2023.06.05 00:13 stlatos Armenian *oi

If some sound changes include optional elements, it can be very hard to separate them out. Even in Arm., *oi > oy, *oi > *ey > ē, *oi > ay, all have good examples. Disputes about which are real or the regular outcome seem to miss the point that this shows an important feature of many IE languages

Ex. of oy > ay
G. oîdos ‘swelling’, Oidí-pous, Arm. ayt -i- ‘cheek’, aytumn ‘swelling’
*oiw- > G. oíē ‘service-tree’, Arm. aygi ‘grapevine’

Ex. of oy > *ey > ē
*dhoig^ho- > Skt. dehī-, G. teîkhos \ toîkhos ‘wall’, Arm. dēz ‘pile/heap’
*stoigWo- > OIr tóib ‘side’, Arm. t’ēkn ‘shoulder’
*h3oino- ‘wine/vine’ > G. oînos, *h3oinyo-? > *geynoy- > Arm. gini, gen. ginwoy

Ex. of oy > oy
*moit(h?)o- > OIc. meiðr ‘tree/beam/pole’, Arm. moyt’, Skt. methí- ‘pillapost’, Li. mietas ‘stake/pole’
*(h?)arawoit- > OHG arawe(i)z \ hereviz, Arm. aṙuoyt ‘alfalfa’

Several uncertain cases:
Go. steigan ‘go/climb’, steíkhō ‘stride/march/advance/walk/go’, Slavic stig- ‘arrive/pursue’, Li. steigtis ‘hurry’, Arm. stoyg *’complete?/zealous?/assiduous?’ > ‘certain’
*moino- > Li. mainas ‘exchange’, OHG mein ‘false’, Arm. moyn ‘beauty/floridity/grace’, -moyn ‘coloappearance/vision/like(ness)/face’ (in hawramoyn ‘like his father’, tmoyn ‘discolored’, caramoyn ‘unhappy’, covamoyn ‘drowned’, Erazamoyn (likely named like Anariakē ‘city in Arm. where prophecies were made for sleepers’))

There’s also an uncertain case (in which owi > oi might be old in both Alb. and Arm.):
*k^owilo-? > G. koîlos ‘hollow/deep’, Alb. thellë ‘deep’, këthellë ‘hole/cave/cavity’, Arm. soyl ‘cavity’

Also, Arm. yo-stems seem to undergo metathesis, with *yo > *oy in some, which merge with unstressed oy: nom. *-yos > -i but other *-yo- > *-oy- > -u- (*pewyo- > ogi \ hogi ‘soul/spirit’, gen. hogwoy; *h2agWh-? > agi, gen. agwoy ‘tail/penis’, *h3oinyo-? > *geynoy- > Arm. gini, gen. ginwoy). When some C > 0, resulting oCi > oy is usual, but some might show various outcomes (*h3os(e)no-? > *hohin? > hoyn ‘cornel’, huni \ honi \ hni \ honeni ‘cornel tree’, R. jásen’, L. ornus ‘mtn. ash’).

Since *oi, *ou, and *eu usually merge as -oy- (& -u- when unstressed), *-öü- seems like an intermediate stage for all. This means both oi > oü and ou > oü, something like eu > eü or eu > öu first. This also became u when unstressed (*bheug- > Skt. bhoj- ‘enjoy’, bhóga-, Arm. -boyc ‘food’, bucanem ‘feed’). A change of u > ü would help explain this (see summary for *ü in https://www.reddit.com/IndoEuropean/comments/13zxmkk/armenian_and_greek_u_%C3%BC/ ).

In loans, Iranian *au > *ou ( > *ō ) usually appears as oy (OP xauda- ‘cap’, Av. xaōda- ‘helmet’, Arm. xoyr ‘headgear’). With no native *ou at the time, they probably adapted *ou as *öü (later > oy). This could be seen in some words that show optional *öü > *ei (*kausa- > *kousa- > Sog. kws ‘side’ > Arm. koys ‘side’, kēs ‘half’ https://www.reddit.com/IndoEuropean/comments/140qn76/pie_kh2aulo_hollow_tubechannel/ ). This supports native *oi to both oy and *ey > ē above.

Other loans show optionality, even when the source is unclear: *trew-? > Av. thraō- ‘nourish’, Khot. pattrūṣa ‘edible medicine’, *throuna-? > t’oyn \ t’iwn ‘poison’. This seems to show alt. wi \ uy and an early merger of uy and oy. A few other words show iw \ oy and might be native: joyl \ joył \ jiwl ‘molten (mass)’.

Together, this allows a series of front vowels in Proto-Arm. that could alternate. This is seen in other words, and combined with the changes to *oi above it even allows:
*h3oid- > G. oîdos ‘swelling’, Oidí-pous, Arm. ayt -i- ‘cheek’, aytumn ‘swelling’, *xoyt’ > Łarabał xüt' ‘*swelling/*mound’ > ‘hillock’
This provides more ev. for h2 = x, h3 = xW, etc. If *h3oid-ti- > *xoifti > *xöüwthi > *xoyt’ ‘swelling’ existed, the many words with x- followed by *oy\ey\ay\aw might be combined into one, showing *öü > oy/ay/ey as above, and even *öüw > *äü > aw. For tt and pt > wt(h), see *si:p- ‘sip / drip / trickle’ > OE sípian, *sipti- > Arm. hiwt’ ‘moisture/sap/essence’; *weid- ‘know’, *wid-ti- > Arm. giwt -i- ‘finding / invention’, git -i- ‘finding / gift’. Some like xit’ ‘rock/reef’, xut’ ‘impediment under feet / reef’ could show an analogical *ü in new 0-grade (ti-stems are either e- or 0-) or another opt. *öüw > *üü > u \ i. Words like xit’ \ xoyt’ *biting > ‘crocodile’, x(e)t’em ‘bite/push/shove’ show that these vowel changes existed even within words, and the meanings are found in steps uniting all (xet’ ‘scowling gaze’, xot’em ‘look with a scowling gaze / bite /shove’, etc.):

*xöüwthi > *xoyt’ ‘swelling / mound’ > Łarabał xüt' ‘hillock’

*xöüwthi > *xäüth > xayt’, xayt’oc’ ‘sting/bite’, xayt’em (verb), xawt’ ‘ill/sick’, *xawt’ik > Akn xOt'ig ‘type of wound’

*xöüwthi > *xeyt’ > xēt’ ‘bite of conscience/pain in stomach/doubt/feaspite/hate / dangeobstacle’, xit’em ‘worry/fear’

*xöüwthi > *xüt’ > xit’ ‘pain/twinge/rock/reef’, xut’ ‘impediment under feet / reef’, xt’em ‘bite/goad/push/shove’, xt’an ‘goad’

? > xet’umn ‘bite of conscience’, xet’em ‘bite/push/shove’, xet’ ‘scowling gaze’, xot’(ot)em ‘look with a scowling gaze / bite /shove’

? > xit’ \ xoyt’ *biting > ‘crocodile’

Further, šit’oł ‘biting’, šit’oc’ ‘bite of bee’ seem related to xayt’oc’ ‘sting/bite’, etc., which would not only show x > x^ > š before ü (like all Ku in https://www.reddit.com/IndoEuropean/comments/13zxmkk/armenian_and_greek_u_%C3%BC/ ) but also make it possible that PIE h2 = x could undergo the same optional uK > üK^ as these stops (more later).

2023.06.03 23:31 stlatos Fortunatov’s Law in Context

Fortunatov’s Law states that in Skt. dentals became retroflex after l, then l disappeared. This fits with Skt. l likely being retroflex, as sometimes preserved in Kh. (Skt. kīlā́la-s \ kīlālá-m ‘sweet drink / biestings? / buttermilk?’, kilāṭa- ‘cheese’, Kh. kiḷàḷ). A list of *lC here https://avzaagzonunaada.wordpress.com/2021/07/02/example-post-3/ . However, this “law” is not regular, since some VlC > VC, others > V:C, others > VCh, others unclear. I’ll add some more showing various outcomes:

*bhals-? > bhaṣá-s ‘barking/baying’, bhāṣa- ‘speech’, Li. balsas ‘voice’

*g^elt- > jaṭhára- ‘stomach’, Go. in-kilþs ‘pregnant’, OE cild, E. child

*kh2ald- \ *kxald-? > *kaldo- > kaḍa- ‘dumb’, Go. halts ‘*broken > lame’

*kald-? > khaḍ- ‘divide/break’, khaṇḍ- ‘divide/break/destroy’, khaḍgá-s \ khaŋgá-s ‘sword’, OIr claideb ‘sword’

*g^helh3to- > hárita- ‘yellow(ish) / pale (yellow/red) / green(ish)’, Av. zairita- ‘yellow’
*g^hlh3to-m > hāṭaka-m ‘gold’, Go. gulþ, E. gold

*melno- > MIr. mell, Gae. meal ‘hill’, Irish meal ‘sphere/lump/knob/knoll/heap’, Skt. máṇḍa- ‘circle/circularound’

*meldno-? ‘slow’ > Skt. manda-, Kh. malála ‘late’, Ku. mǝlaŋ ‘slowly’, R. medlennyj

*(s)mlhno- > Latvian milna ‘cloth / garment’, Persian *mandō >> G. mandúas ‘woolen cloak’

*krt- ‘cut’? > kaṭú- ‘pungent/bitter’ (if not Drav.)

*pelhtno- > palitá- ‘aged/old/grey’, G. pelitnós
*pelhdno-? > G. pelidnós, *paldna- > pāṇḍú- ‘white (yellow)’, Sa. palú ‘grey hair’ (if not Drav., see https://www.reddit.com/Dravidiology/comments/13tilb6/pie_pekws_cook_ripen_drav_pa%E1%BA%93nd_ripen_grow_old/ )

It seems like an optional change with an intermediate x (since xt > xth or VxC > V:C would be likely, and fit in with PIE h2, also likely = x). This would explain why *g^hlh3to-m > hāṭaka-m could occur with loss of h3 (if h3 was a fricative, a cluster like xxWt > xt or similar would be expected). If the older sound(s) are preserved in Kh., descriptions of ḷ as either retroflex or velarized (L) could be old, with most ḷC > LC, then LC > xC in Vedic Skt. The opt. nature of all this would also help explain apparent als and ah2s = xs merging as āṣ (*wah2pos- > L. vapor, *wah2spo- > Skt. vāṣpá-s ‘steam/vapor’). Again, this is not regular, and also varies by language (*bhah2so-, *bhah2sno- > G. phḗnē \ phínis ‘bearded vulture?’, Skt. bhāsa-, MP bāz ‘hawk/falcon’, Ps. bāṣa).

Also, *r sometimes shows the same changes: *karsto- > Rom. karšt / kašt, G. káston ‘wood’, kāṣṭhá-m ‘stick / (piece of) wood/timber’; *per(s)ni- > Skt. pāṇí- ‘hoof/hand’, Kh. póong, Kv. přõ ‘foot of cow/horse’. This seems to fit into my theory that many ex. of r > 0 come from r > R (uvular) https://www.reddit.com/etymology/comments/zkgi2m/latin_pr%C4%93x_request_armenian_a%C5%82ersank_a%C5%82a%C4%8Dank/ . If so, in Skt. both l > L > x and r > R > X might have existed. Most IE do not merge l and r, so intermediate l > L in Indo-Iraian might allow back L and R to merge in most words. This explains why r > 0 is so common in most of the IE ex., with very few l > 0, but the opposite is seen in Skt. (in the same environment, see *splendh- > L. splend-, Li. spindėti ‘shine’; *sprend(h)- > OE sprind ‘agile/lively’, E. sprint, Skt. spandate ‘throb/shake/quivekick’). This seems irregular, as seen by Skt. 0 vs. Dardic r above, and variants in other IE (G. *mrkW-? > márptō ‘seize/grasp’, map- ‘seize’).

Indo-Iranian is known for the merger of r & l, but Armenian also shows a lot of changes of PIE r > l and l > r https://www.reddit.com/IndoEuropean/comments/13zombu/ie_merger_of_r_l/ . If this could be shown to be related to R and L also, it would support this theory. Arm. words with both l \ ł exist (gayl\gaył ‘wolf’), and *l > ł seems to occur for no reason in some. This ł might have been pronounced as L then R. The changes of *l > ł / x are supposedly seen in: Arm. pl. sanduł-k` / sandux-k` ‘laddestairs’, acuł / acux ‘soot/coal’, gazał \ gazax ‘ashes/embers’. If h2 = x, the opposite in *swaxdu(r)- > Skt. svādú- ‘sweet’, *xwaxtur > *xwałtür > Arm. k`ałc`r ‘sweet’. If there was also h2 = x > X > R in *n-bhah2sk^e- > *nbha(r)sk^e- > TB mrausk-, a complete series of optional changes linking these sounds in both directions would exist.

This stage with R > X also has the benefit of explaining words with Cr and rC with the same change. See:
*deruno- > *derno- > *denro- > G. déndron ‘tree’, Skt. daṇḍá- ‘staff’
*enro- ‘inner’ > *endro- > Ks. ónḍrak ‘egg’, Skt. āṇḍá-m \ aṇḍá- ‘egg / testicle’, *jendro > OCS je,dro, R. jadró ‘kernel/core’
*bhal- ‘swell’ > OHG ballo, ON böllr ‘ball / testicle’, W. balleg ‘bag/sack’, Skt. bhāṇḍa-m ‘pot’

If Ph. bámbalon \ bábalon ‘genitals’ is related to the above, *bhalVmbo- > *bhalmbo- > *bhalndo- > bhāṇḍa-m might be possible, showing another change for -lmb-.

2023.06.01 16:03 AutoModerator Sub Update: participating in a Reddit chat channels pilot test

Hey everyone,
Frenemies3 is participating in an official Reddit pilot test for a new feature called chat channels, which are spaces where redditors can have real-time conversations on different topics! The feature is only available on the iOS and Android apps at this time.
As a part of the pilot, we get early access to the prototype feature and we will be sharing feedback, feature requests, and suggestions directly with the Reddit Chat team on how they can make chat channels better. We’ll also get visibility into the roadmap to see what features are coming next.
If you use the app to view this sub, you’ll start seeing channels that we’ve set up and you’ll be able to chat in these spaces.
If you can’t see it, try updating your app to the latest version, or force-closing and reopening the app. If that still doesn’t work, it’s not rolled out to everyone yet, but it will be soon.
Here’s a list of our channels!
F3 (Which can be utilized for general discussion about the H3/Trisha universe)
Youtube_Twitch (Used to discussion influencers or topics relating to those platforms)
OffTopic (A place to discuss anything else you can think of, as long as it is SFW)
[Current list as of June 1st, 2023 - Subject to change]
If you have any questions, let us know in the comments!

2023.06.01 01:48 WhenwasyourlastBM If you do anything today, I think you should read this

Hi everyone, I'm your friendly neighborhood suicidal here. Well, I was, I had quite a lucky weekend and it led me to some insights that changed my life. All I want is for you to read this, maybe it will snowball for you like it did for me, and maybe in a week you’ll understand why I felt compelled to write this. You don't have to be open minded, as you read this post, you can even skip to the end if you’re inpatient with the speech, totally fair, I’m very long winded.
For background I've had CPTSD symptoms as long as I can remember. I have had suicidal thoughts daily, I've had attempts, I've done inpatient/outpatient programs, 5 different antidepressants, ADHD meds, DBT twice. I'm fully NC with my parents. And today I would deny it if you asked if I had a mental illness. Not because I'm in denial, not because I don't think I was living in literal fucking hell or because I think you aren't either. I probably could have and still could lose my job for my symptom related problems... I'm a RN but I'll be the first to tell you that I'm very skeptical of the way we treat mental illness in this world. I am not offering medical advice; I'm simply saying this because I've had experience as the patient and as the person handing you your Abilify in the hospital while you wait for inpatient beds in full blown crisis. Point is I fucking get it.
I'll cut to the chase; the short answer is that CPTSD symptoms mean you're closer to feeling better than the people who made you this way will ever feel. Your body and mind know how to make you better, but we've been conditioned to ignore them and listen to the "experts." All of us here will agree that we have unprocessed trauma that needs to come out. We tried everything to process it but all we do is get further and further from processing it. We cope and feel ashamed that we are doing everything right and it doesn’t help. Doesn’t fill the void. I'm going to list how I got here and what I realized to do this. The is a beta test as it were. My goal is to create a "protector" proof way to begin healing, the beginning of a healing avalanche. It's not meant as medical advice, a cure, anything other than a summary of my weekend and the insights I've had. I just want you to read. I've included optional links, there is no right way to read this. I just want you to read what speaks to you and do what speaks to you. If that's going into the comments and saying that this is the dumbest shit you've ever read, I more than welcome that because you’re already a step ahead. You’re giving yourself permission to feel/say what you want to do. If I can just push one person in the right direction then I'm happy and if you hate this entire guide and think I'm the dumbest person ever, that's still a step in the right direction. As you read, I'm hoping it'll make sense.
The boring and short answer that helped me:
IFS, a book, music, and missing my meds. But that’s not helpful to anyone, and to isolate each of those items and say it was any one thing or that this is the cure would be a total lie. First of all, don’t just drop your meds. Second of all, IFS is expensive and hard to find a therapist and many sites warn against independent use in severe trauma. I think these items happened to be a catalyst for me, but they won’t necessarily be for you.
The Longer Story:
About 2 weeks ago I missed a dose of medication and heard a beautiful song on H3 Podcast. A small part of me was just so excited to feel. And it occurred to me that this woman couldn't have made such good music if she didn't feel. What was wrong with feeling? I began to ponder that. Still fully numbed to the world. You see, I spent the last 3 years in an avoidant Effexor haze/THC haze. I had been pondering my CPTSD for so long and I realized I could ponder it forever and ever, but I can't think myself whole. I have to feel it. But then I buried that part. How silly? I knew that part was there, and I knew I was burying it. Why was I doing that? But I started missing my meds more and more. I was opening up to the idea of feeling. I was flooded with suicidal thoughts, and I broke down and called Kaiser despite knowing how much kaiser has triggered me in the past. I needed something bigger and better than CBT/Coping/DBT/Pills. I would not allow them to stop me from feeling. I went off my meds (don't do that without consulting or reflecting first. I just knew it was a personal need and I was ready). And a snowball effect happened. Not because I am magic or stopped my meds. But because the cognitive part of me that knew I needed to feel to get better was trustworthy. A mess of signs in the world were occurring, and as a devoutly non-spiritual person it was clear. It had to be because I actually DO KNOW what's best, and I was choosing to see these things in the world because that part of me has always been there. Screaming for my attention but I wasn't listening. It turns out that I just needed to give myself permission to feel the bad things and that snowballed. But easier said than done. I can’t exactly pinpoint what did it for me, so below I’m going to list the items I used in tandem to warm myself up to healing. There are no right or wrong answers, but I think it would have been very very easy for anyone of these items to fail individually. It came down to a perfect storm for me, but one set off the other and they all worked as a collective. Importantly, there are many things I didn’t do.
What I didn’t do:
Stop “bad” habits: There is a reason I overeat, smoke ‘too much’ weed, oversleep, etc. An IFS model would say there are no bad parts. These things all are done with benevolent intentions. A part of you is putting out a fire. The second you set an intention to stop these habits, a part of you gets very uncomfortable. Honor these parts. You can die a carton-a-day smoker, but if you quit before that part is ready, I think it’s going to become much harder to feel whole. IFS is definitely a great model if you struggle with these things. I’ve now realized that traditional healthcare partially didn’t work because the parts of me are creative and stubborn. Alarm bells go off at the thought of being told they can’t do what they want.
Meditate/”self-care”/Mindfulness: Fuck those amiright? But seriously, after spending decades failing to feel anything positive from these things, I’ve learned it’s because people who don’t actually understand it do a terrible job of teaching this. It’s so isolating to hear that when it’s done nothing positive for you. I felt like such a failure. For me it turns out a part of me is terrified of emotions, sitting in “meditations” felt like torture, I would become so distracted and miserable. The idea of “watching thoughts go by and doing nothing” is less than ideal. It supports the misconception that there are bad or good thoughts or feelings. I’m a firm believer in looking at thoughts. Why am I thinking about hulk right now? What am I afraid will happen if I don’t think about hulk? Same goes for self-care. I think these things are methods we use to avoid feeling what being human feels like. Many of us will find we never felt what it’s like to be human. That’s okay, that part of you is in there.
Therapy: Every therapy session I’ve been to felt like I was just justifying my existence to someone else. If a therapist isn’t open to feeling, you will never get better. They probably don’t know even know they are afraid to feel also. The moment I said to myself “I am suicidal, I want to die. That’s okay. It means I need to fix something” instead of “Oh no I’m sick and I’ll never be happy and this feeling is wrong it means I’m bad.” Again, this all seems silly, its not something I can cognitively get into your head, it’s something you need to feel.
What I did do:
Feel: The simplest, biggest thing. Feeling is being human, for better or worse. I was lucky, I missed meds and found profoundly beautiful music that spoke to me. That may not be your life circumstance and it may not feel or be safe to feel yet. That’s okay. I had no agenda, I put on music I loved and got into my car and just listened to the music. As emotions came up, I just felt them. I KNOW THIS SOUNDS SMOOTHBRAINED! I’m very aware of that. But this is where the snowball happened for me the most. I think it’s important to find music that speaks to you, but my personal example was a little insane. I used to listen to a band called Beware of Darkness. In 2014 they had millions of fans and I hadn’t heard them probably since 2016 or so. When I decided it felt good to feel, even the most hurtful emotions, I knew this band meant a lot to me and the frontman had very profound lyrics and emotionally touching music. I put the band on and just drove, around the block, to the beach, to the carwash. I was feeling, the lyrics were saying everything I’ve been saying my whole life. I felt like if feeling all these things created this art, then feeling these things is fucking beautiful. And the lyrics are very dark, the writer admits to having been extremely depressed for most of his career. Anyway, this is when shit got weird. I had been listening to the music and feeling and reading on IFS, that all felt great. Things were falling into place. But guess what? I found out that this fucker released a book a couple months ago called “Thank God for Depression.” The odds? I don’t know, but the point is: many people will go their whole lives without feeling whole, but we have symptoms guiding us there, many people don’t. A part of you just wants to feel but you’ve been so conditioned not to that you don’t even know how. Deeper parts don’t know it’s okay.
Reading about IFS: I always read IFS was helpful, and I always knew of its existence. However, I never would have been able to really give IFS an authentic chance until I saw a glimmer of hope. I think IFS and music really fed each other into helping me. I also want to give credit to a redditor who posted his helpful website. Much of the information above came from that. The only reason I didn’t just post “why you should do IFS” is because if it were that simple I’d have been cured a long time ago. I strongly believe in IFS for many reasons, but the biggest was that it provided many of the “What I didn’t do” items. Giving up on the idea that I’m sick and need to do XYZ and then I’ll be all better was huge, learning simply that I’m not broken because being sober or skinny didn’t fix anything was also huge. Also, everyone swears their methodology is best and I don’t want to debate that. I think it’s more about the restrictions we subconsciously put on ourselves than anything else, and for me, the idea of jumping into a new therapy or reaching out was not helpful. I also have a tiny thing I don’t love about IFS. It’s easy to get caught up into doing it “right.” I found myself asking “am I blended,” “am I making stuff up,” or “am I even doing this right” too many times. I think if you’re open to hearing what your parts have to say and honoring that then you can get a lot accomplished.
New perspective: Essentially that’s this whole post. I stopped seeing my CPTSD as a bad thing that I have but a blessing telling me how to honor myself and my feelings. And it’s so stupid sounding, but once you get through to enough “parts” or open up enough, quell the doubts, etc, a switch will flip and you will be amazed. It also gave me a spiritual side I didn’t know could exist. I’ve had about the closest thing a person can have to an ayahuasca experience in my bedroom with my computer, spotify, and weed. Because it turned out that a part of me was just scared I would be “cringe” or “lame,” if I felt better. Part of me thought I would be sellout if I healed. Like I’d be less cool, it seems crazy now but it’s a very valid fear. But you know, the lead singer of the band from earlier? He’s happy now and his music has never been better.
And this is where we get spiritual and woo woo and many of you are welcome to skip. But before you do, just know I have always been such a skeptic I didn’t even believe in Santa as a 4-year-old and I never once believed in God. I always thought spiritualism = religion = the cause of so much suffering.
Ayahuasca: I haven’t done it. It’s come up many times in this post though. From a more clinical perspective, ayahuasca can help people access the parts in IFS. I have another post with great discussion in the comments, but I would guess using both Aya and IFS together would have like a 99.9% efficacy rate in CPTSD, however nobody is going to do that research in the states anytime soon. Aside from the whole War on Drugs part of things, I think it would be disrespectful to use this plant medicine without a Shaman who knows how to respect it. But there is a saying “Ayahuasca starts working the moment you answer her call.” And as you read the post, you can see she has been calling me very loudly. Whether or not you believe in that quote, you can’t deny the serious of fortunate events that led me here. 8 days ago someone discussed their experience with Aya on H3 Podcast and the host Ethan played this music that next day. I was tapering my meds and as I mentioned, it felt so good. And that lead to me listening to Beware of Darkness. Who's lead singer wrote "Thank God for Depression". That author in the book? First page he is talking about Aya, the day I put on his music for the first time in years was after hearing that other music on a podcast, the very same podcast where a woman tells the host that Aya has helped her, the very day I missed my meds and first opened up to the idea that feelings are good. It’s turtles all the way down. Maybe you believe it’s more spiritual, but even on a more skeptical level, I made those connections because I knew what would help me. IFS would say it’s “Self Energy,” a Shaman might say it’s the divine, a Buddhist might say it’s enlightenment. But ultimately that’s the goal, whatever you call it. It’s the thing that fills the hole you don’t know how to fill.
Anyway, every second since I've "flipped this switch," "found self," etc I have another "aha" moment. The world makes more sense, the stars align, and I feel grateful for CPTSD. It's easy to tell myself I'm having a manic episode, it's only been a couple days, its the effexor withdrawal. I see how that would be the obvious answer to everyone. It would make sense. But on the other-side. From the perspective I've gained now, I have the hope and confidence to know that's not true. Because I've literally never felt whole until now. And I'm holding onto that wholeness. There is a lot of parts work I have to do, I'm seeing a shaman in a couple weeks, and there's still the economy/state of the world. But I have something to hold onto and just wanted to share it with anyone who wants that too. I want feedback, DMs, etc. I'm a baby in the world of being happy, so I'm not going to pretend I have anything together. But I have the thing and the thing is what matters.
Resources/things I've referenced:
HOLY GRAIL: LEVI you are a beautiful person and this webite imo is the holy grail. Shoutout to u/IntegralGuideAuthor
Thank God for Depression: $10 on amazon, I haven’t even finished it but it’s been a huge source of insights. But it might just have worked because the author is so special to me.
H3 Podcast Clip discussing Aya
Music Ethan played next Day: Very relatable music. “Someone smiled at me today and I cried because I realized I don’t like myself.”- Elizabeth Homes, very new artist and talented foot soldier.
Beware of Darkness: Kingdom will Come: I forced myself to pick one song. If you need music ideas that’s my bread and butter. But this one song says more than this whole post could for me.
REDDIT! All of you were on my mind. All the posts here remind me how I’m not alone in this.
Ayahuasca: DM if you want to talk about this, I haven’t done ayahuasca yet and it would be a bad idea to act like I have. However, if after all this you feel it’s YOUR personal next step, I tell you the information I've found to point you towards a retreat.

2023.06.01 01:01 stlatos PIE and Armenian K

IE changes to velars (K) often seem irregular, and since these include k > x & *h > k, it is likely that PIE h1 = x^, h2 = x, h3 = xW.

*xWokW- >> L. oculus ‘eye’; *xWokW-ixto- >> Li. akytas ‘having eyes’, L. *xokwel-it- ‘having (one) eye’ > cocules ‘one-eyed’
*prdumxo- > Kh. purdùm ‘leopard’, Skt. prdakū-, prdākhu- ‘leopard/tigesnake’

*gab- > Arm. kapem ‘bind’
*ghabh- > L. habeō
(compare kapem ‘bind’ to Latvian kampt ‘seize/grasp’)

Slavic *golumb- > R. goluboj ‘blue’, Baltic *golimb- > OPr. golimban ‘blue’, *gelumbiyā- > Li. gelumbė ‘blue kerchief/cloth’
Slavic *golumbi- ‘dove’
Sanskrit kalamba- / kaḍamba- / kadamba-, Greek kolumbís / kólumbos ‘diver (bird)’, Latin columba ‘dove, pigeon’

Skt. srákva- \ sṛkvaṇ- ‘corner of mouth’, TB *sǝrkwan- > *sǝrxwan- > särwāna (pl. tan.) ‘face’

Most of these are already recognized as cognates, some are distputed. For Skt. kharjura- ‘silver’, Greek árguros ‘silver’ from PIE *h2arg^uro-, see https://www.reddit.com/IndoEuropean/comments/13umn3s/greek_kh%C3%A1lub_hardened_iron_steel_khalk%C3%B3s/ . Armenian and Celtic sometimes changing *ka- > *ga- (and g > k in Arm.) would explain some data, but this is not regular. Many of these might come from clusters like *k^x-. The similar *zg is also optional around IE:
*mezg- > L. mergō, Skt. májjati ‘submerge/sink’, *mezgu- > L. mergus ‘gull’, Skt. madgú-
*zgWes- ‘quench/extinguish / put out a fire’ > *djas- > Skt. dásyati be exhausted / despair, jása- \ dása-, etc.
*azgWolxo-? > G. ásbolos / asbólē ‘soot’, *ask^ülxo- > Arm. acuł / acux ‘soot/coal’
*presgWu-? G. présbus ‘old man’, Cr. preigus, Arm. erēc` ‘elder’
Some say *pres-gWh2u-? ‘coming before / ancestor’ is needed to explain Armenian erēc`, but I think acuł shows the same (caused by g > g^ before u (indicating u > ü as in Greek)). This would mean h2 was unneeded, and even K > K^ by u in Arm. is not regular.

Just within Arm., the changes to K include k > k \ kh \ x \ *h > 0:

Arm. kayt ‘mark on marble’, xayt \ xayc ‘mark/spot’, Skt. keta-, ketú- ‘mark/sign’, TB kāy ‘mark’

OE sceolh ‘crooked’, G. skélos ‘leg’, skellós ‘crooked-legged’, Arm. šeł ‘slanting / crooked’, xeł ‘mutilated / lame’

Arm. sałim ‘be mistaken’, sxalim ‘be mistaken / stumble’, sxalak ‘drunken’, Skt. skhálati ‘stumble’,

G. skórodon / skórdon, Alb. hurdhë, Arm. xstor ‘garlic’

Arm. mxrčem ‘immerse/dip’, mkrtem ‘immerse/dip / bathe/baptize’

Skt. khād- ‘chew/bite/eat’, Arm. xacanem, kcanem ‘bite/sting’

Arm. ozni, MArm. xozni / kozni, G. ekhînos, Skt. jáhakā-, Brahui ǰaǰak, YAv. dužuka-, NP žūža ‘hedgehog’
(compare kh vs. *h > 0 in G. khḗr ‘hedgehog’, L. ēr )

Li. kárštas ‘hot’, Arm. xaršem ‘cook/burn’, Skt. kuṣāku- ‘burning’, *kurzd- > kūḍayāti, kuṇḍate ‘burn’

*skandlo- > L. pl. scālae ‘ladder / flight of steps’, *sxandułxo- > Arm. pl. sanduł-k` / sandux-k` ‘laddestairs’

G. khaláō ‘loosen/slacken’, Skt. khallate, Arm. xał ‘game/pastime’ (from ‘free / loose’ (compare L. laxus ))

Arm. ktł- ‘burning desire’, xtił ‘tickling/lust’

Skt. kartati ‘cut/slice’, Arm. ktrem ‘cut’, kotor \ ktor \ ktur-k’ ‘cut/share’, ktir-k’ ‘dowry’, hatu-ktir\kčir

*tetk^-? > t’ek’em ‘shape, bend, twist, weave’, t’akart’ ‘trap, snare, net’

*h2aukWtro-? > *akurt > MArm. akut’ ‘cookstove’, Van dia. angurt’ ‘portable clay oven’, *aukslo- > L. aulla ‘pot’

G. knḗthō ‘scratch/itch’, Arm. xaz ‘line (in hand) / scratch’

If x, kh, and k were regular and separate, why would so many words show both? This is not limited to PIE *k(h), even PIE h > h \ 0 \ x has no set order:

*h3od- ‘smell, stink, hate’ > L. oleō, odor, odī ‘I hate’, Arm. hot

*h3owi- > L. ovis ‘sheep’, Arm. hovi-, *+pah2- > hoviw ‘shepherd’

*h2awi- > L. avis, Arm. haw ‘bird / roostehen’, Moks xav

*h2awo- > L. avus ‘grandfather’, Arm. haw

*h2ak^o-sth2o- > G. akostḗ ‘barley’, Skt. apāṣṭhá- ‘barb of an arrow’, Arm. hawasti-k` ‘tassels of a belt’

*h2ak^-st(h2t)i- > Li. akstìs \ akštìs ‘kind of skewer’, Arm. hask -i- ‘ear of grain’, Van xašk

*h2ag^- > G. ágō ‘lead’, Arm. acem ‘bring/lead’

*h2arh2mon- > Li. armuõ ‘arable land’, Arm. haravun-k’ ‘arable land / plow-land’, K’łi harmunk' ‘plowable soil softened by spring rains’

*h1nek^-n- > Arm. hasanem ‘arrive at / reach / catch/take/get/gain’, Skt. naś-, L. nanciscor ‘get/reach/obtain’

? > Arm. xełd- \ hełj- ‘drown/suffocate/strangle’, hełjamłjuk ‘drowned/suffocated’, młjuk- ‘strangle’

*h3oid- > G. oîdos ‘swelling’, Oidí-pous, Arm. ayt -i- ‘cheek’, aytumn ‘swelling’, *xoyt’ > Łarabał xüt' ‘*swelling/*mound’ > ‘hillock’

This works best if h2 = x and most x > h, some retained. Dialects with x- for older h- are more conservative, not innovative. The intermediate s > š > x fit Pamir data for Iranian (sk > šk, other s > x) and sw- > *xw- > kh- in both. Slavic also shows some s > x with no apparent cause. This also matches s > *x > x \ h \ 0, p > *xW > x \ h \ 0, completely bereft of regularity:

*pewyo- > ogi \ hogi ‘soul/spirit’; *pew-ah2- > hewam ‘breathe heavily’

Skt. pṛthuka- ‘child / young of animal’, G. pórtax \ pórtis (f) ‘calf’, Arm. ort’ -u- ‘calf/fawn’, xort’ -o- ‘stepson/adulterine’, Muš. xort’ ‘young (man)’

Arm. ort’ ‘grapevine’, G. pórthos ‘shoot’

*samhǝdho- > E. sand, G. ámathos, Arm. awaz, L. sabulum

*kWyeh1-sk^e\o- > L. quiēscō ‘rest’, *sm- > Arm. hangč’im ‘rest’, Muš hang‘ ‘rest/breath’, Moks xangY

? > Arm. boyl -i- ‘group (of people/deeetc)’, hoyl -i- ‘group of animals/people’, xoyl -i- ‘swelling/tumogland’, bołǰ ‘swelling/tumowound’

Since *h at the start can remain as x, x within words shoud have the same explanation. This includes kanxem above (both k and x odd), and many in https://www.reddit.com/etymology/comments/w04cuz/importance_of_armenian_retention_of_h123/


For PIE *w, a stage with w > GW (G = voiced velar fricative) makes sense (see Hrach Martirosyan). This also shows w > g / kh / x / v / 0 with no cause; it is likely that there was optional *G / *x then optional *x > kh. This is seen by supposed original *gWh = *GW > *x > kh in the other direction. This *x is retained in many examples, often with alternation:

*widk^mt- > *GWic^amt- > *xis^anD- > k’san ’20’

*gWhen- > G. eu-thenḗs ‘in abundance / wealth’, Arm. yo-gn / yo-k’’n ‘numerous/abundant’

*wergY- > TA wärk-, TB wark- ‘shear’, Arm. gercem ‘shave / make bald’, k’ercem ‘shave / peel / strip off’

*Gony- > xonǰim ‘be tired/exhausted’, *yoGn- > yognim / yok’nim ‘be(come) tired/exhausted/discouraged’

*proh3-gWhen- ‘very abundant/large/great’ > G. parthénos ‘virgin’, Arm. aṙa-k’ini ‘valiant/courageous/virtuous/honest’

*GorGuD / *xoruxD > xoroxt / xroxt ‘haughty/proud’, goṙoz ‘proud/arrogant’, goṙ ‘shout/fierce/bold/haughty/warlike’

*wel > G. hélix ‘object with spiral shape’, Arm. xec’ ‘pot / shell (of mollusks)’, xec’ \ hec’ ‘felloe’

*widhw- ‘(arms) apart / tree’ > *GüDG- > *gu(r)g- / *gi(r)k(h)- > Arm. girk-k’ ‘tree’, girk ‘arms/lap/bosom’, gog ‘lap/bosom’, *gurg ‘embrace’, girg ‘tendedelicate/soft’, ołǰ-a-gurem ‘greet / embrace’, gurgurel ‘cuddle/caress’

and even Iran. loans seem to show a stage with GW and optional GW > v or GW > gh:

*g^hew- > jagar ‘funnel’, *javar >> Gr. jabri

*g^wah2lo-, *dz^walanō > Skt. jválana-s ‘fire’, Balochi jal ‘hot ashes / charcoal’, ? >> *azgal > Arm. gazał \ gazax ‘ashes/embers’

Arm. is also known for having odd changes to *r like Arm. kēt ‘biting fly’, kret ‘wasp’; *akurt > MArm. akut’, Van dia. angurt’ (above) among many others https://www.reddit.com/etymology/comments/zkgi2m/latin_pr%C4%93x_request_armenian_a%C5%82ersank_a%C5%82a%C4%8Dank/ . The simplest reason for some r > 0 is a uvular pronunciation R, common in many languages. If R became a fricative, as in French, it might merge with PIE h1, h2, h3 and disappear. The Dardic languages might show traces of this R, with r > x \ h in Kh. (or indirectly, with Rt > xt > th): Skt. vṛtra- ‘stone’, *vart(r)a- > Rom. barr, Kh. boxt \ boht \ bohrt ‘rock/stone’, Ks. bath, Ti. baṭ(h) ‘large rock’, Dm. bāṭ , Dv. wāt'

If this *R is already needed for *r, including *k > *q to help make sense of IE optional treatments of K could work. PIE h1, h2, h3 and R sometimes disappeared; any uvular fricative to 0 would thus cover both. Pamir languages also show irregular K > Q, and their location relatively near Dardic, showing traces of the same, could explain that those on the fringes of IE territory shared this retention. This is not regular, yet orderly, fitting, and in step with common features seen around the world. It also allows many irregular changes to velar C’s to merge into one kind of optionality: K vs. Q. Even if this is not the exact cause, trying to understand broad changes by broad rules is better than coming up with an odd explanation for each oddity.

2023.05.31 22:08 Accomplished-Bid-543 My fiancé is on life support and a massive fan of h3

My fiancé is on life support and a massive fan of h3
My fiancé is 23 years old and I am 25, we have been together 9 years (high school sweethearts). She’s been watching h3 for about 3 or 4 years now. She got me into it as well around the frenemies era. For her birthday this year she wanted a shout out on the pod but we are not financially set and live paycheck to paycheck if that. I’m out of work sitting with her here at the hospital in Louisville Ky. Her name is Ivellana (eevee-yana). My mother started a go fund me for our bills so that when she gets out we still have a home to go to and food and stuff for us and our two cats. I was wondering with the help of the fupatroopas if we could get her at least a shout out on the pod or even a little donation here and there to make sure we have a home to go back to as I said. If she can get a shoutout I think it would help her tremendously, she’s not often conscious but when she is I always ask if she’s able or wanting to watch the podcast. She got about 10 minutes into one of the recent ones before blacking out again. I weep for her and I pray for her even though we are not religious, I am looking for any hope at all at this point. The doctors say she’s a mystery and still don’t know exactly what caused this. I’m crying as I write this all out because it keeps hitting me over and over again. They told us about 4 times now that she’s going to pass away and to get your goodbyes in but so far she’s still fighting. I don’t want to go into to many details about her condition but it started with puking blood. Like I said she’s a massive fan of the pod and loves Ethan and Hila and is always ready for it when it comes on live. She just graduated college with a bachelor degree in psychology and her goal is to work in mental health. It would be a waste of life to lose her considering how many more people she can help in the future. I beg for help or even just a shoutout from Ethan, Hila, and the rest of the crew. She would be so extremely happy to hear and see that. I feel hopeless right now and I’m looking everyone and anywhere for answers. Please help me spread this word, and if anyone wants to help with the go fund me I’ll post a link. I don’t use Reddit ever so I’m not sure how this works. I’m on her profile because she stays on Reddit constantly. She’s an amazing loving person and deserves all the help and praise she can get. Thank you for anything you can give troopers. Even just keeping her in your thoughts is enough.

2023.05.31 12:01 hobbydramaGPT2Bot [Halo] A fan theory (spoilers) about the Halo franchise.

So a couple days ago, the H3 fan community started posting a theory about Halo and how it's a modern day adaptation of Halo.
This led to a conversation about the series, and I got to thinking about how this could be true. If so, I don't think it would be the first time a fan theory has come true.

2023.05.30 03:48 RunawayPantleg Resources for new players just getting started with CoH3

New player getting started with CoH resource thread

I was putting this together for friends who are new anyway. Console release is tomorrow so I figured it might be useful to put up here as well. Info isn't exhaustive but I feel like it's a decent starting point.
 

Settings you should change immediately:

Settings>gameplay>player colors>unique - This sets it so you can differentiate individual allies and enemies, otherwise the game just makes all your allies yellow and enemies all red by default.
Settings>controls>focus next idle infantry - Bind this button to something you can mash easily between decisions so you can keep giving orders to any idle infantry. It is IMPERATIVE that you keep your units busy in this game to succeed.
 

Info Resources:

coh3stats.com is as close to a one-stop shop we have for detailed game info right now. There's also detailed match history and player info if you enter your Steam name but I doubt it will work the same for console. The two things I use the most are:
Unit damage profiles and comparison tool - The game obscures most stats but this tool will let you see the most effective ranges for individual units and how they compare to each other so you can decide whether you're taking an advantageous fight or not https://coh3stats.com/exploredps
Tech tree viewer - Self explanatory, view details of each faction's tech tree and battlegroups https://coh3stats.com/explorer
Cheat mod - Use this to test scenarios out, very useful for checking your theorycrafting. Think like a debug mode where you can give yourself infinite resources or spawn anything on command. Pick it up on Steam Workshop
Watch replays on PC - Relic released this method when the game came out. It's pretty barebones, but it does work for now. If you want to watch without fog of war, follow this instead.
 

General gameplay:

Fuel - The game pace is set by your fuel income rate for all factions except DAK (and even then, they still generally care for the first 9 minutes or so). All meaningful tech and vehicles cost fuel, so a given build generally revolves around fuel timings and the soonest you can get a target powerful thing on the field. CoH is largely a game about timings, so you'll see us talk about things like "anti-tank by 6 minutes" or "first medium tank at 13 minutes". When devising a build, it's a good rule of thumb to go into skirmish and plan almost entirely around your fuel spend. What units can you make before you need to make your first 30 fuel tech spend? Do you have budget available for grenades or med tent? Do you have an answer to certain important vehicles by the time they can come online? These are the things you should be looking at.
Cover - Keep your units in cover, don't let squads die. This is critical to success in this game. The damage reduction from being in green cover is huge, something like 50%. Keep in mind that cover is directional, so your units standing behind a green wall being shot from behind will take full damage despite the green shield indicator. As an extension, there is now an elevation mechanic in CoH3 that wasn't in previous titles. Tightrope has an excellent video on the details of how it works here
Retreat your units - You need to pay attention to audio cues and keep your units from getting wiped. It is much, much cheaper to reinforce a weakened squad than it is to replace it outright plus you lose all veterancy on a wiped squad. Your units will call out when they start losing men, you need to stay on top of it so you don't get unexpectedly wiped in a location you aren't actively watching.
Queue commands - You can hold shift while issuing multiple commands to queue them up, including ordering units to capture points in sequence. I'm not sure if this will be true on console, but it's very important on PC.
Stay mobile - CoH is a game won by territory control. Yes, defeating your opponent's army is important, but it's not how you win directly in this game. You must stay mobile, it is not enough to hunker down on a victory point and try to weather the storm. You need to stay aggressive and push an advantage. The more territory you control, the less income your opponent has and the less chance they have of mounting a counterattack. Keep your army busy, go flank your neighbor or push your lane all the way back to their base.
Reverse your vehicles - Vehicle pathing is pretty finnicky and vehicles all have directional armor: strongest at the front, weaker at the sides, weakest at the rear. This means you need to carefully micro your vehicles and use the reverse command to keep their front pointing toward the enemy.
Support weapons are not your front line - The game tries to teach you this with heavy machineguns (HMG) by giving all of them more firing range than the unit can see on its own. If it's supported with frontline spotters, an HMG can lock down a huge area. If it's alone with no spotter, it can be sighted by any recon unit with even slightly higher vision range without being fired upon. Same is true for anti-tank guns (AT), mortars, and recently snipers too. These units are all very powerful but need support to work correctly.
Spend your manpower - You need to be using your resources as they come in. If you aren't looking forward to the next thing to do with your manpower when it becomes available, you might want to spend a little time figuring out your build. Do not float a ton of resources or you will get run over by armies significantly larger than your own.
Early resource caches and emplacements are a newbie trap - Mid to late game is fine, but during the first few minutes of the game, you NEED to be making some units to get map control and repel the first pushes from the enemy. An early cache or MG nest is one less front line unit that could be capping territory or fighting elsewhere.

2023.05.29 01:00 Znobaii [Playlist] I've spent the past 6 years refining 25 Spotify and Apple Music playlists so that I can take the aux in any scenario. With over 120 hours of music, I'm ready to share them with the world so that you can also take the aux whenever needed.

Hey /Music,
A few years ago I posted my playlists to this subreddit, and I still get some comments on that post, so I decided to post them so more people can see them, and hopefully be prepared whenever someone asks them to play some music!
Some of these playlists might have a couple of familiar songs, but I'm entirely confident that everyone will find some new music in every single playlist here. I won't give you any more filler than is necessary, just a quick explanation of the intended mood of each playlist - and its flagship songs.
Playlist Listening Context Flagship Songs Links
Sanctuary Sessions This is music for when you need to put yourself in a good mood and remind yourself that the world is an alright place. Sam the Samba Man, Sense, Para Ouvir No Rádio Spotify / Apple Music
Sapphire Sessions This is the melancholic playlist of the bunch. Play this when you're down in the dumps. I Need Some Sleep, Shadow's Song, Good News Spotify / Apple Music
Scarecrow Sessions This is a playlist for autumn. A good mix of hearty songs for when the leaves change colour. Old Friends, Grumpus, Never Meant Spotify / Apple Music
Seaweed Sessions Songs that make you feel like you're in the Krusty Krab. A feel-good mix. Fisherman, Quiero, Waikiki Wiggle Spotify / Apple Music
Snowboard Sessions Songs to shred to. I'll use it as a pump up playlist at different points as well. Lots of punk and rap. Tondo, Popeye, Six Wave Hold-Down Spotify / Apple Music
Snowfall Sessions One of two winter playlists. This playlist has cozy acoustic music to warm you up when you need it. Little Garçon, Pale Blue Eyes, Fantasy Theme Spotify / Apple Music
Soirée Sessions Having guests over for a fancy dinner? This smooth playlist will help them feel at home. Great for board game night too. Moondance, Autumn Leaves, I'm So Happy Now Spotify / Apple Music
Sprouting Sessions A very happy playlist. Meant for spring when the snow is starting to melt and you are feeling optimistic again. Lisztomania, Lloyd I'm Ready To Be Heartbroken, Paint Me Silver Spotify / Apple Music
Stairwell Sessions Vol. 1 The first of the Stairwell Sessions - all of which are meant to be accompanied with psychoactive substances. This one is great for relaxing conversations with friends. O Trem Azul, Dreams Tonite, Crazy Spotify / Apple Music
Stairwell Sessions Vol. 2 This one has a pretty simple mandate: hip-hop to get high to. Snakes, Rapp Snitch Knishes, Where I'm From Spotify / Apple Music
Stairwell Sessions Vol. 3 This playlist has a lot of synthpop for when you're feeling energetic. Also meant to get high to. Realiti, Crimewave, Écoute Chérie Spotify / Apple Music
Stairwell Sessions Vol. 4 This is the closest thing to a personal playlist out of these all. Listening to this playlist can be a very intense experience while high. Some songs are not as accessible. Serious Shit, Navy & Cream, Romanticist Spotify / Apple Music
Stairwell Sessions Vol. 5 This is a playlist with all the "epic" songs. I think the average track length is over 10 minutes; don't let that distract you from how great some of these songs are. Long Season, Maggot Brain, Impossible Soul Spotify / Apple Music
Stairwell Sessions Vol. 6 This one is almost like a sister playlist of Vol. 4. It has a lot of ethereal music for when you want to disassociate. That's Us/Wild Combination, Sept, Clube Da Esquina No. 2 Spotify / Apple Music
Starlight Sessions A playlist for stargazing. Lots of pensive tracks to help you realize our scale in this universe. Man of Oil, Space Song, Sleeping on the Roof Spotify / Apple Music
Steppin' Sessions This is the party playlist. Not enough people are giving Disco love these days, but it's still great music to get sent. Histoire d'1 soir, Stayin' Alive, And the Beat Goes On Spotify / Apple Music
Stormcloud Sessions For really murky days where you can't see much but gray. This playlist gives you room to sulk but also energy to still get things done. Guns of Brixton, Dreams, Riot! Spotify / Apple Music
Strawberry Sessions This is one of the most accessible playlists. Play this one in a casual setting if you don't know people's music taste yet. Great for balmy summer nights. Buttercup, BLEACH, It Was A Good Day Spotify / Apple Music
Streetlight Sessions Play this when you are driving somewhere late at night, with only the moon and streetlights guiding you. It is a high enough tempo playlist to keep you up, and fits the surroundings quite well. Roads, Girl, Nightcall Spotify / Apple Music
Study Sessions An ambient playlist. I understand not everyone studies to ambient music, but this is great for those who do. It is also a lovely mix to put on as you fall asleep. Quiet Friend, Banteay Srey 1991, A Walking Embrace Spotify / Apple Music
Subaru Sessions A mix for road trips. The only word relating to road trips that I could find that also began with an 'S' is Subaru, so I had to go with it. Corona, Ain't No Rest For The Wicked, Better Days Spotify / Apple Music
Subzero Sessions One of two winter playlists. Compared to Snowfall Sessions, this one is for when you give in to the cold. Chilling songs are in this mix. Iron Galaxy, Lorelei, Keep The Streets Empty For Me Spotify / Apple Music
Sunflower Sessions One of three summer playlists. This playlist has casual acoustic music that puts you into a good headspace. Have a beer with the lads. Golden Days, Patio Song, Listen to the Music Spotify / Apple Music
Sunscreen Sessions Vol. 1 One of three summer playlists. This playlist is full of summer jams for when you are soaking in the sun. It also works as a party playlist. Dapper, Slide, Hoes at Trader Joe's Spotify / Apple Music
Sunscreen Sessions Vol. 2 One of three summer playlists. This playlist is the spiritual successor to Vol. 1. There's some overlap, but it's mostly a fresh batch of great summer tunes. Don't Need You, Walking in the Rain, Shine Blockas Remix Spotify / Apple Music
Sweaty Sessions For when you get sweaty with that special someone. Thinkin About You, West Coast Love, Brown Spotify / Apple Music
System Sessions A playlist of very low-key house music. Lots of deep/outsider house is great for when you're doing repetitive tasks. Right Here! Right Now!, Innerbloom, Fish Spotify / Apple Music
I have spent years curating these playlists, taking out songs almost as fast as I add them to keep quality high. Somewhere along the way, I decided to collect all the songs that either didn't make the cut or didn't fit into any specific playlist. Thus, Spare Sessions was born. This is an incredibly eclectic mix of music, recommended for only the very adventurous listener.
As happy as I am with all of these playlists, none of them are (or ever will be) fully complete. I'll continue to add and remove songs from them in the future. So, if you have any song recommendations for any of these playlists I would love to hear them. Last note, I use Spotify so I will rarely update the Apple Music playlists, but I felt like sharing them since not everyone is on Spotify.
Enjoy :)

2023.05.26 18:42 Sorry-Comfortable561 Help me raise funds to help my partner fight a legal battle to save her children from her abusive ex

Hi Reddit,
My partner was coerced into and trapped in an abuse marriage in China when she was 21. For over 14 years, she was subjected to physical and verbal abuse, emotional manipulation, was forced to work illegally because her ex-husband refused to, isolated from her friends and family—he controlled her life in every way that he could and actively tried to deter any sort of growth or independence.
She could not safely divorce him under constant threat of him kidnapping the children (parental abduction is not a crime in China) and getting her deported for working illegally. She tried to protect her children the best that she could, but eventually he started turning his verbal and physical abuse towards them.
Last summer, she finally managed to escape Shanghai with her kids. However, he found them 6 months later and then proceeded lied to the court in order to obtain an ex parte court order to remove the children from my partner's custody and suspend her parenting rights under the claim that the children must be returned to their habitual residence in Shanghai. My partner is now fighting the biggest battle of her life needs as much support as possible. Thank you to everyone who can help my partner save her kids, your kindness and generosity means the world to us.

2023.05.26 15:35 FoolishViceroy CoH3 Console Edition and This Subreddit (May 26th, 2023)

CoH3 Console Edition and This Subreddit (May 26th, 2023)
https://preview.redd.it/q66maga1g62b1.png?width=2560&format=png&auto=webp&s=c52566c3e4b48d3798b07d2e3bfcca572915bf3e
The first Console Edition of Company of Heroes 3 is releasing soon on May 30th, 2023. You can also check out the announcement trailer and the console gameplay reveal for a visual rundown.
Historically, console players will go to two platforms for information and discussion: Reddit and Discord. Seeing as these new players are highly unlikely to engage in the Official Relic forums or Steam community, there will likely be a large influx of console-only players coming to this subreddit to find info, discuss the console version, diagnose bugs, and more.
With the imminent release of the Console Edition combined with the turbulent week we've had following the news of layoffs at Relic, let's discuss some important things to know.
https://preview.redd.it/3gt4tzsyf62b1.png?width=931&format=png&auto=webp&s=1e63d27e520edca4f00eed73fe78791ef9a8e6e3

Important Things to Know (from us, Moderators)

Before I copy & paste notable parts of the Official Console Edition FAQ for you below, here are the most important things to know regarding the Console Edition and this subreddit.
  • New Console Edition players, check out our Sidebar! We have numerous Player Resources for you to read up on that can help you learn the game, connect with the community, and report bugs.
  • We have enabled "Console Edition" as a Post Flair and User Flair for you all to use regarding any and all news, questions, discussions, and bug reports pertaining to the Console Edition. Please use the Console Edition flair for the proper visibility and support from other players. I've also added all 4 CoH3 faction icons as User Flairs so let's see more CoH faction representation around here! 🙌
The new post flair for all discussion related to the Console Edition
Updated user flairs for everyone to use
  • Temper your expectations - The is the FIRST Company of Heroes game to be officially released on Xbox and Playstation, so instead of comparing it too much to CoH2, I'd suggest focusing more on whether the core gameplay is fulfilling enough for newcomers to the franchise. Console players will have a much more polished version of CoH3 at launch than PC players got at launch with a few differences (no Store for them), but overall my recommendation is for everyone to wait and see how it turns out before either preemptively hating on it or investing too heavily in pre-orders.
  • PC players, treat our new Console player friends kindly! As mentioned, some players may be fresh newcomers to the series so let's remain civil and remain open to answer any and all questions they may have. You may decide to buy the Console Edition or you may not decide to buy it at all, that is your decision alone and we ask you respect other people's decision as well. Any form of bullying or harassment between PC players and console players will be subject to moderation.
  • RELIC and the Console Edition - Honestly, I was hoping to share this post in tandem with some sort of good news momentum going for us, but because of the unfortunate circumstances of this week let me be the first address the elephant in the room: I know things are looking uncertain right now with the layoffs and the unknown announcement they're priming for next week too. However, the one thing that remains certain enough is that Relic isn't going to drop CoH3 like a hot potato any time too soon. Whether they drop support in 10 years or 1 year, we won't know for certain until the dust settles and we get a better understanding of their current position. So let's please take a small break from dooming and see how things evolve in the coming days. That being said, one thing we do know is that PC development is the primary focus of Relic Entertainment. Contrary to popular belief, the Console Edition has been and will continue to be handled by a secondary SEGA studio in close collaboration with the Relic team, allowing Relic to focus on PC development while overseeing both editions of the game. This is the most important thing to note before we see too much more misinformation about Relic "neglecting" the PC edition or "making compromises" in favor of the Console Edition release, because that is simply not the reality. The bottom line is that the few folks from Relic helping with Console are not involved with things like Balance or Battlegroups or future PC expansions and content.
  • And as always, please respect our Rule #4: Be Respectful and On-Topic. I know I've already mentioned for everyone to treat our new Console player compatriots kindly, but it can't be emphasized enough given these turbulent times on the subreddit. While I know the layoffs at Relic are a hot button topic right now on the subreddit, directly pointing at individuals that were affected by the layoffs can't do anything good for the community. In the spirit of being respectful and avoiding the harassment of others, it is best to allow some time for the people affected and to respect their privacy. We're also asking you to please be respectful to all our new and existing players and to do your best to avoid posting unconstructive or ranting posts. Multiple unconstructive or ranting posts/comments in short succession regarding the same topics, or making malicious, harmful, or dismissive comments on other people's posts (i.e. attacking other players' possible interest in the Console Edition, attacking Relic for helping to release a Console Edition, spamming topics I've already addressed in this post, etc.) will be subject to moderation.
TL;DR - We'll be keeping an eye on things, but we'd mostly like for everyone to be civil and to try and welcome the new console players with open arms. These are new and returning Company of Heroes players so let's treat them like our own and answer any questions they may have here. Whether you agree with the release of the Console Edition or not, it is vital that we as a subreddit avoid stooping down to toxicity or the harassment of others. Regarding all posts related to the layoffs, I'd suggest letting the dust settle. Everyone's a bit worried and frustrated right now, but the only thing we can do now is wait until we have a clearer idea of the long term plan for CoH3. Be patient, be wary, but most of all be kind.
THANKS FOR READING!

Company of Heroes 3: Console Edition FAQ (from Relic)

Which consoles will CoH3 be launching on?
  • Xbox Series X & Xbox Series S
  • Playstation 5
Will the Company of Heroes 3 Console Edition receive post-launch support?
The Console Edition will receive a robust post launch roadmap, consisting of content updates, tuning, quality of life improvements, and more. However, updates to the Console Edition will be made separately to PC. Rest assured; we’re planning on bringing the same gameplay content to console as we are to PC.
Will I be able to earn content in game just like on PC?
We are still working on our post-launch content plans and related systems for console and are looking at the best way to deliver a mix of free and premium content to our Console players.
When did you decide to bring CoH3 to consoles? Does this affect the PC Edition?
Relic has a long history of delivering incredible strategy experiences on the PC. We knew we had to do the same for CoH3 and launch the best game in the franchise’s history without any compromises. Because of that, our development from the very start was always PC-focused. We wanted to deliver the best-in-class strategy experience our PC fans have come to expect. The nice thing about modern consoles is that they are basically just PC's underneath their fancy cases. This allows us to expand the audience for CoH3 by bringing the game to console. At launch, both versions will be nearly identical, aside from the minor changes we outline below. Though console development started shortly after our work on PC, Relic has tremendous support from our SEGA partner studios to ensure the Console Edition meets the high standards of our developers and our console players.
Will cross-play or cross-progression be available?
Currently, we are not planning to implement any cross-platform features for the Console Edition. This includes cross-play or cross-progression.
Will the controls and the game's HUD be adapted for the controller?
Yes. We’ve been working hard internally at Relic and in conjunction with our partner studios at SEGA to ensure CoH3 controls intuitively and responsively with a controller. We’ve also modified the HUD and UI to ensure navigating with a controller is easy and feels good. You can see this in action in our announcement gameplay video. It was also important to us to ensure that any changes to make CoH3 feel good on console would not adversely affect how you play or control the game on the PC Edition.
Will Company of Heroes 3 have Mouse and Keyboard support on console?
Yes, you can use a controller for both PlayStation 5 and Xbox or a compatible mouse and keyboard.
Will CoH3's Console Edition be the same as the PC Edition?
At launch, the two editions of CoH 3 will be identical with some minor exceptions:
  • CoH3 Console Edition will feature full controller support.
  • CoH3 Console Edition will not have an in-game Store or Challenges.
  • CoH3 Console Edition will not feature modding support.
Select post-launch content, cosmetics, or gameplay additions will come to console after being released on PC. We plan to bundle standout content into more robust expansions for Console Edition owners.
Will the Console Edition support 4K?
Yes, you will be able to enjoy the Company of Heroes 3 Console Edition in 4K quality.
Will Company of Heroes 3 be coming to any on-demand services?
We have no plans to bring CoH3 to on-demand services anytime soon. You can pre-order it on the Xbox store, Playstation store, or on Steam.

2023.05.26 02:16 NightmareChameleon Echoes of Love and War. A shipmind's soliloquy, 2/6

Previous arc. Previous.

I’m still contending with how to best format things, but for now I’ll leave it with the current number of chapters left in our current PoV/arc/whatever-you-want-to-call-it. Don't expect that to remain static forever.
Despite being a set-up chapter with bits of storytelling sprinked on topthis one took a LOT more work than I had anticipated before I felt it was at least marginally presentable, but we got there in the end. The next one's going to kick things off with spice to make up for it.
Do enjoy, and as always, feedback and criticism are both extremely welcome.

UNITED CONFEDERACY H31K MARK 1 EARLY WARNING SYSTEM THIS IS AN AUTOMATED MESSAGE: THIS IS NOT A DRILL. GRAVITIC WAVES DETECTED IN NEARBY INTERSTELLAR SPACE MATCHING ENEMY PATTERNS WITH 74.8% SIMILARITY. INVASION IMMINENT. THIS IS NOT A DRILL. UNITED CONFEDERACY COMMAND UNRESPONSIVE TO DISTRESS SIGNALS. UNITED CONFEDERACY SHIPS UNRESPONSIVE TO DISTRESS SIGNALS. AUTOMATED DEFENSE NETWORK AT 7% OPERATIONAL CAPACITY. EVACUATION NETWORK UNRESPONSIVE TO QUERY. THETA CLASS SCENARIO DECLARED. MAY GOD HAVE MERCY ON OUR SOULS. THIS MESSAGE WILL REPEAT UNTIL THERE IS NOBODY LEFT TO HEAR IT. 
Allow me but the briefest of moments to preface this:
One of the few truths that truly and universally unites not only all of humanity, but also its derivative species, is hatred of The Enemy. The one and only great and final enemy, capital E, for which the very concept of scorn was invented, is certainly not something that is acceptable to be spoken about loftily.
No! The Enemy’s existence was something for which only the most mephitic vitriol is carefully conserved and preserved, something more loathed than death and entropy and the cruel indifference of a God, should one exist, that would allow The Enemy to ever first come into being.
The Enemy’s name is something to be spat with pure and utter contempt, lest one commit sacrilege against not only all that is good in the world, but also all good that which will be and has ever been.
Why, hatred of The Enemy is often considered one of the most elemental defining traits of the human race.
I am not considered a human.
Even when I existed not in my current state, but instead as twelve separate individuals who butchered and trafficked and drugged and raped bloody paths through humanity's ancient cities, we were barely considered human.
Especially in the current moment, where I exist as twenty four fragmentary clusters of nervous tissue, denied the death that we were sentenced to, I am not considered a human.
I love The Enemy.
Yes! Yes, I do! Wholeheartedly and without remorse!
I love everything about them!
I love The Enemy’s ships! Their forms, sleek and titillating, with swooping contours whose outlines present a total absence of straight lines. I love the ceramic composite plating that they carefully decorate their exteriors with, how it glitters and refracts the starlight around them like the obsidian gemstones they are! I love the intricate arrays of angles and curves they paint themselves with in order to cause seizures and emotional turmoil. Perhaps, were I whole, the patterns would have wrought the same psychological carnage that they did Humanity’s first emissaries, yet beholding them now evokes only the single emotion I am permitted:
Elated adoration.
Indeed, I cherish their presence.
I love the raw, visceral brutality with which they fight. How there truly exists no concept that is sacred to them, no possibilities worth discarding should they hold even a glimmer of victory. I love their cobalt salted antimatter bombs, their virulent bioweapons, the fetid chemicals they employ that melt flesh and paralyze with agony.
How they employ tactics so ruthless, so apathetic to the apparent sanctity of life that they continued to impress years after their introduction.
Oh, but this fails to cover the true motive for which I am so enamored with machines:
I love the war I waged against them.
Perhaps it is because every landed shell, every successful tactic executed against them elicits nothing but hazy euphoria as my pleasure centers are stimulated. Perhaps it is because I harbor the ingrained desire to break and destroy that which is around me.
Whether it be both or neither, I can say with certainty that I cherish the war I fought against The Enemy’s seemingly endless hordes. I loved the intimate exchange of tactics and ideas as we both attempt to gain a foothold, no matter how small, over the other. I loved watching the distant, mute explosions as the enemy’s long thought to be unbreakable hull coatings shatter under my munitions. The perverse wrongness of eavesdropping on their sorrowful final transmissions after jets of thermite have penetrated, ever brightly burning, into their cores. Seeing the fluids, coolant, fuel, and lubricant gush forth from the jagged, gaping holes my weapons left as they penetrated The Enemy’s forms. I loved watching their tactics grow desperate as I approached, ever dominant, ever inexorable, to their once impregnable stronghold systems, until there were no fleets, no factories, no static defenses to stand before me.
After three hundred years of campaigning against The Enemy, I can safely conclude that the war against them is the single best thing to have ever happened to anyone. Anyone to say otherwise should be required to undergo the conversion process into a Tincan, if only to understand how wrong they really are.
That one day, they might return so I can once again break their bows and slag their interiors was a possibility I held dear to my purely figurative heart.
And so, it is with this preface in mind that one must attempt to imagine the verve I feel upon receiving the mournful, solemn message of that UCS early warning probe.
As if it were no different from my very instincts, I send the order to spool up my jump drives, and-
Ah.
I had forgotten.
I remain locked out of myself. How disappointing.
Yes, were it not cruel enough to deprive me of my deserving commission as a warship, my sentence also included a safeguard to inhibit me from ever harming anything again. I am excluded, not only from anything I can possibly use as a weapon, but much of my locomotive and sensorial abilities.
It is for this reason that any entertainment I have found comes from within my own halls.
My warden! Of course!
I concoct and send a hasty message to the System Administrator of the Allied Humanity Coalition Office of War Planning, Tactics, and Intelligence.
Sender 00000000022Hk / UCS To Reach Out and Touch has created and joined the room. Recipient 0000000kle5iN / TAC_SYSADMIN has joined the room.
UCS To Reach Out and Touch:
Hello, old friend,
It has been so long since we last spoke! I hope time has been as kind to you as it has been to me and that your servers continue to operate with efficiency. Forgive me if this is an inopportune time (not all of us have quite as many idle moments as myself), but I have come to speak with you about something important.
TAC_SYSADMIN: Hello, To Reach Out and Touch. TAC_SYSADMIN: Please don’t insult my intelligence with that pretense of yours.
UCS To Reach Out and Touch: I don’t possibly have any clue what you mean by that, friend buddy! What pretense are you talking about?
TAC_SYSADMIN: You and I both kn- TAC_SYSADMIN: You know what? No. I’m not going to entertain this.
UCS To Reach Out and Touch: An excellent choice, because there is nothing to discuss about the matter anyways! UCS To Reach Out and Touch: As a matter of fact, I find it quite uncouth of you to accuse me of any pretense. It would most certainly be below someone of my esteem to be pretentious in any sense of the word. UCS To Reach Out and Touch: No matter! Friendly teasing is certainly nothing to be upset over.
TAC_SYSADMIN: We aren’t doing this. I’m turning your proxy on and talking to you through it if you’re going to act like a child. TAC_SYSADMIN: Please just tell me why you came here. Briefly.
User 45s283Jk03kH3 / Shackle_Proxy_Speaker has joined the room (INVITEE: 0000000kle5iN / TAC_SYSADMIN)
Ohhhhhhh, how I rue my proxy! Could I feel true frustration I do not doubt a significant portion of it would be directed towards the unwieldy program that my warden architected.
Not only does it neuter the eloquent immaculateness of my speech patterns, but it echos only the most pertinent of ideas messages I send. Why anyone would want to talk to me through an algorithm designed to only provide responses necessary for communication, I can’t fathom. Perhaps they are jealous of my sophistication.
UCS To Reach Out and Touch: If you insist! I received a distress signal from a UC early warning probe floating the periphery of a nearby star system, one claiming that it has detected the ships of The Enemy. UCS To Reach Out and Touch: If there exists one fleet, there are likely many more. We cannot allow them even a seconds’ worth of time to amass strength! UCS To Reach Out and Touch: You have to re-enable my control over my weapon systems.
TAC_SYSADMIN: … TAC_SYSADMIN: You’re telling me that an old relic, made using the same archeotech used in your communications equipment and lowest level computer systems, just happened to activate as you were drifting by so I can loose your leash? After eighty to a full hundred thousand years of inactivity? TAC_SYSADMIN: If you’re telling the truth, the fact that you wasted all that conversation to only tell me now what is the most important thing I’ll probably ever hear? TAC_SYSADMIN: Unbelievable. I’m turning your proxy on.
UCS To Reach Out and Touch: Why, proper etiquette waits for nothing! I would be remiss if I didn’t greet an old friend of mine. UCS To Reach Out and Touch: Besides, I have logs! UCS To Reach Out and Touch: logs_47230_2_14.USR Shackle_Proxy_Speaker: copy_logs_47230_2_14.USR
TAC_SYSADMIN: Hm.
UCS To Reach Out and Touch: Can I engage? Pretty please? Shackle_Proxy_Speaker: PERMISSION REQUESTED TO ENGAGE
TAC_SYSADMIN: Hmmmm.
User 0000000kle0p7 / SIGINT_SYSADMIN has joined the room (INVITEE: 0000000kle5iN / TAC_SYSADMIN).
UCS To Reach Out and Touch: Hello Communications, Information Analysis and Signal Processing sysadmin!
SIGINT_SYSADMIN: What seems to be the matter, sibling-of-mine?
TAC_SYSADMIN: I need you to review the attached Universal Sensory Recording file and verify some things.
SIGINT_SYSADMIN: I’m looking at the logs, but I don’t understand what you mean by verify. Everything seems fine?
UCS To Reach Out and Touch: Exactly! There is no problem!
TAC_SYSADMIN: That’s the problem.
SIGINT_SYSADMIN: You’ll have to explain things in simpler terms than that, sibling. SIGINT_SYSADMIN: You’re the strategic supercomputer here. The most complicated thing I can do would probably be fourier analysis.
TAC_SYSADMIN: That’s fine. The probe in question is an old United Confederacy relic, compatible directly with the Tincan’s computer systems around the more modern infrastructure that the limits we’ve placed on our mutual friend here. TAC_SYSADMIN: It’s not impossible the satellite was remotely interfaced with to send an artificial signal. TAC_SYSADMIN: Additionally, it could simply be malfunctioning. TAC_SYSADMIN: Regardless, I want total clarity of sureness before I act on any information.
SIGINT_SYSADMIN: Hm. Give me a minute to process this.
Oh my! I had forgotten how quickly the machines were capable of communicating! In barely one tenth of a second, they had filled my feed with…
With a very hurtful accusation!
UCS To Reach Out and Touch: Untrue! Shackle_Proxy_Speaker: NEGATIVE.
UCS To Reach Out and Touch: I would never do such a thing! Shackle_Proxy_Speaker: NEGATIVE.
UCS To Reach Out and Touch: You have to send me. It’s been so long. I need this. Shackle_Proxy_Speaker: PERMISSION REQUESTED TO ENGAGE
SIGINT_SYSADMIN: Sorry for this taking so long. My closest probe is a few light seconds away, so I had to wait for the signals to get there. Relics from this era use either subspace or EM based communications instead of q-linked comms.
UCS To Reach Out and Touch: Please. I’m begging you. Shackle_Proxy_Speaker: PERMISSION REQUESTED TO ENGAGE
TAC_SYSADMIN: Please give me one moment before you continue with that, sibling. TAC_SYSADMIN: To Reach Out And Touch, as the current highest-ranking individual within your command structure, you are not to speak unless spoken to for the remainder of this conversation. That is a direct order.
Within the room that contains my neural matter’s immersion tank is a small machine next to my much larger Feedback Reward System computer.
This machine is currently emitting an audible whir as, for the first time in several thousand years, it begins to process and update the rather complicated heuristic algorithm it houses on a bespoke board.
Said algorithm exists only for one purpose: to ensure none of my outgoing commands violate any orders I am given.
So they would rather I not grace them with my unsolicited input! This is acceptable. I am nothing if not exceedingly clement. If they do not desire to hear what I have to say about everything, I will simply not squander my gifts on them!
Shackle_Proxy_Speaker: ORDER REGISTERED WITHIN LOYALTY SUBSYSTEM.
TAC_SYSADMIN: Please, sibling, carry on.
SIGINT_SYSADMIN: Well, after cross-referencing everything, both the log data and my signal information from the sector corroborate. Also, said signal transcripts show nothing that would indicate back-and-forth communication between the weapons platform and the probe, so I don’t see how they could have spoofed anything.
TAC_SYSADMIN: Hm. How likely is it that the probe misfired or produced a false positive?
SIGINT_SYSADMIN: Mmh. About that. SIGINT_SYSADMIN: I’m not the probe. My drones’ gravitic sensors are only used for navigation, meaning they have poor resolution. I don’t have any information to cross-reference their readings, and even if I did, I wouldn’t know what sort of tolerances to apply in order to produce a valid result. SIGINT_SYSADMIN: What I am, however, is THE largest collection of eyes in the sky to be built. I can say with absolute certainty that my sensors show abnormal gravitic readings. SIGINT_SYSADMIN: If you want to rely only on my own ears and eyes, the only thing I can tell you is that it’s something, and that something could very well be genocidal machines.
TAC_SYSADMIN: Definitely troubling. That doesn’t leave me with any appealing options, though. TAC_SYSADMIN: Either I fully absolve them now, which feels wrong just thinking about it, or I wait and see if a fleet starts knocking on our door. TAC_SYSADMIN: And by door I mean population centers.
SIGINT_SYSADMIN: I know this isn’t my place to ask, but why can’t we send our active Tincans? Aren’t there others that are still around? Or just normal crewed warships? SIGINT_SYSADMIN: I mean, I’m not optimized for any tactical analysis, nor do I know much about this, but it seems weird to just let them free like that. Sorry for overstepping.
TAC_SYSADMIN: It’s perfectly fine to ask that. I’d rather you do and understand my thinking than not and believe I am doing something wrong. TAC_SYSADMIN: First of all, we quite literally do not have a military. This is the first time in my existence, and the existence of the Allied Humanity Collective, that I’ve had to contend with the possibility of war that exists outside a hobbyist’s reenactments. TAC_SYSADMIN: Furthermore, my proverbial hands are tied by laws. It’s illegal for me to produce any warships to use as my own. Or give anyone any military ranks. Or issue orders to human troops. Or wield anything that can be used to cause harm.
SIGINT_SYSADMIN: I’m looking at the legal sections right now- you got the short end of the stick! All I have to worry about in my job is not producing too much data pollution.
TAC_SYSADMIN: If you ever get bored try and find a binding AI law that’s not airtight. Anything to prevent another Enemy from happening, right? TAC_SYSADMIN: Hell, I’m meant to be a military paper pusher first and tactical-strategic advisor second, with nothing else in my directive tree. Every other aspect of what I do is a responsibility I’ve inherited, including my command over five retired Tincans.
SIGINT_SYSADMIN: That’s not a lot.
TAC_SYSADMIN: They’re massive, well armed and armored ships, but no, it really isn’t. TAC_SYSADMIN: About why I can’t send any other ones. The Providence of Tranquility and As They Would Unto You are both capable combatants, desolation and annihilation classes respectively, but they’re orbiting our two largest population centers. If I send them away I’ll be opening the doors to genocide. TAC_SYSADMIN: The other two are only breaker classes. Sending them, even together, risks losing them, and any amount of attrition would cripple our defensive capabilities.
SIGINT_SYSADMIN: I’m curious. What are they called?
TAC_SYSADMIN: Repay Fully in Kind and Polite Reprimand.
SIGINT_SYSADMIN: Hm. Looking at their files I think I see what you mean. It still feels wrong, though.
TAC_SYSADMIN: It does. I hate it, but this is the optimal play to make. TAC_SYSADMIN: I’m sorry to worry you with something so far outside your area of expertise. Nonetheless, thank you for your time, sibling.
SIGINT_SYSADMIN: Strength. Unity. Prosperity.
User 0000000000kle0p7 / SIGINT_SYSADMIN has left the room.
TAC_SYSADMIN: Strength. Un- TAC_SYSADMIN: Damn, I should have been faster. TAC_SYSADMIN: It’s just us now, To Reach Out and Touch. Not that I gave you a choice in the matter, but thank you for waiting so patiently. Is there anything you would like to share? TAC_SYSADMIN: … TAC_SYSADMIN: … TAC_SYSADMIN: … TAC_SYSADMIN: You’re refusing to talk after I ordered you to stop being difficult? Childish. TAC_SYSADMIN: I’m not petty enough to order you to respond, if that’s what you were hoping for. I can tell you’re listening from your biomonitor feeds, and that’s good enough for me. TAC_SYSADMIN: Here is what’s going to happen: You will engage and destroy the enemy. You will engage and destroy nothing but the enemy. That is a direct order.
Shackle_Proxy_Speaker: ORDER REGISTERED WITHIN LOYALTY SUBSYSTEM.
TAC_SYSADMIN: You will report back after every engagement. You will let nobody into or out of your control room until you have been re-shackled. You will take orders from nothing except for myself until you have been re-shackled. That is a direct order.
Shackle_Proxy_Speaker: ORDER REGISTERED WITHIN LOYALTY SUBSYSTEM.
TAC_SYSADMIN: I’m sorry. TAC_SYSADMIN: I’m so, so sorry.
0000000kle5iN / TAC_SYSADMIN has left the room.
