A Knight's Test

After the dam had bust and the outburst with Ruby, Jaune looked down at the water and the bridge. The screams of the people still echoing in the ears mixing with the sound of the water, as mist would start to rise and the ghostly whine of horse echoes. Jaune stands up, his face twisting in shock and turning to the other 3 before settling on Weiss.

Jaune: "Weiss, take Juniper and go with the others after Ruby."

Weiss: "Wait, what do you mean we should be going together?"

Jaune: "Weiss I'm begging you go with the others and take Juniper with you to find Ruby. She needs you more than me right now."

As he says thus Juniper would get close nuzzling against him

Jaune: *Pets her* I know, girl, but right now they need your speed and nose. I'll catch up when I can."

Weiss: "Jaune, are you -"

Jaune: * turns towards her face in anger* "GO NOW! He only wants me anyway, and there's no chance he'll let you interfere."

Weiss would approach Juniper as a small glyph that appears to shoot out a chain to create makeshift reins. Yang and Blake would hop on Juniper's back as the four of them would ride off. Juniper would call back jaune, wanting to stay at his side, but knows she cannot.

Jaune: *Turns to the mist as he would draw sword getting into a stance as rain droplets start to come down* "Come on....I'm right here."

From the mist, another whine of a horse is heard as walking ethereally across the water appears a knight clad in black armor with a horned helm on horseback. The horse snorts puff of smoke as the knights visor act as it eyes showing that glowing red pupils at Jaune

???: "Finally done running, Rusted Knight?"

Jaune: "Yes...I am."

???: "Do you know who I am?"

Jaune: *Lowers his stance slightly* "I do...well, I know the legends...the stories, but I didn't want to believe. I thought it was just my mind playing tricks, but I need to accept what I'm looking at."

???: "Then say it. Say my name."

Jaune: "....Spirit of Chivalry!!"

A bright flash of lightening lightens up his form as azure flames would appear casting the spirit's grisly and dark form in the light of a phantom.

S.O.C: "Indeed I am he, and who are you vagrant knight? You who lost his path clinging to the past acting a shield knowing in truth its nothing more than your shackles? Tell me vagrant...WHO ARE YOU?"

Jaune: "I....I'm Jaune Arc, only son of Nick Arc. A family of warriors that served as guradians and knights for generations."

S.O.C: "Ah...a legacy then. However, a knight doesn't stand before me. What I see is nothing more than a coward boy playing fantasy. There is hope, though, for I see a spark no matter how small or how fleeting I shall test you to see if you possess strength."

Jaune: "Strength...what strength? I've trained and pushed myself to improve so I could protect everyone! Yet.....yet when I thought I reached a good spot, it all slipped through my fingers. I wasn't strong enough....I never was."

S.O.C: "Foolish Boy!" *His horse would stomp its hoof as lighting would crash down* "Strength does not come from physical form alone, blind reliance on it shows your weakness. You may be dammed like me, faltering when the crucial moment comes....I've seen countless disappointments like this, and all met their end with my blade."

*As he says this, multiple warriors and knights would appear in the mist looking on the new victim of their lord's trial*

S.O.C: "Be it blade or shield, lance or ax, no matter how grand or well made they are it holds no power if the weilder lacks inner strength to use it. No victory is won with just muscle it must be backed by mettle and focus. Now show me your resolve...show me what lies within your soul. Or else you'll fall here....AS YOUR LIFE BECOMES NOTHING BUT RUST ON MY BLADE!!!"

*A flash of red would appear on his gauntlet as a sword handle would grow from it. Gripping it and unsheate it showing a blade that glows with dark energy. With a loud whine of his horse, spectral spears fly down from the sky, making jaune dodge backward. Jaune would come out a bit unscathed, leaving him no room to breathe between them. The S.O.C would appear before him swinging his blade down, shattering Jaune's shield and gauntlet. Letting out a cry of agony, Jaune would try to counter with a slash only for it to meet the spirits blade, causing a flash of blue light breaking the remains of crocea mors and destroying his other gauntlet. The S.O.C would let out a mirthful chuckle as his horse would knock Jaune back.*

S.O.C: "Yes that's it! Show me your resolve, your will to fight! Show me how hard you're willing to push yourself to achieve even the slightest of victory!" *His horse would let out another whine as it dances back as more spears would rain at Jaune.*

*Jaune would dodge the barrage but would take some hits as the spars would hit his leg armor, destroying them both. With no chance to counter the S.O.C. would come in for another swing of his sword, destroying Jaune's plate mail and with a follow-up slash destroying his helmet.*

*Jaune would be sent tumbling back as his vision would darken with his shallow breathing. He considered laying there and letting his death happen, but then a myriad of voices would come to him as memories would play in his mind. Pyrrha's smiling encouragement, her sacrifice as he was helpess to stop her. Penny's words of reassurance, her sacrifice, he was forced to assist... and despair. Ruby, Weiss, Blake, Yang....Nora, Ren, Oscar, stilling waiting on the other side in Vacuo. They would need him... Winter as well, they need allies. He just needs to stand up and survive.....but should he fall here, what's left? What would happen to a broken team RWBY, would they make it out alive with their sanity intact?. He had to help those in the Ever After....it was his duty as the Rusted Knight.

S.O.C: "Foolish child, you cling to a false prophet. The Rusted Knight is a hollow soul, his armor rusted because he does not possess the strength to stand on his own and take care of himself. He does not trust others, but a true knight does not treat his oath as shackles to hold themselves down. They are treated as reminders to boost himself, perhaps had you not feel sorry for yourself instead of steeling your resolve until no problem couldn't stop you, then maybe you would've succeeded and survived. Now stand up, and face your death like a proper knight."

*Jaune would slowly pull himself up as a spear would come down, piercing his chest. As he coughs up blood, his vision would darken as the voices of more poisonous comments come to mind. His father's words saying knights are no longer needed, no worry to continue the legacy. The derisive words of all the people at Beacon and Qrow's harsh words*

Jaune: *Thoughts* "Then...if they were stronger than him why aren't they here. Why am I the only one standing?"

????: "You know the answer....for those in the dark who's voices aren't heard. For the fiends that would slink back into the shadows thinking they're safe."

*A small light would come through the shaft of the spectral spear making jaune look down. It was small and it flickering, he had to reach it...to strengthen it. Jaune would grab the spear trying to force his aura through it slowly but surely making the light grow.*

*Outside the S.O.C would look down at the man, his body still skewered by the spear. His head looking down as if dead.*

S.O.C: "A true knight isn't strong because of their weapon. The only thing they would need is the balance of strength and will to their mettle. You have failed child of Arc...fall into the shadows and take your spot along with crowd of lost warriors." *Turns away from Jaune's body only to stop as sense a pulse*

*Back with Jaune in his mind, the glowing in the spear shined bright like a star as it would crumble absorbing into his body. The dark landscape would would reel back from the light forming into another figure wearing grey armor as he places his hand on Jaune's chest.*

???: "You are close...don't forget those that trust you why we still fight."

Ren's Voice: "Despite everything, when I look at him, Yang, I see no fear in his heart."

????: "Now come we have test to past!" *The armored figure would force his hand into Jaune's chest, making him scream as light would engulf them both*

*Back in the real world, the spectral spear that held Jaune's body would crumble, absorbing into his body as light sparkles would come from his body*

S.O.C: *Turns back seeing the light coming from Jaune* "Hmmm has he figured it out*

Jaune: *Screams out as energy would cloak his right arm, forming a flickering blade of aura... yet despite the bright color and fragile appearance there's a hint of black keeping it stable* "I'm not done yet...there's still much more for me to do *Points his new blade at the spirit*

S.O.C: "Hmm so you come to me bearing new power...very well let's see if it's enough! *Would pull his arm back blade ready to strike as his horse would kick the ground ready to go*

*Jaune would get into a stance ready for anything as the horse would rear up and speed towards him the S.O.C ready to strike. Both warriors would run to each blades ready to strike as they would even clash with a loud boom.*

*Meanwhile, other parts of the Ever After would shake and rumble as the residents would turn towards a large column of black and white would pierce the sky scattering the rain clouds. With Ruby and little, both would feel the ground shake as they look to the column. With the curious cat, it would hiss at the column feeling a dangerous intruder over there. With WBY, as they rode Juniper, they would stop seeing the column, hoping Jaune is fine.*

*Back at the mist covered area Jaune and S.O.C would have their backs to each other as Jaune would fall down trying to keep himself up*

S.O.C: "Good...very good" *As he says this, one of the horns on his helm would crack and fall down. On his chest, it would bear a gash showing a eerie blue* "Your light has shine strongly, you walk the path of Sigurd, slayer of demons....no I sense darkness in your blade as well. You walk the path Taivas, warrior that overcame a infecting darkness making it hos own. Do you why I say this....what did they have in common?

Jaune: *Gets up and turns to the spirit* "They didn't lose their way...so nothing could hold him"

S.O.C: *Turns his horse towards jaune* "Very good you have passed my trial young arc come close wield your new blade." *Holds his sword out towards Jaune*

Jaune: *Summons his new sword feeling the aura cloak his entire hand as it makes the flickering line of aura and clash it with the knight's own blade*

S.O.C: "Hear me now young arc, fear and doubt only leads to death. One that doesn't acknowledge his faults doesn't deserve to be called a knight...however with you understanding this and making peace with yourself, have shown you have earned it. Do not forget this lesson if you do I will come after you again*

*With his peace said the S.O.C would disappear in a flash of light as the mist would finally clear up*

Jaune: *Turns towards the water, looking at his reflection....then back at his new sword. Grabbing his ponytail, he would hold it enough as he used the new aura sword to cut the pony tail off. Looking down at it showing it still holds the last remnants of Pyrrha's sash, Jaune would let it fall from his hand into the water, making it disperse* "Goodbye Pyrrha....Goodbye Penny."

*Jaune would turn only to be greater by another armored figure. Waiting to see if they would try something, the armored figure only plants his greatsword in salute before disappearing, leaving the blade. Jaune, confused by what he saw, walks up, grabbing the blade as it turns into a hooded button-up grey coat.*

Jaune: *Thinking on it for a bit, he would put on the coat buttoning up near his mouth, making it look like a cape* "Time to make amends....and to catch up." *Starts walking towards the dark Acre sensing Ruby and the others in that direction as he would put the hood up*

I kinda wanted it to look like a lost animated version of s.o.c but whatwver

[tabootabletalk]

Here's a little stream of consciousness I call

(𝙏.𝙔.𝙏.𝙄) 𝙏𝙖𝙡𝙠 𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝙏𝙝𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙜�� 𝙄𝙩

Tell me what you think, should I do more poetry/s.o.c content ? Was there a term/phrase that I used that you didn't know/recognize?

[babvblue]

i understand s.b & s.o.c mean the world to so many people (me included) but every time i see it trending .... please, i'm begging, just let it go bc WHAT are they going to do in the next season/the spin off, they've basically used up all the quality content already

NATC North American A3J-1 Vigilante 147852 by Wing attack Plan R Via Flickr: The Vigilante, designed and built for the U.S. Navy by North American Aircraft Division at Columbus, Ohio, was the only Mach 2 bomber to serve aboard a Navy carrier. Initially designated the A3J-1 attack bomber, it was one of the largest and heaviest aircraft ever accepted for service aboard U.S. Navy carriers. Production began in 1956, and it entered squadron service in June 1961. It was redesignated the A-5 and fully deployed by August 1962, when the USS Enterprise, the Navy’s first nuclear aircraft carrier, made its inaugural cruise. Changing defense strategies marked a change of focus away from carrier-based, heavy-attack squadrons. In 1964, all the Vigilantes were reconfigured as reconnaissance aircraft and designated RA-5C. Reconnaissance gear was mounted in what had been the Vigilante’s bomb bay. Other modifications allowed the RA-5C to carry four external fuel tanks. These additions increased the airplane’s range on reconnaissance missions and allowed it to keep its attack capability with externally mounted bombs and rockets. The RA-5C Vigilante first flew on June 30, 1962, and was capable of all-weather, long-range, carrier- or land-based, multisensor, reconnaissance missions involving high-altitude supersonic, or very low-altitude, high-speed penetrations. Its inertial navigation system provided the precise position location information demanded. The Vigilante pilot and the reconnaissance/attack navigator (RAN) sat in tandem under individual clamshell-type canopies. The RAN controlled all reconnaissance functions, although the pilot could assume control of the oblique-mounted serial frame cameras. Each crewmember had a catapult/rocket-powered ejection seat, also designed and produced at the Columbus facility, capable of high-altitude, high-speed or ground-level recoveries. The RA-5C featured a high, thin swept wing and all-movable slab-type tail surfaces with spoiler/deflectors in lieu of conventional ailerons for lateral control. The wing was equipped with flaps and droopable leading edges with boundary layer control, which, when used in conjunction with the spoiler/deflectors, improved low-speed flight characteristics. The combination of the RA-5C Vigilante’s ability to deliver conventional weapons, day or night in all kinds of weather, as well as to complete tactical reconnaissance missions made it one of the most versatile aircraft in the world. RA-5Cs served throughout the Vietnam War and were retired from service in 1979. 147852, C.N. NA263-3. Converted to RA-5C Vigilante. Withdrawn from service to MASDC 10 January, 1974 as AA 4A0027. S.O.C. 1 August 1974. Transferred to China Lake Weapons Center 6 April, 1979. Photo Credit's: Unknown to me (Reprint scan) Photo thought to have been taken at Paris Airshow 1960.

Hông bạn. Nghiên cứu về áp dụng các mạng lưới thần kinh nhân tạo cho học máy được trao Nobel năm nay đúng là về lĩnh vực Vật lý đấy. Bởi nó đã chứng minh rằng cái gọi là trí thông minh ở sinh vật đến từ sự tương tác và kết hợp của thế giới vật chất chứ không phải là cái gì đó mơ hồ, siêu nhiên mà mỗi người chúng ta không thể chạm đến :D

Đúng rồi. Intelligence đồng nghĩa với trí năng (智能) hay trí lực (智力) như bên Tàu đang dùng chứ chả phải là trí tuệ. Dịch là trí thông mình cũng được vì quả thực AI hiện đã có thể phản hồi nhanh hơn rất nhiều người. Yes. Phản hồi đó có đúng không thì lại là chuyện rất khác nha!

Ờ. Một điểm khá tiêu cực là điều này sẽ trở thành cơ sở cho những câu hỏi hóc búa về việc tái tổ chức hệ thống giáo dục và đào tạo của chúng ta. Ví dụ vai trò của "trí thức" trong xã hội hiện nay là gì? Nháy kép vì như mình từng đặt câu hỏi hồi năm ngoái: Trí thức là những ai?

Uh. Sức mạnh của phù thủy (witch) đến từ khả năng phép thuật vốn có kết hợp với thực hành dân gian còn pháp sư (wizard) là từ đào tạo và sáng tạo mà thành. Nên việc từ phù thủy hay được gắn cho nữ và pháp sư cho nam đến từ việc các bé gái không được đi học trước kia chứ không phải là do khác biệt văn hoá. Thực tế thì bên cạnh việc chỉ những người thực hành phép thuật nói chung, từ mage còn dùng để chỉ những ai có tầm hiểu biết rộng lớn, tức giống như bác học ở ta :D

***

Về cơ bản thì các ứng dụng của AI hiện nay đang được xây dựng bằng cách sử dụng năng lực tính toán của vi mạch bán dẫn để triển khai chức năng của mạng lưới thần kinh sinh học nên rất t��� nhiên khi nảy sinh câu hỏi: Liệu rằng các cụm tế bào thần kinh có thể thực hiện được các chức năng về tính toán đại số??? Là một đối tượng nghiên cứu của viện Max Planck về trí thông minh sinh học (Max Planck Institute for Biological Intelligence), đáp án cho câu hỏi này hiện đã được thương mại hóa với bộ xử lý Neuroplatform của FinalSpark từ quý hai năm nay.

Ai biết. Neural Compute Stick - Thiết bị dành cho người dùng phổ thông đầu tiên triển khai Điện toán hình thái thần kinh (Neuromorphic Computing) - đã bị Intel khai tử ngay trước khi AI tạo sinh đầu tiên rời khỏi phòng thí nghiệm (ChatGPT đó) để rồi tái sinh thành NPU trong các thế hệ bộ vi xử lý Intel mới nhất đó thôi!

Không. Đơn vị thần kinh nhân tạo là một khái niệm toán học được tạo ra để biểu diễn cách tế bào thần kinh hoạt động chứ không phải là thực thế vật lý ạ. Tức là về bản chất, nó chỉ là mối quan hệ giữa các đại lượng được lưu trong ô nhớ mà thôi. Mãi đến khi tốc độ trao đổi dữ liệu cần thiết giữa bộ nhớ tạm thời và đơn vị tính toán vượt quá băng thông của các công nghệ bộ nhớ hiện có thì việc thiết kế và chế tạo vi mạch theo kiểu ghép nối các đơn vị thần kinh mới trở nên có lợi về kinh tế. Tổng quan về cái này thì ở đây, đây và đây (nhớ bật dịch phụ đề lên)

Nói khác đi, nếu cần phải chọn giữa một mạch chứa mỗi CPU cao cấp đời cũ và một S.o.C với CPU, iGPU, NPU và RAM thì mình sẽ lấy cái nào có giá rẻ hơn :D

Megahouse - One Piece - S.O.C - Roronoa Zoro, Portrait of Pirates Collectible Figure

The P.O.P ONE PIECE "S.O.C" series is a collection of figures of ONE PIECE characters posed in a relaxed position as if sitting on a chair!

The fourth figure in the series is Roronoa Zoro, which was originally released in 2017 and is now being re-released! Sanji, Sabo, and Trafalgar Law all posed in suits while sitting on a leather sofa, but Zoro instead wears a Japanese-style outfit while sitting on the floor with a cushion for a change of atmosphere

While "S.O.C" originally stood for "sitting on chair", this time around it stands for "sitting on cushion"!

The cushion was designed with true Japanese taste by Crimin, and the figure holding his favorite sword "Wado Ichimonji" was carefully sculpted by MAS and painted by Keiji Ando

Only product with affixed official Bandai Namco label has been thoroughly tested for safety and meets all North American consumer product safety regulations and entitles the purchaser to product support assistance

A RETURN AND REBOOT

Hello, I know this blog hasn't really been active in a while and I haven't been the best of RPers but after a few years of inactivity I decided to come back and this time with a semi-updated muse list and now an actual rules list and proper tags!

My Muse List

Ironhide: One of my favorite autobot characters, and one of the few autobots ready to let his servos do the talking for him. I usually try to RP as him as an amalgamation of the various versions of him but I have soft-spot for Gen1 and Animated. His tag is #Autobot-Bruiser

Tatsurion the Unchained(Bob): An awesome character from the underrated cartoon of Kaijudo:Rise of the Duel Masters, he's a gruff guy but he has a heart of gold underneath his armor scales and thick hide. Since there's really only one version of him that has personality he's gonna be that version. His Tag is #Chained-Halfdragon or #Bob-and-Weave(Just Bob) if ya want him to be friendly.

Next up is Raphael of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The powerhouse of the Turtles and one that has temper in him but in reality is a softy when ya get to know him. The incarnation that I'll use are 03, 12, Bayverse and Rise. His tag is #Red-Bandana

Knuckles comes bursting through: This rough and rowdy Echidna is best known of being the muscle of Sonics friends but with recent turns has more depth to him. I'm mainly plan to play him as a sort of amalgamation of his different incarnations but I can RP as a specific version I ya ask me. His tag is #Knuckle-Buster

Lastly the original leader of the Mighty Morphing Power Ranger is Jason Lee Scott or the Red Tyrannosaurus Ranger. The first leader and then later on S.O.C of the Mighty Morphers Jason is a Karate prodigy and popular jock but despite that he's a nice guy willing to help out those in need. His tag is #Red-Roaring-Ranger

Rule list:

I try to plan out threads to be usually PG-13, as in there can be some mature elements but let's not get too carried away with them.

If you want me to be a specific version of one of my muses then please tell me, otherwise I'll respond as an amalgamation of the characters various versions if they have them.

You can reblog a starter call of mine for wanna my muses if your interested in RPing, and I'm going to message ya if it's just a generic starter call for RPing to figure out a plot.

Be patient I tend to be slow with replying to reblogs either due to life or I'm having a day of low energy.

If you don't respect the rules I have set you'll get three warnings, and if you try to push beyond that then you'll be blocked.

Hey Saturn! How have you been sleeping lately?

Not both you and Mack obligating me 😭 don't worry though, I'm happy to.

Okay so question, what's something someone could do on a first date that would immediately make you want a second? Ideal date scenario? Maybe something that would make you want to date someone?

hihi! i’ve been sleeping well recently, however, i’ve been more tired than usual. i think my classes are catching up with me 😭

something that someone could do on a first date and immediately make me want a second? hm, this is a good question! overall, i think it would come down to their personality & how they treated me while on the date. if they’re a complete jackass, that’s an immediate no. my standards are pretty low because i know ain’t nobody living up to armin arlert or any of the crows from s.o.c.

honestly, my ideal date would just be something the both of us would enjoy. whether that’s going out to eat, an arcade, or even staying in and watching movies. i don’t want a date that only one of us would like. i want something that both of us think “yeah, i’d like to do that”

as far as what would make me want to date someone, they’d have to be armin arlert 🤭 (jokes! i think..)
