Hey @tharkka.bsky.social, a long, LONG time ago, I yoinked one of your sprites from DeviantArt, and made an edit that was on my PFP for a while until 2020. Finally came back to do your art style back then the justice it deserves now. #Pixelart #remake
What? It's obvious! Daniel can't die! [pokingbody.png] Watch, he'll come back any second now... Any second now... See?! Back! Oh, wait... [glowinglight.jpeg] He's ascending... #SaveStargate
So I have no reliable source that can confirm this information, but supposedly, Discord made an error when it comes to their moderation systems and might detect pixel art as csam. If you are a fellow pixel artist who received such a suspension, please make sure to share it and mention me! >>>>>
Huh, seems like even Curiosity wants to show its support for #Stargate all the way out from Mars! #SaveStargate
Items not on my bingo card #236: remote detonators being sold in fireworks tents. $50 says the app that's required needs to keep a constant online connection and has a fuckload of trackers. Fucking stupid they thought this was a good idea...
So, I just rediscovered the forum badge I set up on my NewGrounds account, and man, I really need to revisit this considering I've deleted my Imgur account over 6 months ago
While I did record a timelapse, I forgot that trying to export the recording would break when messing with indexxed mode, so instead enjoy some trivia about the reference material I used for this project! (check alt text!)
I mean seriously, I knew we had these algorithms out there, I was messing with one during lockdown! Now, I can't find it again. Thanks Sam Altman for fucking ruining finding someone else's math!
I think the biggest change overall were the rules, I didn't update that thing for so damn long, and yet, I forgot to get a screenshot to know the last rules update. This is the only surviving copy, sitting in my notepad for reference when using a rules bot for easier updating.
Wow, so its a bit humbling going through and looking at the ol' discord server. I did such a MASSIVE retrofit, since the last major update I did for it was in March 2020 according to my announcements. Next year, it turns 10.
Sliders, and I know why its legacy is mostly forgotten by the larger sci-fi community, Season 5. They changed so much of the core of it that the franchise imploded, especially by getting rid of Jerry O'Connell!
As below, so too we will display our laments above! #savestargate Photo credit: Kirstyl Green on Twitter
Don't forget the fact that it damages all of the spaces for adults too! These bans demand privacy violations en masse! I've attached a few reasons why forced ID is a bad idea below
Situation: Game's on sale, but the game+OST is simultaneously more expensive and cheaper than buying JUST the base game. [Brain proceeds to leak out of nose]
"Hmm, I feel like playing some Deadlight" >Installs the game to the laptop >Brutal lag on the main menu "Well then, maybe my desktop can handle it" >Hits power button ? >Hits it again ???? >Holds the power button >Checks power supply "Fuck..." >Its dead.
Last year, I made this to celebrate #Stargate getting a revival. Nearly 6 months after completing this, SG got canned by executives who fail to know better. Prove them wrong and #SaveStargate! www.change.org/p/save-the-n...
Bored, casually turned the Guy Fawkes mask (you'd probably know it better as the Anonymous mask) into an airsoft mask in #gimp. Might consider doing alt variants... #imagemanipulation #photoshop #art
As a proper demo, I've decided to append #SaveStargate to my badge now. I still gotta do all of this manually sadly, but it's all just long work, rather than hard work lol
I finally, FINALLY have a method to create my own badges without needing to use the badge magic app to program it. I am however disappointed it has to be in a spreadsheet instead of Aseprite... #pixelart #programming
Willow wanted belly rubs, and this was her expression while getting some. First pic 100% looks like something you'd see from an old meme
