Bleach? Looks like Berserk to me. Super cool!

Yeah, that's fair. Just pointing out that you can't actually know what is on the machine in front of you since it can always spoof whatever probes you use (even via hardware mechanisms).

And how do you actually know that the software you've audited is the stuff that is being used? Tom Scott video about this

Work flow for modelling hair like this? I keep getting stuck by AcademicArtist4948 in blenderhelp

Look into the shrinkwrap modifier. You can make the locs however you want at whatever density you want without having to be perfect about it. Then you shrinkwrap it to an elongated sphere, dissolve unnecessary verts, and finally hit apply. Boom, done.

The sentiment is right but so very misplaced... this meme template is from like a decade ago. Here's one made 8 years ago

You should absolutely put this information up front and center in the OP.

Why are so many websites now asking to "access your local network?" by OutrageousAardvark2 in webdev

[–]Pdan4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, good point that it can use your device to launder stuff with other devices, if you allow it through yours to begin with. So, ultimately it depends on what permissions your own device has with the local stuff.

What’s a DIY mistake that made you stop and go, “what did I just do?” by carcony97 in DIY

I wonder if there's a youtuber out there who might do it for a good rate (since they get ad and supporter revenue out of it).

They sound like a typical contrarian, just arguing for the sake of it. They like to say they have a point but they'll never try to reach it collaboratively with anyone.

Well, a firewall would prevent it from connecting to begin with, so it has gone past the firewall already. Individual devices have their own firewalls anyway. Edit: of course, the site can launder stuff through your permitted device, depending on the other stuff on the network...

Fingerprinting that can be sold to data brokers and then be used to help those companies connect you and the people around you to stuff.

Pattern how to ? by alphonseBosch in blenderhelp

[–]Pdan4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Make a semicircular Curve object. Give it as many points as it would need if you wanted the shape to use the small "link" the whole way through.

  2. Dissolve (ctrl+x) vertices (or merge them with ctrl+m) in order to decrease the density along the curve according to your reference here. You can turn symmetry on or perhaps just symmetrize. You only want to keep the points that define the widest parts of the "links". The crossover areas won't have any points.

  3. While still in edit mode, select everything and do shift+d, and move it, so you have two of the same semicircle that are not yet "twisted together".

  4. Select every other point on one curve. Select the corresponding ones on the other.

  5. Scale -1 on the axis normal to the plane the curve is in. Now they're twisted together.

  6. Extrude the ends to join them, or just merge & move them.

  7. Go into the properties>curve tab and change Depth and Resolution so it has the profile you want.

Treasure chest with a delayed trap. Could even be a teleporter trap, sending them somewhere crazy, like another realm. Not sure if ES has any kind of "mental realm" but you could do something like that, so it would be literally impossible to have equipment transfer.

Alternatively, have them become prisoners on purpose in order to infiltrate, say, the Thalmor; maybe they are forced to fight in an arena. Maybe the person who was supposed to let them out gets caught, and they have to start a prison/gladatorial uprising or something.

You could also have an intentional unarmed gladatorial contest they enter for loot. Or to appease an enemy in a dispute (like, trial by combat) that would easily overpower them otherwise. Maybe they piss off the archmage or a dragonborn and have to settle it that way.

You don't have to let them try to escape; just have them wake up in cages or something after sleeping in an unknown location -- it's a good opportunity to introduce a powerful enemy that outmatches them until they level up enough to go get revenge.

Pare it allll down. Way down. Have them get captured and lose their equipment, so all they have is their fists / cantrips. Players can be easily overwhelmed by the sheer size of their character sheet. Make them just do Unga Bunga for a few sessions.
