Thank you. I don't want to treat it as something that I have to spend hours practising instead of just drawing for enjoyment - before I purchased my tablet I was drawing on paper and a friend linked me a website with drawing exercises that quickly sucked the fun out of it. I do intend to do some, although I'd rather learn by trying to emulate artists I like, and there are plenty of those.

For this picture I was just following some guides I found on Pixiv, although I do like his art style.

Getting used to the tablet is another factor and I've already damaged my pen nib while trying to draw clouds

I'm using my tablet that sat for too long as well; still can't get into a regular habit of daily usage yet. I find that if I stop for any reason it's so hard to get back into the rythm. Been working on Pippa in my own style off and on for two weeks now.
I had a face I liked more and all her hair decorations done but somehow I hit something I don't quite understand that deleted or covered my page and I accidentally closed it without saving which was a huge demotivator.
Lets goooo self improvement!

File:[SubsPlease] NegaPosi Angl….jpg (420.45 KB,1920x1080)

I'm not quite sure what to think of Negaposi Angler. I don't hate it by any means, but I feel like it should be better. It's an original and it has nice faces, but it's strange in what it's trying to do. It lacks the emotional impact that it should have for what's going on, although episode 3 was pretty good in this regard. I was hoping everything would be like episode 1 and 3. As mentioned in the first minute of the show, the guy is dying and has less than two years to live, but it's only been brought up a couple times in passing. It's just bizarre how it devotes so much time to silliness or learning about fishing. There will be a glimpse of an emotional moment which will end abruptly to make room for more fishing info.
The potential was there to make this into a deep and emotional show dealing with death, social growth after self-isolation and finding purpose, but it requires time that it's instead choosing to devote to explaining fishing techniques. Well, there's still 5 episodes left so it could maybe pivot back to it, but I'm not counting on it.

Doing that gives the shell plenty of time to stick itself to the egg. To avoid cracking while boiling and eggshell peeling hell you need to put room temperature eggs straight into boiling water, continue boiling them for 5- 8 minutes and then cool them off in cold/ice water.

Argh. The spaghetti sauce I used to love seems to have changed its recipe. It's now so plain, like it's just tomato sauce with a tiny bit of flavor from what must be a greatly reduced amount of basil and garlic and the other stuff.
The only reason I occasionally visit a ridiculously expensive hipster grocery store with absurd prices was for this sauce and now it sucks. It's one of those places where you take the expected price of something and increase it by 30-100%, so I don't think I'll be heading back there again.

A girl looking at you this way means she pays enough attention to you to let her emotions show rather than just ignoring you as you would a stranger. There's a particular scene in the Cinderella Girls anime where Rin gives the Producer an angry look that makes my heart lurch for the same reason. I don't find it erotic, but I don't know the right way to describe it. It just gives me a nice feeling.

At some point there will be a convergence of several key technologies and VR will never be the same.
I think AI assistants will soon be possible with text generation, not true AI, but an illusion. The real issue is creating the illusion of emotion and spontaneity that a real sentient being would have. And of course general memory, and price of hardware.
There are many paths to take. Truly I say to you, the field is wide open.
If the vtuber fans are smart they will be backing up and hoarding every single millisecond of video and audio and every twitter post and every comment, every single datapoint. Forget cryo, computers will be the new resurrection, as long as you have the data. And the more data you have the more precise and "real". The NSA is in an envious position because they can spy on anyone willy nilly.
For myself I think it’s too late. I would rather explore the limitless mind and be free of playing by this world’s rules, where there is no sadness and unhappiness. Where you can see things from the past in the present as they used to be. We already do it unconsciously when we dream at night it’s only a matter of regaining control.

US Doujin Site Seized by Feds Anonymous 10/18/24 (Fri) 18:52:11 No.134285 [Reply]

DEFCON 3 : US-based doujin site, pururin.to, was seized by the Feds. This is a fairly significant event. The obscenity laws surrounding drawings have largely been unenforced at the Federal level.

The banner itself claims that this was done on the grounds of 18 U.S.C. §§ 1466A and 1467; per the banner itself, "It is unlawful to produce, distribute, receive, or possess an obscene visual depiction of any kind, including a drawing, cartoon, sculpture, or painting, that depicts a minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct. Individuals who do so can face significant criminal and civil penalties, including imprisonment, fines, and forfeiture of property."

But... The banner also shows the seal of the Intellectual Property Rights Center, which is suggestive of this being brought by foreign rights holders claiming copyright infringement, but then pururin being seized and prosecuted under obscenity law. Sites being seized for obscenity are typically done by the FBI, whose seal is conspicuously missing in this case.

When Kana isn't on screen the other characters should say "Hey, where's Kana?"

I don't know much about the subject but it seems that the microbes in different people's gut reacts differently to different food. So it's not a matter of people who eat sh*t having sh*t brains.

Having said that, they probably do but not for that reason. Correlation does not mean causation. Lower socio-economic background 'people' eat bad food but they also treat themselves terribly in general so there is a lot that could contribute to it.

The people playing Factorio and Dragon Ball Daima reminded me that I've been sitting on Dragon Quest Builders 2 for a while now, so now is the perfect time to play. It's like Minecraft or Terraria, although I never really liked Minecraft.
I really like how there's a few different worlds and there's a goal and set of buildings to go along with it. In this first world it's a poison swamp and the goal is to create fields and establish a farm. There's a "blueprint" system where you need to place certain objects at certain spots to build larger things and I thought that was a really cool system in the first one.
Nice, relaxing game with the typical Dragon Quest charm.

However, with so much information out there it's impossible for a normal human to sort through, and as such many rely on small feeds to get their information that motivates them most emotionally. This stewing of outrage culture seems like it's lead to perpetuating and even stoking more violence and hatred.

On the other hand, the vast sea of information has also given opportunity for those in research to collaborate and build off each others work at lightning speed, and even help to raise new generations on material that teaches them well. Not to mention the entirety of github. In my own personal experience I feel as though I've learned to connect better with others through my use of the internet.

And then Google and Meta follow the lead of piracy sites and move all their servers to eastern Europe while the west builds its own great firewall. Sounds like fun.

I still hate the EU for ruining nearly every website with their dumb cookies popups.
Russia never did anything like that to the internet.

Websites ruin themselves with their dumb cookies

Anon is right, it made the web worse.
Now they secretly track us anyways while pretending not to, but we also have to deal with annoying popups.

>>135113
The worst part is 90% of them aren't even compliant and still break the law they're pretending to follow. You are required to make an incredibly easy to click reject all without having to open any extra menus or click anything extra and the agree button should not use dark patterns to make you think it's the reject button. Regardless, pretty much all websites force you to go through an annoying process so you're more likely to just press click agree to not get incredibly frustrated by a slow declining process. This is knowingly not following the EU regulations on how the banner is required to be and they may as well just not do it at all.

I'm not terribly bothered by it, I have never ever found a worthwhile website behind a dark pattern banner. So if I see one at this point I just don't use the website.

Since switching from IT to Dev Manager, I’ve realized the insane amount of bureaucratic processes we have to follow (this is just related to dev performance, I have hundreds of other processes I have to follow daily).

- Monthly self-eval: Devs must submit a detailed monthly self-evaluation
- Manager evaluation: Dev’s manager evaluates them monthly too.
- Weekly team evaluation: Dev's direct manager evaluates the "team" as a single unit every week.
- Quarterly upper management review: The direct manager’s manager steps in every quarter to assess the team as well.
- Each dev's “buddy” (more senior dev they're partnered with) performs a monthly evaluation of their performance too
- TL assesses sprint quality after each sprint.
- TL's manager reviews sprint quality too (non-technical manager)

Now, management expects me to sift through all this data weekly toghether with Jira to identify any "underperformers". They don’t see the redundancy—they just want more.
When I pointed out that the sheer volume of surveys and performance checks is beyond redundant, my manager brushed it off, accusing me of trying to "work less."
In his eyes, productivity means creating more processes. Only colleagues who add extra layers of bureaucracy get rewarded, never those who streamline.
Am I being a baby?
Feeling disillusioned... Is this really what management is supposed to be?
Because if so, I’m tempted to just go wild creating even more pointless processes—like they seem to want—and drown everyone in surveys and meaningless reports.

OP here.
You reminded me I also get reviewed:
- Every quarter: by the client, my manager, my peers, PMO, people from other areas (finance, IT, account managers, etc) and also by the devs that report to me.
(Also every week I'm audited by PMO for process compliance)

What a wonderful world!!!!

That sounds like some strait up East German or Elan School petty control.

The few times I was ever given a self review I always would put just the maximum score for everything, because it was time wasting and they were going to knock me down a peg and tell me what they want me to do anyways.

That's what I always do because I know for a fact that salary reviews are directly linked to these scores. I also know for sure that my manager never gives me full marks, no matter what because "nobody is perfect"
