Clarification: Effectiveness of procedure for pacification purposes when performed on non-organic subjects can be... questionable at best.
Still crawling to the finish. A rather large machine that has experienced some trauma around the torso. It will probably be fine though.
The fact that I still had Metru Matoran limbs after this baffles and irritates me. I don't even know where I got all of them from at this point. Either way, was just a fun build from early last year that I used to try out some things I hadn't tried before; mostly using limb pieces to create paneling of sorts. Also just a fun idea for me, I don't think I've ever intentionally built an unfinished character before so it was neat.

As a natural consequence of the ever more complex gadgets and services, the need for some kind of software assistant arose. Going by many names and varying in functions and intelligence, Personal AIs are now a natural part of every mans day to day life. Personal AIs takes care of transactions, shopping, booking and household chores. Some people find it amusing to give their AIs personality and treat them as pets, others just use them as tools.
Personal AIs can transfer small parts of their core to machines in order to carry out various tasks. Shells are robotic machines that come in thousands of variants. Most Shells have their own governing AIs but they can also merge with Personal AIs and transfer their subroutines to them. Not many people can afford to choose other than the cheapest versions, but theoretically an AI can inhabit any Shell. Creative ways of using shells can of course be shared and downloaded by the AIs.
The Yogamabara Mechanization M-400 Multi-Purpose Shell is a commonly used type of shell. It’s very fast and agile. It gives the host AI the ability to follow it’s client around any ground based environment and has a full range of standard tools, like laser cutter, hydro spanners and standard data sockets to name a few. It’s animal-like form gives it personality and this has made Yogamabara one of the biggest manufacturers of Personal AI Shells.
Get yours today! Let your personal AI schedule a meeting and a free* testrun!
* Your AI will be analyzed and mined for suspicious behaviour, transactions and interactions.
Sprocket doesn't seem to have the same fascination with cardboard boxes as she did in her younger years, other than chewing on them (come to think of it, so does sister Shutter). One corrugated-cardboard-box-like item, however, still serves two purposes — as the brand name suggests — quite well for her.

Gotta give them credit, they know how to take advantage of opportunities for easier travel. The winter months can be quite harsh and cruel for Yellowstone's wildlife, but somehow they manage to survive. They definitely don't have to contend with all the traffic and tourists that other seasons bring. Don't normally shoot animals in the road but thought this one conveyed a real sense of purpose.
Have a great Wednesday.....thanks for all your visits and comments!!!!

The ministry of time
Chapter II: The Mystery of the Incubators
The style card and credits here
Sam found himself alone in the laboratory, the dim lights flickering intermittently over the equipment. A bottle of beer was within his reach as he immersed himself in his thoughts. Recently, an unusual event had shaken his scientific world: the disappearance of a body from the incubators. This act not only defied the laws but also raised serious questions about the integrity of the timeline.
As the golden liquid flowed down his throat, Sam pondered the possible devastating consequences that this incident could unleash. What effect would it have on historical evolution? How would it alter temporal continuity? These questions haunted him, filling his mind with unease and concern.
An even more alarming idea seized his thoughts: Who could have orchestrated this act and for what purpose? Time travel technology was heavily regulated, its illegal use a serious offense. Only a few would have access to it, and none of them would have noble motives to carry out such an action.
As Sam delved into his reflections, a determination grew within him: he must uncover the truth behind this enigma. Not only for the sake of the scientific community and temporal stability but also for his insatiable thirst for knowledge. With determination in his gaze, he promised himself that he would not rest until he found answers and ensured that temporal integrity remained intact.

If the purpose of a Lowrider is to catch the eye, then these 2 definitely succeeded. A style started in California in mid-to-late 1940s, when Mexican-American barrio youths were lowering their cars by cutting spring coils and painting their cars with fancy colors. "Ride low and slow" was their motto. During the years the style changed a bit and hydraulic suspension systems were added and at some point the bouncing cars were popular. As west coast Hip Hop artists started featuring lowriders in the music videos, lowriders became strongly associated with that musical style. Quite the view to see a car like this bouncing to a rap song while waiting for the green light! The rear car I believe is a Lincoln Town Car and the front a 1965 Chevy Impala SS coupe (thank you Joseph Mazzucco)

The Alteration of 1578 must've been a lucky turn of worldly if not religious events for the Butchers' Guild of Amsterdam. That 'Alteration' is the term used to describe the quite sudden transition from Catholicism to Protestantism of the city and its bureaucracy. The Alteration made it possible to turn ecclesiastical properties to public use. in 1583, the Butchers, cramped for space to serve the ever-expanding city, were given the former chapel of St Peter's Almshouse, for their new Great Meat Hall. After two centuries (1779) it had to be renovated, and it lost its purpose around the middle off the nineteenth century.
Except for this marvellously decorated spout gable, the facade today is not very exciting - at least to me. Spout gables ('tuitgevel' in Dutch) were used especially for buildings devoted to merchants and trade. Here this quite wonderful trio of oxen clearly indicates the manner of business of this building's denizens. Of course, their own spouting days are over...
I walked into Bullseye with a purpose, but as soon as I stepped through the sliding doors, I felt the familiar rush of excitement. The holiday season was in full swing, and my mind was set on finding the perfect decorations for my sister Quency's Christmas tree. She always had a way of turning her living room into something magical, and this year, I promised to help her make it even more special.
I grabbed a red cart and made my way through the aisles, eyeing shimmering garlands, twinkling lights, and a mix of ornaments in every color imaginable. As I picked up a few glass baubles that shimmered in the store lights, I couldn't help but smile. It was funny how something as simple as Christmas decorations could bring back so many memories.

Spent a couple evenings in the city while i was up north. Decided to try some night photography and this was one of the shots i kinds liked!
“Gotham” at night is a lot of fun. The lights and reflections make for an interesting challenge for me since i rarely get to shoot in the dark. Where i live is so rural and so dark....and there is the risk of coyote and bear if i stay out too long! don’t get me wrong, i love them but i also like to be able to see them! Here there are only 2 legged animals and i am pretty sure they are there for the purpose of sightseeing!
The tree was up but still scaffolded, but the skaters were out in force, enjoying a pretty mild evening in the city!
Shooting in the dark was fun, and i will go back for more another time.....like when it gets a bit less chilly!

• Um 1930 gründete Ingvald Svendsen eine Station in Ingebrigtsenbukta, die heute Bamsebu genannt wird. Die Station wurde ausschließlich für den Zweck der Weißwaljagd gebaut und ist das einzige erhaltene Beispiel einer solchen Station in Svalbard.
Svendsen errichtetedas Gebäude direkt über dem Strand in Ingebrigtsenbukta und verwandelte es in eine Walfangstation. Die Station besteht aus dem Hauptgebäude, das als Wohnraum diente, zwei kleinen Hütten, drei Booten am Strand und einigen Geräten und Jagdausrüstung, ganz zu schweigen von den Knochen.
• Around 1930 Ingvald Svendsen established a station in Ingebrigtsenbukta, which is now referred to as Bamsebu. The station was built solely for the purpose of white whale hunting, and is the only remaining example of such a station in Svalbard.
Svendsen built the building just above the beach in Ingebrigtsenbukta and turned it into a whaling station. The station consists of the main building that served as living quarters, two small shacks, three boats on the beach and some equipment and hunting equipment, not to mention all the bones.

Guinevere Fouroux's smile deepens when she feels his fingers wrap around hers. It's a small, quiet triumph, a victory, made even sweeter by the ghost of a smile--a real one, however shadowed--quirking his lips.
"I don't suppose I could talk you into dialing down the inspiration, when it comes to keeping you safe, can I?" She sighs, dramatically. "I would guess not, but a girl can dream..."
Eamon Cale's small grin deepens into something genuine. A rare smile, this, one he shows few, but it smooths the harsh lines from his face, and even the bruises and lacerations are softened by it. "Not a chance," he says, and suddenly leans forward, clasping her hand in both of his. His elbows rest on his knees, his back is bowed, but his head is up and his eyes are suddenly alight. "Do ye know what they said to me, in the Leviathan gaol? That Dr. Asbrink, the one who gets his jollies 'experimenting' on the hybrids. He said I'd been put there because I dared to bring hope to Midian. Because I preached freedom." His grin flashes again, boyish and oddly triumphant. "Best fecking compliment I'd ever received."

"Hurray for a child
That makes it through
If there's any way
Because the answer lies in you
They're laid to rest
Before they know just what to do
Their souls are lost
Because they could never find
What's this life for
I see your soul, it's kind of gray
I see your heart, you look away
You see my wrist, I know your pain
I know your purpose on your plane"

A large, former dairy barn is now used to shelter a few horses, a significant departure from its purpose years ago. Older people need a new purpose as they age otherwise deterioration sets in more quickly.

Small act of kindness
One human showing kindness to another. Passing on a few kind words, some food and maybe some amount of cash.
There was no talk of privilege, guilt or saviours.
Not part of a government outreach programme, not due to a swish marketing campaign, just out of kindness.
