Imagine you're 80 years old, or even half that. This is your remote.

Take a guess on which power button turns it on, and which power button can leave you into a state where your TV don't work because it turned the cable box off or turned on the cable box and the TV off, etc.

I'm debating on whether I should even have music in the credits of my game, as I can't compose music myself and I need music that is timed with the credits. There are some works out there that get away with just having silent credits, but that usually signifies someone dying at the end or something like that.

@nach Posteo supports anonymous cash via mail payments so I would go with that.

90% of the bloat in Unreal appears to originate from making sure nobody ever has to touch C++. I think John Carmack had a very famous saying about this.

We couldn't believe it at first, but one of the most common numbers guessed about the #IPv6 adoption among logged-in users is 42%. We assume that many users took this number as a joke. But in all seriousness: it is correct! (It is exactly 42.0095476% higher than that of our largest competitor #GitHub 😄)

We boosted the first post with that guess, but feel free to browse all the other awesome project recommendations made in this thread, too!

(Context on the number 42: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phrases_ )

Introducing fUSD: The First Truly Decentralized Stablecoin — Secure, Private, and User-Controlled

Break Free or Stay Tracked? Choosing Between fUSD and USDT.

#Freedomdollar #fUSD #WorldFirstPrivacyStableCoin

@nach I've considered using it, though I haven't used it myself (mostly because I already have a Fedora Mail account, which is free). They seem pretty good, if you don't mind paying, but I wish they supported custom domains.

@djsumdog Have you tried Blender's video editor? For a while, I've heard it was Linux's only good video editor.

They died for “freedom,” and all we got was mass surveillance, packed cages, and the world’s third-biggest army—cosplaying as cops.

🌿 Cancer-Fighting Herb: Dandelion Tea & Coffee 🌿

Did you know that dandelion root has been studied for its potential cancer-fighting properties? Scientists have found that dandelion root may be more effective than chemotherapy at targeting cancer cells while protecting healthy ones.

☕️ How to Make Dandelion Coffee:

1️⃣ Find a 2-year-old dandelion root (about pinky thick).
2️⃣ Wash & chop into 1.5-2 cm pieces.
3️⃣ Roast in a pan or oven until light brown.
4️⃣ Grind in a coffee grinder to make a powder.
5️⃣ Brew just like regular coffee! (It even smells & looks similar ☕️)

💡 Try adding goat’s milk for an extra nutritional boost!

🌟 Benefits of Dandelion Root:

✅ Supports liver detoxification
✅ Boosts immune function
✅ Rich in antioxidants
✅ Helps with digestion & gut health
✅ May slow the growth of cancer cells

Collapsing the USD will screw treasury holders (Japan, China), but at the cost of giving a gift to debtors.

Locking China in the dungeon is obviously a goal of the Anglo-American power, but they also have other goals. They need to screw the boomers out of their paid off mansions too.

There's an argument to be made that central banking is old news now. Every country has one, nobody is really fooled by it anymore (except Africa ☠️), and everyone with 2 brain cells to rub together is running their own grift and hoarding gold.

I don't believe for one second that Trump is acting entirely on his own accord, I think he's executing a plan.

Bitcoin may be a winner here on account of the fact that everyone who holds gold is someone the US wants fucked over, so pumping BTC to fade gold is a possible angle of attack (I have Lowery's "Softwar" in my bookcase).

If I had to guess, I'd say:
1. Demolition of the SPX to fuck the 401Ks
2. Means-testing Medicare (nice house you got there)
3. Smashing the housing market via #2 & tightened borrowing restrictions
4. Brrrrrr (fuck treasury holders), inflation suppressed by ruining the global economy
5. US and allies dump the gold market and agree to use BTC as a reserve instead
6. That's the most horrible thing I've ever heard, what do you call your act?
7. The Aristocrats

"Trapping AI" – New Update! 🌀

Web crawlers play a central role in the escalating race to develop ever-more powerful AI models: they tirelessly scour the web, harvesting vast quantities of content to feed large language models. Babble (https://git.jsbarretto.com/zesterer/babble), originally developed by @jsbarretto, is a tool that lures these crawlers into an endless labyrinth—feeding their insatiable hunger for data with masses of pointless content.

To deliberately drain the resources of exploitative crawlers—and push AI models further toward collapse—we’ve deployed Babble, initially enhancing it through subtle, targeted modifications that align its functionality tightly with our strategic and operational priorities.

Babble dynamically generates an unending stream of deterministic bollocks, trapping crawlers on a single site where they endlessly navigate an ever-growing sea of pages 🌊—each filled with vast amounts of useless text and dozens of links that draw them ever deeper into the tarpit 🔁.

In the coming period, we’ll continue to develop and escalate this tactic—adding new layers of complexity and increasing both the intensity and offensiveness of the approach. At the next stage, we’ll openly share our code—allowing others to deploy, adapt, and build upon it.

See it in action: https://content.asrg.site/

If you're looking for similar tools and frameworks to deploy or explore further, check out our list titled "Sabot in the Age of AI"—a record of strategically offensive methods and purposefully orchestrated tactics for facilitating (algorithmic) sabotage, framework disruption, and intentional poisoning.

Fixed the boss bug. Although I didn't record the bug, the bug was that some bosses would just hang upon death. Turns out they aren't calling the animation method.
