Happy Moore's Law Day, everybody! For the thirty-fifth anniversary issue of Electronics magazine, which was published on April 19, 1965, Gordon E. Moore, who was working as the director of research and development at Fairchild Semiconductor at the time, was asked to predict what was going to happen in the semiconductor components industry over the next ten years. His response was a brief article entitled, "Cramming more components onto integrated circuits". Within his editorial, he speculated that by 1975 it would be possible to contain as many as 65,000 components on a single quarter-inch semiconductor. "The complexity for minimum component costs has increased at a rate of roughly a factor of two per year. Certainly over the short term this rate can be expected to continue, if not to increase. Over the longer term, the rate of increase is a bit more uncertain, although there is no reason to believe it will not remain nearly constant for at least 10 years."

OK, so I couldn't resist it. An RO Holidays fanart. xD Featuring my iRO characters, 'Un' the Summoner and Thomas Benedicta the Archbishop... and their pets! Un has a little piglet in her pouch, while Thomas has a little ghost by his side.

Meanwhile, some people over here tried to ruin the celebration times with their bad vibes and anti-Christmas sentiments... such party poopers.

Happy holidays, everybody. 🎄 May y'all be able to spend it with people who are precious to you.

Complementing BGM: [Jeremy Soule – "Snow Covered Landscape"] (Dungeon Siege II OST, 2005)

I wanted to draw something for the winter as I usually would, but I had no idea of what and who to draw. My pal, @/TheSalguod on dA gave me an idea, so here it is. I forgot to add Vic's dark circles under his eyesssss aaaaaaaaa (will edit the dA version only later on)

While everyone gets cosy and comfy in their homes or being with close friends and families, our lone ranger Vic travels from the Northern District back to the Capital District during this time off. He's got no friends up north or whatever anyway (and Aaron doesn't count as one). Once in the Capital, he gets a call from Tsumura to hang out; maybe grab a drink at Crimson Angel Restaurant. Vic was about to decline because he'd prefer to be on his own, but then he realised it's the holidays, man. And so here they are, having hot chocolate and taking a break from life.

Vic thinks to himself that maybe he does have a friend, after all. And sure, it snows almost every day in Sigma, but sometimes even the most mundane of things feel better when enjoyed with good company.

WEEKLY #ASTROLOGY FORECAST | #DECEMBER 25TH TO DECEMBER 31ST, 2023 - AN OTHER-WORLDLY WEEK AHEAD WITH EXTRA DOSES OF COMPASSION, NOSTALGIA AND LOVE, AND, WELL, IT WOULDN'T BE THE #HOLIDAYS WITHOUT SOME ARGUING, TOO, WOULD IT? MERRY CHRISTMAS!

..."The Venus/Neptune will color the holiday week with compassion, nostalgia, LOVE. Having this aspect on Christmas is a true blessing. Things are slightly unfocused, giving everything a magical/mystical view. Boundaries dissolve. Forgive. Connect. Carry tissues.

OUR CONTENTMENT AND JOY INCREASES WHEN WE LET GO (Pisces) OF WHAT WE HAVE BEEN FIXATED ON (Scorpio).

With Mars trining the North Node at the same time, there is an opportunity here to take action toward what we want. To be more self-sustaining. Independent. True to ourselves. NEW.
...
With the Sun trining Jupiter - one of the best aspects in astrology and an Earth trine to boot, we will talk more about this in the Full Moon post next! - and coming off the Full Moon in the Moon's own sign - the ENERGY THIS WEEK IS HUGE. And moving in many directions at once. Doors open. The king and the king of the Gods are working together. Karmic knots are untangling and chickens are coming home to roost.
...
This is the last year in our lifetime where we will end the year with Pluto in Capricorn, where he has been since 2008. A way of life is ending. LONG cycles are closing out. Cappy energy has alot to do with keeping safe by acquiring/by having one voice (or following one voice). Aquarius is about finding ways - and, this is going to have ALOT to do with TECH - for all of us to have our own unique voices. The last time Pluto was in Aquarius we had the American and French revolutions.

What kind of revolution will the next 20 years bring?"...
