Reposting these because I have new art to post later. A GW2 AU where Herman is a Sylvari engineer (Commander) and Jacky is a wartime messenger with an asura-tech tail. The inquest opted her into it without asking. I break GW2’s lore where it suits me because none of this matters.
I browsed my tag the other day to look at the old art (same AU, before the expansions). So many silly screenshots.
Google has announced that starting in June 2024, ad blockers such as uBlock Origin will be disabled in Chrome 127 and later with the rollout of Manifest V3 (#Mv3).
The original post does not explain it well enough, so I will do it instead:
Google intends to make a change to Chromium that has been announced a while ago, and the deadline has been moved a few times, that among other things, affects how extensions can act upon what happens when a browser downloads a webpage, which will affect ad blocking.
The new approach is fundamentally different to what extensions could do before, and ad blockers for Chromium-based browsers will need to adapt to new approach in order to keep working after this change gets introduced.
The link above leads to the Google’s announcement, where in one of the linked pages, they provide an explanation for why they do this
Blocking or modifying network requests in Manifest V2 could significantly degrade performance and require excessive access to sensitive user data. The Declarative Net Request API allows extensions to block or modify web content with fewer permissions and without hindering performance.
The link below leads to a discussion on what it will specifically affect, and in particular it has gorhill (the original author of uBlock Origin, and also the current maintainer), mentioning an attempt at making a version of uBlock Origin that works under the new approach, and a technical overview of the differences.
idk why but i feel like being a punk is for he/hims and doing ballet is for she/hers

i hate whenever theres a paladin/knight/generally gruff protector-type character in an alternate or historical time period, and when theyre adapted to the modern day or theres a popular modern AU headcanon theyre ALWAYS a cop. you fools. you fucking fools. a good aligned paladin wouldnt be a cop they would be a drug sponsor. a domestic cleaner. a child support worker. a sanitation worker. its not about cutting people in half with a zweihander its about serving the goddamn community
revisiting this to say
i love people in the tags saying what their paladins would be – personally, my paladin orion would be a child psychologist
people were saying it is a little about cutting people in half with a zweihander, just not in a police brutality way, and i stand corrected
I just realized something terrible and shouldn’t be spoken but this is the poor life decisions website so here we go:
All these bot creators are terrible at reading the room. Very few people are interested in sexting with ill-defined women on this website.
They need to switch the script. Put out something for the monsterfuckers and the robotfuckers. Maybe even some /males/.
Tell me you wouldn’t respond to a DM from an ancient eldrich being who is looking for a short term soul to sup on.
Tell me you wouldn’t respond to a DM from a Cybertronian who wants to hear about new music from Earth.
Tell me you wouldn’t respond to a DM from a werewolf who needs someone to pet them and tell them they’re a good boy/girl.
@staff I’m so sorry that if this comes to be and please tell Brad the Intern who is the sole Health and Safety engineer that I will get them a nice Irish coffee at the next Dashcon.
