So I recently watched Louis Rossmann's videos about Flock and LiveView AI Surveillance and... It's not just that it LOOKS very bad, it is INDEED very bad, because It's already been demonstrated to be subject to absolutely insane levels of systematic abuse.
I'm terrified, dude.

Just finished watching the long overdue collab between @blucoolknux.bsky.social , @retiu.me , Dant876 (Doesn't seem to be on Bluesky, sadly), and I where we watch Retiu send the Sega CD's US 1.1.0 BIOS to Hell and back for the sake of our amusement.
Ah, good memories.

I've been fixated on Mine Yoshizaki's art for the past 2 years now, so I figured I'd do an art study and write down what I learn (and/or presume) from his styles throughout time as I go along.
Starting with the eyes as that's the part I've gained the most confidence in drawing as of now.

Moon Mountain Pass from #starfoxadventures remastered with high quality samples from the original source audio.
This was my second attempt posting this, as the audio was lost in the trimming process for my first attempt, whoops. All just to get the video below 3 minutes.
Anyways, Happy Halloween.

I just opened a new tab in Firefox and I kid you not, literally 5 of the first 6 'Thought-provoking stories' (disregarding sponsored posts) are related to Politics.
I'm a little uneasy, I'll admit.

IMPORTANT UPDATE:
Denmark has scheduled a vote on Chat Control the 14th of October. Despite not wanting to break end-to-end encryption, 🇩🇪 Germany remains both UNDECIDED and critical to defeating the proposal.

Autism isn’t a disease to be cured or even eradicated. It’s a neurotype that results in many of the most beautiful and creative brains to have existed. Autists need systemic support to thrive in a world built for allistics, not the blame and shame that make our lives harder than they need to be.
