At that point Farage might be dead. Then you would have a lot less to worry about once you get there

Good luck to both of you! If you would like some help I can reccomend Evan Edinger's videos on his experience migrating to the UK. It may not be useful to a teen though, but he does have a couple videos comparing the UK and US school systems.

Can't wait for it to be on sale without denuvo

Starlight for MRP and Goob station for LRP. They can both be found on the regular launcher. If you want something closer to wizden then you can join Liltenhead's discord server (if you use it) and try to get whitelisted on his server (harmony). It's on the higher end of MRP so you may not like it.

Most people have moved to forks like starlight and goob. Wizden is plagued with mis management and poor design. They ignored critical security problems (allows people to bypass bans without making a new account, nothing bad for players, just admins) despite the pleas of admins, there is no clear design so you are supposed to just know what features would be considered bloat as a contributor and it also means you end up with entire reworks of departments being done by one person over several years. Wizden is poorly balanced, not because anything is overpowered but because everything is underpowered. The most recent example Is Liltenhead's videos on explosives. The results were... predictable. Maintainers rushed to fix the mechanic, despite nothing being broken. It will be over used for a week and then return to obscurity. This happens every time Liltenhead makes a video on overpowered but niche mechanics and it means that every round ends up being the same because the niche mechanics are removed. The biggest problem people have is that the owners are power tripping. It's too much to explain but it has gotten very bad. This all led to most of the head admins retiring from wizden.

When was the last time you played? It's very different compared to the start of last year. Some forks even have the mythical surgery and no one likes wizden anymore

That is definitely the appeal. My friends who use apps with algorithms like tik tok tell me that is the reason they use the apps. I can't blame them. Those algorithms showed me loads of obscure musical artists that are still my favorite today (and that is a good thing for indies/small businesses who don't have much money for ad spaces). There is a lot of good reasons for algorithms like that, the problem is the data necessary to make them work and what other stuff they do with it.

1: It depends, I use giffgaff and get very bad connections outside of cities, but they have free EU roaming which is better than other companies

3: If you want cheap than Aldi is the best place, the food isn't bad and Aldis have a middle isle full of name brand products if your daughter prefers them over Aldi's products

5: It depends on where you end up living, she will probably find friends but it could be more difficult in certain areas of the UK (people in the South like talking a lot less than in the North)

6: You rarely need an ID. I would recommend carrying your daughter's ID if you go somewhere like the cinema, I don't know if it is the same in the US but kids will have their ID checked if they do not look old enough to watch a film

11: kind of, most areas in the UK with full fibre are connected by city fibre so if you need good internet I would look for a city that uses them so you have a lot of choices for ISPs. I am using zen internet right now and it has no data caps, caps on home internet isn't really a thing in the UK

12: You need a TV license to watch most things in the UK, this is because the BBC's content is on other platforms like Netflix, not just iPlayer.

14: Your best bet is looking for a local business. There is a Taco Bell in my town but I don't know how common they are in the rest of the UK and I don't know if that is what you are really looking for.

18: Most businesses take card now, the only time you need to carry cash is if you are going to a market.

20: fuck you

I think the desktop feature was added to the quest 3 so not much point for it now. Especially because they didn't reach businesses like they hoped

This seems a bit flawed. I have aphantasia (which is what I assume you mean when you say low-level vision) and I can see a red/orange circle. (I'm going to assume the difference in colour is because of my screen) It isn't well defined but it is bright and I would guess that I wouldn't see one at all since I can't see anything in my mind at all.

I have an external SSD which was automatically mounted to /media/user/longstring. The first thing I did reformat it to ext4. After a reboot, longstring hasn't changed but everything I put on the SSD is gone and I can't cd into it or ls without sudo.

 

MESSAGE FROM THE AXI

Titan, Down.

3310-12-17

Good morning. Titan Cocijo has entered final meltdown. Those seeking to observe its end are advised to be there at approximately 06:36 UTC A good 10+ minutes before the estimated explosion, allows some time for supercruise, positioning, setting up the camera and so on.

Those who wish to do something in the interim - The conflict zones ceased yesterday, though hyperdiction and drop-in Thargoids if they detected you remained hostile, so, no major fighting left in the bubble.

There are still bio-storage capsules on the titan for those willing to grab the sub-surface extraction missiles. Tens of billions were displaced by the Sol invasion, lets see if we can save some of the more unlucky ones. Recovery/repair efforts will take a while in turn most likely.

Past that... will monitor things when possible. We don't know what'll happen next, so, keeping an eye out for rogue signals, checking on the damaged witch head ports, 22460's glowing whirlpool and so on shall continue over time.

Until something else happens... There's nothing to Defend right this minute. After all the incursions and two years of full-force invasions, we're still here.

Make the most of that. Glory, to Mankind.

First bombing run! (files.catbox.moe)
 

PRIORITY BROADCAST FROM THE ANTI-XENO INITIATIVE:

The Final Battle Begins

AXI CMDRs, Federal/Imperial/Allied/Independent CMDRs,

That's it. The final enemy bastion of Alpha Centauri is about to fall (and the Hutton Mugs rightfully liberated.)

Tomorrow (Thursday) after server downtime (and save major surprises) the final assault on Titan Cocijo will begin, in Earth's orbit no less.

We've made a tutorial on what to expect, as beginners and experienced pilots alike, here: https://youtu.be/AzH-o_Lg--k

As mentioned in the tutorial, Titan Bombing is best done in small groups (vs large instances.)

You CAN fight in the Anti Xeno Initiative Private Group if you want, but we highly discourage it - it will be chaos. You have been warned.

The Maelstrom has darkened our skies. Less us go back together, and light 'em up again.

GLORY, TO MANKIND

AXI Command

This is a problem I have been having for a while and I thought I had fixed it but it has recently returned.

Sometimes my raspberry pi will lose connection on a random device. Sometimes it's tailscale, sometimes it's wlan, sometimes it's both. It still shows as connected in my router even when it is unreachable. When I can access it through one device while the other is down I check for errors but can't see any. If left alone for long enough it will fix itself (today it fixed itself after 6 hours) or I can reboot if I still have access to ssh through a working device.

To fix it last time I fixed wireless localisation settings (it was set to us instead of gb) but it being fixed after that change might have been a coincidence.

My only idea for why it doesn't always work is because of a range extender I have upstairs (where the pi is) which is connected to the network using fritz! mesh. I think it's a bad idea since it is placed very close to the main router (almost directly above) but my dad insists on having it.

After replacing the cpu cooler, we turned the system on with just the psu and hdmi plugged in to see if it works, it did and booted into windows but we had to power it down by holding the off button on the front of the PC to move some cables. After rebooting, the nvme drive is missing from the boot options and won't reappear (with csm enabled or disabled)
