First: Twitter has permanently suspended Trump's primary account "due to the risk of further incitement of violence." https://twitter.com/TwitterSafety/status/1347684877634838528
Second: Apple gave Parler (AKA: Meinspace, Fashbook) an ultimatum: Implement a full moderation plan within 24 hours or get banned from the Apple app store. https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/ryanmac/apple-threatens-ban-parler
Yeah, this could've happened sooner, but like... Let's just take the win on these, folks.
@Patashu This is very good, well specified... and possibly replicable in current game engines. Hmmmmm.

I've had an idea for a variant tf ring in my head for a while, and wanted to draw up a design sheet for it like I did for the original rings. Got a lot wordier than I expected (thanks, twitch chat), but I'm happy with the result!

@Felthry (Which, if that proves unwieldy, poke me and I can set that up.)
@Felthry I don't think so, but if you have Calibre, you should be able to build one from the continuous post at the bottom of the page.
@Felthry I've been greatly enjoying https://figmentforms.tumblr.com/post/139806271367/a-tale-of-two-rulers-archive-post/, in which a unified Ganon and Zelda try to figure out how to work with the rest of the extended cast (and occasionally not murder each other).
I do hope we eventually get as deeply researched and interesting a thing as a game, eventually.
Heads up.
Tapestries (probably through its forum) was breached for emails *and passwords.* If you use you Tapestries password anywhere else, change it everywhere, *NOW*.
Source: the recent "Cit0day" leak, a leak from a black-market repository of stolen emails and passwords. See https://www.troyhunt.com/inside-the-cit0day-breach-collection/ for a primer. The Tapestries domain is in the table of contents.
Boost for visibility please.
psa, Logitech gaming software
Just a heads up for folks on Windows that Logitech Gaming Software (necessary for some older USB peripherals, sometimes bundled in prebuilt PCs) corrupts memory in kernelspace and can lead to frequent, difficult to diagnose crashes.
I was up to about one BSOD every 6-12 hours, and finally figured out how to reproduce the crash in driver verifier and WinDbg. Best part is the crash was in their device enumerator instead of any of the useful parts of their software.
@keliff Both are easy recommends when they're on sale at 50-80% off.
They have different built-in sets and a different flow than Beat Saber (metal/house and edm/electro-swing), but both support custom songs as well.
@keliff Pistols or punching.
Fortunately, Pistol Whip and Synth Riders exist for these modes of play.
pmd, romhacking
A romhacking toolkit for Explorers of Sky just hit 1.0, and it is really hecking good: https://skytemple.org/
I hacked on it for a few hours this evening (adding Fennekin to the game) and found it very easy to use. Kind of excited to see the fan games that come out of this.
we just have to share this really, really good SCP.
