  • And for anyone curious the source of the gif is from the video linked below by the creator JoCat.

    A non-gender conforming YouTuber who makes some great content.

  • And don't forget to use encrypted messenging apps like Signal.

    And do your research into which apps, programs, etc have the best encryption.

  • Yep it's the association for sure

    But also a factor (for those that know) is that companies will pay for their ads to run to specific demographics of people based on the data that a advertising platform (Twitter, YouTube, Tinder, Facebook, etc) has gathered to determine specific things about you as a person.

    It's the whole concept behind targeted ads. You pay for eyes that will see it and are more likely to purchase your products due to that demographic data. Or at the very least, view your website for traffic that can be used to harvest more data about you so that it can be sold to other companies.

    What it was like checking Facebook after my relatives found out I was queer

    If it wasn't clear I'm the tank in this gif, they're the ones throwing stuff.

    I say relatives because family doesn't treat you like they treated me, like shit.

    They earned their blocks and I hope they someday can find peace.

    Always keep in mind folks, family is the relationship not blood. You can't change your relatives, but who you consider family is purely up to you.

    Never be afraid to cut toxic/shitty people out of your life.

  • Of course they are, the pieces are super manly in the men's games. Made of concrete for extra ruggedness and painted manly colors, nothing bright or cheerful as far as the eye could see. And the chairs they sit in are also super manly no comfort at all. All played on a manly tactical chessboard. /S

    Seriously though this whole decision just screams "cruelty is the point" and no concept of equality.

  • As someone who grew up in rural Washington on the threshold of populated Washington, yeah shit gets pretty fucked really quick in those rural areas.

    It was a really religious area as well so that really didn't help. The local religious people have a strong belief in having as many children as possible as soon as possible. The running non-joke (because it's common) about it is the first kid to turn 16 drives the 3rd van.

  • I had no idea that this was a hurdle that they'd have to jump over

    It seems stupid to me that this wasn't the case already

    This really needs to pass

  • If I did a push up every time I thought about how I should be working out I'd be ripped.

    I should really work out.

  • I'll have to check the stream out later but thank you for the heads-up

    Vaush is pretty based even though he can come off pretty rough

  • It would take quite a bit of energy to effect things on a global scale but it could cause some issues at a very local level.

  • Wait really?

    Damn that really sucks

  • Depending on price I might go for it

    I did spend like $40 on a battery for a 10 year old laptop a few years ago so that I could keep using it for troubleshooting a remote network I setup up awhile ago because it's cheaper than a new laptop.

    Personally I'd see if you can find a new compatible battery not necessarily an OEM battery though as being new it's probably going to last awhile.

  • Thank you

    I'm having to answer from one of my alts because my main isn't showing the comments for some reason.

    Priming is really important for painting minis both 3d printed and off the shelf ones. It helps the paints you use to stick and spread properly.

    For the skeletons I used Rust-Oleum primer (both black and grey), Apple Barrel white for highlights before the main paint job, Army Painter Speed paints for the most of it, and Vallejo paints for the weapons. Everything but the primers were acrylic paints.

    The priming does a lot of heavy lifting for getting the details properly highlighted. Basically using the black primer for full coverage in every crevice, the grey primer from just the top at a few angles to leave the crevices and under parts dark, and then lightly dry brushing some white paint to highlight the high points and details. Afterwards using some thinned down paint so that the previous work is seen through makes it all pop.

    For some prints sanding can be pretty helpful for removing print artifacts and using small files instead of sand paper is basically the only way for minis. These guys I didn't sand because I felt some of the artifacts added character.

  • I'm curious about their efficiency drop off if that's what happens after 25 days.

  • Ah yes, some good news today as well

    Happy to see this community is starting off on the right foot

  • There aren't any flairs yet

  • I've been using Firefox since the days of Windows XP, I ain't gonna stop now.

  • Honestly to me it seems like the harder these massive Web 2.0 corps push for Web3 and trashing their services for an ever increasing profit margin the more I think that a Web 3.0 won't be Blockchain, but I think it will be something decentralized.

    The web is increasingly experienced exclusively through social media and with the building of more decentralized services (and the gaining traction) the more I think a decentralized social media future may be unfolding.

    I'm for it, I support FOSS for sure.
