OK SO this is like 60% the topic of my dissertation

(which I submitted like 2 days ago go me!!!)

BUT as @fallenangelvictorious said UVC are disinfecting wavelengths between about 200-300 nm and are really not a good time. Here is an article from 2008 where a bunch of medical students experienced serious side effects after exposure to a surgical disinfection lamp (254 nm) after only an hour!!. Now, recent studies have been looking into something called far-UVC which are wavelengths between 200 and 230 nm which seem to be non-toxic while still being antimicrobial. HOWEVER these are being marketed for use in events like these BUT some aren't filtered properly!! One study in people found that a lamp already on the market was inducing serious pre-carcinogenic markers which they thought was probably due to poor filtering of the light produced.

Now, the UV lights used here may well be these lamps, something like the SterilRay that the study I talked about before looked into. And, because these are events and whatnot and not scientists, they haven't got optical filters because those are not yet commercially available.

Anyway, all this to say, this is insane and something various people have been warning about for a while and something I have spent many hours ranting to my supervisor about because it felt like a matter of time. None of this is the attendees fault, and probably not even the event organisers because a lot of these companies say that this stuff is safe, and then don't make the research behind that accessible (even with university level access to paywall journals).

Please wear sunscreen and be so so so careful around UV, especially if anyone starts talking about UVC sterilisation - just get out of there, most sunscreens don't protect against UVC because it doesn't come through the atmosphere.

stay safe and I hope these people recover quickly because this is insane and they could probably sue.

So... a bunch of NFT grifters threw a party in Hong Kong this weekend and reportedly a bunch of attendees are now at risk of permanent eyesight damage because the promoters used unsafe lighting, and people are going to the ER...

Hi! I just want to bring up a concern of mine is that Fall Out Boy will be playing at Download Fest in June and one of the partners of Download is Barclays (an official BDS target specifically an exclusion and divestment boycott). I got reminded to check because another festival in the UK (Great Escape) happening in May has a lot of their lineup pull out when Barclays remains as a partner and/or signed a petition encouraging it to drop them (Check BDS’s Instagram). I just want to give a heads up and perhaps encourage to use our voices to make the band aware! Like with the whole Gabe situation, we should be able to hold them accountable/let them be informed/make it clear about our feelings.

I wanted to say something now, rather than have it be a whole thing blow up last minute or afterwards especially since nobody else has noticed yet or said anything. At least unlike what happened in March, we have two months ahead of time to tell them. Please anybody who plans on saying something, please don’t harass people! Obviously FOB are not the organizers of this festival, they don’t make the partnerships, I doubt they check who are funding these events, they are simply invited/paid to show, but they as a band should be aware of the fact one of the bigger partners of this festival is profiting and funding genocide and is considered a big enough target to be put on said boycott lists. Pressure and encourage FOB to drop their appearance and/or make a statement. Not only should this be about informing people we look up to and encouraging them to make moral choices, but also informing others about the cause and how many companies profit from Palestinian genocide!

FOB tends to respond to backlash and pressure pretty quickly ie: Pretending you know who was never on stage, never doing that whole NFTs thing, and pulling offensive merch. IK people will go to Meredith, but please remember don’t harass and act like she controls the band. She is an entirely separate person from the band. I get it, Meredith is the easiest person to get noticed from when it comes to being close to the band, but hold that responsibility over FOB’s head, not one of their wives. Anyways so sorry for this long wall of text, or if this ask of mine seems ridiculous and it’s not really a fun ask, I just wanted to say what I had in mind and be able to properly address concerns and hopefully see a change. Thank you. ❤️❤️❤️

Thanks for bringing this to my attention! Here and here are the posts on BDS’s instagram talking about the other festival this anon is referring to.

I don’t know what the best course of action is here/what the best way to contact them is/how to bring this to their attention so if anyone has any thoughts or input please weigh in!

Just for fun, I'm going to make an absolute WORST CASE scenario for Pokemon day (with sillies)

Pokemon decides to announce NFTs (they did put out a job listing for an NFT expert months ago)

Pokemon merch that's just more overpriced garbage. Shitty pastel tshirts that just have the pokemon logo stamped on the left breast area- $50, only goes to size XL.

Pokemon Go has way too much screen time for yet another Kanto fest

Pokemon Masters, Unite, and Cafe just won't end their trailers.

New tv show that's just a vague reality show about celebrities that liked Pokémon once, and it's more of an episodic celebrity biography show with one line or two about Pokémon. Not even fun ones, C tier at best. So, something like T@yl*r Sw*ft's boyfriend's football career, but one line about playing Blue for a few hours at his cousin's house.

Pokemon Home fees will increase

Pokemon Bank will close TODAY

Port of Red, Blue, Gold, Silver, Ruby, and Sapphire to NSO- you have to pay for online to access it over cloud- internet connection required, and for some reason you have to pay extra for them in a Pokémon exclusive expansion pass. No word of third versions. Does not include the events or Japan exclusives.

Black and White 1 remakes announced. It's chibi like BDSP, colors are dry and washed out, there's graphical errors in the trailer frames, they state BW2 specifically is not part of the remake, they promise tweaks to make the gameplay EASIER than ever. Parts of the game are made with AI and script rewritten by Chat GPT, with an error you spot easily in a trailer. Masuda has the remake game director's neck clenched tightly from the back. He looks at you and says "you will buy the games this time. This isn't a request." Japan pre-order exclusives are amazingly crafted Reshiram and Zekrom statues that even have light up tails and eyes, and also you get shiny versions of them only in the Japanese copies, US gets a cheap piece of paper with generic stock images of Pikachu and Charizard on it, everything is shiny locked for everywhere not Japan.

They tease a Legends game. You think it's going to be amazing, you think oh my god we're getting Legends Unova... wait, it looks Japanese, maybe LEGENDS CELEBI???...it's Legends......... KANTO, and it's the most gorgeous thing you've ever seen after the clear lack of care put into their non gen 1 games since the Switch launched. A selling point is, once again, no new Pokémon after the og 151 so older fans can enjoy it better. Your starters are Charmander, Charmander, and Charmander, you might encounter Bulbasaur and Squirtle in post game. Your job is to stop EEEVIL outsiders from the rest of the regions with their newer Pokémon from settling into Kanto. Johto is having an awesome party next door with all the regions invited, but there's been a convenient landslide blocking the only way over. It's just reskinned Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee. Professor Oak is your age and putting moves on your mom.

Features a mythical Pokémon based on depression that looks like a tiny salary man, comes with its own movie featuring Ash as a depressed Millenial realizing he peaked at 10. He has to get a job. Pikachu is dying of old age and Ash has to "grow up" and release him and all of his other still living Pokémon. It cuts to real life, and Pokémon was just a game he has been playing for years to cope with his parents' divorce and eventually his own with Misty, then May, then Dawn, then Serena, then Goh, etc. Ash's dad is finally revealed: it's Chris Pratt with bad cgi wrinkles, back with milk. They go to the arcade to play Mario to stomp on some................................................................................................................................................................................... KOOPAS.

"Well that's all. Oh wait, one more thing!"

Ed Sheeran and T@yl*r Sw*ft music video featuring 1 Pikachu in a frame that can be easily edited out, with a song not even about Pokémon. The song sounds like shit and is about another breakup.

There, the bar has been lowered to the floor. It cannot get worse.

A little something to start off my ✨#tesfest23✨

@tes-summer-fest

It's my first time participating this year 👉👈 I think I did it right

Prompt: arcane or beast

This is my Sirestia (snow elf OC) in their panther form.

The progess pics of the art is below.

do not repost or reuse without permission. do not use for ai, nfts, or merch.

The lighting is rather inconsistent just because of where I took the photos. The best picture is the finished one.

There's nothing better than dropping art of a character very few know of.

BOOOM! ZENIQ, RAMZIQ und SAFIR schreiben Geschichte

Spätestens seit dem Beginn der nie überwundenen Finanzkrise von 2008, eher aber schon seit der globalen Ausbreitung des Internet, befindet sich die Welt in einem Zustand wachsender Orientierungslosigkeit. Denn eines war von Anfang an klar: Mit dem Internet beginnt etwas vollkommen Neues. Doch was neu ist, ist längst noch nicht reif. Tatsächlich befinden wir uns in einem Zustand des Wartens. Warten auf Entwicklungen. Warten auf Anhaltspunkte und Orientierung. Warten auf Perspektiven. Insgesamt: Warten auf Erlösung aus einer zugleich übervoll und vakuumleer anmutenden Zeit, die wir seit dem 05.08.2023 guten Gewissens als Zwischenstadium oder Zäsur abhaken dürfen.

Am 05. August 2023 ereignete sich im Burj Khalifa Dubai City, dem höchsten Gebäude der Welt, nicht weniger als der Beginn einer Zeitenwende.

Das als „BOOM-Event“ angekündigte Treffen war viel, viel mehr als Boom: Am 05. August des Jahres 2023 wurde in Dubai Geschichte geschrieben.

Folgendes ist passiert:

Wurde ein bahnbrechendes NFT-finanziertes Projekt vorgestellt, das allein aufgrund seines Volumens die ZENIQ-Smartchain auf einen Schlag zur globalen Nummer 2 machen wird, Tendenz nach oben de facto unbegrenzt.

Das architektonische Meisterwerk wird in den bereits mit solchen reich gesegneten VAE realisiert werden, eine Oase der Schönheit. Im Mittelpunkt des Ensembles ein als riesige Perle konzipiertes Planetarium, das in Form und Funktion auf die große arabische Kultur abhebt, eine Hymne auf das Universum, den menschlichen Geist und seine unendliche Sehnsucht nach Ferne und Sinn, die sich im sternengesättigten arabischen Himmel befindet. Um die Perle herum Appartements und Hotels, sich architektonisch an die Wellen der umgebenden Dünen schmiegend, Tanz zwischen Himmel und Erde, Erleichterung und Gravitation in Einem. Schwerelosigkeit. Wir heben ab in einen Traum aus Tausend und einer Nacht. Abkunft und Wiederkehr, Nacht und Licht, Ying und Yang. Zuhören, Lernen, Erzählen, Musik. Staunen am Sein.

In der Tat symbolisiert dieses Projekt alles, wonach Menschen sich sehnen, erst recht in Zeiten der Suche. Ökonomisch repräsentiert es einen stetig wachsenden Wert, der auf den Prinzipien von Angebot und Nachfrage entsteht. Die ökonomischen Hard Facts bilden die gesunde Basis für alle weiteren Module, die im Einzugsbereich der Perle entstehen, darunter eine sensationelle, in den Boden eingelassene Mall.

Alles ökologisch, alles nachhaltig, alles klimaneutral.

Die Besucher des Boom-Events waren schon bei der Präsentation dieses Projekts verzaubert. Wie erst werden die Besucher sich freuen?

2. Das zweite Projekt, das auf dem SAFIR-Event vorgeschlagen wurde, hat jeden, der nicht gut saß, quasi vom Hocker gehauen. Es wird die Welt verändern, und zwar zum Guten. ENDLICH! Die ZENIQ-Plattform wurde von Anfang an so konzipiert, dass auch die anspruchsvollsten, größten und komplexesten Projekte auf ihr realisiert werden können.

Jetzt halten Sie sich fest:

Die BRICS-Staaten haben sich dank der konkurrenzlosen Leistungsfähigkeit der ZENIQ- Blockchain dazu entschieden, auf ihr die erste und bis auf Weiteres einzige goldgedeckte Kryptowährung der Welt zu implementieren.

Dies wird ungeheuerlich weitreichende Folgen haben: Zum ersten Mal in der Geschichte der Menschheit gibt es ein globales, dezentrales Transaktionssystem, das aufgrund seiner Golddeckung bei gleichzeitiger Blockchainbasierung auf den atmenden Mechanismen der Marktwirtschaft beruht und absolut sicher, unhackbar und nachhaltig ist. Immun gegen staatliche Intervention, denn Geld muss das Synonym für Freiheit bleiben. Für immer.

Damit haben die Initiatoren der Menschheit – ja, der ganzen Menschheit – einen historisch längst überfälligen Dienst erwiesen, der aber erst jetzt, wo die ZENIQ-Plattform die technischen Grundlagen bereitzustellen vermochte, umgesetzt werden kann.

Die Menschen werden wieder wissen, woran sie sind. Jeder darf an seinem Lebensglück feilen. Jeder darf frei sein und sich entfalten. Die Welt wird wieder vom Kopf auf die Füße gestellt, mit guten, bequemen Schuhen, die uns in eine gute, helle Zukunft tragen.

Die qualvolle Zeit der Zäsur ist beendet.

Freuen wir uns nun auf alles, was nun kommen wird.

Und danken wir jenen, die an der Realisierung dieses Werks beteiligt waren und sind. Danken wir ZENIQ, danken wir RAMZIQ und SAFIR. Danken wir allen Architekten der Hoffnung.

Fully agree with the last post but i dont think the nft vision loss is a good example since there is really no way anyone attending could have foreseen it as even a possible outcome AND full responsibility can and should fall onto the organisers

Like the injuries people sustained were a result of someone elses negligence and poor safety conduct

yeah going to an nft fest is stupid and highly mockable but there was nothing attendees could have done to prevent those injuries

Pt. 1 of the picrew orgy

So, I want to give you guys a comprehensive list of all the best picrews (in my opinion)

I really like these, and I would love to promote them.

So, let the picrew fest begin!

These are all amazing picrews, and I hope you guys will love them.

So the thing about crypto and NFTs is that there's a lot more underlying damage to the disabled community than just the Ape fest fiasco.

It's something I wish a lot of people would take a step back and think about and its exactly what kind of people are falling prey to these kinds of financial schemes. It's a lot of people who have gambling addictions and people who are already in debt and trying anything to get out of it.

Not all gambling addictions manifest with loot boxes and slot machines, gambling addiction can manifest in trading, stock markets, MLMs and yes- crypto. As we've seen time and time again since crypto and NFTs became the dystopian-horror- concept-made-reality of the week, the people who run these schemes are the only ones who make it big. It's not because they've made a profitable system that works exactly as they advertised, but because they often pull in investments by building themselves up as these crypto king idols who want "you! yes you!- to get rich and if you buy my coins I'll even let you in on my secret to success!" They will inevitably they pull the rug out from everyone who funneled money into their pockets under the guise of a get rich quick scheme. And thankfully some of the people who made these rug-pull schemes are now facing criminal charges but it's infuriating to see how many people continue to get away with it with little or no cost.

For example, internet darling Logan Paul made a creature collection gacha game called CryptoZoo using "original art" of animal hybrids as NFTs and the player can use Logan Paul's crypto currency to buy eggs to hatch more. This turned out to be a scam. The "original art" he promised were free Adobe stock photos of animals shoddily photoshopped together, and through further digging by a YouTuber named Coffeezilla, it was revealed that the developers that Logan Paul hired to create the game were renowned crypto scammers who have stolen millions of dollars between them. Logan obviously knew who he was working with and he was eventually pushed into giving refunds to every beta player. Of course this was not for the amount of money that they made and lost, which was well over 18 million dollars, but for the price of the crypto they bought to buy eggs which was 2 million. However there is a catch to the refund! The offer lasts only for a month and in order to claim that money back any victim who was scammed has to drop any pending lawsuits they have against him. He's counter suing his scammer team and saying he didn't know they were going to use CryptoZoo to rug-pull but let's be honest. It's Logan Paul. CryptoZoo is a good example of the way that gambling builds up on itself to dig people further and further into addiction, it's a gacha style game that promises new and unique prizes every time you buy, it only accepts one type of currency that you have to buy with real money, and that currency is an already existing crypto scam.

And people like Logan Paul get away with it in part to the legal grey area it all falls under, crypto currency is not insured by FDIC so if you get hacked and have your wallet keys stolen or it crashes because of a rug-pull, you're not getting that money back. It's also partly because of the "you dug yourself into this hole so you deserve to suffer" stance that a lot of people (and I'm ashamed to admit, including myself in the past) have adopted towards people who have fallen for crypto schemes.

Crypto is incredibly bad for the environment, we're all painfully aware of that fact. But it's not just ruining the planet, it's ruining the lives of people who have invested into it. It's not a victimless concept thats just full of annoying people who can get out any time they want to stop and not be grossly negatively affected financially. These are actual victims with a heavily stigmatized disability. Like other addicts it can be very hard to admit that they have a problem, some of them adopt the "crypto bro" lifestyle around their addiction and try to glorify it to make themselves believe it's just a fun hobby and not something that will bleed them dry and leave them in debt and anyone who tells them otherwise is a fudder, someone who uses fear, uncertainty and doubt (FUD) to delegitimize crypto in the attempt to make it crash.

One of the sad realities about gambling addiction is that there isn't really a way we've come up with to destigmatize it like how decriminalizing drugs has shown to help people with drug addictions. One of the measurable effects of that is that the amount of gambling addicts who seek help is devastatingly low compared to those who seek help for substance addiction, and the percentage of those who drop out of help programs are nearly double than those with substance addiction.

"People are often unaware they have gambling problems, even when they report having symptoms of problem gambling. We don’t exactly know why. The impact, though, is substantial. Only about 10% of individuals with a gambling problem ever seek treatment. As a comparison, the rate of seeking help among those with substance use disorders runs somewhere between 10% and 50%. It’s considerably lower than those experiencing depression and anxiety, 70% to 90% of whom will seek treatment. We also know that gambling disorder is one of the most stigmatized mental health concerns. We find that people tend to blame someone who has developed gambling problems, and view them as dangerous or untrustworthy. By contrast, someone experiencing depression and anxiety is less likely to be blamed for their problems. The other challenge is the rate at which people discontinue treatment before completing the standard course of therapy. For most mental health concerns, 20% who start a psychological treatment fail to continue in that treatment. By comparison, the dropout rate for gambling harms is nearly double: 39%."

-James P. Whelan from the article Millions of Americans are problem gamblers – so why do so few people ever seek treatment?

And I in no way want this to be taken as pitting one form of addiction against another. The discussion about drug and alcohol addiction has progressed so much in the last few decades and it's a good thing, we should be encouraging it more! However we should also be including gambling addicts in our advocacy because right now they are getting severely left behind.

I want crypto to die just as much as the next person, but I'm begging people to have a nuanced perspective on the catastrophic impact crypto has had for people who are gambling addicts. It should be proof enough that the online gambling and legalized sports betting apps that have risen in number and popularity since the mid 2010s and exploded during the height of the pandemic now accept crypto as payment options. These are two sides of the same systemic issue.

Ape fest was a total disaster, people were exposed to dangerous levels of UV radiation, thankfully no one's vision was damaged to the point of permanent blindness and hopefully no one develops any skin cancer. I truly truly hope the people who were affected and still hold a positive view of Bored Ape /YugaLabs wake up and realize that they have been taken advantage of and treated as mentally, monetarily, and now physically disposable.

Youre allowed to be upset and put off by the toxic culture that has developed around crypto and NFTs. You're allowed to hold people accountable for their actions. You're allowed to feel resentment towards them for what they're doing to the planet. You're allowed to not like people who are into crypto and NFTs. You're allowed to feel every feeling you have about everything ever, I cannot tell you how to feel about anything! But I need you to consider how we treat gambling addicts and what ableist rhetoric you're repeating the next time people get hurt physically or financially and you think, "Well, they deserved it."

Sorry for the wall of text.

Me Giving a Pressed Conference: our advocacy for the disabled must include the addict, the imperfect victim, those we despise; the right to autonomy and life cannot devolve into a popularity contest

Reporter I Hate (Not Sexual Tension): Does that include all the attendees of the Bored Ape NFT event who went blind

Me: *Blood streaming from my nostrils and eyes* david, it includes everyone

Stalker 2: Heart Of Chornobyl Hit With Another Delay, Now Launching In November

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/stalker-2-heart-of-chornobyl-hit-with-another-delay-now-launching-in-november/

Stalker 2: Heart Of Chornobyl Hit With Another Delay, Now Launching In November

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl has suffered yet another delay. The long-awaited post-apocalyptic shooter was slated to arrive on September 5 but will now launch on November 20 to give developer GSC Game World more time to address technical issues.

Additionally, the studio announced it will release its first-ever Developer Deep Dive video to give a comprehensive behind-the-scenes look at the game. The video will feature new gameplay footage, overviews of its world and locations, a full walkthrough of a story quest, and developer interviews. It is being made in collaboration with Xbox and will premiere on August 12. 

[embedded content]

The delay marks another bump in the road for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl. It was formally unveiled in 2020 after years of teases at the Xbox Games Showcase but has hit snags along the way, including garnering backlash for now-canceled plans for NFT implementation. The biggest disruption was Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, where GSC Game World is based, which upended development and forced the staff to relocate to Prague, Czech Republic (though some team members actively fought and sadly perished in the war). Despite all of this, the game has managed to come together, and we even played it during Summer Game Fest this year.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl launches on November 20 for Xbox Series X/S and PC. It will launch day one on Xbox Game Pass. If nothing else, this delay gives players more time to catch up with the Xbox re-release of the original games that arrived earlier this year.
