Okay, because of my pain issues, I'm going to go on break for a bit. It sucks, but...it is what it is.

Until then, this pin goes up to both explain that and to serve as the closest thing to an actual reference sheet.

Until I'm back...I hope you all have a good time! Stay safe, all.

Image of Kizu Carter from the waist up. She's a blue-ish oni with long red hair, a broken horn, numerous scars that includes one that has ruined her left eye, well-defined musculature, an old Dragunov rifle slung onto her back, a sleeveless crop top, goggles on her head, camouflaged military pants, combat boots, fingerless shooting gloves, and a long scarf. She's posed with her rifle balanced on the back of her shoulder, and she's looking into the camera in a sort of "annoyed glare" way.

Full body image of Kizu Carter. She's a blue-ish oni with long red hair, a broken horn, numerous scars that includes one that has ruined her left eye, well-defined musculature, an old Dragunov rifle slung onto her back, a sleeveless crop top, goggles on her head, camouflaged military pants, combat boots, fingerless shooting gloves, and a long scarf. She's just kind of standing there, looking awkwardly into the camera.

I'm going to keep sharing my article for a week. If you would like me to stop doing that, please hit my tip jar.

I have a VERY big bill I have to pay through no fault of my own, and if you could help me with it, I would be grateful.

I've just wrapped up a huge trilogy of articles (like 40k words)

if you like my writing, this month is REALLY urgent, as I need to raise a TON of money to pay my tax bill, which the state is making me pay early because, I shit you not, I did my taxes. Apparently a change to the balance, like filing taxes/extensions is bad

paypal.me/stompsite would help a LOT

Pay Garrick Burford using PayPal.Me

Go to paypal.me/stompsite and type in the amount. Since it’s PayPal, it's easy and secure. Don’t have a PayPal account? No worries.

...err, wait, I'm sorry, I thought you said "everyone make fun of my accent," not "everyone does".

...shit, I'm sorry, actually. I'm sure it's just an accent, and that it's fine?

Kizu Carter @kizucarter.vtubers.social · 16h

Okay -

HAHA YOU'RE JUST LIKE THE REST OF US IN THAT YOU HAVE AN ACCENT THAT IS AN INTEGRAL PART OF YOUR SPECIFIC IDIOLECT WHAT A NOOB HAHA

Kizu Carter @kizucarter.vtubers.social · 17h

I'm...uhhh, "lucky," in that the PC I'm running atm is already on 11, so at least I don't have to panic about 10 here.

I myself need to go back to nash's thread and fix some of 11's bullshit now that I'm more aware of solutions to it.

Just saw news that ICE is rolling around my state in Ice Cream trucks to snatch up kids.

I now have to be terrified of the ice cream truck jingle & my kids running outside. Like kids.

I just lost my nephew & now I have to live in fear of a piece of shit using an ice cream truck to kidnap my sons.

This is...cartoonishly fucking evil. Like, objectively...how can someone *do* this and not think they themselves *aren't* a vile waste of a person?

I'm sorry to hear about your nephew, fwiw. I hope your kids stay safe.

Just general anxiety involved in travelling, or is it something specific, like "planes"? (Obviously don't give actual specifics if you don't want to.)

“In nursing homes, neonatal units, and ICU wards, researchers are racing to turn pain—medicine’s most subjective vital sign—into something a camera or sensor can score as reliably as blood pressure.”

AI is changing how we quantify pain

Artificial intelligence is helping health-care providers better assess their patients’ discomfort.

ITT: A whole lot of options for people who are looking for solutions to windows 10's "end of support" problem.

If you're in that camp, you really need to figure out wtf you're doing, and quickly.

Nash @radiodeadair.com · 22h

There are several options but here's the short version:

You can extend your support for Windows 10 for an extra year while you go over your options long term, BUT it will require signing up for a Microsoft account even if you take the paid option.

PLEASE DO NOT RUN WINDOWS 10 UNSUPPORTED.

I mean, I really enjoyed it myself. :D

I'd buy off a bunch of speedrunners to go get world records on the worst, most ridiculous and broken games I could find.

Whether or not it's useful, at least it'd be funny to watch, lol.

doctober @docseuss.bsky.social · 2d

lets say a wizard has cursed you with a lot of money. you are going to become permanently brain damaged simply by being in possession of so much money. the only way out of it is to spend a lot of money on something ridiculous and not at all useful

what would you buy to break the curse?

Kizu Carter @kizucarter.vtubers.social · 1d

Thank you, it needed it.

Kizu Carter @kizucarter.vtubers.social · 1d

If a developer discloses use of AI, it will appear above the system requirements, like so:

AI GENERATED CONTENT DISCLOSURE
The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this: A small portion of the UI was created with AI tools.

Above the SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS section

I won't be playing any Steam Next Fest games that have used AI.

You can check the AI section on the steam store page of each game.

Our industry is suffering because workers are being replaced with AI "trained" on stolen work.

Don't support the erosion of our artform.
