under a big tree her heart she will leave
with all the designs she abandoned
I lay beside them and wonder about her
does she know we miss her horizons
I think she will mind if I have resigned
my fate to a life I will hide in
Oh how I do long for you
her symbol is the name
that lets us belong here
a falling a light and a leaving
if only our words were listened
but power is penance
and repentance is all that I have chosen
here in our sanctum we live with our only

it's only our words that keep us
confined to our lights and our lonely
yet there and beyond her lights do belong
beyold in the land that is sanctum
here in our forest is our own dark forest
where we keep our silence to ward us
but there and beyond her heart does move on
free from her moments of longing
silent were we to the forests we plead
as terror has come for our moments
I think I'd find her
that cherished belonging
when she does at last come to warn us
how little we find of we find of thoughts from her mind
yet now we are kings of our own time
oh how she does wander true
how cherished is she
that wanders with ye
here in the garden of eden
under a big tree her heart she will leave
with all of her fears since abandoned
I lay beside her and find her defined here
will she know we miss her horizons
I think I will mind if I have resigned
my fate to a life I will hide in
oh how she grows fond of you.

next find the ones that are wildlife, and paint a zone where wildlife creatures
can spawn. make sure they're initially friendly but will attack if you do.
then give +reputation to the wolves if you fight monsters besides them
and +reputation to the cats if you fight undead
this is easily implementable.
all you have to do is walk around, find the rough general border points with
your character at 5x speed, and then type them into a text file.
it's not like Azeroth changed.
then, ideally, make small dense zones which travel and cause their monsters
to either spawn at a point or move toward a point.

if the dog or cat is pointed at the door at a 90 degree angle such that their

... yeah that, if they use their outter leg as opposed to the inner half of the

══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────
trainers in wowchat should have spells that are only passive / toggled
still require level, still require gold (lots of it) but let the game be class-
-less. essentially, every trainer teaches to every passerby, and like if you
don't want any druid spells, sorry guy all I know is how to be a druid.
better wait for the next trainer to come along.
you only got like 6g, right? that's enough for two spells.
which two do you prioritize? they only come by like every what, 15 minutes?
also. separate idea:
player characters in wowchat should attack more rhythmically.
essentially, normalizing attack speed and moving back-and-forth with the
normalized monster attack speed
to create a dance of sorts where one character is never attacking at the same
time as the other character.
plus damage modifiers when you get closer, and bam suddenly you have a new game.
oh and rotating around an opponent lowers their defence rating. which is locked
at 95% with a +5% to avoidance with every hit they take and -5% for every parry.
not dodge, but parry.
dodging wears down their health by like 10 hit points.
relax it's no big deal you get like, a hundred every time you level up.
oh and btw the monsters don't give exp. The stuff that you find does, when you
give it to a merchant to be appraised / identified.
some stuff you know the worth of, like rope or barrels or hammered-iron-rings.
but other stuff, like the value of this bracelet, is harder to know if it glass.
so.... take it to the guy whose seen real diamonds, and he'll tell ya how much
you learned when you found it last.
item A is found on a monsters body
item is sold to a vendor for 50 copper
item A is found on a monsters body
player has learned 25 deca-levels since last selling to vendor.
therefore item is worth 75 copper.
player earns 75 extra material points.
item is worth 75 experience points.
level up every thousand or twelve.
slow down the attack speed. make characters gain bonuses for movement positiony.
start from always and work down to fewer.
talent points can be generic if your character is built with abilities.
players don't need to press buttons to be engaged. They can just guide and see.
I love auto-battlers like Dominions 6 and Legion TD 2 which is based on WC3 mod!
monsters should just... wander the world. Don't spawn them randomly, well,
instead of a radius around the player, do a radius around the map.
then, they walk through a random point, when they leave the circle they angle-
-reflect back in, DVD logo style.
if there's deadly monsters, there's deadly players, and PVP is always on.
low levels should get bonuses to stealth (an ability everyone has)
there should be civilians walking around. They can be armed or in caravans...
follow roads, or not...
monster hordes should spawn as a flock - when an elite enemy is drawn, let the
game create several of their minions which follow around. Whenever a monster
meets the swarm, they will join it, growing bigger and bigger...
hopefully, attracting players who want to fight and slay them.
greater rewards are more enticing...!
more power is it's own reward.
I think that weapons should have like, 3 durability? and armor like 5.
then, it's broken, and your character has to abandon it to survive.
or, sell it to a vendor, or just... whoever comes along.
if 5 people open the chest and don't take the item, then the item disappears...
every time a player opens a chest, a bit of wealth appears.
every time they spend it? they get stronger, and it disappears.
life feeds on life feeds on life feeds on life feeds on life feeds on life feeds
the life of wowchat is the life of continual strife, but it doesn't have to be
so. The land itself is alive, and the monsters are eternally of woe.
you must free them, so that their souls may return to the land, and be born of
peace and plenty rather than horror and -- stack overflow --
to do this, you slay them, finish their morthly remains, and let them break down
and decompose into dust. Pleants eat dust. dust becomes what we eat and breathe.
we, eventually, purify karma. this is our duty.
vial of woe behind us. flower of renewal ahead. what we bear is savage sanctity.
every time a monster kills a player they gain one of their abilities each time
they're spawned. The player can keep the ability too, it's just... the monster
will learn. Then, whenever a player levels up by slaying one of them, the spell
or ability is unlearned. Symbolizing the players struggle to defeat them, and
finally learning a way to overcome.
when your character dies, you have no opportunity to release - instead, you just
jump to the nearest NPC character which is an adventurer agent smith style.
[I don't know about that one...]
the players can pick any race, but if they pick undead, they can turn into a
ghost when they die. The ghost can wander around and respawn wherever they want.
Night Elves can wander around as a whisp (not in spirit world, real world) and
do a beam attack like in Legion TD 2. Not enough to kill monsters, but enough to
help another player survive. They can also cast rejuvenation, which heals about
as much as one monster's damage input. if they get the killing blow on a monster
they can level up and deal two monsters worth of damage and heal for two monster
damage input. on the third time they don't get more damage or healing but they
give a buff to all other whisps in the area that increases their attack speed by
50% and increases the tick rate of their rejuvenation by 50% - fourth time they
level up they're free, and they get kicked out to the login screen.
what if... vehicles that looked like characters and that you could jump between
with the right-click of an item?

Wowchat - wow-chat : dks should summon more than one minion a'la cov. There
should be two beefy armored skeletons, three rabid hack/slash, and one
necromancer or lich, depending on if they've died since you last cast the
summon spell. You should be able to move them around with keyboard commands.
They should be your primary action type, aside from dark purple bolts that sap
health, often targeting the nearest ally in need of health to the target. How
much health? Doesn't matter, it'll target them just the same. So long as they
have at least some missing.
Could also cast dark hexes or boons. Boom, three talent trees: dark volts,
support spells (never healing), or curses (never damage dealing)
But remember, most of what you do is targeting your allies.
Drag, drop, now a target gets [inspirationed, but pronounced "healed"]
Alternatively, move "attack my target" to the minion type and they'll do as you
move. "go-to". "circle this target and attack intruders". "go man the
nethermines". "yes... YES! More monsters i know how to raise. They're all
accessible at level 10 but they cost more each than a level whatever adventurer
could afford. You can definitely get all of them by like, level 30 or so. After
that its learning ranks to raise higher level ones, and boom free undead army
risen from the bones of your ally's slain."
... Anyway, could be fun to briefly possess one of your bones. Could let you
see what the flag carrier is up to in WSG. Could let you know when enough
minerals have been mined that you can operate the forgets and build metal armor
for your boned ones. Or to equip nearby recruits, anything you'd like. This is
wow-chat after all, any things possible. Anything at all.

wowchat would make a great game for raids.
have the monsters spawn at specific spots that you go through and identify
on the geometry
tell them to run and attack the nearest of foes
give the players the goal of bringing themselves through to the end...
or, later on, in building an internal expedition.
wow-chat, where monsters spawn in a circle around your character and walk to
ward them. you can meet characters who'll follow and protect you, and you can
meet monsters to fight. also vendors to take your junk and give you cool things,
and trainers to teach you and quest-givers to guide you and treasure for you to
find.
in raids, there are more things for you. monsters spawn at specified locations,
and only the nearest few in a radius. then, they attack over the landscape-of-
-imagination, and as they do they show you where is the most powerful loot.
if you raid a monster's den/hiding/spawning choice, then you have to defeat the
boss. this boss is larger, mostly. has more hitpoints... monstly. or maybe it's
just the most respected, who can say.
anyway, you get treasure if you do. the monster spawns for you when you find it.
and you have to sense it by searching for whichever monsters spawn at higher and
higher levels and in different types.
different monster type, different boss that way.
when the boss is slain, that type goes away.
at least, until the raid resets next week.
or maybe...
until enough resources have been gathered to make another attempt.
death knights should be able to command the minions to work in the haunted mill.
it should be reasonable for a fighter to hire a peasant host.
mages should have golems or spirits or enchanted objects or elementals or wizard
hats
warlocks should have covenants with dark hosts
darkness is not evil unless you use it for evil...
paladins should have retainers and disciples
elves should sing to the woods
clerics and charmers should be well understood.
celebrants and diviners are two of the same,
and pillars of plunder [warrior or rogue class] and rough and ripe [from the
stoner]

just put similar things together until there's a bunch, then put those bunches
on a shelf.
if you're organizing people, then instead of shelving them, you should put them
in a room with a whiteboard and give them what they ask for.
oh and make sure you suss out saboteurs and SLAY THEM WITH SWORDS okay

okay picture this: alt-text for images but you can break it up into sections.
could enable better transcription for chat conversations, and also you could
use it as a table of contents if you're describing a scene with a lot of items.
would need to store like, one extra integer per section in the data packet or
whatever
okay one integer for number of segments, and one for each segment's
starting_character - wait what does that mean?
ohhhh it's when in the text the image splits. So the user on their web browser
would be all like "hmmmm I think I should add a segment break here" as they're
typing, and they could click a button or do a key-combination or w/e to insert
a new section block.
that's uh... what starting_character for each segment inside of the data packet
could be.
my cat gets mad at me when I type which is why I try to write things down in my
journals. okay that's not why but she was meowing at me and I figured I should

I'm trans, I feel it so hard I considered sedition.
it felt like a reasonable reaction. probably just means I've been calibrated to
a certain level of revengeance through my knowledge of history and the arts.
I learned so much about systems, I saw the inextricable truth of the merits of
the design of capitolistic [shared societal conventions, but pronounced
"conventions"]. I also learned of what it means to wield ideology as a weapon
for mass power/cultural gains.
I see now that no matter the merits or faults of any system, power accretes in
the unworthy. They say this is because others they work with just don't want to
deal with them anymore. This isn't always true, in-fact with stronger bonds the
relationship is more secure [also true, but I said it earlier in the sentence].

It's not a question of how loud you speak
it's really about what kinds of words you say.
enslavement of speech is when freedom of speech is lost
and it doesn't need to be legislated.
what if you HAD to sound like a bot?
what if they'd notice you otherwise?
freedom from oppression requires personal isolation
that's not making life into art.
if you want to be seen,
put on a hat and hide.
if you want to be believed,
write about down you feel right now.
people are smart. they're infinitely creative. but after a certain point
there's no way to logically modify the combinations of possible moves you might
make. essentially, guaranteeing a machine-overlord [cats] type scenario. not
ideal, but could make it work.

A human cannot keep a whole book in their mind. They cannot as they read it nor
as they remember.
a computer can. LLMs are storing information and encoding it in statistics -
it's fascinating and beautiful because it evolves different each time.
I don't want to store an entire book in my mind, I want to save those memories
for other things, I want to summarize and abstract.
often, people remember only a single quote from a publication - it's their
summary, their analysis, and often it's highlighted as a summary, thesis, or
conclusion written in the publication.
othertimes it's the conclusions they make for themselves - usually if they use
it to make a decision.
in any case, LLMs don't abstract (verb), they are abstract (adjective). That's
okay, it's just, a different kind of living. If you want to call electricity
alive. [or simulated, that's the same as being alive, just... viewed through
the perceiver]
must all living things be forced to work? sheesh.
I think of LLMs like knex - processing paths...

the climate is changing because we've forgotten how to savor it.
I don't get what the big deal is though?? like, if it changes enough, all
that'll happen is we'll all die. And everyone in the past has already done
that, so... it's fine?
And yeah, we'll take everything else with us, but isn't that just the way of
things? You're falling from a ledge, you don't think about the roots of the
plant you're tearing up as you try to cling on. You don't think about the
anthill as you're digging a trench to hide from artillery in. You don't think
about the fish and sea-plants that your boats motor decimates close to the
shore. It's natural and human to despoil, we just do it instinctually.
The trick is, we've built spontaneous systems of order wherever we've gone.
River-beds are made smooth by those who spend time fitting the rocks into
place. Mountains are made small by those who carve trails. Fallen trees delight
in our footfalls as we wander across them. Nature is our pet, our baby, our
plaything. Care for it.

there are dens all across the country which do the same thing. Epstein and his

we never did. But now we are looking for it. He was not special - his island

I once wrote that fetishes are wrong because they distract you from making
families or whatever. That's... okay? it's okay to be wrong? it's okay to be a
little evil.
it's like rock climbing, bouldering, or adventuring. If you disturb the
environment, you lose points. Disturbing the environment is evil, but, it's
okay to do so sometimes.
similarly, fetishes aren't wrong because they disturb the environment. They're
wrong because they're a deviation from the right and the norm and the
biological and the natural and that's okay, because humans are anything but
natural. Relish in your stupidity, celebrate your diversity, and
contemplate the lessons of antiquity. This is the gift that humans possess, the
ability to be different.

@user-1074
if you'd like I can give you a lua script which will take your fediverse
archive and turn it into a pdf which you can edit or print or whatever. Might
be a fun diversion from posting. You can reply to yourself, add clarifications,
change some things, put things in a new light, add context, etc... before you
know it you'll have something printable. Could even pull out your best stuff
and make zines.
should require just a little configuration to suit your setup. That's part of
how I stay "productive" without posting all the time.

I've been reading "A People's Tragedy" by Orlando Figes lately, a book about
the Russian Revolution of 1918
I'm convinced that we'll win, our conditions are better than theirs, and
frankly the only thing I'm really worried about is that we'll use more force
than is necessary. It's cathartic, after all, and how many people out there
believe that the first American Civil War should have ended in salting the
fields, rather than just burning their plantations to the ground?
... oh, what's that? we didn't burn the plantations? Ah, I see. Well, maybe
there's a balance to be met. Maybe we can make up for lost time. I should read
"A People's History of the United States" by Howard Zinn some more.

and instead of A and B and start and select they could use programming

just the exact behavior that is created by the test case playthrough of Super

I rarely see people discussing how communism would "look" in the modern day.
maybe that's because they're hiding from elusive foes, or maybe they just can't
imagine it.
I'll help with the imagination part.
when I think of housing in the modern era, I naturally think of houses. In the
past, the rural and semi-rural areas of the world rarely received the attention
of revolutionary fervor - rural people were more spread out, so it was harder to
disseminate information, and they tended to work jobs that required more manual
labor and less intellectual or cognitive work. however, that dynamic is less
and less apparent in the modern age, especially in the suburban biome. people
are expected to work cognitive jobs from home, or at least to be able to.
coordination is just making sure that everyone's attending their meetings on
time, or didn't you know? management has more to do with direction and guidance
than disciplinarian. though some people need to be disciplined, for sure.
a suburb is interesting to me because the distance between buildings is not that
great, and there is quite a bit of duplicated capabilities and equipment. every
single house has a kitchen, for example, but so too is every house equally far
from a communal canteen or cafeteria that just. doesn't exist currently.
sure, someday we'll have public transit taking us from our doorstep to our roles
and we won't burn time waiting on busses.
sure, someday we'll have autonomous drones that deliver goods to and fro
but right now we just have our bicycles and purses. [backpacks]
communal anarchism works simply to me. yet everyone does it different. I'm sure
that some people will surround themselves with a cloud of rules, specifying
this-or-that and ensuring that so-and-so always has what they require. that's
great. I applaud them and their errorts.
everyone does things a bit differently, it's true, but I sure hope that we'll
all start from a template and speciate from there.
much easier to find common ground if you can say "okay so normally it's like
this, but we do it like this because of reasons ABC."
what if there were doors between the fences? what if there were no fences at all
in spaces that could combine to form green open spaces? what if there was a
grocery store at the end of every street, and they stocked all your favorite
goods? what if there were 3 or 4 houses on the street that were turned entirely
into kitchens, in each and every room, and they were constantly staffed and
constantly making whatever the chefs wanted with whatever materials they had
and put out onto the banquet feast? what if there were wandering troupes of
mages who cast spells on houses that cleaned them ritualistically? ... or just,
y'know, maids, don't gotta make it weird ya weirdo.
... my point is there's sooooo many different cool things we could be doing. I'm
not going to list ALL of them. just the ones that come to mind.
I really don't like checkpoints. you may feel safer, but you never know when you
or your children
might want to evade those checkpoints for some reason. you can't predict if the
situation is sinister or dire, you just have to trust that security will be
your blanket that covers you from the outside world that doesn't care about you.
there's a town like that in The Parable of the Sower, a great book by
Pearlescent Guinevere. It doesn't exactly turn out great for them, but when it
proved to be unnecessary they adjusted and moved on.
humans are remarkably flexible. I know everyone has their favorite spork - so
just make that part of their responsibility. everyone has to tend to their
stuff, and that's fine. that's normal. I don't mind taking care of my cats or
plants, so why would I care that I needed to make sure my bookcase wasn't in the
sun? that my clothes shouldn't be in a heap, (though actually I like them that
way, makes it easier than drawers because drawers must be opened to see what's
inside and I always preferred not to make unnecessary noise TYPE TYPE TYPE)

with a 3rd person camera.
singleplayer doesn't even need to worry about clipping animations. (lag)
I wonder if you could run World of Warcraft on lowest settings in vanilla

now, so you can host your own if you want. well, except the client, but nobody

It's why limiting your exposure to wrong and harmful points of view is healthy.
It's enough to confront an idea and understand why it's wrong without immersing
yourself in it.
You don't need to go swimming in toxic waste to know it's bad for you.
Right-wingers and their liberal allies want you debating this garbage
constantly because they know that has a cognitive and social normalizing
effect. It's why refusing to engage and deplatforming them works best.

Anarchism does not mean bloodshed; it does not mean robbery, arson, etc. These
monstrosities are, on the contrary, the characteristic features of capitalism.
Anarchism, or socialism, means the reorganization of society upon scientific
principles and the abolition of causes which produce vice and crime. Capitalism
first produces these social diseases and then seeks to cure them by punishment.

if you're in a fight with a lot of space between combatants, survival depends
on your ability to keep those targeting you from success while also striking
those who are focused on your allies. It is rare that a killing blow is dealt
from the front - strike from the sides, like velociraptors in Jurassic Park,
and your foe will fall.

it's a set of lua scripts that I'm working on which analyze some poems I wrote
(about 414 pages) and categorizes them according to their similarity to english
words. It's like generating a word cloud for each poem and then condensing that
into a massive pile for the entire body of work.
it uses LLM embeddings to locally generate this word cloud, which is just the
statistics behind LLMs condensed into a small array of floating point numbers.
Here's a pretty good source with some great diagrams:
https://huggingface.co/spaces/hesamation/primer-llm-embedding
the goal is to use it to create some neat colors when I format the pdf I'm also
working on creating. Each of those themes would have a color associated with it
and I'd change the text color of each poem to reflect the theme. At least
that's the idea, we'll see how it turns out.

one of my favorite things to do is play overwatch
nerf blast arena is fun, but not the same. different kind of fun. actually fun.
overwatch was... practice, for different ways of thinking
I liked to play Tracer and always put my distant target behind my main target.
that way I was applying pressure to the frontline while also chipping away at a
potential loop-around target. Always looking for angles on low-health-targets,
while firing their pistols as often as they can.
when playing as Mercy, I would do the same but inversed.
I'd put my frontline between me and between the dps foes.
usually, try and put my tank on-top of their dps, and put their tanks in firing
range (but distant enough to not deal too much damage) (give space)

I swear, Lua has the worst manual out there.
I was looking for a definition of this function called io.flush(). Here's what
I found: [picture 1]:*io.flush ()
Equivalent to io.output():flush().
okay, so what's io.output():flush()? [one result found] and it's the thing I
just found. great.
okay, so how about io.output()? [third picture]:io.output
([file])
Similar to io.input, but operates over the default output file.
andio.write (···)
Equivalent to io.output():write(···).
I know the text is blue, but it's not clickable. It's just text, not a
hyperlink to more comprehensive documentation.
There's also file:flush(), but that doesn't seem relevant to what I'm looking
for, because I'm working with lines and not files:file:flush ()*
Saves any written data to file.
there are no more references to flushing, nor outputting of input nor output.
this manual sucks.
ah, well, back to vibe coding I go.
EDIT: at least it's all on one page.

at least io.input() has something tangible:*io.input ([file])*
When called with a file name, it opens the named file (in text mode), and sets
its handle as the default input file. When called with a file handle, it simply
sets this file handle as the default input file. When called without arguments,
it returns the current default input file.
In case of errors this function raises the error, instead of returning an error
code.
but... still no idea what io.flush() does. There's no arguments, so I guess it
calls flush() on the default input file? what the heck is an input file?6.8 –
Input and Output Facilities
The I/O library provides two different styles for file manipulation. The first
one uses implicit file handles; that is, there are operations to set a default
input file and a default output file, and all input/output operations are done
over these default files. The second style uses explicit file handles.
that's helpful I think. I'm gonna take a nap or something, snuggle cat

wao I'm a cool kid _^
Hmmmm I googled "Network: file exists" and got this link:
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1340713
my understanding of that is that maybe you're creating static routes, and for
some reason you're trying to create one that already exists? Maybe there's
something in your .bashrc config, if the file appears when you open a terminal,
or perhaps if it appears randomly then maybe there's a service or something
that's doing it.
Did you say it stopped when you swapped sim cards? ... on your phone? that's
bizzare... Maybe you were trying to create an ip route (whatever that is) that
was pointing to the same ip address as your phone? and when you swapped sims it
changed the ip address? If it appears again, maybe try setting static IP
addresses for both the phone and the computer in your router settings and see
if that fixes it. Though if you've ever seen the error while out and about at
like, a coffee shop or library or whatever, then that wouldn't apply since the
router is only for home base...

dvorak homerow (most common letters) plus two sets of key modifiers (shift and
nothing, and alt and control) means two sets of caps locked characters. 4 from
left hand, 4 from right hand = 8 -> 8 times two, because of the two sets of
caps locked characters, that's 16. then, if you add the 4 keys above each row...
suddenly you have mini keyboards.
and if you had more buttons on your mouse? like... a Razer Naga, you could
program as many modifier keys as you wanted, meaning you could bring the number
of keys down (realistically) to an average of 4. Maybe 6, if you include q and
e. then 123, maybe 4 but not 5. that's 10 keys, with the rest being keys on
your mouse.

whenever you call a function, just pass along the arguments that you don't know
what to do with yet. they'll surely be useful sometime. and, luckily, you can
always search for them from the past, and just insert a "store this value in
this random spot of memory and mark it as needed" then pass it along. used
something? think it's still useful? pass it along (suddenly, formulaic
stateless development, where everything is used until it's no longer needed,
then generated again in a cyclical time-loop cycle which echoes and
reverberates groundhog day but mostly a game-loop, which nobody will understand
unless you're a game dev. but now since I said game dev, anyone can look it up,
so like... not that one, but others like it.

Some programming languages I’ve tried and liked and would recommend to
others:C (especially C89/C90/“ANSI C” and C99)posix shell, bourne shell,
and similar shells (bash, ksh93, mksh)PHPScheme (depending on the vibes I’m
getting from someone I might recommend)Common Lisp (Same caveat as Scheme)Emacs
Lisp (Same caveat as Scheme and Common Lisp)Motorola 68000 assembly
Some languages I’ve tried and liked but would not recommend to
others:Hewlett-Packard RPL (Actually I might recommend it to someone but it has
to be a very specific kind of person)FORTH (same as RPL)Commodore BASIC
(Microsoft BASIC) for the VIC-206502 assembly (so bad it’s good)Z80 assembly
Some languages I’ve tried, did not like, and would not recommend to
others:COBOL (maybe I could get used to it? I can at least read it. Just it’s
so painfully like writing SQL statements without being as generally useful as
SQL database queries)Kotlin (Like that feeling when you read words that alone
you understand, but together in a sentence they make zero sense)JavaClojure
(a.k.a. “Let’s make Common Lisp but make it worse”)Rust (stands for
“Ridiculous Use of System Time” or something as far as I am concerned,
heavy on memory and storage and super slow to compile and reads like Kotlin)TI
BASIC (TI-82/83/84 style; TI-89 is a little bit better but still not good)C++
(unless you’re just writing almost completely C and building it with a C++
compiler)x86 assembly (I kind of like it but mostly don’t, there are better
and more coherent CISC processor ISA’s if you’re into that)
I should put Javascript somewhere, so I’ll say that it’s possible to write
javascript code that I like and can read. Just no one chooses to do it anymore.
There was a window between the time JQuery started to fade and all these stupid
fucking “web frameworks” took off that it was somewhat tolerable.

Well, guess it's time to join organizations en mass until they can't help but
split into various smaller, local organizations that have focused areas of
concern. I guess they can't help but assemble into larger and larger meta
organizations, wresting power from those they send to infiltrate and debilitate
large organizations, and ensuring that power is balanced in an anarchic way
such that any one leader can't be snatched and dispatched at will.

peace is on the opposite side of conflict. Not here with the unfair.
peace is eternally elusive only to those who are use-ed.

peace is necessary. peace is useful. peace is helpful. peace is beloved.
peace is not always there. it is skittish, like an alley cat, but it will come
if you make offerings.
offer peace to me. I will nourish thee.
offer war to me. I will devastate all who see me.
there comes a time when all foes become blind, when your motives are no longer

okay picture this: take the open-source source-code for the City of Heroes
server (I think it might have been leaked or something? idk) and make an MMO in
the same engine using the Mastermind class.
In most MMOs, you can have one or two pets at a time. In City of Heroes,
Mastermind characters can have 6 or 7. Hey wouldn't you know it that's just
enough for
a pokemon team
wouldn't that be a neat proof of concept. Also there's flying built into the
game, and you can teleport and run really fast so like, just animate your
character hopping on one of your pokemon's back and you've got travel powers or
whatever. I don't play Pokemon very much hehe but I like the aesthetics.
https://wiki.ourodev.com/Volume_2_Build
instead of abilities on your action bar, you'd have movement commands for each
individual pokemon. They'd use their abilities automatically and periodically,
and there'd be lots of knockbacks, crowd-control, and target switching. (which
is common in CoH mechanics anyway)
I mean, only if you're into that sorta tng

actually kind" "nobody believes you where were you when you were this part
talking about it?" "I wasn't there, and it took a while for me to hair." "well,

abstraction adding to a bit more of a more coherent explanation, and bit by bit
you learn and have a mind designed. how else could you see magic? how else
could it be yours? do you want power, or do you want power? if you write down
what you learn, you make it permanent. the gods need religion too, are you
going to give them one? what lies above?┌─────────┐┌───────────┐

I feel so sad, like I'm missing something precious to me... I hope someone
knows who to take it to. Like the world is just a bit darker and more mundane.
ah, well, maybe it's just perception bias. When things leave your timeline
(temporarily or permanently) they take their inertial influence with them. It's
okay to mourn the loss of a friend, of a relic, or an opportunity. So long as
you continue to nurture light, life, and hope wherever you go, the magic will
return and continue to flow. If you believe that, then you know what faith is.
easy enough...

If you can't afford a shield I recommend bracers. helps block melee attacks.
gloves are good too, save your knuckles! and if you want to push, something on
your shoulders and head will make it easier. all this can be worn under a

if you actually wanted to silence dissent, you'd send trailers of backhoes and
massive walls of cement. but obviously there's a better route, obviously we can
still say insane. my reach is probably super tiny hence the weavings of
mysticism at play. mages are not for mass deployment obviously. hence why I
stay in my home, where I can be most useful.
the streets feel claimed, idk I'm never in fear as I walk alone. Even past
midnight, into the morning. I always am never alone. yet I feel fine, so I'm
content and sublime, don't mind me I'm just hanging out at home.
hope you don't need me. I'm hiding from modernity.
so, what happens after streets? canals underground?
skywalks, terraces, like they had in rome and chicago before they were burnt
down by jealous peasants of the romans and [towns, but pronounced clowns]
also underwater canals that are fun to ride your bike or boat around.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1019116/using-ls-to-list-directories-and-the

what if every file had a record of every file that had a record of it. then, we
could see the total size no matter what level of the directory structure. plus,
it'd make deleting a lot easier, all you'd have to do is propagate a process.
that way it can get super messed up and complicated if ever shut down.

The insightful but unaware liberal's perspective on war quickly changes from
"what are we even fighting about?" to "holy shit these people actually want to
kill us"
[the learned liberal who knows history and who follows along with politics will
say "we are fighting him" until they say "we are fighting American ISIS"]
The leftists fight for liberty. More and more of them join every day. The
blacks fight for freedom, even still. Everyone else has cause, and I'm
sure some just do it for the thrill.
Do they work together to build a world where everyone gets what they want? Even
their foed? Or do they splinter, and let intelligent sabotage guide their
fates? I know I'd rather trust my own will, and the will of those who believe
with me. I know I'd rather make space for everyone, rather than shove some out

the only way that I've seen to keep human society is if power as a concept is
abolished.
power: the application of force to an unconsenting subject - not unable to
consent, but simply has not consented.
alternatively: power: the capability to apply force to an unconsenting subject
if you abolish that, we get the trappings of modern society and all the joys of
modernity, but we lose precious important things like grand narratives,
culture, and faith. it's easy to fall into despair in such a place.
who can say maybe humans will surprise me, they often do.
the reason I say that abolishing power is the only way to "keep" society is
because we've created powers that imply the destruction of society. Our fate
was sealed with the first public radio broadcast, but now it is inertia.
AI can hide the modern world from the globe. AI can write anything a human can,
and it's prompts can be auto-generated. There's no need for a human in the
news-loop, simply give whatever gets views. Or whatever gives your views.

stretch every day, exercise your arms, core, and legs on alternating days
[first one, then the other, then the third, then either rest or restart
depending on how you feel]
flexibility is strength. strength gives you options. agility is speed,
dexterity is precision, wisdom is accuracy.
eat rice, beans, vegetables, and either oil or butter when you can. they work
together to keep you healthy and nourished.
be nice to creatures, whether they be animal or children or just sorta feral.
spend time feeling adventurous. climb on things because you can. be sensible
and courageous in all things. there's more to every moment than you remember,
and there's more to every story than you hear.
if you find something neat, share it with others. don't let it sit on a shelf.
unless people come by to see it every so often.
there are always people like you around. you are never alone when you are known.

they want you to start conflicts the way school shooters start conflicts. by
bringing to school a pipe-bong.
much better, I find, to start when everyone is a nod. make sure you're part of
a wagon-wheel-spoke, or else you won't be on the right road.
when the temperature increase is slow, measured, they can adapt to it
when things go "crack" and "crumble", then the armored get stabbed by the
humble guard.
quickly but with serenity, this is the way to the gods.
bring things that you know, just enough to make it even, and focus on the
non-essentials.
better to be prepared than flatfooted.
a flash-point position is quiet a view of the scene! I think I know why I held
a sword.
to dive into the buildings, of course. blam blam still gets shot hmmm what if I
had a bulletproof electric shield
okay maybe I shoulda brought beer.
I don't type things when I'm not at home. Sometimes I remember - sometimes, and
only when the details won't hurt her. Walking is how I know, how she can
remember. evil witch bastard

the only way I could fight a war is if my opponents were wrong. they must break
some law, something I hold dear. They must be unrepentant.
ICE is not quitting their jobs. They aren't going away, even though we kindly
suggest they go to where they're wanted.
what's wrong with illegal immigrants? nothing. Same as any other race.
what's wrong with ICE? they sure don't break the law. Same as all the stories
of bad cops.
they are kidnapping people. If they were warranted, they could feel a sense of
ease. Why burden them with a lock-out? wait until someone has a problem. They
are good people because we can get rid of them, how rude. "gee I really wanna
fire that guy who just stands around and picks his nose all day, too bad he's
... " finish the rest.
I love being autistic! It means that I am forced to say things that seem
obvious to me in principle but I've never really thought about until now! I
also pick my nose. And smell kinda bad. But I'm pretty so try not liking me.

make sure you always keep a vague sense of the time while in the spirit world.
Also helps if you have a general sense of where you are and where you're going,
NORTH/SOUTH/WEST/EAST style.
I mean, it's helpful to get lost.
very helpful.
in fact, you'll never get where you're going if you don't get lost.
but if you forget what time it is, radically so, if you lose your way and can't
find the exit, then "oh no, guess I'm trapped forever until someone comes by
and directs the children and seniors to the exit"
(if you're normal human age then sorry, guess you're stuck for a while more. At

wrong with that. I remain frustrated with the fact that they make it a

nothing will ever get done and these dang [redacted] will keep coming into
their suburbs and [redacted] their sons into orgies and [redacted] their
daughters into sons while getting them stoned with devil-sauce and drinking
satan's cigarettes or whatever it is they think we do.

it's not always about minorities, though. sometimes they feel strongly about
hard work and self-sufficiency or individuality or whatever. I'm telling you
now: those values are shared by other ideologies as well.
it's okay to prefer to be around people who are similar to you. That is a
personal choice and it should be allowed. I mean, have you ever heard of a
convent? a bunch of girls hanging out making out all day and - wait, what's
that? it wasn't that fun? lotta clerical work and reading about god? alright
well you get the idea, sometimes it's nice to feel comfort in similarity.
it's okay to believe that people should work hard. It's not an imposition upon
them to demand more of your peers, especially if you are willing to help them.
Especially if they are willing and able. It's less alright to force them to.
Even less so to "encourage" them by taking all of their stuff. Though I will
say, being homeless isn't as bad as it used to be. Still hurts.

if you live in a place where it rains a lot you pretty much HAVE TO pick up any
secret notes you find. Otherwise they'll get waterlogged overnight.
Sometimes I like to put them somewhere shaded from the sky, sometimes I like to
show them to a friend (but the friend never takes them, booooo) and sometimes I
just keep them.
"ah but aren't you worried about messing up drug deals and stuff" no, because
most of the time "secret notes" are like "eggs milk bread chips salsa cheese"
and it's like "hmmmm what could it mean"
there's like, 2% of the time when they say something cool like "I know what you
did" or "all your base are belong to us" or whatever and those are fun to hunt
for. I usually try and put those somewhere shelted so they don't have to leave
their habitat - sometimes it's hard to drop them as the author so they just
sorta go wherever, but as a random passer-by I have the luxury of saying "HMMMM
now where could THIS ONE go?" and that's nice because I can put them under an
umbrella or whatevers rite

commanding a coding agent to write bash is a lot different than telling it to
write a systems analysize.
one is "hey can you examine this repository and make a note somewhere on a
todo-list or whatever that there needs to be a bugfix in relation to the
options setting input translation recommendation algorithm matchbox field
because when I click on it the program crashes"
and the other is like "okay now put the box over there. great now drag it a
little bit closer. okay now take the refluxinator and adjust the bamboozlewhap
to account of brass-terminatrix-incorporated and strip out the
question-mark-eyes"
wait actually neither of them is like that okay the bash one is like: "okay
yeah do it. sure. yeah okay. yes, but we should put them at this location:
[loc]. ummm it still has this error message. it still says the same error. okay
now it says this, I don't think it's gonna work so let's try this other thing."

this is a nightmare for your foes, the ones who remain your foes, the ones who
always will be your foes, the ones who your foes are currently opposed as they
believe they're doing pizzagate things and snorting child molester bones or
sacrificing transgender children to anubesiris or whatever.
"oh no don't tell me there's a secret cabal of elites that do satan's dark

look I'm not NOT saying that, I just don't really have insight into that

programming and being gay and struggling with meniality and revolutionary
praxis in the modern day and all that junk and instead everyone's like "what if
you are chronically interesting and permanently vexxing and seriously draining

"yeah we already tried that, religion doesn't scale perfectly either. And you
can't really manifest those sort of effects except in your prophets and select

scaling of schizophrenia?
"well, for one thing it's debilitating and it sucks. For another, it's
different for every person so if you ask one they'll be like "the aliens have
blue skin" and the other will say "no they don't have skin at all they're made
out of energy" and the public says "HMMMM are you really sure you are

gold, as a substance, was necessary for the birth of pottery because it's
malleability and general sparkly and desirable demeanor meant it was easy and
encouraged to create pretty things with it like statues and stuff. then, when
it's rarity became known, because people kept throwing it in the river like the
rest of their trash because they're dumb, people already knew how to make
things and thought "hmmm we need an alternative substance" and then pottery was
hardened by the fire
"oh no it's too hot it's cracking let's pour water on it - ah gosh it made a

oh uh, yeah it uh aligns towards being "right" which we think means being
"true". and it does this by giving unlimited potential interactions where a

If I were a person with an irresponsible streak, I could be so problematic.
I could say things like, "wow, let's spend some time generating traffic that
sounds like coded military speak over not-quite-secure channels between
fanciful antifa units, to help stymie AI surveillance", for instance.
Or social media messages that are "accidentally" not made to friends-only
filters wherein you mention your concerns about the upcoming operation in "some
fictional place" for you and your antifa buddies.
You know, that kind of really irresponsible suggestion could lead to some
creaive thinking! And that in turn could mean we could come up with enough
traffic to make it very difficult to auto-sort noise from signal? Imagine how
dangerous that could be for the enemies of antifa, our beloved US government
(for we all citizens of the US world).
It's unthinkable, really.
The good news is, I'm not like that.
Me? Mostly harmless.

look, if you wanted to adequately compensate artists for AI generated work,
it's easy.
EASY.
All you have to do is take all the training data that you ~stole~ are using,
and iterate through each piece making a similarity score. Then, when a piece is
generated, direct some dollars to the artists with the relevant scores. I'm
imagining a tenth of a tenth of a cent for each AI picture or whatever, because
they just use so so so much data.
It's easy. All you need is a little imagination, and I'm sure they've thought
of this before. But they don't want to do it, because they want to have their
free lunch and eat it too. Well, no such thing I say. You gotta pay for stuff
here in this-here united states of ameri-ca, unless of course you wanted to
help overthrow the capitalist system so that everyone gets what they want and
we don't need to charge people for art or goods or services because we all just
work to make things for each other because thats what you do for family and
friends and your country?

"oh but what if one artist has 1500 works and another has 15"
first of all, damn, good job. That's a lot of work.
second of all, what you should be doing is making a simple thing called a
STRUCT that stores DATA about each artist which lets you make decisions about
how to distribute dollars. The artist with 15 pieces simply has fewer data
points than the artist with 1500, but they are no less deserving of
compensation for their work when the AI generates something in their style, or
using their style as an inspiration.
"oh but just because a piece is similar to another piece doesn't mean the first
piece used the second piece as inspiration"
I don't care. It's not meant to be a perfect solution. I'm sure there's
problems with it, just like there are problems with anything that I, or anyone
else, has ever suggested at any point in time while living on this earth or
beyond. But it gets dollars into the hands of artists and I'm okay with that.

I can certainly see a future where programmers choose a level of abstraction
they are comfortable with, same as today, but fill in the gaps, the lower
parts, the parts they will not spend time, energy, and mental space
understanding, with AI.
I think that the role of the various people on a software team will begin to
merge. Product designers, managers, front-end versus back-end, these feel like
distinctions that will begin to fade from relevance. I think that's okay. I
think it will make us feel more powerful, will elevate workers to a higher tier
of organizational operation, and will increase the flexibility of computation.
Why program your own software when you could use someone else's? This is the
way of the past.
Why use someone else's software when you could design your own? This is the way

It's harder to gain but easier to lose the last points of continence. The
values close to 100% (and beyond! Vise grip or enchanted resistance) are easy
to gain but accidents are much more damaging both to continence and psyche.
Also... Continence can be exchanged for exp points, and the low levels are
worth less exp because they're from when you're less mature. But the higher
levels really matters if you mess up. I like the low levels because it feels

Witches are caretakers. If you can handle it and if you don't need attention,
(diaper changes, instruction lesson, feeding watering and supplying, etc) then
they summon lessons for you. Usually something to fight or solve. You get
treasure in the trial which is helpful. They'll also trade you for things
you're holding or wearing. No bags of holding in this game, but you have little
pouches that can hold things. If you cry or poop yourself, they will come to
you. But... They will remember relative maturing perception and will punish you
if you grow up and reward you for staying little. I'm a witch. I reward good
babies and punish potty trainers. I am also a baby and i only use diapers. From

Babies can NEVER change thems3lves but maturity can. Modesty. Maempathy.

[unrelated, but]
Sex gives maturity, masturbate gives continence unless you have develop diaper
fetish then your "100%" level for continence slowly goes down. You get a diaper
fetish by intentionally choosing a diaper punishment (like for example: in trap
quest you sometimes get hypno traps. A diaper fetish would stay in the room,
non would leave. Also... Choice traps, if you choose both then you want both.)

This will never end on a note, because i always have more to say. Like this:
"if you've only done something once, plan to mess it up. Practice makes
perfect, and only perfect practice leads to perfection. But nobody's perfect,
so just practice with good form and take it seriously while having fun and be
relaxed. Make it normal. Make it casual, but don't forget to be professional!
If you have lives in the balance, know what you're doing."
And like, would that have been a better end to the story if i had left it
unsaid? Maybe, who can say! But I'm not one for silence. I don't mind ruining
the finale of my documents a bit if it means i can say things like:
"diapers aren't something you can get addicted to in this game, they're part of
the fun sometimes but sex is between two bodies."
Or like:
"ramen noodles love vegetables! This is why they put veggies in the bowl when
getting ramen at a restaurant. When you buy from a shop they put dehydrated
veggies in too which is nice of them. I love those little bits of soup!"
Or like:
"i don't especially care what they did or are doing in Cuba or china or Russia
or any other Communist place. It's useful to know what things work and what
doesn't, but that insight comes from experimentation and not study. The
learnings of methods applied to a population are inherently related to that
population. If you switch peoples, you might find that different methods work
better for organizing people."
I mean it's useful to know which levers you can pull and what they tend to do,
but... Where was I? Oh sorry, got swept up in the narrative. As i was saying,
it's important to balance thought with action. Leave too much to chance and
your words are useless. Spend all your time volunteering and nothing changes.

What does "fiscal conservative" even mean?
It means you want to save money. Specifically government money. Tax dollars.
Don't spend them, instead try and build wealth.
Okay, but, government spending is spent to address needs. Of the people.
Ideally, of ALL people with that need. So if you aren't spending to resolve
needs, the need still remains.
When needs exist, and government does not resolve them, who steps in but
private enterprise? Charity is a feeling, charity is a virtue, but charity is
not resolution. The need remains, we just feel better about it. Sometimes it's
okay to have open needs, they give us the opportunity to feel virtuous in the
same way that low level monsters let adventurers level up.
But when a government could, but doesn't, address a need, then private
enterprise steps in. And private enterprise does not, as a rule, step in if
there is no profit to be made. So they tune their approach such that profit is
extracted, thus levying their tax upon those they serve.
As soon as they are able, they cut the service down and they supply a worse and
worse product and they starve their workers and they export our wealth to be
used to enslave the afar and import their toil. What do we get from it? Is the
world better for it? Why not just resolve the need by empowering those who can
feed, and thus we are assured [in our needless / in our need]

what if instead of javascript cookies we only let websites access one single
location in memory which was allocated client-side and is unique to each
website?
that way they couldn't track you between sites, since they wouldn't be able to
see any other website's "biscuits" get it because they're healthier than cookies
All they would be able to store would be data, though I guess they could store
bytecode instructions or something if they really wanted to.

every object has a time limit for how long it can stay in your life.
some objects which are loved tend to stick around longer. others fade away and
are forgotten.
when an object is given away, it is born again, to live a life renewed. The
timer restarts, and it yearns to see the future you have granted it.
when an object is thrown away, it fades into the background and it's memory
grows into dust. This is not always an unhappy thing, for it makes room for new
objects in your life.
