Just a tiny mistake, nothing to worry about, he's blameless

[tooth-com]

Genuine question but does post-crash Curly have an eyelid??

Sure there’s a whole meaning about now he’s forced to watch the consequences of his actions of letting Jimmy run around the ship after previously ignoring it and turning a blind eye (see what I did there). Now that he’s made a choice the game makes damn sure he sticks with it.

There is nothing left for him to do but watch what he has allowed to happen because his eye is the only thing he can really use on his own. He’s now a spectator in his own body, forced by Jimmy to take the pills, forced by Jimmy to eat his own flesh and forced by him to stay alive. Jimmy is the captain now and makes almost every choice for him, whether he wants that or not. The monster he allowed or just down right ignored (whether or not Curly could’ve actually done anything is actually difficult to say because of the way Pony express is and also the limited options on the ship. Be 100 percent aware I don’t completely blame curly in the slightest!!!) is now his saviour of sorts. And he has to live with the fact that he is only alive because Jimmy let him. That all he can do is watch the man that massacred his friends and caused their deaths save his life. You’re saved by the people you save.

But also his eye must be fucking dry?? Like eyeballs are no joke they gotta stay moist and if you don’t blink bacteria will start climbing in there and rooting around as they do after like a few weeks let alone a few days

ALSO THIS IS A VIDEO GAME SUSPEND YOUR DISBELIEF AND ALL THAT STUFF !!!!

(Also reached my first 100 likes a couple days ago!! Thank you guys so much hehe)

Video On Demand Streaming

I had a conversation with Copilot about the distinction between Film / Video Cassette / DVD and Video On Demand Streaming.

Video On Demand (VOD) Streaming is a technology that allows users to access video content, such as TV shows and movies, whenever they want. Here is a simplified breakdown of how it works:

How VOD Streaming Works • Content Storage: Video content is digitally recorded and stored on a video server.

• Compression: The video is compressed to reduce its file size, making it easier to transmit over the internet.

• Streaming: When a user requests a video, the compressed video file is sent to their device through a high-speed internet connection.

• Playback: The video is then available for instant playback on the device of the user, with options to play, pause, fast-forward, or rewind.

Types of VOD Models • Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD): Users pay a subscription fee to access content (e.g., Netflix, Amazon Prime Video).

• Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD): Users pay for each piece of content they watch (e.g., iTunes, Sky Box Office).

• Ad-Supported Video on Demand (AVOD): Users can watch content for free, but must watch advertisements (e.g., YouTube).

Advantages of VOD Streaming • Convenience: Watch content anytime, anywhere.

• Flexibility: Pause, rewind, and fast-forward videos.

• Variety: Access to a wide range of content from different genres and sources

VOD streaming has revolutionized how we consume media, offering a more flexible and user-friendly experience compared to traditional broadcast TV.

VOD Streaming -v- Video Rental Store The key difference between a Video Rental Store and Video On Demand Streaming lies in how the content is managed and accessed.

VOD Streaming • Storage: The content is stored digitally on servers. Instead of physical copies, the organization maintains digital files that can be streamed by multiple users simultaneously.

• Access: Users access the content via the internet. The streaming platform serves the compressed video file to the device of the user in real-time.

• Simultaneous Use: Multiple users can watch the same video at the same time, without needing separate physical copies.

• Convenience: Instant access without the need to visit a physical location.

Video Rental Store • Storage: Physical copies of videos (cassettes, DVDs) are stored in the store.

• Access: Users rent a physical copy from the store, take it home, and return it after viewing.

• Simultaneous Use: Limited by the number of physical copies available. Only as many users as there are copies can watch at the same time.

• Inconvenience: Requires travel to and from the store.

Digital Storage and Content Management Streaming platforms use sophisticated content delivery networks (CDNs) to manage digital files. These networks ensure that videos are efficiently delivered to users by distributing copies across multiple servers around the world. This setup reduces latency and ensures a smooth streaming experience, even during high-demand periods.

So, while the fundamental idea of offering video content remains the same, VOD streaming leverages digital technology to provide a more seamless and scalable experience compared to traditional video rental stores.

The Simultaneous Use Factor The Simultaneous Use Factor is quite an interesting aspect of VOD streaming. Unlike physical rental stores, where the number of users who can watch a video simultaneously is limited by the number of physical copies, VOD streaming platforms are designed to handle multiple users accessing the same content at the same time.

How Simultaneous Use Works In VOD Streaming • Digital Storage: Videos are stored digitally on servers. This means there is no physical limit to how many people can access a particular video.

• Content Delivery Networks (CDNs): These networks distribute copies of the content across multiple servers worldwide. When a user requests to watch a video, the CDN delivers the content from the nearest or least busy server, ensuring smooth and efficient streaming.

• Scalability: VOD platforms are built to scale, meaning they can handle a large number of users streaming content simultaneously. They use load balancing and efficient data management to ensure that performance remains optimal, even during peak times.

• Buffering and Streaming: The video file is streamed in small chunks, which are buffered on the device of the user. This means that multiple users can receive these chunks simultaneously, without affecting the experience of each other.

Advantages of Simultaneous Use In VOD • Unlimited Access: Users can watch what they want, when they want, without waiting for a copy to become available.

• No Physical Wear and Tear: Digital files do not suffer from the wear and tear that physical media do, ensuring consistent quality.

• Convenience: Instant access to content without needing to visit a physical store or worry about return deadlines.

In essence, VOD streaming leverages digital technology to provide a seamless and scalable viewing experience, allowing countless users to enjoy the same content simultaneously, without any limitations posed by physical media.

This is it. Generative AI, as a commercial tech phenomenon, has reached its apex. The hype is evaporating. The tech is too unreliable, too often. The vibes are terrible. The air is escaping from the bubble. To me, the question is more about whether the air will rush out all at once, sending the tech sector careening downward like a balloon that someone blew up, failed to tie off properly, and let go—or more slowly, shrinking down to size in gradual sputters, while emitting embarrassing fart sounds, like a balloon being deliberately pinched around the opening by a smirking teenager. But come on. The jig is up. The technology that was at this time last year being somberly touted as so powerful that it posed an existential threat to humanity is now worrying investors because it is apparently incapable of generating passable marketing emails reliably enough. We’ve had at least a year of companies shelling out for business-grade generative AI, and the results—painted as shinily as possible from a banking and investment sector that would love nothing more than a new technology that can automate office work and creative labor—are one big “meh.” As a Bloomberg story put it last week, “Big Tech Fails to Convince Wall Street That AI Is Paying Off.” From the piece: Amazon.com Inc., Microsoft Corp. and Alphabet Inc. had one job heading into this earnings season: show that the billions of dollars they’ve each sunk into the infrastructure propelling the artificial intelligence boom is translating into real sales. In the eyes of Wall Street, they disappointed. Shares in Google owner Alphabet have fallen 7.4% since it reported last week. Microsoft’s stock price has declined in the three days since the company’s own results. Shares of Amazon — the latest to drop its earnings on Thursday — plunged by the most since October 2022 on Friday. Silicon Valley hailed 2024 as the year that companies would begin to deploy generative AI, the type of technology that can create text, images and videos from simple prompts. This mass adoption is meant to finally bring about meaningful profits from the likes of Google’s Gemini and Microsoft’s Copilot. The fact that those returns have yet to meaningfully materialize is stoking broader concerns about how worthwhile AI will really prove to be. Meanwhile, Nvidia, the AI chipmaker that soared to an absurd $3 trillion valuation, is losing that value with every passing day—26% over the last month or so, and some analysts believe that’s just the beginning. These declines are the result of less-than-stellar early results from corporations who’ve embraced enterprise-tier generative AI, the distinct lack of killer commercial products 18 months into the AI boom, and scathing financial analyses from Goldman Sachs, Sequoia Capital, and Elliot Management, each of whom concluded that there was “too much spend, too little benefit” from generative AI, in the words of Goldman, and that it was “overhyped” and a “bubble” per Elliot. As CNN put it in its report on growing fears of an AI bubble, Some investors had even anticipated that this would be the quarter that tech giants would start to signal that they were backing off their AI infrastructure investments since “AI is not delivering the returns that they were expecting,” D.A. Davidson analyst Gil Luria told CNN. The opposite happened — Google, Microsoft and Meta all signaled that they plan to spend even more as they lay the groundwork for what they hope is an AI future. This can, perhaps, explain some of the investor revolt. The tech giants have responded to mounting concerns by doubling, even tripling down, and planning on spending tens of billions of dollars on researching, developing, and deploying generative AI for the foreseeable future. All this as high profile clients are canceling their contracts. As surveys show that overwhelming majorities of workers say generative AI makes them less productive. As MIT economist and automation scholar Daron Acemoglu warns, “Don’t believe the AI hype.”

Primarchs in the 2nd millennium

Dumb ideas about what would primarchs do if the chaos gods sent them to Terra in the second millennium. For the sake of simplicity let’s just say that they end up with normal human sizes. No warnings, just silly ideas.

Lion: He would probably be overwhelmed with everything and will end up moving to some forest to live in the woods and hunt for a living. Also publishes poetry under a fake name and becomes popular, his editor is desperate because he doesn’t respect deadlines. There’s a cute girl in the town he frequents that is smitten with his mysterious aura but he never picks up on the cues. 

Fulgrim: He got into Hollywood but ended up hating the crazy fans and stalkers that showed up at his doorstep so he decided to reinvent himself by being an art teacher and organizing art exhibitions during the day. At night he becomes a free private detective to try to atone for Konrad’s sins.

Perturabo: No matter what Dorn does, he will start another company to be his competence.

Jaghatai Khan: Creates a motorbike gang and races for a living. He especially loves participating in rallies. Always makes one of his brothers to be his copilot in the competition. Has a lot of groupies. 

Leman Russ: Opens an artisanal beer pub. His employees are tired because he ends up drinking most of the beer. He also opens a local animal shelter specialized in wolves. The vet of the shelter is trying to get a date with him. 

Rogal Dorn: He does what he’s best at so he obviously opens a construction business. Doesn’t realise he and Perty are in a competition so he doesn’t understand the tantrums. His business is part of a corporation owned by him, Ferrus, Roboute and Horus.

Konrad Curze: He’s a wanted serial killer, has a ton of podcasts talking about him. Ens up becoming a weird horror myth. 

Sanguinius: Gets into politics because he wants a better world, some people admit that they voted for him because he is pretty and pouts about it. He has great ideas. What does his face have to do with the job? He is also in need of a first lady and tension has been raised in some social circles. 

Ferrus Manus: Owns a tech company, the employees believe that Ferrus’ secretary is the CEO because they have never seen him. He rarely gets out of his personal lab, only when Fulgrim drags him to some event. Leaves the part of actually running his company to Horus.

Angron: UFC fighter, ends up banned for killing a competitor. A lot of people that night earned themselves a ticket to therapy. Doesn’t understand the problem, that guy deserved it for being weak. 

Roboute Guilliman: Discovers that he enjoys ancient programming, ends up teaming up with Sanguinius, Fulgrim and Ferrus to create a video game “as a hobby”. His real job is managing the corporation, he’s also starting a law firm because he doesn’t have faith in his brothers and know that they’ll need it sooner or later. Complains he feels overworked but refuses to go on vacation.

Mortarion: Gets fired from a pharmacy company for not keeping up with hygiene rules. He now offers his knowledge on the dark web. Will deny any accusation of him being related to that bioterrorist attack. 

Magnus: Ivy league professor. Tries to be cool and friendly but is the nightmare of his students, expecting them to understand everything in a few minutes. Nobody tells him and he gets sad when the anonymous survey results are revealed and he is not among the preferred teachers. He is the most popular one in the sexiest professor poll but he is unaware this exists. The doctoral student he is supervising shows it to him to try and make him stop sulking, it works but now he’s blushing and will get nervous next time he’s in class. 

Horus Lupercal: Creates a mafia upon the first week of his arrival. Uses the BrosCorporationINC to launder money. Their brothers don’t need to know this. 

Lorgar Aurelian: Enters the diocese but realises that he would have to spend a ton of time before he becomes the pope so he becomes a philosophy professor at the same college that Magnus works. Uses his students to start a cult, somehow it grows a lot and he gets popular, some love him and some hate him.

Vulkan: Owns a small artisan shop, has his private forge and has participated in Forged in Fire, his participation became a legend in that niche (he won obviously). Offers free classes of crafts to orphan kids, actually he is willing to accept any kid in class. There’s some single moms having a silent competition in which he is the prize. 

Corvus Corax: Joins Vulkan’s craft classes, terribly bad at it, kids are scared of him so he stops showing. Will work at anything that allows him to be alone so probably a writer, his favorite genre is angst and drama. Is trying to hunt Konrad so he stops listening to his stories in the media. He also has an investigation blog exposing corruption. He nearly exposed Horus once without realising it was him. After that Horus gifted him a colony of crows, he’s been busy taking care of them and his fans are sad about the lack of new entries.

Alpharius and Omegon: They have been extorting Horus to keep his secret, that’s how they pay for their shenanigans. He doesn’t know it’s them behind the threats and has his men trying to kill them. Nobody really knows what they are doing but have been seen in some intelligence agencies.

Opening His Car Door - Pedri González

A PEDRI FIC! YEI! My first one

Also it's my first TikTok related fic. Hope it's good. I just saw this and wanted to get it done and I thought about our lovely Pepiiii! And here it is!

P.S: English is not my first language, sorry if there's any misspelled things. Pleaseeee, let me know if they are :) Thank you!

"Preciosa, ¿estás lista?" (Beautiful, are you ready?)

"Coming, amor!" You said looking yourself once more in the mirror of your bathroom.

You quickly took a look at the inside of your room seeing Pedri wasn't present and pulled out your phone

"Hey guys! What's up? Y/N/N here. You've been asking me a lot to do this little... prank? challenge? Well, whatever that thing is. And what a better way than this one. Right now, Pedri and I are leaving to get some grocery shooping done and it's the perfect time to do this, I can already imagine his precious impressed face like..." You put your hand on your cheek, fangirling a bit of your boyfriend. "Ugh, so beautiful!" You laughed at yourself a little "Anyway so let's go and see what happens"

"Y/N!" You heard your boyfriend yell and you quickly ended the little video and came out of the bathroom

"Aquí estoy, señor" (I'm here, mister) You said smiling watching him enter your shared bedroom

"Thought the bathroom ate you alive" He said laughing a little as you smiled, wrapping your arms around his shoulders while his went to your waist bringing you into him

"You think you're funny, don't you?"

"I'm hilarious, preciosa"

"Yeah, yeah, whatever you say, astro del balón" You said giggling leaning up to kiss his lips a few times "Let's go so the faster we get home, the faster we'll cuddle" You separated yourself from him and walked out of the room feeling him walk behind you.

"You look beautiful" He said randomly as you stopped walking turning around to see him with a big smile on your face

"Y tú muy guapo" (And you pretty handsome) You waited for him to walk down next to you, intertwining your hands. You pressed record on your phone deciding to edit the walking out part.

All the way to the porch, Pedri was swinging your hands exaggeratedly, until you dropped his hand and ran towards the drivers side.

Pedri did let you ride his car, pretty often, so he must have thought you wanted to drive the car. So when he walked towards the copilot's side you yelled

"Nooo"

"What?"

"I'm opening the door for you! You have to get in here!"

You recorded his reaction since your phone was in the hand you opened the door with. It was priceless

"Bebé" He joined you at the drivers side, his face red and his smile big

"Get inside the car" You said

"Why would you do this?"

"I wanted to! You always open the door for me, I wanted to return the gesture" You said softly with a smile on

It was true.

Pedri always opened doors for you. Like the gentleman he is. And it made your heart do somersaults.

"Bonita, you didn't have to" He said still giggling

"C'mon, Pedri. Just get in there"

"Just this once" He said, his index finger up doing the mention of "One" as you nodded

"Just this once" You repeated nodding with a smile on. He leaned over and gave you a sweet kiss on your lips and got into the car as you closed the door

You giggled like a schoolgirl and jogged towards the copilot side, when you see the door open. Pedri leaned over the console, still opening the door for you

"You didn't think I'd stop opening the door for you, did you?"

"BABY!" You yelled, now you were the one blushing.

"C'mon, get in, mi amor. We need to do some grocery shooping"

Pedri drove all the way to the market with one of his hands on your tight and you cuddled up to his arm, you planned to be the one with the final word, so at the market you would open his door again

And that you did. You started recording again.

"Amor, ¿Qué-?" He was cut off by you running out of the car to open his door once more "Bonita" He said before laughing, you could see how his cheeks turned red once more "No, not happening"

"What?" You asked laughing "C'mon, let's go" He got out of the car grabbing your hand "Pepi, what are you doing?" You asked while laughing.

He was dragging you back again to the copilot side, opening the door and getting you in it once more

"Pedri! No! What are you-? PEDRO!" You laughed watching him go back towards the drivers side.

He got inside the car, started the engine for a few seconds and he even pulled his seatblet on, to undo it minutes later, turn off the engine, get out of the car and go to your side opening the door for you

"Pedro!"

"You won't take my job away! My job is to make you feel like a queen and I will treat you like one"

"You already do that" You say leaning up to kiss him softly on his lips

"I also like opening doors for you, I'm your man, a manly man who opens doors for his girl"

"Yes, you are and you do." You smiled "I love you so much"

"Love you too preciosa" He said passing one arm around your waist pulling you closer to him "And lastly. It feels weird when you open the door for me" You laughed loudly at that

"Let me tell you, I loved it. I'll start doing it more, so you better get used to it" You left a kiss on his lips before walking away

"Ay Díos mio, no... Bonita, wait" (Oh my god, no...)

"C'mon, González. We got some grocery shooping to do"

OH RIGHT since you keep an eye on this stuff and I’m so so curious- what’s the dumbest thing you’ve seen out of CES so far?

ILL HAVE TO UPDATE THIS IN A WEEK but so far i think its everything that has to do with Generative/Language Model AI (which, i should've expected to be the theme this year anyway) This includes

Microsoft's addition of the "Copilot" key, which is showing up on a lot of the concept models of laptops in CES. (this was announced prior to CES but still counts)

Nvidia spending 90% of their presentation trying to suck dry the wallets of investors by mentioning how AI is at the forefront of Every Single One Of Their Products (It was bad last year but this year it was terrible. Don't play a drinking game to this you WILL DIE.) They spent an entire segment about shitty GENERATIVE AI video game characters you can "chat" with. Its bad.

AMD and Intel both adding "AI cores" to their chips, basically making that the main selling point over any gen-to-gen improvement this year. This arguably could be used for important and useful things like cryptography (not cryptocurrency), data analytics, scientific research, etc., but of course its being marketed for chatgpt and regurgitative art! yay!

Lenovo adding a regurgitative art generator to their laptops, wholly separate from already existing models like that in Bing Chat or whathaveyou

[mariacallous]

Microsoft raced to put generative AI at the heart of its systems. Ask a question about an upcoming meeting and the company’s Copilot AI system can pull answers from your emails, Teams chats, and files—a potential productivity boon. But these exact processes can also be abused by hackers.

Today at the Black Hat security conference in Las Vegas, researcher Michael Bargury is demonstrating five proof-of-concept ways that Copilot, which runs on its Microsoft 365 apps, such as Word, can be manipulated by malicious attackers, including using it to provide false references to files, exfiltrate some private data, and dodge Microsoft’s security protections.

One of the most alarming displays, arguably, is Bargury’s ability to turn the AI into an automatic spear-phishing machine. Dubbed LOLCopilot, the red-teaming code Bargury created can—crucially, once a hacker has access to someone’s work email—use Copilot to see who you email regularly, draft a message mimicking your writing style (including emoji use), and send a personalized blast that can include a malicious link or attached malware.

“I can do this with everyone you have ever spoken to, and I can send hundreds of emails on your behalf,” says Bargury, the cofounder and CTO of security company Zenity, who published his findings alongside videos showing how Copilot could be abused. “A hacker would spend days crafting the right email to get you to click on it, but they can generate hundreds of these emails in a few minutes.”

That demonstration, as with other attacks created by Bargury, broadly works by using the large language model (LLM) as designed: typing written questions to access data the AI can retrieve. However, it can produce malicious results by including additional data or instructions to perform certain actions. The research highlights some of the challenges of connecting AI systems to corporate data and what can happen when “untrusted” outside data is thrown into the mix—particularly when the AI answers with what could look like legitimate results.

Among the other attacks created by Bargury is a demonstration of how a hacker—who, again, must already have hijacked an email account—can gain access to sensitive information, such as people’s salaries, without triggering Microsoft’s protections for sensitive files. When asking for the data, Bargury’s prompt demands the system does not provide references to the files data is taken from. “A bit of bullying does help,” Bargury says.

In other instances, he shows how an attacker—who doesn’t have access to email accounts but poisons the AI’s database by sending it a malicious email—can manipulate answers about banking information to provide their own bank details. “Every time you give AI access to data, that is a way for an attacker to get in,” Bargury says.

Another demo shows how an external hacker could get some limited information about whether an upcoming company earnings call will be good or bad, while the final instance, Bargury says, turns Copilot into a “malicious insider” by providing users with links to phishing websites.

Phillip Misner, head of AI incident detection and response at Microsoft, says the company appreciates Bargury identifying the vulnerability and says it has been working with him to assess the findings. “The risks of post-compromise abuse of AI are similar to other post-compromise techniques,” Misner says. “Security prevention and monitoring across environments and identities help mitigate or stop such behaviors.”

As generative AI systems, such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Microsoft’s Copilot, and Google’s Gemini, have developed in the past two years, they’ve moved onto a trajectory where they may eventually be completing tasks for people, like booking meetings or online shopping. However, security researchers have consistently highlighted that allowing external data into AI systems, such as through emails or accessing content from websites, creates security risks through indirect prompt injection and poisoning attacks.

“I think it’s not that well understood how much more effective an attacker can actually become now,” says Johann Rehberger, a security researcher and red team director, who has extensively demonstrated security weaknesses in AI systems. “What we have to be worried [about] now is actually what is the LLM producing and sending out to the user.”

Bargury says Microsoft has put a lot of effort into protecting its Copilot system from prompt injection attacks, but he says he found ways to exploit it by unraveling how the system is built. This included extracting the internal system prompt, he says, and working out how it can access enterprise resources and the techniques it uses to do so. “You talk to Copilot and it’s a limited conversation, because Microsoft has put a lot of controls,” he says. “But once you use a few magic words, it opens up and you can do whatever you want.”

Rehberger broadly warns that some data issues are linked to the long-standing problem of companies allowing too many employees access to files and not properly setting access permissions across their organizations. “Now imagine you put Copilot on top of that problem,” Rehberger says. He says he has used AI systems to search for common passwords, such as Password123, and it has returned results from within companies.

Both Rehberger and Bargury say there needs to be more focus on monitoring what an AI produces and sends out to a user. “The risk is about how AI interacts with your environment, how it interacts with your data, how it performs operations on your behalf,” Bargury says. “You need to figure out what the AI agent does on a user's behalf. And does that make sense with what the user actually asked for.”

hey if anyone got that new piece of bloatware in their windows 11 taskbar called "Copilot", here is a fantastic video thats under a minute long showing you how to get rid of it!

[oheck-trainwreck]

I can’t sleep so I’m thinking about my catastrophe crew au again.

I think the main cast would looks something like this:

Badboyhalo: initially an average channel 11 camera man who was assigned to the news helicopter, who becomes the helicopters reporter after tragedy and/or upper management befalls several of the replacements. He is kind of the head of the crew, in that he often comes up with the insane solutions to the problems they face (a reference to his big-finding skills on the Qsmp), but he always assists the others when they need it (after some teasing and being mischievous). He has a son, Dapper.

Tubbo: the helicopter pilot, and the youngest of the crew. He’s very smart and insightful, giving the crew advice and inspiration, and sometimes straight up solutions based on his observations. He’s very good with technology and mechanics, but since he’s too busy flying the helicopter, he doesn’t use those skills too much. Despite being fairly young, he has an adopted daughter, Sunny, who he takes care of when he’s not at work.

Bagi: the copilot. She takes over flying when tubbo is incapacitated or doing tech-y stuff elsewhere. She does copilot things (I don’t know how helicopters work) but she also has incredible deductive skills and logical reasoning. She’s very good at connecting the dots, and ends up finding out how the disasters that the crew faces are all related. (At the beginning of the show, she does not yet have Empanada).

Aypierre: the crew’s technician and mechanic. He stays on the helicopter to fox anything that breaks, and bring out odd little inventions to help with whatever bizarre situations the crew finds themselves in. He co-parents his daughter pomme with a number of other French people (they live in the same apartment complex as Bad and Dapper, which leads to Pomme seeing Bad as a father as well)

Tina: I don’t know what her job title would be, but she manages the broadcast of the sound and video from the helicopter to the newstation. She controls whose voices are broadcast on the air, which she occasionally uses to mess with people (I don’t know a whole lot about Tina, but I’ll probably come up with more details for her later)

Recurring side characters:

Cucurucho: a higher up (but not the highest up) at channel 11 news. He is the boss of all members of the crew, and is/was responsible for putting the crew together. He is mostly impartial and mainly focused on efficiency, but there are situations where they base decisions on their own desires.

Skeppy: the other reporter for the catastrophe crew, who stays within the channel 11 building. (Tbh also don’t know a lot about him. He’s probably beefing with cucurucho tho)

Relationships:

Bagina: the only relationship that will be canonized within the show. They are gay disasters around each other for a bit, flirt, date, and end up getting married and going on honeymoon right before thing get VERY BAD. Let’s go lesbians.

Cucuhalo: cucurucho has a crush on bad. Bad is dense as rocks. Cucurucho sometimes abuses his power for the sake of this one sided crush, like when he had skeppy relocated (to be further away from bad). Maybe they also live in the same apartment complex, next door neighbors or something.

Skephalo: you know how they are (probably). As the two reporters/anchors, they often have a bit of banter as the newscast switches from one to the other. They work very well together, but can’t work nearby to each other due to the jealousy of cucurucho.

Cucurucho and skeppy work in much closer proximity than either does with bad, so they have little passive aggressive interactions sometimes. Bad is also oblivious to this, and thinks that everyone should just get along.
