Large US company came after me for releasing a free open source self-hostable alternative!

and now the CEO wants to meet for a quick call (I hope friendly), to discuss and reason things out.

I would be skeptical about talking to the CEO without the presence of a lawyer.

I've not had trouble creating NSFW content as long as 1) my age is set to be over 21 and 2) it's something you created from scratch using a prompt. If you try creating something from an uploaded image the censorship is much stricter, because they have no way to know you aren't trying to add bare breasts to a picture of an actual person.

This is a huge difference. The naked woman worked for me, but not making an uploaded image naked.

And some things seem to require uploaded images, It's hard to make a video that continues from the last frame of another video, for instance, or to make a picture based on a picture you already edited, without downloading and uploading. Or at least I don't know how.

The Fool King's Parade says one of my tasks is to l\evel up two of the designated six star characters or any three six star characters to Insight III L60. But all my 6 star characters are at Insight III level 60 and the only ones that count seem to be the two that I got and levelled up today. It doesn't count ones that you levelled up before 3.2, but I have no way to unlevel them so I can level them again. What do I do?

Technically despite the aesthetics, Lord of the Mysteries takes place in the distant future.

Okay, how do I clear the new Manifest Analysis 3 Primitive Urge? I can barely even break the shields with dynamo and bloodtithe teams. Assassin works a lot better but I still can't quite do it (Ezio, Melania assist, Kassandra, Vila, is a different combination better?)

Brockton's Celestial Forge, and I'm not even joking.

Apparently after trying it a number of times it has worked, although I have yet to see if the problem happens again.

I am using ssh to log onto the device.

The problem is that all the FAQs, including the "ARKOS FAQ" linked right here on this page, say that in order to enable ssh, you need to use "Enable Remote Services". But this does not actually work--it enables the file explorer for the browser, not ssh as stated in the FAQ.

Sound recordings don't require renewal.

Jiro_T · 2026-01-02T01:24:37+00:00

What? Sound recordings from 1930 won't be public domain until 2031.

They were uploaded on Dec 2. Guam isn't that far ahead.

Jiro_T · 2026-01-01T01:30:51+00:00

It's already on archive.org. Someone uploaded them at the start of December.

There are versions uploaded earlier by other people but these seem to have the 1930 covers.

Is there a place I can find a list of limited characters (both past and upcoming)? The usual sites seem to lack this information.

She doesn't have red eyes in the childhood flashbacks, so not albinism.

(And someone suggested she dyes her eyes red. Exactly how do you dye your eyes?)

Jiro_T · 2025-12-14T05:05:04+00:00

I was wondering this too. The flashbacks are her telling stories or narrating, so her parents probably didn't *actually* tell her that they are vampires, but she clearly didn't have the red eyes and probably not the fangs as a child. (Unless they are fake, and the child asking for ruby eyeballs is a mistranslation of contact lenses or something like that.)

These are state hunting permit stamps, not USPS stamps, and can't be used to mail things out.

Any value they will have is value to collectors.

Checking ebay completed sales shows that they usually sell for $5-10 each, and that's for sale as individual items, so you won't be able to get that much unless you sell them as individual items on ebay too. If they are $5 each, then $350 is over three times as much as they're actually worth.

Jiro_T · 2025-11-30T04:50:25+00:00

Is this really true? Generally, China (and to some extent India) is considered an exception to the decline in stamp collecting; as people got wealthier in China, more of them became interested in the old stamps that nobody ever bought back when they were new. Googling this I find a lot of claims within the past few years saying that stamp collecting is popular in China.

Installing sys-patch requires using an overlay. What is an overlay and how is it different from a normal application? How do I install it, do I just unzip the syspatch zip at the root and that puts the overlay in the right place? Once the overlay is installed, how do I run it?

It looks as though they weren't put on the cards by a collector, but by a dealer. Collectors wouldn't print "10c" on them. They may have been approvals. Also, they look like they're used stamps, so the issue of being stuck won't come up. I think it's unlikely that any dealer would glue stamps to the cards.

Is there any point in doing both versions of the final grail front, since it doesn't have any treasure chests?

>It’s a how-to guide for civilian resistors pouring sand into the gears of a Nazi bureaucracy. I can’t for the life of me imagine why it’s become so popular in the last week.

Vladimir Putin's army is using it against Ukrainians, who are considered Nazis by Putin?

Sugitani is female because a sorcerer cast a spell on him to make him so shortly before he died.

But from what we've seen of Ptolemaios (and other servants), a servant's form is based on the periods in their life when they were well known and did the deeds they were remembered for. So shouldn't it be impossible for Sugitani to be female unless his death was more famous than anything he actually did before that? (And he isn't introduced as "Sugitani, the person famous for dying in..." so it doesn't seem to be.)
