I think I got cursed this year and seek advice.

Because from the start of 2024 a lot of bad stuff happened (from annoying "this thing broke, buy a new thing", to health issues, to loss of a cat due to surgery complications), and just when I thought this shit streak ended — mom got sick, then I got sick and wrecked my wrist at the same time, and just when I started to feel better and ready to do fun stuff — another thing broke and we had to take our other cat to the vet, who says that we need surgery ASAP and I'm here, shaking and clocking out of reality, because it's been less than three month ago when we lost our other cat. From the same type of surgery.

So, yeah, any blessing rituals? Good luck charms? Thoughs and prayers, all that stuff? Because I definitely need it for the Saturday and a week or two after, so that my cat will definitely be OK.

Oi hear me out on this okay, focus with me for a second

I haven't seen this dbh trope anywhere it came to me in a prophetic vision

this is for those who despair over seeing ships or tropes that make them uncomfortable while they do their little scrolly-scroll on ao3, acting like they aren’t responsible for their own internet experience

(alternatively, the back button also works)

rk1700 but there's two more Eights. rk3300? Anyway, Quentin and his Angels are done. I'm sorry, it's very difficult for me to be active with all the news and electricity blackouts and my immune system goign downhill, but I do hope on getting better and sharing more of Kink Garden AU.

for the record, this is what it feels like when you like and reblog us, small artists

I don't think androids store memories as videos or that they can even be extracted as ones. Almost, but not exactly.

Firstly, because their memories include other data such as their tactile information, their emotional state, probably 3d markers of their surrounding...a lot of different information. So, their memories are not in a video-format, but some kind of a mix of many things, that may not be as easily separated from each other. I don't think a software necessary to read those types of files are publicly available.

Even if they have some absolute massive storage, filming good-quality videos and storing them is just not an optimal way to use their resources. It's extremely wasteful. I think, instead, their memories consist of snapshots that are taken every once in a while (depending on how much is going on), that consist of compressed version of all their relevant inputs like mentioned above. Like, a snapshot of a LiDAR in a specific moment + heavily compressed photo with additional data about some details that'll later help to upscale it and interpolate from one snapshot into the next one, some audio samples of the voices and transcript of the conversation so that it'd take less storage to save. My main point is, their memories are probably stored in a format that not only doesn't actually contain original video material, but is a product of some extreme compression, and in this case reviewing memories is not like watching HD video footage, but rather an ai restoration of those snapshots. Perhaps it may be eventually converted into some sort of a video readable to human eye, but it would be more of an ai-generated video from specific snapshots with standardised prompts with some parts of the image/audio missing than a perfectly exact video recording.

When Connor extracts video we see that they are a bit glitchy. It may be attributed to some details getting lost during transmission from one android to another, but then we've also got flashbacks with android's own memories, that are just as "glitchy". Which kinda backs up a theory of it being a restoration of some sort of a compressed version rather than original video recording.

Then we've also got that scene where Josh records Markus where it is shown that when he starts to film, his eyes indicate the change that he is not just watching but recording now. Which means that is an option, but not the default. I find it a really nice detail. Like, androids can record videos, but then the people around them can see exactly when they do that, and "be at ease" when they don't. It may be purely a design choice, like that of the loading bar to signalise that something is in progress and not just frozen, or mandatory shutter sound effect on smartphones cameras in Japan.

So, yeah. Androids purpose is to correctly interpret their inputs and store relevant information about it in their long term memory, and not necessarily to record every present moment in a video-archive that will likely never be seen by a human and reviewed as a pure video footage again. If it happened to be needed to be seen — it'll be restored as a "video" file, but this video won't be an actual video recording unless android was specifically set to record mode.

I have another rk1700 (?) WIP, but I had a level up in the middle of tight sketch, and now I have to redo-it.

[lcs69]

I really want to info dump about Kink Garden AU for DBH, where in post-revolution Detroit Connor found a bunch of inactive rk800 and rk900 and decided to build a mafia family with lots of rk1600/rk1700/and other combos. But I'm also terribly afraid of taking into the void, which is... Probably gonna happen anyway. At least this place allows for longer posts.

February 16th. Little Lady died from complications after successful surgery and being happy at home for one single day. Back at the clinic, without us getting to say goodbye to her. Fuck this life.

Universe decided that this year too, it's gonna hate me. As if full-on war wasn't enough, since 1st January I have to deal with illnessess, work overload, things breaking, things being replaced, things being repaired, and now my Little Lady The Cat is in surgery to remove a benign tumor, that may have turned cancerous, because they found another mass in her lung.

It's only 13th of February, for fuck's sake.

Got bad flu half way down, so have it like it is. My wish is to have at least 1 image per month, and this one is for January 2024.

Portraits of Oswald and Lacie Baskerville from Pandora Hearts (my absolute favorite manga ever).

There are too much I wanna say, but I'd rather draw:) I really need some good vibes (and good endings) for all of them 😭✨️
