I wanted to for 3 but never did get the info for what I wanted to do anything that requires gfx art rendering ect I can't do. I'm also not really sure what I want that's why I'm looking right now.

There are game assets such as doors, you don't have to make them from scratch.

My diabetes is going for blood sugar high scores that the meter can't read, there is a raging high wind thunderstorm with full-auto lightning strikes that just started, not ominous whatsoever. One thing or another kills everyone.

yeah but that does require learning to use GECK. I might just have to look into it.

that sounds pretty bad is it a tropical storm or just regular?

It's the same whacky weather pattern affecting the lower half of the US. Here in Miami for as long as I have tropical storms and category 1 hurricanes are laughable, category 2 is respectable and anything above is survivable thusfar. It's these supercells spawning twisters that are the issue, I hate those shits after close calls with them and have tornado nightmares. Storm chasers are patently suicidal.

Edit:// I don't know about anyone else but I'll take a raincheck on Russian roullete's excitement indefinitely.

Storm chasers have a 1 in 6 probability of being caught by a tornado when they operate within close proximity to the storm's path. This probability implies that for every six chases, there is a significant chance that one could result in a direct impact by a tornado. This level of risk usually arises under the following conditions:

Core Punching: This involves driving through the center of a thunderstorm, which can lead to unexpected encounters with tornadoes that are obscured by rain and hail.

Limited Visibility: Chasing in conditions with poor visibility, such as at night or in heavy rain, increases the risk of inadvertently driving into a tornado.

Rapidly Changing Storm Dynamics: Tornadoes can form quickly and move unpredictably, sometimes making it difficult for chasers to stay out of their path.

Close Range Chasing: Some storm chasers aim to get very close to tornadoes for better data and visuals, increasing their exposure to the risk.

The 1 in 6 probability highlights the importance of caution when chasing tornadoes.

oh that shit. yeah there's been some nasty ass weather this spring.

People getting the hell out of Dodge when a twister is headed their way having head-on collisions with deathwish storm chasers on a kite flying expedition in zero visibility deluge rainfall conditions compounded by reduced visibility if it's at night make staying put less worrisome. One thing or another kills everyone anyway.



But anything for likes and subscribers with reckless endangerment and 1 in 6 probability of direct impact by a tornado but nobody is playing Russian roullete as a hobby.

Qualification to be an experienced storm chaser leading a kite flying expedition into a tornado: not dead yet.

Also, they might want to have a go at leading an expedition to the "DO NOT GO THERE" region of 'Death Mountain' for experienced leadership qualification in snow storm chasing. Might encounter 'unknown compelling force' to study, under the auspices of science.

that is bat shit crazy.
is there a named mental disorder for a person with no fear? I feel like I've heard about such a thing before but it would have been many years ago.

Sine timore is Latin for without fear, sinetimore is the word for that condition.

After studying the forensic evidence in the Dyatlov Pass incident I ruled out high wind hypothesis because the tent was not blown over. I ruled out heavy snowfall or avalanche because tent was not buried. I ruled out human or animal activity because only the expedition's members tracks were found. I ruled out anything of imminent danger causing an initial panic because they left the tent in orderly and fashion after cutting the tent to exit it without running. The only thing that remains as cause for it is psychological distress caused by a vehement argument over the plan to survive the harsh conditions and the threat being mutiny or a violent fight breaking out. All the factors taken from forensics detailing exact sequence of events and ruling out implausible theories which are speculation aside, I can imagine the scenario as a story to write 'based on a true story'..



In the heart of the Ural Mountains, nine intrepid adventurers embarked on an expedition into the frigid wilderness. Led by Igor Dyatlov, they were united by their shared passion for exploration, but as they ventured deeper into the snow-covered landscape, tensions simmered beneath the surface, waiting to erupt like a dormant volcano.

Night fell, and the biting cold crept into their bones as they huddled inside their tent. The atmosphere grew increasingly tense as the wind howled outside. Igor, the group's leader, argued vehemently for pressing on despite the worsening weather. "We can't afford to waste time," he insisted, his voice laced with urgency.

But dissent brewed among the group. Yuri, Lyudmila, and Georgiy voiced their concerns, urging caution in the face of the storm. "We should wait it out," they argued, their voices mingling with the wind.

The debate escalated, each word cutting through the icy air like a knife. Others, like Alexander, Zinaida, Rustem, Nikolai, and Semyon, remained silent, their thoughts a whirlwind of fear and uncertainty.

Faced with dissent and mounting pressure, Igor relented, reluctantly agreeing to evacuate the tent. With trembling hands, they cut through the fabric, their breath visible in the cold night air.

As they emerged into the darkness, the bitter wind whipped at their faces, stinging like a thousand needles. But there was no turning back now. They trudged through the snow, their footprints a silent testament to their struggle.

At the edge of the forest, they sought refuge beneath the shelter of a towering cedar tree. Desperation gnawed at their hearts as they attempted to build a fire, their hands numb with cold.

But as the flames flickered weakly, illuminating their weary faces, the realization dawned upon them – they were lost, adrift in a sea of white.

"We should go back to the tent," Zinaida suggested, her voice barely above a whisper. "We can't survive out here."

But Igor hesitated, torn between the safety of the tent and the uncertainty of the forest. "No," he said firmly. "We need to keep moving. We'll find help soon."

And so, they pressed on, their spirits buoyed by hope and the promise of salvation. But the forest was unforgiving, its twisted paths leading them deeper into the unknown.

Hours passed, and exhaustion threatened to consume them. Some fell behind, their strength waning with each passing moment.

Then, in the darkness, tragedy struck. Yuri, Lyudmila, and Georgiy, caught in a moment of confusion and fear, stumbled over an unseen ledge in the snow-covered terrain. Their screams echoed through the night as they tumbled into the ravine below.

When dawn broke, it revealed a scene of unspeakable horror. Bodies scattered amidst the snow, their faces frozen in eternal agony.

Igor, Alexander, Zinaida, Rustem, Nikolai, and Semyon – their voices silenced forever, their dreams lost in the wilderness.

But the ravine held its own secrets, claiming Yuri, Lyudmila, and Georgiy as its own. Their bodies lay at the bottom, broken and lifeless, a grim reminder of the harsh reality of the Ural Mountains.

Among the survivors, desperation took hold as the cold seeped into their bones. With heavy hearts and trembling hands, they turned to the fallen, taking clothing from their lifeless bodies in a desperate attempt to stay warm.

Their actions, revealed by forensic evidence, spoke of desperation and survival instincts pushed to the brink. And among them, shadows in the snow, nine souls lost to the unforgiving embrace of Dyatlov Pass.

Doesn't explain their high level of radioactivity, though there was military activity and bomb testing whose epicenter they could've passed through on their way up to where they camped. Initiating the argument to carry on or return back to base camp before it boiled over when they realized they were irradiated and trapped in harsh conditions. That's an unknown I didn't include in the narrative, only the knowns and what they would argue about taking into account their steps, actions and the exact sequence of events as a forensic evidence recreation with the psychological factors induced by the conditions and terrain in a harsh environment.

As for why the tent was cut, somebody was blocking the exit insisting they stay and others having a different plan. Some sided with Igor and some did not. Igor found with smaller party suggests the group had split apart, there was on ongoing argument on their way to the treeline trying to convince Igor to not carry out his plan to return to base camp since he ventured back where he was found, most being convinced to stay and not to follow Igor, the tent no longer providing protection from the elements and the plan being using wood to build a campfire. Igor was not the one blocking the tent exit and most likely to have cut it to carry out his plan. It was a no-win situation no matter what the plan was and they definitely knew they were exposed to radiation the whole time with no plan being feasible no matter how they debated or how the argument escalated. The harsh reality of their situation left some of them sobbing and silent because they knew there was no correct plan of action to choose from.

The greatest mystery to me is why they did not return to camp to at least clothe themselves, something worse than freezing to death? It left no tracks, flying or hovering? Whatever it was it prevented their return after they left the tent in an orderly fashion without panic or running. Official Russian investigation forensics concluded the injuries sustained with no visible injury and internal injury are consistent with a high speed car impact. Flying car? I'm willing to conclude it was the result of falling down a ravine, though of course a flying car could have sent them over the edge. Still no explanation for the missing tongue and eyes with no animal or human tracks. The cold preserves body parts, they don't decay into nothing. Whatever it was wasn't on the ground and it caused damage consistent with a car at high speed, the 'unknown compelling force'. Perhaps the exposure to radiation and harsh conditions are what doomed them with the unknown flying whatever it was that left no tracks on the ground being worse than returning to camp and putting some clothes on to not freeze to death.

With CHD compression, you can get some really big gains. Of course it depends on the game. Overall it is great to get HDD space back and still be able to play the games through emulation. I also see NGR is back, but only for members.

Tracking down Scott Roder's YouTube channel just now because he is a crime scene forensics expert whose analysis provides scientific evidence undeniable in court, clicking on the first video I selected expecting a ho-hum I told people so moment and hearing his song selection was no coincidence that we're on the same wavelength.



Only reason I was not in a hurry to find his channel is that I don't need forensic evidence to prove what I already know firsthand from frequent encounters. If anyone can remember what I've posted over the years, it only makes it clear that I'm not hallucinating and "Every word I said was true, that you'll see." is why I paraphrase Dave Grohl. You might not believe they took me aboard a mothership above Miami dwarfing our largest scryscrapers in scale either but "It returns and when it lands words are due." I don't need anyone's belief in what will be apparent to them in due time looking at their eyes that has no face.

Government covering it up for whatever reason, isn't going to be possible to keep a lid on whatever can of worms it opens indefinitely, "I should have known we were better off alone." as Dave Grohl mentioned. Shadow people aliens are not New Age mumbo-jumbo space brothers and more space horrors than anything else.

Yes, let's all say hello to shadow people aliens when they are hiding because they are nefarious and should be told to leave with nothing else to say. This is what I mean about New Age space brother rhetoric.

As if not being afraid is an option when they appear to you in an encounter. That article is proof that New Age mumbo-jumbo is mainstream horsehit being consumed with slack-jawed delight. I highly recommend not speaking with malicious aliens.

Let's be all New Age and say hello to our space brothers shadow people alien horrors.




Stupid is as stupid does.

Stephen Hawking warned us to not contact aliens, so what did people do to commemorate him after his death? Send a signal of his synthetic voice into space for aliens to receive.

"As a tribute to Hawking after his death, the European Space Agency in June 2018 beamed a signal of Hawking speaking toward a binary system called 1A 0620–00."

I know what that shadow that appears as a beam from their eyes is, that's what happens when they light up their red eyes while hiding. They are manipulating the light spectrum in order to not be detected by our retinas, they don't bother to hide when nobody can film them and they want to be seen like they did during the initial encounter with the family in Las Vegas when nobody was filming. They know how our cameras work and manipulate metadata to further reduce their visibility by altering pixels, consider it the equivalent of alien Photoshop. There are limits to what they can do to hide in metadata and it is flawed invisibility. They're good at trickery but can't truly alter reality only our sensory detection.

Here's to all the people questioning why Americans need guns you wish you had when shadow people aliens show up and you don't want to say hello to them only stay away.





I don't shoot at them because they have better weapons and defenses, guns signal get away from me without words in their alien language translation. Guns are ineffective against them, it's a symbolic gesture communicating in no uncertain terms and with clarity.

They are Type II at minimum to be advanced enough to visit us from another star system.

"By the time you reach Type II you are immortal." ~ Dr. Michio Kaku

I know better than to waste ammo or to escalate an already dangerous situation, choosing not to speak and using guns as a get away from me and stay away from me message no matter what their language is. I put them down after the message and they choose not to kill me, we are ants compared to their level of advancement, it's not a glorious annal of history to conquer an anthill. They're just malicious and enjoy ripping the wings of off flies pestering them with buzzing SETI signals so make it clear you won't bug them by staying away from them and telling them to leave this bug infested Type 0 swamp.

Just STFU bugging them with our SETI buzzing.

[Till]

After all is said and done regarding government UFO/ET coverup, the primary function of nations is to project power. Not to admit they are powerless and insignificant Type 0 civilizations on the Kardashev scale that doesn't even rate on a scale of cosmological advancement. Powerless against an entire universe filled with species advanced enough to visit Earth across vast interstellar and intergalactic distances. We must stop pestering and bugging them with SETI signals buzzing them, it's just noise pollution to them originating from a Type 0 swamp annoying them enough to respond to its bug infestation. Instead of viewing our world leaders from our perspective, see it as an alien viewing our anthill does with a hairy bipedal insect standing before a podium chirping to an audience of fellow insects, with ET only bothering to acknowledge that the insects of Earth were the first on this planet to produce sound. You know what aliens are observing when our leaders and gurus make speeches and are addressing nations?



Our leaders are clueless and don't even know what's going on, governments want to project authority with authoritative answers that don't include humans being bugs bugging aliens that can swat us aside like gnats for pestering them.

I'd like to chirp something that's just background sound in the eternal night of space as a question that our world leader crickets have no answer to in their chirping response to my chirpings.
