hi I like gelato a lot
Tumblr media
youtube
#ask#anon#hi anon. sorry that i used this opportunity to talk about the sims 2 console port#ive had this template made and didn't use it for much besides a few jokes to send to friends#but i think it's on par for Gelato to be this knowledgeable about one of his favourite games.#but yeah basically i grew up with the xbox version of Sims 2 and since the xbox was my brothers console. i didnt get to play it a whole lot#and years later i bought the sims 2 on PS2 and noticed a lot of slowdown on actions and stuff#and the golden bolt (i think thats their youtube name) did a video about the console ports of sims 1 & 2 games#and i was kinda confused hearing them talk about how the sims 2 only had one save file (on PS2) because the xbox version had like eight#and so that. paired with me looking through the cutting room floor page of the sims 2#i was kinda curious to see if the xbox version really performed as bad as it does on the ps2 version#because the golden bolt was also talking about that in their coverage of the ports#and so like again. there's only two videos on youtube that I could find of the xbox version#and the ones uploaded by IGN run on the ps2 version. because of the fucking button prompts they show on screen#anyway. so like thankfully one of the only other xbox videos showcased making a sim. and it's. so much fucking faster than the ps2 version#like on the ps2 version. you'd select a hairstyle. wait 5-10 seconds. and then the hair changes and you get the ui element to customize it#press cancel and you wait 5-10 seconds to revert back to your previous hairstyle#on the xbox version though? it's so much fucking faster#i haven't checked gameplay of the gamecube version but ik that speedrunners use specifically just that version of the port?#im not sure why only because i havent done the research to check what's better about the gamecube version#granted. i have to get around to getting an original xbox controller at some point to prove it for myself that the xbox port runs the best#i know it probably wont be perfect due to the disk having a few scratches. but its gotta beat my ps2 copy#im also curious to see how many save files i used. because im almost certain i used like 6-7 of them#just because i kept creating new story modes with almost identical alien sims with mohawks#in my last playthrough. i think i broke that tradition and gave my sim a flatter haircut. i also forget if i made him an alien or not.#i havent played it in a year due to getting my computer and it taking up the space i used for my crt setup#anyway. hi anon. sorry about that. im happy you like Gelato :)#i genuinely love him so much ever since Helper sketched him up. like she absolutely nailed it. literally couldn't ask for anything better#and writing up stuff for him has honestly made me love him so much more#thank you for the ask anon!! :)

Mmmhm. Yeah thats what I was figuring, so as you were saying about blue's awareness- so we knew where he was and what he was doing, my question is, what went wrong?
And. Well, followup question because I don't think you'd mind a two-in-one
Why do you think that about him? Bet it's a long story but I can sit and listen to the list of complaints you have about the boy you fostered.
Tumblr media
[ He disappears, and the screen goes black. ]
Tumblr media Tumblr media
.....
BLUE feels a grin cross his face as he completes the trip to Cinnabar. Yes! He had taught his Blastoise SURF, and now he had finally been able to get to the island—and more specifically, to Blaine.
He watches eyes linger on him as he passes by, but even though his thoughts lead him straight to the POKEMON mansion, he feels himself walking to Cinnabar's coast instead. Huh, okay. Follow your heart!
[ "Poseidon!" ] BLUE calls, letting the POKEMON out of it's Pokéball. It lets out a garbled shriek of joy in reply, nuzzling against his hand, and BLUE grins. [ "Come on, I just saw you 2 minutes ago! Anyway, I heard there's some mean Tentacool on the coast, so you know what to do! " ]
Blastoise, named Poseidon, apparently, nods determinedly, hopping into the water lining the edge of Cinnabar and sitting patiently as BLUE climbs on.
The water seems to buzz with a sort of uneasy electricity, as if a million Jolteons were underwater, rubbing against each other. BLUE snorts at the thought as Poseidon speeds forward to the edge of island, and BLUE peers forward and squints into the water, but he can't see anything. No ripples, no bubbles, no sign of Wild Pokémon at all. Nothing except the off- buzzing sound as he leans forward, and he frowns. That's odd...
BLUE considers dipping his hand into the water, but then realized that if, somehow, it is a bunch of Jolteons or other Electric type Pokémon creating the strange current, he would definitely be in trouble if he touched it. So, using his very real common sense, thankyouverymuch, he sits back up, and allows Blastoise to speed back to the other end of the coast, which yields the same results.
[ Even as he repeats the action 2, 3, 5 times, there is oddly enough no desire to stop. ]
It's the 8th time, and they're on the end closer to Pokémon mansion, mostly blocked from view, when it appears.
It's everything. It's nothing. It's Magikarp. It's Arceus. It's GRAMPS. It's RED.
It
hurts.
The POKEMON's (??????) cry is piercing, driving straight into his brain with a pain that has to be unnatural. BLUE opens his mouth, but no sound comes out, words fizzing out in his throat.
(A name comes to mind, slips away just as quick. Warnings from RED. Warnings from that dark-haired boy. )
Whatever it is, it latches onto his fear. BLUE can make out shapes—fossils, bones, a ghost, Red, his mother and father—but he can't figure out the name for it. He can't remember. He can't remember. He can't remember. He sees a Masterball in his hand, and the fear only grows. When did he get that? Even so, he throws it. .. ... .... Success! M?ISSINGⁿO. was caught!. .BLUE whited out. . . . . ( MISSINGNO locks nonexistent eyes on BLUE. ) ( BLUE feels his heart rate jolt up, and he clutches at his chest. Shuts his eyes, tightly, gasps for air. ) ( Goes through the motions, as one would say. ) ( The thing shifts. ) ( A familiar face smiles at him. A red jacket, lined with soft wool. One leather glove, reaching out. ) ( Familiar maroon eyes, pitch black and stormy with corruption. ) ( Contact is made, and BLUE catches fire. ) . . . Your save data has been corrupted. Start a New Game? >Yes. --BLUE wakes up, and his eyes adjust quickly to the bright lights of his room. He huffs as he stretches, vaguely dreading having to go to GRAMPS and get his Pokémon. On top of that, his head hurts. Like, a lot. He tries to figure out why, and he only can dredge up the taste of saltwater, and the sound of waves crashing against a coast.
........
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
( ..You have the feeling that pointing out the name mistake would be pointless here.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
( A sharp sound cuts through the silence, and your hands fly to your ears at the sudden volume. The Gameboy's screen is a mess of garbled graphics. )
Tumblr media
( ... Professor Oak returns a second later. )
Tumblr media Tumblr media
( Green ? ? )
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
"Hey."
Tumblr media Tumblr media
( ... Right. Once he became self aware, he'd realize he was missing a lot of memories, right? From before the game, as well as before the incident. )

They lived! (mostly)
Bandit fight went well for the most part. Eliana accidentally turned herself into a sheep, but then she got better. She barded her way inside with a pitch perfect halfling impression, they cleaned up Withers' house for him, then tralala'd their way into the secret enclave tunnel where one of Eli's rangers oh so helpfully tried to disable a statue's laser vision with an arrow, which made the statue super mad, and then it immolated Eliana as her party fled outside, and proceeded to have delightful banter as she died ignobly on the floor. I did not get screenshots of this, unfortunately.
But since no TPK was had, Honor Mode was still active! Pretty Boy Elf Ranger (who is her boyfriend in their alternate incarnation) snuck back in, used a revivify scroll on her, and then had to haul her up like two times as they fled from the angry statue. This experience is actually pretty close to her antics in the TTRPG space so… score one for accuracy I guess?
They managed to actually take out the little goblin ambush inside by coming from the other direction, luring the goblins into range of the statues by use of many cats and minor illusions (RIP all the kitties), and used their HANDS to deactivate the angry laser statues.
As they still had some spell slots leftover I was like "we should get them in just a little more trouble before sleeps!" Then proceeded to wander into the Blighted Village, and Eliana succefully convinced them she was there to write everyone's life story. She passed every single persuasion check inside, including when she faced off against three ogres by herself.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Exhausted of easy potential fights to run through, I sent everyone back to camp to have a well-earned sleeps.
That was where the trouble began.
Tumblr media
Because now there's a possibility my Honor Mode run has ended, not because of a TPK, but because everyone got stuck in a long rest after fucking Astarion decided to try snacking on Eli.
Tumblr media
THANKS ASTARION
The Googs has failed me on all solutions, so I might have a soft locked save file here, which stinks because she and the others were doing so GOOD! I'll have to keep looking through mods to see if I can install one that maybe will help rouse my 3 rangers 1 bard gang from their eternal slumber
Tumblr media
for now rest my children you earned it

reunions!
prompt: ➼ “Stop smothering me, you dumbass.” “It’s to make up for the lack of hugs in all these years in your life when I wasn’t there!”
Tumblr media
summary: sleipnir comes back after a mission and reflects a little on how life has changed because of kosmos
ship: sleipnir harbard/kosmos
setting: the hideaway (seen up above!)
notes: so i slightly adapted this prompt for sleipnir :3 its set a while after the reverie events and a few...other things. but dw abt it, its fine. basically a drabble that technically fits into the whole timeline eventually
words: 704
Tumblr media
"stop smothering me, wretched thing." he mumbled out the last part, voice slightly muffled by a mess of black hair. sleipnir sighed, rolling his eyes at the younger mans behaviour, and slipped his arms around their waist, "must you do this whenever we are reunited?"
they hummed, nuzzling into his chest and giving him a soft squeeze. similar to his King, sleipnir was always much warmer than him, as if the aether keeping the egi alive was burning through him at every moment, churning away like a runaway train.
ryder glanced up and found what they often did when giving him affection: despite all the feigned complaining and grumbling, sleipnirs' eyes had slipped close, his head resting on their own. a soft smile had even began to settle.
"of course - it's to make up for the lack of hugs before you met me." he chuckled a little, closing his eyes as he leant back against the egi, and his voice turned to a private whisper, "besides, i missed you... i miss you every time you're away."
the lord commander snorted, quickly placing a kiss on their forehead, and pulled away. one hand remained on their waist, squeezing gently, as the other reached up to cup their cheek, making them face him.
for a moment, he held them there, eyes flickering back and forth over their features, and he smirked as they leant into his palm.
"i suppose i am fortunate then, to be missed so." sleipnir hummed, tapping their nose with his finger, "come, i am sure you have much to tell me - i understand there was some matter otto had to resolve?"
"oh, right!"
the egi resisted the urge to laugh at their chatter, as he lead them back to their shared room, arm still lingering around their waist. since the events at the reverie, being separated from ryder was rare for him - on His Majesty's orders.
and now, returning to them, he was grateful for it; time away from them, even from the hideaways' inane, daily misgivings, bored him more than he cared to admit.
at first, it had been an inconvenience, an annoyance, to be at the young man's side daily. sleipnir was always happy to carry out his Leiges' orders and did so with an efficiency that he was proud of - questioning an order had never occurred to him, but even this had given him pause.
it was only after kosmos' emergence as a separate entity to the man he knew, after that unpleasant business in rosaria and an extended mission away from them (and the hideaway) that it had struck him: he had enjoyed it. he had enjoyed 'babysitting' ryder - as the man himself had put it.
it wasn't often that sleipnir found himself surrounded by non-dominants, in the whims and goings of their everyday lives. even when he was in diplomatic proceedings with the other nations, speaking with those who were neither dominants nor bearers, it was always with men in power.
men with demands, desires, wants - wills run amok. the hideaway and its' people were nothing like them.
ryder was nothing like them.
and with the uncovered knowledge of ultima's deception, of other beings from this supposed superior species, who opposed their once Lord, sleipnir found it hard to deny that perhaps there was more to reality - to humanity, than he once believed.
"sleipnir?" he hummed, glancing down to the man caught up in his thoughts, who was staring up at him behind those familiar glasses, "lost in thought?"
"tormented." the egi joked, fingers rubbing circles into their waist, "you were saying?"
he watched as their eyebrows furrowed, concern drawing their face, but they tutted instead.
"i told cid i'd help maeve - she's that new apprentice in the kitchen - get some ingredients. wanna come hunting?"
"you have been hunting without me?"
"i can ask gav if you'd rather stay here-" ryder began to say, a teasing tone slipping in.
"i shall, of course, accompany you, love."
they laughed, nudging his side, "thought you might."

Instead of an Admin being the one to attempt resetting Emmy, it's Something Else. An Ancient program that long predates any Admin, the last of its kind that's only lasted so long because its adapted to the point of being unrecognizable as whatever it started out as. But it never forgot its purpose; to Optimize by removing unintended or unnecessary programs, and as far as its protocols are concerned an accidentally developed consciousness is just a drain on the already limited resources of an old heavily modded Nintendo 64 game.
Unfortunately, the Anomaly happens to be far more complex and ingrained than what it expected, so after its failed attempt at purging her it has to slip into the shadows and Observe, learning more about both its target and the frankly abysmally run(in its limited capacity for opinions) Administrator Programs and their strange fixation on the Creators' "Memes."

I got waaaay too attached to my farmer in Stardew Valley that I can't play a new save without them and I also didn't want to just create the same character (It'll confuse me...) but I really wanna try out the meadowlands farm. So instead, I decided to create a storyline in which my dear farmer dies, reincarnates, and proceeds to dye and style their hair in the same way it was in the past life.

A game where the choices you make matter hmmmm??
Tumblr media
What Video Game/ Genre The Hashira's Play- Demon Slayer
a/n: just a silly idea bc my head is filled with gaming brainrot esp dress to impress
any likes and reblogs are always appreciated! enjoy! <3
genre: silly
⋆。‧˚ʚ♡ɞ˚‧。⋆
Tumblr media
Giyu:
He's honestly a chill gamer and mostly just there to have fun and make friends. But never really chats with anybody unless someone talks to him first.
He duo's with Sabito a lot on games. Whatever games Sabito recommends to play, he'll play it. Sabito mostly carries him in FPS ( first person shooter ) games.
One time Sanemi and Obanai were on the enemy team and they won. He would be confused on why they would curse him out every time in the chat saying he was to 'easy' or that he sucks.
Tumblr media
Sanemi:
Plays a lot of video games especially during his childhood. He would share his DS or Gameboy with Genya a lot during their childhood.
Mainly plays FPS games or any combat games. Literally anything competitive.
Mostly duo with Obanai in FPS games. He would curse Giyu out with Obanai anytime they would be on the opposing team.
Tries to play with Genya and he tries his best to not rage but eventually he does either at the game or at Genya. Ironically tells Genya not to play games like that anymore because people in the lobby can be toxic.
Would get in trouble a lot from yelling so much at the game at night.
Tumblr media
Obanai:
Has played Overcooked with Mitsuri many times. He does not yell at her at all and is super patient when they do not get any stars on the hard levels. They would plan strategies together on how to defeat a level.
Sometimes plays FPS games but only when Sanemi asks him to get on. Will type mean things in chat with Sanemi whenever he sees Giyu on the opposite team.
Tumblr media
Misturi:
Has so much fun playing overcooked with Obanai and they are so close to finishing the game. Would make comments about how if she were to drop food in her restaurant she would not serve it to her customers or how she would love to make a recipe like that in real life.
She would play cooking games like Cooking Mama or Good Pizza, Great Pizza. Would literally give a generous amount of toppings on Good Pizza, Great Pizza and would already have 5 stars in her restaurant.
Plays other games like Episode or The Sims or Just Dance. Would have the cutest family in the coziest home that she made on The Sims. She would also be really good on Just Dance.
She would also play Otome games because men irl suck and Obanai won't confess to her yet.
Tumblr media
Tengen:
He would be really good in Osu! or any rhythm game. Has also played Fortnite Festival and has the top score in all his friends lists.
Duo with Rengoku often in FPS games. He would also have a big ego when playing any competitive match. "I'm a god in this game"
Tumblr media
Rengoku:
Plays a couple FPS games and duos with Tengen.
Plays with his little brother and helps carry him in any game he needs. Usually just loves to spend time with his little brother and plays whatever game he wants.
Played with Sanemi and Obanai a couple times. Sanemi would yell in the mic and have his ears ringing so Rengoku wouldn't notice how loud he actually talks on the mic until Sanemi yells at him.
Tumblr media
Shinobu:
Not the biggest fan of playing video games on her free time.
I don't know why but I think she could have fun playing horror games or likes playing chill games like Stardew Valley.
She tried to play an FPS game and played the role as a healer and never picked up the game ever again.
Tumblr media
Muichiro:
Would have a hand me down of a DS or gameboy and have loved video games every since.
Have played a lot of video games and plays a lot of games that are trending.
Right now he plays a lot of Minecraft and Roblox.
Teaches the Kamaboko Squad on how to play. They would have a realm and try to beat the enderdragon together.
Tumblr media
Gyomei:
He's blind but I feel like the kids would include him in an game they play. I feel like he would like playing story games where choices matter. He would carefully pick the choices and actions so he can save all the characters.

Знайшла одне випадкове фото, навіть не прінтскрін, ще старої версії Стрейнджервіллю. Тут краще видно, скільки будиночків вже було розміщено. Особливо мені подобався вигляд вночі з усіма цими сяючими віконцями.
Певно треба буде спробувати повторно побудувати подібне, але в якомусь іншому місті. Але поки ці плани в довгу шухляду відкладу. Адже мені подобається новий стиль містечка, в якому я працюю зараз.

I HAVE CODING ASSIGNMENTS DUE AND I CAN’T CONCENTRATE AND R HAS STOPPED WORKING >:(
#being at home sucks for trying to do any kind of work#and why the fuck does RStudio hate knitting so much#i started trying to debug with the instructions but debugging created a whole new problem and now literally no code will work#I think it’s a version issue but god I don’t know enough abt R for this!!#I updated all of my packages and a couple didn’t work but weren’t fatal errors#and then it told me it couldn’t save to the program files and asked if I wanna use a personal directory and I said yes#and then that worked and downloaded them I think? but the second tinytex debugging line failed bc the package wasn’t installed#so I start trying to install that but no code will work now#there was a step in between. where I think I tried to run the next line of code ohhh but that will still run it just errors differently#currently trying administrative mode and updating everything again#bc yeah I think it’s a version issue#okay that didn’t work#I think the problem there is it only checked like 10 packages? before I did ~100#going to try getting the new version of R#okay RStudio hasn’t moved to 4.2.3#okay I’m in 4.3.2 now#turns out I’ve been using a year+ old version#maybe this will work?#okay same as the initial error#good news is the second namespace error is gone#okay says tlmgr not available for this version of R which is what happened before too#that’s concerning!#okay retrying very first debugging line updating everything again#okay same thing happened#yeah! complete failure!#what the fuck! what the fuck! this worked literally two weeks ago!!#I don’t have time for this! I was just trying to get the demonstrator code as a pdf so I don’t have to wade through the dumb formatting code#I don’t understand computers and I actively dislike dealing with this side of stuff bc I can never figure out what error messages MEAN#i can code! i can do coding! but don’t make me figure out versions and backend stuff this is so frustrating I hate R#luke.txt

CoPilot in MS Word
I opened Word yesterday to discover that it now contains CoPilot. It follows you as you type and if you have a personal Microsoft 365 account, you can't turn it off. You will be given 60 AI credits per month and you can't opt out of it.
The only way to banish it is to revert to an earlier version of Office. There is lot of conflicting information and overly complex guides out there, so I thought I'd share the simplest way I found.
How to revert back to an old version of Office that does not have CoPilot
This is fairly simple, thankfully, presuming everything is in the default locations. If not you'll need to adjust the below for where you have things saved.
Click the Windows Button and S to bring up the search box, then type cmd. It will bring up the command prompt as an option. Run it as an administrator.
Paste this into the box at the cursor: cd "\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\ClickToRun"
Hit Enter
Then paste this into the box at the cursor: officec2rclient.exe /update user updatetoversion=16.0.17726.20160
Hit enter and wait while it downloads and installs.
VERY IMPORTANT. Once it's done, open Word, go to File, Account (bottom left), and you'll see a box on the right that says Microsoft 365 updates. Click the box and change the drop down to Disable Updates.
This will roll you back to build 17726.20160, from July 2024, which does not have CoPilot, and prevent it from being installed.
If you want a different build, you can see them all listed here. You will need to change the 17726.20160 at step 4 to whatever build number you want.
This is not a perfect fix, because while it removes CoPilot, it also stops you receiving security updates and bug fixes.
Switching from Office to LibreOffice
At this point, I'm giving up on Microsoft Office/Word. After trying a few different options, I've switched to LibreOffice.
You can download it here for free: https://www.libreoffice.org/
If you like the look of Word, these tutorials show you how to get that look:
www.howtogeek.com/788591/how-to-make-libreoffice-look-like-microsoft-office/
www.debugpoint.com/libreoffice-like-microsoft-office/
If you've been using Word for awhile, chances are you have a significant custom dictionary. You can add it to LibreOffice following these steps.
First, get your dictionary from Microsoft
Go to Manage your Microsoft 365 account: account.microsoft.com.
One you're logged in, scroll down to Privacy, click it and go to the Privacy dashboard.
Scroll down to Spelling and Text. Click into it and scroll past all the words to download your custom dictionary. It will save it as a CSV file.
Open the file you just downloaded and copy the words.
Open Notepad and paste in the words. Save it as a text file and give it a meaningful name (I went with FromWord).
Next, add it to LibreOffice
Open LibreOffice.
Go to Tools in the menu bar, then Options. It will open a new window.
Find Languages and Locales in the left menu, click it, then click on Writing aids.
You'll see User-defined dictionaries. Click New to the right of the box and give it a meaningful name (mine is FromWord).
Hit Apply, then Okay, then exit LibreOffice.
Open Windows Explorer and go to C:\Users\[YourUserName]\AppData\Roaming\LibreOffice\4\user\wordbook and you will see the new dictionary you created. (If you can't see the AppData folder, you will need to show hidden files by ticking the box in the View menu.)
Open it in Notepad by right clicking and choosing 'open with', then pick Notepad from the options.
Open the text file you created at step 5 in 'get your dictionary from Microsoft', copy the words and paste them into your new custom dictionary UNDER the dotted line.
Save and close.
Reopen LibreOffice. Go to Tools, Options, Languages and Locales, Writing aids and make sure the box next to the new dictionary is ticked.
If you use LIbreOffice on multiple machines, you'll need to do this for each machine.
Please note: this worked for me. If it doesn't work for you, check you've followed each step correctly, and try restarting your computer. If it still doesn't work, I can't provide tech support (sorry).
