#wtf are they storing on my computer?

one thing about my new job is that they’re making me do anything and everything they can on the pretense that “it’s a small company and everyone does a bit of everything sometimes” as if my actual job isn’t already a lot most times

Psssst! Hey! Yes, you! We need to talk about clubs:

Using the Clubs for Immersive Gameplay

Of all the systems that Sims 4 has, the club feature is probably one of my favourites (Restaurants are a close second, but they're not why we're here today!) Clubs are one of the easiest ways to increase your immersion when you play and make the random townies that show up on community lots just a tiny bit less random.

The Basics

Often, people are mostly concerned with the groups their active sims are in. You might already have a club to keep track of your sims' closest friends, study group, or baby daddies, we don't judge here.

Clubs are also a great way to automate what you want your sim to be doing with less micromanaging, but for immersion, we're actually more interested in clubs for the sims you don't (or rarely) play.

WTF are the neighbours doing?

Most of the pre-made clubs are kinda meh. I prefer to add my own so I can make my community lots just a bit more lively and make sure people's activities make just a tiny bit of sense because the autonomy in this game is not great. These are just for inspiration based on clubs I often add to my own game:

A group of teens who meet at the retail clothing store to try on clothes and gossip about Nancy's nose job or whatever.

A local bowling league (complete with uniforms) who meet and bowl - just don't fuck with The Jesus.

An HOA of Karens who meet at the park to clean, raise property values, and be mean to people.

Geeks and gamers who meet at the local arcade to awkwardly flirt over pizza.

Comedians who meet at the local comedy club - you can even use the club doors to make a VIP backroom only for the performers.

Sports teams - such as a basket team who meets at a local basket court, or a swim team who meets at the local pool (you can even give them tiny matching speedos!)

Scouts! The scout feature is cute but it's a rabbit hole, boo! But you can make a Scouts club, complete with uniforms, and have them show up in parks where they can do various activities and work on their badges. Add a teen or two to supervise the younglings, their parents will be so proud, aww.

A sorority or fraternity in university who meet up at the local bar in matching varsity jackets to make all the other students feel inferior.

A group of old ladies who meet at the park to knit or cross-stitch and brag about the accomplishments of their descendants.

A "business" club, usually CEOs, lawyers and such, who meet in fancy bars to hold important business meetings and probably commit white-collar crimes, so predictable.

If you have a sim with an office/work from home job and you'd like to pretend they actually go to work, you can make an office building and a group of "coworkers" who'll show up to drink coffee, chat, and work on computers next to them in the office. It'll even simulate rotating desk assignments for an instant capitalist hellscape!

The possibilities are endless, and I find the club feature really useful to add little interesting scenarios to the background of my gameplay.

Thanks to SQOTD for inspiring this!

📩 Simblr question of the day: according to you, what are the most underutilized gameplay features in the sims games you played, dlc included? - @simblr-question-of-the-day

[lmao-ooooooo]

wwx is the type of guy who always has 100000000+ yuan worth of items in his cart in online shopping stores but never buys ANYTHING like ever! so one day he leaves his computer open and his lovely husband lwj sees all the items on his cart, he decides to buy everything on it because if wwx has it in his cart he must really want it! and wwx needs to spoil himself more. wwx gets soooo freaked out when he sees his shopping cart (that hes been adding stuff onto for years btw) sitting infront of his door, acting as an extra wall when he tries to leave their house for something. he starts panicking bc he thinks he accidently pressed check out. he starts trying to return everything bc theres NO way he can justify spending that much money, no matter how much his husband makes. later lwj stops him ofc, telling him he should have everything he wants and if he wanted everything that was on his cart then he should have them. wwxs argument was there was not enough space in their house for all of this random shit (there definitely was) and lwj said with the straightest face ever

"fine. we'll get a larger house then"

"WHAT NO LAN ZHAN"

wwx somehow made everything worse wtf!

"anything for my wife."

friend has agreed and invited me over tomorrow. realized i didn't have two adapters (since hard drive + moniter and i only have one) and tomorrow is EASTER so everything will be closed so i RACED to walgreens (4 minutes away) and managed to purchase an adapter that should work in the 5 minutes before they closed.

success. i will have my data if it kills me and fuck apple for everything taking forever. i will do it MYSELF.

acquired new computer. need to have my data transferred which apple is like 'we need three days' when it takes ONE HOUR on a fast cable to do but with my old laptop's screen busted i need a moniter to get my shit which i DO NOT have. i have thankfully realized one of my friends has a desktop, so i might go hang with her and set up my computer to back up.

IDK about tumblr or the first bit (I've personally never heard that at least not from anyone being serious) but the other stuff has been debated in academia for decades! One of my literature professors is ADAMANT that the vampire myth can be traced to old folklore about the reps and them reviving and possibly the blood-drinking comes from an evolution of the myth when before, old stories talked about blood soaking the earth where vampires rose. If anyone's interested, here's where you can find my professor's paper about it.

67.9 Notes

[schroedingerscryptid]

good evening mothers and fuckers of the jury today i bring: Amphoreus Is A Neural Network 

my credentials: i’m a first year CS student in 2025.

if y’all’ve been on hsrtwt in the past few days and watching leak after leak come out, then you probably know what i’m yapping about. if not, check this, this, this, and this out.

if you’d rather wait for 3.4 to come out, this is your chance to scroll. rest of y’all are with me lets go gamers

to summarise the 3.4 leaks, lygus and cyrene are apparently running tests on phainon to make the perfect lord ravager, and phainon’s been through 33550336 loops (girl help him wtf) by now. in each loop, he has to watch everyone die over and over again, and phainon, obvi, cannot remember anything. each loop, he’s a complete blank slate, ready to be traumatised over and over again. lygus keeps track of each loop, and keeps refining the data he puts in at the start of each timeloop to remove the ‘imperfections’ from the previous loop that were corrupting his experiments. 

ok anyways this is not about this shit we’re here to talk about why amphoreus is a neural network.

all of us here hate ai so i’m pretty sure you know the basic strokes of how it works, but if you don’t, then here’s a simple explanation: a neural network works based on input data. there’s many methods to training a machine, but the most generalised ones are the supervised vs the unsupervised models. how they work is what’s on the lid: supervised models mean that the input data is clearly labeled, and unsupervised models mean the input data is not labeled, which forces the ML algorithm to identify data on its own. based on what we know, i’m inclined to think that lygus is probably using a supervised model each time by removing outlier data and/or noise. 

wonderful, let’s talk about mydei now. y’all’ve probably seen a bunch of theories and leaks, but mydei’s highly likely to be a glitch in the system, or even worse, might be a virus that someone’s trying to use to break everyone out of this loop. between all of the theories i’ve seen, the one that connects mydei to the amphoreus loop is the theory that he’s a type of fileless malware. 

Tweet ref: https://x.com/tts_maruadelei/status/1932082549217751271

much like the other chrysos heirs, mydei doesn’t actually exist, but let me say: ain’t it interesting how mydei, the demigod of strife, who should have risen to be a titan that governed disputes, is the one who caused glitches in lygus’ system during the forgotten years?

let’s go back to the theory for a second: fileless attacks, simplified, operate based off of memory alone, which makes it much, much harder to detect compared to normal malware and viruses in a computer system. these fileless attacks can manifest in multiple ways, and one of those ways is a Distributed Denial of Service attack, aka, the infamous DDoS attack. DDoS attacks are among the most common cyberattacks of the modern century, and involve ‘botting’, where multiple bots attack one system to overwhelm the system with a high volume of requests.

the idea of ‘overwhelming’ a system can come in the form of exhausting resources like bandwidth, the Central Processing Unit (CPU) and, most importantly, the Random Access Memory (RAM). you know, the RAM being where most fileless malware operates out of. i’m sure you see where i’m going with this. 

for more psychic damage, there’s a type of attack called a ‘buffer overrun’ or ‘buffer overflow’. wikipedia defines data buffers as regions of memory that store data temporarily while it’s being moved from one place to another. a ‘buffer overflow’ is a type of DDoS (SIGHS) attack in which data in the buffer exceeds the storage capacity and flows into the following memory location, and corrupts the data in the secondary memory locations, and are the most common DDoS attack styles. sound familiar? 

bringing allllll of this back to amphoreus, i wouldn’t be too surprised if mydei’s older versions gained sentience, and started botting lygus’ AI/neural network and caused a DDoS attack, which caused his saves to be completely wiped due to a buffer overflow. thank u for listening can 3.4 hurry Up.

[exhaslo]

I HATE Retail.

So, quick summary.

This old lady comes in and my coworker spots her first. She tells the lady to give her just a second bc she was helping someone else. I enter the paint pit and saw the lady and asked if she needed help. The lady was talking to me in Spanish and I had to tell her, "One second, let me get someone to translate"

I maybe spanish, but I dont speak a lick of it. Only Japanese.

So, as Im calling someone to come over and translate, the women huffs and leaves. Like okay? The translator comes over, spots the woman two aisles away and we are trying to motion her over. We can only take orders at the one computer.

The lady refuses to move and demands we get her white paint. So the translator is asking her, "What brand? How shiny?" the normal questions. This lady still demands in a rude fucking tone just white paint.

Finally, my coworker comes over and tells the lady that we have to take the order on the computer. We cant read minds like wtf. So the lady storms over and demands white paint. AGAIN we keep asking for shine and whatnot. This takes 4 minutes bc she keeps telling us to just grab something.

We can't do that. The customer needs to be the only to pick. So finally she slams her finger on Eggshell. So I go to grab a gallon, then she bitches about a 5-gallon. So I go to grab the 5 gallon, shake it up and told her husband it was ready befpre helping my coworker out with her 6 5-gallon order.

Fast forward 10 min, one of my managers comes to me and asks if I yelled at a lady and gave her the wrong paint. I explained everything to him and NO WHERE IN THE CONVO DID THE LADY SAY CEILING PAINT.

LIKE THAT IS A DIFFERENT STORY AND PAINT.

So he drops it bc the lady was being dramatic about how she was gonna faint bc we yelled at her. Blah blah blah

Fast forward like an hour. Im helping a different customer and I see a different manager by paint. I ignore it until this lady storms in front of me and my customer and says,

"YOU NEED TO PICK ON SOMEBODY YOUR OWN SHAPE AND SIZE! HOW FUCKING DARE YOU INSULT AND SCREAM AT MY MOTHER! YOU ARE DISGUSTING-"

"Ma'am, I have no idea what you're talking about," I try to tell her.

"DON'T YOU GIVE ME THAT SHIT. YOU TREAT MY MOM LIKE SHIT YOU FUCKING BITCH. YOU ARE FUCKING RUDE AND DISGUSTING SO FUCK YOU!"

"Fuck you too." I snapped bc who the FUCK does this bitxh think she is?

Even my customer was shocked. I then saw the lady from earlier fucking crying. Like are you actually shitting me?

I GET YELLED AT! I GET TREATED LIKE SHIT BUT GOD FORBID I SAY SOMETHING!

IF I SAY SOMETHING THEN I'M IN THE WRONG.

I was seething. I called my supervisor and she stormed over along with another manager. Note, the daughter is HUNTING for my coworker and the translator bc she needs to fight someone.

Honey, you're mom is a fucking liar and she isnt a saint.

Once they left the managers all came to me to ask what happened and I just started crying. Like they will always take the customer's side no matter how wrong they are. I only said one thing to the fucking lady and that was I was getting a translator, but yet Im the one who gets cussed out?

I'm not mad about being yelled at. Im more mad that I cpuldnt say anything back. Bc all these companies only care about the customer.

They treat the customers like gods and we just have to shut up and take their shit like we're ants. Im sick of it. Im sick of all of it.

I'm sorry, unpopualr opinion, but customer service doesnt mean shit. You're either going to buy at the store you are going to or your not. We need to stop treating customers like they are angels bc it just fuels their entilted behavior.

I need a fucking drink now.

Thanks for letting me vent. Have a great day.

[fuck-customers]

Ok hi hello, how the FUCK are we supposed to reach the "goal" if we're literally not told what the fucking goal is? And wtf is this passive-aggressive bullshit?

So my work has one of those phone number scams where they make us bully customers into giving us their phone number to have in our computer system that does not benefit the customers in any way. No rewards. No discounts. Nothing.

SO I had assumed that the register system automatically kept track of how many signups we were getting and all that shit. Literally what's the point if it's not? I still don't know. All I know is last week, one of the managers said "we're going to start keeping track of signups again" and I was like you weren't doing that the whole time?? Why the fuck did I bother doing the stupid ass signups for all that time then?

ANYWAY

The point of today's story is this:

I go into the breakroom at work and there's a printout of all of us employees and our phone number percentages. (employee numbers only, at least we weren't 100% put on blast, but it wouldn't be that difficult to narrow down which number was whose) with the employees who were under a certain percentage highlighted with a passive-aggressive note written that these employees need to reach "the goal."

1. WHAT fucking goal? Nowhere on this stupid public shaming attempt does it have any indication what the goal is that were supposedly working towards. Are we trying to reach 50% signups? 60%? 70%? Fuck if I know.

2. Even if there WAS a numbered goal, there's no way for the cashiers to know if they're hitting the goal or not until the week's results have been printed out and posted, which it appears management intends on doing. It's not like the registers have a little percentage in the corner so we can keep track of our own progress. Literally only management has access. So we have to blindly hope that we're reaching this unspecified goal.

3. There was absolutely no reason whatsoever to post that information to shame us. None of us were informed that we were supposed to be working towards any goal at all.

And 4. Ok so let's say we reach this mystery goal....and? What? What is that going to do for us? Or we don't reach the goal? And? So what? Management has lied in the past about if our numbers go up, so will our hours and that was a fucking lie.

I cannot stress enough just how useless the phone number thing is. It is not a store credit card signup where customers have to get approved or anything like that. The customer gets absolutely nothing out of providing their personal information. If they want coupons or discounts or rewards, they have to download the store app onto their phone. We cannot access any rewards or discounts on the register. At first, managers tried to lie to customers to say that if they provided their phone number, they could do returns without a receipt.

Except...you can do a return without a receipt no matter what. It's the exact same process/policy for every single customer. Whether or not they provide their phone number, every single customer doing a return without a receipt will automatically get the lowest price for those items in the last 90 days back. Period. There's not even a way to pull up old transactions from a customer's phone number if they lost their receipt. It is 100% useless. I personally suspect there's something shady going on and the company is selling customer's personal information or tracking their spending habits for advertising or something sketchy.

So anyway, someone who definitely was not me wrote a note back telling them to tell us what the goal was or else we cannot reach it.

If you decide you want to fudge the numbers a bit here are some random numbers to use.

Simblr Bingo question!

When did you first start playing The sims? Any sims!?

OMG you're going to make me show my age lol I've been playing sims since SimCity lol though that wasn't until 99ish maybe 98 and then I somehow conned a grandparent to get me sims when it came out 2000 (I think?) Hang on let me look up . . . yes 2000 feb 4th 2000 to be exact lol though I don't think I got it until christmas that year and I think the sims franchise has gotten WAAAY too much of my money because when I was a kid I'd save any allowance money I got and begged for birthday christmas easter whatever for any expansion packs until I got my first job became an adult etc. I still have 99.9% of ALL the sims 3 DLC discs and sims store items - don't think I'll EVER get rid of 3 - though it's not downloaded on this computer (have to have room for my insane amount of CC lol) but I have everything saved on like 3 different flash drives - for security that I have it somewhere and EA app shows I still own them just not downloaded I didn't play 4 until there was a random download for free option in 2018 maybe 19 (before basegame became free anyway) and a ton of expansion packs were randomly on SUPER clearance at my work I think I spent $100 on all the expansions game and stuff packs that were out up til that point (I don't know why they were on clearance unless that was around the time Sims decided to do away with selling in physical stores because none of the boxes had discs just a piece of paper with a download code and it was a HUUUGE waste of plastic like WTF). 2019! Because then Covid happened a few months later and before that I was only playing a little and then with my daughter out of school I started playing A LOT and now I'm back to being just as addicted to 4 as I was 3. Really long answer that could have been a simple "A very long time" kind of answer lol sorry

BLOG POST NO. 13 - WTF DO I NAME THIS

A friend of mine mentioned that I should make a whole list of the Gotham Rogues and “critique” then (read: ramble random bullshit about them) like I did with the Waynes, and honestly I thought about it but unless I’m suddenly given some kind of weird immunity and a guarantee that I won’t die, I’m gonna have to pass on that. I’d rather not mention any of the villains and end up with one of them knocking on my door because they didn’t like the way I talked about their hair (or lack thereof).

I’m not betting on my safety just because I decided to be anonymous online— I know some of these mf have their own hackers. I may be a computer engineering student but I can’t combat a cyber criminal. Who am I, Cyborg?

Maybe at some point I can make a post on the technically former villains turned anti-heroes, kinda? I’m not really sure what classification the Gotham Sirens are under right now, but I know that they aren’t really that evil anymore? Also, would Red Hood count for this whole “former bad guy turned semi-good guy”? I guess he would, considering the fact that he apparently was a crime lord at some point (but that was before I moved in here so idfk).

So yeah, if I’m ever going to ramble (read: shittalk) any villains, I need to guarantee that they won’t murder me in my sleep first.

On another note, someone please tell me how I can— like— call the Red Hood or something. He promised me that he’d stop by and grab some flour from the store but it’s getting late and I need to know if he’s still bringing that or not. Does he have a weird light signal thing like Batman does or something? Or do all Gotham vigilantes just gravitate towards the Batman signal—

Am I gonna have to scale the police department building just to ask about the bag of flour promised to me?

Smh I should have asked for his number or something.

why is tumblr storing 2 gb on my computer wtf

[writing-hat]

hi hat! im the same anon you responded to earlier in the day and i wanted to say two things:

thank you for being concerned about my essay :) i got it finished on time lol

WTF CHAPTER 15 WAS SO GOOD AND I STARTED TO HYPERVENTILATE HALFWAY THROUGH AND CRIED LIKE TWICE 🤩🤩🤩

like i said before, your writing is so good! after reading ch 15 i was inspired enough to sit down and work on a wip thats been rotting on my computer for months. thanks for being such an inspiration even if it wasn’t something you planned :D

sincerely,

anon :)

(ps from now on im signing these with a smiley face so you know its me)

HIIII I'M SO SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG TO BE ANSWERED I kept deleting and rewriting stuff cuz I can't speak properly _(:3」∠)_

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I'm glad you finished your essay in time GKGRQJKGJREG studies are important (I am obliged to not tell you otherwise RSEKLGRESG) And I'm really glad you enjoyed chapter 15 aaaaaa it was a tough chapter argh sorry you cried ;;w;;) thank you for the nice words tho <3

I'm so glad I got you to work on your own WIP!!! Definitely not something I planned but hey not complaining for more beautiful creations to be sent into the world! Can't wait yo see what you're writing about (if you ever want to share it of course)

Thank you again smiley anon!

Hope you'll like what I have in store next! And see you around!!!

[teashadephoenix]

I am going to say what I'm about to say with zero judgment, bc having ADHD means I very much love my phone. THAT SAID.

Comedian Dee Bishop has a whole bit about how everybody before Gen Z had to wait. We didn't have smartphones to entertain us 24/7, we had to just sit with themselves. Waiting in line at the store. Waiting for a bus. Waiting. Sitting. Waiting. We learned to practice mindfulness out of sheer necessity bc wtf else were we gonna do? You watched the sky out the window and thought about stuff. Or nothing. Head empty.

You younguns came up with the pocket computer and you aren't forced to do this, so you don't know how unless you go out of your way to learn. But I guarantee you will not die if you don't have your phone plastered to your face making the shiny lights and happy noises. Just sit and be quiet. It will do you some good I promise.

i'm literally begging people to relearn how to use earbuds and headphones. i don't wanna hear your fucking tiktok while im waiting for my flight.

We're out of carrots at my grocery store, and people are mostly understanding.

But this bitch.

"How can you be out of carrots??"

Me: well the warehouse is out. As soon as they get them, they'll send some out.

Her: this is RIDICULOUS! A grocery store isn't supposed to RUN OUT of things! Who does the ordering? They really fucked up!

Me: (thinking wtf bitch) actually all ordering is done through the computer. But if the warehouse is out, they can't send them.

Her: oh blame the computers then. I bet you do the ordering and you messed up and don't want to take accountability!

Me: all grocery stores have computer ordering now. Ask anyone. Have the day you deserve.

And I walked away. I was so done with her shit. She complained to the (higher) manager about me but he said that he overheard and I wasn't even able to be perceived as rude. And that she can't talk to people that way.

Fuck her. Thanks to managers for standing up for us.

I have also had people flip me off, or straight up walk away after I tell them we're out. No "thanks anyway" or whatever. Just turn and leave.
