 part of being a good leader is being able to listen to criticism and adjust.
 it's just... part of navigating your "idea-space-environment". Like... what's
 the best tactical decision here? are we going in the right way? where is the
 objective? whose lives will have to perish?
 
 good news is that you can do that every-day, whenever you play strategic video
 games. It's just practice of course, but the game mechanics that have been
 made available to you are the tools you can use to undertake this particular
 sport. The sport of leadership, a game or mo-del.
 
 as long as the mechanics line up to what the real world conditions are like -
 NO. That's not true! you can learn meta-insights that are useful too. By
 minimizing the processing to only the levers that you pull to get through the
 job, you remove a lot of other informational calculatory methods of doing
 things too.

have you ever considered that the structure of a "thought" is the context of the rest of your waveform as it processes through a particular part of space? like a wave, where each point of processing is... a neuron. Each one receiving a transmission, and passing it along where the electrical signal goes. We are electric beings. We choose where to think and do. But our pattern of understanding (the "frame" of the "frame_rate" of our perception of reality) is constructed from the choices we make on a miniature level, as we pick where to send each part of our race. (note "race" here means the act of processing as fast as possible, which is not always userful for a processor/CPU architecture. Think of it like a game, where each decision is based on your instincts and your tactics. Which is why it's important to know how to lead.

these mechanics are tuned by the game designer such that they most closely mimick reality. Which is why we usually do *simulators* which *simulate* the experience of fighting through a war or battle. Like, Warthunder or Star Wars Battlefront II but the insights that are produced are... not perfect. For instance there are endless different forms of calculation that would have to be done. Hence why the droid starships are a massive computing center surrounded by an endless array of hangars for starships. Just... get them into battle and process their movements as fast as possible. With minimal latency. If idle, work on long-term strategic simulations for the fleet. end transmission.

 camouflage in an urban environment is not camo. rather, regular clothes of
 black or white.
 
 don't wear sports glasses, you look like a dummy.
 
 revolution is when they murder everyone but your friends. this is what
 happens, ya dingus not ideal. "okay who are the bad guys here? okay let's go
 shoot them to death with our bullets and guns."
 
 violence as a first aspect, cause as a third spark. "I have a strange urge to
 play video games?"

 I don't understand why modern software isn't error correcting. We shouldn't
 have any bugs in this day and age.
 
 For example, if you're missing a dependency then why doesn't your program try
 to, I dunno, download that dependency to the program's installation directory
 and use it there? Seriously there are very few problems that are unsolvable!

 War is hell - each casualty bids farewell to a wholely unique treasure from
 this world - war is hell - there is nothing that cannot be resolved with
 words. And yet we fight, and yet we pillage. War is hell, and those who demand
 it must do so only to resist evil, elemental evil, the kind that wars on the
 innocent and pillages the bounteous. War is hell. Fucking kill the ones who
 make it.

 for the record, I would never kill myself. even if I were in a bunker hiding
 from warcrimes, I'd wait to be Nuremberged.
 
 frankly tho that's highly unlikely. Let's just see what the future will bring.

 "trick or treat" doesn't mean "give me a trick or a treat"
 
 that's awfully presumptuous and demanding.
 
 No, it means "give me a treat or I'll trick you" meaning "give me my candy tax
 or I'll fuck up your lawn"

dated "almost christmas, december twenty something, in history AD." live is just the universe interpreting random data. life is a billion to one. what has been found here is impossible to descrive, so unlikely is it when sompared to the background. space is empty save for you. act as such. a human preserves and infant over an elder is purely due to the child's potential. so too does life have potential. do not waste it on folly dashes if you were given a random waveform, how long before you begin noticing irregularities in it's form? maybe... a billion or two years? espcially if like, everyone's lkooking. [non-alien-voice]: what if we made an app that shared everyone's streaming feed? except, like, twitching to on-screen events like picking up coins in mario ... anyway as I was saying, aliens showed up around the 1980s and people expect they were visiting in response to nuclear invasion events (sometimes even on their own people!) like, c'mon there's not enough mass there for that kind of detonition. it's gotta be an anomaly. ... this changes everything.
