An Impending Shutdown: uploader.jp is shuttering on 11/25/26

No fancy formatting, just a notice. 

Getuploader was a very popular Japanese filesharing site. If you downloaded the iroiro2 plugin for UTAU, then you've most likely used the website. 

I actually was shocked every time a getuploader link worked because I always confused it with loda, which we lost long ago.

I don't back up any UTAUs and I do not distribute anything without explicit permission. I am not going to be part of the push to preserve any data...

But I figure that I have at least a few readers who would be part of that effort if they were told about it.

I know that an uploader being taken down always means that important things will be lost, but hopefully this advanced notice means that as little will be lost as possible.

Forgotten Friday #407 - Trisha Miraion / 未来音ツリーシャ

 oh no

Forgotten Friday #407 - Trisha Miraion / 未来音ツリーシャ 

Trisha's fandom page doesn't have much information on her as a character - just on her status as the first FRAloid. Her download page has more information... but...

I'm not epileptic. I believe I did describe myself as that in the past because that's what I was being tested for at the time. It wasn't epilepsy! However, I am still photosensitive, perhaps mostly due to my migraines. The download page for Trisha didn't just hurt my head - it made me feel like I was going to puke. Now here's the thing: FRAloids moved sites. Their new site still makes me woozy with the animations, but their old site was entirely too dangerous. I'm not going to track them down to scold them. I literally have no access to some of my old accounts and can't fix issues that I want to fix. I get letting old things be old.

This really, really wouldn't be a big deal if they just linked to Trisha's download page on their new site instead of the old one on the Wiki... But I think she's soft discontinued. Like she's not deleted, but she's no longer a part of their lineup.

Anyway, all that to say... If you have photosensitivity and you fall in love with this bank, get a friend to download her because my photosensitivity isn't even that severe and I'm still woozy.

Mayu is a teenage girl who loves autumn and her birds. She hates powerlines, but I'm not sure why. Is it because she prefers her birds to sit on her shoulders?
