Babe, Wake Up! New Chorus OC just dropped!

This is my last post of the day, I swear. I've just been putting a lot of hours into Chorus and new OCs at the moment.

You're probably already familiar with Val (seen here in her 2079 Chorus guise, per her new lore), but have a look at the cutie to the right. That's Chet Reid, and he's Val's boyfriend in this timeline.

Full Name: Chet DeShea Reid Date of Birth: 17 March 2048 Affiliation: NUSA (former), NUS Army (former), Afterlife Mercs

Quick Chet Facts:

Chet identifies as straight. Val is his third actual relationship.

Chet was born in Ohio and moved to Night City after leaving the NUS Army.

Chet served in the Unification War. He is not proud of his service with the NUS Army.

Chet holds a special emnity for Rosalind Myers, whom he blames for the death of his friends.

Chet trained as a sniper in the Army. He claims to be the best sniper of any living Afterlife Merc.

Chet and Val met when they were hired for the same gig.

Chet has a sister, Monique, who he hasn't heard from in five years.

Full lore below the Blackwall

Chet Lore:

Chet DeShea Reid was born in Dayton, Ohio, in March 2048. His parents served in the NUS Aerospace Force, and were stationed at Wright-Patterson AFB. Chet surprised his parents by enlisting in the NUS Army in 2066 as a 19D Cavalry Scout. He was assigned to the 1st Cavalry Division (The First Team) based in Oklahoma. He primarily did border enforcement work.

Specialist Reid fought during the Unification War in 2069-2070. He earned numerous commendations and was promoted to Sergeant. He was recommended for promotion to Staff Sergeant, but elected to leave the Army in 2072 and move to the only place he knew that the NUSA didn't have its grubby mitts was Night City. Chet entered the only occupation he knew the second he arrived in Night City - Solo.

He proclaims to be the best sniper of any Afterlife Merc, and to be fair, he may be right. He keeps his girlfriend covered from behind the scope of his Nekomata, while she goes in and turns the enemy from single homogenous entities to so much cauterised sashimi. With their optical sensors linked, Chet can literally shoot the enemy through walls, so long as either he, Val or his customised Wyvern drone have eyes on.

His relationship with Valerie Ocampo-Gonzalez began in 2074. The pair met when they were hired by Regina Jones to kill a notorious Maelstrom ganger who terrorised the wrong victim, kidnapping a rich corpo's daughter and borging her out, before releasing the borderline cyberpsychotic 19-year-old high school graduate into the middle of Japantown, naked, afraid and high on just about every drug Maelstrom had access to.

The pair hit it off, and soon they were living together in an apartment in Megabuilding H10, about a level above V's apartment. While Chet had passing contact with V, they never really spoke, let alone knew that the other was an edgerunner. By 2079, he and his girlfriend of five years (by that point) were fairly well-known in the Afterlife, and had fallen into the scopes of Nightowl, a mid-league fixer who primarily organised jobs in and around Santo Domingo, succeeding Muamar 'El Capitan' Reyes, who became a 'used' car salesman.

Book Review 2023-2024

I'm a book lover through and through. I have a Kindle to help my old 32yr old brain and eyes comprehend the text better than it would be on paper as it;s fully customisable.

I've tried to get into adult fantasy the past couple of years but I have some beef. The books all feel the same. the formula is the same. They're written in such a primary way that's not giving anything fun towards the world building or the sense of real danger for these characters.

The part of the formula I have issue with comes from the fact that they're all written in hope to be scouted by Netflix and have their work turned into a TV Series and make $$$$$.

Fourth Wing went back and forth between decent fun writing and some scrap a 16 yr old wrote on Wattpad. SO MANY TIMES I have to put the book down to cringe at the shit ass writing, or push through the boring parts.

Speaking of boring. Oh my GOD. A COURT OF THORNES AND ROSES. I bought it for $2 sale on Kindle and I could barley push through after the part where she was in the cave as a hostage. Like shit it was so Airy Fairy bullshit I don't understand how Anyone could read it and think "I'm Obsessed"

My current favourite read is "The Cat and the City" it's a book about day to day life from the point of view of different people in Tokyo and how their lives intertwine each other. It's a beautiful read. I'm sad the author has only 1 other book. Another book I found good/decent was Nevernight by Jay Kristoff. His writing style takes a bit to get use to but once you're in you're IN. I'll read the Nevernight series one day.

For now I'm reading The Hunger Games trilogy. the first book was awesome, the second felt it was droning on with Katniss's apathetic inner monologue so I'm giving it a break before the 3rd book to read The Cat and the City.

Extreme-G

NA release: 27th October 1997

PAL release: 9th December 1997

JP release: 29th May 1998

Developer: Probe

Publisher: Acclaim

N64 Magazine Score: 87%

This is one I played a lot when I was younger. An extremely fast futuristic racing game on tron-like sci-fi motorbikes. It’s a proper competition-based racing game (where all the racers start at the same place, not an overtaking arcade racer) and has a bunch of weapons thrown into the mix.

The biggest criticism about Extreme-G is probably the handling, which does not manage to keep up with the speed of the bikes. To counter this, the developers added a bunch of things to ease the frustration. Walls don’t slow you down that much (they do slightly damage your shields) and the sides of the track have a kind of “energy barrier” that keeps you on the track. Respawning after falling off is also very quick. Even using the cheat to make the game even faster, making mistakes in races never feels annoying.

There are weapons dotted across the track that you can pick up, which come in lots of slight variations. These have a smaller immediate impact on racers than the likes of Mario Kart, but do whittle away shields (you also have a laser you have access to at any time to do extra damage to shields). However, the weapons are difficult to use effectively and ones like the cannons are more likely to harm you than your opponents.

Extreme-G has a good amount of tracks (compared to other racers at the time on N64, at least), although they do tend to blur a bit together due to the winding nature of them. There’s a track set around some lava games that’s the most difficult track in the game (by a massive margin), and the final track is a futuristic forest with Santorini-inspired buildings and UFOs flying around and looks absolutely gorgeous.

On top of the standard league mode, there’s time trial, practice and a shoot-’em-up mode where you have to blast drones. The multiplayer also has a battle mode in unique arenas, so there’s a good amount of stuff to do in the game.

Extreme-G is still a lot of fun, and manages to feel different to both Wipeout and F-Zero.

And, if nothing else, Extreme G is wonderful to look at. It marries Blade Runner and Alton Towers to awesome effect and, speed-wise, beats Wipeout at its own game.

- Tim Weaver, N64 Magazine #9

Remake or remaster?

An Extreme-G collection would be wonderful to see. Just do some minor improvements like properly implemented widescreen and customisable controls, perhaps even add weapon icons to the HUD. Unfortunately, IP owners Throwback Entertainment seem uninterested in the franchise, only re-releasing the poor PC port of the second game, lacking analogue steering or proper controller support.

Official ways to get the game.

There is no official way to get Extreme-G

Love at First Sight Notes

Written for the Yu-Ri-Oh! GL Dictionary - Doodle

Title: Love At First Sight Notes

Ship: Doodleshipping | Amane/Shizuka

Fandom: Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters

Word Count: 1,839

Rating: T

Prompt Entry: Doodle (verb). To draw or scribble absent-mindedly.

Tags: Alternate Universe - Everyone Lives/Nobody Dies, Attraction at First Sight, Mutual Attraction, Meet-Cute, Strangers to Friends to Lovers, Flirting, Confessions, Getting Together

From the very first minute Bakura Amane had stepped into the classroom, Shizuka’s attention went from her sheetwork and her stationary to her. Only her. Even as the teacher droned on and on about the new transfer student and to treat her nicely and yada-yada-yada. It was blah, blah, blah for Shizuka. In one ear and out the other all whilst she made goo-goo eyes at this girl in the front of the classroom.

That was up until her ears pricked on something very, very important. “Look, there is a free seat next to Kawai-san.”

Shizuka could have sworn her heart just leapt out of her chest. The way it burst, it gave her quite the shock as she watched - stunned - as the transfer student was pointed in her direction. She couldn’t believe her luck to have such a cute girl so close to her.

And Bakura Amane was a cutie.

She had such pale skin - like a ghost! - and her hair was the purest white - like snow! - and the way she customised her uniform? It was oh so daring, Shizuka couldn’t help but admire the little hints of the dark and the occult matched with the overt pink and blues of their preppy school uniforms, it was quite the combination. She loved how Amane accessorised with the black bow under the white, sailor collar of hers and the 80’s style fluffy socks and the little skull motif of her earrings that just poked out through the cascades of her hair. She was just a darling straight out of a fashion magazine.

She was really different to a lot of people Shizuka knew and she knew some weird ones thanks to her brother. Actually, now that she thought about it… What exactly were the odds of two people with white hair both sharing the family name “Bakura”? Shizuka couldn’t bring herself to ask, she felt like she was gawking and with all these clumsy flirty questions on her tongue? No way she could bring herself to talk to Amane.

Looking at her, however… Stealing glances and indulging in glimpses, that much Shizuka could handle. Shizuka tried to focus on her work but she only ever pretended to do it, twiddling with her pens to look busy but all she ended up doing was write Amane’s name over and over again the margins, like a child practising his hiragana for the first time.

Shizuka really, simply could not help herself. Her heart was pounding as she strove to get hints and pieces of what this girl sitting next to her may have been like. A switch was just flipped for Shizuka and so, she just had to keep shyly and sneakily shoot her shot. Over and over again, replacing strands of her hair behind her ear again just so her peripherals were unblocked but soon enough. The peripheries weren’t enough and Shizuka had to turn her head again.

Her flirting was not exactly coy as she looked at Amane at every chance and cool down she got. All because, well, it's just that Amane really was a sight for sore eyes, making Shizuka really glad that she had been able to get her operation. Amane was pretty like a model and eclectic in her own way, it really drew Shizuka in and then again for more and more.

Shizuka couldn’t keep her eyes off her but she tried, as best as she could. Which really wasn’t much but Shizuka, for one, thought she was being totally sneaky, fooling both Amane and the teacher. Yeah, that didn’t last long.

Amane giggled as she finally caught Shizuka’s eyes through the curtain of her long, brown hair. Shizuka could have sworn she saw fangs in the corners of Amane’s mouth, her lips were a nude pink but a teeny-tiny bit sparkly. She was definitely wearing lip balm, Shizuka deduced as she felt her own face go a much darker shade of pink than nude.

“It's good to meet you.” she said and she had a voice like silk.

Shizuka could have swooned but luckily, she kept her composure as she introduced herself back. It was only right, they were desk neighbours. Classmates. And soon enough, friends.

That last one was going to become the bane of the teacher’s existence. She never should have paired them up beside one another because the chatter did not stop once the breaks were over.

At first it was fine, Shizuka awkwardly waited until the first break of the day before she really got talking - and gushing - to Amane. They got all the things figured out. Star signs, blood types, and who their brothers were and Shizuka had been right. Their older brothers were friends, too. What were the odds, seriously? Little sister supremacy for sure was established and after that, all their favourite things.

As well as a few things they disliked. Like hospitals, for example. Amane shared how she had survived a car accident and Shizuka described her own medical issues which had resulted in eye-related surgeries. That, in of itself, just cemented their budding bond all the more, giving them plenty of room on either side for inside jokes they couldn’t really make around anyone else. Including their brothers.

But soon enough, over the course of a few more school days and school weeks, and hanging out on the afternoons and weekends and evenings in between, they were more than just fast friends. They were best friends and even sometimes girlfriends.

They hadn’t kissed or anything. Shizuka really wished they would kiss. She thought way too much about how it would feel, emotionally and physically. Not to mention it would demystify the nuances of what they felt towards each other but there was more to romantic relationships than just kissing.

It was intimacy and it was lingering glances and brushes of their hands. It was even being mistaken for a couple here and there, it was covering each other’s expenses at the burger joint Anzu worked at and little things like that. It was the exciting moments, too, but the more mundane moments which had Shizuka yearning for it to last forever. There was being besties like other girls were besties with each other but then there were these moments which were a little too intense, a little too charged that left Shizuka wondering.

It was sometimes a little hard to tell but Shizuka wanted to ask. Either to make it official or to clarify otherwise but she was pretty certain that the feelings went both ways. Amane just had a very drifty, dreamy personality, the type to flirt without realising it and if she did, then it was a joke meant to wind Shizuka, or whoever, up. Though, it was that lackadaisical twistedness of Amane’s that was so strangely charming.

So, once again, Shizuka found herself like she had all that while ago when she had first met Amane. She was staring again and Amane was flashing her smiles of her own as they tried to do their schoolwork but it wasn’t the right notes they ended up taking.

Shizuka thought she was being on the sly as she passed a folded up note of lined paper she had torn out the back of her workbook to Amane next to her. That gap wasn’t big but it felt huge and vulnerable as Shizuka gave it to Amane who accepted it without looking.

She unfolded the basic, square folds of the paper and read the note. The corners of her mouth quirked, pleased, as her eyes lit up. Amane, following on the trend of being sneaky, flicked her hand over and quickly scribbled up a reply. She waited a moment, until the teacher’s back was turned, and then passed the note back to Shizuka.

Shizuka accepted it way too greedily. She felt her heart pounding like a hammer against her ribs inside her chest as she did her best to not tear apart the note. The folds and creases were a little messier than they had begun with but the note inside was worth it.

I like you. Do you like me?

Shizuka’s handwriting was loopy and girly, she had practised hard for so long to make it pretty, meanwhile Amane’s was absolute chicken scratch by comparison.

Of course <3

Simple and straightforward was better than purple prose had been Shizuka’s philosophy when she had first scripted up her note to Amane but now she had to worry. She wasn’t certain if Amane had gotten the subtext, Shizuka began to draw over the note, interweaving between the blue lines of the page. Paying way more attention to it than the Japanese literature class their teacher was trying to teach. Even Shizuka could feel the lovey-dovey aura of a schoolgirl with a crush emanate off her as she drew flowers and hearts and bows.

After a couple minutes of idling away with her pen and paper, Shizuka folded it up and passed it onto Amane. Amane accepted it and so began the rally. She passed it back to Shizuka promptly and her reply had Shizuka kicking her legs underneath her desk.

Would you be my girlfriend?

Of course <333

And from there, the just wanted to chatter on and on and on. They passed the note to and fro, it becoming more wrinkled and drawn on with each volley between either girl. The pen ink that scrawled on the paper now spanned black, blue, and red. There were love-hearts and flowers, bows and skulls, drawings of eyes both realistic and anime to adorn their letters. Their original messages long since written and drawn over as space became too precious to waste. It was atrocious but it was theirs.

Shizuka and Amane were both getting caught up in this aura of theirs. It was as if the rest of the classroom didn’t exist amid their little confessional notes. She said yes, she liked her and her liked she. It was amazing, they were both giddy, they would have been playing footsies if they could have, the squirming and the giggly, disrupting the whole classroom.

Of course, eventually, it drew the ire of the teacher. She was the exact one who had set them up beside one another when Amane had been the brand, spanking new transfer student. A novelty. And now, she was the one who was breaking them up - and their silly little notes, too, without even reading them she tore them up.

“Kawai-san, I expect better of you.” she huffed. “Detention for the both of you.”

Shizuka giggled, blushing. She glanced at Amane who gave her a tiny wave with her hand from across the classroom now that they had been split up but it was fine. Detention was just yet more quality time they could spend together later, where they could clean up and collect the remnants of their love notes and all their silly, cutesy doodles. Important souvenirs of their little classroom confession - and yet more to talk about way down the line.

I am reading 'The Terraformers' by Annalee Newitz.

So I've been reading this fascinating book lately: The Terraformers by Annalee Newitz. It's set far far far into the future where private corporations can even terraform planets very specifically into anything anyone wants. The specific planet this book is set on is Sask-E (or Sasky), which is marketed by Verdance as a "genuine pre-Pleistocene experience". Which heavily restricts the bodies people are allowed to "wear" there because bodies are extremely customisable and people can even live remotely through perfectly humanoid drones.

That bit about bodies is especially noteworthy because the book also has a lot of different ideas of "personhood". Lifeforms are literally made through a bio-mechanical process and decanted with intelligence. There's something corporations use called the "Intelligence Assessment" rating to determine what constitutes a "person" but everyone agrees it's nonsense and calls them InAss ratings. The main character, Destry, has a partner named Whisper that's a moose who is determined to be a Mount; their decanting process made Whisper only able to say monosyllabic words, which Destry agonises over. There are also "Blessed" who can only speak about their role (like shopkeepers). There are naked mole rats, moose, cows, robots, and more designated to be People because of how they were made to be intelligent. One cow person in the cast is traumatised—and genuinely so; it's not played for laughs in the slightest—by coming across a dairy farm full of cows with all the intelligence of livestock. The characters figure this is part of the "genuine pre-Pleistocene experience" and believe this is morally repugnant to the highest degree to make cows like this.

There's a bit later on where workers are pressured to figure out a train system for the main continent of Sask-E. Given that the world is still being terraformed and the characters are against so much as lighting a campfire in the name of carbon neutrality lest the world be tipped off its delicate balance, they determine that train tracks are unfeasible because the terraforming process means the tracks won't even be consistent let alone finished before the terraforming is done and the tracks will be useless. They come up with an alternative: flying trains that use a gravity mesh to fly.

At the council meeting where this is proposed, one character is against using a gravity mesh on anything that isn't a person. A moose in the meeting is against making anything that isn't a person at all. They decide that only people can truly serve the needs of other people by optimising the routes between cities. Plus, the flying train people can choose to do whatever they like; like the Boring Fleet responsible for carving out chambers for the volcano, they'll find it satisfying to do jobs their bodies excel at. Other characters aren't concerned that the Flying Train Fleet will be averse to designing optimal routes and travelling to hundreds of cities across the globe. Unanswered questions like "How will every city weigh in on their transit needs?", "How will we know when new trains, routes, or stations are needed?", and more can be answered by the train people themselves.

They didn't get the seal to knock in the vid, although it did bark a bit. I'm willing to believe that seals can knock and I'd argue that some seals (harbour seals for example) are less surprising than a walrus. They are smaller and easier to transport to random locations. Elephant seals are probably equal on the Spanish Inquisition scale because of the size.

Both are less surprising than fairies because fairies are easy to make, either by dressing up as one or employing simple, practical effects. You could put a really good one together with a decent puppet on fishing wire, a cheap drone and some LEDs. Or by customising one of the flying fairy toys on Amazon to make it look more realistic. It would admittedly be hard to get it to knock without crashing it but not impossible.

At close range, nobody can fake a walrus.

There’s no way..

What is LiDAR and How Drone Surveying Revolutionises Data Collection

Technology continues to transform the way we gather and analyse data. One of the most exciting advancements lies in LiDAR. But what is LiDAR, and why does it matter? Short for Light Detection and Ranging, LiDAR uses laser technology to measure distances with incredible precision. By emitting laser pulses and analysing their reflections, LiDAR creates detailed, three-dimensional maps of the surveyed area.

LiDAR Solutions Australia integrates this cutting-edge technology with drone surveying to deliver unmatched accuracy and efficiency. Using drones equipped with LiDAR sensors, we scan vast or hard-to-reach areas quickly. This method captures topographic details, vegetation, structures, and even underground features with exceptional clarity.

Understanding what is LiDAR helps highlight its versatility across industries. From construction and mining to agriculture and environmental management, LiDAR provides vital data that aids planning and decision-making. Paired with drones, it becomes an essential tool for mapping, monitoring, and inspecting sites with minimal disruption to ongoing operations.

Drone surveying offers significant advantages over traditional methods. By covering large areas in a fraction of the time, drones reduce costs and improve safety. Surveying rugged terrain or dangerous environments no longer poses a challenge. Instead, drones deliver precise, real-time data without putting workers at risk.

How To Get The Best Value For Your Wedding Videographer Price?

Weddings are once-in-a-lifetime events, and capturing the essence of your special day through video is an investment that will last forever. However, price is often a key factor in the decision-making process when considering a wedding videographer.

While you may want to ensure the best quality, getting the best value for your budget is equally important. If you want to maximise your investment, here are some strategies to ensure you get the best value for your wedding videographer in Auckland prices.

1. Clearly Define Your Videography Needs

Before you start browsing wedding videographers, it's essential to define what you need clearly. Wedding videography services vary widely, from simple documentary-style recordings to cinematic productions with drone footage and elaborate editing. Understanding the type of video that best suits your vision will help you navigate different pricing structures.

If you're looking for a high-quality film with various special effects and cinematic elements, expect the wedding videographer to be on the higher end. On the other hand, if a straightforward, edited video of your ceremony and reception is sufficient, you can often find more budget-friendly options.

Tip: Discuss with your partner what kind of videography you envision—whether it's a full-length film, highlight reel, or something else. Knowing your needs upfront will help you communicate clearly with potential videographers and avoid unnecessary costs.

2. Conduct Thorough Research

Take the time to research and compare videographers in Auckland. Start by browsing their portfolios, paying attention to the style, quality, and types of weddings they’ve filmed. Reviewing client testimonials and asking for referrals can also provide valuable insight into their professionalism and the overall experience they offer.

While it's tempting to go with the first videographer you come across, doing your research allows you to compare wedding videographers' prices in Auckland and make an informed decision. Look for professionals whose work aligns with your expectations rather than simply choosing based on price.

Tip: Check wedding-specific forums or social media groups for recommendations. These platforms can provide firsthand experiences from couples who have hired videographers in the past.

3. Negotiate Your Package

Most wedding videographers offer various packages, often including a set number of hours, multiple camera angles, editing, and more. However, only some packages will be necessary for some couples. If you’re on a budget, consider negotiating a more tailored package that fits your needs.

For example, you can lower the overall cost if you're satisfied with one camera operator instead of two or only need highlight footage instead of full-length edits. By customising your package, you can reduce the wedding videographer prices without compromising quality.

Tip: Be open about your budget from the start and inquire about any flexibility in pricing or available discounts.

4. Consider Off-Peak Discounts

The wedding industry operates in seasons, with the most popular months being warmer, particularly in the summer. If your wedding is scheduled during the off-peak months or on a weekday, you can secure a discount on your videography services.

Wedding videographers typically have fewer bookings during these times, so they may offer reduced rates to fill their schedules.

Tip: If you are flexible with your wedding date, consider planning during off-peak months for potential savings on wedding videographer Auckland prices.

5. Be Aware of Additional Costs

While most videographers provide a general quote, additional fees may not be included in the initial price. For example, travel costs, overtime, or special requests may incur extra charges. To ensure transparency and avoid surprises, always ask for a detailed breakdown of the final price and ensure you understand what is and is omitted.

Tip: Clarify all potential additional costs in advance, such as charges for extended filming hours, travel, or special editing requests. This will help you stay within your budget and avoid unexpected expenses.

6. Choose a Videographer You Trust
