#something is very obviously different about these two compared to my normal images on this blog. i acknowledge this #also the sv model is Really good. and since they always stare straight at the camera anyway… and no one pays attention to the background… #and the only high-quality phantump model i could find was so horribly shiny that its eyes were just white voids #in my defense‚ phantump always just stare straight at you in game #the lighting is different‚ yeah. that's probably the dead giveaway. beyond the background. but like. i'm the only being on the planet who #really likes phantump anyway. i feel like it's a generally forgettable pokémon to most folks #phantump #HELLO this one is a weird one. i have some explaining to do. so when i did this one i didn't know how to edit models really at all #and when i got the models for these‚ the xy models were super shiny. shiny to the point that it made their eyes fuckin invisible #and i decided that since you could barely tell it was phantump‚ i needed a different way to get these images #i remembered that in the SV dlc‚ every time you find a wild phantump‚ it just fucking. stares. at you. and i was like. aha #i kinda remembered because of the test stream that i did. tumblr user alligayytorr (am i getting the right amount of Ys) said #“haha i am getting a sneak peek” when i zoomed the camera in on a phantump. and i remembered that. and i was like. i can utilize this #and ended up using just an in-game screenshot of SV in replacement of the regular content. later on‚ after that #once we got into gen 7 and it became less and less reliable to find models‚ i had to learn how to edit them manually to remove the shine #i am a software dev. not a 3d modeler. this ended up coming down to editing the code of the models directly (which i ended up writing a #script to automate). now‚ today‚ january 22nd (the day of me writing these tags and updating this post)‚ i remembered this post was in the #queue and was not normal. so i went back‚ ran the script on the phantump and trevenant models‚ and unshinified them #then edited these two posts to be normal. i have left the original pictures i took under the cut for reference and as bonuses #because i really enjoy phantump. so that's why those images are there‚ and that's why these tags are here #just for posterity's sake‚ the folks who come here mostly for my commentary‚ i've left the ORIGINAL tags of the post when i initially #made it with the SV pictures up at the top (i wanted to rearrange them‚ but tumblr makes that Very difficult‚ so i left them as-is) #so if these tags are confusing to read i Apologize. but i hope now that you're at the bottom you understand what happened #i'm gonna go edit the trevenant post now

disturbing

I was writing a post and at the end I was adding tags, as I do, and I typed the singular first person pronoun, I, and a list of tags popped up as suggestions that took me the fuck out. It was so disturbing I took a screenshot.

[image ID: a list of suggested tags, screenshotted. It's titled "popular" and the list is "I want to [star emoji]ve" "i wanna lose weight" "i sell content" "i love him"]

I wanna star-emoji-ve???? Well there's some pro-ana shit for you.

I don't know if the kids these days remember this but back in Livejournal around the era of strikethrough (the '07-'09 time period is where I remember noticing it) there was a movement to censor pro-self-harm blogs, that were support groups mostly supporting one another in more and more extreme anorexic/self-destructive/eating-disordered behaviors.

This is absolutely that. And they were like "it's self-expression" and everyone else in the world was like "it is actually a toxic encouragement of self-harm" because they were like, concretely instructing one another and recruiting vulnerable people to join them in ways to literally starve to death, they were support groups for killing yourself more or less, and so those tags would occasionally get banned or delisted or removed from search or whatever, but remember this was very early in the history of such things, and there was no algorithm. But people did use the browsing of blogs' "interests" to find one another, it was a feature of how Livejournal worked, and there wasn't a lot of moderation but the deactivation or delisting of those self-harm-encouraging tags were a hotly-contested bit of debate.

And so they got more creative, and found other ways to find one another, and people starved to death or otherwise irreparably damaged their bodies and their mental health and so on. I cannot emphasize enough, this was not fiction. These were not fictional stories depicting fictional scenarios that weren't happening, these were real people posting stories and encouragement and photographs of their real selves, showing off how much damage to themselves they were doing, concretely encouraging one another to do the same. This was not fiction.

But they kept finding new ways to talk about it so it couldn't be censored.

And then LJ deleted blogs for posting about fiction instead, and we all kind of forgot about it and moved on.

Highly displeased to find that it's all alive and well on Tumblr, to the point that it's the number one suggestion when I type the fucking first-person pronoun into the tag field, and I can't opt out of seeing that. COOL.

#someone told me to report this to tumblr #but i don't know how #so i'm posting about it instead #it's not like a blog i can link to #it's their fucking automated suggestions i can't opt out of #if i type it now it doesn't come up #because i have no idea what criteria they use for this #it's clearly contextual in some way #what are they analyzing idk #what about my blog led their shitty algo to decide i'm into that #idk but it's upsetting as fuck #and here we are worrying about fictional depictions of shit omg

[toss-a-coin-to-your-stan-account]

the fact that the top post in the witcher tag is still the fucking clickbait article screenshot posted by a racist xenophobic homo/transphobe that says "ummmm lauren was actually ANNOYED about henry's enthusiasm on set" makes me want to bash my goddamn head into a wall

#no bc you guys took an actual far right fuckface & and a clickbait screenshot and got it to the top of the tag and i'll never forgive that #the witcher #witcher #mine #literally three scrolls down his blog is a post saying 'my right to own fully automated machine guns > your feelings' #and a post getting mad about stardew valley adding fucking gender-neutral pronouns #like. as someone who is critical myself of some of the choices TWN made y'all HAVE to think about who you're reblogging from #and whether it's someone with legitimate criticism or some bigoted asshole who's mad that a woman wrote it/they made the sorceresses WOC #tw racism #tw homophobia #tw transphobes #tw xenophobia

The Big Weekend - Part 1

Part 1 of my 'big weekend' of project development has gone really well so far. Lots of new things added, and progress has been made on my big list of new-things-to-add.

Let's first show everything in a brief video overview:

Whoa! Environments!

I did end up doing some extra work outside of my intended weekend scope, mostly because I wanted a brief distraction from coding. To that end I finally added the first parts of my 'asteroid' environment that your factory is placed in. This will be improved over time, I'm sure, but now serves to make the factory feel a lot more grounded in the very place you're supposed to be!

I also re-added the factory walls, which are now correctly done programmatically - rather than being hand-placed. These scale up with the size of the factory floor, so they're more or less 'done'.

Packager

You can now drop the packager into your factory, which is a necessary first step to exporting your goods from the facility.

Routing items through here will parcel them up ready for transport. You just have to snake them off to your Exporter machine.

Ready for packaging!

Exporter

This machine must be placed over one of the new export nodes. This restricts the number of exporters you can use in any given factory (like the import nodes), and you'll likely have to merge a number of packager belts together to bundle up lots of orders in later stages.

The exporter has space for up to 6 stacks of up to 99 items. A lack of space will result in packages backing up on the import belt, so make sure you don't fill it up with junk!

The build ghost of the exporter next to one of the new Export nodes. These are limited, so you'll have to design your factory around them!

What's next?

Here's my big list of things-to-do, with my completed updates marked off:

Main objectives view

Packager machine

Exporter machine

Research tree

Technology upgrades

Money / credits system

Structure descriptions (QoL)

Audio refinements (QoL)

Main menu screens

New pipes subsytem

Not bad progress so far! I'm not sure what I'm going to tackle tomorrow, though I have a sneaking suspicion I'll want to do the research and tech trees, since they are the next 'big' things to nail down. It will also force me to finally implement a system to prevent access to building items that you haven't yet unlocked, which is a crucial part of progression.

Anyway, that's all I have for this evening. If you reached this point, thank you kindly for your time! And with any luck I'll see you again tomorrow for another progress update.

Have a great evening, wherever you are, and I'll see you again soon! 😊

hey uh quick warning for mashblr people, if you search "mashpoll" there are a number of posts about a death in cape town from a few years ago that include photos of a dead man. not graphic but still very startling

if you'd like to preemptively block the blogs, they're torixus, updatecrib, report47, and clementbenjamin313

#text post #mash #mashblr #this isn't a callout obviously they're just reposting news articles #pretty sure the blogs themselves are automated #but i imagine a lot of people would rather not see photos of dead people when they're looking for fandom posts!

[spockvarietyhour]

The alien-ness of the Universe Nakai in Space reminded me of Enterprise's Vertian/Shroomies in "Silent Enemy". They don't look much like each other but they are weird and alien-y and demand our surrender in different ways, in our own voice.

#Thank you memory alpha for Shroomies and for reminding me the novels had Vertians. #(I like what the novels did with them. as well as the automated space stations) #The Nakai comes from Malozzi's blog apparently as they wre not named on screen) #Star Trek Enterprise #Enterprise #Silent Enemy #Stargate Universe #SGU #Space #Space (episode) #1.11 #It's not a Stargate Rewatch Rewatch

“ariana is white again” i wish you people were funny

#automated block on all my blogs too 💋 #i don’t play about her y’all must be new

[blueskittlesart]

hey, your account was falsely terminated a while ago and you were able to get it back, right? how did you do that? asking for a friend

Yeah idk how similar my situation might be to yours because I was terminated over inactive sideblogs but my account access wasn't revoked entirely. I still had access to my sideblogs, so what I did was delete all the inactive ones and then start posting on one of my once-active sideblogs about how I had been terminated. I also posted on twitter and instagram and tagged tumblr on those platforms explaining that this blog was a good half of my income and terminating me had left me unable to conduct business with people who had been promised products from me. That, along with several emails (and supposedly some support tickets from other users about me, though I was never able to confirm those lol) got me reinstated within about 12 hours, but I've been told that's a really unlikely scenario lol. best of luck to you dealing with tumblr support over account termination is a fucking nightmare

#I also couldn't comment or send asks which was REALLY annoying because it left me unable to contact the support blog directly so i had to #rely on emails. which. god their automated email system sucks hot shit #it seems you can still send asks so you might actually be in a better position than i was #best of luck to you soldier #asks

[pinkeoni]

Well that was very strange but thankfully very brief. Nothing seems to be lost, all of my inbox messages and drafts are still in tact 😮‍💨 thank you everyone who sent me kind messages and who expressed concern. I think I might keep the new backup @robinkeoni just for funsies and in case something like this happens again lol

#tumblr support said i was flagged by an automated security system?????? man for what?????? #also so grateful the blog is back like if i lost everything i would have kms /j #termination posting #oh yeah also if you weren't here for this my blog was briefly terminated today

[samepicofdavidwong]

#john dies at the end #david wong #i think i successfully automated this blog #which i could’ve done years ago but the stress of realizing the queue was running low and rushing to refill it #kept me alive. #however im a different man now. a lazier man. enjoy your bratwurst everybody

Love Firefox, but have to use Chrome for automation projects. The dev tools just feel better to use. Maybe it’s because I’m not used to Firefox dev tools but oh lord it feels really clunky to me.

#ooc #I don't know why I got flagged but I doubt I would get a real answer if I asked (again) #I've had another blog terminated after editing some of its pages #on the bright side that blog and the other blog I mentioned before have been restored #support responded with an automated message for both stating that it was 'a glitch on our end' #but I'm a bit hesitant to fuck around with my other blogs again #if this blog or any of my other ones get deleted soon. that wasn't me lmao #sorry. I love bitching
