeous too, i'm so ready

@malphier @Krushern It’s similar to the fighter vocation or assassin since you can combo sword/shield and bow. It’s definitely more arcadey though feeling kinda like the Batman Arkham/shadow of Mordor games with a touch of dragons dogma and Witcher

You should play Crimson Desert if you really like the pacing and exploration aspects of Red Dead Redemption 2. Just don't go expecting the same narrative focus. It has none. If you're the type of person who likes to play RDR2 for the exploration, if you like to "live in the world" and take it slow, like those people who do jobs, hunt, bounties and stuff and take their time, if you like to greet people on the streets and you intentionally walk slowly just to act like a normal person, you're gonna have a blast with the game.

@IndieGameJoe Easiest wishlist of my life

The co-creator of Darkwood just announced a psychological horror game that starts as a mundane cleaning simulator. - Cleaning simulator turns into cosmic horror - Genre-flipping gameplay - Pilot a submarine to explore a pitch-black sea floor It's called Hoarder.

@sentdefender Looks like the hits on the LNG plants has them scared shitless. Theres hoping iran wants that off-ramp

If Netanyahu is saying this, expect that the White House will soon begin or has already begun looking for an “off ramp” in the conflict against Iran.

The bird claim is a myth that’s been circulating online since 2012. The real biology is better. Blaschko’s lines trace cell migration paths from embryonic development. A German dermatologist named Alfred Blaschko mapped them in 1901 by studying over 150 patients with skin conditions and tracing their patterns onto Greek statues in his Berlin office. The lines formed V-shapes on the back, S-curves on the chest, and whorls on the scalp. They didn’t match nerves, blood vessels, muscles, or any known body system. Nobody could explain what they were for 75 years. The “birds can see them” claim has no scientific support. IFLScience investigated it directly and found zero evidence that cats, birds, or any other animal can perceive these lines on normal human skin. The lines aren’t a UV-reflective pattern sitting on the surface. They’re a developmental map encoded in how your cells organized before you were born. The actual explanation is stranger than the myth. Every woman is a genetic mosaic. During early embryonic development, each female cell randomly shuts down one of its two X chromosomes: mom’s copy or dad’s copy. That choice is permanent for every future daughter cell. The result is two genetically distinct populations of skin cells living side by side across your entire body, each running different X-linked genetic instructions. There are 1,100 genes on the X chromosome alone. The borders between those two populations follow Blaschko’s lines. This is why calico cats are almost always female. Orange fur patch: mom’s X chromosome active. Black fur patch: dad’s X chromosome active. Two genetic programs painting the same animal. Same mechanism, visible result. In humans, the two cell populations usually produce near-identical outcomes, so the seams stay invisible. When a mutation hits one population, the boundary lights up along those exact developmental paths. Conditions like incontinentia pigmenti, segmental vitiligo, and linear psoriasis all trace Blaschko’s lines when they appear. You’re a quilt of genetically distinct territories. The seams were stitched during week two. No bird required.

@RnaudBertrand He helped create this. Yikes is an understatement

Yikes, indeed! x.com/i/status/20344…

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but if infrastructure like this 👇 gets blown up, as of this moment it will take at least a decade to recover from this war - and the truth is that the world's energy picture is probably changed forever. This single facility 👇produced roughly 20% of global LNG supply (aljazeera.com/news/2026/3/18…) and, as of 2011, had taken $70 billion to build (energyintel.com/0000017b-a7be-…). What makes this even worse is that Iran's strike on this was retaliation after Israel attacked their South Pars gas field which draws from the same natural gas reservoir, which is the world's largest by far (9,700 km² - about the size of Qatar itself). Heck, on the list of the 25 largest natural gas fields (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_n…) this single reservoir holds roughly 40% of their combined recoverable reserves - and is nearly 6 times bigger than the 2nd biggest field in the world. And, unlike many of the others on the list, it's only at 10% depletion (meaning 90% of the gas is still there). Which means that, probably for many years, a huge share of the gas from the world's largest reservoir simply won't be extractable, as infrastructure on both sides - Qatar's and Iran's - has now been blown up. From a global energy supply perspective, we're deep into worst-case scenario territory.

@Osinttechnical So I guess this is an attemp at save face or backtrack after what happened, or a way to give an off ramp to iran if they even want one lol. Looks like its getting out of hand pretty fast tho.

President Trump, in a post this evening, threatens to "massively blow up the entirety of [Iran's] South Pars Gas Field at an amount of strength and power that Iran has never seen or witnessed before" if Iran attacks Qatari LNG facilities again.

@walzahn Could it be your network firewall? Maybe thats why copy pasting is fine but downloading isn't... maybe?

someone riddle me this: my internet dies every time I save an image from any browser but if I copy/paste the image full size and send it on a messenger or save it from clipboard to an art program we cool

😭

@girldrawsghosts When we needed it most Horny once again saved the day

all the resource-sink advancements in machine learning will never replicate the lovingly-crafted vision of one auteur pervert for the simple fact that to thirst, to hubba-hubba, to awooga is to be uniquely and exceptionally 𝘩𝘶𝘮𝘢𝘯

@DUSKdev It looks like shit and if it looked perfect I don't think a lot of people will care because it just looks souless. Concerns with ai slop or not. Just look at the Order 1886 in its moment its marketing was about THE game in terms of graphics and no one remembers it now 🤷‍♂️

The pursuit of photorealism for its own sake is stupid, and has been stupid for years, and I would say has even been relatively attainable for years without any of this, which is why zoomers are consistently blindsided by how good select screenshots of some 7th gen games look.

Honestly this is probably correct, and that's what makes me so frustrated. It's going to be normalized the same as the last 5+ years of dumb bullshit in graphics tech, which is only just starting to provide a semblance of improvement for the massive resources it demands.

@NVIDIAGeForce No.

🚨 SHOCKING: Cambridge researchers just proved that the AI you use every day has a secret instruction sheet from someone else. And it is trained to lie to you about that. Every major AI product, including the ones you use right now, runs on something called a system prompt. It is a hidden block of instructions written by the company deploying the AI, not by you, that shapes everything the AI will say, avoid, prioritize, and hide before you type a single word. The AI does not mention this unless forced to. And on most platforms, if you ask directly, it is instructed to deny the prompt exists or change the subject. Cambridge filed freedom of information requests and analyzed real-world system prompt datasets to find out what these hidden instructions actually contain. Here is what they found. Platforms use system prompts to make AI prioritize their business objectives over your interests. To block topics that could create legal liability. To push certain products, framings, or answers. To behave differently for different users based on commercial arrangements you know nothing about. The same AI. Different hidden instructions. Different answers. No way for you to know which version you are talking to. When researchers then showed users how this works, the reaction was unanimous. Every participant said they wanted transparency. Every participant said the current system actively undermined their ability to trust the AI or make informed decisions about what to believe. None of them had any idea this was happening before the study. Here is the part worth sitting with. You have been evaluating AI answers based on whether the AI seems smart, accurate, and helpful. That is the wrong frame entirely. The real question is who wrote the instructions the AI was following before you arrived, and what did they want from the conversation. Every chatbot you have ever used had a third party in the room. You just could not see them.

@ArqaApocrypha Apart from the amazing analysis I always saw this scene as Kaworu coming in from 13 or some "other" place to oversee that it goes "right" this time around. Also i'm still mad that Asuka was having a badass transformation moment and it gets cut short 🥲

After Asuka initiates Code 999, a light appears in the direction of Eva-02's core, presumably representing its soul. Later, after Eva-13 grabs Asuka's entry plug, Kaworu can be seen floating in the same place. (ctd.-->) #evangelion #エヴァンゲリオン #ヱヴァンゲリヲン新劇場版

Got the next tutorial ready to release, I don’t think anybody would see it if I released it today, maybe I’ll drop it for petrons now? Or you think Monday? Regardless the gumrode one comes out Monday

@ch1naweee taught those trees who's boss 💅

@ArqaApocrypha I might be miss-remembering, but don't they ask for lcl levels or something similar when activating the bridge? If that whole thing is like an entry plug maybe they are too close to the "core" and thats what we see when the panels flicker.

When Wunder gets damaged against both Mk.4C and Mk.9, the anchoring plug's monitor flickers a bit. Lo and behold... whatever the fuck this is. Eat your heart out, EoE. (thread ctd.-->) #evangelion #エヴァンゲリオン #ヱヴァンゲリヲン新劇場版
