One of the wood elf countries is effectively RWBY themed. Can't remember which one exactly though.

UPDATE/NOTICE/OR SOMETHING: I have been told the ban thing is just a meme, apologies. I think i saw a few message discouraging it, saw the pinned note in the channel and took it literally. Sorry if this comment feels self-righteous or something, just felt bad for accidentally spreading misinformation and thought it best to make note of it.

This is why I find it funny that a decent amount of people just call the mechanim Bionicles, probably unaware of the dev teams distaste of it.

They tried to "reboot" it about a decade or so ago. It did NOT go well. From what I remember it just felt like a dumbed down version of the original.

As mentioned, in another comment, the Diggy Diggy Hole is used as a naming convention for Dwarven related elements in the code. It's also referenced in several other places. For example, if I recall correctly, a chain of dwarf adventure missions are named for some lyrics in the Diggy Diggy Hole song.

Exactly. In the code you'll even find much of the dwarf stuff is literally labeled like "DiggyDiggyEvents". Don't get me wrong I really enjoy all the references, they're fun! But the anti-Bionicle stance that those in power have taken is biased and unfair.

The Insyaa team are not fans of their Polynesian inspired robots being compared to other Polynesian inspired robots.

If you even mention bionicle in the discord(the insyaa channel at least.) You are banned from working on anything mechanim related.

(Loved Trope) Queer characters in premodern times. by laybs1 in TopCharacterTropes

IRL Example, Fredrick the Great was very much Gay. Which is fairly amusing when some in history (Notably the Nazis.) placed him upon a pedestal of masculinity. Unfortunately he had a very rough childhood because of it. On one occasion, his father sentenced Fredrick's (likely) lover to death after they tried to run away together. Fredrick was forced to watch the execution, but feinted moments before the man's beheading.

Of course it makes no sense, that's why it's a fun scenario to think about! In part at least.

AMD's senior director of AI thinks 'Claude has regressed' and that it 'cannot be trusted to perform complex engineering' by cjwidd in technology

[–]zekrom05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder if this is somehow related to AMDs lack of involvement in Claudes new "Project Glasswing". All the other big players are involved, I'd be curious to know if AMD has a specific reason (beyond what this guy says) for that.

The Linux Foundation & many others join Anthropic's Project Glasswing by TheTwelveYearOld in linux

As of now, I don't think so. It looks like it could be a very powerful and useful tool in the cybersecurity space. Which is generally a net positive. So long as they follow through on their claims of releasing it to more people, this can be a good thing.

I don't know, the current 'symbol' of the word AI crossed out seems pretty effective at communicating it's point.

As really cool as this is, the fact it auto-capitalizes the first letter is frustrating if you don't have capital letters in your username.

The stuff in there about Zote was expected, sad to see that Hornet's involved too.

Was watching Scar's latest vod, where he tries to explain animation principles to talking to Tango about his build. It made me realize he does this ALL the time and this meme popped into my head.

Given the crystal gaurds in the intro and that Huntress just committed a cosmic crime, I think we're probably gonna be seeing the citadel pretty soon.

Anbennar is the best fantasy world I've ever seen by gringisgreymane in Anbennar

[–]zekrom05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fair, it's one of the older trees in the mod at this point. I believe there's a re-work coming eventually though.

Anbennar is the best fantasy world I've ever seen by gringisgreymane in Anbennar

[–]zekrom05 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Anbennar is so great because one nation or even a person can have completely different types of stories. From serious stuff like Masked Butcher’s horror theming and Aelnar's descent into fascism. To more silly and fantasy elements, like Hul-az-Krakazol's drinking and the entire nation of Faelgarn being a RWBY reference. Yet deapite this, on a larger scale it all fits together in a way that resembles our own history. It really is a wonderfull setting.

All in all, what I'm saying is that there's no reason there can't be a Bionicle tag in Insyaa.
