#Loopback

[churchofoverlord]

HI FRIENDS, HAVE A DRABBLE SPUN OFF SOME TFONE IDEAS I WAS DISCUSSING WITH A FRIEND

Mild . . . spoilers? Kinda? Not really? Maybe? Anyway, whenever I write I tend to use a song I like for inspiration/vibes. Linked at the bottom. 😘

The Details for Tomorrow

Loopback worried her lip as she checked the address coded into the chip she’d received. It couldn’t have been true. It was too good to be true. To be recognized for your talents outside of your job and elevated to a higher status . . . no. Not her. It couldn’t be. Her vermillion plating rustled anxiously.

And yet the shimmering seal of the Primes adorned the bottom of the message. She poked at the hologram again, just to make sure it wasn’t a distortion, a glitch in the display software. The golden symbol fizzed back into its proper shape immediately after she withdrew her digit.

Swallowing as she walked, she almost missed the shadowed figure that swept her into an alleyway seven blocks from the place she’d been asked to meet. The bot pressing her against the wall was smaller, but their forlorn optics held her frozen with their urgency and concern. Loopback opened her mouth to ask what was going on, but the other put a digit to her lips to silence her, then looked up and down the alley in a panic.

Finally the other bot removed their servo from the shuttle’s face, practically shaking as they whispered, “I’m not hurt, and I don’t need help. I just need you to listen. Sentinel Prime is going to invite you to dinner. Do not go with him. Trust me. You think it’s wonderful, the most lavish, pampered life you could ever live. But it’s all a lie. H-he’ll ruin you. Just like he ruined me.” They shrank back, pulling their shroud tighter around their shoulders as they realized they had raised their voice too loud.

Loopback squinted in confusion. “What are you talking about?”

“Shh! Shhhh!” the other bot urged. “She’ll *hear* you! She hears everything . . .” they shuddered.

“I don’t understand,” the shuttle frowned. “He’s offering me a job as his personal detailer.”

“It won’t be enough for him,” they replied, swallowing thickly. “Nothing will ever be enough for him. He sees you as his next shiny toy. A pretty plaything. Once he’s done with you, he’ll make you disappear.”

Finally it clicked into place and Loopback’s expression turned to one of disgust as she backed away and toward the exit of the alley. “You’re Pyreclamp. You should be ashamed of yourself! How dare you touch me! How dare you insult our Prime! After what you did to him?”

“Please! No! It’s not like that!” Pyreclamp begged, reaching for the shuttle in desperation. But it was too late. Loopback had left, the smell of singed dust left behind in the wake of her afterburners.

The smaller bot winced and shrank back. They had failed. Again. This time they didn’t even flinch when Airachnid dropped in front of them.

“I’d give you another warning, but I think at this point you’re only embarrassing yourself,” the bodyguard sneered. “How many times will it take before you realize none of them are ever going to listen?”

Pyreclamp curled up on the ground and pressed their cheek to the cold, slimy wall beside them. “Why don’t you just dump me on the surface already?” they asked bitterly.

Airachnid huffed. “Because Sentinel finds the footage of your antics entertaining.”

Alone once more, the bot shivered, trying to ignore the thought of the hopeful orange shuttle that had no idea the pain that was coming for her.

—————

Loopback slid into the private booth, nervously fiddling with the lucky detail brush in her subspace. And, to her dismay, she jumped when the curtain was swept back and Sentinel Prime himself jauntily slid in beside her.

“Just the gal I wanted to see!” He said cheerily, wrapping an arm around her shoulders. “I cannot believe we had such a skilled beautician hiding among the ranks of our transport fleet. I was just completely blown away with the work you did on your colleagues at the depot. I’ve never seen such a well-groomed crew of shuttles!”

“Th-thank you, sir. Sentinel Prime, sir.” Her cheeks burned dark and hot at the praise.

“So tell me, Loopback, is aesthetics just something you do as a hobby? Or is it more of a passion?” His voice dipped lower as his servo slipped from her shoulder to the leading edge of her wing. His smile was soft as he leaned into her audial. “Because based on your answer, I may have a special proposition for you, my dear.”

—————

The brand bit sharply as it seared her wing. Loopback grunted and gritted her teeth bitterly as her plating hissed. But she didn’t scream. She vented evenly, letting the physical pain balance out her mental agony. Her helm shook slightly as she raised it to look to her new leader. The one who had destroyed the mech who had first destroyed her. Destroyed them all.

“Never again,” she swore to Megatron. “Never again will I be Deceived.

maybe watching that one 90s magical girl anime I used to watch in middle school will bring me joy! says Ace! the one I used to be embarrassed about liking because it was a Girly Thing! says Ace! directly before finding out that somehow in the span of seven (??) years a massive chunk of it has become LOST MEDIA HELLO

I cradled tiktok in my arms as it died. I watched my likes disappear, my comments, my reposts, my friends. The rest of the world just disintegrated under my finger tips and the only thing I can do is mourn. There's not even a wake, or a funeral to attend. There's only disconnection 💔💔

Enhancing Network Reliability: The Key Components of a Robust Infrastructure

When it comes to setting up a reliable and efficient network infrastructure, components like MPOMTP adapters, cassettes, patch cords, loopbacks, and patch panels play a crucial role. These components are essential for ensuring seamless data transmission, network connectivity, and troubleshooting capabilities in various networking environments.

MPOMTP adapters, also known as MPO/MTP adapters, are widely used for high-density fiber optic connectivity. They enable quick and easy connections between multiple fibers, making them ideal for applications that require high bandwidth and scalability. Cassettes, on the other hand, provide a centralized and organized way to manage fiber optic connections within a network, enhancing overall efficiency and maintenance.

Patch cords serve as the physical link between network devices, allowing data to travel from one point to another. They come in various lengths and types to accommodate different connectivity needs. Loopback cables are used for testing the transmission capability and signal quality of network equipment by creating a loop within the system.

Patch panels act as the central hub for connecting network devices to the rest of the network, simplifying cable management and reducing clutter. They provide a convenient way to monitor, troubleshoot, and reconfigure network connections easily.

In conclusion, understanding the functions and importance of components such as MPOMTP adapters, cassettes, patch cords, loopbacks, and patch panels is essential for designing and maintaining a robust network infrastructure. By incorporating these components effectively, businesses can ensure reliable connectivity, high performance, and streamlined network operations.

You know when someone asks why Miko is my favorite tf character and not someone like Optimus or Starscream. I could give a bs smart answer like I relate to her, she has great themes that can be explored, I randomly had hyperfixated on her, or Miko is one of the best human characters in this fandom. Which don't get me wrong it is true; that's a part of the reason she's my favorite, but it's not the main. If I'm being completely honest with myself she's my favorite because........

Miko is fucking crazy man. Like absolutely mental.

Let's go down the list here:

First day with the autobots she saw Bulkhead rip out a vehicons guts right in front of her and thought it was cool.

Convinced Bulkhead to try indirectly murder Breakdown.

Went for an axe and tried to fight Soundwave's tentacle.

Killed hardshell. (This is a given)

When she learned about the autobots leaving to cybertron she immediately made plans to move there. Which isn't really crazy but I think it's really sweet and I wanted to bring it up.

Regularly sneaks along missions she knew are extremely dangerous and have proven to be dangerous in the past.

Threatened overlord of the decepticons Megatron to his face.

Killed four vehicons. (Which btw I did not know about for the longest time wtf?? I get their canon fodder but still.)

Helped send Soundwave to the shadow zone. Which to her and the other kids knowledge at the time were he would slowly starve to death.

Just the general love of extreme violence.

If Starscream and the other vehicons hadn't fled she would have 100% tried to kill them in the apex armor.

In the comics Miko asked if they could "do it again" after she freed Raf from mind control and he had sent decepticons out of the base through a loopback from the ground bridge.

Everyone in the fandom collectively agreeing Miko getting a gun would single handedly cause the destruction of the entire state of Nevada.

There's some other things but I forgot but I don't remember what. (>:[)

And before people start saying "Oh she has a canon reason for this and she's really not aware of the consequences"-

Shut up.

She's a little murder chaos goblin to me and I WON'T HAVE ANY OF YOU TAKE THAT FROM ME!!!!! /Joke obviously.

Client-side domain blocking on Macs

If you're on a Mac and you want to waste less time on the internet, the old way to keep yourself from accessing an addictive website was by writing a loopback entry to /etc/hosts, but on Macs this seems to fail for (some, not all) IPv6 sites, possibly if they use HSTS.

Anyway, here are the updated instructions:

#Only need to run once

sudo mkdir -p /private/etc/resolver

# Block example.com

echo "nameserver 127.0.0.1" | sudo tee /private/etc/resolver/example.com

FINALLY! Found a way to get stemoscope audio off my phone

the export button was freed from behind the camera but the file was only playable through google drive- audacity came to the rescue with loopback recording so I can actually get recordings off my phone.

Don't expect these very often though, I post art mainly, tell me what you think! Very nervous to post this ><

[isatswap]

(isat spoiler, its technically act 4 i think? but ill say full game just to be safe)

also this is a short one as well because uhhhh something something idea drought

Mouth Shut

TTOS version of Bad Touch from ISAT

(Mirabelle is here, probably pondering what favor to ask the Tree.)

Loop:

"Mira."

(Stay silent.)

"Hi Mira, I need to do the Favor Tree thing!"

Mirabelle: ... Mirabelle: Oh! Loopie! I didn't see you there! Mirabelle: Anyway, I was looking at the Favor Tree? Isn't it beautiful?

Loop: (Cue joke.) "Yeah, it is."

Mirabelle: Glad you agree!

Loop:

"One could say it's so beautiful..."

(Stop there.)

Mirabelle: Uh huh???

Loop: "...it's LEAFing me speechless."

Mirabelle: Pfft! You're so silly, Loop!

(You both laugh.)

(You wait for her to ruffle your hair.)

(Why do you have to wait? Why do you have to wait? Why do you have to wait?)

Loop: (...)

(Keep waiting.)

(...)

(Suddenly you realize a very basic thing.)

(She will never do it. She will never be your friend. You will be stuck here forever.)

(Stuck in your yearning.)

(Unless you're the one that breaks the cycle.)

(She could be your friend. She is already, basically. You can confide in her. Tell her about the loops.)

(You just have to say it.)

(You just have to say it.)

(You just have to say it.)

(You just have)

Mirabelle: Hey, Loopie, whats wrong?

(?)

(!!!)

(You haven't noticed but)

(you're crying.)

(Mirabelle quickly removes her hand.)

Mirabelle: I'm sorry! I really am! I didn't know you hated touch this much.

(!!!)

(Wait, no! Please! That's not it!)

(She thinks you hate her now!!!)

(Just say it, stupid! Stop crying! Just )

<Short loopback>

Loop: "Hi Mira, I need to do the Favor Tree thing!"

Mirabelle: Oh! I'm in your way then, aren't I? I'll skedaddle then, see you at the Clocktower!!!

<Moving to the Favor Tree>

Siffrin: ...

Loop: "..."

Siffrin: What was that about? Can't even tell her, huh?

Loop: "..."

Siffrin: And I thought you were friends.... Can't hide the truth from your friends, you know! Otherwise what kind of friend are you?

Loop: "Shut up."

Siffrin: ...

(He, surprisingly, does.)

Siffrin: I get it. It's hard to share your struggles. But you can't run from it forever. Mark my words. Siffrin: ...That's enough fee-fees talk from me. Siffrin: ... Siffrin: You also got a Memory! I'm not gonna do the usual thing. You wouldn't want me to.

Siffrin: Anyway, how can I help you on this wonderful loop?

Memory of Weakness.

"Can't even say anything." [Reduces all Skill damage of the wearer by 50%]

I was talking with some others on my TWST server about how Vil and Neige's dynamic doesn't work. One of the members pointed out something that I never thought of before. The NRC team should've WON the VDC. Hear me out.

Part of the problem with that arc is that Vil never truly realizes how fruitless his one-sided rivalry with Neige actually is. Vil and Neige's dynamic reminds me a lot of Lance's dynamic with Keith from Voltron. They both fall flat for the same reason—neither Vil or Lance truly realize that they're using their rivalry as an outlet for their personal insecurities and thusly never grow as people.

While Vil knows that he's in the wrong, hence why he says that he's "ugly" when he overblots, the narrative goes out of the way to validate him. By making him lose by a single vote on Rook's part, it casts him as a victim, feeding into his mindset even more. He can go, "Look, look! I lost. It's all Neige's fault. He must pay for stealing for what is rightfully mine." That makes him loopback to square one and never grow as a person.

Instead Vil should've gotten everything that he wanted. He should've won the competition, but it doesn't feel like the sweet victory that he thought it would be. That's when he realizes that wasn't the validation he was actually looking for, and he was only using Neige as an outlet for his own demons. He apologizes to Neige for how he was acting, which Neige forgives him for.

I’m curious about your inv design!! He has little mandibles, it looks like, and very different anatomy from the other slugcats. Is there any particular thoughts or ‘lore’ there?

Yes actually! Before I get into lore stuff I'm going to tell you that they aren't mandibles, they are little bone outcroppings that spider from his back, I haven't drawn him from behind before but you have gotta trust it's like an X patterning across his back.

NOW

lore time

This requires some general knowledge of my AU(muahahaha… I'll get to inv in a second), basically timeline of it starts with Saint being created, he was made as a solution to the triple affirmative. I know some don't like this explanation for Saint, but I think it is too interesting of a concept to not put into my headcanons.

Anyways all the stuff happens, saint becomes partially an echo but when he tries to ascend and fails, it loops

Loops back to a random place(saint starting location)

This continues through time and Saint meets all of the main scugs and befriends a majority of them(exceptions being survivor and inv)

as Saint gets through all of them, most slugs are dead, and they are left alone in the snow.

NOW I SWEAR THAT WILL BE RELEVANT

Interesting enough, we go to spearmaster now

They are sent on their quest to get to 5P, basically getting no sleep(mix of genetic modifications messing with sleep and general insomnia), on their relatively far quest to get to the iterator

They invented the concept of Inv on their quest(this also included my old Nightcat headcanon but might not be after Watcher comes out) Spearmater created it as a form of escapism basically with their drawings.

Is this concept incredibly stupid, yes

does it make me feel joy, yes

ANYWAYS

so back to Saint, he worked with the power, enough times of looping this overcharges his karma, and its power expands, the loop from just Saint to the world itself

I refer to this as a Karmic impurity, but I can get into that later.

this loopback causes Saint incredible amounts of strife, looping himself back over and over reliving the cycles, dropping himself in with the ones he was attached to(the main campaigns) He had to try and bring it together, all of the people, all in one place and time

The Karmic Imbalance allowed this, this is where Inv comes in.

Saint's haste and excitement, caused a fracture, Spearmaster's little character that was invented became real, Inv was given life, and he and Spearmaster have vague familiarity, a sort of deja vu whenever they see and talk to each other (not that Spearmaster or Inv talk much)

Inv's weird appearance is a testament to his creation, he looks strange because he IS strange, he and Saint are both anomalous, but Inv has a more visual distinction.

anyways

thats my ramble on Inv hope you enjoyed the whole 2 people reading this :]
