A Work-in-Progress outfit using two of the newer cosmetics from @officiallotro.bsky.social: Golden Lion Armour (dyed black) and the Ceremonial Jaunty Sword (with the Golden Lion aura).

(Full List in ALT text).

This tunic is great and I have other shoulder and feet items that don't clip🙌.

#LOTRO
Side view of an outfit with a the huge curved sword and the lace cloak being the main focuses from this angle. The bracers' full name is the "Leather Bracers of the Gentle Stag", but I ran out of space in the post text. An outfit featuring a white hood, a folded shoulder-wrap that ends in a coil on the left shoulder, and an armoured tunic, where the chest area has plate armour and the lower half is made up of vertical strips of studded leather. Full Item list is: - Golden Lion Armour (Dyed Black) - Ceremonial Jaunty Sword (with Golden Lion Weapon Aura). Other items are - Hood of the White Mountains (quest reward) | White Dye - Autumn Shade Shoulder-guards (Lalia's) | White Dye - Bridal Veil (Midsummer Festival) - Mariner's Boots (I think mariner class starter gear) - Leather Bracers of the Gentle Stag (Dunland Quest reward) | White Dye though I've already changed it to black)

VPN users, ha. The way things are at the moment, the vast majority of those are likely to be real people

None of those groups are even logical to exclude. Adblocker users is particularly vicious.

As for lurkers, I stopped streaming years ago and I was glad for lurkers. They showed you weren't alone and they enjoyed watching you.

AI can only "care" about metrics. The same must be true of their makers.

I've put up a partially-public #Patreon post covering what's coming up from me this month.

(Crew members get the full article).

I'm still not well, but this post covers #LOTRO, #FFXIV and that rest thing I absolutely must get.

Thanks!

Yeah, that's really weird. Not heard of that before.

I didn't ask what you were pasting *into* but now I'm looking into it I think it might be related to Colour Profiles. Some thing about assigning the colour profile to the document first.

You've made me wonder if I could reproduce this now, ha.

Thanks , but I am aware of all this. That's why I finally went to this community, I thought I had overlooked something. All is well now after unchecking all the boxes, then rechecking them again. I th...

[Cross-Platform] After a week of illness, I've managed to have some time questing in #LOTRO. I've done most of the Shield Isles soloable quests, so next time it's on towards Umbar, the actual city.

PS: The new birder trousers (pictured) dye well. Need tips on non-clipping boots!
My main LOTRO Character in a Black and dark yellow mariner-style top and black, belted trousers. She's standing high on a ship looking beyond the "camera" and shielding her eyes as she does.

A monster from a parallel universe that are similar to the Hyur, but would shock all watchers of the Arcadion with their brutality, huge ranged AoE damage, taunting of opponents and great at manipulating the crowds.

They'd be given the Feral Soul of the Earth-bound Human.

I'm back in my office at last, though with a broken lock to make it possible.

I will be gaming tonight, once I've run any updates. Me and NJ have the same bug and it's not going away.

But next week I must be productive.

I need to start saving for a new, more secure door (1+year probably).

I had to use my wife's laptop and my password vault, because I only own a PC, which is in the office.

Thanks again @eldasescape.bsky.social, I really appreciate it.

Even if the actual festival got here quicker than I realised.

Thanks to Elda @lotrofamily.bsky.social, I've managed to log into my website and update my Fall Fest Guide with what I think are the correct dates and other things.

I'm still locked out of my office, though a neighbour is about to help me break and enter it...

But at least I'll get in.

At the college my wife works at, if a student needs a photocopy (running it through a machine) of more than 40% of a book or other work, they have to get the author's **written** consent, even if it's a purchased work.

If they don't they could be breaching copyright.

Your example is no different.

The machines aren't reading a book as part of research. They are literally adding whole works into a ginormous set of databases. That's not interpretation, that's copying.

In no other (real-life, believable) situation I can think of would that, without attribution, be even vaguely permitted.

I now don't know when I'll get to game... Or even use my computer. Why?

I've lost the key to my office summerhouse. There's only one (my fault). Me and wifey spent like 1½ hours looking.

We have power, but not everyone has, and not all roads have been passable.

I'll look again in daylight...

These things should be opt-in, not opt-out.

It's called Copyright for a reason. That declares ownership. To use it without payment is breach of copyright, or plagiarism... Or just downright theft.

What's disturbing is these companies don't care about breaking the law. And usually get away with it.

That's really odd. They almost look intentional, though!

Can you switch to a different screenshot method? If you can, and the same happens, that would help. And if it doesn't, it's a glitch with your normal method

We're through the strongest gusts of #StormAmy.

I've been working on this coloured pencil #drawing during the evening and strong winds.

Look after yourselves, I'm off to try and sleep.

G'night, #StaySafe, #BeKind
A coloured pencil drawing - started and nowhere near finished. It's the side profile of the head and shoulders of a dark-skinned Lady, with long, black and exceedingly curly hair. She has a silver band around the head and is looking sideways at the "camera".

We've had a short powercut due to #StormAmy. Winds have not reached their predicted peak of 80mph yet.

I'm still struggling with really high pain and NJ is easily triggered today. But we are all inside the stone house (I'm not in my shed office).

My personal timeline is full of autistic people trying to explain that there isn't more autism than before, it's just that we're better at detecting it, and there's nothing more autistic than hoping explaining something at length will help matters when nobody is really listening.

If you're waiting for a reply from me, or wondering why I'm not around, it's because I'm still ill and either fighting high pain or energy crashes.

I've not been up to loading my main computer either because of head sensitivity. I'm really fed up of this now. But all I can do is wait for it to go.
