Hmmmm. I'll ask my SG friends what they think and get some opinions. Shouldn't hurt either way, but I'll see!

I could get the bare ones done too. They're called 'raws' in pin collector slang. Do you think they would be popular too?

The remade sample of my chevron is coming (bottom one). Fingers crossed that the finish is the exact same as my old ones. There's a lineup of people waiting for these little guys to go back in stock!

Two Stargate chevrons, the bottom one just metal and 'empty', the top one filled with sparkly glittery blue colour. The top one also has an odd sheen to it.

At my work, when things get unpacked there always be tons of quality packing supplies coming out. The best part though, is that the engineers doing the unpacking will put effort into saving foam sheets for me to reuse for pin orders. :] You guys are the best and you know it.

Lesson learned besides going crazy on your backups: Don't touch OD with a hundred foot pole.

everything I had, decoupled OD altogether, and deleted the OD files. Well. I have no idea if OD decided to sneakily start deleting files beforehand because 90% of my commission files vanished. :D Thankfully I had another, separate backup going back to 2016 but what the fresh hell was this exactly

I had OneDrive connected to my computer and didn't realize it was backing up *every file I had* until I got an email a year later saying I'm 1666% over my OD storage limit and they'll start deleting my files if I don't buy more storage (nice, cool) I unsynced OD, backed up what I thought was-

You'll never be like him, and that's just something you'll have to come to terms with. My apologies.

Did you know the Ancient Greeks knew that the Earth was round? Eratosthenes (b. 276 BCE) calculated the equatorial circumference of the earth as follows: Er: 40,338 km Actual: 40,075.017 km Eratosthenes was 99.348% accurate.

I'll tell my kids this is Strahd

Lord Darigan, an anthropomorphised purple bat creature (specifically a Neopets korbat) with a thick, layered purple mane, a skeletal jaw, and a skeletal three fingered hand above which floats a golden orb.

John are you telling me that UEFA said they'd make their own world cup with blackjack and hookers, and Infantino didnt think they'd do it until his 'Peace Prize' buddy's own country said 'Im down for football, blackjack, and hookers'm

It's funny, what you're describing almost reminds me of how the Warp in 40k is based on symbolism and metaphor more so than anything rooted in reality and physics, and that's how sorcerers are able to pull their magic. I like it a lot!

Out of curiosity what were you going for in the class? And this is for 5e formatting?

8 hours after going live and already 40% of the way there. Absolutely fabulous. :D

I hate that too, only marginally less 8')

I have no qualms wishing only the worst on these kinds of people if they are adults masquerading as kids.

Well this is a new and uncomfortable one. I just got a call from a call centre, it sounded like a literal child of 10 or 11 on the other end, asking if I can transfer $100 dollars to them. Is this child trafficking??

It's unique in that the reasons for their destruction are economic rather than (purely) sociopolitical. These companies don't want competitors to benefit from the data they're harvesting. It's like staking out a plot of land in a gold mine.

✨ Valduin ✨ @dragonstormstudios.ca · 29/07/2026

The intention behind the books' destruction is so that competitors won't be able to use the rich harvest of pre-AI-adulterated text. That is worth its weight in gold to these companies.
