ohhh nooooo, who could possibly have seen this coming

not like that repo was getting constantly vandalized as people realized it contained copyrighted code that the winamp owners didn’t have the rights to which the project managers were halfheartedly playing whack-a-mole with

So that’s what she does on weekends

It’s like this, basically.

That, though, raises another question, because if the conspiracy theories are so easy to debunk that no rational person believes them, why worry about their existence? Unless the population is majority conspiracy theorists.

As for the church being ashamed to have a goblin in their ranks. She summoned an angel, presumably without outside help. Have the church very publicly say she’s one of their best spellcasters, not to mention a pillar of community, and they’re proud to have her in their ranks, doubly so after this generous contribution of much-needed funds. If it comes out that she was cheating, or the church helped her, well, that’s now a problem for the whole church. They wouldn’t put themselves in that spot.

If you didn’t want it to look like the church was easily bought, have the “pillar of community” press release precede the donation.

…isn’t…all of that a reason why she’s not a disposable scapegoat? Isn’t the fact that she’s a public figure the best possible refutation of any of the criticisms just listed?

Cool, what’s it do that Aseprite doesn’t?

EDIT: Okay, using an entire image as a texture which an image references, allowing you to do pseudo-3D texturing on a 2D pixel sprite is pretty sick, I gotta admit

I’m playing a campaign where all of the PCs are multiclass bards and this exact concept exists as a homebrewed magic system called “fantasia-kinematics”. The most powerful magic users in the setting are practitioners of it.

I was like 90% sure our GM came up with it himself. Great minds think alike I suppose.

I would suggest ddns.net if they hadn’t irrevocably eaten two of my domains already (when the client software doesn’t check in, the domain disappears from your account, but they don’t get marked as available so no other account can filch them)

Oh, was it them that made the IoT washing machines with a nasty habit of unannounced port scans?

Probably the privacy invasive TVs

They did? That’s news to me. Who did they sell it to? And what do you use instead?

Why?

No seriously. What context am I missing? You’ve done nothing this entire thread except scream plagiarism and call everyone who isn’t you a moron.

In the chain I linked to, you say it’s a blatant ripoff of another comic, Samus12345 says it’s a play on the same idea referencing elden ring, someone else says what the original was about (adding nothing), Samus12345 says it’s clearly meant to be a parody although since the original isn’t well known the parody should be presented in context, and you chime in again saying it’s been called out for plagiarism, so clearly it is well known.

In the chain we’re now in, you and Samus12345 go back and forth, with you saying it’s a blatant ripoff and Samus12345 (correctly) arguing it’s a parody (although it should show the original for context), and you ask how something can possibly be a parody if no one except you and two other people have ever seen the original.

We could have a whole other discussion about why the number of people who know about the original is a fucking stupid definition of plagiarism, and how now that everyone reading this thread has been made aware of the original’s existence and the ways that the “rip-off” innovates on it, the claims of plagiarism no longer really hold water (unless you want to argue that since it wasn’t OP who linked the original they were trying to steal credit, which… just… no), but I still don’t see how something can be well-known enough to be recognized as plagiarism but not well known enough to be recognized as parody.

My definition of plagiarism doesn’t depend on how many people know about a thing.

I can follow a conversation just fine. In one thread, someone says it’s more parody than plagiarism, although the original isn’t super well known so people might not recognize it as parody, to which you reply that it obviously is since three people have called it out for being plagiarism. In this thread, you ask how something can possibly be parody if the original isn’t well enough known.

Funny though that you gripe about a comic not being well known enough to be effectively parodied in reply to a comment saying the original has its own KnowYourMeme page, then accuse me of not being able to follow a conversation.

So it’s not well known enough to be parody as opposed to plagiarism in one context, but everyone has heard of it and is calling it out for plagiarism in another?

Makes perfect sense.
