Hello folks! Due to some of the serious AI pushes Notion has been doing recently, I have been trying to seriously migrate my video game tracker database over to work on Obsidian. I have most of the features from my Notion one ported over, but I can't for the life of my figure out how to use the Meta Binds plugin to replicate this particular button from my Notion database entries.

!

I know Meta Bind can be pretty technical, but I'm curious if anyone has any idea how I can replicate this functionality within Obsidian. My goal is essentially to:

1. Be able to press the button, adding the current date to a property of the document I have labeled "last".
2. Add a bullet point with today's date below the button, creating a list of dates that I pressed the button as I press it.

Thanks for reading my post! Any help is appreciated! I've been pouring over the Meta Bind docs to try and figure this out but so far I've had no luck.

Hello folks! Time for another giveaway! This time I've got a leftover from the August Humble Choice. I already had this one, so now here's a chance for one of you fine folks to get it for free!

Thanks for entering! Good luck!

Hello all! My buddy and I finally finished up Baldur's Gate 3 this week and we are not left with a giant co-op game shaped whole in our hearts. It was such an incredible experience and it was truly even more fun running through it together. We are excited to hop into another game, but we have no idea what to play. We've played a lot, and some games we've finished or tried recently included:

• Borderlands 1, 2, and 3
• Minecraft, Terraria, Vintage Story
• Raft, 7 Days to Die
• A Way Out, It Takes Two

I'm posting here today to ask if any of you have some suggestions for co-op games we could check out! I've Googled for suggestions to no end and 90% of what's there is games we've already played. If anyone has any recommendations for us they would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Thanks for all the great suggestions everyone!! I'm going to compile a list and check them all out one by one!

Hey folks, it's been a while! I'm here today with a giveaway for a key to one of my favorite games ever made, Disco Elysium: The Final Cut. I am so excited to share this amazing game with whoever wins this giveaway! Be warned however, there are a few things you might want to consider before entering:

• This game features some very intense content that some people might find disturbing or at the very least depressing. It also has some humor and imagery that some may find offensive.

• There is some serious controversy surrounding the creation of this game and things that happened afterwards that lead to multiple followup projects being canceled and a very messy split with the original concept's creator and the company behind the game. Read more about this here if this is something that may concern you and sway if you want to play the game.

With that stuff out of the way, what is Disco Elysium? According to the Steam Page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/632470/Disco_Elysium__The_Final_Cut/ >A groundbreaking role playing game. You’re a detective with a unique skill system at your disposal and a whole city to carve your path across. Interrogate unforgettable characters, crack murders or take bribes. Become a hero or an absolute disaster of a human being.

Honestly in my opinion though, this doesn't even begin to describe the chaotic intrigue that this game is. I highly recommend this one if you played Baldur's Gate 3 and want to play something similar, albeit a lot different in themes and gameplay. This is also quite a bit shorter.

Anyway, so how do you enter? All you have to do is:

• Comment telling me what games you've been playing recently or what other
• Wait till Friday, June 28th at 10am CST to see if you won! A random comment selector tool will decide if you win. If you do I'll comment on your reply to this post telling you to check your DMs where you will find the key to the game!
• (Optional) Share this post with a friend or fellow lemming to let them get a change to try and win this gem.

Thanks for reading the post and thanks for entering the giveaway! Good luck folks! If you have any spare Steam keys lying around you want to get rid of, this is a great place to do so. DM me if you have any questions!

Unfortunately the first two people I tried to send the key to did not respond to my message. I'll be trying some other folks in the coming days! Thanks!

Thanks to GitHub user zoeyjodon for dropping this incredible 3ds fork for the Moonlight PC game streaming client. You can run this software on any hacked 3ds (though a new 3ds is recommended) to stream PC games from any PC to your 3ds. Although it's not super useful for most games since the 3ds has such a pitiful screen, this is still a really cool piece of homebrew and I imagine running retro games from later than the n64 era could be really sweet. Attached is a picture of me running Super Mario Sunshine through Dolphin on my PC being streamed. There is shockingly a very low level of latency at play here. Just wanted to shout out this cool project. Head to the GitHub page if you want to check it out!

Hello folks! After seeing some anime art generated with AI, I felt inspired to try and generate some nostalgic Ghibli styled images myself. Here's some of my attempts at generating images with the following prompt:

Young woman tending to a garden, in the style of Studio Ghibli, landscapes, hand drawn, paint, art, 1980s anime, pretty

It's fun trying to use Studio Ghibli's unique style in some generations. Here's one with a more mature young woman with the same prompt:

!

I wanted to make an advertisement for a cheeseburger in the style of the art found in many Bibles and similar to the artistic style of Leonardo Divinchi.

Here's the prompt:

A cheeseburger, in the style of the bible, advertisement, hand drawn, Roman era art, Renaissance painting, old

I tried using strictly the style of Divinchi but it wasn't yielding the kind of result I wanted.

Warning! Spooky post!

I wanted to see what it would look like if the president was a skeleton. So I used Midjourney to remove all term limits!!

Prompt:

a skeleton as the president of the United States, in the style of CNN, political, podium, interview, news, television

Another interesting result:

!

Hello all, I've been experimenting with trying to get Midjourney to generate super heroes and here is one of my favorite results so far. Generated with this prompt:

superhero, in the style of comic book art, dramatic, contrast, vibrant, bold, thick outlines

Some other results, including a weird Batman Superman hybrid:

!

Generated with Midjourney using the following prompt:

Ghost of Tsushima

Without a doubt, Ghost of Tsushima is one of my favorite games of all time. This generation by Midjourney perfectly represents the vibe and aesthetic of the game. Really loved how this turned out.

Hello everyone! Things have slowed down quite a bit over on Gift of Gaming, so I thought I would post about it on here to get some more eyes on it. We are a community dedicated to hosting Video Game giveaways! You can come join for a chance to win some games, or if you're feeling generous you could always host a giveaway too!

Right now I am personally doing a giveaway for Doom Eternal, and I hope that by giving away a bit more of a substantial release I can bring in some new people to the community. A lot of our previous giveaways had no one enter, so we had to close them and keep the unredeemed keys.

If hosting or winning giveaways for video games sounds interesting to you, we'd love to have you join in. Many more giveaways are planed for the future. I have 300 keys that I have been holding onto from Humble Bundles over the years, so there just might be a game in there you might want. Thanks for listening!!

> Back in May of 2022, I was bored so I decided to boot up Brickadia and create some pixel art of the map of Pallet Town. It took me a few minutes to find the map of the town online, load it up in a pixel art software, and recreate the color pallet (pun intended) in Brickadia. Over the next hour I proceeded to place each of the blocks down to perfectly match the pixel art in the original games. After finishing that I was thinking about how it would be neat to make the pixel art 3D. > > I spent the next four hours systematically making 3D voxel models in Brickadia of all of the objects in the town, filling out the town as I went. I had finished everything except the patch of tall grass and Professor Oak's Lab before having to close the game to go to work. I would then forget about the entire project until today, July 28th 2023, when I accidentally stumbled across the files on my PC. > > I spent only another few hours making Oak's Lab and the tall grass models, placing them in the scene and finishing the town. I can't believe I forgot about the project!! It was a lot of fun and really not too bad for only taking about six hours or so. The hardest part was definitely the water area, because I had to decide how to make the 2D texture of the rock 3D while maintaining the pattern on all sides to keep it looking seamless. I think the finished version looks pretty acceptable, but there where some ugly versions in there at one point. > > That's about it. Thanks for listening to my story about my fun little day project.

I'm currently running a sci-fi D&D campaign, and I needed an image to represent the spooky spider boss crawling around in the sewers under the city.

Generated with Midjourney using the following prompt:

an image of a spider in the shadows, in the style of sci-fi sewers, richly detailed genre paintings, airbrushing, neogeo, space art, blacks, handsome --ar 16:9

If you happen to be a person who plays D&D with me who stumbled upon this post, please ignore. There is no giant spider in the sewers. Don't worry about it.

Hello folks! Mod team here! (Just me right now lol.)

I thought it would be fun for the community to be able to pick what icon and banner we use to decorate our page. In this thread, we are going to vote on the images you think should represent us. For the original icon and banner images I just went back through my Midjourney generation history and picked a few cool looking images, so I figure they are overdue for being replaced anyway. I'm sure you folks have far better ideas and cooler images that we could be using instead.

Here's how to we will run the vote:

• The most upvoted reply with a proposed icon image will be set to the community's icon.
• The most upvoted reply with a proposed banner image will be set to the community's banner.
• I will periodically be checking back on this post and updating the images, so feel free to enter at any time. Whatever image has the highest votes at the time I check will replace the current image.

Some things to keep in mind:

• NSFW images are not allowed for the icon or banner.
• Please only submit a maximum of one icon and one banner at a time. If you want to submit a new icon or banner, please delete your old reply and make a new one.
• If you want to submit images for both the icon and the banner, please create separate replies. Replies with more than one image WILL NOT be considered.

Let me know if you have any questions or concerns in regards to how we are operating this vote. Thanks for visiting the community!!
