    #devlog #13:
    Giving some love to the docs
    I'm thinking I may create another card template and setup a whole series on it, similar to the pleroma-tan one, but idk, cuter?, it needs something else. #kemoverse

      The KEMOVERSE hyper (@waifu)
      Devlog #12: Few advancements this weekend (the cold is killing me) but there's a basic card creator that I'm working on, although almost in the dark because I really don't want to touch javascript #kemoverse (📎1) RN: Devlog #11: After I forgot to pay for the VPS expenses, my setup broke, so i had to migrate from gitea to forgejo, which took a few days but was not as painful as I expected... At least now we can use ssh (i was using docker in the previous setup for some reason) and I just solved another issue :capybara_sit: So we're a little bit closer now :watamelon_pet: I'm taking some time between programming sessions to also make cards so we don't start the game and just have no cards to play with, so I may make a post asking for recommended characters people would like to have in the game as cards even if they won't be in the sourcecode. RN: Devlog #10: WE'RE 1 ISSUE AWAY FROM VERSION 1.1 :necodance_hd::necodance_hd::necodance_hd::necodance_hd::necodance_hd::necodance_hd::necodance_hd: RN: Made a card for funsies #kemoverse (📎1) RN: Devlog #9: We're almost done with version 1.1!! I'll make a full post with all the info when we complete the admin parts, we also got new bots accounts to help with the development and so we aren't using this random waifumelon account, something a bit more official. On the parallel I'm doing a card maker so people can test how cards look and perhaps letting people add more card templates or use their own. Perhaps I'll start using a tag along with the quotes #kemoverse #kemoversedev (📎3) RN: Devlog #8: I've been kind of busy but this is a marathon, so things go slowly but constantly rather than quickly and then forgetting about it. We've been compiling issues not only for us but also in case someone is interested in helping out. You can check them over here: https://git.waifuism.life/waifu/kemoverse/issues Documenting feels like a chore but it's one that I like doing :hapyday: RN: I'm compiling a list of characters we could add to the game (Free and open source) If you know any other mascots we could add, fell free to comment it or if you want to help with the art we could use an artist or two. Currently list looks like this: Humanoids: - [Ai-chan](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Ai-chan) (Misskey) - [Pleroma-tan](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Pleroma-tan)(Pleroma) - [Libbie](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Libbie_the_Cyber_Oryx) (Public domain) - [Kiki](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Kiki_the_Cyber_Squirrel) (Krita) - [Sara The Wizard](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Sara_the_Wizard) (Opengameart.org) - [Wikipe-tan](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikipe-tan) (Wikipedia) - [Anubis](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Anubis_(software)_mascots) (Anubis) - [Eileen](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Ren%E2%80%99Py_Logo_6-13-6_200x307px.png) (Ren'Py) - [Commons-tan](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Commons-tan) (Wikimedia commons) - [Wikiquote-tan](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikiquote-tan) (Wikiquote) - [Xenia](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Xenia_(mascot)) (Linux(?))

We're building the basics of the dueling system to be able to use your rolled characters and also thinking of a popularity system. Here is a mock up of the card template we're setting up. It's made using AI (ew) because i was lazy but I'm thinking of making something else using vectors. (📎1) RN: Devlog #6 (📎1) RN: Devlog #5 Lots of refactoring and bugfixes. We're preparing a dueling system, and thinking of setting up a testing account for the develop branch. Also Libbie is now the official mascot. She finally landed a job. (📎1) RN: Devlog #4 Not many changes, but now the code is public and licensed under GPL, let me know if you want an account to make prs (make the changes first) https://git.waifuism.life/waifu/kemoverse RN: Devlog #3 A lot of updates yesterday, and the firsts public tests, along with bugfixing. Wasn't expecting it to blow up as much as it did, even if for now the bot is basically just a dice. Hopefully when more features are out, it attracts a bit more attention. Current features: - User accounts - Rolling - Creating characters - Roll history - Send, receive and save character images (Directly from the fediverse!) - Instance whitelisting - Replies are either dms or unlisted (for less spam) Immediate to do: - Whitelist system but for Users - Add time limitation on rolls Long term: - Trading - Card burning (exchanging low star cards for a roll) - Favorite chars, "status", "owned cards" or "cooldown" commands - Public post when someone rolls a rare card - Leaderboards - Most traded Characters - Most owned Characters - Most voted Characters - Most popular Characters (?) - Users with the rarest Characters - Simple card template, and a website to place images in the card. - Add pleroma support (Currently only works with misskey) Here's some of the characters that were added. (📎4) RN: Devlog #2 Steadily making progress, functions are a bit more clearer in my mind, pieces slowly start to fit. Updates: - instance whitelisting works - DMs are now replied with DMs too so people can play without spamming - Responses to commands are unlisted for less spam Since it's a misskey and not a pleroma bot I'm going to use the misskey drive to my advantage and directly load the files there so the database has just a bunch of ids instead of interacting with images locally or whatever, also so when posting again, the bot can use the same image it uploaded initially. I thought of making a GUI to interact with the database and insert the characters but perhaps I can just make it so the characters can be added from a bot command too, like: @waifumelon addchar "Pleroma-tan pregnant" [rareness] (image upload) Of course it would have a whitelist so not everyone can just add any character. We will see how easy it is but I really preferred to keep the website that also accesses the database to be read only so I don't have to worry about authentication RN: **Devlog of a fedi game** Since I'm currently making a small fedi game I wanted to share the ideas and see if someone is also interested. It's a small gacha game directly accessible from the fediverse. The idea would be to make the code open at some point while keeping the database with the characters somewhere else so people can reuse it without a problem since I wanted to place random characters lol Thinking of calling it "Kemoverse" but open to names. Some personal comments and the current todo: - Figure out how to implement images (both how to send and keep them) - An easy way to manage the characters table - Finalize the whitelist system - Add time limitation on rolls Long term: - Easy way to place characters in a "card", maybe using imagemagick so we can have a basic "card creator" - Add trading - Add more notifications when someone rolls a rare card - Add some fun to the Leaderboard - Add pleroma support (Currently only works with misskey) - Add more fluff to the website! Other comments: Using Misskey.py was surprisingly easy and fun. Yes this is kinda similar to the Mudae discord bot I guess **FAQ:** - Are you gonna ask for any money? Not unless it blows up in usage and my computer explodes, then you will have to pay for it idiots!! - Is Pleroma-tan going to have a card where she's preg- YES. STOP ASKING. (📎2)

    Trains #11 and #12 are more trams. Train #13 is this handsome, modern EMU from Zagreb to Volinja (and return to Sunja) pictured here at Volinja. I'd have liked to have gone further and crossed the border into Bosnia-Herzegovina, but guess what? There aren't any trains. No #crossborderrail for me @jon. The onward line across the river Una to Bosnia is on the left beyond the train.

    @Paradox Jersey Mike's menu works this way. All of their basic sandwiches are low numbers, and all of the "combination" sandwiches are just number + number. Like say if ham and cheese was #11 and turkey was #13 then ham and turkey and cheese would be #24. Their menu actually goes up to at least 66, if not more. https://www.jerseymikes.com/menu/hot-subs

    @jaythvv The problem with a list like this is that after the first two albums, I could rank the next 13 in basically any order. Something HAS to be #13, but the gap between 13 and 1, is smaller than the gap between 13 and 14.

    This thread https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1854030304677073233.html made its way around and everybody freaked out. Calm done, it's pretty much nonsense, born out of the author projecting his fears rather than displaying his understanding.

    True, my belief in #peakfascism, utterly justified in early summer, has been smashed by the state elections in Germany and the various elections now in the U.S. I had hoped otherwise and it didn't turn out. Yet.

    But that doesn't mean that the nonsense displayed in this thread (esp. posts # 11-17, 20-25) should be taken as reliable prediction or even profound insights instead. It's not based on an informed understanding of facts, but based on fear. Which is, as one doesn't need to learn anything for that, easier to act out and act upon.

    Calling T and Musk "the worst men in the United States" [#11] and conveniently ignoring Peter Thiel, Miriam Adelson, Mitch McConnell, some of the Supreme Court justices, etc., is just silly.

    Anyway, NATO will not cease to exist [#12] (although perhaps shrink); most of Gazans will not be killed [as claimed in #13] (although Israel will, in my opinion, annex the West Bank and leave Gaza to international administration); the EU will not shrink in size [#14] (no arguments given for the preposterous claim it would); a "new axis of evil" [#15] (rather: its enlargement) especially with the "new members" mentioned is so utter and uninformed nonsense that I don't even know where to start debunking that claim. Suffice perhaps that most of these new members are too poor and weak to pose as a threat.

    With regard to the horror porn the author sketches of the U.S. turned end-Weimar Republic [# 20-25] with all the screeching of martial law and police murder rates sykrocketting due to police activities, stock market crashes, and all, seriously, man, on what does the author base such fever dreams? Esp. when most of the stuff he is in the prerogatives of the individual states and not the federal government.

    Where I think the author is partly right is that nuclear weapons will get proliferated to more states. The author mentions Saudi Arabia, the Emirate of Dubai, and Egypt [#16] but ignores, e.g., the aspirations of Turkey. He also ignores that the UK and France think about sharing their nuclear weaponry with the European countries and even Germany thinking about acquiring nuclear deterrence, and all not for the authors beloved reason, i.e., T playing with witholding the U.S. nuclear shield, but for the other main reason, i.e., the imperialism of Russia and Putin. Which, of course, the author fails to mention; as he fails to mentio the other imperialism in China and Xi. (With that the author lands in the lala-land of conspiracy theories which all fail because they neglect or ignore the complexities they are supposed to explain.)

    The author is likewise partly right, in my opinion, that there will be a "new axis of evil". [#15] But definitely not the one he thinks of. (Venezuela, El Salvador, and Israel are in this new axis, but Iran is not? Seriously?)

    What emerges with T's second term of office, in my opinion, is an emerging and balancing alliance of oligarchic families, crime networks, states turned to mafia organisations,¹ greedy autocrats, influential billionairs, surveillance capitalists, etc., trying to run states like corporations, transgressing state boundaries and replacing international treaties with oligarchic accords and influence spheres. Their main goal is wealth, sweetened with power. In order for them to get rich and their activities unrestricted, they will use the means and institutions of national states to advance their aspirations. If Ukraine stands in their way, they will obliterate it. If not, they will find a more cost-efficient way around. One that is better for "business". (Imagine a Russian movie gangster's heavy English.)

    Financial greed does not need to be the sole motivation; finding meaning and purpose beyond, esp. when combined with a reason to fight and exert power, is a second one. Putin is a good example. Greedy like hell he still invests heaviliy in historical romaticism. Money doesn't provide meaning and purpose. Neither power. Meaning comes from somewhere else. Virility too.

    But all that does not mean that "fascism" (in lack of a better word) is now on the loose. It means that many oligarchic endeavours will turn out not to work or to work better when not combined with violence, when climate crisis is taken seriously, etc. That is: The rising and increasing worldwide oligarchic interconnectedness that results in reshaping whole national states into mafia organistation (with the president or leader as the Capo dei capi of such a mafia organisation) is far more likely than "the end of the world" as the author of the thread knows it.

    And if that outcome or development is the more likely scenario, than the instabilities that we will confront is less so in the civic spheres of societies than it is in the hierarchies of such crime syndicates posing as states themselves.

    What most people ignore when looking at such mafia systems is that they are intrinsically volatile and insecure to all of their members. Violence, paranoia, alliances, mistrust, and constant power struggles make not for the stability of such entities but for the violent character of these. And as one can see in the history of Russia of the past 30 years: Leave the mafia organsation and the Capo unchallenged, and life can be pretty normal for the burgeois peasant.

    That does not mean that I prefer such a life. But it means that I think the author of thread misplaces the area where violence will occur. The end is still far away. From that arises hope and obligation.


    ¹ This is not about a state being infiltrated by some mafia activities – and thus in part being harmed and in another capable to fight back – but a state that is turned completely into a mafia organisation: a criminal enterprise that uses the resources and legal perogatives of a national state in the service of the criminal entity. Or put differently: a mafia organisation that poses as a national state.

    Rule #13 of 3D Printing: friends don't let friends buy Creality. I'd currently look at Sovol and Bambu machines in that price range.You'll get a lot more value for your money.

    "Prairie strips" ...

    ... are narrow little parts of big farms that the farmers allow to return to nature ...

    ... with wild native plants growing there, and no fertilizer or pesticides

    Turns out these little strips of rewilding have a powerful and postive impact on the health of the surrounding soil

    Para o #TerSoftware #13 cujo tema é softwares que temos nostalgia vou mandar o (ainda funcionando) B2evolution...

    Infelizmente seu principal desenvolvedor informou (em 2020) que, após 17 anos de desenvolvimento, estava abandonando o projeto :frown:

    Era meu motor de blogue favorito por várias razões!

    Neste blogue stateoftheevolution.com/ ele tem indicado algumas sugestões para aqueles usuários que pretendem migrar (uma vez que ninguém fez um fork e continuou o desenvolvimento do mesmo).

    Portanto estou vivendo esta nostalgia enquanto planejo uma migração de vários blogues, alguns com mais de 20 anos no ar 😄

    Como diria o Mufasa: "O tempo de um reinado se levanta e se põe como o Sol...."
