After an initial round of feedback, I've tweaked how the BHG "fires" the singularity. Instead of it being thrown from the gun itself, it now spawns wherever you're looking when it fires. Because of this, the player themselves are also beholden to the gravitational pull, which is definitely an added risk to the reward of being able to immediately delete everything across the battlefield...

Today, my list of Digital Services Providers, outside US Jurisdiction, was featured in Wired Magazine.

WIRED · How to Avoid US-Based Digital Services—and Why You Might Want ToBy Violet Blue

We’ve heard the complaints about our use of #AI.

Let’s be clear: this train isn’t stopping. You can either help steer it, or end up sweeping the tracks behind it.

At worst? You’ll be validating what machines have already tagged.
At best? You’ll be evolving the tech, shaping the ethics, and solving the very problems you're raising.

With March having marked Es Con Field Hokkaido’s second anniversary, the home of the Nipponham Fighters finds itself in the middle of plans for a new train station, a commercial complex, even a college.

I've been trying to decide what other weird weapons I want to add to my pack along with the pipebombs I've showed off before, and I've got a few stewing in some early notes documents here and there, but I was quickly inspired to make this behemoth, the Black Hole Generator, or BHG. Most of the base weapon code pulls from the standard BFG-9000 that HDest defines, but instead of a giant ball of Gretchenfrage flavored death, this gun fires, as the name implies, a Black Hole Singularity.

Still working on the graphical assets while I nail down the mechanics, but I finally got this thing behaving in a way that doesn't immediately crash or destroy itself out of nowhere, so that's progress!

CoPIlot should have seen it. "I know you keep SAYING there's an unhandled exception being dumped here, but this code doesn't dump any unhandled exceptions. But I did notice that you're reading and dumping a file, perhaps there is an exception dump IN one of your data files?"

But no, because CoPilot is constrained to only look at the code file that is open, or the code files of your solution, its artificially constrained.

Went w/ integrated graphics for the time being & it is more than I need. Does #3dprinting slicing & drawing just fine, #virtualization just fine, #ffmpeg & the little bit of video editing I do. Blows the old i7-6700 w/ 16GB out of the water!
