Writing Magicians

If you are drafting or deepening a magician character, consider these personality traits and common characteristics of magicians. Your magician doesn't have to be set in stone or have all of these traits.

Intelligent

Magic requires a critical, quick, analytical mind to practice and implement. Must be capable of making difficult decisions.

Good Memory

For memorizing spells, potions ingredient lists, rituals and anatomy of magical creatures.

Creative

Magicians need to adapt existing spells and rituals to the situation

Self-disciplined and focused

Casting a spell or conducting a ritual requires the magicians to have unwavering focus and self-control.

Patient

Magic takes time to practice, especially if it's not a talent that you're born with. You also need patience to calm your human sacrifices down and make those stupider than you understand what's going on.

Highly trained

Mere talent is not enough. Practice - and pain - makes perfect.

Specialist

Magicians will have a spell/an element/a potion they are exceptionally good at

Musical

Many forms of magic involve drumming or chanting, or even singing.

Spiritual

Many forms of magic are linked with religious practices or concepts. Your magician might be heralded as a spiritual saint, or hunted for being a heathen.

Prayers are often a part of magic rituals.

Studious

Magicians are always keen to learn more, expanding their skills range, acquiring news spells, understanding different forms of magic and exploring scientific subjects.

Many magicians will amass books, or sign up for every available online class.

Well-orgnized and Methodical

The best magicians always have information and ingredients at hand and know where to find them.

They prepare thoroughly before rituals and have Plan B,C,D ready

Introvert

Many magicians like quietude and solitude in which they can recharge to practice a new spell in peace.

However, some magicians love social gatherings, maybe even showing off their power.

Ethical

Magic gives a person power, and requires moral judgements to apply this power wisely. You magician protagonist will be ethically challenged, but pull through difficult decisions guided by his good heart.

You magician villains, of course, will fall due to their unethical practice of power.

Sharp Sense

Your magician is likely to have a goos sense of smell/sight/sound, so that they can tell poisons part and catch the exact note of the chant.

Descended from Magicians

Magic is often portrayed as a talent that is passed down generations. It can be of blood (you must have "magical blood", so to speak), or it can be a guarded family secret.

On the flip side, your hero can be the only one with magical talent in a family with no such powers.

Psychic

Although magical and psychic gifts are separate matters, the power of foresight is often considered a branch of magic.

If your hero is a psychic, make sure it has limitations and consequences!

Day Job

Few magicians practice openly. Even if the magician earns money from her practice, she'd want to disguise her identity and pretend to work a more everyday job.

Many modern magicians work in the medical sector; other are employed in scientific, engineering or the arts field.

Pet

Magicians are known for thei close relationships with animals.

This can be a typical pet, or a mythical animal, or perhaps an incarnation of the devil, who knows?

I am a little aggressive right now, so I hope you will excuse my slightly sharp tone in this post.

And I mean this. This is a venting post, if you do not want to see this on your dash, scroll on and don't dare to come into my replies or IMs and tell me how incorrigible I am for making a post like this about the YuGiOh RPC.

I thought, this RPC could change and finally mature a little. I hoped the people in it could mature over the mental age of 5 years.

Apparently I was wrong and have judged most of the people in this RPC on wishful thinking.

Now I have been in here on and off for a decade at least and I had the exclusive fun and joy of experiencing and being involved in various dramatic antics.

Usually I kept my head low and wouldn't say anything about the theft, about snide comments, about people threatening me in my asks or more privately on discord, about people trying to manipulate me or outright demand my attention for themselves with emotional pressure.

I have dealt with my fair share here and I am fucking sick of it.

How can it happen over and over that people come to me crying, depressed, or telling me they won't come online anymore, that they delete their accounts. What the fuck is wrong with your toxic asses??

How about you simply learn to open your mouth like a goddamn normal person and talk to people about things that stress you out, be fucking honest for once!

This mistreating of people is so sickening and I am so pissed off about seeing it over and over again. Do you want to be threatened, ghosted, stone walled, gaslighted and manipulated?? Then WHY are you doing it to other people?!

I haven't been on here much and maybe I have made the best fucking decision of my life.

Maybe this childish, immature kicking on those that feel weaker than you, simply because you can and because not having friends that are PERFECT from top to bottom is UNCOMFORTABLE for your dumb bloody feelings is your type of poison, I don't give a shit anymore.

Just don't expect me to come here and shut up anymore, or god forbid be N I C E to you, because you are fucking up so bad that, you can be assured, if I had the possibility to go berserk on you I probably would right now.

I am beyond livid.

Sorry for all the people, who had to read this in vain, because I doubt that anything is going to go into the fucking skulls of the few people that simply don't understand, how interacting with another feeling and living being works.

I hope you will have a nice fucking day, because some of us never will never catch a single fucking break from losing friends to your BULLSHIT anymore.

“The transfer of True Lies has a truly vile quality to it, a feeling like someone clandestinely dosed you with LSD just a hair below the threshold. At times it can look passable in motion, but then you notice something out of the corner of your eye: a thick fold of skin, a framed photo of a child, folders that are too thick at the margins, cheeks that look rendered. It’s that familiar dread at the pit of your gut when you spot AI generated imagery, a combination of edges not looking quite right and surfaces that are simultaneously too smooth and too sharp. A crime was committed here, and you can tell.

The transfers of Aliens and The Abyss are markedly less bad than True Lies, but I still have difficulty watching them. The skin looks sterile and waxy with too much film grain removed. Everything looks like it has raytracing on. Both transfers are, however, within acceptable parameters for most normal people.

The recent transfer of Titanic got a similar treatment, with similarly mixed reactions online.

“Why would you do this?” is a logical question. It’s worth contextualizing who handled these “restorations” – namely Park Road Post, a subsidiary of Peter Jackson’s WingNut Films. They have worked on multiple films in the past, but the two that are most germane here are Jackson’s They Shall Not Grow Old and the 3-part Disney+ documentary The Beatles: Get Back. Both movies recontextualize pre-existing footage and, importantly, do so with an aggressive use of machine learning. They Shall Not Grow Old upscales and colorizes old World War I imagery in an attempt to set the bloodshed in a more modern context, while Get Back recycled footage shot for Michael Lindsay-Hogg’s Let It Be, including moments never before seen by the public, to elucidate the process behind the creation of some of The Beatles’ most iconic songs.

(…)

I wish we had stopped Jackson then and there. As my good friend Danielle joked, this was a trial balloon. People praised Jackson for doing this to Lindsay-Hogg’s footage in the name of restoration, and it emboldened him to do worse things. Before the True Lies debacle, the most recent example of this was the aggressively saccharine and confusing Now & Then, a long unfinished demo now finished by Ringo and Paul, edited together with archival footage of younger John and George composited in an a fashion that can be charitably described as tremendously weird.

Lest I am accused of being a luddite, I firmly believe there are many use cases for this technology. Nvidia’s DLSS and competing variants generally work very well on the games they are trained on. I regularly use Flowframes in the rare case that I need interpolation. I have often used waifu2x and now chainner if I need to photoshop a still and my source is bad, and there are databases of countless AI upscaling models. But the flip side to this is that these technologies are often used in place of proper ingest. “Crap in, crap out” is a truism for a reason. I spend a lot of time regularly capturing VHS and Laserdisc at the highest possible quality for fun, and when I see people who should know better say “Just use Topaz” (a commercial AI upscaler) instead of learning how to correctly ingest footage and deinterlace it, it makes me want to pull out my hair, because it almost uniformly looks bad to anyone who works with video professionally.

When you finally do see a piece of footage transferred well, it can be breathtaking. Good archival practices require a lot of institutional knowledge and labor. It’s an art when done well, and the people who do it care so much about what they do. But the modern application of much of AI is precisely about taking labor out of the equation. Why transfer a tape correctly when we can just have a computer guess badly instead? What if crap goes in, and it doesn’t come out?

What makes all of this worse is that True Lies, as I understand it, did not need to be shoved through the AI wringer. According to The Digital Bits, Park Road Post had a recent 4k scan of True Lies from the original camera negative. Park Road Post’s own website claims they have a Lasergraphics Director 10K film scanner on the premises. So what is the purpose of adding AI to this mix? Why do that to a perfectly fine-looking film? What is gained here, other than to slightly yassify an Arnold film? At this point, maybe they are simply doing it just to say that they did, because the technology is lying around, like a loaded gun with the safety off.

Nerds who post on blu-ray forums as a rule often need to calm down, and the forum threads I have read about this are no exception, but there are certain cases where a filmmaker is just wrong about how their films should look. Lucas is the infamous notable example, but Cameron is not innocent here in his treatment of his own films. Wong Kar-wai is another notable example, as what he did to Ashes of Time is criminal as was his recent “remasters” of his movies like In The Mood For Love. In certain rare conditions like this, it’s healthy to question if directors have the best interests of their own films in mind, as Cameron himself personally approved of these remasters.

What actually chills my blood more than anything is the thought that a lot of people think this all looks pretty good. You see this mindset at work whenever an AI fetishist posts a stable diffusion image of a woman with 13 fingers, 40 incisors and comically huge breasts. There’s an entire portion of the population that takes overt pleasure in the over-smoothed, perverts that prefer all media to be fast, high frame rate, and scrubbed squeaky clean. The cameras on our phones don’t simply capture images anymore, they compute them and ‘optimize’ them. It’s Italian Futurism in 4k, a noise reduction death drive. It’s not simply enough for much of digital cinema to look crystal clear and lifeless; the past should be denoised, grain managed and cleaned to conform to that standard. It is expedient and profitable if people don’t remember what film is supposed to look like.

I don’t think anyone gets into preservation to destroy film. I believe that everyone involved with this process worked hard and had the best interests of the film in mind, but the exact nature of restoration itself can vary wildly. I believe that some companies get blinded by new tech, get high on their own supply, and that can result in work that is destructive instead of restorative. I don’t know what the solution to this is in the world we live in, outside of decoupling film preservation from the profit motive whenever possible.

But I am certain about one thing. For a while, much of gaming tried looking like Aliens. Now, Aliens looks like a video game. And that doesn’t sit right with me.”

PS5 Pro: The Next Evolution in Gaming Consoles

Sony's PlayStation 5 (PS5) has revolutionized the gaming landscape since its release in late 2020. Building upon this success, Sony introduced the PS5 Pro in November 2024, aiming to offer gamers enhanced performance, superior graphics, and an overall immersive gaming experience.​

Introduction

The PS5 Pro is an upgraded version of the original PS5, featuring significant hardware enhancements designed to meet the growing demands of modern gaming. Priced at $699.99, the PS5 Pro offers a range of improvements over its predecessor.

Key Features of the PS5 Pro

Enhanced Graphics Processing Unit (GPU)

One of the most notable upgrades in the PS5 Pro is its GPU. The new GPU boasts 67% more compute units and 28% faster memory compared to the standard PS5. This enhancement results in up to 45% faster rendering, delivering smoother gameplay and improved visual fidelity. ​

Advanced Ray Tracing Capabilities

Ray tracing technology simulates realistic lighting, shadows, and reflections, significantly enhancing visual realism. The PS5 Pro's advanced ray tracing capabilities allow for dynamic reflection and refraction of light, enabling rays to be cast at double or even triple the speeds of the original PS5.

AI-Driven Upscaling with PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR)

To further enhance image quality, the PS5 Pro introduces PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR), an AI-driven upscaling technology. PSSR utilizes machine learning to provide sharp image clarity by adding extraordinary detail, ensuring high frame rates without compromising visual quality. ​

PS5 Pro Game Boost for Backward-Compatible Games

The PS5 Pro includes a "Game Boost" feature that applies to over 8,500 backward-compatible PS4 games. This feature may stabilize or improve the performance of supported games, enhancing resolution and frame rates, and providing a better gaming experience for titles from the previous generation. ​

Enhanced Connectivity and Storage

The PS5 Pro supports Wi-Fi 7 connectivity, offering faster and more reliable online gaming experiences. It also features a larger 2TB solid-state drive (SSD), providing ample storage for modern games, which are increasingly demanding in terms of space. Additionally, the console swaps one of its rear USB-A ports for an extra USB-C port, enhancing peripheral connectivity. ​

Design and Build

Visually, the PS5 Pro resembles the slim version of the original PS5, featuring three stripes down the side. Notably, it does not come with a built-in disc drive. However, gamers have the option to purchase a separate 4K Blu-ray disc drive if they wish to play physical copies of games. ​

Performance Benchmarks

Early reviews and benchmarks indicate that the PS5 Pro delivers on its promises. Games like "Gran Turismo 7" showcase enhanced graphics, with options for 8K resolution and improved ray-tracing modes. Titles such as "Spider-Man 2" and "Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart" benefit from higher frame rates and improved visual fidelity, providing a more immersive gaming experience. ​

Game Library and Enhancements

Sony has collaborated with developers to optimize a growing list of games for the PS5 Pro. Enhanced titles include "Horizon Forbidden West," "The Last of Us Part II Remastered," and "Marvel’s Spider-Man 2," all benefiting from improved graphics and performance. Sony anticipates that up to 50 games will receive PS5 Pro enhancements by the end of 2024. ​

Reception and Reviews

The PS5 Pro has received a mix of reviews from both critics and consumers. Many praise the console's enhanced performance and graphics, highlighting the improvements in ray tracing and upscaling technologies. However, some reviews suggest that the enhancements may not be immediately noticeable to all users, particularly those without compatible 4K TVs or high-end gaming setups. ​

The PS5 Pro is priced at $699.99, which includes the console, a 2TB SSD, a DualSense wireless controller, and a digital copy of "Astro’s Playroom." The disc-less design means that gamers who wish to play physical copies will need to purchase the Disc Drive for PS5 separately for $79. ​

Conclusion

The PS5 Pro represents Sony's commitment to pushing the boundaries of gaming technology, offering significant enhancements in performance, graphics, and overall user experience. While the $699.99 price point positions it as a premium option, gamers seeking the latest advancements in console gaming may find the PS5 Pro to be a worthwhile investment.​

Why Is Platform-Specific Language So… Coded?

Keywords: public sphere, platform vernacular, Instagram, hashtag

The idea of a single, unified public sphere feels almost outdated in the digital age. Instead of one big conversation, we have countless micro-publics scattered across platforms, each with its own slang, rules, and rhythms - its own platform vernacular (Gibbs et al. 2015). These aren't just quirks of communication; they're shaping, filtering, and sometimes straight-up warping how we interact online.

Every platform has its own linguistic DNA. Twitter (or X, if you insist) forces brevity, encouraging sharp takes and shorthand. TikTok, on the other hand, thrives on visual storytelling and performative speech (Manic 2024). Instagram? A mix of aesthetic curation and hashtag-fueled visibility. These platform vernaculars create new ways to connect, but they also gatekeep. If you don’t speak the language, you’re on the outside looking in - what Gillespie (2018) calls vernacular gatekeeping.

And let’s talk about how these codes get tangled up with the platforms themselves. McVeigh-Schultz & Baym (2015) argue that while these vernaculars give users new ways to participate in public discourse, they also create new barriers. You might think you��re just learning the ropes, but you're also playing by the platform’s rules—rules shaped by algorithms that care more about engagement than meaningful discussion (van Dijck & Poell 2013).

Take Instagram’s use of #funeral, for example. It’s not just a tag - it’s a mash-up of mourning, self-expression, and visibility tactics. People use it to share their grief, but also to ensure their posts surface in wider networks. The hashtag becomes a meeting point for personal loss, cultural rituals, and social media logic (Gibbs et al. 2015). What should be a deeply personal moment gets reframed through the lens of a platform designed for reach and validation.

As digital spaces continue to evolve, these shifting codes determine who gets heard, who gets ignored, and how meaning is constructed online. Understanding platform vernaculars isn’t just about keeping up - it’s about recognizing the hidden forces shaping the way we communicate.

Breaking Down the Barriers: Next-Gen Solutions for Crypto Trading Bots

Introduction

Crypto trading bots have become a staple in the trading ecosystem, offering traders the ability to automate their strategies and capitalize on market opportunities without constant manual intervention.However, one of the significant challenges faced by traders is the extreme volatility inherent in the cryptocurrency market. Price swings, news events, and social trends can cause sudden and unpredictable market shifts, which can overwhelm traditional bots with rigid strategies.

In this article, we Discuss how next-gen crypto trading bots are equipped with advanced solutions to handle this volatility more effectively, ensuring more profitable and less risky trades for users.

Understanding Market Volatility

Crypto markets are known for their unpredictability.These fluctuations are driven by a variety of factors:

Global Economic Events

Market Sentiment

High Liquidity 

For traders relying on bots with predefined strategies, these rapid market changes can be challenging. Many bots struggle to adjust to such volatility, which could lead to poor trade execution and significant losses. In response, next-gen bots incorporate advanced features to handle such market unpredictability.

The Role of Crypto Trading Bots in Managing Volatility

Traditional crypto bots often operate based on fixed strategies and are highly sensitive to historical data trends. However, in a volatile market, these bots are slow to adapt, which results in missed opportunities or increased risk.

How do next-gen bots solve this issue?

Machine Learning (ML) Integration: Next-gen bots employ machine learning algorithms that can learn and adapt from market data in real-time. By analyzing historical data, patterns, and trends, these bots continuously optimize their strategies to align with current market conditions.

AI-Powered Predictive Modeling: AI models can forecast market trends more accurately by processing vast amounts of data, making these bots capable of adjusting strategies dynamically. This allows the bot to recognize potential market reversals or continuations faster than a traditional bot.

Real-Time Data Processing: These bots gather and process real-time data, which means they can react instantly to market changes. Unlike bots that rely on past trends, real-time data processing helps them take immediate action based on up-to-date market conditions.

 Next-Gen Solutions for Improved Trading Algorithms

To effectively address market volatility, next-gen crypto trading bots employ several advanced features:

Adaptive Algorithms: These bots are equipped with adaptive algorithms capable of changing trading strategies based on real-time market conditions. This dynamic adjustment helps to mitigate risks during extreme volatility, such as sharp declines or rapid price increases.

Risk Management Tools: Advanced bots offer customizable risk management tools, such as dynamic stop-losses, take-profit levels, and position sizing based on real-time risk assessment. Traders can set risk parameters that the bot will automatically adjust according to the market's current volatility.

Sentiment Analysis: By incorporating sentiment analysis, these bots can assess public sentiment from news sources, social media, and other online platforms to predict market movements driven by psychological factors. This enables them to make better-informed decisions when sentiment-driven price shifts occur.

Backtesting & Optimization: The ability to backtest strategies using historical data and simulate potential market scenarios allows these bots to optimize performance before live trading. Backtesting helps ensure that the bot can adapt to changing market conditions with minimal risk.

Case Study: Successful Implementation of Next-Gen Bots

Consider a situation where the market experiences a sudden crash following negative news or government regulation changes. Traditional bots that rely on static strategies might continue to execute trades based on outdated information, leading to significant losses.

On the other hand, next-gen AI-powered bots like the one offered by COINSQUEENS are designed to quickly adapt to such shocks. For example, our adaptive trading algorithms allow the bot to recognize a market downturn immediately and adjust trading strategies, reducing exposure by closing high-risk positions. Additionally, our real-time risk management tools automatically adjust stop-loss orders, ensuring that losses are minimized while capitalizing on recovery opportunities as the market stabilizes.

Traders using our bot have reported improved profitability and more stable risk management, particularly during highly volatile market phases. This level of adaptability is crucial for navigating the unpredictable crypto landscape, making our bot an essential tool for modern traders.

Conclusion

Crypto trading bots have revolutionized the way traders engage with the market, especially in volatile conditions. While traditional bots often fail to respond to sudden price movements or adjust strategies quickly, next-gen bots powered by AI and machine learning are designed to manage these challenges effectively. By incorporating adaptive algorithms, real-time data processing, and advanced risk management, these bots provide traders with a more flexible and profitable solution.

At COINSQUEENS, our AI-powered crypto trading bots are equipped with cutting-edge technology that continuously evolves to meet the demands of the market. With features like real-time market analysis, adaptive risk strategies, and advanced predictive models, our bots are built to handle volatility, enabling you to trade with confidence.

Explore how our next-gen crypto trading bot can help you stay ahead of the curve in today’s fast-paced market.
