A new 'ergonomic community control layout' for #FTL on the #SteamDeck has been made 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘮𝘴 𝘢 𝘩𝘪𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘺𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘥 𝘢 𝘯𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘮𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘢𝘯 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘍𝘛𝘓 𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘮 𝘋𝘦𝘤𝘬

It's called "Steam deck/Game Pad layout" by EPICMAN

Niche, I know, but if you're a Faster Than Light player, this might be a help?!

Aktualizace překladu FTL: Faster Than Light 👇
Diakritika už nevypadá jak systémové štíty při prvním zásahu, překlepy vzaly za své a dokonce jsem si pohrál s grafikou, aby české texty vypadaly stejně dobře jako anglické. Takže teď můžete umírat ve vesmíru ještě čitelněji a esteticky příjemněji! labros.cz/preklady/ftl-faster-

@geerlingguy i think lots of people need more than your regular pihole setup - meaning setting up recursive dns using unbound and also dual pihole - it is easy to clone a vm and make a few changes, then you have failover/redundancy. pihole is great but it does need some care and feeding - a great product for IT consultants to proffer #g-man approved #ftl

Today #FTL is simply used to view streams, a fragment of its complete potential to revolutionize communication. In a progressive society having well-defined concepts of right and wrong, mental evolution is essential for improvement. Being a bottom-feeder by choice is alright as long as it's sustainable.
FTL is no secret, as the concept of "open secret" is a paradox, and an example of generations of primitive belief systems being carried over. Digital technology is recent, and is a lesson for us.

Coming to #FTL and #consciousness one aspect is to get information delivered via mental instinct. The other option is reinforcement learning, where existing information is absorbed, utilised and built upon.
Before humans, there were other quadruped life forms. It's strange to see these beings behaving in an orderly fashion in a group(zebras) without explicit guidance.
It is possible that humans observed these animals and their behaviour and decided to implement the best parts in a collective.

... politicians that were allowed to see the classified info were persuaded [ufo data is] real ... [and we] are not privy to [it.]

Real and unidentified, yes. Aerial navigation or other hazards, yes. Equipment or observational or human perceptual issues, yes. Unexplained... follows from being unidentified. Which is why the armed forces and civil navigation agencies must work to identify these things. Jumping to "they're extraterrestrial" is jumping to the most improbable answer, considering the mind-numbingly great distance and time necessary to travel between stars. I'm not saying no, I'm not saying impossible, but that no amount of wishing or trying to massage data to increase the probabilities is going to make it true. Belief for those not in the know is even more unfounded. Belief that affirmative information is being hidden derives from even less understanding and less data, and lots of confirmation bias, and people with axes to grind or money to make taking advantage of a level of gulliablity.

I am only deriding the belief and the idiocy of belief and the manipulation of belief for someone's gain. I'd welcome finding extraterrestrial civilization. Then I'd worry why they went to all that trouble. It would certainly disrupt our societies, especially considering rampant xenophobia we see everyday in the news. How the religious would react with humanity no longer the center of the universe would be interesting. The discovery would change... EVERYTHING.

PS: The wisdom of trusting politicians aside, let's not mischaracterizes the released data as somehow affirming extraterrestrial origins. Let's not mischaracterize that high speed or high energy phenomenon that is unidentified could also actually be being kept secret as it can release information about military assets and research, or other investigations. Reading between the lines in search of clues to secrets is assuming there are hints inserted there, intentionally, and that begs the question, why would information officers do that?

Kind of amazing to me that Subset Games released #FTL 12 years ago and sometimes I feel like I'm still scratching the surface with that game.

But that's its genius IMO. You can be a casual player and very much enjoy a quick "how long can I stay alive?" sortie, or you can min/max it like a tabletop RPG monster and dive HOLY CRAP DEEP into the wiki and strategies etc.

I just wish it played better on #SteamDeck No fault of theirs, its controls just aren't well suited to a portable gaming platform like that.

Someone would need to sink some serious time into a custom control scheme I'd guess.

Small minds these Tech Bros, finding a way around the 0.2 second latency in HEO satellite internet.
They went for mega constellations at LEO, which as it would turn out, might fuck the Ozone layer when they inevitably burn up.

A true galaxy brain would just develop FTL communications like a badass. :catjam:
But no, these men went weak and flaccid.....their hustle has been exposed

SCIENCE!

"[Mexican physicist Miguel Alcubierre] discovered that it was possible to build a warp drive through a clever manipulation of spacetime, arranging it so that space in front of a vessel gets scrunched up and the space behind the vessel stretched out. This generates motion without, strictly speaking, movement.

It sounds like a contradiction, but that’s just one of the many wonderful aspects of general relativity. Alcubierre’s warp drive avoids violations of the speed-of-light limit because it never moves through space; instead space itself is manipulated to, in essence, bring the spacecraft’s destination closer to it.

While tantalizing, Alcubierre’s design has a fatal flaw. To provide the necessary distortions of spacetime, the spacecraft must contain some form of exotic matter, typically regarded as matter with negative mass. Negative mass has some conceptual problems that seem to defy our understanding of physics, like the possibility that if you kick a ball that weighs negative 5 kilograms, it will go flying backwards, violating conservation of momentum."

A warp drive breakthrough? Maybe. A breakthrough in our understanding of gravity? Probably!

(Scientists don't understand gravity very well at all.)

The problem with this subject is that it makes so many unchallenged assumptions, beginning with whether or not it is even worthwhile to conduct manned exploration of #space, given the laws of #Physics. Sadly, a lot of people without a solid foundational education in Physics assume that technology will simply continue to get "better", because our past experiences of #technology have created a steady progression.

But, we are approaching the point with our understanding of the
#universe that we know to a very fine degree how little there is left to know about the universe that we can meaningfully affect, due to the simply nature of the amount of energy it requires to do anything at an #interplanetary, let alone #interstellar scale.

There is no "magic" energy source and there isn't ever going to be a "hyperdrive" or "warp drive" that enables travel at a significant fraction of the speed of light, let alone
#FTL faster than light travel. And even if it were possible to create distortions in #spacetime, we already understand that the energy levels which would be required for that to happen are not attainable by human tools, probably not even if you have deluded yourself into thinking humans will ever be able to build a #sustainable #fusion reactor powerplant, let alone one small enough to outfit a #spacecraft.

Many of the psychological problems that this type of
#research is attempting to solve arise out of the simple fact that the only people who are ever going to be considered for manned space missions are themselves #elites with huge #egos and towering senses of #entitlement engendered by their supposed merit. Such people are inevitably going to create conflict between each other. These are people who are inherently competitive and combative, and putting them into a pressure cooker is guaranteed to cause an explosion, at some point.

Yes, literally a pressure cooker, because that's really what a spacecraft is, in the first place—a pressurized, heated containment vessel.

There are millions, billions of people here on Earth who every single day are facing the very same psychological, technical, and resources challenges that manned exploration of space entails; however, we as a society are spending billions of dollars on novel technologies in an attempt to alleviate these challenges for a minuscule, elite cohort, instead of investing in the proven, non-technological solutions we know would alleviate these conditions for billions of people on Earth.

Comparing 17th Century terrestrial
#exploration to 21st Century exploration of interplanetary space is comparing apples to oranges. For one thing, we have radios, now, which would make #communications possible even between #Mars and Earth in less than 1 hour, something Henry Hudson couldn't have enjoyed beyond a few miles' radius, at best, in his time. And yet, even though we figured out how to communicate with a spacecraft outside the Solar System some 45 years ago, we still struggle to provide reliable communications to the people of Earth, still today—not because we don't know how, but because we as a society don't believe everyone deserves it.

It's not a technological problem, it's a political problem, caused by psychological problems in the hearts and minds of those who wield social, cultural, political, and economic power right here on Earth.

Assuming we have General Relativity completely right and assuming that a meaningful understanding of dark energy and/or a quantum theory of gravity doesn't completely alter our perspective on the fundamental nature of space-time and assuming that humans don't burn, choke, drown and poison themselves back to the Stone Age over the next ten years, then yes; - could happen. :-)
