Gaming notes on Xonotic + some good hashtag comments...
#Xonotic = like Quake / Half-Life / Doom etc FPS multi-player on everything Linux included
Some music while you read called "Jumping In Space" by Xonotic

My notes and thoughts below below after having not played for years:
- Gaming is not so much a Community right? Has it changed from individuals thinking there are in but not really or only for getting fragged on?
- Regardless of that just more of a loose time killer? (your thoughts welcome and all this is neutral not antagonising at all - just my 'stage' 'phase' in life)
- I though "eSport" was a interesting term
Well I have to admit I'm against gaming in general and now suddenly feeling like maybe I could play this "1" game but glad I stopped playing and this probably for nostalgia / keeping the spirit alive for which I only probably contributed dead bodies (my own, actually in FreezeTag I did some rescues)
And since chess is literally the only 1 game right now and I'm work-for-fun based... I'm 2nd-guessing my own reasons why (nostalgia or looking for conversation or somewhere to build is probably the main reason which games maybe don't tend to do unless you good in editing sprites / making maps / being pro)
--------------------------
Some other posts that I felt we good for various reasons
---------------------------
- 'Woman' female playing (never saw that before).... and then on top TWO kids in same room playing... woa times have changed...
https://fosstodon.org/@codeHaiku/108065121176594681
- Xonotic is a fork from Nexuiz
- ceruds @ceruds seems a good bet because
---- > they have a mastodon account (so not emails / gmails) and probably more sane as a person / for freedom / free software
- Game is Free Software itself which is a better start than Quake / Half-Life maybe was though needed and great people probably there at the time and even maybe didn't sell out too hard or much later as it does need money at least back then
@Mehrad mentions to @opensuse -> "Kinda wish you were selecting an #OpenSource project like #Xonotic instead of Urban Terror which is proprietary freeware.
https://fosstodon.org/@Mehrad/106433795817057792
- If you like #UnrealTournament but also prefer #FreeSoftware you might want to give #xonotic a try. https://xonotic.org/
says: @uniq says:
- EU server? @devurandom@cybre.space says
gonna set up a #xonotic server for my friends. currently asking linode to migrate it from the u.s. to europe for lower ping
https://cybre.space/@devurandom/106127705382526878
- Map screenshots, not even sure it's real but looks wild if it's not just a picture edit
https://shitposter.club/objects/8850381b-5187-4a4d-a6d4-c485af0849bd
- eKreative server ---> @unfa or https://mastodon.social/@unfa
- Xonotic on #Linux - open source game with Chris Were (who I recommend for general video and 'good egg' type banter
https://share.tube/videos/watch/289871b4-dd3f-43a5-abc4-59d5e87fda27
- Dodger, the number 1 player?... of the whole game... I was wondering who is the best / proven
" I had no chance, he read me like an open book "
- Playing too many hours s hard (which is why I play chess, in and out 10mins max many times a day is ok)... anything other than that and I predict losing track of time / knowing your place / containment
https://pleroma.site/objects/dcd6882b-a284-4882-8540-1f3ccd4ac1c5
- Competition is eventually bad + PEOPLE FEEL SHIT (what do you say?)
https://pleroma.site/objects/9742c084-5a03-49b2-b033-46e09d38c2a6
- I think it's a waste of Gigabytes to put big videos and to leave it at medium and small UNTIL SOMEONE ASKS... just terrible consumption for big high res for bunch of kittens running around for hours while planet suffers almost for that 1 vid !
- #opensource #freesoftware #gaming <--- does have good ring to it but maybe just feels like community again (me tricking myself / tapping into my 'free life' feelings?)
- Mastodon bot for CTF matches... that would be crazy and addictive - especially if people could get to like each other - good idea in many ways
@jasper
- Example of someone with similar freedom loving aspects

- Xonotic supports multiplayer across the internet or locally with your friends.

This is a geofence warrant. In this example, the FBI asked Google for the identifying information of all Android users who might have attended one particular Black Lives Matter protest in Seattle. Google coughed it up.

@kat @jasper
Hi, if you need help (especially with people like in the video who can talk amazing) then let me know who I can help and list off what kinds of things you're into / ideas / answers you're looking for!
On top of that I'm flippin fast... so have an edge on most people (although they can msg the doing is sometimes a problem with whole life around kids etc) ...
So on top I have time for
-Transcript
-Audio cutting / arranging (basic)
-Video cutting (basic)
-Many average things all-in-one which is hard for those 'busy' and I win based on not being time-pushed and executing mini-projects 1 at a time.
So generally I'm VERY responsive person (turn around is instant - that is golden).
You can TEST me out / give me something small to experience it!)
Expect initial 'over-communication' or audio chat to get things clear and then after that nothing but work / end result!
@phooky @grimmware
So no info attached...
Maybe mention what this is
"Computational Alchemy" (I can see from picture) at emfcamp (from your text)... but nothing more and rather see where you already have links / are looking...
Otherwise thanks anyway... no need for me to try too hard either I have plenty to look at without putting this down and I'm sure it's good like you said :)
@freemo
Sarcasm ?
Or mostly just 5L's more than actually remembering the *names*
@PawelK
Yeah for government I think you spelled it out "For The way" in the following:
no philosophy, logics, ethics, rhetoric
+ no cognitivics(?) <--cognition I assume for my reply; so no perception and learning and reasoning...
+ and negative social engineering (not sure what socio-cybernetics is)
I'd like to see more social engineering aka community structure-base / united individuality / sovereign right promoted higher than almost anything if it's in good faith
How to copy mouse-over / tooltip text that someone added to Mastodon picture description ?
Right click picture / image
select View Imagine info
see there in the notes the text
Example: Try mouse-over on this post's image:
https://todon.nl/@prolrage/108419943242331107
You should the mouse-over / tooltip text in this picture and steps above can copy the text description (useful not to type it all out when someone already has!)
Some point is made, then widely made.
Some people do it in a toxic way, possibly relating to their internal emotional economy, and are annoying online.
Then those are magnified and given a name like SJW/"woke" or whatever name is most sticky, and it is pretended their existence means the point made is invalid.
@celesteh
Message Repetition / in need of revision...
Hi - just some corrections or what I feel is either
a) a non-issue (what shouldn't be attributed to or something being bad)
or b) a repetition
specifically I mean
#2 & #4 are identical.
#5 & #7 are similar / identical
#8 and #10 are identical
#3 = not so valid or worth noting if YOUREMAILCOMPANY OR EMAIL has many users (which is perhaps idea), then you can't say it's bad or expect your misspelling to go to someone else if you did that,.. and of course many will eventually check or contact the person again. So for #3 I think you could save writing that point to promote / make visible the rest
#5 I'm not sure that is true or even a problem, since people are 'problem' if you're looking at it like that... so people say "hey you're that Michael" and you email back no sorry I'm not that famous Michael... otherwise people aren't really going to email you like that and yeah do choose your name wisely so people don't email think you're someone else (that's even if people use email as social media is obviously now prevalent).
Quitting gmail
@celesteh I got my partner and self away from Google ~8 years ago. We've been using mailbox.org. They've been solid with a decent privacy policy
Quitting gmail
@celesteh I just did this for Yahoo -> Gmail. Dammit. Now I gotta do it again.
Not entirely unrelated, I have nearly finished Chrome -> Firefox. It's taking about six months, but it's nearly complete.
@rakyah
Hi if you're interested in talking about these kinds of topics (like if landlord is a job or a good thing) let me know
Maasai from #Tanzania are facing eviction from their ancestral land in Ngorongoro area, Loliondo for expensive tourists resort to be constructed by UAE for trophy hunting.
Petrol is Epitome of the problem... with everything needing petroleum / petrolatum...
Petrol is Epitome of the problem...
The shortcomings people will see if they haven't already by the price increases and everything needing petroleum / petrolatum.
At the end (and similar to the beginning) you / people will realise it wasn't theirs and giving the average people access to normalise their life and become consumers for life would mean using it for a lot of insignificant 'work'*... <-- (*and the politics of who judges and makes jobs available for those types of work and not the other types.)
... and then people realise this is the crucial point (or leverage) in which their life almost can't exist without petrol.
We all have been over-burning for a while for the most mundane tasks or for what communally should be done and shared (with petrol or totally without) in order to preserve and even increase taking care of people (not profit).
The problem with petrol is as in the beginning as it is in the end,.
Towards the Mad Max style because the system's patterns itself.
Don't forget the tax that goes to those that actually oppress you.
Filling gas / petrol... arguably gets you oppression.
Oppression means for you as governments get richer / less satisfied or for those countries it was 'taken' / stolen from / sold by.
Maybe good to do a little #Introduction also
Never done that before
Well uh.. meow! I am stux, I’m from the #Netherlands where I live with my girlfriend and our two little cats called #George & Washington or #Washy for short! We’ve adopted them from the streets and they’re named by people here on the #Fediverse
Like my gf, I just became 29 years old and I have a huge love for #tech, #space, #science and more nerd related stuff 😇 Over two years ago I started mstdn.social as a replacement for my former mainstream social media since it became hell. Since than I have expanded mstdn.social with other services like Misskey, Pixelfed, PeerTube, Matrix and so much more!
Since about a year now I quit my (terrible) job at a telecom company where I worked in customer support, I couldn’t stand the yelling anymore.. so I started my own business! It’s called Stuxhost.com♥️ @Stuxhost
My goal in life is to change the world, like many others I guess🫣
It's about changing / opening our minds...
I give people time and I thnk that's the difference to others online who really don't have or give time and give up on people really easy... (don't mean to be competitive, no put-downs, just I more dedicate time to others and weave us together).
So you don't even have to read any of this because EVERYTHING needs time + communication and without that a lot is broken and even less human even if it's for good...
Just follow and put notifications on to TEST MY FEED.... the rest below is just over-info for most poeple.
Open Learning School or Freedom University...
------------------------------------
A lot you might be at length and depth, but if you're easy about it, you can take the best and even take me along to understand life with others!
To learn and do everything practically! (this is a practical living (and gets stuff done as much as we can).
Fan of Fediverse!
Quick Look - peace-loving work / services:
█ Mini-Podcast (few mins each, examples below)
█ Picture remixes / video remixes
█ Lessons without being too 'teacher' about it. Teacher has teeth for eliminating doubt.
█ Food for thought as gentle soul also.
█ Unique ideas - often impossible for professionals (they are burdened by financial repsonsibility and therefore associational risk in saying things). I'm more diverse and occasionally direct (with respect, though I don't shy away from reminding people).
█ Not too embarrassing to say "I don't know" but can still chase things.
█ More responsive than casual users usually because people think having 'job' is enough in life. I say it's not! And even faimily is of no use if it's only getting worse (in everything!).
Podcast Examples:
1. Gary Ackerman's thoughts on AI
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/111867522723922385
2. The Little Prince book
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/111845561003150354
3. Fantasy genre from a fan's perspective
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/111845709367492677
I help people create audio / edit educational audio / podcast / music / visual short videos / transcript text
+ I like to add a bit humour while being quite strict in my own politics (opinions) but open / inviting for others to tell me what I should do if they can explain more than just a short comment (I don't mind it's healthy for me at least if you have logic and can stand yourself explaining).
FreeSchool is about Learning towards Freedom (which is about Uniting everyone slowly, even "1 by 1"... Easy with The Fediverse!
Not virtue signalling here only, but practise of EVERYTHING as we go. Judged by getting in contact (many have) and having courage to communicate (or seeking it from others is ok, EVERYONE needs a bit of courage or hand-holding to make big personal changes). Who else is there for example if family doesn't understand?
Learning and watching can be good and staying out of people's way, BUT better is doing something every day and helping each other with some tough decisions / lessons... and then being bold enough to do them. 1... 2... 3 that is all that's needed.
Let my posts do most of the talking.
Put me on notification (click bell that appears after follow ia accepted) and if it's not interesting switch off after and tick me off the list of potential people to follow daily!
Media version of my posts here... open link for later... good for visual scrolling version and judge me on that I don't mind...
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/media
I'm usually impressed with my media gallery as I work on posts a lot usually or hit the "Aha!" moments and capture it (other people may forget it for years, not me!).
Freedom is about *making it work together* better like using #Mastodon on the #Fediverse daily for better platforms with more #bestpractices and 'best' people to help us which I kind of collect here and
when it's #1 comment!
I am measurably better because I reply and stick to everything to the end(!)
No cancelling friendship suddenly without saying why or being moody!
Freedom is to Learn, Respect and Love eventually and ️to Unite!
Practically it's also like Tetris - add yourself to the puzzle and watch it all happen...
█▬▄▀ ╚ ╦ ╝╠╧
talk more on Mastodon and the Fediverse and puzzle it all out using better ways to less use the other bad commercial / extractive people...
L£$$ of the less caring people like the ggl's / ytb / gmail / mainstream communication points etc who are offering lots of space 'free' and it's not free of peace there.
We GIVE to real people (TIME NOT JUST MONEY).
There's no buy-in solution - we have to make it with selotape or whatever we have - it's not shameful to bring whatever you have.
FreeSchool is terminology put together from many good things from past (coined in 1950's/60's. I / we become it eventually through being.
It's a movement for Freedom via Learning it all (learning self included and less active stuff) and doing the learning *together* --> https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeschool.
I encourage you warmly to participate with me as a I have time and then spiral out naturally to others (we are part of humanity and so naturally a sort of evangelism or ecological pyramid of life as we choose to spread lesser suffering while accepting consuming is part of it).
Less-commercial in orientation (in everything) and happy to think / work for free.
Naturally you will hesitate if someone is sure of themself or ok standing on shoulders what we copy do the best from humbly but not too sterile either.
Based on just emotions ruins almost everything, which seems very common - very ungraceful - so don't disconnect... do it gracefully at least!
A "school" of thought is here you can interact / ask and make best together as free/low cost as possible.
Even a bad answer you can take best from (of course I won't know all your situation when I suggest something but I don't need to answer 100% - you also need to help me!).
Leave perfectionism, we are all imperfect humans! Let's do it... Choose something ANYTHING and keep the thoughts rolling together...!
