Anyway here's Mihoyo promoting AI assisted game production including:

"Efficiency in Image and Material Generation
With very few materials, they can generate character model sheets + 3D models, allowing for the testing of multiple designs and their artistic outcomes."

Something to keep an eye on.

A promotional image from Mihoyo for "AI Job Openings" that explains "in the world of Honkai we have always believed that AI can create infinite possibilities"

Examples of 2D artwork and 3D models that demonstrate how the AI would allow them to see how models would appear when translated from one to the other

An example of the Honkai Star Rail mascot Pom-Pom chatting to the playing using AI technology

Bader was in my dreams.

I was dreaming of something else, and right before thunder woke me up, I saw their blue espeon. It was all white.

Teiji smiled at me, and then faded into white, and I woke up.

I hope it was a sign. I hope they're in a good place. 💜

So the external HDD I've been using for the past few years to hold all my art files, has given me a 'driver error' notif on my surface pro. My files are still intact, but given I've dropped it more than most would trust, I should probably change ASAP. Thus, the goal has changed to smth more urgent.

If its the ones with the heat up pouches with like wheat inside it, don't worry about it too much. Those things burn all the time - my kids both have one and it stinks out the microwave every time. It's a common flaw. ;v;

She was terrific. Keeping Up Appearances was a constant in my living room.

One time at school we were all reading out our essays, and one student made a quick reference to the most recent Keeping Up Appearances episode, and the whole class - teacher included - laughed uproariously.

Rest in peace.

This includes BIRTH CONTROL, by the way. As well as a shitload of mood stabilizers. Do NOT eat "spooky" black foods and snacks. Just don't.
