PokéSins Evolutions 1 & 2 Early Access

As all these Evolutions specials are free, patrons get one week of early access. For today I present Evolutions 1 and 2! They will release publicly in a week, but for now they're just for you guys.

I'll be doing the next Advanced episode after these, but the next early access Evolutions will drop in a couple of weeks.

Enjoy!

Technical Issues (Again)

Helllllo Rivans.

I treat my electronics very well. Very carefully. I'm still using the same iPod Classic from like 15 years ago.

So why does it feel like my job-essential PC always has some issues?

Sorry. Just wanted to get that off my chest.
The other day my PC force-rebooted 3 times in a row before I got it to behave. Then last night it just completely died. Midnight. No reaction from anything I did.
I spent today fiddling to try and find the problem, and I got it ba...

PokéSins Specials Results

Helllllo Rivans!

Last week I opened a poll to decide if I'd go straight on to PokéSins Season 4 once Season 3 wraps, or if I'd do some of the anime specials.

The results of the poll are:

Evolutions won by a landslide! Almost half the total votes cast were for Evolutions, so I'll be doing that right after Season 3. Episodes will be available one week early to Minun Tier and higher patrons.

Second place was Twilight Wings, although it got half as many votes as Evolution...

PokéSins Specials Next?

Helllllo Rivans!

As we're only a couple of episodes away from the end of Season 3, what do you say to me doing one of the specials mini-series next, before continuing on to Season 4?

Colossal Data Loss

Hi.

Yesterday something very bad happened. Today I saw someone about a quick fix, but that's...not happening. A slow fix MIGHT be possible, but...expensive and slow.

I recently bought a new graphics card and a better power supply. In the process of upgrading the power supply, I didn't change all the power cables, and it seems likely that this...fried the three 2Tb hard drives I had in the PC.
My boot drive is an SSD, and this may have saved it. I can still boot up my...
