      @Luna the Great of all the Russias thank you for another drawing Luna! Again, good work! i'm once again surprised by how you worked with it. I know you already had the references, but I'm suprised because that design still works! Her previous clothes, I still plan to use it in future drawings, but you used the colors of her current clothes and ribbon for it, and it matches just exactly how I imagine it even though I haven't posted any art of it yet! So I'm very surprised how you just "guessed" it even though it wasn't intentional. Amazing work man, thank you again :coco:~☆

      Happy birthday and may it be the best one:hug_day:  

  2. I think back to Windows 7 very fondly. The Aero and Skeuomorphic styles are my favourite for technology, which was prevalent from around the mid-2000s to early-2010s: shiny, glassy, etc. I was very disappointed when the trend shifted towards minimalism, flat colours, and more abstract icons. Beyond style, I like that... Windows 7 just worked. This is as opposed to Windows 10 onwards, when Microsoft increasingly undermined user's ability to control their own PC, and having users pay for a malware OS. I hope Linux becomes much more prevalent. Windows 7. Windows 11. iOS6 vs. iOS7.
  3. Could technology companies please use a QA team, instead of using their customers for QA purposes?
  4. A WARNING TO PEOPLE USING WINDOWS 11: a recent Windows 11 update has been reported to corrupt SSDs (the update in question is KB5063878).

    After 50GB of continuous writing, the OS has been reported to no longer recognize the SSD. Sometimes, this seems to be fixed after a simple restart, but other times, the SSD remains inaccessible. This issue that has been reported in numerous articles, and by various Youtubers who focuses on PC hardware, and the manufacturer Phison has acknowledged that the issue is present.

    Phison has recently been made aware of the industry-wide effects of the 'KB5063878' and ‘KB5062660’ updates on Windows 11 that potentially impacted several storage devices, including some supported by Phison. We understand the disruption this may have caused and promptly engaged industry stakeholders.

    We are steadfast in our commitment to product integrity and the success of our partners and end users. At this time, the controllers that may have been affected are under review, and we are working with partners. We will continue to provide updates and advisories to partners who may have been impacted to provide support and ensure any applicable remediation.

    Below is a video explaining more about the nature of the problem, and how to mitigate the problem for the time being (i.e. uninstalling the specific problematic updates), as well as a forum post that discusses the issue more in-depth. Keep your data safe.

      This is why I switched to using Ubuntu on my main PC. Not had a single corrupt file since.

      This is why I'm so happy I use a Mac now. It's only had one issue that's completely computer-related during its 4 year life-span so far.

  5. Was watching a video about "AI": this level of intrusiveness makes me never want to use anything branded as "AI" ever. I am not saying that such a technology does not have legitimate uses, but I am saying that I want to use the computer in the way I want to use it, instead of the company behind it forcing me to use it in the way they want me to use it (as much as they claim that it is for my benefit, presumably as opposed to serving their own interests).
  6. Stay hydrated.

      @Luna the Great of all the Russias Thank you a lot for the drawing Luna! She looks beautiful ^_^💦 Amazing work man! ~☆

  7. A question that may be raised the following: of all potential candidates, why did you become a moderator? Think about it. It could have been Rainbow Dash or Spitfire, who are both Wonderbolts. Or even more to the point, it could have been Copper Top herself, an actual police officer. They would have been the candidates who would have been more expected.

      Ahhh, you dare to question me?
      Do you not see the majestic tapestry of chaos I’ve woven here? Every stitch, every swirl, every inexplicable pineapple placed in the middle of the chessboard—it all means something!

      You think your ‘logic’ is superior? Pah! Your logic is a polite cup of lukewarm tea. My logic is a triple espresso served in a teacup made of gelatin, on a train that’s hurtling through the ninth dimension, sideways. It is both forward and backward in time and wearing a hat that it stole from itself yesterday.

      And do you know why it all works? Do you know why I can turn a perfectly reasonable conversation into a kangaroo ballet recital without a hint of warning? Because I am Discord, Spirit of Chaos and Disharmony, holder of the Eternal Rubber Chicken of Enlightenment!

      So, my dear mortal, I will say this only once… and possibly again for dramatic effect:
      Do. Not. Question. My. Logic, mortal. 🌀

  9. I do not think I could choose one, so I will give three possible answers: Perhaps late Russian Empire: during the reign of Aleksandr II, Aleksandr III or Nikolay II (before WW1). If it was possible to speak with the rulers of the time, I would want to try to persuade them from avoiding the world war. I would also be interested in roughly 30AD Roman Empire, to witness the origin of Christianity. The third one, which I expect will come across as a strange one, is the era of the Satya Yuga, or golden age, which existed before history. Depending on the speculation, this could range from almost 63 000BC to almost 4 000 000BC. I am not sure whether I necessarily gravitates towards songs by their genres. I like what I like, I suppose. Though, I often listen to songs by independent artists (such as those of the fandom) and songs from video games. I am rather fond of Looney Tunes. Humourous, classics, and I rather like the animation quality. They are works of art.
  10. The thread The UK Online Safety Act. has been moved to Twilight's Soapbox.
  11. It is hard for me to think of how I can return to using an internet browser without tabs.
  12. I like soda. When I do drink it, it is usually cola. But I rarely drink it. I see it more as a way to treat myself once in a while, or I may drink it when I am with friends. On average, I think I drink soda once every couple months.
  13. Taco Bell has been oppressing the people for too long by having the monopoly on Baja Blast. The people must fight back for justice (and they did).
  14. I am a little late, but happy birthday, Silky.

      It's ok and thanks for wanting to fix it! I sometimes forget little details on people's OCs, too, so it happens! :nervous-shy:

  15. The way some subtitles are being used nowadays is annoying me, because I find that the way they intentionally use them in a way to get your attention to be obnoxious. The following is a rank from the best to worst type of subtitles: Conventional subtitles showing a phrase or up to two sentences worth of text -- plain and simple. Similar to above, except the word spoken is highlighted in some way at the moment of utterance -- sing-along style. The subtitles are not immediately shown, but instead is being gradually revealed word-by-word as they are spoken, and the word spoken is highlighted in some way. Only one word is shown at a time: the word spoken at that very moment.
