🟨 Appearance Creator Mod Infos Dump

With the release of ACM (Appearance Creator Mod) I wanted to dump some information that might be useful, especially for non-modders that want to play around with it!

(I had no involvement with the making of this mod at all, nor I have any tie with AMM development, just throwing my two cents as a regular user, player and modder)

You'll find some How To, Tutos and other useful heads-up under read more, if you plan on using this mod as a modding tool (sketching up outfits ideas before modding them as custom appearance for your blorbo for example) or simply want to play blorbo dress up!

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

First, You might want to get familiar with these suffix, as you will need to identify what part of a character's outfit you wanna swap

▶ Garments Components Names

h0 - Character's head mesh he - Eyes mesh heb - Eyebrows mesh ht - Teeth mesh hx - Head's details meshes (pimples, makeup...) hh - Hair mesh t0 - Character's Body mesh t1 - Torso Inner Garment (T-shirt, Tank top...) t2 - Torso Outer Garment (Vest, Jacket, Hood...) a0 - Character's Arms mesh (Cyberarms...) l1 - Legs Garment (Pants...) s1 - Feet Garment (Shoes, Socks...) i1 - Accessory / Item Garment (Cyberware, Belt, Necklace...)

▶ Garments Rigs Names

ma - Man Average mb - Man Big mc - Man Child mf - Man Fat mm - Man Massive wa - Woman Average waf - Woman Average Fat

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

⚠ It's important to note that Garments are NOT automatically refited to the character! You can use a WA garment on a Male NPC but it won't magically fit his shape

⚠ Johnny and Kerry, despite using the MA rig, both have a thinner bodies and most of the garment will float and appear larger on them

⚠ A lot of Garments have their own RIGs and physics, and might T-pose / break upon being swapped on your NPC of choice! For this reason, Hair with physics will automatically break as well

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

AMC is a standalone window in game, and not included in AMM main window!

After spawning a NPC, the AMC window should fill up with the spawned entity's garment components (and yes it can get crowded really quick, especially on smaller monitors and resolution)

Yes, It also works on NPVs and NPC+! 🔥

Everything on these windows can be overwhelming especially if you're not familiar with modding, so I'll throw a little example here using Scorpion

First I want to get rid of his hood and vest, without using AMM's custom appearance, using only ACM

In the list, I look for his Vest and his Hood component

We can easily turn them invisible by clicking the "Toggle" button Make sure to also disable any decals, stickers, and additional component (his vest also has a decal component, see in the screenshot)

The little icon next to a component's name indicate it has been edited in some way

I'll now switch his tank top for something else

Click on "Select From List" next to the "Mesh Path" of the desired component (in Scorpion's case, t1_060_ma_tank__corset) Open up the "Torso" list, and you'll be able to click on any of the listed t1 and t2 garments!

⚠ As mentioned above, garments doesn't magically refits on characters; Scorpion use the Man Average body and rig, anything that isn't a "ma" garment won't fit him correctly!

⚠ Another thing to be aware of is that a lot of garments's might break around the collar area! However if you plan on using this same mesh in an outfit, don't let that scare you, as it's easily fixable in blender

Export your desired mesh and look for the "NeckCollar_JNT" bone and simply rename it to "Neck" (blender will put some numbers next to it but that's fine, ignore that)

I'm going to switch to Valentin here to showcase how to deal with potential clipping 🤏 Since Valentin's body is customized, bit chubbier, he always needs refiting

Let's say you swapped your character's top for something else but part of his torso clips out

To put my boys titas away, I'll look for his body component (t0)

Click on "Chunk Mask" to open the garment's submeshes list

Garment's meshes are broken down in multiple submeshes that can be easily chunkmasked (disabled) at will to deal with clipping! This is why NPC usually don't even have a full body mesh when taking off their clothes, they are chunkmasked to avoid clipping :D

I will disable the Submesh 1 by unchecking the "1" box

Don't be afraid to click on multiple box and see what gets chunkmasked on different meshes! You won't break anything 👌

aaand for now that's about all I can think of that might be confusing for users- tho if you have question don't hesitate to ask on this post, to reblog or to come into DMs!

Need more Cypher smut <\3

I am more than happy to oblige :))

Keep It Down (Cypher x F!Reader)

Summary: A little fun time with Cypher in the closet ;)

Pairing: Cypher x F!Reader

Rating: Explicit

Word Count: 715

Warnings: p in v sex, spanking, unsafe sex, creampie

Notes: Inspired by the song “Keep It Down” by Migrant Motel 👅

“Quiet now, dear.” Cypher’s breath was hot in your ear. “We don’t want anyone to hear us, now do we?”

You bit back a moan in response, your breath coming out in short, harsh gasps as Cypher pounded into you from behind. You were currently shoved up against the wall inside a supply closet, the direct result of throwing one too many innuendos his way after a team meeting full of sexual tension. Uncharacteristically impatient, Cypher had refused to wait long enough to get back to your room, leading to your predicament.

Cypher gripped your hips fiercely, no doubt leaving bruises for you to find when you returned to the dorms later. “Naughty girl,” he panted. “Teasing me so cruelly like that, when you know I’ve missed you so much—”

You let out a low whine. You couldn’t help it; he’d been gone for almost a week on a mission in Russia, and you’d missed him just as much. It had taken all of your strength not to pounce on him during the meeting.

“I’m—mm—I’m s-sorry—” you started to say before you were silenced by a harsh smack to your ass. It wasn’t loud enough to be heard outside the closet, but you felt it, and you had to bite your fist to keep yourself from wailing with pleasure. You tightened around him hard, making him groan.

Cypher grasped you even tighter, his thrusts erratic with desperation. “Look what you made me do, sokar,” he growled. “I couldn’t even wait to get back to the room—”

All you could do was whimper, pitiful and trapped, your soaked pussy throbbing around him. You wanted to touch him, to grab him, to kiss him, but you were stuck between him and the wall, and he was utterly determined to keep you there. And, as much as you wanted to scream for him, you knew doing so would blow your cover and his.

“Please,” you babbled softly. “Please…”

Though his pace didn’t slow, Cypher lightened his grip ever so slightly, and you shivered as you felt his gloved hand stroke your thigh. “Pretty girl,” he cooed. “You want to cum, don’t you?”

“Y-Yes,” you whispered. “Please, please—”

You felt him spank you again and gasped, clenching around him at the pleasurable sting. “Shhhh.” Cypher soothed your ass gently with his palm. “Quiet, sweetheart. Be good, and I’ll give you what you want.”

You fought the urge to moan in protest, already struggling to keep your volume down. You could feel the cord inside you pulling taut, threatening to snap any moment. He hadn’t even touched your clit, but the second he decided to, you were a goner. You just had to hold on a little longer.

Cypher grunted, hips stuttering as he, too, approached his peak. “Good—good girl,” he breathed. “So tight, so fucking good for me. I missed you—zouina—”

You stifled your whimpers, growing more shrill with every stroke he delivered. You wanted to tell him you’d missed him too, beg him to make you cum—you were so goddamn close—but you held your tongue. Please. Please, please, please…

You felt his hand suddenly between your legs, his fingers going straight for your clit and circling the tight bud with urgency. “Cum for me,” he hissed. “Come on. Now.”

Just that little bit of contact was all it took. You slapped your hand over your mouth and came, clamping down on his cock like your life depended on it. Cypher yanked you flush against him, gasping and shuddering as he emptied inside you at the same time. He buried his face into your neck, holding you close as the two of you rode the wave of your highs.

When you finally stilled in his arms, he kissed your cheek and released you, refitting his mask over his face. He retrieved his hat from the shelf he’d placed it on, straightening it on his head as you began to pull your pants back up. You winced at the sight between your legs, pale fluid dripping down your inner thighs. “I don’t suppose there are any paper towels in here?” you asked, looking around with a soft laugh.

Cypher chuckled. “I don’t see any,” he said. “I suppose you’ll just have to wear my gift back to your room, kitten.”

An introduction to VR multiple units, part 5: Sm6

The Sm6 Allegro. When I started this series about our multiple units, I first thought I would cover the Sm6 in the "operated for others" -series, then thought I would leave it out altogether... but events overtook my plans and now I'm introducing them as VR's own multiple units, although they are not yet in operation as VR trains.

An Sm6 unit on the Kerava-Lahti line, currently the only bit of high-speed rail in Finland, 2011. Teemu Peltonen, Vaunut.org.

Since the 1990s, two daily return trains had been operated between Helsinki and Saint Petersburg, Russia: the Sibelius, which used VR carriages, and the Repin, which used RŽD carriages. In 2006, the two rail operators decided to replace the locomotive-hauled trains, which took five hours to make the trip, with jointly-owned high-speed trains. For this purpose, a new jointly-owned subsidiary Karelian Trains was established.

Two Sm6's during pre-service entry test runs at Vainikkala, the border station between Finland and Russia, with the locomotive-hauled St. Petersburg train Sibelius on the right. Lari Nylund, Vaunut.org.

After a round of tenders, Karelian Trains opted for the Pendolino design (already used by VR in the form of the Sm3) from Alstom in 2007, with four units to be delivered in 2010 (there was also an option for two additional units, which was never taken up). Although the exterior design of the new Sm6 units was almost identical to the Sm3, in terms of technology they feature numerous improvements compared to the older class, and were outfitted to operate both on the Russian and Finnish electric systems. Due to the small difference in gauge between the two countries (Russia uses 1520 mm but Finland 1524 mm) the trains were given near-unique gauge of 1522 mm.

Branded Allegro, the new Sm6 units begun operations in December 2010, cutting the travel time between Helsinki and St. Petersburg to 3½ hours. In addition to services offered on Sm3 units, the Sm6 has (or perhaps more accurately had) a space for the border patrol to use, as passport control was done en-route on the train, and a kid's playroom. The original grey-dominated interiors were replaced by new, more colourful blue designs in 2018-2019.

The new interiors were not in use for long before the Covid-19 pandemic caused for passenger train services between Finland and Russia to be suspended in March 2020. The Allegro services were restored in December 2021 (the Helsinki-Moscow sleeper train Tolstoy, however, was not), and ran for less than four months until closed again in March 2022 after Russia's invasion of Ukraine. (VR subsequently stopped freight traffic to Russia too - other Finnish rail operators continue to serve freight to and from Russia, however).

Second-class carriage in the post-2019 look. VR.

After March 2022, the four Sm6 units languished at VR's Ilmala depot in Helsinki, without maintenance as RŽD refused to make any payments for their share in Karelian Trains (which, although jointly Finnish-Russian owned, was registered in Finland). In March 2023, when Finnish prime minister Sanna Marin visited Kiev, Ukrainian Railroads requested the Sm6 units be handed over to them, but nothing ever came of this. Instead, in December 2023, when Karelian Trains was on the brink of bankruptcy due to RŽD not paying their share of the company's bills, VR bought out Karelian Trains and took over the Sm6 units.

The trains will be given a thorough technical refit, which will include removal of the systems to operate with Russian electrification, and will enter services on routes within Finland in 2025. How they will be branded is unknown, though a VR representative said in an interview they will not be called Allegro. Presumably this will make the Sm6 the first VR rolling stock class to be fully painted in the new livery.

Here is another mysterious Junkers airplane. The (probably retouched) picture from Germany in the 1950s shows a Ju 288 E with heavy armament as a tank destroyer. According to the British author William Green, 17 of the 22 Ju 288 prototypes were lost in crashes. The Ju 288 program was then discontinued and the remaining aircraft were handed over to the Luftwaffe. There they were refitted with a BK-5 cannon (50 mm caliber) for tank hunting, similar to the Ju 88 P-4. These aircraft are said to have actually been used. However, Green considers the designation Ju 288 E to be fictitious.

The author Karl Kössler quotes a Junkers document on the Ju 288 from March 1944: "All V machines with the exception of the V9 used by Jumo are to be scrapped. The C-1 series aircraft W.Nr. 153 to 156 will be taken into Reich ownership in their present condition".

At the end of the war, two Ju 288 Cs were captured in Dessau, including 310156, neither of which was fitted with a large-caliber gun at the nose. Accordingly, a maximum of two aircraft could have been converted into Ju 288 tank destroyers. The photo shows the Ju 288 V103 DE+ZZ, the first C-aircraft, for comparison.

Before Deluca -- after nothing at all happened

I had his pants refit and myself seated beside him before the tray clicked onto the table. Though we didn’t fool the woman who set it there.

“Your coffee, sirs,” she said with a sly little grin playing on plump, pink painted lips before she winked and added, “enjoy.”

My giggle caught an icy grip on my thigh and, when the woman left us, I set my lips close and soft against a warmer ear, “I love you, Lucient.”

“Terrible thing, you,” he scolded, breath short.

And I licked the ear, smiling for his gasp, “Mm?”

Turning, he sighed and snuggled into my offered lap, “I love you too, Ludovico, now hold me before I tear that pleased smile off your face.”

We enjoyed our coffee in relative peace, earning but a few glances for how tangled we sat, how low and close we spoke—and our occasional kiss or too intimate touch—before an oddity caught our eyes.

Mirrors. Not behind the bar but above the seats, on the ceiling. And in their reflection of all patrons, and our lack, it became apparent we were other. Silver backed, a simple method of detection and, while we'd encountered more who knew of vampires over our travels, only one of us worried it the reason for them.

Primitive as it is, there are Hunters everywhere now, Lucient warned, pressing ever tighter against me, eyes alert for more glances, we should have checked...

But I wasn’t worried, the woman behind the bar had been kind, and not a single mind I touched held concern for us in any capacity other than how close we were.

A concern I sought to inflame by shifting in my seat enough to lift Lucient’s face and soothe him with lips and words, none worry of our nature, my love, only our touch...but the proprietor worries of neither. We’re safe.

Pulling from my kiss, he returned the soft fingers on cheek and sighed, “you and your optimism, my treasure...”

“You love it,” I teased, teasing more with kisses of his fingers.

He took them back, giggling and nuzzling into my chest, “così tanto che potrei urlare.”

A gift of my native tongue, proclaiming he loved my optimism so much he could scream? How could I not tease more, “Mon amour à-t-il envie de crier?”

Closer he pressed, turning more on the seat to hold me, but his answer cut with a gasp. A gasp from those no longer watching us, one that rippled through the diner and drew our eyes back to the mirrors.

We were not alone in our lack of reflection.

Sitting in the corner opposite ours—curtains as tightly drawn and hidden under a thick, dark cloak—a fellow eternal lurked as a shadow too deep. And they did not enjoy being known, sighing in a manner reserved for towering mausoleum doors, they’d drawn the attentions of every bite of prey around us.

Mists replaced them, puffing and snaking through the diner, growing those gasps to scattered screams as people fled. Tickling our ankles with a soothing chill it slipped through a grate at the base of the wall we sat beside.

“I believe we're being summoned,” Lucient said flatly, colder hands firm on my chest as he narrowed his eyes at the wall.

Scoffing as I winked and slid under the table.

“We can't fit in there,” I told the swirling gray eyes in the grate, “no misty tricks.”

“Cemetery, biggest in the city,” it instructed, voice small and rasped, “find me when the sun is hiding, follow the cats.” Vanishing after, the odd vampire left a scent of fresh dirt and roses behind.

“How dramatic,” Lucient mocked, “we’re not following, are we?”

“They don’t appear aggressive,” I said, crawling up to the bench, opposite him to slide out of the booth and offer my hand, “Worth a night, isn't it, my love?”

“Treasure, much as I love it, your optimism will be our doom,” he warned, but he took my hand, and snatched his jacket before following me out of the diner.

We held more eyes on our exit—what few remained—but I imagine the proprietor didn’t mind so much with the amount of money she’d find on our table.

"Pet", fiction in 4 parts - Part 2

Part 1 can be found here

When Kira came out of the shower-room, dressed in a deeply green sheath that set the gold and copper in her eyes aflame, Taun had to swallow his heart back down into his chest in order to continue setting up the dinner he'd prepared for her. His heart leaped again when he heard her small gasp of astonishment, and he held out a cup of mid-grade liquor he'd prepared for when she appeared. Her eyes, wide and beautifully expressive, took in the sight of various roots, talks, leaves and seeds arranged on plain steel plates and garnished with the few flowers he could spare, and rose to his with amazement as she took the drink. “Did you...?”

“Ah, yeah...” He had to control his eyes, trying not to focus too hard on the shape of her body under that clingy green fabric. “Is it too much?”

“It's...” Kira searched for the word. “It's incredible – you grew all this?”

Taun nodded. “Mm-hmm, I've gutted and refitted this ship and turned it into a mobile farm, basically. It keeps my food cost down and passes the time.” He didn't mention the secure rooms where he grew hallucinogenic herbs, fungus and algae just yet – he'd tell her about that particular income stream later.

“I haven't had fruit in probably six or seven years,” Kira breathed, staring greedily at a small cluster of bright yellow berries. “I don't even know what half of it is.” Her eyes sparkled, though, and she looked hungry enough to demolish it all. Taun wondered if she'd ever look at him in the same way. Don't get ahead of yourself. Instead, he invited her to sit on the mat he'd laid out on the floor – his only table was currently holding up a pallet of seedlings in the greenhouse. He watched her kneel, green fabric rippling around her legs as she reached for a cushion to sit on. Settling in, Kira took a drink and raised her eyes to the ceiling in bliss. “Oh my god... Don't tell me you do this all the time?”

Taun shook his head, grinning and lowering himself to sit. “I wish. I'll be honest, if you decide to stay we'll be eating leftovers for a while, then it'll be mostly protein bars and greens.” Taun found himself hoping she would stay.

“Sounds like paradise.” Kira took another sip and set her cup down. “It's still better than the colony, did you hear the part where I said I haven't had fruit in years?”

“I did. I don't always have fruit, either – the plants need to rest between crops, but I keep plenty of preserved stuff on hand. You won't go hungry unless something really bad happens, and even then it'll be a while before I run out.”

“Good to know. Can I...?” Kira gestured towards the food.

“Help yourself, I did this for you.”

She smiled. “Trying to win me over?”

Taun shrugged. “It gets lonely and cold out there, and my setup gets bigger every year, I could use the extra hands.”

“So it's not just about sex, then?” Kira picked an arrangement of fresh fruit and prepared vegetables, selecting pieces carefully. Taun paid attention to the pieces she picked and how quickly – they would be things she was familiar with or appealed the most to her. “When I read the notice, I kind of got the impression that being a pet is more like an arranged marriage than anything else.”

“It can mean a lot of things, depending on who's making the rules. That's what this is for, a chance to talk it over and see if we're looking for the same thing or if we can compromise. What led you to respond, if I may ask? It's... not common for humans to be interested in these things.”

“Can I be honest?” She popped a piece of fruit in her mouth, her tongue pink.

“I'd prefer it.”

Kira took a moment to chew before she answered. “I'm over thirty, I'm not married, and I don't want kids. These colonies tend to be on the conservative side, so if you're at least two of those things people start asking a lot of questions and getting into your business. There aren't many single women out here, so the guys can get annoying real fast – and pushy.”

Taun had to willfully settle his hackles. Already the thought of other men harassing this beautiful, obviously intelligent and amazingly bold woman had him feeling... fighty. Still, she was choosing a relationship that largely centered around sex over settling down, raising a family, being among her own people... “From what I understand, Rock 22 isn't a popular colony.”

“Nope, it's a mining colony, so the work is hard and supplies are expensive. And it's just a rock, there's nothing nice to look at or anywhere to go where you can forget what it's like being underground.” Kira raised her eyes again, this time to the profusion of greenery around and above. Some of the vines had become enmeshed with the wiring, and trails of leaves wound around the support frames Taun had left intact when he cut out bulkheads. Suddenly her eyes widened. “Is that a flower?”

Taun looked where she stared. In one of the supporting beams, in a hole he'd stuffed with moss and growing medium, a tiny white and yellow blossom had begun to unfold like a hand revealing a tiny, precious jewel. He smiled. “Drassian teaflower, one of my favorites. It just started doing that today.”

“All by itself?” Kira shot him a teasing glance, “I figured with you trying to make a good impression and all that...”

“Hey now, if you know how to make flowers bloom on command I may not let you leave.” Taun caught the flash of a grin. “It's just luck, and patience. And a lot more trial-and-error than I care to admit.”

“Isn't that everything?” Kira pulled her attention back from the plants and redirected it between him and the food. Despite not having fruit for years she ate with controlled but obviously sincere pleasure. Taun hoped she approached more than food in the same manner. He was more than content to just watch her, let her enjoy the meal uninterrupted while he enjoyed the view. The dress, probably home-made from whatever material she could scavenge or barter for, hugged her body from chest to hips before widening slightly, and the body under it was no disappointment – already he was imagining what she would feel like against his hands, his pelt, his mouth... Obviously Kira understood what a Leagan expected from his pet, and she must have chosen this outfit to show off what she had to offer in that respect. Sitting on the floor with her legs curled to the side, her hips and thighs strained the green cloth and Taun thought he could see the outline of a little roll in the crease between them. He bit his cheek in anticipation. “So, what about you? How does a guy with a mobile farm not already have a woman and a handful of kids?”

Taun scratched his head, fluffing his crest. “Like a lot of Leagans, I served time in the defense corps. Engineering, mostly. By the time I got out, most of the women were already settled and I guess I missed the window.” The immediate downcast of her eyes told him Kira knew about the fight against the Arakan, and the horrific attack on the Leagan genesis planet. “I guess you know about h'Leaga, then.”

Kira nodded soberly “News travels faster than supplies. I'm... I'm sorry, Taun.”

“Not your fault. We'll spring back in a generation or two, and I donate what I can.” Taun grinned at that. For all he knew there might be a hundred or so Leagan kids with his coloring, born from his 'donations' to gene banks over the years. He shook off the grief and had a drink. “Besides, raising children never really appealed to me either. I like doing what I do, trading and transporting and living my life. It's honest work... mostly.”

“Mostly?” That got her attention. “What does that mean?” Though she asked, a sly smile teased the corner of her mouth. Taun liked that.

“Well, I guess I should ask how you feel about... moving the occasional contraband cargo. Most of what I do is legit, but I don't see why I should pass up the opportunity to make a little extra untraceable funds now and then.”

Kira's eyes sparkled and she chuckled. “I should've guessed – you come all the way out here not because you want to provide us poor mining folk with fresh food, but because the authorities don't come out this far unless it's a big deal. You lure people in with oranges and berries, then you sell them... Let me guess, naash? Redthorn? Ayahuasca?”

“And cannabis, mushrooms, pills, all the good stuff. Not to mention poisons and rare plants for edgy collectors. Is that going to be a problem?”

“Hell no, fuck the police.” Kira grinned, giggling. “There's nothing else to do out here except work, let people have some fun.”

Taun breathed an internal sigh of relief. “Do you partake?”

“Not on the first date. Better safe than sorry, yeah?”

“No pressure. I can show you the grow-rooms if you're interested–“

“Plenty of time for that later. Right now, I'm curious about how long it's going to take before you finally crack.”

Taun blinked. “Hmm?”

Kira indicated the food. “You've barely touched anything, and the whole time I've been here you keep eating me with your eyes. Not that I mind, but it's pretty obvious you like me. And I like you, so we don't need to play games. I want off this rock, and playing pet for a guy who seems like he knows what he's doing is a hell of a lot better than rotting in a mineral mine with drunks and convicts pawing at me all the time.”

Taun blinked some more. She did seem eager to get away, but she was treading carefully. She made no unreasonable demands and seemed to accept what she was getting into. There was no legal tape, no binding contract – if things didn't pan out, he could always drop her off at another colony and start over – but for the most part she seemed willing. Her disdain for authority didn't hurt either. “What's the difference between getting pawed at by a convict and getting pawed at by me? I'm just curious.”

Kira rolled her eyes and sipped at her drink. “There's not a woman on the rock who hasn't been grabbed, rubbed on or slapped on the ass by some soggy prick who thinks he's being cute. Since I came here, though, you've been nothing but manners – I could've walked out of that shower buck-naked and you would've just stood there. I can tell already by how you act and talk that you won't do anything to me unless I say I'm good with it, and I like to think I'm a pretty good judge of character.”

Stunned, Taun could do little more than have another taste of his drink. It was true – she'd been giving him cues and openings all evening, from the moment she walked in, and he hadn't acted on any of them. She hadn't explicitly said he should, though her eyes feasted just as much as his. Hell, she'd touched him without asking, something Taun wouldn't have dared with any woman. Leagan women had claws too, and you could always tell a stupid male by the scars. “Well, you're right about a few things – I don't touch anything that doesn't belong to me, and I was raised by parents who didn't want me to lose an eye, so I'd agree with you on my character. And you don't seem to mind my odd jobs, which is good because I'm not giving those up – the money's just too good. As far as cracking goes...” He ran his eyes over her again, taking his time and making sure she saw. “Let's just say I'm made of sterner stuff.”

A slow smile spread from Kira's lips to her eyes. “The 'stuff' is what I'm interested in. I've met Leagans before, but I never had the chance to get really close to one... Do you know what a cat is?”

“Those little fluffy creatures that eat vermin? Yes, they're all the rage on some of the Leagan colonies at the moment.”

“Hmm.” She studied him for a moment, visibly working through a thought. It looked serious. “Would it be racist of me if I said you remind me of them?”

Taun laughed. Gods, I like her! She was so forthright, so clever and humorous, she cut through the bullshit and said exactly what she wanted to say, in such a way that he just couldn't be offended. “Maybe a little? But I don't mind, they're fine animals. Unless you're suggesting I eat vermin?”

“No, not at all.” Her smile returned and Kira looked relieved. “But... I kinda would like to pet you, if that's okay.”

The thrill that coursed through Taun's body was rapturous. He closed his eyes so she wouldn't see them roll back in his head, anticipatory pleasure briefly overwhelming his senses. To feel her smooth, brown fingers combing through his pelt, ruffling the coarse hairs on the back of his neck leading up to his crest, stroking his ears, chest and belly before moving lower... Taun gathered his courage and opened his eyes. “Only if I get to pet you, too.”

Part 3

[nebris]

HMS Dreadnought was a Royal Navy battleship whose design revolutionised naval power. The ship's entry into service in 1906 represented such an advance in naval technology that her name came to be associated with an entire generation of battleships, the "dreadnoughts", as well as the class of ships named after her. Likewise, the generation of ships she made obsolete became known as "pre-dreadnoughts". Admiral Sir John "Jacky" Fisher, First Sea Lord of the Board of Admiralty, is credited as the father of Dreadnought. Shortly after he assumed office in 1904, he ordered design studies for a battleship armed solely with 12 in (305 mm) guns and a speed of 21 knots (39 km/h; 24 mph). He convened a "Committee on Designs" to evaluate the alternative designs and to assist in the detailed design work.

Dreadnought was the first battleship of her era to have a uniform main battery, rather than having a few large guns complemented by a heavy secondary armament of smaller guns. She was also the first capital ship to be powered by steam turbines, making her the fastest battleship in the world at the time of her completion.[1] Her launch helped spark a naval arms race as navies around the world, particularly the Imperial German Navy, rushed to match it in the build-up to the First World War.[2]

Ironically for a vessel designed to engage enemy battleships, her only significant action was the ramming and sinking of German submarine SM U-29; thus she became the only battleship confirmed to have sunk a submarine.[3] Dreadnought did not participate in the Battle of Jutland in 1916 as she was being refitted. Nor did Dreadnought participate in any of the other First World War naval battles. In May 1916 she was relegated to coastal defence duties in the English Channel, before rejoining the Grand Fleet in 1918. The ship was reduced to reserve in 1919 and sold for scrap two years later.

<모네>는 도시의 차가운 바닥에 버려진 마네킹의 모습에 충격과 영감을 받은 두 사람(사진가 '김영준'과 음악가 '지나오킹')이 폐기 직전 구출한 마네킹의 이름이다. 그리고 함께 생활하며 각자의 영역에서 생명을 불어넣는 과정을 기록한 흑백 다큐멘터리 작업이다.

촬영은 2년의 시간이 걸렸고 전체적인 장면은 흑백필름으로 작업했으며 지나오킹의 퍼포먼스 작업에는 디지털카메라를 이용했다.

그리고 모네는 아직까지 우리와 함께 살고 있다.

인간의 모습을 본뜬 마네킹의 굳어버린 표정과 몸짓. 태워지기를 기다리는 이 물질의 신음과 비명이 눈앞에 드러났다 '버린다'라는 행위에 대해 생각해 본다. 아무렇게 버려지는 행위에서 순수한 이기심과 교육에서 드러나는 공동체의 차별과 무관심에 인류 목표에서 떨어진 소외된 또 다른 인간의 형태를 마주한다.

생명이 없는 마네킹에 빛이 나타나는 순간 우리는 깨닫게 된다. 아름다움이란 무엇인가 살아간다는 것은 무엇인가 생명이란 무엇인가에 대해. 이 과정을 통해 나의 양심이 드러나고 지나오킹의 마음이 드러난다. 인간이 가지고 있던 따스했던 감정들을 끄집어 낸다. 수없이 버려지는 물질들 감정들 슬픔들. 순환되지 않고 쌓여가는 가식의 동정들. 버려도 버려지지 않는 태워도 태워지지 않는 것에 대해 이야기해본다.

표지의 점자는 번역하면 영어 알파벳 <M O N E T>입니다. 바라볼 수 있는 것과 없는 것의 모호한 경계점에서 낯선 언어인 '점자'를 손으로 직접 만지며 느끼는 감각의 호기심을 시작으로 책이 누군가로부터 펼쳐지길 바라며 표지 디자인을 만들었습니다.

*제본 및 재단은 직접 수작업으로 만들었습니다. 실 보풀이 조금 묻어나거나 종이가 찍힌 부분이 있을 수도 있습니다.  

<본문 내용>

"밤의 시간은 늘 그렇듯 희미해지고 / 필름에 스며드는 잔향을 끊어낸다 / 모네의 감긴 눈이 살짝 움직인다"

Gives a name to a mannequin rescued by two people (photographer 'Youngjun Kim' and musician 'Jina0king')who were shocked and inspired by the image of a mannequin abandoned on the cold floor of the city.and it's a black-and-white documentary photo book that records the process of living together and bringing life to each other's territory. The shooting took two years, and the entire scene was worked on black and white films, and Jina0king's performance work used a digital camera. And Monet still lives with us. The mannequin's hardened expression and gesture modeled after the human figure.The moans and screams of this substance waiting to be burned were revealed in front of me. and I think about the act of 'throwing away'.In the act of being abandoned, we face another form of marginalized human beings who fell from human goals due to pure selfishness and community discrimination and indifference revealed in education. As soon as the light appears on the lifeless mannequin, we realize it. What is beauty, what is living, what is life.Through this process, my conscience is revealed and Jina0king's mind is revealed.It brings out the warm feelings that humans had. Matter thrown away countless times Emotions Sadness.Sympathy for pretensions that pile up without circulation.Let's talk about throwing away, not throwing away, burning and not burning.

The braille on the cover meaning is the English alphabet <M O N E T> At the ambiguous boundary between what can be seen and what can't be seen, the unfamiliar language 'braille' starting with the curiosity of the senses felt by touching it with hands, I made a cover design hoping that the book would be opened from someone.

*Binding and Cutting are hand-made. There may be some lint stains or paper marks.

"Time at night fades as usual / cuts off the lingering scent that permeates the film / Monet's closed eyes move slightly"

Ukrainian troops fireplace on Russians with captured weapons close to key metropolis By Reuters

3/3 © Reuters. Ukrainian troopers fireplace a spherical on the frontline from a T80 tank that was captured from Russians throughout a battle in Trostyanets in March, as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine continues, within the jap Donbas area of Bakhmut, Ukraine, November 4, 2022. REUTER 2/3 By Joseph Campbell BAKHMUT, Ukraine (Reuters) – Ukrainian forces utilizing captured weapons fired at Russian targets close to the important thing jap metropolis of Bakhmut on Friday as combating dragged on in an space that Moscow is making an attempt onerous to seize. Russian forces have repeatedly launched assaults towards Bakhmut and close by Avdiivka within the Donetsk area however are being pushed again with what Kyiv says are heavy losses. “Final week there was very intense combating … there are a number of them (Russians), each folks and gear,” mentioned a soldier who gave his title solely as Moriak, the Ukrainian phrase for sailor. Reuters journalists noticed a captured Russian T-80 tank and a 2S23 Nona SVK self-propelled mortar, now managed by Ukrainian crews, firing at targets outdoors Bakhmut. Ukraine’s army says each have been seized in March and took months to be refitted. The eight-wheel Nona – commanded by Moriak – has a 120 mm mortar able to firing a most of 10 rounds per minute. “They left us this reward, and it has excessive, very excessive (precision), and it now works towards them, it helps us push them away,” he mentioned. Bakhmut has been an vital goal for Russia’s armed forces in a gradual advance via the Donetsk area since Russia took the economic cities of Lysychansk and Sievierodonetsk in June and July. Britain’s defence ministry says the Wagner Group non-public army firm “doubtless stays” closely concerned within the Bakhmut combating.

Holding ALT/option during bootup I selected "EFI Boot" from the USB clover and booted into Cloverįor the exact Clover configuration send me a messageĪfter booting into windows the sound card was immediately working (this was because I had installed the cirrus logic drivers from bootcamp 4) - the display audio driver in device manager had an exclamation point but I was able to install the display audio driver from intel's driver support for the i7 2470m CPU in this machine. I used Maciasl to extract and edit my DSDT to add a 'Qword' section - I placed the DSDT in two locations /EFI/Clover/ACPI/Patched & /EFI/Clover/ACPI/Windows If you follow the guide and make a modified DSDT (one that add 'qwords' to the dwords section) you can test it in two ways.

So Windows 'honors' the root bridge and OSX and linux disregard it -hmmm interesting.Īs someone who also deals in hackintoshes I am very aware of DSDT's and how editing them can help get OSX running on home brew PC hardware- I had played around with installing Clover (the UEFI bootloader almost synonymous with Hackintoshes) on USB thumb drives and putting the DSDT from my MBP 2011 in the /Clover/ACPI/Windows folder - still nothing- I thought that pointing windows to a DSDT would be enough.Ī side note is that there are people who have 'bricked' their real Macs when using clover, I have never had that issue personally (a sub-link in the link above describes such a situation)* Neither of those OS require a DSDT override and can allocate freely in the huge 64-bit PCIe address space" macOS ignores the root bridge constraints as too does Linux when booted with the 'pci=noCRS' parameter. Windows OS honors the root bridge definition and will allocate PCIe devices within it. A watermark TOLUD value is then set and locked in the system firmware. "A Windows system's DSDT table root bridge definition (ACPI PNP0A08 or PNP0A03) is usually confined to a reserved 32-bit space (under 4GB) budgeted to be large enough to host the notebook's PCIe devices. I had tried to pass SETPCI commands from grub into Windows 10- no luck*Ī quote from the link above got my brain spinning I had messed around with mm commands in a UEFI shell (The shell provided in the rEFIt package) to no avail* The part that was frustrating to me was that many users like myself have lots of UEFI installs on their 2011 MBP and those OS's have no problem 'seeing' the HD audio controller. I was given the answer from a tutorial only adjacently related -here:Įssentially what we knew was that windows didn't 'see' the correct audio devices when booted in pure efi.

If anyone is still interested I have found the solution for audio on MBP 2011 Windows 10 UEFI installs - it has taken me 4 years to figure out.

"Before August 25th, 1945, the battle worn Free French battleship Jean Bart receiving final repairs in Casablanca, Morocco before steaming home to France.

The four 380 mm(15 inch)/45 Modèle guns of turret 1 are already removed as replacements for Richelieu's American refit & ammunition testing at Naval Surface Weapons Center Dahlgren.

When finally home, Jean Bart would have to wait on her fate; to never be finished, completed as an aircraft carrier, or finished as a battleship."
