What I'm wearing to the Bluesky Christmas Party:
Bruce Willis as John McClane from the movie Die Hard (1988). John McClane is a NYPD detective in LA with a very dirty thin undershirt, a bloodied face and bruises all over. He is climbing through a ventilation system trying to get around terrorists holding up the building he is in. In one hand he is holding a lighter to try and find his way through the air vents.

Like look at this!

They didn't even bother to change what kind of weapon the knockoff wields! And the ult in the trailer I saw is just him jumping up for apparently no reason to slam the safe down onto the ground.

A safe made out of gold, one of the softer metals on the planet.
A zoomed in screenshot of a character from a Chinese knock-off game of Deadlock called "Gold Rush Alliance". This is their "Abrams", a young-looking rich dude with blond hair, sunglasses, a purple suit with a blue under coat and tie. He is carrying a gold accented gun and safe instead of a book. A screenshot of Abrams from Deadlock. A blue, demon-like older man with a blue detectives coat and a gold badge on his left side. He carries a heavy-looking revolver and a large tome in his other hand.

Hmmmm...with the Anniversary Update out for Fallout 4, I wonder how it's go-Oh....that's...that's only 35% positive recent reviews since the update fucked everything up....

This is why the saying 'if it ain't broken, don't fix it' exists...
A clipped screen shot depicting the Fallout 4 Steam page. The main take away here is that the game has fallen to Mostly Negative for the recent reviews. Being around 35% overall.

Nothing like watching some blatantly obvious cheaters go super toxic and somehow STILL lose the game for their team lol

Remember kiddos: cheating can't replace game sense and teamwork!

Make you set up look and sound professional, have some laughs, get some more viewers.

Proceeds to spend an hour fixing audio scuff.
Bruce Willis playing John McClane from the movie Die Hard. It is the famous scene of him crawling through the vents trying to rescue hostages during a Christmas Heist in a building. He is squeezed in there, already looking roughed up as he stares at the camera with a lighter in one hand.

Didn't get to pick up mulling spice for my apple cider, buuuuuuuuuuuuuut they had apple cider slushies and the ever popular homemade donuts! \o/
A picture of my hand holding a small cup of apple cider slushie and a plain, old fashion donut right behind it, with a bite taken out of it.

Took a nice long walk in the park after a horrible rainy weekend, and fucking hell did I get lucky today!

This elegant being dashed out right in front of me with no noise what-so-ever!

Started episode two of CR season 4, and...
A picture of the Youtuber Scott the Woz, a young man with black rimmed glasses, pale skin and dark brown hair, wearing a black hoodie. He looks down down at a simple, folded paper with hand writing on it simply saying 'Sex Manual' as he looks confused down at it. He utters the words 'Did I miss a page?' with matching yellow text right under him.

Made myself a small subscriber animation for Twitch! Since my theme is Fallout-inspired, I used the level up animation as a basis. Wish I could show the full animation, but it's too big for here it seems lol

When you go up against one of the boss npcs in Stellaris with 5 different fleets and absolutely wipe the floor with it:
An image showing Markus Greyson from the series Invincible. Mark is a young man who had just defeat a mad, multi-dimensional genius called Angstrom Levi. He goes in thinking Levi is much more powerful than he looks, only to end up wiping the floor with him after finally unleashing everything he had, ending up with a horrified look and a blood-covered face. He says, with a speech bubble next to him, 'I thought you were stronger."

Sometimes I love what procedural generated/RNG generated civilizations in Stellaris and other such games can create. For example:

A nation that has the peaceful ethic...along with the slaver civic. They're also a democratic republic!
A screen shot of an alien civilization from the game Stellaris. The point of the screen shot is to show the peaceful ethic, a classic peace symbol, and a slaver civic, the one with the ball and chain. The alien race themselves looks like Sebulba from Star Wars Phantom Menace, with a long thick neck and tiny arms in the front. They are called the Raltek Union, a slaver republic and peaceful traders.

Did want to follow up on this cause both Behavior and the specific DBD team did see people going wtf about the AI engineer job post!

Seems like they do have something in place to prevent the DBD team to being forced to use AI generated content, which is a nice change of pace tbh.
A tweet from Behaviour Interactive reading: "We've noticed a large number of comments around recent job postings and we have heard our communities loud and clear. We would like to clarify that Behaviour has a very firm policy that prevents the inclusion of anything generated by AI in Dead by Daylight or any other game we're working on, including marketing assets. Yes, Behaviour is exploring the use of generative AI tools to improve internal workflows - for for anything that ships in our games. Our policy isn't changing, and these job offerings are not for roles on any game team. We're currently revising the relevant postings to clarify both the roles and Behaviour's intended AI applications."

Oh yea! Shit forgot the tweet that got sent out. here!

I do notice it says Fan Account, but this is still some serious shit to be happening :/ DBD doesn't have the best...code sometimes.
The picture depicts a tweet by someone with the handle @dveet. It reads: BHVR is now proudly using Generative AI in their creative and programming endeavors. They're currently filling up a team specifically catered to the mass implementation of it across their internal processes! Most oversight at BHVR is work on @DeadbyDaylight. Under that read is a second linked pic reading: Behaviour Interactive is currently seeking a programmer to join the Generative AI Research Team, where you will have the opportunity to discover your true potential by exploring the possibilities that generative artificial intelligence offers. The team is responsible for researching, developing, and integrating innovate solutions using generative AI. To help us achieve our long-term vision with these technologies, we are looking for a senior programmer to join the team and be responsible for delivering frontend and backend code for various features. Your work will help enrich our internal tools and bring news ideas to life. Are you game?

Good Morning!

Woke up to seeing a certain moderation team being utter cowards towards the base that helped them get where they are.

Just as a reminder to those who hate my trans-friends...

Everyone whenever a company now-a-days introduces a new stupid AI feature (Wish I knew who to give credit to!):
A two scene image of Christian Bale playing Patrick Bateman from the 2000's movie American Psycho. The image originally depicted Batemen and a few other coworkers looking at each other business cards to see who is the best at branding. Now Bateman is saying with matching yellow text 'Oh, you added a new AI feature? Impressive. Very Nice. Now, show me how I disable it.'

With in the first hour, I managed to follow directions to do this!

Despite the heat and the walking, this was still WELL worth it!
A picture taken from the top of Mount Yahiko in Niigata, Japan. Shown is a downward shot of the valley below the mountain, with the village Yahiko just peaking through two cliff edges. Though it is still a bit foggy so it is hard to see further out towards the back.

One of my favorite little moments from TADC Ep 6.

I loved the heart-to-heart between Gangle and Zooble, cause I'm emotionally weak and it was wholesome as fuck, but seeing Zooble give the little 'You go, you crazy Tommy-Gun totin' gal' as they watch on was the cherry on top!

#tadc
A screen shot of Zooble from The Amazing Digital Circus Episode 6. Zooble is a mishmash of random, colorful parts like how some early toys were like Lego. They are are looking on down a pipe as off screen, their partner Gangle charges at two other contestants while laughing excitedly with a tommy gun!

And back from my day trip. Fuck, I'm gonna miss the semi-easy access to going to out of the way areas that don't require you to drive.

Like, look at this! Look at this beauty!

Man...fuck living in the suburbs sometimes back home...
