In a world where you can just buy a potion of invisibility from a street vendor for the price of a hot-dog, some people being able to do it innately, but only once a day and only for 30 seconds, probably wouldn't be all that remarkable.
Astroeugenics are really funny when taken to their logical extreme in fantasy. What do you mean everyone born in May can turn invisible and not one single person in the world remarks on it.
I wish there was a bit more exploration of the birthsigns for everyone else. For example, those born under the Shadow have the natural ability to turn invisible. This is the equivalent of anyone born during the month of May in our world being able to turn invisible.

I still remember making the move from C64 to Amiga 600 and thinking "holy shit, this thing is blazing fast, I am truly living in the future now"
Saw my first two computers in a shop earlier. Hours of waiting for things to load. Programming stuff. Absolute bliss. The waiting made everything so much more special.

I always wanted to have a bunch of random switches on my dashboard that I could flip pretending I'm doing the pre-launch sequence.

Does everyone just use lazyvim these days?

I see a lot of plugins that don't even bother providing installation for anything but lazyvim.

I don't want to use lazyvim because I'm not lazy. :P

My little nephew asked me what he should draw so I asked for Wolverine.

Now I need to find a place to hang this big ass masterpiece. I’m going to ask him to draw Cyclops next.

Now I really want to see a full Necromunda gang made out of Arcane characters.
Still my favourite miniature, had a blast doing the kitbash and really happy with the paint job. Only thing I would change is the colour of the shin armour to a brown rusted metal or the same red as the vest.
