[dayquil-driver]

Genuinely how on earth do you get better at guilty gear and break that initial fighting game learning curve hurdle? I've been stuck at bronze 1 with Giovanni ever since I got the game back December last year.

pick a simple character, get someone who's good and able to offer constructive feedback, and play somewhat consistently while they coach you. i've been playing strive since it launched but i honestly don't think i really got "good" at the game until i picked up Unika late last year, who's kind of an all-rounder without too many gimmicks. before that I was playing characters who are more specialized or have weirdo shit going on and i don't think it was helping me. gotta learn those fundies. i feel like Giovanna is... on the simple side but she's still a rushdown which tend to have a pretty high technical skill requirement to do good with them. so idk. get a friend, see what they think of how you're playing.

let’s talk about how they made it impossible to function without a phone and digitalised everything and then turned around and went “actually! these phone things aren’t safe for kids but it’s magically ok once you’re eighteen. guess you’ll have to have your life dictated by your parents now lol cause we’re gonna take the devices away from you. IT’S FOR YOUR OWN GOOD WHY ARE YOU COMPLAINING”

[do-not-u-dare]

ok my apologies. take away my ability to buy anything too ig because these fuckass stores don’t accept cash anymore. take away my ability to communicate with people outside my house and school because I can’t text and I can’t email and I cant drive to them either and I can’t even fucking get public transport without a phone either. can’t order at a fucking restaurant without being asked to get a membership and install an app and also very sorry but you can only order through our online menu now! have you ever considered that it’s not just about instagram?

Hey. If people aren't aware, Microsoft admitted they know who you and where you are at all times and will give your info to the police.

They have a Global Device Identifier (GDID) Tracker that functions as a fingerprint for your PC that can surpass VPNs, proxy servers and countries. Although it can't survive a clean reinstall of Windows (it can survive updates), because Microsoft forces you to go to the internet and log in into a Microsoft account, they will be able to get to you.

Microsoft kept it secret and it was only found out when the FBI tracked a hacker thanks to the information Microsoft gave them.

You should be paying attention to this, and possibly consider moving away from Windows. If a government, especially the US government, doesn't like you for some reason, this could be seriously concerning.

This article specifically notes:

For journalism, activism, or domestic abuse situations, skip Windows and use Linux routed through Tor instead of a commercial VPN. A GDID doesn’t care which VPN you use, only that it’s still the same Windows installation.

Microsoft admits Windows 11 has a GDID tracker with no off switch, first documented publicly in an FBI hacker complaint

GDID is the persistent Windows ID that helped FBI trace a Scattered Spider hacker despite VPNs. Here's how it works and how to limit it.

Other important quotes:

What has researchers uneasy is everything else the case reveals. Costin Raiu, a well-known malware researcher, asked on the Three Buddy Problem podcast how much of this exists on other platforms, and whether it is linked more permanently to hardware. Matthew Hickey, another security researcher, called Windows “surveillance software”.

Two things back that up:

There’s no consent screen. A GDID gets assigned when you sign into a Microsoft Account. Apple’s advertising identifier needs an App Tracking Transparency prompt and a visible reset; Android’s works the same way. GDID has neither, and a Windows reinstall only gets you a new number Microsoft can still get back to the same account.

Then there’s activation. Massgrave, the group behind Microsoft Activation Scripts, notes that Windows setup sends hardware info to Microsoft and gets identifiers back, the same tokens later used for Store access and licensing: “It’s impossible to prevent Windows from getting a GDID without breaking activation and UWP app[s].” Anyone who lost a license after swapping a motherboard has already met a smaller version of this.

Ive not seen anyone else post about this but

JK Rowling deadnamed and posted 'upskirt' photo of trans woman on X

The wealthy author escalated a social media spat that resulted in posting a photo from a 2023 event at the Institute of Economic Affairs in

" Rowling, deadnaming Freda in all of the posts about her, said, "[Deadname] chose the fishnets and miniskirt. [Deadname] boasted on stage about what he does with his female penis. You may feel squeamish about this picture, but [deadname] is a paraphilic exhibitionist who was having the time of his life." "

She's the predator she warns you about

[sanguine-humor]

phm is decently popular in japan and i mostly see this when i check twitter and see accounts posting pictures of handmade rocky plushies that are so fucking round looking it brings a tear to my eye

[sanguine-humor]

he keeps me sane

[sanguine-humor]

btw, idk if this will be seen by any of the countless people who already have seen and reblogged this post, but heres the original guide posted on how to make the chibi-rocky! the OP also has a separate guide for a more accurate rocky, though obviously less simple of a guide than the little thingy shown off

(im surprised this post gained any attention, haha, if i had known i would have just shared the guides, the more handmade pebbles in the world the better)

if you are a tme queer person holding an event, especially a dyke/sapphic one, you need to go out of your way to make sure that the trans women in your community know they are welcome. most of the girls i know assume we’re not.

[jingerpi]

and we're not crazy for assuming that!!! most places aren't accepting of us, so even if you are, we wont know that until you prove it.

and if you wanna be an ally you've gotta extend this to every marginalization. make sure disabled people feel welcomed. make sure Black people feel welcomed, and so on and so on !!

It seems some of the Old Knowledge has disappeared from warframe players, so let me tell you a little secret:

Scanning the codex fragments on the planets gives you a picture and lore about that picture, like mars settlements for example.

But.... if you move your mouse around on that picture, listening closely, you might find some MORE lore about a completely unrelated, but cool topic.
