2023.05.30 23:57 FlyingAsss X Box controller not working properly in menus (steam)

Hello,
After exprole the horizon update my controller (MS Xbox controller, gen9) is not working properly in Forza horizon 5 (steam version) menus. Its impossible to navigate in menu since right stick, left stick, arrows, triggers and buttons are overresponding. Slightest touch in menu sends me couple of pages/cars etc. I have had this same problem couple of updates ago too, but it fixed itself after next update so I moved on.

Before you ask:
Driving in FH5 is fine, problem only exist in menu
No, there is no issue in any other game
Controller and game is up to date, controller works fine in "controller test" websites
I have already tried to change steam input settings, it was not effective

I have seen some people complaining aboıut the same problem but there were no solution. I believe this is some bug that developers aren't aware of yet, but maybe there is a solution that I couldn't find online. Either way I hope this helps to attract some attention to the problem.

Thanks in advance

Update 36 Release Notes

Here are the release notes for Update 36: Gondor Renewed, released on Wednesday, May 31st, 2023.

Of Special Note:

A New Story Begins in A Renewed King's Gondor!

After the defeat of Sauron, King Elessar and Queen Arwen seek to bring peace to their kingdom, but the danger is not gone and new foes seek to threaten Gondor. Adventure awaits in the new zone of King's Gondor East, set after the War of the Ring when fresh breezes have dispersed the fumes of the Dawnless Day and allowed the sun to shine again! Discover the beginning of a new Epic-style storyline, 'The Song of Waves and Wind,' and team up with Legolas, Gimli, and friends both old and new to investigate the continuing threat of the Heirs of Castamir!
The Song of Waves and Wind
A new story debuts with Gondor Renewed called "The Song of Waves and Wind"! For characters level 140. Start the first chapter by speaking to Glindor in Minas Tirith (Midsummer)! This new story is available to anyone who is VIP, purchases the "Gondor Renewed" quest pack, or who purchases quest packs associated with the story that are released in the future.
King's Gondor Awaits
Gone are the gloomy dark skies, replaced with bright and sunny fields and hills. Players familiar with the original Central and Eastern Gondor regions will be familiar with King's Gondor from a navigation standpoint, but there are new additions, and places players previously could not go are now open to allow for further exploration!
The Quest Pack "Gondor Renewed" unlocks more than 80 quests and Deeds for level 140 characters. Includes King's Gondor East and The Song of Waves and Wind. Free to VIPs!
How do I get to King's Gondor?
Go to Minas Tirith (After Battle) and head South through the Pelennor Fields. Where there once stood an impassable is no more! Questing begins in this area of the Pelennor Fields and in the under-construction version of The Harlond. From there, you can explore Gondor up to Linhir, where the gates are currently closed.​

Landscape Difficulty: The Paths of Valour!

We have reworked the Landscape Difficulty setting system introduced with Treebeard and are now opening it to the general game worlds as an option! Read full details about this new Landscape Difficulty option in the release notes below.​ A new Faction and new rewards are now available by playing these higher difficulties. Activate your difficulty and adjust it in the future by speaking with a Hardened Traveller, which can be found in major hubs and new player zones throughout Middle-earth:

There are titles available for activating a difficulty of 3 or higher and keeping it there from level 10 to level 50, and then to level 130 respectively. The title granted depends on the class you play, but can be used by any character on your account. Make sure to select your Landscape Difficulty prior to achieving level 10 to be eligible for these titles! In order to earn these titles, you must keep the difficulty system active for the entire leveling span from level 10 thru 50/130. Entering areas of the game world where it is temporarily suppressed will not invalidate your title attempt, however turning it down or off via the Hardened Traveller will.

More Delvings!

More Delvings are now available! The Annúminas instances Glinghant, Haudh Valandil, and the Great Barrows instances Sambrog, Thadûr and The Maze have been converted to be playable as Delvings! Find them in the Instance Finder (Control+J by default).​

I ONCE AGAIN HAVE TO READ THE STORY ABOUT HUMANS AND MONSTERS, BUT I LEARN HOW TO SKIP IT ABOUT HALFWAY THROUGH, SO THAT'S NICE! I GO TO THE MENU, AND I SEE TORIEL READING A BOOK TO THE CATCHY MUSIC! I CLICK SETTINGS TO SEE WHAT THERE IS, BUT I CAN ONLY CHANGE THE LANGUAGE! SO I GO BACK AND CLICK CONTINUE INSTEAD!
I AM IN SNOWDIN FOREST, WITH FRISK GREETING ME WITH THEIR USUAL STARE! I WALK OVER TO THE BOX AND SEE THE TOUGH GLOVE, WHICH I DO NOT NEED! BUT SOMEONE PROBABLY LEFT IT THERE, SO I SHALL LEAVE IT IN THE BOX! I THEN ENTER THE NEXT ROOM AND FIND ME TALKING ABOUT HOW UNDYNE'S TRAINING WAS GOING VERY WELL, BUT GOT CUT OFF BY ME!
SANS AND I START SPINNING, AND I GET FOOLED BY SANS, THINKING THE HUMAN IS A ROCK! THEN SANS UN-FOOLS ME AND I TELL ME I WILL BE CAPTURED AND DELIVERED TO THE CAPITAL, AND I WILL BE SUPER SUPER POPULAR BECAUSE OF IT, AND SANS AND I RUN AWAY! SO I WALK FORWARD AND OBSERVE THE COOL SENTRY STATION, BUT GET ATTACKED BY A SNOWDRAKE! FLOWERY SUGGESTS I SPARE, SO I DO, AND SNOWDRAKE TELLS A HORRIBLE PUN!

I'M VERY EXCITED TO SEE HOW A ROYAL GUARDSMAN FIGHTS THAT ISN'T UNDYNE! BUT MY EXCITEMENT IS IMMEDIATELY SHATTERED WHEN I LEARN DOGGO'S ONLY ATTACK IS A BLUE SWORD. BUT, IT'S JUST THE FIRST ATTACK, AND HE CAN'T SEE VERY WELL, SO I FORGIVE HIM! I PET DOGGO, AND HE STARTS FREAKING OUT!! AND THEN HE USES THE SAME ATTACK. STILL, I CAN'T BLAME HIM! I SPARE DOGGO, AND LOOK AT THE SMOKED DOG TREATS! ALSO, I REALIZE I HAVE 64G! I CAN'T WAIT TO FIND THE NICE CREAM MAN AND BUY SOME NICE CREAM!
I ENTER THE NEXT ROOM, AND SEE SANS, WHO ISN'T DOING ANYTHING. I TALK TO HIM AND HE TELLS THE HUMAN ABOUT MY BLUE ATTACK!!! I SUPPOSE IT'S OKAY, SINCE DOGGO ALREADY RUINED THE SURPRISE, BUT COME ON, SANS! I WALK AWAY FROM SANS AND PREPARE TO SLIDE ON THE ICE, BUT GET ATTACKED BY ICE CAP! I COMPLIMENT THEM, BUT THAT DOESN'T DO ANYTHING, AND I GET HIT! I TRY COMPLIMENTING YET AGAIN, BUT STILL, NOTHING. FLOWERY SAYS I SHOULD USE STEAL, BUT I WANT TO TRY TO IGNORE THEM INSTEAD!

THEN I GO RIGHT, AND FIND THE DOG MARRIAGE ROOM, AND THEN I GO DOWN AND GO TO THE NEXT ROOM, AND FIND SANS' "PUZZLE", WHICH IS VERY LAZY! I WALK PAST THE WORD SEARCH AND SANS AND I ARGUE ABOUT CROSSWORD AND JUNIOR JUMBLE! FLOWERY SAYS I SHOULD SAY CROSSWORD, BUT I SAY THE CORRECT ANSWER, WHICH IS JUNIOR JUMBLE, AND SANS THANKS ME FOR SAYING THAT JUST TO MAKE ME HAPPY, WHICH ISN'T TRUE! JUNIOR JUMBLE IS HARDER!! I THEN ENTER THE NEXT ROOM
AND WHEN I ENTER THE ROOM, I SEE MY SPAGHETTI TRAP! UNFORTUNATELY, GAME ME DIDN'T CONSIDER TO KEEP IT WARM AND IT'S FROZEN!! OH NO!

BUT I STILL CANNOT SPARE THEM! SO, I TRY TO PET THEM, AND THEY LET ME, AND I WIN THE BATTLE, AND CONTINUE TO THE NEXT AREA!
I ENTER THE X-O PUZZLE ROOM, AND SOLVE IT WITH EASE! THIS FEELS LIKE CHEATING, AS I ALREADY KNOW THE SOLUTION TO ALL THE PUZZLES IN SNOWDIN, BUT ALAS! I CANNOT UN-KNOWLEDGE MYSELF!

I WALK ONTO THE BRIDGE OF THE COLOR TILE PUZZLE, AND GAME ME EXPLAINS THE RULES, WHICH I ALREADY KNOW! BUT FRISK DOESN'T, SO YET AGAIN, I AM GRATEFUL! BUT THEN, I CAN ONLY WATCH IN HORROR AS THE TILE PUZZLE MAKES THE RED AND PINK PATH AND COMPLETELY REMOVES THE CHALLENGE! I WALK ACROSS AND TALK TO SANS, WHO TELLS ME MY FOOD WILL BE EDIBLE SOON! WHICH IS VERY INSULTING, BUT ALSO FLATTERING?? AND I ENTER THE NEXT ROOM!
AND I SEE SNOWDOGS OF LESSER DOG WITH REALLY LONG NECKS AND HEADS THAT HAVE ALL FALLEN OFF. I GET FILLED WITH DETERMINATION FROM THE KNOWLEDGE THAT LESSER DOG WILL NEVER GIVE UP ON TRYING TO MAKE THE PERFECT SNOWDOG, AND SAVE THE GAME! I TALK TO THE PERSON WHO'S NAME I TOTALLY REMEMBER, AND THEY TELL ME ABOUT THE SADDENING FATE OF LESSER DOG, AND I ENTER THE NEXT ROOM!
I FIND THE ICE X-O PUZZLE, BUT I GO DOWN TO VISIT MY SNOWPAPYRUS, AND SANS' LUMP OF SNOW. THEN I SAY GOODBYE TO THEM, AND SOLVE THE ICE PUZZLE WITH EASE! BUT THEN FRISK HAS A SNOWDOG OF THE RAMBUNCTIOUS RODENT ON THEIR HEAD, WHICH DISAPPEARS IMMEDIATELY! I GO DOWN TO SEE SANS DOING HIS SHORTCUT SHENANIGANS, AND GET ATTACKED BY GYFTROT, SO I TRY TO GIVE THEM A GIFT, BUT THEY REFUSE IT, SO I HELP UNDECORATE IT! I DO THAT AGAIN, AND GET HIT! BUT I UNDECORATE IT ONE MORE TIME, AND THEN THEY ARE HAPPY AGAIN! BUT BEFORE I LEAVE, I GIVE THEM A GIFT, A GIFT OF 35G! THEN I SPARE THEM AND LEAVE TO THE NEXT AREA!
I FIND A BUNCH OF SNOW POFFS, BUT I KNOW ONE OF THEM HAS G INSIDE IT, AND I WANT SOMEONE WHO NEEDS IT TO FIND IT! I INSPECT THE TINY DOGHOUSE, AND WALK FORWARD TO MEET GREATER DOG! I TRY TO PET THEM, BUT THEY'RE TOO FAR AWAY, SO I CALL THEM OVER AND THEN PET THEM! AND THEN IT'S AWAKE AND VERY EXCITED! FORTUNATELY, I AVOID ANY ATTACKS THROWN MY WAY, AND THEN I PLAY WITH IT! AND I PET IT SOME MORE, GET HIT ONCE, BUT EVENTUALLY I WIN THE BATTLE! GREATER DOG KISSES ME GOODBYE AND WALKS AWAY, AND SO DO I! TO THE GAUNTLET OF DEADLY TERROR WITH ME!
I WALK ONTO THE GAUNTLET OF DEADLY TERROR, AND SAY HELLO TO THE CAMERA UNDERNEATH IT!

I TALK TO SANS, AND HE TELLS ME MORE ABOUT MY BLUE ATTACKS (STILL UPSET AT HIM), AND I FIND SNOWDIN TOWN, AND GET HIT WITH NOSTALGIA TO THE EXTREME! I GET FILLED WITH DETERMINATION FROM THE SIGHT OF SUCH A FRIENDLY TOWN, AND SAVE THE GAME! THEN I ENTER THE SHOP! I'M GONNA NEED ALL THE PREPARATION I CAN GET IF I WANT TO BEAT GAME ME IN COMBAT! I BUY A MANLY BANDANA, AND A CINNAMON BUN! I EQUIP THE BANDANA, AND PUT MY BANDAGE AND RIBBON IN THE BOX, AND THEN I BUY ONE MORE CINNAMON BUN, BUT THEN I RUN OUT OF MONEY! THIS SHOULD BE ENOUGH, HOWEVER! WITH MY KNOWLEDGE ABOUT MY FIGHTING STYLE, I SHOULD BE OUT OF HARMS WAY IN NO TIME! I WALK THROUGH TOWN AND SAY HELLO TO EVERYONE, AND THEN I FINALLY WALK TO THE END OF SNOWDIN TOWN, AND I CALL TORIEL, WHO DOESN'T ANSWER. SHE HAS PROBABLY BEEN ROBBED BY THAT PESKY PUP! BUT THEN, I FINALLY DECIDE I AM READY FOR THE BATTLE OF A LIFETIME!
GAME ME THROWS ME INTO BATTLE AFTER A GREAT SPEECH ABOUT FRIENDSHIP AND POPULARITY, AND I DECIDE TO FLIRT WITH MYSELF! I TELL GAME ME I CAN MAKE SPAGHETTI, AND MEET MY OWN STANDARDS! GAME ME THROWS A BONE ATTACK ON THE FLOOR, BUT HE DIDN'T TURN ME BLUE YET! I SPARE GAME ME, AND I HANDLE THE FABLED BLUE ATTACK WITH EASE! AND I DODGE THE TRICK-BONE EASILY AS WELL, AND I HAVE OFFICIALLY BEEN FLOORED!

BACK TO OUR REGULARLY SCHEDUELED DESCRIPTIVE PLAYTHROUGH!
THE FOG FADES AWAY, AND THE GREAT PAPYRUS WALLOWS IN SORROW AND DEFEAT. "NYOO HOO HOO!" HE CRIES OUT, AS HE SHAMES HIMSELF OUT OF SADNESS! BUT WORRY NOT, DEAR PAPYRUS! FOR I, THE GREAT COOL HUMAN, AKA FRISK, HAVE DECIDED TO BE YOUR VERY COOL FRIEND! THE GREAT PAPYRUS CHEERS UP IMMEDIATELY, VERY GRATEFUL TO HAVE ANOTHER FRIEND! THE GREAT PAPYRUS GIVES DIRECTIONS TO THE SURFACE, AND TALKS ABOUT THE GREAT KING ASGORE! AND THEN HE FLIES BACK HOME SATISFIED WITH THE RESULTS OF THIS DUEL! BUT PAPYRUS' GREAT STORY DOESN'T END THERE, FOR FRISK WILL BE COMING BACK TO HIS HOUSE TO DATE HIM, NEXT TIME ON PAPYRUS AND FLOWERY PLAY UNDERTALE AND REGURGITATE THE KNOWLEDGE BACK TO YOU!!

2023.05.30 20:28 NewYearsD A Detailed Post-Trip Report 2 Weeks in Japan (Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka) 28/M/US

I spent 2 weeks traveling through Japan - Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto and I'm writing this for those who are thinking about visiting. To preface, I did travel with a friend but spent a lot of time on my own. I'll cover as much as possible.
Pre-Trip
I booked a flight with American Airlines / Delta Airlines for $590 round-trip three months before departing.
I flew out of Los Angeles to Tokyo (Haneda). The trip started on February 9 and ended on February 20. I booked my accommodation before arriving in Japan. I used Hostelworld and Agoda. More about the hostels and hotels I booked are below.
COVID Screening and Visa information for US Citizens only
During the time I visited, Japan still required visitors to be fully vaccinated and have a pre-screening for arrival. First I had to do a pre-screening for American Airlines on VeriFly (please do this a day before checking in at the airport if so). Then, save yourself time and use Visit Japan Web (http://vjw-lp.digital.go.jp/en/) and do the pre-screening requirements a couple of days before departure.
When you land in Tokyo, immediately after deplaning, swaths of airport personnel ask if you have the screener filled out and ready to go. If you don’t, they put you to the side and ask you to fill it out using the airport’s wifi. It takes time and you still have to go through customs after.
Visas for US citizens is a free, 3-month visa if I recall correctly. Bring your COVID vaccination card just in case they ask for it.
Tech/Phone
I took my iPhone 14 Pro (unlocked) and connected buying Ubigi 10gb data plan. Do this before flying to Japan. When you land, you can activate your data plan directly on your phone. I didn’t get pocket wifi as the Ubigi worked perfectly.
Download the Ubigi app. They give instructions but please follow them.
Apps that I used:
Google Maps: you can download offline maps.
Google Translate: Use this everywhere you go. You can use the camera feature and it can translate Japanese to English really great. It saved me a lot of hassle when ordering at restaurants.
Currency Converter
You might want to download a VPN if you want to use Netflix and such. Express VPN is one I’d recommend.
Money/Currency
I took my Charles Schwab debit card and a backup Chase credit card/Chase debit card. Surprisingly, a lot of stores in Japan are cash-heavy; especially small shops and restaurants. My budget for the trip was $2000 with flights included.
Hostels and hotels were around $20-35 USD. Food prices were about $7-$20 a meal. It can get really expensive if you eat at fine dining restaurants. That being said, I stuck to eating mostly at hole-in-the-wall establishments where no English was spoken. Believe me when I say that the best ramen I ever had was only $7 USD. More on what restaurants I recommend are down below. If you really want to save money, don’t buy alcohol.
A solid budget for me was $60-$80 per day without lodging expenses. Some days, I only spent $40 which was all food (I spare no expense for food), then some days I went over because I bought cool souvenirs for myself and some excursions were pricey. You can visit Japan for less but I didn’t want to money pinch myself because I was only there for 2 weeks.
Transportation
I love Japan for this reason. So here’s my take: If you are visiting Japan for exactly 14 days; get the JR Pass on Klook. You buy this a month before departing your home country. For me, Klook delivered it about a week after I bought it over Mail. You could buy either a 7, 14, or 21-day JR pass so I would recommend planning a trip that matches these exact number of days to get the most out of your money.
Now imagine you’re in Japan. It is your first day officially visiting…go to a JR Pass office at any major train station and ask them to redeem your pass. They will ask for the paper ticket that arrived in the mail to your home and they will ask for your passport. After they verify that it is you, they will give you a small ticket which will be your JR pass. DO NOT LOSE THIS! I believe they will not replace it. On how to use it, check out this video.
Now to navigate, I used a combination of Google Maps and Apple Maps to get around. Use whichever one is more comfortable for you. These 2 apps are really exceptional at mapping out the best routes and the times trains depart. Note: the JR Pass only works for JR rail lines! Tokyo/Kyoto/Osaka all have their own subways and train lines with their own payment system. More on this…
So the best way to get around the city is using a Suica card. These are sold virtually at any train station. If you can't find it, ask a train station attendant and say “Suica?”. They point you in the right direction.
A Suica card can be refilled unlimited times and can be used for any rail lines (JR included, but not for Bullet Trains). It is used by tapping at the turnstiles to enter the rails and at any vending machine in Japan! Also at arcades! It is a total mindblower haha Also in Tokyo, some hostels or hotels have a 3-day subway pass for cheap.
Bullet Trains - You can use the Shinkansen bullet trains if you have the JR Pass. Make an important note: You can only ride the Hikari or Sakura trains with your JR Pass. The Nozomi and Mizuho are reserved seating and cost extra because they have fewer stops. If they catch you using these rail lines, they will ask you to get off the next stop or worse, fine you and report you. To see Mount Fuji from Tokyo to Kyoto/Osaka, sit on the right side of the train (right side of the direction it is going). Use Google Maps and Apple Maps to pinpoint when to look out the window.
Food
I usually ate sandwiches and pastries from 7-Eleven in the morning or whenever I needed to pack a lunch. It was a great way to save cash and the food was delicious. High-quality foods and snacks.
As I said earlier, I really spare no expense for good, big meals. I save money at 7-Eleven so I can go all out for lunch and dinner. My go-to meal was usually ramen because it was so damn good. I tried a lot of foods. I’ll try and remember which ones I ate: - Ramen - Okonomiyaki - Unagi - Katsu Curry - Taiyaki - Tempura - Japanese cheesecake - Macha ice cream - Macha waffles - Onigiri - And a lot of different ice creams, confectionary snacks - McDonald’s - please try lol they have interesting combinations
Pack List
I used a 40-liter Osprey backpack.
1 scarf
1 beanie
2 cotton t-shirts
2 thermal polyester long-sleeve shirts (Odor resistant)
2 pairs of joggers
1 pair of Nike thermal leggings
8 pairs of Nike Dri-Fit boxers (lost 1)
4 pairs of ankle socks
3 pairs of Darn Tough Merino wool blend socks (Highly recommend, Odor resistant)
1 parka
1 pair of Adidas Ultraboost shoes
1 Hershel toiletries bag
2 Forge cable combination locks
External battery pack (13000 mAh)
Bose QC-25 noise-canceling headphones
Over the course of the trip, I bought a much-needed 30L Patagonia day backpack
I don’t sweat heavily so I re-wore my shirts, the Merino wool blend socks, and joggers. I did my laundry maybe once or twice at the hostels. It was freezing at the time I went, so I usually layered up when temperatures were lower than usual.
Safety
I am a 6'1" (1.85 m) male with a light brown complexion. I felt safe most of my time there. I think it was the safest country I have ever been to. Some Japanese people are known to be racist but I didn’t experience it. So I wouldn’t worry about it.
Itinerary/Activities
Feb 9 Day 1 Tokyo Feb 10 Day 2 Tokyo Feb 11 Day 3 Tokyo (Day Trip to Odiaba/Yokohama) Feb 12 Day 4 Osaka Feb 13 Day 5 Osaka (Day Trip to Hime-ji Castle/Kobe) Feb 14 Day 6 Osaka (Day Trip to Nara) Feb 15 Day 7 Kyoto Feb 16 Day 8 Kyoto Feb 17 Day 9 Kyoto Feb 18 Day 10 Tokyo Feb 19 Day 11 Tokyo Feb 20 Day 12 Tokyo (Fly Out)

Tips, Advice, and Bonus Stuff!
  1. Goes without saying but please respect the local customs.
  2. Please learn how to say “Thank You” in Japanese! Just learning and using “Arigato” anywhere you go will make you seem like you care and respect everyone. Nothing was more embarrassing than watching an American say “thank you” to a Japanese person.
  3. Plan to do the major tourist attractions early in the morning. You will get nice pictures without any tourists and you’ll sometimes get the whole temple complex to yourself. The staff will also be more friendly and willing to chat with you. I usually aim to be at temples around 7:00 when they open.
  4. Use Google Translate for everything! You can have full conversations with friendly Japanese people when using the conversation feature on the app! Use the camera feature to translate Kanji at restaurants that do not offer an English menu.
  5. Get a Ubigi data plan, I bought 10GB and it had good service anywhere I went. Get more GB if you plan on staying longer.
  6. I ate at 7-Eleven most of the time when I was too lazy or tired to go out. The 7-Elevens here in Japan are nothing like the ones in the US. Expect to find high-quality sandwiches, Onigiri, and more Japanese snacks.
  7. Shop at supermarkets near the end of the day (1 hour before closing) and they usually mark down prepped meals half-off or at a discounted price! If you really on a budget, this can help you to save a ton of money and still get a taste of the local cuisine.
  8. If you need to buy random stuff like clothes, bags, or toiletries; go shop at any Don Quijote or Tokyu Hands department store. They have other shops too that are great to find cool stuff.
  9. Use Google Translate to translate English to Kanji (Japanese) and use Kanji to find restaurants that are hidden because they don’t use English words. For example, if you want to find the best ramen place, search “拉麺” and you’ll find hidden gems with 5-star reviews!
  10. The best souvenir I brought back myself was a Goshuincho. These are “honorable stamp/seal book” used by people visiting shrines or temples. If you want more info, google this! I highly recommend doing this!
If you have any questions, comment below or send a DM. Peace!

2023.05.30 19:17 dickangstrom User Reporting is Inadequate to Combat Spam Bots

I originally posted this to help, but their mods deleted it and said my post was more suited for this sub, so here goes:
Reddit's current model of reporting suspicious accounts is woefully inadequate for combating bot follower accounts, and I would like to know what reddit is doing about it. If this isn't the right sub for this issue of accountability, please let me know where I can complain.
I have received multiple bot followers recently, and there is no easy way to report an account as a bot. When you click the hamburger menu on a user's account and choose Report Account , you're brought to a support article. The article says that you should report specific posts / comments made by the user rather than reporting the whole account. There is no way to take any action from that link. That same article says, "6185 out of 38806 found this helpful"-- makes sense, as linking to a useless article usually yields a ~16% upvote rate.
While I understand reddit's user-reporting rationale, this policy makes it much harder to report accounts that are very obviously bots. I've seen posts recently like this one where other users have experienced similar frustrations.
Some users have advised others to disable followers, but I think that's a bridge too far; I still want the option to have followers, but I don't want a constant influx of spam accounts either. Edit: I also know you can block users, which I have been doing. Still, that offers no help to others being plagued by the exact same accounts.
What is reddit doing to combat the bot followers that have proliferated recently, and what can we do as individuals besides reading unhelpful documents or shutting off followers altogether?
My suggestion (based on u/Nova1395's comment) would be to allow an entire account to be reported as a bot. Large companies like reddit have tons of private metadata about a user account, such as sign-up time, number of posts, and activity. The reddit admins could vet these reported accounts and auto-suspend the really suspicious ones and offer some sort of appeal process for legitimate users.

P0491, P0492, P1346
From what I understand, P0491 and P0492 are very common on these cars (‘03 325i) but I don’t know enough about these cars to know if P1346 is related to the others or not. Has anyone in here ever had these 3 together and if so what should I be looking for in terms of a solution? I’ve read through a bunch of forums and watched some videos it haven’t found a definitive solution. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Quick question for anyone who designs in 2K23; Where are the train tracks, or railway tracks?
I have seen then on another course, but cannot find them in the Designer menu. In the past versions I have buried bridges to approximate tracks, but actual tracks now seem to be available, but danged if I can find 'em.

2023.05.30 16:53 bryguy1010 Windows Taskbar moving around on its own and now stuck on left, anyone seen this?

I'm running triple 22's in nvidia surround ultrawide and all has been normal. Boot up a couple days ago and the taskbar is still centered but now on top. Yes I know there are reg hacks or tools to move it but didn't do anything like that to cause or fix. I reboot and its back on the bottom BUT now its stuck on the left.
To be clear I'm not talking about alignment where the windows button is on the left of taskbar, i mean the whole taskbar is on the left 1/3 of my ultrawide. When I click the windows button (Start) the Start Menu opens in the middle like always even though it is now not above the taskbar it opened from.
I've toggled everything back and forth in taskbar settings, undid and redid the surround setup, it just seems like something is forcing the whole taskbar left. I'm blaming MS in my head for an update causing this but wanted to see if anyone else has dealt with this and what you did?
Not the end of the world as everything else is perfectly normal, it's just flaring my OCD.
Thanks all!

Oil and Gas Industry:
The oil and gas industry heavily relies on mild steel pipes for efficient resource transportation. These pipes are crucial for conveying petroleum products, natural gas, and various chemicals. The strength, reliability, and cost-effectiveness of MS pipes make them an excellent choice for pipelines in the industry. They possess the ability to withstand high-pressure applications, making them suitable for both onshore and offshore operations. The most trusted and noteworthy MS Pipe dealer in Gujarat - Tube Trading Co. caters to the demand for quality pipes in the oil and gas sector, ensuring the seamless flow of resources and contributing to the industry's overall productivity.
Automotive Manufacturing:

MS pipes are durable and resistant to harsh environmental conditions, making them suitable for both above-ground and underground installations. They are also utilized in the construction of fencing structures, greenhouses, and enclosures for livestock. Square pipes, distributed by Tube Trading Co. - a reliable MS Pipe dealer in Gujarat, are commonly employed to create robust support frames for agricultural structures, ensuring their stability and longevity.
Manufacturing and Engineering:
Mild steel pipes are widely utilized in the manufacturing sector for diverse purposes. They play a crucial role in the fabrication of machinery, equipment, and conveyor systems. MS pipes are employed as conduits for the efficient transport of fluids, gases, and other materials within manufacturing plants. Due to their strength and ductility, these pipes are reliable for conveying compressed air, hydraulic fluids, and various chemicals. Furthermore, in the automotive industry, MS pipes find extensive usage in the production of exhaust systems, roll cages, and chassis components, thanks to their durability and affordability.
Infrastructure Development:
MS pipes play a significant role in infrastructure development projects. They are used for the construction of bridges, flyovers, and elevated highways, providing structural support and facilitating the transportation of people and goods. MS pipes are also employed in the installation of underground utility networks, including water supply, sewage, and gas pipelines.
Choosing the right-sized mild steel pipes for your project:
Choosing the right-sized mild steel pipes for your project is crucial to ensure proper functionality, structural integrity, and cost-effectiveness. Let’s explore some key factors to consider while choosing the right-sized MS pipes:
Flow Requirements: Determine the flow rate or volume of fluids or gases that will pass through the pipe. Calculate the required pipe diameter based on the desired flow velocity and pressure drop. This will help you choose a pipe size that can handle the anticipated flow without causing excessive pressure loss.
Load-Bearing Capacity: Assess the load-bearing requirements of your project. Consider the weight or load that the pipe will need to support, whether it's structural loads, machinery, or equipment. Larger-diameter pipes with thicker walls generally have a higher load-bearing capacity, providing greater strength and stability.
Material Compatibility: Ensure that the chosen mild steel pipe is compatible with the fluids or gases that will be conveyed. Consider factors such as corrosion resistance, chemical compatibility, and temperature limitations. Mild steel pipes are generally suitable for a wide range of applications, but if you anticipate exposure to corrosive environments, you may need to consider additional protective coatings or alternative materials.
Installation Considerations: Evaluate the available space and installation requirements. Consider factors such as the pipe's length, flexibility, and ease of joining. Determine whether you need straight lengths or require bends, fittings, or connectors to navigate through the project site. Ensure that the chosen pipe size can be accommodated within the available space without hindering the overall functionality of the system.
Standards and Regulations: Comply with industry standards and regulations governing pipe sizing for specific applications. Different industries and regions may have specific guidelines regarding pipe size selection. Familiarize yourself with relevant codes and standards to ensure compliance and to guarantee the safety and efficiency of your project.
Cost Considerations: Evaluate the cost implications associated with different pipe sizes. Larger-diameter pipes with thicker walls tend to be more expensive than smaller ones. Consider the balance between cost and performance to ensure that you select a pipe size that meets your project requirements while optimizing your budget.📷
Consultation and Expert Advice: If you are uncertain about the appropriate pipe size for your project, it is advisable to consult with experienced engineers, contractors, or MS pipe dealers. They can provide valuable insights and help you make an informed decision based on the specific needs and constraints of your project.
Final Thoughts:
Mild steel (MS) pipes have become indispensable in numerous industrial applications due to their versatility, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. In Gujarat, a state experiencing rapid industrial growth, Square pipe distributors in Vadodara serve as crucial suppliers, fulfilling the demand for quality pipes, including square pipes. The construction industry benefits from mild steel pipes for plumbing and structural applications, while the manufacturing sector relies on them for machinery fabrication. In agriculture, these pipes find extensive usage in irrigation systems and the construction of agricultural structures. Furthermore, the oil and gas industry heavily depends on MS pipes for efficient resource transportation. The widespread utilization of mild steel pipes underscores their importance in driving industrial development and infrastructure growth.

2023.05.30 08:12 PmMeYourFeels How do I configure the refind.conf and refind_linux.conf (and or config.yaml (for ZFSBootMenu)) files properly when installing Arch Linux with ZFS Native Encryption?

Hello,
As the title suggests, I am attempting to install OpenZFS with Native ZFS Encryption on a fresh installation of Arch Linux whilst utilizing rEFInd as my bootloader.
After carefully completing all the appropriate steps, exiting arch-chroot, unmounting all my ZFS datasets, exporting my ZFS pool, unmounting my ESP, powering off my system, and unplugging my USB containing my Arch Live ISO, I am greeted with the following error when I attempt to boot my system back up and boot into my fresh Arch Linux system with ZFS Native Encryption via selecting it on rEFInd:
 
Starting vmlinuz-linux Using load options 'zfs=zroot/sys/arch-0/root/arch-RWSmith
cryptdevice=/dev/disk/by-partlabel/Root-0-NVMe:zroot
rw
add_efi_memmap
initrd=boot\intel-ucode.img
initrd=boot\initramfs-%v.img
initrd=etc\zfs\zroot.key
initrd=\boot\initramfs-linux.img'
Invalid loader file!
Error: Not found while loading vmlinuz-linux
** Hit and key to continue **
 
What caught my attention was that there was an added back slash after "=" at "initrd=\boot\initramfs-linux.img'" on the last line, since the Arch Wiki (rEFInd 3.1.2 For manual boot stanzas) says to not use backslashes when adding initrd commands but I think this is ok since it is from before I began manually entering the multiple initrd= without the initial backslash in the /boot/efi/EFI/refind/refind.conf file.
 
However, I tried editing it in the terminal pressing tab twice on the keyboard with no avail no matter what I changed.
 
I made sure to incorporate the archzfs-linux-git, zfs-linux-git, zfs-linux-git-headers, zfs-utils-git packages into the Live Arch ISO when building the base system. Furthermore, I made sure that the Linux kernel and ZFS packages are compatible and supported with respect to each other. I was trying this with 6.3.1 and 6.3.2 (I made sure no package was not newer than as of Sunday, 21 May 2029). I understand they released updated ZFS packages for 6.3.4 today (Monday, 29 May 2023), but I have not had the chance to give a try yet.
 
I am installing the system on a single Samsung 950 PRO 512 GB NVMe SSD M.2 to get my feet wet with ZFS and comfortable enough before scaling up. I have two partitions, a 32-bit FAT 1G EF00 EFI System Partition mounted on /boot/efi, and the second BF00 partition utilizing the remaining 475.9G disk space for my ZFS Pool, zroot. I am utilizing ZFS Native Encryption on the second partition with the key saved in the the initramfs.
 
I am having difficulty setting up the correct and appropriate rEFInd configuration files: refind.conf which is located at /boot/efi/EFI/refind/refind.conf, and refind_linux.conf which is located at /boot/refind_linux.conf.
 
Here are my current configurations files for each respective rEFInd configuration file, respectively:
 
"Boot with standard options" \ "zfs=zroot/sys/arch-0/root/arch-RWSmith \ cryptdevice=/dev/disk/by-partlabel/Root-0-NVMe:zroot \ rw \ add_efi_memmap \ initrd=boot\intel-ucode.img \ initrd=boot\initramfs-%v.img \ initrd=etc\zfs\zroot.key loglevel=4" 
 
scanfor manual,nvme,zfs_keys scanfor_manual +zfs/*/*.efi scan_driver_dirs EFI/tools menuentry "Arch Linux" { icon /EFI/refind/icons/os_arch.png volume zroot loader /boot/vmlinuz-linux initrd /boot/initramfs-%v.img options "zfs=zroot/sys/arch-0/root/arch-RWSmith \ cryptdevice=/dev/disk/by-partlabel/Root-0-NVMe:zroot \ rw \ add_efi_memmap \ initrd=boot\intel-ucode.img \ initrd=boot\initramfs-%v.img \ initrd=etc\zfs\zroot.key" } 
 
I also tried using the suggestions I found online here that suggested the following:
 
Works for me:
 $ cat /boot/refind_linux.conf "Boot with standard options" "dozfs=force root=ZFS=SSD/ROOT/Debian rw quiet splash vt.handoff=7" "Boot to single-user mode" "dozfs=force root=ZFS=SSD/ROOT/Debian rw quiet splash vt.handoff=7 single" "Boot with minimal options" "dozfs=force root=ZFS=SSD/ROOT/Debian rw" 
or in refind.conf manual stanza
 menuentry "Akua Debian" { icon EFI/refind/icons/os_elementary.png volume ZFSROOT loader ROOT/Debian/@/vmlinuz initrd ROOT/Debian/@/initrd.img options "dozfs=force root=ZFS=SSD/ROOT/Debian rw quiet splash vt.handoff=7" } 
 
I had to fiddle with the paths - since the actual root is ROOT/Debian ... but it wouldn't work if I didn't add the /@/ path component. Those paths are symlinks into boot/ (latest version of kernel and initrd).
 
 zfs list ... SSD/ROOT 30.7G 61.7G 23K none SSD/ROOT/Debian 11.5G 61.7G 11.5G legacy SSD/ROOT/FreeBSD 949M 61.7G 949M /mnt/FreeBSD SSD/ROOT/Void 18.2G 61.7G 18.2G legacy ... # ls -l /boot/efi/EFI/refind/drivers_x64/ total 239 -rwx------ 1 root root 83222 Sep 16 18:13 btrfs_x64.efi -rwx------ 1 root root 69384 Sep 17 09:41 ext4_x64.efi -rwx------ 1 root root 90336 Apr 25 2018 zfs_x64.efi 
 
Zpool's name is SSD ... ZFSROOT is the partition name set with gdisk (gptfdisk).
Hope this helps.
 
I incorporated the suggestion into my /boot/efi/EFI/refind/refind.conf file with the appropriate changes:
 
menuentry "Arch Linux" { icon /EFI/refind/icons/os_arch.png volume zroot loader sys/arch-0/root/arch-RWSmith/@/vmlinuz-linux initrd sys/arch-0/root/arch-RWSmith/@/initramfs-%v.img options "zfs=zroot/sys/arch-0/root/arch-RWSmith \ cryptdevice=/dev/disk/by-partlabel/Root-0-NVMe:zroot \ rw \ add_efi_memmap \ initrd=boot\intel-ucode.img \ initrd=boot\initramfs-%v.img \ initrd=etc\zfs\zroot.key" } 
 
but it didn't help :( I tried other small tweaks in that configuration file but they also did not work. For example, instead of volume zroot, I I tried entering volume Root-0-NVMe.
 
I was originally trying to use rEFInd as my exclusive bootloader and utilizing the ZFS drivers/binaries from here. The drivefile I downloaded is zfs_x64.efi. I saved the zfs_x64.efi driver in multiple locations before and after installing rEFInd via running the refind-install script, even though one location should have sufficed. I saved a copy of zfs_x64.efi in /usshare/refind/drivers_x64, /boot/efi/EFI/refind, /boot/efi/EFI/refind/drivers, /boot/efi/EFI/, /boot/efi/EFI/refind/tools, /boot/efi/EFI/refind/tools/drivers, /boot, and /boot/drivers. I may have saved copies in other locations, just in case, but it also did not help.
 
I would like to highlight that /boot is located within the ZFS natively encrypted zrootpool.
 
I am pretty sure that that I am doing something incorrectly with respect to the configuration files for the rEFInd bootloader, but everything else should be correct. However, as I write this, I barely realized I did not use the following commands recommended from the "Usage" section from the aforementioned website where I downloaded the zfs_x64.efi driver file for rEFInd:
 
zfs_x64.efi map -r 
 
So this may be the problem, but I doubt it. I will try to enter the command next time I have access to my computer. The extra ZFS datasets involving /usr, /tmp, /srv, /opt, and /var may also be contributing my issues, since I am not sure if I mountd them correctly.
 
That said, after weeks of frustrating research and failed attempts of diagnosing and fixing the problem, I thought I would give ZFSBootMenu a try to see if it would fix all my issues, but it did not help either. As recommended by the Arch Wiki (Generate a ZFSBootMenu image), I set up my /etc/zfsbootmenu/config.yaml as thus:
 
Global: ManageImages: true BootMountPoint: /boot/efi DracutConfDir: /etc/zfsbootmenu/dracut.conf.d PreHooksDir: /etc/zfsbootmenu/generate-zbm.pre.d PostHooksDir: /etc/zfsbootmenu/generate-zbm.post.d InitCPIO: true InitCPIOConfig: /etc/zfsbootmenu/mkinitcpio.conf Components: ImageDir: /boot/efi/EFI/zbm Versions: 3 Enabled: false syslinux: Config: /boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg Enabled: false EFI: ImageDir: /boot/efi/EFI/zbm Versions: false Enabled: true Kernel: CommandLine: ro quiet loglevel=0 
 
I also try to incorporate some of the recommendations from the ZFSBootMenu wiki and also a different page on the wiki from the guide, but it was difficult to follow since Arch Linux utilizes mkinitcpio and not dracut.
 
Here is how I have my pacman.conf file:
nano /etc/pacman.conf:
 
Color VerbosePkgList ParallelDownloads = 10 ILoveCandy [core] SigLevel = PackageRequired Server = https://archive.archlinux.org/repos/2023/05/21/$repo/os/$arch [extra] SigLevel = PackageRequired Server = https://archive.archlinux.org/repos/2023/05/21/$repo/os/$arch [community] SigLevel = PackageRequired Server = https://archive.archlinux.org/repos/2023/05/21/$repo/os/$arch [multilib] SigLevel = PackageRequired Server = https://archive.archlinux.org/repos/2023/05/21/$repo/os/$arch [archzfs] SigLevel = Optional TrustAll Server = https://archzfs.com/$repo/$arch 
 
My mkinitcpio.conf file:
 
MODULES=(usbhid \ xhci_hcd \ nvidia \ nvidia_modeset \ nvidia_uvm \ nvidia_drm) FILES=(/etc/zfs/zroot.key) HOOKS=(base \ udev \ autodetect \ modconf \ block \ keyboard \ keymap \ encrypt \ zfs \ usr \ filesystems \ fsck shutdown) 
 
In my /etc/fstab file, I commented out all my ZFS datasets, and simply left the line for my ESP uncommented, as follows:
 
/dev/disk/by-partlabel/EFI-0-NVMe \ /boot/efi vfat \ rw,\ relatime,\ fmask=0022,\ codepage=437,\ iocharset=ascii,\ shortname=mixed,\ utf8,\ errors=remount-ro \ 0 2 
 
Before, instead of /dev/disk/by-partlabel/EFI-0-NVMe, I had UUID=####-####.
 
Here is my zpool:

I am not sure if the mountpoints I used for some are the ZFS datasets are appropriate and or are contributing to my issues of my bootloader not being able to detect my natively encrypted ZFS pool which holds my initramfs and vmlinuz-linux. Any suggestions would be welcomed. What is supposed to happen is that rEFInd should be automatically booting my natively ZFS encrypted Arch Linux system (if I don't select it first), prompt me to enter my password once before going forward with unlocking all my ZFS encrypted pool and datasets automatically and going forward with the typical boot process as if it were not encrypted.
 
I would like to highlight my original intention was to use rEFInd as my exclusive bootloader and not use ZFSBootMenu whatsoever. However, if I must use ZFSBootMenu in conjunction with rEFInd, then I will. I intend to to have this Samsung 950 PRO 512 GB NVMe SSD M.2 dedicated to my Arch Linux (and other Linux systems) and utilize my second Samsung 980 PRO 2 TB NVMe SSD M.2 for Windows but boot it from rEFInd which is installed on my 950 PRO.
 
Any tips or suggestions would be well appreciated. I probably did something very dumb or some silly mistake.
 
Here are all the commands I used during my install of Arch Linux with ZFS Native Encryption on a single Samsung 950 PRO 512 GB NVMe SSD M.2; I did my best to do things in a particular order such that there would be little to no conflicts:

Thank you for taking the time to read my wall of text. I have spent months researching and reading before I even considered attempting this project and or seeking help. I even attempted to utilize ChatGPT, and although it was helpful, it was not enough for what I was attempting to achieve.

Chronologica's Drag Race Season 4: Episode 6- World Snatch Game
Light skin, dark skin, my Asian persuasion
Granny gives an expressive face, before twirling onto the floor with a wink and a smile as the judges grin.
Aguacate: “GRANNY?!”
Yeah, that sexy, sexy, sexy
Hideyoshi jumps around, landing into a split as he shimmies and shakes his body in furious fashion.
Strum me like a guitar, blow out my amplifier
Granny begins to exhale and inhale in an overly expressive fashion, playing a fake guitar as Chronologica chuckles.
I'm gonna feedback, feedback, oh
Hideyoshi flips into the air and lands into a death drop, before raising their hands in the air to cartwheel.
Jaslene Bangus: “Hideyoshi is doing… far too much. He can dance. Wow.” Jaslene shrugs.
When you hear some feedback, keep going take it higher
Granny points to the roof, and then signs a request for the people to turn up the song louder, before fist bumping in humorous fashion.
Feedback, feedback
Hideyoshi drops to the floor, as Granny crosses her hands and smiles as the song ends.

Granny Gorgeous, Shantay you stay.
“Thank you.” Granny looks at Hideyoshi with a smile. “I wish you well.”
Toyotomi Hideyoshi.
Hideyoshi sighs.
Thank you for showing your heart and soul. I wish you luck. Now… sashay away.
“I do appreciate you giving me this chance.” Hideyoshi clutches his chest. “Off I go.”
Hideyoshi laughs as he struts off. “Oh, I SWEAR if the third warlord WINS…”
Toyotomi Hideyoshi: “I do wish- I did a lot more than I did. But, I am happy to have fought, to have lived and did it.” Hideyoshi smiles. “Nobuna, I hope you feel proud.”
Lipstick Message: “Woo! What a journey. I wish you all the most slayful journey. Act defiant. CONQUER THE WORLD!”

The racers walk into the werkroom.
“Hideyoshi!” Aguacate yells, frowning before smiling. “...Actually, I’m not sad.”
Granny Gorgeous: “I just lip synced for my life. And wow, that was… terrifying.”
“Woo! What a journey. I wish you all the most slayful journey. Act defiant. CONQUER THE WORLD!” Granny smiles.
Haja rolls her eyes.
Haja Hubiani: “Go fuck yourself, Hideyoshi.”
“Okay… and you’re gone, so how did that work?” Haja looks at the mirror.
“Facts.” Jaslene smirks.
Fiore giggles.
Everyone sits down.
“I do want to say, congratulations to my sister, Ms Fiore…” Jaslene smirks, as everyone claps. “For winning her first challenge!”
The racers clap, as Fiore giggles.
Fiore Stravaganza: “I feel so good. I knew I deserved this, but the validation was nice.”
“Totally agree.” Crayola smiles. “I did actually expect Ms Raiz to win though with the caliber she brought.” Crayola responds, looking at Yasmin with a smile.
Fiore looks annoyed.
“You being here has changed lives. I do think you were really, gorgeously baring your heart, and showing world power. You should be proud of yourself.” Crayola grins.
“Thank you.” Yasmin clutches her chest with a grin.
“It was great to see your queer joy.” Omari nods.
“For me, I wish I did win…” Haja shrugs. “But I did really enjoy what you delivered.”
Yasmin blushes.
Fiore Stravaganza: “Should I go walk into a ditch?”
“Why are you all so shocked that I won the challenge?” Fiore asks.
The others look awkwardly, as Jaslene smirks.
“I put together a great shoot, I look amazing, and truly… you’re underestimating me.” Fiore says.
Crayola shakes her head. “Well darling, we didn’t mean-”
“I know what you mean.” Fiore says, coldly.
Aguacate looks into the camera with a kooky face.
“I want to say- I’m here, and I hope you see me now.” Fiore smiles, with a hint of shade.
“We’ve always seen you girl, you’re gorgeous!” Zazu grins.
“Mhm.” Fiore gets up.
Fiore Stravaganza: “I am more than just gorgeous, I am Fiore Stravaganza and I am a superstar.”
“Those girls have no idea the power of us AE girls.” Jaslene says, as the two de-drag.
Fiore Stravaganza: “I, singularly, know what I can do, even if these girls don’t. They will underestimate me for the last time.”
“I’m so ready to keep showing them up. I-” Fiore smiles. “Mean us.”
Jaslene winks.
Fiore Stravaganza: “So know this. I’m coming… and they all… better watch out.”
“Period!” Jaslene yells.
Fiore Stravaganza: “This is the reign of Italy, and we’re not giving up.”
~
The Next Day, Yasmin starts handing out plates.
“Today, on the menu, was requested by Zazu…” Yasmin smiles.
“SALAD!” Zazu grins.
“...You asked for salad?” Jaslene looks at Zazu.
“I love a salad.” Zazu smiles. “Well, there’s a fruit salad, there’s a pear salad-”
“A pear is a fruit.” Omari chuckles.
“I know, but when you ask for a fruit salad, it’s not the same as a pear salad, you know?” Zazu nods.
Everyone looks confused.
“...I get it.” Aguacate fistbumps Zazu.
King Omari Star: “Not the fist bump.”
You’ve got drag mail!
Don’t be spectacular. Be SNATCHTACULAR!
“OH MY GOD!” Aguacate yells.
Yasmin drops her bowl. “YES!”
It’s Drag Time!
Hi Racers! This is it…
Racers, for this week’s challenge, it’s time for the SNATCH GAME!
Everyone cheers.
For this week’s maxi challenge, it’s time for you to put your celebrity impersonation skills to the test in the Snatch Game! Impersonate a favorite celebrity, show off your skills and MAKE ME LAUGH!
Aguacate: “I am so excited for this challenge. I know what to do, I know what I do well- and I am ready for this.”

The racers sit around the tables and start chatting.
“So, what are we all doing for the snatch gaaaame?” Aguacate asks.
“Well, I’ve decided I’m going outside of my child-friendly box.” Crayola says, with pride in her voice.
“How so?” Omari asks.
“I’m doing Elmo.” Crayola winks.
The others look at Crayola.
King Omari Star: “Oh lord.”
“Stepping outside your child-friendly box onto sesame street?” Omari winks.
“No!” Crayola chuckles. “I want to surprise people. It’s a take you can feel like will be at first, child friendly. But I want to shock with something unexpected. An X-rated take on it.”
“They’re gonna sue your ass.” Aguacate laughs.
“Noooooo!” Crayola chuckles. “My dear, you don’t get it.”
Crayola Boxx: “I feel like this is a smart approach. They may not see the vision, but I do. I feel comfortable and excited for this.”
“I am the one and only Nelson Mandela.” Omari grins.
Zazu gasps. “THE Nelson Mandela? He’s a sacred figure!”
“Didn’t stop your-” Aguacate starts before being shushed.
“This could be seen as controversial, but I believe all people can be parodied- and the real Nelson Mendela would take this with love and laughter. And I will be making prison jokes.” Omari says.
Zazu looks worriedly. “Are you sure you can do it well?”
Omari smirks. “Look at my drag and you can see the answer.”
Aguacate cackles.
“I have decided to do Betty White.” Granny smiles.
Aguacate looks into the camera.
Aguacate: “Must I say more?”
“Ms Raiz, you’re a comedian.. Who are you doing?” Aguacate purses her lips.
Yasmin takes out a big knife.
Aguacate screams.
“Padma Lakshimi, my deary-diddly-do!” Yasmin holds the knife in the air. “The top chef.”
Yasmin Raiz: “I am also a top chef.” Yasmin giggles. “JKDSNAMDNSAMDAS!!”
“This is fun.” Aguacate nods.
“Charlize Theron for me.” Zazu grins.
Aguacate makes another awkward face.
“I wanted to do a Pakistani Celebrity, but I’ve decided… Priyanka Chopra is a better option.” Haja says.
“I’m… a bit surprised at this.” Yasmin looks at Haja.
“How come?” Haja asks.
Yasmin makes a confused face. “She’s not the most Pakistani friendly. Her comments…”
Haja blinks twice before responding “I mean, let’s not get into geopolitical conflict.” Haja says. “It’s not worth it.”
Yasmin makes a face.
Yasmin Raiz: “Oh, she’s not politically active, clearly. Her face just went blank.”
“I think this is a good choice.” Haja responds. “And I want to show what I can do.”
“Okay..” Yasmin smiles awkwardly.
“So many good choices…” Aguacate grins. “I am doing Cantinflas.”
“Who is that?” Granny asks.
“ The ICONIC Mexican comedian. He is a big inspiration for my drag and I will be going absolutely crazy with him. He was a psychopath like me!” Aguacate grins.
Crayola Boxx: “I cannot tell if that is a joke or not.”
“Well, I cannot wait to see you all give your best.” Aguacate laughs.
“You didn’t ask me and Jaslene.” Fiore looks at Aguacate.
“Oh, pretty girls?” Aguacate winks.
“I mean, I am doing Super B, Bilma, from the 2002 hit movie Super B. Because I can play a ditzy, sexy, female heroine.” Jaslene looks over. “And I know how to do it well.”
Aguacate shrugs.
“And I’m doing Donatella Versace.” Fiore adds.
“So, pretty girls.” Aguacate laughs.
“And you’re doing someone ugly, like you?” Jaslene looks over.
Aguacate laughs.
“I know I can do this.” Fiore looks at Jaslene. “Donatella is a good choice.”
“I’m sure it is, babe.” Jaslene nods. “Let’s prac-”
“I think I’m going to focus solo for a moment.” Fiore smiles. “If that’s okay?”
“Oh yeah, sure.” Jaslene nods.
Fiore Stravaganza: “I am not leaving anything to chance this week.”

Chronologica goes to visit the racers.
Zazu Nova!
“Hiiiiiii!” Zazu waves.
How do you feel about the Snatch Game?
“Oh, this is going to be fun.” Zazu grins. “Is my thought.”
Who are you portraying?
“Charlize Theron aka one of my idols.” Zazu smiles. “She’s pretty, and I will talk about like how her mom killed her dad….”
Chronologica’s eyes bulge.
Zazu Nova: “Charlize Theron is a WARRIOR.”
But how are you going to make it funny?
“Well, I will have a strong…” Zazu talks. “South African Accent… and I will joke about my roles… and it will be fabulous.”
Okay, I don’t see it right now, but I want you to work on it, and really showcase how you can.
Zazu Nova: “I feel confident.” Zazu grins.

Fiore Stravaganza!
“Ms Logica.” Fiore smiles.
You won last week. Thus far, everyone who has won… has lip synced the following week. Do you plan on repeating this pattern?
“God no, I’m better than that.”
Chronologica chuckles.
Who are you doing for the Snatch Game?
“Donatella Versace.” Fiore smirks.
Tell me why.
“Because she is a diva. She’s blonde, she’s pretty, she’s rich, and she’s a little bit of a bitch.”
Chronologica grins.
“I also think she’s witty. She will respond and bite and reflect at this foolishness around her.” Fiore grins.
What is the foolishness here?
“Some of these girls are clowns.” Fiore shrugs.
I don’t think you’re entirely wrong.
Fiore smirks.
I want you to really keep driving on this bitchy, fun flair. I think it’s a smart choice, and I look forward to seeing it.
“Thank you.” Fiore nods.

Hello, Haja!
“Hi Chronologica.” Haja smiles.
Now, you’ve been really under the radar, thus far.
Haja nods.
Haja Hubiani: “Thanks, Chronologica.”
What are you going to do this week to show off?
“I am going to be Priyanka Chopra.” Haja nods. “It’s an excuse to show off me, and to be a famous actress.”
I’m surprised you’re not doing a fashion diva, or something fun- not what I expected?
“In a good way?” Haja winks.
Chronologica shrugs.
Haja looks slightly nervous.
I want you to know this week, I need you to do something. For good or bad, everyone else here has had a moment I can see shining. I’m going to need you to do really good.
Haja nods. “Okay.”
Good luck… and don’t fuck it up.
Haja exhales.
~
As they get ready, Yasmin turns to Aguacate and Crayola.
“I feel like this is going to be a fun snatch game.” Yasmin grins.
“I do really agree.” Aguacate smiles.
“Same.” Crayola nods. “For me, it’s an opportunity to show off another side of me.”
“Well, you know, I would’ve expected like Elmo, you’ve had a hand up you.” Aguacate looks at Crayola.
Yasmin gasps, as Crayola looks speechless.
“Aguacate, you can’t say THAT!” Crayola looks shocked.
Aguacate: “If you can’t deal with a fisti-” Aguacate looks into the camera. “How are you supposed to be a dirty Elmo?!”
“No, I do agree.” Aguacate nods. “Especially as this is a meaningful one for me.”
Yasmin and Crayola look surprised as Aguacate speaks normally.
“How so?” Crayola asks.
Aguacate's eyes light up, brimming with excitement. She takes a deep breath and begins to share her story.
"Well, you see, growing up, I had a special connection with Cantinflas." Aguacate grins, as if reflecting. "I used to watch his movies with my Abuelo, and it became our little tradition. Cantinflas had this incredible ability to make people laugh and bring joy to their lives, including mine."
“That is lovely.” Crayola smiles.
Aguacate pauses, before grinning. "You see, I come from a humble background. We didn't have much, and life wasn't always easy. But Cantinflas taught me that laughter could be a form of resilience, a way to rise above adversity. He inspired me to embrace my own unique quirks and use them to make others smile. And I cannot wait to show myself off and SLAY this.”
Haja shuffles in her seat nearby.
Yasmin Raiz smiles. "Aguacate, that's beautiful. Your love and admiration for Cantinflas shine through your every word. I feel the same about… cooking.”
Aguacate and Crayola turn to look at Yasmin.
"Cooking?" Aguacate raises an eyebrow. "Tell me more, Yasmin."
“Well, for as long as I can remember, cooking has been my ultimate form of self-expression. It's not just about creating delicious dishes; it's about infusing love, creativity, and laughter into every meal I make."
“I do love to eat, too.” Crayola giggles.
Yasmin smiles. "As I grew older, I realized that cooking allowed me to combine two of my greatest passions: comedy and food. I began experimenting with different flavors, textures, and ingredients, infusing dishes with unexpected twists and humorous presentations."
“So, where’s my invite to the dinner party?” Aguacate responds.
“Soon.” Yasmin smiles. “Padma Lakshmi is that. I feel excited to show it, and embrace it.”
“I love how…” Crayola beams. “We’re all so excited. We know we can do this, show ourselves and provide a fantastic snatch game.”
Haja Hubiani: “They’re all EXCITED. And I feel stressed. And…”
“I can’t do this.” Haja says to herself. “I’m out.”
Without another word, Haja walks out.
“...Okay?” Aguacate looks at the others.
“Is she okay?” Granny responds.
“Probably just needed a moment.” Crayola smiles. “We all do.”
Outside, Haja sits alone.
“I’m frustrated.” Haja talks to the camera. “I feel as if like, I feel like- I haven’t quite hit the mark. I know this is a big challenge. I want to show myself, I want-” Haja exhales, looking around.


"I thought... I thought someone would follow me." Haja whispers to herself, her voice trembling. She looks back at the door.. but the doorway remains empty.
Haja’s eyes well with tears. “Okay.”
Haja continues to look at the door as Aguacate’s laughter booms.


Haja looks at the door.



"I can do this." Haja mutters to herself. "I didn't come this far to give up now. I have a voice, a story to share, and I won't let my fears silence me."
Haja gets up.
“Challenge time.”

Chronologica's Drag Race Season 4: Episode 6- World Snatch Game
Light skin, dark skin, my Asian persuasion
Granny gives an expressive face, before twirling onto the floor with a wink and a smile as the judges grin.
Aguacate: “GRANNY?!”
Yeah, that sexy, sexy, sexy
Hideyoshi jumps around, landing into a split as he shimmies and shakes his body in furious fashion.
Strum me like a guitar, blow out my amplifier
Granny begins to exhale and inhale in an overly expressive fashion, playing a fake guitar as Chronologica chuckles.
I'm gonna feedback, feedback, oh
Hideyoshi flips into the air and lands into a death drop, before raising their hands in the air to cartwheel.
Jaslene Bangus: “Hideyoshi is doing… far too much. He can dance. Wow.” Jaslene shrugs.
When you hear some feedback, keep going take it higher
Granny points to the roof, and then signs a request for the people to turn up the song louder, before fist bumping in humorous fashion.
Feedback, feedback
Hideyoshi drops to the floor, as Granny crosses her hands and smiles as the song ends.

Granny Gorgeous, Shantay you stay.
“Thank you.” Granny looks at Hideyoshi with a smile. “I wish you well.”
Toyotomi Hideyoshi.
Hideyoshi sighs.
Thank you for showing your heart and soul. I wish you luck. Now… sashay away.
“I do appreciate you giving me this chance.” Hideyoshi clutches his chest. “Off I go.”
Hideyoshi laughs as he struts off. “Oh, I SWEAR if the third warlord WINS…”
Toyotomi Hideyoshi: “I do wish- I did a lot more than I did. But, I am happy to have fought, to have lived and did it.” Hideyoshi smiles. “Nobuna, I hope you feel proud.”
Lipstick Message: “Woo! What a journey. I wish you all the most slayful journey. Act defiant. CONQUER THE WORLD!”

The racers walk into the werkroom.
“Hideyoshi!” Aguacate yells, frowning before smiling. “...Actually, I’m not sad.”
Granny Gorgeous: “I just lip synced for my life. And wow, that was… terrifying.”
“Woo! What a journey. I wish you all the most slayful journey. Act defiant. CONQUER THE WORLD!” Granny smiles.
Haja rolls her eyes.
Haja Hubiani: “Go fuck yourself, Hideyoshi.”
“Okay… and you’re gone, so how did that work?” Haja looks at the mirror.
“Facts.” Jaslene smirks.
Fiore giggles.
Everyone sits down.
“I do want to say, congratulations to my sister, Ms Fiore…” Jaslene smirks, as everyone claps. “For winning her first challenge!”
The racers clap, as Fiore giggles.
Fiore Stravaganza: “I feel so good. I knew I deserved this, but the validation was nice.”
“Totally agree.” Crayola smiles. “I did actually expect Ms Raiz to win though with the caliber she brought.” Crayola responds, looking at Yasmin with a smile.
Fiore looks annoyed.
“You being here has changed lives. I do think you were really, gorgeously baring your heart, and showing world power. You should be proud of yourself.” Crayola grins.
“Thank you.” Yasmin clutches her chest with a grin.
“It was great to see your queer joy.” Omari nods.
“For me, I wish I did win…” Haja shrugs. “But I did really enjoy what you delivered.”
Yasmin blushes.
Fiore Stravaganza: “Should I go walk into a ditch?”
“Why are you all so shocked that I won the challenge?” Fiore asks.
The others look awkwardly, as Jaslene smirks.
“I put together a great shoot, I look amazing, and truly… you’re underestimating me.” Fiore says.
Crayola shakes her head. “Well darling, we didn’t mean-”
“I know what you mean.” Fiore says, coldly.
Aguacate looks into the camera with a kooky face.
“I want to say- I’m here, and I hope you see me now.” Fiore smiles, with a hint of shade.
“We’ve always seen you girl, you’re gorgeous!” Zazu grins.
“Mhm.” Fiore gets up.
Fiore Stravaganza: “I am more than just gorgeous, I am Fiore Stravaganza and I am a superstar.”
“Those girls have no idea the power of us AE girls.” Jaslene says, as the two de-drag.
Fiore Stravaganza: “I, singularly, know what I can do, even if these girls don’t. They will underestimate me for the last time.”
“I’m so ready to keep showing them up. I-” Fiore smiles. “Mean us.”
Jaslene winks.
Fiore Stravaganza: “So know this. I’m coming… and they all… better watch out.”
“Period!” Jaslene yells.
Fiore Stravaganza: “This is the reign of Italy, and we’re not giving up.”
~
The Next Day, Yasmin starts handing out plates.
“Today, on the menu, was requested by Zazu…” Yasmin smiles.
“SALAD!” Zazu grins.
“...You asked for salad?” Jaslene looks at Zazu.
“I love a salad.” Zazu smiles. “Well, there’s a fruit salad, there’s a pear salad-”
“A pear is a fruit.” Omari chuckles.
“I know, but when you ask for a fruit salad, it’s not the same as a pear salad, you know?” Zazu nods.
Everyone looks confused.
“...I get it.” Aguacate fistbumps Zazu.
King Omari Star: “Not the fist bump.”
You’ve got drag mail!
Don’t be spectacular. Be SNATCHTACULAR!
“OH MY GOD!” Aguacate yells.
Yasmin drops her bowl. “YES!”
It’s Drag Time!
Hi Racers! This is it…
Racers, for this week’s challenge, it’s time for the SNATCH GAME!
Everyone cheers.
For this week’s maxi challenge, it’s time for you to put your celebrity impersonation skills to the test in the Snatch Game! Impersonate a favorite celebrity, show off your skills and MAKE ME LAUGH!
Aguacate: “I am so excited for this challenge. I know what to do, I know what I do well- and I am ready for this.”
~
The racers sit around the tables and start chatting.
“So, what are we all doing for the snatch gaaaame?” Aguacate asks.
“Well, I’ve decided I’m going outside of my child-friendly box.” Crayola says, with pride in her voice.
“How so?” Omari asks.
“I’m doing Elmo.” Crayola winks.
The others look at Crayola.
King Omari Star: “Oh lord.”
“Stepping outside your child-friendly box onto sesame street?” Omari winks.
“No!” Crayola chuckles. “I want to surprise people. It’s a take you can feel like will be at first, child friendly. But I want to shock with something unexpected. An X-rated take on it.”
“They’re gonna sue your ass.” Aguacate laughs.
“Noooooo!” Crayola chuckles. “My dear, you don’t get it.”
Crayola Boxx: “I feel like this is a smart approach. They may not see the vision, but I do. I feel comfortable and excited for this.”
“I am the one and only Nelson Mandela.” Omari grins.
Zazu gasps. “THE Nelson Mandela? He’s a sacred figure!”
“Didn’t stop your-” Aguacate starts before being shushed.
“This could be seen as controversial, but I believe all people can be parodied- and the real Nelson Mendela would take this with love and laughter. And I will be making prison jokes.” Omari says.
Zazu looks worriedly. “Are you sure you can do it well?”
Omari smirks. “Look at my drag and you can see the answer.”
Aguacate cackles.
“I have decided to do Betty White.” Granny smiles.
Aguacate looks into the camera.
Aguacate: “Must I say more?”
“Ms Raiz, you’re a comedian.. Who are you doing?” Aguacate purses her lips.
Yasmin takes out a big knife.
Aguacate screams.
“Padma Lakshimi, my deary-diddly-do!” Yasmin holds the knife in the air. “The top chef.”
Yasmin Raiz: “I am also a top chef.” Yasmin giggles. “JKDSNAMDNSAMDAS!!”
“This is fun.” Aguacate nods.
“Charlize Theron for me.” Zazu grins.
Aguacate makes another awkward face.
“I wanted to do a Pakistani Celebrity, but I’ve decided… Priyanka Chopra is a better option.” Haja says.
“I’m… a bit surprised at this.” Yasmin looks at Haja.
“How come?” Haja asks.
Yasmin makes a confused face. “She’s not the most Pakistani friendly. Her comments…”
Haja blinks twice before responding “I mean, let’s not get into geopolitical conflict.” Haja says. “It’s not worth it.”
Yasmin makes a face.
Yasmin Raiz: “Oh, she’s not politically active, clearly. Her face just went blank.”
“I think this is a good choice.” Haja responds. “And I want to show what I can do.”
“Okay..” Yasmin smiles awkwardly.
“So many good choices…” Aguacate grins. “I am doing Cantinflas.”
“Who is that?” Granny asks.
“ The ICONIC Mexican comedian. He is a big inspiration for my drag and I will be going absolutely crazy with him. He was a psychopath like me!” Aguacate grins.
Crayola Boxx: “I cannot tell if that is a joke or not.”
“Well, I cannot wait to see you all give your best.” Aguacate laughs.
“You didn’t ask me and Jaslene.” Fiore looks at Aguacate.
“Oh, pretty girls?” Aguacate winks.
“I mean, I am doing Super B, Bilma, from the 2002 hit movie Super B. Because I can play a ditzy, sexy, female heroine.” Jaslene looks over. “And I know how to do it well.”
Aguacate shrugs.
“And I’m doing Donatella Versace.” Fiore adds.
“So, pretty girls.” Aguacate laughs.
“And you’re doing someone ugly, like you?” Jaslene looks over.
Aguacate laughs.
“I know I can do this.” Fiore looks at Jaslene. “Donatella is a good choice.”
“I’m sure it is, babe.” Jaslene nods. “Let’s prac-”
“I think I’m going to focus solo for a moment.” Fiore smiles. “If that’s okay?”
“Oh yeah, sure.” Jaslene nods.
Fiore Stravaganza: “I am not leaving anything to chance this week.”

2023.05.29 20:31 rKeeling75 Another RC-500 question: saving loops when changing to another memory slot

Problem: Loops not being saved as I expected.
Details I have an RC-500 because I like the extra buttons but I don't really use track 2. No problem, I remapped the buttons as followed:
Button 1: Track 1 P/S Button 2: Track 2 S/C Button 3: Rhythm Start/Stop Button 4: Memory Inc Button 5: Memory Dec
(Button 4&5 via a FS-7)
Everything works great. I have it set so I can start my rhythm before my loop , I can record, play, overdub, stop, undo, bring the drums in and out, etc... All is happy.
Sort of...
Say I lay something down on Memory 1, hit Memory 2, and when Memory 1 finishes its loop it heads over the memory 2. Great! Then when I select Memory 1, Memory 2 finishes its loop and heads back to memory 1 ... just rhythm. No loop! My loop on memory 1 is gone. Head back to 2... its gone as well. It seems that as soon as I change memory slots the recorded loop is gone.
I can force it to save it via the menu but this is counter intuitive to me, I would assume that the 'Write' is only for long term storage (i.e. only when I power down the unit), but in a live looping situation my expectation is that it will hold the loop on the slot so long as it is powered up.
I'd like to be able to lay down an intro on 1. And then pop over to 2 for a verse, and 3 for a bridge, back to 2, over to 4, etc, etc. All without having to lean over and issue a write command (or giving up any more buttons for a dedicated save).
I'm guessing I'm doing something very wrong. Any advice?

2023.05.29 16:30 kcr141 Searching For Common Threads 9: The Dark Forest

First Previous Next
Esen:
When we landed at the primary research site, it was quiet at last. As I unstrapped myself and began to stand up, I started forming a list in my mind of all the tasks that would need to be completed.
As a first order of business, I walked over to the other side of the flight deck and began to inspect the hull breach. The hole that had been formed in the side of our ship was smooth on the inside. There was no evidence of any tearing or fragmenting, rather, the metal appeared to have been melted.
“You know,” I said, “I don’t think this was from kinetics fire. It looks like a laser did this.”
“It was a laser,” Tsavolyn replied. “I could see the beam.”
“I mean, it makes sense ‘cause we were moving away from them so quickly.”
At this, commander Taylor spoke up:
“That reminds me, did I hear you correctly when you said that those attackers were pulling twelve G’s?”
“Yeah,” I answered.
“They… that’s not… they can’t do that, that should be lethal!”
“I know,” I said. “Maybe those two ships never had a crew to begin with, however, they weren’t acting like they were computer controlled either. Honestly, I’m even more impressed they didn’t damage their warp drives or stall their reactors pulling those kinds of maneuvers.”
“Unfortunately, we’ll have to worry about that later,” commander Taylor responded, “right now, we need to get our own drive back in order.”
The three of us began to make our way down to the cargo hold. Once there, I found the nearest control panel and instructed the cargo bay doors to open. Sunlight flooded into the compartment.
The first thing that jumped out at me was that, unlike Earth’s spaceports, our landing pad seemed to be entirely makeshift. The bay doors led directly out onto a platform surrounded by guard rails and supported by a steel lattice structure. From there, a set of stairs connected the platform to the concrete floor below. Besides the platform in front of us, there was a concerning lack of service structures.
Then, I saw the rest of the world beyond the guard railing. The human-built structures gave way to rolling grassy hills with forests and mountains visible in the distance. From our vantage point, an abandoned alien city could be seen as well. The city was the reason for the outpost’s construction and was also the only obvious indicator that this was not Earth.
“It may not be quite what you’re used to,” commander Taylor said, “but according to the outpost’s inventory, everything you need should be here.”
I went over my mental checklist again before speaking:
“Alright. So… I need to swap out proto-segments three, seven, nine, fourteen, and… eighteen. We should probably start with three since that one’s kinda the whole reason we landed at all.”
“What is special about segment three?” Tsavolyn asked.
“Proto-segment three is all the way inside of the warp drive’s primary ring,” I answered. “We experimented with other designs that were easier to service, but none could match the efficiency of our current approach. So unfortunately, in order to get to segments one through four, you have to partition them and extract the surrounding buffer. It takes special machines to do this because the drive becomes inoperable if the buffer leaks out.”
“Plus,” I added, “that stuff is toxic and it aerosolizes at standard pressure.”
“We didn’t pack our own equipment because it’s very heavy and we wanted to stay maneuverable in order to give ourselves the best chance of survival,” Taylor said plainly.
The three of us climbed down to the ground and began our preparations.
“I’m going to need some way to get up top to the primary ring,” I remarked.
“There should be an articulated lift here somewhere,” commander Taylor responded. “I can get that set up while you go find any other tools you might need.”
“Alright,” I said. The three of us parted, Tsavolyn traveling with Taylor while I headed in the opposite direction towards the edge of the spaceport. The researchers had set up a collection of temporary shelters and storage units. These structures were built out of flexible plastic supported by metal framework, they were more like habitats than buildings.
Once inside one of the shelters, it was obvious that the outpost was abandoned in a hurry. A variety of tools and electronics lay strewn about on top of a foldable table along with a half eaten bowl of oatmeal and a tablet.
Out of curiosity, I picked up the tablet and powered it on. When the screen lit up a dim orange color and displayed alien text, I realized that the device was of tynaksian design; evidence of the expedition’s cooperative nature.
After turning the tablet off, I set it back where I found it and then got to work. I managed to find a small tool bag and began packing it with everything I would need. I took a set of wrenches, a small flashlight, and a multitude of powered screwdrivers. I also packed a set of pliers along with extra bolts and wires in case any got lost or damaged. As I was searching through various storage drawers, I caught a glint of something gold and shiny. I reached in and produced a roll of PI tape. Remembering the hull breach on the flight deck, I packed the tape as well.
The next couple hours were spent tediously replacing each of the modified warp drive components. Accessing proto-segment three was a delicate process that involved attaching several cables and hoses to the drive’s primary ring, engaging multiple safety mechanisms, and then having commander Taylor activate the extraction machine from the ground.
After segment three, the rest were fairly straight forward. I would simply unbolt a panel somewhere, replace the proto-segment, and then put the panel back. When that was done, I went back inside the ship and used the PI tape to patch up the hole in the side of the flight deck. I also realized, upon further inspection, that the laser beam responsible for the hull breach had continued on its path and damaged one of the control interfaces.
To prevent any complications, I disconnected the damaged interface and then began a diagnostic on each of the components that had been replaced. After that, I headed back outside, finding commander Taylor and Tsavolyn admiring the alien landscape.
“I’m running a diagnostic on each segment,” I told them. “Once that’s done, we should be good to go!”
“Alright,” Taylor responded, “let me know when—”
As he spoke, the commander turned around to face me before stopping mid sentence.
After a moment of silence, I realized that Taylor was staring at something behind me. Cautiously, I turned around and followed his gaze.
An alien stared back at me. Their skin looked like it was composed of very small scales, so they definitely weren’t tynaksian. Looking directly at them, their scales were a crisp white color, however, when the sunlight hit them at an angle, they took on a faint violet hue. The alien wore a strange cyan-colored uniform inscribed with markings that were barely visible, and they seemed to be carrying a small crate full of electronics.
Since they weren’t tynaksian, that currently only left one option:
This was a raknin, probably one from the enemy fleet.
As soon as I had that realization, the alien dropped the crate they were holding and bolted in the opposite direction.
“Hey, wait!” commander Taylor shouted before taking off after them.
The raknin had already reached the other end of the launch pad by the time I recovered from my initial shock. I too began to chase after the commander and our alien visitor with Tsavolyn following close behind.
The concrete floor ended and our chase continued through the tall, lush grass. The ground grew steeper and before I knew it, the raknin and commander Taylor had both disappeared over the top of a hill.
Reaching the top of the hill myself revealed both a large valley as well as the alien’s intended destination. A raknin spacecraft sat tucked away at the bottom of the valley, concealed previously by the surrounding hills.
Taylor was gaining on the fleeing alien, and as they neared the bottom of the hill, the commander leapt forward. He collided with the raknin and the two of them tumbled the rest of the way down.
The alien quickly recovered and continued running. Commander Taylor took longer to get his bearings allowing me and Tsavolyn to catch up with him.
From there, it was a dead sprint to the spaceship.
When they reached the base of the rocket, the raknin scaled a ladder leading up to the cargo hold.
We weren’t far behind.
When I made my way to the top, officially boarding the alien craft, I was greeted with the sight of commander Taylor tackling the alien to the ground.
The alien tried to escape but couldn’t. As they struggled, the commander managed to look at me and shout:
“Tape! Tape! Give me the Tape!”
Tape?
And then I remembered: I still had the polyimide tape!
I opened the tool bag and retrieved the roll of tape I had used to repair the hull breach. I tossed the roll to Taylor and then helped hold the raknin down while he restrained them.
Once the alien was immobile, I stood up and took a step backwards. As I did so, my hand collided with a hard surface and I cried out in pain.
I turned around to see what I had hit, but there was only empty space in front of me. Confused, I looked down at the back of my hand.
There were burn marks.
Tsavolyn:
While Esen and Taylor were handling the fleeing raknin, I had the wherewithal to check if there were any other crewmates aboard the rocket.
I had been on a couple of raknin spacecraft before, but this one was different. It was like the whole interior had been emptied out and replaced with a strange metal lattice. This lattice was densely packed with hundreds of some kind of tetrahedron-shaped device. These devices covered every wall and ceiling. Even the floors were nothing more than a thin metal grating with more of the strange instrument underneath.
It looked like this vessel had been turned into some kind of detector array. I wasn’t sure what kind of array this was or why this had been done, but I figured the flight deck might hold some answers.
Besides us, the ship turned out to be empty; the raknin we encountered had flown here alone. When I reached the bridge, the first thing I noticed was a message displayed on several of the control interfaces warning of damage to the electrical systems.
I picked one of the control interfaces and sat down. As I was in the process of opening the diagnostics menu, Esen came in.
“Hey, do you think you can communicate with our new friend?”
“Probably,” I answered, “but I can’t guarantee that she’ll cooperate”
“I’m hoping they’re at least willing to tell us what they have down in the cargo hold,” He said.
“If you’re referring to all the devices on the walls, I can probably figure that out from here. I have some experience with these ships from before our falling out with the raknins. If I open the diagnostics interface, it will list every subsystem on the ship’s network.”
“Yeah, finding out what those are would also be helpful,” Esen said.
“Also? I thought the hold was otherwise empty.”
“Oh no,” Esen replied, “there’s definitely something in the middle of the cargo hold. We’re not sure what it is because it’s invisible.”
“Invisible?”
“Yeah,” he answered. “It’s surrounded by some kind of cloaking field. Also, the field isn’t safe to touch.”
Esen held up his hand revealing burn marks on both sides.
“Okay, that’s strange. Wait, you touched it twice?” I asked.
“Science has to be repeatable,” he said with a chuckle.
“Okay, I have the diagnostics menu up. It looks like they have… actually I’m not sure how to say this in English. It’s a type of particle, low mass, no charge, emitted during nuclear processes…”
“It’s not in the nucleus of atoms, right?” Esen asked.
“That’s right,” I answered.
“You’re probably thinking of neutrinos then.”
“That sounds correct,” I responded. “In that case, this ship has an array of neutrino detectors.”
“That’s probably what the things on the wall are for then,” Esen said.
“That would be my guess as well. Okay, this I don’t recognize.”
“What is it,” he asked.
“It’s a system listed as ‘frame capture,’ and I have no idea what that means.” I said.
“Could that have to do with our strange object?”
“Maybe?” I answered. “I’m not sure though because this is listed along with the warp drive and the drive complement.”
After a moment of contemplation, I selected ‘frame capture’ and ran a basic, full subsystem diagnostic.
After a few moments, I heard the ship’s reactor change output modes followed by the unmistakable rumble of the warp drive activating. This was confirmation that whatever the frame capture system was, it had something to do with the FTL drive, however that still left a lot of questions unanswered. I had never encountered it before, so it was either new technology or something that had been kept secret.
The diagnostic continued without issue until suddenly, a warning flashed on the screen. I didn’t have time to read it before the control interface went dead. The warp drive powered down along with the reactor leaving us in total silence.
“Hey!” commander Taylor shouted from below, “You two should get down here!”
Esen and I made our way down to the cargo hold. The spaces between the flight deck and the hold were dark now as, apparently, the entire spacecraft had lost power. Fortunately, the cargo bay doors were still open and thus the deck was illuminated with sunlight.
When we reached the hold, we both stopped in our tracks. Something was definitely different.
“Whatever you did caused it to become visible,” commander Taylor said.
He was right. In the center of the room sat a strange metallic object. It had a thick outline in the shape of a dodecahedron, however, the space in the middle was filled with a forest of thin metal strands. It was spiky, messy, and in some way, almost organic.
“Can you ask the raknin what this is?” Taylor asked.
I glanced over at the pilot thoroughly restrained with the shiny, high performance tape. She was staring at the now-visible object, and the fear in her eyes was contagious.
I looked at her and saw myself as a kid lost in the woods.
“Hey, are you alright?” the commander asked.
“Sorry, I’m fine,” I said. “I think the silence is getting to me again.”
