  Mietze recently banned another clone of our sometimes-mellow-than-WTF right-wing troll.

  Later, we noticed an account with a similar "anonymous" e-mail address was registered.

  Clearly, this motherfucker seems to think that we like playing games. I have no doubt we'll play this cat-and-mouse game like a sad simile of the Batman-Joker routine. And you know what? I'm fucking sick and tired of it because it is interfering with my raging alcoholism.

  So, for the next little while, there's no automatic registration. We'll be approving them. And if some other shitbag wants to, oh I don't know, spam the fuck out of us with accounts, then we'll simply disable them and allow user-invite only for a while.

  How long will this go on? I don't know. Hopefully long enough that people will take a fucking hint, but I'm smart and cynical enough to realize that some people are out to ruin shit for others.

  Got issues getting online? PM me.

  @sunny Man, all of that. People are SO HAPPY to be able to do 'their character's thing'. If you give a character a chance to do the thing the player built them to do, or show interest in the character's Thing, you will see a character COME TO LIFE so many times.

  Not always - I've definitely had those moments where I do everything to try and draw a character in based on the hooks they've written for that character and get nada. But those are a minority. Usually, you get the best RP from other people when you show even the slightest interest in them as characters.

  @too-old-for-this yep. Temp rooms are great for a variety of spaces, including versions of ones that already exist.

  @testament said in Good TV:

  I think a lot of people's gripes was the fact that the trailers gave the expectation that there'd be a lot more He-Man when the first half the season is based more around Teela.

  I think these complaints are stupid too. That's not why I was disappointed.

  After watching the first half-season a second time, I think my peeve arises in the development of its ideas. I find Teela's character arc difficult to believe given her choice revolves around a single-albeit-important event. There's a lot of unspoken, unwritten background information that a casual fan like myself did not quite grasp. And there's a whole lot going on that could have been better developed. The half-season could have easily have been a full season of material.

  This is similar to what I found in the War for Cybertron series. And it is the opposite of what I concluded for the failed Thundercats reboot. So, yes, I definitely wanted more because there was so much more there to be done.

  Also, they could have done a full reboot, as they did with their other successful Filmation series.

  On a whole other note, Netflix continues its development of 80s nostalgia, but I am happy that they have the original author on board (as Sapkowski was for The Witcher) and let James Wan do the producing.

  Another update! I've added some functionality to the GET request feature!

  Now you can pull from git repositories directly!
  format.ursamu.io/api?include=git:lcanady/archive-test

  Or! You can drill in even further:

  format.ursamu.io/api?include=git:lcanady/archive-test/code/file1.mush

  Next, I'll be working on going the other direction - compressed code to pretty code. The GUI is fun, but I have to admit - being able to shortcut right to the output has proven hella useful. :)

  Enjoy!

  @bloodangel broadly, Sindome had core code from Cybersphere, if I recall. Sindome is far and away different than CS is, now

  I prefer CS, because I feel like I can make a decent character now, instead of being utterly shit for forever on Sindome. The RP on both have been great for me over the years. Just... Far less on CS because it's a small player base game now.

  What CS gas going for it over Sindome, in my opinion, is a fleshed out Matrix.

  This time I am on time! :D New version, quick because a crashing bug was found, but also a feature I've always kind of wished was possible...

  4.00.308 - 2021-5-24

  Added 'Input Window - Autocomplete Whole Line' Added YouTube link previews -- (to inline images, as thumbnails with titles!) Added tooltips to inline images (shows the full video title for youtube previews) Fixed a bug with accessibility, can cause a crash if over a line just deleted Fixed a hang when inline images/image viewer is on and the URL is not valid

  Grab it from the Microsoft Store (ideally), or alternatively from the github, and then go to the Discord and tell Bennet you're as happy not to have to play Youtube link roulette anymore as I am! (I mean, if you are, obviously. But why wouldn't you be?)

  Previews!

  Playing a character that is playing a character seems too many levels deep.

  Having a blast doing it on The Network.
