December 5nd, 2023 - Happy Sinterklaas Day!
I'm sure Europeans know about it, but to any lurking non-Europeans could simply view it as a "mini-Christmas". Just place slippers under a window, fireplace, etc to receive small gifts from others. Instead of a tree it's simple footwear. There are also other traditional aspects tied to it, maybe such as being smacked in the rear end with a wooden braided rug smacker (or maybe I'm mixing up two festivities with one). It's all in good fun, and I view everything in a Slovakian point of view. It's noted to be Dutch, I however grew up with it in a Slovakian point of view.
Every time I get angry with people it's because of my mixture of Slovakian proper etiquette and Canadian environment. When I see people undoing tradition (burping while eating) I get upset. People need standards and proper etiquette, something people themselves desire less of. Shame.
None of my Canadians celebrate Sinterklaas Day so I simply gifted myself a few gifts, such as these new wireless earbuds. Also obtained slippers, HMDI cable, among other stuff. Simple small things. Even happily received a nice chunk of snow, something to which Montreal obtained 30 cm of snow. We obtained slightly less than them, here in Ottawa.

All hail Bismarck!
(I would proudly show my Canadian naval pride, I however am not allowed to be proudly Canadian. Nobody wants to add Canadians into their naval games, all except for Silent Hunter 3, a game about German Uboats. I'm still angrily awaiting for when Azur Lane and/or KanColle decide to add in Canadian shipgirls to either of the two games, and every other WW2 naval game. Canadians are trash to game developers and I 100% hate those lazy ass game developers. If you're offended by Bismarck then let me have my god damn Canadians. )
KanColle (not Azur Lane) with HMS Warspite in her Santa outfit.

She is an overly elegant and regal character with a soft, yet regal voice. Love her voice overs. Sadly, KanColle suffers from salty gameplay and region-blocking nonsense. Its better to play Azur lane than KanColle, especially for those with a soft heart.
As for Rising World:
I'm still adding small detailing before I post in my other main showcase thread. Trying to clear out more area so I can prepare for trains, and even build more skyscrapers. I'm trying to build a city, even if people annoying call my settlements "villages". I'll post more Rising World goodies later. Everything takes time on both Red51 and our building end. A simple process of creating furniture (in survival mode) takes ages.
Some fun Bing AI fun:
I managed to stump Bing AI this time around while trying to get it to draw some Canadian shipgirls in Slovakia, Bratislava. The more satisfactory results appear to be with trams.



Out of the whole batch, this is my favourite.

Roaming around while reading a map. A girl is even holding up a toy military boat. Sadly, you can't see any Canadian, nor Slovakian emblems. It "tried" to create Bratislava, it however became so highly confused adding every other landmark other than what it desired.
