Trump can't do anything. He's been stripped of power by the International Common Law Court of Justice, of which trumps (pun intended) both cannon and legal law.

Proof is here: https://murderbydecree.com/2025/10/06/__trashed/

Some other notable peeps are Rutte, Prevost (Pope Leo XIV), and the Windors. Common Law applies to everyone, including these punks who think they're above the law.

This I don't do. If anything, I'd rather have all the content in one purchase, DLC included, before doing so.

There's a lot I could do. For starters, SteamRIP (steam games), My Abandonware (abandonware), Myrient (ROMs), CDRomance (ROMs), NoPayStation (Playstation 3 for my usage), G-MEH (audio editors), and AudioZ (audio editors) come to mind.

Another X Server in Pheonix in Zig? I'll keep an eye out for this one.

She's using a logical fallacy, in this case, vested interest.

Here's how it works, logically speaking, from Dr. Bo Bennet:

Person 1 is claiming Y.

Person 1 has a vested interest in Y being true.

Therefore, Y is false.

Not OP, but my question is when moving out altogether would be prevented. I know my family and I were cobsidering moving out by 2030.

I'd recommending moving somewhere that isn't 200 miles from any border, so ICE won't spy on you. They'll do this for everyone, including citizens, if they're 200 miles from the border on all sides.

That seems to be a bit misinformed. There are some pieces of software that work on Linux, but just stick with FOSS, even if you download it yourself off of the internet (from the official sites too).

I never was like that in my life, so it doesn't count for me.

My answer is for those who aren't like this. I've met people in this community, and apart from a few bad apples based upon what I do, I hadn't had any issues with them. Now, it's said that people will hang out with those because of a shared interest, and while I had spoken to LGBTQ+ peeps, I never did anything under this banner.

 

Post in question: https://lemmy.today/post/44141339/21108010

What got removed is in the picture, because I did numerology on Vince Zampalla's passing. Long story short, I didn't believe the narrative for a hot second, and instead, he was hexed and killed by a car crash as part of this hex.

How is it conspiracy nonsense when you do the numerology on a situation like this, especially with a well-known game developer. I think the reason was pretty simple, as he was about to call something out, so he was hexed with idiocy at 55, and got whacked from the car crash (a Ferrari no less).

Now, the silver lining for those who will say IDI is that this was in a gaming community, and I saw it. I did the numerology, and knew not to believe the official story. Ochkam's Razor doesn't work on me, because it's a weapon.

 

For those who want to use Obsidian in a local-first writing environment, specifically for writing fiction, here's some steps you can take to do just that:

  1. Download Obsidian

  2. Open Obsidian for the first time

  3. Select "Create" on the first menu that pops up (this is done during first-time setup)

  4. Name your vault under "Vault name"

  • I have it set as "Novel Work"
  1. Pick a location where you'll place this Obsidian vault
  • I have a dedicated place for Obsidian vaults, of which I share with Neigsendoig (my producer)
  1. Click "Create"

  2. Do everything to make it local-first

  • Turn off the "Sync" plugin, as that's unnecessary
  1. Install a theme that allows for pure left-to-right reading (if a language uses that system, like English)
  • Neigsendoig and I like to use the Zen theme, which is really nice for our needs
  1. Enable the Community plugins, and install the following:
  • Dictionary
  • File Info Panel
  • Harper (spell checker that's like LanguageTool, but local-only)
  • Highlightr
  • Longform (this is how you can write novels, plus you have word count goals if ever you wanted to utilize them)
  • Quiet Outline
  • Style Settings (This is required for changing up the Zen theme)
  1. Create the following folder-bases structure (this is crucial for finding things)
  • Exercises
    • This is where I put my FediWriMo project, Foxing Society
  • Fanfics
    • If you write fanfiction, I'd recommend placing it in a separate folder so you can easily access it away from your main stuff
  • Ghost Writing
    • This is desired if you have a ghost writing career, and you want to keep things different
      • That depends on what type of work, so make folders according to that
  • Ideas
    • This is where you store your ideas
  • On Hold
    • This is for projects where you just can't work on them for the time being
  • Original Projects
    • This is for stuff you work on outside of a WriMo deal, the one where you don't need to write something with 50k words in 30 days
  • z_Dictionary
    • This is where you store a local dictionary, though I don't have that, as I use Wordbook both as a dictionary and thesaurus

Now, to make a Longform project:

  1. Choose the folder you want to do something in

  2. Right click from inside the folder

  3. Select "Create Longform Project"

  4. Choose either a Multi-scene project (ordered notes combined together in the manuscript, with an index and YAML frontmatter)

  • An enclosing folder will be created for the project and scenes thereof, though it can be renamed, both folder and/or index file

  • Else, you can choose a Single-scene projct, which entails a short story or essay, including its YAML frontmatter used by Longform to track the project locally

  1. Name the project

  2. Select "Create" once it's named

  3. Once inside the project, you should have the icon with an open book selected. This is your Longform sidebar

  4. Write the title of a scene

  • I used N - "Chapter title", where N is the number of a chapter, and "Chapter title" is the title of the chapter
    • Example from Foxing Society: 1 - Turning the Tides on Corruption
  1. You can just write, like that, once this is done

In the settings, under Settings > Community Plugins > Longform > Word Counts & Sessions, you can turn on "Show word counts in status bar", which shows the note's project, "Start new writing sessions each day", which allows you to automatically start a new writing session, "Notify on goal reached", which is self-explanatory, and "Count deletions against goal", wherein deleting words counts as negative words written.

Your "Session word count goal" option is where you input the amount of words you want to write in a given session. It can be 1,667 per day, or more (for a FediWriMo exercise).

If you have any questions, feel free to DM me privately, or respond here, and I can see what I can do to answer in a timely manner (If I see it, that is).

This country doesn't work anymore. That's all.

No arguments. No reasons. Just better.

This applies to those in other countries, but especially America, since we're in one of the worst times imaginable right now, and it's getting worse before it gets better.

Exactly as described. I decided upon this particular passage from Chapter 7:

"As Katsumi and his horse arrived, he got off the horse, and hitched it to a specialized wagon. This wagon had a house hitch made by the fox folk, which was designed for transporting houses. These were all tiny houses, for which was the homesteading fox's house type of choice. Once everything was hitched together, and Katsumi placed everything he needed to keep his wealth in the wagon, he climbed onto his horse again and rode off. He then rode to meet up with Katso-kun and Misagi at the place of what was now their old homestead. Once everyone had everything they needed together, the three of them embarked on a journey only Methuselah could have even called for, knowing the prophecy that a leigon would be circling around them. Once that legion circled around, this was the Abomination of Ruin, of which they knew was coming. They prepared for this the night prior, so being able to do something like this on short notice was a small feat to these fox folk, but numerous humans would not understand as to why.

During the day, the three of them kept riding on their horses, single-file, with Katsumi at the front. Katso-kun and Misagi knew by now that Katsumi was a Silent Prophet, and that he seemingly knew the way. They did not realize, however, that Katsumi had to leave it to the Creator, and likely Methuselah, to lead the way. Katsumi would only go where he was called, and so would Misagi and Katso-kun. Within a short time frame, the three of them found a spot to stop for the night as the sun had set. A day always ended at sunset for the fox folk who followed a lunisolar calendar, of which Katsumi would always follow. Misagi and Katso-kun ended up following Katsumi's lead, as this was something they had missed when reading the set-apart texts for the fox folk. This was hard to do unless one knew who to go to for a teacher. Katsumi, to Katso-kun and Misagi, was that teacher they probably were incognizant of, whom they so desperately needed all those years ago. Katsumi, on the other hand, did not understand that yet, but he was starting to get the gist of it.

As the three of them rested for the night, Katsumi looked up at the moon to see what it was doing. Thankfully, it was waning, but not enough for it to be a waning half moon yet, which would be the twenty-second of the month using this calendar. Katsumi looked at Misagi and Katso-kun, and told them, "The moon is in a waning phase, though it is not at a half moon yet. We are not too close to the twenty-second day of the month on our holy calendar yet, but we are getting there." Katsumi checked his calendar, which he had handy, to ensure he had it correct. After taking a look, it was not too close to the twenty-second, but not too far either."

Hope this helps.

 

The milestone had been marked. 50,174 is the official word count for my novel, and all I did was write what turned out to be an epilogue, since I wanted a plot twist by the end of the final chapter (Chapter 13 for me here).

 

I wanted to get some experiences from both sides, though I'll give my experience as a pantser.

I've always been a spontaneous kinda guy, though my producer tends to be very meticulous in his planning (he uses numerology to do plan releases of his major works). Despite our spontaneity, I tend to be more of a guy who just pulls a lot of shenanigans off in the first place. For me, personally speaking, it makes sesne for me to have something in my head and go off of that.

Pantsing tends to help me with a ton, and I mean a ton of plot twists that could help, and tiny plot armor if and/or when needed. For example, towards the end of my work, my protagonist is finally able to do what he was meant to do (which I won't spoil here). I will say, however, that he was meant to do this, but he was in an area he couldn't due to how persecuted he was to begin with. I can say similar with how Neigsendoig (my producer) writes, considering the fact that we tend to just have ideas that we want to make into reality (watch The Survival Podcast Ep. 3688 if you want to know where I got that from).

Regardless, that's my quick notes on my pantsing experience. What do y'all tend to do when writing? Pants or Plot? No competition is intended, just me wanting to know both sides of it out of curiosity.

I don't really tend to use these blocklists often, but when speed is needed, this is what I'll use. For now, I'm utilizing the HaGeZi Multi pro blocklist, which is recommended for most users. It's the most balanced blocklist offered by HaGeZi, and from my experience, the speeds are exceptional.

What has been your experience with ButcherBox meat?

For me, personally, I absolutely love the grass-fed beef options (specifically, the ribeyes and strip loin for me, since they're the fattiest of them all), and that's all I've had. There are some other options, including pork, though I don't eat that for cannon law reasons.

I was just curious otherwise.

 

Exactly as the title asks. I'll start, though. The link I placed in the URL section should potentially help with explaining it better than I can. For those unaware

If for some reason you don't get that, I can provide it here: https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=YqBX87fq_RU

For the above, this is a video by CoculesNation, of which I believe I've gone ahead and edited (I forgot if I did that one or not).

The hidden gem FPS I'd recommend big time is the AFPS known as Xonotic. If you're part of the Linux gaming community, you've likely heard about it. For those completely out of the loop, I'll catch you up to speed here.

Xonotic is a Free Software (as in FSF approved) AFPS (Arena FPS) made in the Doom 1 derivative engine called DarkPlaces. It's the same engine used in Nexuiz Classic (which Xonotic is a fork of), and Rexuiz (a continuation of Nexuiz Classic, also a form of Rexuiz).

The licenses for these games are GPL-2.0 or later, per the compatibility with the id Tech 1 engine... also GPL-2.0+ licensed.

In terms of gameplay here, think Quake-style movement with Unreal Tournament customization. The movement is extremely fast Quake-style stuff with even CPMA (air turning), weapon combos that are satisfying, and for some reason, even designed with defrag in mind (as there's an active community of pro defrag players in Xonotic). I focus on instagib, though, as that's my current focus.

If y'all have any other ideas, feel free to express them here. I'd be happy to look into them as well, and see if they're worth playing for either myself or Neigsendoig.

 

For those who want some avant-garde music in this game's writing style, I can recommend the guy I edited for, as he produces bossa nova and some other genres (mostly bossa nova). Here, he released this album of music for a fake fangame concept, which includes mostly bossa nova pieces he wrote, produced, mixed and mastered, an avant-garde waltz in 6/8 time, including a vocal version he produced and performed himself, and even a technical groove metal composition, all using instruments from a particular SF2 bank licensed under CC BY.

Also, there's a Wavlake version of it, which is in the URL above if you wanted to look at the non-YouTube release of this album.

And yes, I decided to place in what was used in the Wavlake release of Bossa Touhou, which is a compilation or remakes from both his freshman EP and sophomore album. It's AI generated, using a Stable Diffusion 1.5 model, and some LoRA I think (I don't recall what he used).
