#delphi watches op

[delphi-dreamin]

Oh, Chopper...

[revelboo]

While theyre all connected, the idw are in different time placements. Current ironhide hasn’t watch the video yet. also sparkling as a nickname and the way he treats his ward is so, hnng. Something about an older man treating his younger partner as a kid even when theyre very much, theyre an adult. I eat that dynamic so much. Optimus gives me the vibes with bluestreak, maybeee sideswipe, to sparkbond just because of love (op & blue) and taboo (sideswipe for the sparkplay and thrill, rip sunny). The latter is giving major oops sparked the human vibes, but honestly the number one likely to spark up their human is prowl. Jazz is 50/50 depends on his state of mind and is content with just having his human next to him even if he wants more and more. Wheeljack is slow burn and rip to his human. If this idw is unicorn and the millitary a thing or that its own thing?

The joints are ridiculously stiff and brittle on the gold editions. Pretty, but trying to pose them feels like they might break

Explanations/ Random Headcanons

The message has gone out at this point, but Prowl and Ironhide haven’t watched it yet. Ironhide couldn’t care less about any lies Megatron tells. Prowl will watch it because it’s intel and then be horrified. As far as he knows, he’s the only one that’s gotten ‘deviant’ with a human and like the rest of the Autobots, he assumes the worst with the Decepticon kept humans. Wheeljack is too awkward to really make a move with his. Blue’s too shy. Jazz definitely isn’t shy. Sideswipe… yeah, he’s going to be a worse gremlin now that he knows what’s possible. For Ironhide, he’s older and is going to treat reader more like a kid until he starts getting to know them. And probably after that, too.

For sparking, they have to combine interfacing and sparkplay at the same time between a fully bonded pair (this is just my take for the sake of my fics), so as long they’re experimenting with one or the other or the bond isn’t complete, they’re safe. The fact that it’s taboo, though makes it more enticing since they don’t realize there can be repercussions. Assuming, like Star and TFP Megs did, that there’s nothing to spark bond to, so they can just have the euphoric feel of someone touching their spark without any consequences.

What’s I’m calling ‘IDW’ is inspired by the characterizations from the comics since they got a bit more fleshed out, but also the G1 cartoons. It’s an AU I’m creating using bits of each. Pretty much both sides had crashed on earth a long time ago, but only recently came online and started scouting for resources. They’re aware of each other on Earth, but aside from a few small skirmishes, the war’s not in full swing again yet as both sides try to hoard energon and materials they’ll need once the fighting really starts. The military hasn’t discovered them yet since they just snatch any humans that see them and otherwise are laying low. Haven’t decided about Unicron, yet.

I do take liberties with timelines. In the pieces I’m lumping under ‘Lost Light’ on the Masterlist. Those fics all happen around the same time, but might be characters from IDW’s MTMTE or RID arcs with liberties taken. Flywheels was already gone from the Scavengers. Tarn and the DJD aren’t aware that the war is over yet or that Megatron has defected. Sunder is on the Lost Light already after being captured for his murders, but Pharma is still harvesting T-cogs for Tarn and hasn’t reencountered Ratchet or unleashed his rust plague out of desperation. Ambulon and First Aid are on Delphi with him in that fic and unaware of his activities.

I also tend to sidestep some events. Breakdown needs to live for what I have planned for him and Knockout.

But yeah, this is just the nonsense way my brain works, so don’t take anything too seriously since I just write for fun

mtmte liveblog issue 9

back at it again, and its time for the shadowplay arc, HELL yeah

oh I'm so excited i love this arc lets DO this

oooh its nightbeat and quark!! way before they become relevant, which is so cool

‘one of those recepticon fanatics’ lmao imagine if they were...the recepticons. just doesn't have the same ring to it 

god i fucking love all the politics of mtmte. i love how they’re talking about the senate here before we really get to See how bad they were (we heard a bit about it from whirl a few issues ago, and now here)

love how nightbeat is pretty much agreeing with the decepticon ideology here, even if its clear that he isn't Actually a decepticon - it just drives home the fact that, in this story, The Decepticons Were Right About A Lot Of That Stuff (or at least, they had a reason other than ‘destruction’ for rebelling). 

AND THEN THERES RUNG!!!!!!! WITH HIS MODEL OF THE LOST LIGHT....god i fuckgin LOVE the continuity in this story bc the first time reading this ur like oh ok rung is old yea makes sense...but then later all the time travel stuff happens and then its like OHHHHH 

damn poor rung nightbeat can rlly tell he's lonely just by looking at him vbhjdkdfhbjsjkdf geez. also nightbeat that's ur mystery stick bf from the future js!!

quarks extreme POV on all of the stuff is so interesting, and makes so much sense bc of Course he would think that as a non-combatant scientist who, due to his functional value in current society, wouldn't really benefit much from a revolution - in fact, he’d probably lose a lot. and that’s the sort of thing where you’re like, ok well think about everyone else dude, have some perspective - but at the same time, quark did suffer a pretty terrible fate, so his fears weren't entirely unfounded...augh, its so fascinating...im sorry I'm not gonna shut up about space robot politics this Entire time

HOW did nobody notice that dead body before now

ratchet spray-painting the hands he stole from pharma to match his own paintjob is like...kinda gruesome if you think about it hvbhsjkdfbkjdf

i love rewind sooo much oh my god 

he rlly stashed rung’s comatose body in a wheelchair behind the bar hbkjdhfbshjkdf rewind 

rewind and chromedome’s tag-team explanation....ough hhhhh THEM 

wait a sec, rewind, you have medical records in your database? that is, at least according to regular medical laws, very illegal lmao. my favorite long-running theme in mtmte: the fact that hipaa and osha laws on cybertron are either basically nonexistent, or just universally disregarded 

what the actual fuck is up w/cybertronian time units. that shit is wack as hell 

ooh i love how chromedome looks different in the flashback - no shoulder tires! - that's a cool detail

how come prowl just said ‘minute,’ rewind was busting it up w/all the wack ass fantasy time units just a second ago. geez

also goddd i love the scenery of pre-war cybertron, its SUCH a cool setting like, visually and aesthetically and politically

like, i adore details like the sign in the bg that says ‘everyone’s shape serves a purpose.’ really adds to the ‘society on the precipice of civil war currently controlled by an increasingly-desperate faction who are doling out propaganda like crazy in an attempt to maintain their image and control over the populace’ vibe

good ole murder mystery setup. love it!

pre-war prowl is such an interesting character. actually prowl in general is such an interesting character...I kinda wrote him off during my first read of mtmte (and even a little during my second readthru) as just this dude who’s an asshole (espec bc my prev tf experience involved watching tfa as a kid, and this prowl is very different from tfa prowl lol)...but prowl is SUCH a multi-faceted and interesting character, even in the relatively little we see of him in mtmte 

plus it was interesting to learn later that prowl was one of the characters that jro wanted for mtmte and didn't get, and MAN i wish he got prowl bc I would've loved to see what jro would've done w/prowl on the lost light, that would've been amazing. like, just imagine the arc he would have...I have no idea what that arc would BE, but I know it would be awesome. plus I’d be really interested to see how prowl would factor in, relationships-wise, amongst the crew of the lost light. so much potential!

anyways. I'm in a very talky mood tonight it seems. its currently 4 am so that kinda explains it. ok, moving on!

chromedome and prowl bantering....in their own morbid forensic-cop way...

skids bvhjdbsfjasf. speaking what we’re all thinking: is prowl gonna keep showing up in mtmte despite not technically being part of the cast??

swerves drawing of prowl lmaoooo

AND THEN REWIND IN SOME OF MY FAVORITE MTMTE PANELS....fuckgin cracks me up every time god. rewind was rlly about to flip their entire ass table just to demonstrate that prowl is a serial table-flipper...and then he cant even make the table budge and he just stares at his hands like ‘how could you betray me like this’ hvbajkhhsfdhksdf PEAK hilarity

drift hvbshfdjbasdfj his forcibly cheery expression even tho he’s being harassed by rodimus, who is a big whiny toddler w/drift lmao 

rodimus is the type of guy who, upon drift not replying to one of his texts, would post a whole twitter thread being all like ‘these days u cant trust any1 to hav ur back...u think u kno someone and then they just ghost you...(1/14)’

again, rewind, HOW and WHY do you just Have medical reports, oh my god, somebody please call a hipaa agent I’m scared, 

ratchet interrupting the story to give a quick medical PSA....that's Such an on-brand thing for Me to do that I feel like jro is assigning me ratchet kin as I read this

also, hey, its sonic and boom, those two decepticons from delphi! nice little continuity there

AND HERES ORION PAX SUPER COP

can’t believe idw made my dad optimus prime into a cop. smh. shouldn't be that shocked tho, I feel like half the idw characters are cops

orion rlly hit them w/the omae wa mo shinderu arrest strat

orion: I cant believe you're beating this guy up. anyways, now I'm gonna beat YOU up,

when ratchet puts his hand over drifts mouth and then gets spray paint on drifts face bhjdfsvsdjhfgbjdskf

pre-war ratchet and drift ;_; ratchet’s little inspirational speech...the fact that he tells drift that he’s special...the fact that drift remembered all of this even after 4 million+ yrs...it gets me bro it GETS me

ALSO the layers in the fact that drift then goes on to become a well-known murderous decepticon...so this little scene of him and ratchet in the past gives a lot of context to ratchet’s general attitude towards drift - ratchet clearly feels at least somewhat responsible for all the blood on drift’s hands, since he saved drift’s life way back in the day

the whole relinquishment clinic thing is such cool worldbuilding, bc of course that's the kind of thing that would develop in a society of robot aliens who are only allowed to work within the rigid confines of their alt mode 

I love the whole matrix thing bc its kinda like being the pope or st but also you have a ton of political sway, so its a super important position, so of Course the corrupt senate would want full control over that power, and would assassinate the current prime to try to get their own guy in 

god vhbhjsdkbgshjdf rodimus is such a dick lmao poor drift

HHHHH I love that the cybertronian version of an autopsy is taking the dudes body apart into the smallest components and laying them all out. that's so fucking cool

hmmmm chromedome maybe you should Not be interested in mnemology, how about that,

oh god. time to start being sad about op and senator shockwave. oh god

senator shockwave more like senator sexy 

also the first time I read this I thought I had just missed his name and like halfway thru the story I went back and scoured the pages looking for it hbvhsjdfbshgfdsbj then I was like oh ok so we’re maybe supposed to just know who this guy is from another comic? but NOPE it was very deliberate and I only realized very close to the end that they were setting up some sort of reveal

its funny bc normally I'm not a huge fan of stories where politics play a huge role but I fuckgin love it here, the politics and worldbuilding is all so interesting and also balanced out with a healthy dose of cool sci-fi hijinks, so

lmao there's chromedome being obsessed w/people making the ‘pfft’ sound 

also wow yet more hindsight, maybe you Shouldn’t be so interested in the Institute, chromedome, 

OHHHH shit I forgot abt the red alert stuff happening at the same time as this :( :( :( 

AUGHHH what a fucked up situation. god 

oooof i gotta continue now!! what a solid issue, I love the shadowplay arc

Age of Empires IV could bring back RTS in a big way this fall https://ift.tt/3s4rOnT

Microsoft gave fans a deep dive into Age of Empires IV today, and the game looks beautiful. It looks like it could give real-time strategy games on the PC a much-neeeded shot in the arm.

The company’s Relic Entertainment division has been making the game since 2017, and it finally announced it will be arriving on the PC on Windows 10, Xbox Game Pass for PC, and Steam during the fall of 2021. The fan event was a celebration of Age of Empires for those who miss the The Town Center. I feel like this RTS genre should be a mass market, not a niche.

RTS games are best played as mouse-and-keyboard games, and are far harder to play with a game controller. That has meant that the games can’t reach as many fans and they haven’t been as popular, even though they’re hard to develop. We’ve seen big lapses in Blizzard Entertainment’s RTS efforts in brand new installments in franchises such as StarCraft and Warcraft.

Above: You can zoom in pretty close in Age of Empires IV.

While Microsoft’s Age of Empires franchise has been stalled since 2005 (with the exception of some retro remakes), other key players have been carrying the RTS flag. Sega’s The Creative Assembly has a thriving Total War series, with the latest titles coming including Total War: Warhammer III and Total War: Rome Remastered. Meanwhile, Eugen Systems has been doing a great job with World War II titles with its Steel Division series. Other startups working on RTS titles are Frost Giant Studios and SunSpear games.

But Age of Empires IV could really fill the RTS gap. Microsoft’s success with Age of Empires started in 1997, and the marriage of history and RTS generated so much revenue that, in addition to Microsoft Flight Simulator, the game enabled a vast expansion in the company’s game investments and ultimately led to the debut of the Xbox game console in 2001.

Age of Empires and its sequels sold more than 20 million copies, but Microsoft shut down the studio that made it, Ensemble Studios, in 2009, during the Great Recession after attempts to branch out like Halo Wars met with limited success. Other games had higher priorities at Microsoft.

A new game

But this new game takes advantage of the last 15-plus years of graphics improvements that allow for much more detail to be used in the individual characters and buildings that make up the scenes in 4K HDR battlefields.

The game will have eight civilizations and Microsoft has revealed four so far. Today, Relic showed the Delhi Sultanate (which features elephant units), and it also showed campaigns of William the Conquerer in England, as well as campaigns in China with the Mongols and sea warfare.

Relic said the civilizations will play very differently, with strengths and weaknesses that play out  across campaign maps as well as randomly generated maps. The game will have four campaigns such as the Norman conquest of England.

Above: Age of Empires IV takes advantage of 4K graphics.

Players will be able to stage ambushes with stealth, which allows players to hide their units from the enemy unless scouts spot them first. Soldiers can also fend off attackers by shooting down from castle walls while attackers can use siege weapons.

Microsoft also said the classic titles — Definitive Edition of Age of Empires II and III — will be updated, as Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition will get a Dawn of Dukes expansion and co-op play this year. Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition will add the U.S. and an African expansion.

I’m looking forward to have real choices for RTS games in the future, and Age of Empires IV looks like it could consume an awful lot of my time.

Self-driving automobiles head for Las Vegas shopper electronics present

New Post has been published on https://takenews.net/self-driving-automobiles-head-for-las-vegas-shopper-electronics-present/

Self-driving automobiles head for Las Vegas shopper electronics present

With hundreds of thousands of autonomous automobiles anticipated on our roads a decade from now, who’s going to show all of them to drive?

Perhaps you, if Intel subsidiary Mobileye will get its manner. And never solely does it count on you to pay for the privilege, it thinks you’ll be excited by it.

Mobileye, and different companies together with Nvidia, Visteon and Toyota are working to make automobile electronics as a lot part of this 12 months’s CES occasion in Las Vegas as shopper electronics.

New know-how Mobileye is displaying at CES 2018 in Las Vegas this week will enable automobiles with superior driver help methods (ADAS) corresponding to lane-keeping or adaptive cruise management to look at how and the place you drive, gathering information that will probably be of use to totally autonomous automobiles sooner or later. Its crowd-sourcing on wheels.

Mobileye expects that auto makers together with BMW, VW and Nissan will promote hundreds of thousands of automobiles outfitted with front-facing cameras and the fourth technology of its EyeQ chips this 12 months. As ther homeowners drive round, these chips will scan their environment and construct detailed maps relating highway options to stationary landmarks corresponding to site visitors indicators and buildings.

The chips are highly effective sufficient to condense 300 hundred million pixels per second of video into simply 10 kilobytes of mapping information per kilometer, in accordance with Mobileye’s Chief Communications Officer, Dan Galves.

That condensed information is then uploaded to Mobileye’s cloud database, a part of what it calls its Street Expertise Administration program, the place it may be used to coach and information future autonomous automobiles.

Drivers involved about privateness needn’t fear, mentioned Galves: The info is anonymized. The one factor Mobileye information about its origin is the model of car it got here from, and that’s solely due to revenue-sharing agreements it has with sure auto makers.

Mobileye’s EyeQ4 chip is highly effective sufficient for so-called Stage 2 and Stage three autonomous automobiles — ones that help drivers with steering and braking, or do all the driving beneath human supervision. It expects 11 auto makers to launch automobiles containing the chip this 12 months or subsequent.

https://www.nhtsa.gov/technology-innovation/automated-vehicles-safety

Additional out, it expects many vehicle makers to undertake its subsequent technology chip, the EyeQ5. Constructing a Stage four or Stage 5 autonomous car, able to driving with out human supervision, ought to be potential with simply a few these chips and an Intel Atom processor, in accordance with Galves. The mix can ship round 50 tera-operations per second of processing at a decrease price and energy consumption than competing architectures that require a number of hundred tera-ops to realize the identical outcomes he mentioned.

Mobileye is now working with Chinese language auto maker SAIC on Stage three, four and 5 autonomous automobiles, it mentioned at CES. SAIC may also deploy the REM information gathering system in China, working with native mapping firm NavInfo.

Different chip makers and electronics aren’t simply going sit again and watch whereas Intel drives off with the entire market; they’re pushing for his or her share too.

Auto elements maker Visteon has been speaking up its personal autonomous car platform, DriveCore, for the reason that center of final 12 months, however now you’ll be able to lastly see the , software program and improvement surroundings within the firm’s sales space at CES.

Toyota Analysis Institute has wheeled out its newest autonomous car in Vegas too. Its “Platform three.zero,” constructed on a Lexus LS 600hL, features a 360-degree sensor system that may “see” as much as 200 meters, the corporate mentioned.

Nvidia can be on the present. Its CEO Jensen Huang mentioned the corporate is working with Aurora Innovation on a platform for Stage four and 5 autonomous automobiles, constructed round Nvidia’s DRIVE Xavier processor. VW’s ID Buzz, an electrical microbus due on the roads round 2022, in the meantime, may have an AI copilot constructed on Nvidia’s Drive IX processor, he mentioned.

Uber, the ride-hailing firm, is planning a fleet of self-driving automobiles and vans, and their AI methods will use Nvidia chips, Huang mentioned.

Rival ride-hailing firm Lyft has its imaginative and prescient of a self-driving transport system on the highway in Las Vegas this week. It’s partnered with Aptiv (previously Delphi Automotive) to supply rides round city in automobiles loaded with the corporate’s autonomous applied sciences. These are solely Stage three automobiles, needing a human driver to get them out of and again into parking tons, however again in Palo Alto Lyft is engaged on Stage 5 driving applied sciences of its personal.

[delphi-dreamin]

I told myself I wasn't gonna catch feels for Luffy. I keep telling myself this.

...I might be fighting a losing battle.

[delphi-dreamin]

Of course. Of course my stupid, dumb, idiot brain would see one of those closeup profile shots of just the lower half of his face and go, "Bite his lip."

OF FUCKING COURSE IT WOULD

[delphi-dreamin]

Went a little feral last night and made a reference sheet for the OP version of Delphi. 🙈

[delphi-dreamin]

So...I've been working on my OP sona recently...this version of Delphi is a fire dancer/fire eater and (hopefully obviously) part of Buggy's crew.

[delphi-dreamin]

If they don't want me to want to bite him, then why do they keep showing those profile shots of the lower half of his face WITH HIS BOTTOM LIP LOOKING THAT BITABLE?

[delphi-dreamin]

Shit fuck god dammit

This stupid, whimsical, power-of-friendship motherfucker...

[delphi-dreamin]

I just want pretty pictures of OP!Delphi and Buggy kissing...but I'd have to draw them. 😭😭😭

[delphi-dreamin]

My resolve gets thinner every time he makes that serious face...🙈

I told myself I wasn't gonna catch feels for Luffy. I keep telling myself this.

...I might be fighting a losing battle.

[delphi-dreamin]

I know I couldn't beat him in a fight. But I want to fight him just so that he'll look at me like that.

Of course. Of course my stupid, dumb, idiot brain would see one of those closeup profile shots of just the lower half of his face and go, "Bite his lip."

OF FUCKING COURSE IT WOULD

[delphi-dreamin]

Hey, so, who wants to help me beat Spandam until he resembles this:

Oh, Chopper...
