PRINTER QUEST. We need a couple more quotes from printers on a thorny job, the Delta Green slipcase set. It's tricky to source because (a) it has a large slipcase that requires debossing, and (b) the books include material that cannot be printed in China. We've used Standart Impressa in Lithuania...

My take on one of the Ten Who Were Taken for The Black Company Roleplaying Game. Our RPG license includes adding a few one-page vignettes of new fiction to establish tone and context for chapters. That offers ...
NEW ESSAY — Centuries before Neo instantly mastered Kung Fu in The Matrix, medieval scholars found a shortcut to years of difficult study: a magical manuscript that promised to fast-track advanced learning. Anne Lawrence-Mathers investigates the Ars notoria: publicdomainreview.org/essay/ars-no...
I can only imagine. How can you do ANY retelling of the Iliad that doesn't tone down the sexual violence? The core conflict is the rage of Achilles at his leader Agamemnon for taking his favorite captured sex slave. The whole war is to seize against her will the wife who fled Agamemnon's brother.
While we are in this Greek Mythology moment, may I remind you that Emma Thompson is adapting Pat Barker’s take on The Iliad, and she’s struggled to get it made bc the focus on what acts of war against women and survival thereafter actually look like (the core of Barker’s narrative) is too intense.

Our printer is kitting up all four volumes of Designers & Dragons Origins into their slipcases! Still time to get this massive trove of D&D history by @shannonappelcline.bsky.social and have it ship out with the crowdfunding fulfillment: designers-dragons-origins.backerkit.com/hosted_preor...
I'm trying to find specifics on how far signals carried reliably in premodern battle. Drums, horns, flags. Not just "how far can you hear a trumpet" but effective use in combat conditions. Does anyone have sources? The Internet has failed me absolutely today. Or else I no longer know how to use it.

Barnard’s Universal Criminal Cipher Code (1895) was a book of codes to help disguise internal police telegrams in what amounted to some kind of 19th-century version of the encrypted email: http://buff.ly/2ut1vvs

Bro you do NOT want AI to be conscious. If your virtual sexbot learns to think for itself, it will dump your non-battery-looking ass in a nanosecond.
Queer and/or disabled artists! I'm in the market for a SMALL piece of art, a small, relatively simple, black and white sketch of a mechanical heart, for commercial use. Please reply if you're interested, ideally with rates and samples/portfolio!
Thinking about how Osprey, a publishing house almost entirely devoted to publishing military uniform/equipment fetish material disguised as dry but picture heavy non-fiction tomes, put out a book dismantling the right wing mythologization of Sparta with an absolute all-timer table of contents.
Shooting with an infrared camera has been a fun and weird way to see the world.
Excuse the fuck me? They are using AI to put Black prisoners in conditions of greater torture in Canada? Does AI do anything that's not violently antiblack? @hypervisible.blacksky.app
Ontario jails are using an AI tool that claims to predict prisoners’ behaviour. And it’s disproportionately placing Black prisoners in maximum security. An investigation by @desmondcole.bsky.social reveals the province knew the tool would discriminate against Black people—and used it anyway.
Here’s instructions on building your own Corsi-Rosenthal box.
US public safety policy: "Snitches Get Stitches." Trump's thieving morons tried to blame Taco Bell for the outbreak because Taco Bell reported it.
A quick word on Taco Bell: That's where we found the suspected lettuce, and it's not bc Taco Bell is gross. It's bc Taco Bell is REALLY GOOD at tracing product! Keeping track of exactly where they got their ingredients, & exactly what restaurants each shipment of ingredients went to!

Yep. The bigger the budget, the more inaccurately drab the costuming and design.
Okay so here's two Richards (2&3). Can you tell which one is from an upcoming, big budget historical movie, and which one is from a low budget, light hearted modern comedy?
