[02:04:58] id like to ask for feedback about how my maps for my wiki's countries look [02:05:07] do these look good / organized? [02:05:29] [1/3] this is the map vs. the map with the cities [02:05:29] [2/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1197723474815356948/250px-Body_of_Iklihi.png?ex=65bc4de9&is=65a9d8e9&hm=7e19da0f4818a8a6415bb00ba37e486fc39668642b1cf35984042ba6d4c29eb7& [02:05:30] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1197723475054428302/250px-Map_of_cities_in_Iklihi.png?ex=65bc4de9&is=65a9d8e9&hm=e918f8d310a23df721f4a6a49398505a9d768c4d5ca78ec01eac9c951e61ec2a& [02:05:49] [1/3] here's another example [02:05:49] [2/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1197723558730813570/250px-Wahari_Body.png?ex=65bc4dfd&is=65a9d8fd&hm=6c6b1e7f6460d9d57685469ffb64be15ca1c0a787ab8a3cdc4c71e6557c14558& [02:05:50] [3/3] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1197723559032795316/250px-Map_of_cities_in_Wahari.png?ex=65bc4dfd&is=65a9d8fd&hm=c7895a56b9be3c5c21bd1032c97ffd075b072ca608efb170ae8e3f013385186e& [02:09:29] Oh neat! Are you using inkarnate or another mapping tool to generate? [02:10:36] looks like ink for the left [02:10:40] i think? [02:10:50] i used inkarnate for the original map but for the ones on the right i edited it into a silhouette with canva [02:12:20] Nice, One bit of feedback on the inkarnate maps (which might just be a downscaling problem) is that the town locations blend into their surroundings a bit more than is helpful for legibility. [02:13:00] Adjusting contrast, adding outline/shadow or tone might be helpful to make them 'pop' more [02:13:36] But that said, looks like a very neat project! [02:13:55] i think it might be a discord thing cause its way more low quality on discord 😭 [02:14:10] Lemme grab one from a ttrpg I ran... [02:14:23] D&D? [02:14:29] inkarnate maps are so satisfying to look at likee theyre so fun to make [02:17:34] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1197726514721083412/Screenshot_20240118-181648.png?ex=65bc50bd&is=65a9dbbd&hm=4fe6916896fb2accd470368178e86e8f1b0e0ce2ab2b88e9f41769aa376641f4& [02:17:45] So I'm no map genius by any stretch, but my big takeaways are visible here. [02:18:40] i love vintage maps like 😭 you just gave me an idea to make vintage maps for my wiki [02:18:42] Yep, ran a few different flavors of TTRPG, but this one was from a very homebrew scifi/post apocalypse setting using 5e [02:20:21] Wishing you success! Clustering of objects, playing with scale and opacity, and using a sepia filter are all great cheat codes when you're in a hurry [02:21:05] now that you said all that it sounds difficult 😭 [02:21:22] i haven't made a map on inkarnate since last april iirc so it'll be like starting over all again [02:21:57] A town map I spent too much time on [02:22:05] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1197727651109027850/image0.jpg?ex=65bc51cc&is=65a9dccc&hm=48938a8a78811f7bdf6f4e3a8a905ef8446e62872b2fe5d289e517dd5d2359af& [02:24:38] [1/2] So what I mean by each: [02:24:39] [2/2] * clustering: putting similar objects close together (like sand dunes in the first map) fills space while looking intentional. You'll also notice I varied size and opacity to give the impression of variety. [02:30:31] i'll have to try those because i have thought that my desert regions look kinda like [02:30:35] bland 😭 [02:31:04] it's harder for me to do deserts & stuff cause unlike my forest or plains ones i can't just fill it up with trees 🥲 [02:32:16] Yeah, that was 100% experimentation to find something that looked good. Deserts and wastelands are hard! [09:15:24] @paladox NHS dentistry is non existent [09:15:50] whoa [09:15:50] that's a sick looking map [09:16:58] Yeh. I hope Labour revive it [09:17:20] Because private dentistry is just unaffordable for a lot of people [09:22:44] If you can get it on a plan, it can be like £15 a month [09:22:59] But you shouldn't have to pay anyway [09:23:08] And everything keeps going up [09:23:37] @paladox [09:25:39] That’s just a checkup [09:27:39] @paladox denplan can include some work [09:36:28] I don't know enough about the NHS but I feel it could benefit from being more like European systems like in France, Belgium, Germany, etc. [09:36:36] Things aren't amazing here but from what I hear in the UK it's worse [09:40:05] The nhs was once ranked number one [09:40:20] I wouldn’t want European healthcare. I like the free at point of service [10:37:28] Nibbly: a rare name on IRC [11:37:19] The NHS would outperform those I personally think if the tories just paid them what they're asking for. [11:52:03] @originalauthority "I have considered the information available in relation to this complaint and I am of the view that TSB have not fully complied with their data protection obligations. This is because it does not appear that they appropriately updated / corrected your information." [11:53:17] TSB did not comply with Article 5(1)(d) of REGULATION (EU) 2016/679 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL [14:51:35] https://fxtwitter.com/tamcohen/status/1748336239059542376 [14:51:37] @rhinosf1 [14:51:42] sunak laughs at women [14:51:59] disgusting little man [14:52:12] tories have destroyed the NHS and it'll be up to labour to rebuild it. [14:52:20] "back to square one" is exactly what we want [14:52:33] Why the heck are you talking about politics in this server lol [14:52:40] it's offtopic [14:53:42] His time isn't far from up [14:54:03] yeh his ratings are almost truss level [14:54:31] labour just can't be complacent. Need to fight fight. [19:04:50] Good afternoon. [19:05:03] eyo [19:05:10] I think we should avoid touching politic topics in this place. [19:05:20] Hi, @pixldev [19:05:25] This is offtopic so anything goes [19:05:45] obvi id agree with controversal or heated stuff [19:05:52] but imo just discussion is fine [19:06:34] I know, but we could upset or make someone uncomfortable. [19:06:51] a tori? lol [19:07:03] if that happens I agree the convo should stop [19:07:33] You could also silence this channel or smth if you don't like the current topic [19:07:35] We have mods and admins to assist if someone is uncomfortable, please don't hesitate to reach out to us privately. [19:08:01] I'm also into controversial stuff, but I don't want to disturb anyone. [19:08:02] Nothing politics-wise discussed so far has gone beyond the pale, so I don't see a need to outright ban discussion of political topics thus far. [19:08:57] Just use good sense, and don't monopolize the channel. [19:21:39] Cool. [19:40:23] [1/2] wtf lol [19:40:24] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1197988949768028250/IMG_20240119_223704.jpg?ex=65bd4527&is=65aad027&hm=99762c39914f03198b1af269b84976c9df75f54ea2c7b0de8599146f28fbeb5e& [19:41:06] so just your everyday spambots [19:43:03] Reminds me of the Wikipedia page creation services I came across [19:43:24] I later found out theres 99 connect ones and they've been site banned LMAO [19:44:42] I wonder if that's actually profitable [19:45:07] Any site with active admins will just ban your bots/abusefilter/checkuser them off the wiki [19:45:10] prob a scam [19:45:20] yeah, that makes more sense [19:57:24] I rediscovered that you can do L160 in a loop instead of chaining ORs [19:57:41] I'll fix it tomorrow and get the PR ready for review [19:58:25] Reception123: Please re-review https://github.com/miraheze/RequestSSL/pull/6 as soon as you can, it touches a lot of files and I want to try to avoid merge conflicts [20:06:50] Does this means more power for Fandom™? [20:21:55] Orange_Star: done [20:38:10] <.labster, replying to johnmcgurkus> Speaking of topics that could upset people, this [20:44:21] it is forbidden to talk about Fandom's dictatorship? [20:46:07] good meeting [20:57:31] <.labster, replying to johnmcgurkus> It’s not a dictatorship, they got 99.96% of the vote last election. [20:58:29] 😶 [21:03:07] So, all this time, we were on fandom's power? [21:25:19] nah [21:29:29] wiki.gg's WordPress install got hacked twice in two days [21:29:31] RIP [21:29:46] h o w [21:29:52] same exploit? [21:30:04] Explain more about this plz [21:30:12] yes [21:33:21] not sure, seems some exploit was used that was present in their older version of WP [21:33:30] but it kept redirecting people to malicious websites [21:44:34] oh no [21:45:01] the "THERE ARE HOT MILFS IN YOUR AREA!!!" kind of haha funni virus go brrrr kind [21:45:40] Any news we can read about? [22:13:53] Its a bit embarrasing for them and all their official wikis. [23:18:28] I am having a really bad day [23:18:51] Turns out the cold weather has frozen the water pipe on my street and now its split and there's no water 😭 [23:19:38] Auch. I hope you still have electricity then [23:23:30] Yeah just no water 😦 [23:24:13] And mid weekend... isn't that great either. They'll not be in such a hurry
