I don't even know if this is to protect their profits. Not Hollywood, but in gaming Baldur's Gate 3 is the most aggressively gay and inclusive game I have ever played (compliment) and it was a near universal hit. "Go woke, go broke" simply doesn't work out. This feels far more like people with specific interests are directing what content is being produced than them reacting to market demands.

I didn't have to use the dress model last session, but we are playing tomorrow and planning on wrapping up this area so how it is now is officially done! I thought I'd give you an update since you were kind enough to chime in! I did end up moving away from the pink after all which I think was for the best.

Thank you for putting so much work into this inclusive and wonderful community! 💗

Borderlands 3 felt like getting mugged by Randy Pitchford for 20 hours. I'm not a real fan.

Decentralized app plotting a total takeover of the social internet? Are these tryouts for the mental gymnastics invitational?

He's got bigger fish to fry. Like cyclists and his war on bike lanes.

Well you don't want to ruin someone's life over one mistake do you? Just a little oopsie! I'm sure they feel really bad about it.

I'm certain that's not what that means. It only means that if Anthropic or Google wants to train an AI model THEY can steal any content they want.

Thank you for the link! I'll give the gold outlines a try. I had tried gold with a blue variation of the dress but didn't think of putting it on pink!

 

Our D&D campaign is wrapping up after 2 years or so and my character who is a 2 1/2 foot tall Faerie is going to be given some award for service at Queen Titania's court. She needs a dress! I've been using a vtubing set up to play in character for the last 6 months or so and I would love some feedback about what works and what doesn't with this dress. It's very basic at the moment, I have not done any texture work really, it's just a flat colour with a black border. There's no notions or decorations or anything. And I need the model ready for Tuesday so I can't do anything SUPER crazy, but I could spend a couple of days adding some stuff. I'd like to add something to wrap around the shoulders and arms and I have an idea for that, think like a boa but instead of fuzzy it would be a lacy bit of fabric that would drape around and reach the floor after falling off each wrist.

Does the colour work? Should I use a different colour for the accent other than black? Help!

There would be a mix of profound excitement, and profound disappointment.

I really don't want anyone to be using "Make X great again" as a slogan for anything.

Currently I have a 40 inch LG that I bought so long ago that I don't even remember, but with where I sit to view it reading text it a little difficult for me. Playing games on it is more or less a no go. I'd also like to upgrade to hdr and enjoy some 4k movies on a display that will let them shine. Accurate colours are something that is more important to me than not. My budget would be CAD $1000-$2000. I sit about 3m away from where the tv would be mounted and I don't have the best eyesight so leaning on the larger side would be better?

I find looking up recommendations on youtube to be pretty difficult. There are a lot of channels that talk about them but they end up only really recommending stuff out of my price range or they conflict with what other people had said about those tvs. Some people recommend the more budget oriented options, others say to stay away like the plague!

Edit: One hard requirement is that it must be usable if it's not connected to any network. The television will NEVER connect to the internet. If I need to connect it to get past a nag screen that is a deal breaker. For all intents and purposes, it will be a dumb tv. As dumb as I can make it. As dumb as they come.

 

I'm looking to be able to store assets that I've created and purchased (both 3d models and images, potentially audio in the future) on my nas and would love to be able to use something to browse them and filter or sort them based on what kind of usage license I have for them. So if I'm doing a commission I can filter out the "personal use only" assets available. As the primary use is for visual arts assets, large preview images would be perfect. Teeny tiny icons not nearly as useful when browsing through image elements to find something you like.

I'm really looking for a self hosted option, ideally one with a docker container available but I could also spin up a virtual machine to host it if required.

Does anyone know of something that would fit the bill?

I'm wondering if anyone here knows how to add the summoner archetype to a character AFTER you've unlocked it. I have already gone through that ordeal and can select the summoner as a new character. But I'd like to add the summoner to a new gunslinger and don't know if the grimoire might be available in the ward. I hope it is! But I suspect it is not.

Edit: As luck would have it, and it is fantastically lucky, I ended up getting a bloodmoon immediately after posting this question. In case you are wondering about how to unlock it, here's what I know

spoilerYou can look up guides on how to unlock the class and that's easy enough. You need to craft an item at an altar, and it is going to cost you blood moon essence which you can farm from wisps that spawn during a blood moon. What you don't find online is how to actually spawn the blood moon. I do not have good news here. It seems random and extremely rare. I have tried killing the doe as suggested. No bloodmoon. Travelling back and forth between the ward and yeasha, no bloodmoon. Just walking through doors. No bloodmoon. I did this for hours. SO. It seems like getting the bloodmoon is rare and just pure luck until someone can figure out the mechanics of it.

BUT if you do get a bloodmoon harvest the wisps as fast as you can, and then go through a doorway into a dungeon. Not the crystal, you don't want to reset the monsters. Just go through a yellow loading door and back and the wisps will respawn. Farm up as many as you can. You need 15 for the class and then there's an armour set if you want to go for it. I don't remember how much all that is because I've never managed to farm up enough wisps lol. For this character I just happened into a bloodmoon and there weren't many wisps spawned in. I only saw three, so I just kept moving into the dungeon and back to respawn those three wisps until the bloodmoon was over.

Anyway, I found a lot of guessing online, most of it wrong, about this so at least I can provide some experience. Good luck and good hunting!
