It just feels like something she'd pull, ngl

WAIT A MINUTE!!!

in What Do You Say when Tom is like "nah I'm shopping for myself" and proceeds to be super awkward, it reads like just a normal goof in a fumbling, tripping-over-your-words conversation with an estranged ex you still have feelings for because we know he IS there for his kid, he said as much before. getting this toy for Tim is the whole point of him going to the mall.

but while listening to this for the ???th time, i realized he really IS shopping for himself! he only thinks it's for his kid because Wiggly's weird hypnotism/influence is telling him to want the doll, and that's how his mind is rationalizing it—he wants, no, he NEEDS this toy, so it must be for his kid, because why else would he want one? but it's really for him.

So I figure his "I'm shopping for himself" is either a mistake on his part that does some clever foreshadowing, or it's him still feeling close enough to Becky to be honest with her about it (while also doing some clever foreshadowing), which is honestly pretty cute, even if he immediately gets self conscious and awkward about it, lol.

Not only does Simon get to live his life now feeling fulfilled and accepting his existence and worth. But Betty gets to move on. her wish is fulfilled. She has forgiven herself, she has forgiven Simon. She’s saved him and now she’s being reincarnated restarting free to make new decisions hopefully with the lessons of this existence etched into her bones. perhaps in the calm and comfortable life on and apple orchard.

— So, it's really, really, really over, right? — Yeah. — Or maybe not. It can't end just yet, while he is still around.

Creating Mayan Glyphs Using Blender - AI Training Data

While there are plenty of images of real-world Mayan glyphs, many of these are not in publicly available database systems. Therefore, in order to create a Mayan Glyph translation tool that can work in real-world, carved and moulded, settings you need to get creative.

I first created M-AI-AN a couple of years ago using convolutional neural networks to classify basic single form glyphs. It was successful, but was limited to black and white/greyscale images of printed glyphs.

Now, after a few years experience under the belt, I thought it would be good to try again. This time, thanks to the power of masking modifiers, and the Python control line, in Blender - plus the use of transformer models to make multi-glyph classification a walk in the park. @roxcake - you will be happy to know that the model uses distinct square "patches" of the image to help classify, now using multi-head attention instead of 5 seperate CNNs.

Essentially, a 3D setup is used to create a vertex mask on to a plane, with glyph images in pure black-and-white format:

The Python script then effectively reads all of these images from a folder, and iterates across all of them, saving them into a specified folder - ready to feed the machine.

I am currently considering changing the light source location and image textures at random as well, but due to the number of glyphs I create with the multi-affix system, it isn't feasible to create multiple iterations per glyph without destroying my hard-drive!

What I was expecting when I started this little project: lots of interesting motifs to draw, having to figure out symmetry in odd objects

What I was not expecting: archaic Sumerian pictograph and proto-cuneiform deep dive

Finally beat the Returnal DLC so have some screenshots :D thought the story couldn't get more devastating but I was wrong :))))))))

Last character I drew was Akashi, and the last game I played was Chants of Sennaar. He'll be fine. Knowing him, he'd probably do better at it than me.

The last character you drew/wrote about is now stuck in the last game you played. How screwed are they?

The detective work I just had to do to translate back a line of Void Speak because I forgot to save the translation the first time around!

Someone on the Gravity Falls Reddit got the book already.

It's as expected. I haven't seen spoilers but the comment section hints at stuff.

I have a feeling that there's going to be many a fan of the doritio at the three book signings (San Diego, Seattle, Portland. Tickets on Sale on the 17th, link on Alex's twitter) that are either going to laugh, be slightly traumatized, or just get disgusted.

Me? I'm going to start building up my defenses as the due date to the version of the book I ordered draws closer.

Give me a sentence to make into gem glyph!

I will doddle a Sapphire saying it.
