Before I played Halo Wars, where there is a vehicle unit named the Wolverine, it never occured to me that there is a species of animals called wolverine, I thought the Marvel character was just called that just because it sounds cool I guess.

New: Google has chosen a side in Trump's mass deportation campaign. Google is hosting a CBP facial recognition app to hunt immigrants; no indication Google will remove. At same time Google takes down apps for reporting ICE sightings “Big tech has made their choice” www.404media.co/google-has-c...

A Star Wars news outlet saying the Star Wars manga is one of the best manga... Surely no bias to see here. Curious what manga is being used as a frame of reference, though.

One month after the fragile ceasefire in Gaza, the Israeli army continues to breach it, launching attacks on Palestinians, killing civilians, detonating residential buildings inside the “yellow line,” and restricting agreed-upon humanitarian aid deliveries.

Cancel culture is too woke, it won't cancel me 😔

Wow Microsoft is evil?! Who would have thought...

While hating on CC, I think I forgot just exactly how bad ZZ is, omg.

FYI, the norm on Swedish sub-reddits seems to be fascism denial. Just sayin'

I didn't know since I didn't have this piece, but the Pirakha eye piece has the Three Virtues symbol! It's really cool #bionicle

How could I even begin to like a technology when the people pushing it are performing DDoS attacks on the websites I frequent?

I cannot overstate just how awful this stupid fucking bill proposal is - adding backdoors into encryption on OS level - "sniff" every single message before it gets encrypted AND SAVE IT CENTRALLY - let a goddamn hallucinating "AI" mark people as criminals it needs to be stopped, post haste

@iwritewrongs.bsky.social Final guesses for the elements:

So, I think copper golems have a pretty strong north-west biased. :/

Superman/DCU thoughts: It's not a bad movie, but by no means am I amazed either. It's more like a return to kinda good superhero movies. The greatest thing it does is comment on our contemporary world.

As an update on this - Things are pointing towards these two sets having been part of a second wave for 2012, not retailer exclusives.

Updated theory on the cancelled Breakout sets. If the last two sets are 6226 and 6294, then it also becomes possible for all of the sets to be lined up in orderly Hero-Villain parts.

A couple of unreleased Alien Conquest (2011) sets: 9351 and 9352! :) (It's the two sets to the left, 9351 being the blue jet-copter and 9352 the alien crawler.) Since these are in a different product number range, I would guess these were intended as retailer exclusives, but that's speculation.

@docwyattbeyond.bsky.social 1) Is the element of Balance a "misnomer" like Lloyd's (Life) Energy, or does it have the same relation to the SD of Balance that Lloyd's power has to the SD of Life? 2) Any chance you can reveal what kind of animal Zarkt is?

Been struggling for the past year to get into anime I haven't already seen. Maybe I have hit the bottom for things that interest me lol. idk. There is a handful of exceptions, but with some shows it feels like I'm forcing myself, and that's not counting ones I dropped on Ep 1.

TBH I think Minecraft is the only game I've played with a "creative mode" without asanine flight mechanics. Like, why is Halo's forge mode made to be such an intolorable experience?

40169 looks to be a 2016 BIONICLE set. Cancelled polybag? A weapon with a gear function, maybe? 43990 and 43991 are also EVO and TOXIC REAPA from Breakout, respectively. Not sure why those are duplicated, but they're the exact same as the regular sets.

@iwritewrongs.bsky.social Which one would you say is looking the most wrong, Balance aside? I feel like asking if we should be thinking more about Balance is spoiler territory :P

I only found out about this resource by @wadapan.bsky.social today, but this is lovely! Awesome to have these figures thoroughly documented somewhere. wadapan.neocities.org/lego/build-a...

Document managers are so fricking useless that I swear I'm about to use a mediawiki installation instead.

4003 is another BIONICLE set! The inventory lists the six Krana of the Bohrok (not the Bohrok Va ones). Might have been randomized like the Slizer polybag or collectible packs? Can't say without knowing the piece count.

How hard could it be to implement earbuds in Mario Kart?

if youve ever enjoyed any content on biomedia project, know that i've vetted a lot of it by relying on IA's captures of bionicle dot com. if you're reading this you probably have used IA for a lot more than that too! please do what you can to help them out

Not knowing is driving me insane.

Wow! LEGO just announced a new Batman Collectibles series releasing later this year. It will feature 20 different miniature Batmobiles in different hues of very dark grey.

Minecraft is a music player.

The only one with treads. This makes it the greatest.

Wellp. Probably going to stay off the platform until Ninjago S3 drops...

@iwritewrongs.bsky.social Is this getting close at all? :P

Fucking hell, Israel has opened across-the-territory airstrikes on their Gaza concentration camp. They're just exterminating at this point. Israel rejected the peace offerings over and over, they broke the cease-fires over and over, and now they're bombing schools, refugee camps, children, humans.

The Senate Democratic leader says it can’t be genocide if you were “provoked.” That is just a stunning thing to believe let alone say on the record.

NEW from Mahmoud Khalil’s wife, Noor: “This felt like a kidnapping because it was: Officers in plainclothes — who refused to show us a warrant, speak with our attorney, or even tell us their names — forced my husband into an unmarked car and took him” Says they didn’t know where he was for 38 hours

I remember just 5 years ago some people couldn't fathom why I hate Microsoft and Apple so much. Oh how the tides have turned.

Leaks are a huge disappointment for the people who have worked on something for years and then don't get the joy of telling people about it. If leaks are good for the project itself isn't really relevant. Developers care about what they work on and feel pride to share on their own terms.

@docwyattbeyond.bsky.social You previously said Water came from the Source Dragon of Motion. Just to be 100% sure, did you misspeak or is it not from the Source Dragon who's symbol matches with Nya's?

2 weeks into my Minecraft world, I have finally acquired cactus so I can make my banner. There really is only one way to get green dye in this game. I haven't been able to maintain interest in a singleplayer world for even a day for over a decade before this lol.

Dawned on me today: Including unreleased prototypes, there's 6 marbled Zamor Spheres for the Toa Inika, and... 6 Toa! Further more, the order of the 3 we know of also lines up with the set numbers of the Toa of the respective color.

Why tf is Daredevil not releasing at the usual time for D+ shows but at 9 pm ET? Looks incredibly misleading to release something on streaming with 3 hours left in the day they advertised.

hm. If ORAS was its own timeline, that does mane me think they would want to make use of the Hoenn trio in Z-A, giving them a storyline on the main timeline (while also ensuring all Megas are in the game).

Suzaku's immaculate Alex Dino cosplay.

www.minecraft.net/en-us/articl... Fallen trees!!! It finally happened!

The Endless Eight was... an experience.

Honestly, people on here seem so much more negative about Ninjago than the folk I typically talk to about it. Literally any snippet and everyone finds some immaterial reason to post "It's so over!" Meanwhile, like 90% of the people I talk to have been excited for each new season. It's unreal.
