Without context, the Chinese term "Full Blood Resurrection" sounds metal AF in English.

Japan has contributed, and continues to contribute, many wonderful innovations to the world in a variety of fields. Unfortunately, sometimes Japan’s good ideas have trouble escaping Japan. Learn about the so-called "Galapagos Effect" below.

I remember @charalanahzard.bsky.social 's reaction to THAT moment in AW2 saying that we needed to protect Remedy at all cost... Can't help but thinking that we failed 😞

Discord is already starting to walk things back a little, so people should keep doing what they're doing (cancel Nitro, leave feedback/criticism, direct contact through support tickets/phone/email/etc)
Tl;dr: The vast majority of adults will never have to interact with our age assurance systems and their experience won't change, because we know Discord and how people use it, so we're designing to respect privacy and deliver a safer experience while minimizing friction for adults. Hey folks – I’ve been on Discord since very early 2016 and actually joined the company in 2017. Safety is one of my areas, so today’s announcement on our blog is something I’ve been pretty involved with. I’ve always cared about Discord's approach to privacy (E2EE for A/V was another of my projects here), so I figured I’d add some more context to today's news. I can say confidently that the vast majority of people will never see age verification. I say this because we launched age assurance in the UK and Australia in 2025, and we have some pretty good data on this now. The idea here is that we can pre-identify most adults based on what we already know (not including your messages!), and that looks to get us pretty far here. No face scans, no IDs, for the vast majority of adults. And if you are one of the smaller subset of folks that we can't definitively pre-identify, then still, you only have to do it if you're accessing age-restricted servers or channels, or changing certain settings. That's really not most users. (Altho... might be more Redditors, tbh.) Last, I know that there is concern about privacy and data leaks. That's a real concern. The selfie system is built purely client-side, it never leaves your device, and we did that intentionally. That'll work for a bunch of users who aren't pre-identified as adults. But if you do end up in the ID bucket, then yeah, you're right that has some risk. We're doing what we can to minimize this by working with our range of partners (who are different partners than the data leak you read about), and if it's any help, we learned a lot internally from the last issue. But I get if that doesn't necessarily inspire more confidence. Anyway, we’ll be sharing more next month as we get closer to the global roll out about the system, including the technology behind it in March. I honestly wouldn't be happy if we didn't build something good and I am excited about what we’re launching, but please let us know what you think when we share more details. And I really appreciate everybody's feedback here today. We’re definitely reading it!

Farewell My Concubine (霸王别姬) captures a haunting moment of love and ruin. Surrounded at Gaixia, Xiang Yu’s army faltered as Han soldiers sang Chu songs to shatter their will. In a final act of devotion, his concubine Yu Ji danced a sword dance, then took her own life, so he could fight 1/2

I am at the grand opening of the "Church Arcade" here in the Pittsburgh area.

A really cool new arcade located in an old repurpased church. Vibes are immaculate and the game selection is great.

All American cabs, but a good variety of classics, shooters, fighters, driving, and pinball games.

From time to time I see misinfo in regards to the scrapped Tribes, so I'm putting stuff out:

Pirate and Angelus were *not* meant for SF2 and it wasn't supposed to actually have 5 versions. It was meant for 3 before they chose something unique in Noise Change
Pirate Mega Man: Before the developers had decided on the Noise Change system, they considered this new Tribe form, tentatively called Pirate Mega Man. This is the Tribe transformation for the pirate Tribe. The pirate theme led to images of a giant pirate ship and a pirate captain wearing an oversized pirate hat. Since the Mega Buster's appearance changes with each Tribe transformation, I wasn't sure whether to bring the pirate captain motif in on Mega Man's head or arm, but when I considered the fact that having the pirate captain as the buster made it seem like the captain was controlling Mega Man, I settled on having the buster shaped like a ship instead. (Ueda) Angelus Mega Man: The Angelus Mega Man design was done at around the same time as the Pirate Mega Man design. This is the foundation upon which the final "ultimate transformations" was built. This transformation comes from an angel-based Tribe. The name says "Angelus", but the design was more inspired by Cupid. If you look at Omega-Xis from above, he is shaped like a heart. The crossbow on Mega Man's right arm was going to fire bolts loaded with explosives, so that each bolt caused a giant explosion on impact. (Ueda)

Waarom zet je trouwens ingrepen in de WW en de WIA in je akkoord als je weet dat je die over links niet door een 1e Kamer krijgt en over rechts waarschijnlijk niet door een 2e en 1e Kamer. Tenminste, als Geert Wilders echt zo links is sociaal-economisch als er gezegd wordt komt het er nooit doorheen

Jetten over asielmaatregelen:"Door nu maatregelen te nemen, willen wij ervoor zorgen dat de volgende verkiezingen 'een keer niet over mi- gratie gaan."

Intussen worden de plannen van PVV / Faber uitgevoerd alsof het de normaalste zaak van de wereld is.

En is normaal gemaakt wat niet normaal is.

Je moet Yesilgöz nageven dat ze een uitstekende onderhandelaar is. Je verliest 2/3 van je electoraat, maar drukt er een VVD verhaal doorheen bij @robjetten.bsky.social en @dianabhenriques.bsky.social Nou ja, Rob kan een paar maanden premier op zijn CV zetten en gunt GL-PvdA een monsterscore straks.

Niet alleen Jetten valt me tegen met nul aandacht voor klimaat & milieu, maar wat is er met het “fatsoen” van Bontenbal gebeurd? Met zoveel nadelen voor zorg, sociale zekerheid en asielbeleid is het zoeken als naar de speld in de hooiberg.

We kunnen concluderen dat de @vvdonline.bsky.social geen zak doet voor hun 'hardwerkende Nederlander'. De schilder die met 16 ging werken en op zijn 60e ontslagen wordt of arbeidsongeschikt kan zijn huis verkopen. Dat alles om vermogenden die meer verdienen met aandelen dan jij met werken te ontzien
