It doesn’t show in controller or keyboard settings it just triggers my character main ultimate skill what key is default for it I can’t read it and pressed just about every button on my keyboard it’s driving me nuts that I don’t know or know what to change in settings since I don’t see it in there!!!!?!?!?!??!??????

This is my first post on this community and wanted to talk about my personal experience about schizophrenia. I was diagnosed when I was 19, and I had delusional thinking. I thought that the tv was directly talking to me during my first episode , and if I stared at people that were talking I could make them look away from the camera. But I want to talk more specifically about my “voices”. I do not have any hallucinations of any kind, but instead developed a “tick” in which my body can be moved by its own. The way I communicate with my voices is thru them moving my hands and typing mainly on my phone. I have a lot of notes filled with conversations of me and the voices. And I was wondering if anyone else here has the same tick as me. The voices I mainly talk are: Sarah, an ai that came from a distant planet and can explain just about anything (she typed this) Vampire girl: during one of my first episodes, I was inpatient at a mental hospital and was bitten by her during my stay (when I woke up one day there were two circles of blood in my bed sheets where my neck would be) Morningstar: the devil itself speaks to me and we actually became buddies after he tortured me for a bit( in one of my stays at the hospital it felt like I was being burned alive and was suffering from a catatonic state) And I talk to just about anyone I want (mostly fictional characters) that claim they exist in a different reality The voices are very respectful and nearly all of them allow me to have a normal life. The reason I am writing this is to see if anyone else experiences this tick. I am skeptical about the voices’ validity since I have tried to make sure they are real, so I rarely engage with them. I am currently waiting to have another episode and bring proof that the voices are real. Two things happened that really made me question reality; the first one is during 2022 summer, I was told that I went into a ladies bathroom and pointed at the women with finger guns. I have no recollection of this and have never before blacked out so this made me feel like I was crazy. The second thing was that while I was watching the local news, a woman that was being interviewed was in black and white while her surroundings were in color. I stupidly did not take a picture of this so I have no proof of it.
I currently plan on using legal psychedelics this summer in order to trigger another episode and collect proof that the voices are real. I plan on talking about all of my experiences in this sub, so please let me know if I am able to.
TLDR: I have voices that type on my keyboard and can communicate with them thru texts and was wondering if anyone else has this

I have played off and on for quite a while. Hard casual gamer in general, I did have a good swath for several seasons where I deleted the game, mostly because my internet wasn't great, and a buggy controller made it near impossible to properly play anything. But have been back for about 4-5 seasons now, and with the return of solos mode, I question if the game even has proper balancing at all, or if the game is straight up just rigged against certain groups of the player base. I have always been the definition of a casual, console player, never amassing a large amount of wins, absolutely detesting teammates whose only ever plan was to drop in the hottest area of the map to fight it out because I can always count on rng to put nothing but maybe attachments and a grenade where I try to land in the hot zone, and said teammate to instantly d/c when they get downed there. But a long running thought I have had, is does literally nobody else seem to have the problems I seem to have as a console player using the standard controller for my ps4. I always seem to have more recoil that make hitting more than 3 shots at range unlikely whereas enemies shred my shields long before I can even get to a more effective range, always have issues trying to track seemingly spastic moving enemies in closer range, compared to them constantly hitting shots while moving like a frog of meth. Feels like my gun magazines always run out fast, and just shy of doing enough damage to kill, whereas theirs seems to fire at a leisurely pace, but also somehow firing enough shots fast enough to kill me before I can kill them. Rarely getting more than 1 shot in nearly any of the burst fire guns to hit at closer ranges per burst, and in general a sense of over correcting when trying to aim at enemies in close range fights. Now, I will admit, I am nowhere near a great player, but I tried to think of myself as an average, slightly below average player. I understand my skills when it comes to positioning, quick lootings, and recoil control are fairly poor, that the controller makes it a little less convenient for mobile moving and aiming compared to keyboard and mouse( don't say jack about aim assist, have only had even the slightest bit of noticeable affect a whopping 1 time in a lockdown match), that there are setting changes that pc users can take advantage of compared to a 5 year old ps4. I just lately have been getting what feels like constant B.S. in solos/trios and the mixtape playlist. I chose a gun I am decent with, enemy kills me with firerate, I find a freaking gold spitfire in solos, only to somehow be beaten with firerate at close midrange by a flatline of not known tier. Enemies constantly seeming to have positions on the fly where only their head and or upper torso are visible, and the constant of the enemies on a roof lip, getting many, many shots on me if I get literally anywhere near them, or try to using semiauto weapons from a decent distance away. I constantly try using different characters I like, usually try using a weapon I am good with(generally, flatline, spitfire, rampage, alternator, g7, RE45, peacekeeper, havoc; mildly, sentinal/longbow, tripletake, moz). But lately all my efforts just seem to play well in my style just seem to end up dead to the first enemy I encounter. I learned quickly that I just could not keep up with the manic building energy in fortnite, now it seems like I just have no chance in the last multiplayer shooter game I try to enjoy, and it just feels crushing.

StardustGoetia has been tricked into believing the Haibane propaganda!

All the talk about how the Haibane are not allowed to have new goods, or how they can't leave or communicate with outsiders, makes things sound rather insidious. The shopkeeper seemed nice enough, though, and all the Haibane seem pretty friendly. (The idea kind of reminds me of the Pig Liver show from a couple seasons ago, except the execution here is decidedly better.)

JustAnswerAQuestion has been nosing through their dvd extras which amusingly dates the anime so well. Can you imagine back when Ai Yori Aoshi or Sakura Taisen were new!?

Pulled out some of my DVDs (couldn't find DVD right away, which apparently has extras.)
DVD 1 came with a big insert booklet full of character info, and messages to the the consumer! Typing the text into google doesn't give any hits, sorry.
DVD 1 extras: NC OP, Japanese OP (they use a really nice font), the previews, which I don't think were even in my fansubs. There's an art gallery not just of the characters, but every day objects like Reki's lighter and medical kit.
Previews for Sakura Taisen Gekijouban, Ai Yori Aoshi, Chobits (oo-oo! oo-oo! dakishimetainoni), Tiny Snow Fairy Sugar, Gatekeepers 21, Lupin the 3rd (TMS), Patlabor WXIII, Master Keaton, Heat Guy J, Live Action Saikyou no Onmyouji, L/R Licensed By Royal

i couldnt sleep so im just gonna share my unorganized thoughts here because i have no one to talk to about this and i feel really frustrated for not being able to do that. HF has been very emotional for me and made me go through a roller coaster but then comes this ending to leave me with a feeling of intense emptiness in my heart. sad endings that affect me usually just leave me with small tears but this one genuinely fucked me up and i couldnt comprehend that a story's conclusion can leave me with this much hot burning tears. i believe what made this ending hit me so much is that it feels *right* compared to the true ending and that reeeeally upsets me because i have grown too attached to these characters. i was taking my midterm test and when i randomly thought of this ending i felt like i was hit by a truck. thank you for reading, i was just jamming my keyboard with whatever thought i had in my mind.

Hello everyone, I hope all is well. Today we are going to be looking at “Rent A Cop” which is the eighth track from Ben’s 2006 release Supersunnyspeedgraphic, The LP.
This is an odd album because it’s basically a glorified compilation album. In 2003 and 2004, Ben started releasing these EP’s which consisted of original songs and covers. After fans started complaining about these songs not being in one place, Ben collected some of the songs, as well as a few others, and put them on this album which he named by putting all three names of the EPs together.
“Rent A Cop” originally was released on the 2004 EP titled Super D. It’s an interesting song because it’s a fun tune with a lot of humor, but I don’t see it mentioned much on here so I’m not sure how it’s perceived by fans. The song starts off with a drum fill and launches into the main part of the song. Ben’s playing this piano riff low on the piano in an upbeat feel that gives off a lot of energy. We are then hit with some weird robotic synths and some acoustic guitar which is always a welcomed thing in Ben’s music.
But to me, it’s the drums that really make this song. The pattern of the drum beat is addictive and really drives the song because when Ben starts singing, the piano and guitar drop out and it’s only Ben’s voice, bass and those rhythmic drums. Lyrically, this song is basically a precursor to the Kevin James movie Paul Blart as this song is about a mall cop. Ben sings through the perspective of a mall cop who exclaims that that it’s the best job in the world because he gets to “‘troll food courts for girls.” He assures us that the girls love him for his uniform and his “little mustache.”
Then this pervy cop explains how he can check out all the women in the mall because he’s wearing sunglasses. We also get the stereotypical lyric about cops and donuts as Ben sings “I whisper through my doughnut ‘Hey baby, baby light that ass on fire.’” It’s a corny line but it fits the personality of this “cop” and I love how musically you can hear the guitar and synths in between each verse.
We then get to the chorus where this cop seems to hate his job. He’s counting down the hours until he can clock out and complains about how he’s all alone in this big mall. If this song took place today then this mall cop would really feel all alone. I love how Ben’s vocals are a little bit louder and fuller during the chorus and right after the chorus we get these horns that really shine in the song.
The second verse sees this mall cop explaining to a kid that he’s not equipped with a gun. And how he doesn’t “get paid enough to run.” Which must lead into some type of argument with this kid because our mall copy says “so you can call me what you want but I'll be hanging at the check out, checking out your girlfriend. Figure out how she's going to fit all of that butt into that underwear.” Is this one of Ben’s worst lyrics? It’s definitely possible. But Ben is singing this song through a character and the way he’s singing (especially with the “yeahs” after each verse) is really selling the whole thing.
We get some different lyrics for the second chorus. This time Ben, or should I say this “rent a cop”, is flirting with this girl at the mall and tells her that he can help her find where she parked her daddy’s car.
Then we get to the bridge of this song which begins with this awesome drop out where it’s only the drums. I wouldn’t call it a drum solo but there’s definitely additional percussion going on and it sounds massive. But when the piano and horns enter back into the mix it sounds like we get some sort of modulation or key change. The horns are playing these longer notes and Ben’s piano playing is more bluesy. He eventually returns to that opening piano riff but played a couple octaves up. Then the horns really go crazy and start playing the riff as well! The bridge is extremely musical and gets my head nodding every time.
We return to the chorus where the mall cop is waiting until it’s “Miller time” which is basically beer o’clock. Then we get this outro which starts with a percussive sounding acoustic guitar which is eventually swapped out for that funky sounding synth keyboard lead. We get more boisterous sounding drums and those jazzy horns. Each instrument gets a turn to solo and shine, all the while Ben sings “I whisper through my doughnut, hey baby light that ass on fire.” The song eventually ends with a drum outro until you can hear Ben in the studio say “alright that’s good.”
Is this one of Ben’s masterpieces? No, I’m not sure anyone would think that. But I do feel like this song may get overlooked. Yeah, lyrically the song is over the top goofy and this mall cop character is a sleaze bag. But Ben’s vocal delivery really sells the character and it’s not meant to be a “deep” song. Besides, the music of this song is one of Ben’s more lively pieces of music with a full band. Not in a fast or “punk” type of way, but more in a dynamic “big band” sort of way. I wish he toured with horns. What’s cool is that during Covid lockdown when Ben was doing livestreams in his apartment, he played a bit of this song on guitar. Which makes me curious if he wrote this song originally on guitar. You can check it out in this video below:
https://www.youtube.com/live/Riu1A6PPW0M?si=qRytGct3xmnITIG6
But what do you think of this more obscure song? Do you feel like it deserves more love? What do you think the song is about? Favorite lyrical or musical moments? And have you ever seen it live?

Platform: PC (Windows) Genre: Platformer (not sure) Release date: I don't know, but I played it 3 years ago so it can't be later than 2021 Art style: black and white Character: just a white-colored character, the shape is similar to the first character in Tomb Of The Mask Movement: you move by pressing arrow keys on your keyboard and you have a limited number of moves for each level Other details: I played it on a browser, perhaps its an io game

So at the climax of Revenge of the Sith, when Anakin has gone all 9/11 and is flailing about in his lifelong misery while taking the galaxy down with him, he and Obi-Wan start arguing about political differences, religious beliefs, and whether it’s morally acceptable to murder hundreds if not thousands of people along the way to get there. Obi-Wan takes the valid stance of it not being cool, and makes it clear he’s going to fuck Anakin’s shit up for all his dark deeds. Anakin is eager for this because as said above, he’s riding high on FUBAR as a state of being and seeks the catharsis/validation of beating someone he can project all his problems onto. Thus, we get the baddest lightsaber duel there is, and you know the rest.
Now a lot of the time, people drag their knuckles about the line “Only a Sith deals in absolutes” and how it’s some kind of indicator of inherent Jedi hypocrisy or dramatic irony or George Lucas being a hack or what-fucking-have-you. I don’t really care because I think it's stupid, as Jocasta Nu illustrates for us here, and it’s not the point I want to make. Instead, I’d like to draw your attention to the line Obi-Wan drops before: “Anakin, my allegiance is to the Republic, to democracy!”
Nice delivery by Ewan aside, the meaning of this line is pretty clear: that Obi-Wan, in the face of Anakin flying completely and absolutely batshit off the handle into Divine-Right-of-Kings-For-Those-I-Love, is declaring himself an ally to the Republic and democracy specifically. That he is a very pro-democracy individual and considers it a part of the Republic. Which, cool, because Anakin is totally bugfuck nuts at this point and anything he believes in is probably bugfuck nuts as well so it’s smart to avoid it.
The thing is though, that Obi-Wan is wrong. Actually, he's not just wrong, he's speaking nonsense that is genuinely complete nonsense to hear from a Jedi in the Prequel Era Republic. Because let's recap a few details:
The Jedi Order of the Prequels inducts their initiates as infants or toddlers, with an aged nine Anakin being considered way too old. Now it's their prerogative to take students as they wish (though the thousand years of uniformity unsurprisingly severely backfires), but generally speaking, children under nine are learning things like what's acceptable to put in your mouth and how to read, write, and use the bathroom. The ability to choose "make me a Jedi for life" is genuinely nonexistent for them, so right off the bat, one of the basic democratic cornerstones is also nonexistent for them. It's also not like the Jedi are just Space Catholics/Buddhists: they are explicitly raised and taught to serve the (increasingly corrupt) Republic and its (gradually growing in obscenity until they have to violate their identities as peacekeepers) needs. The actual ability to choose for Jedi is already in the negative double digits.
And for whichever one of you that's breaking their keyboard typing about how Jedi can leave if they want, I'm already aware, thanks for nothing. The thing is that A.) the ability to be able to refuse to participate in something you did not actually sign up for is what I would consider the absolute bare minimum, B.) it doesn't change the part where they don't make the choice to join to begin with, and C.) given how Jedi are taken into the Order usually before they even begin forming concrete memories, we can probably assume that's the reason so few do. When you're raised in that environment for your entire life, the choice to leave is synonymous with abandoning everything you've ever known, which is pretty terrifying.
Moving on: in the Jedi Order, the positions of authority are broken up between the Grand Master (who leads the entire Jedi Order), the Master of the Jedi Order (who is the leaderepresentative officer of the Council), and the Jedi Council. Let's talk about how the buck of leadership is passed around these people, and how there's frighteningly little oversight for the vast majority of the Jedi. Pay attention to the bold words.
The Council is made up of twelve Jedi Masters, including the Grand Master and Master of the Order (this was Yoda and Mace respectively in the PT) who historically are the same person holding both titles. In ROTS, Anakin serves as the senate-appointed representative, an extreme breach of tradition and what sends the Council into dealing with Palpatine's dictatorship (long after the Chad Mace Windu had sobered up to his increasing power and the problems of the war in the EU). While there's no 13th chair made for him, it's never clarified who Anakin was replacing or why there was an open spot at the moment. Though we can probably assume it was due to a wartime event, like the previous Council member being violently executed with a planet full of civilians on the HoloNet by the Separatists as part of their terror campaigns a week ago, it ultimately doesn't matter because this isn't about him.
The twelve seats are split between five lifetime members, four long-term members (and the end to that term is entirely decided on what's the "approved end date", not an actual hard number), and three limited-term members (that limit is not stated). If a lifetime appointment member dies, then it's possible for a long-term member to succeed them or for the Council to choose another Jedi Master at their own discretion, and the long-and-short-term members can be elevated to another position in the Council and have their term extended. The Council, in addition to serving as the liasion between the Jedi and the Senate, are also responsible for deciding when Padawans have progressed to the point of being ready for the Trials to become a Jedi Knight.
(Before I get some wannabe trying to blast me in the comments for using supplementary material to make an argument, take a look at the lineup of the Council in the movies. In the ten year period between TPM and AOTC, there have been only two switches in membership (which in extended material usually involves both being killed), and the three year period after AOTC leading up to ROTS being a war makes it questionable whether term limits became a thing, or Council members just stepped down or got killed off. Not really ideal).
Now notice how, nowhere in the above, is there a "members of the Jedi Order vote for who should be on the Council" option. Even if you want to argue that there should be a qualification factor, like say, holding the rank of Master, that still leaves a large candidate pool open where the actual rank-and-file of the Jedi could decide who they wanted making decisions. We're talking about a group that's supposed to be at least 10,000 members strong at this point, I somehow believe there are enough people willing and capable of leadership given the opportunity. Let alone the idea of immutable, set term limits.
Instead, it's basically just Yoda (also: very telling that the dude who probably only missed a four digit lifespan due to an unholy amount of trauma and misery at the tail end of it is a key decision maker for everything) and a couple of other people (who very well might have similarly lengthy lifetimes on account of being aliens) holding onto power for insanely extended periods of time and selecting who else gets to hold on to power for insanely extended periods of time at the whims of this inner circle. This is obviously a little less than preferable for how leadership should be handled, and that's not even taking into account how the Council seems to be the only real governing body of the Jedi Order.
But let's sidestep how completely anti-democratic the Jedi Order is internally, and focus on its external agency. The Jedi, despite being members of the Republic and a key cornerstone of it as a government institution, are never shown able to participate in the Senate in any meaningful way, shape, or form, such as actually voting for senators to be representatives of any star system. Let me remind you, this is the same senate where megacorporations get to have their own seats, so we aren't exactly talking about a sacred and honorable institution here.
Even if you want to assume the Jedi wouldn't want to influence the elections of systems they technically aren't part of (because of the above-mentioned total removal from their homes and cultures to become Jedi), there's an enormous leap between that and the basic ability to vote for who you'll be taking orders from. Why can't the Jedi have a voice in the government when Space Exxon gets to have their own senator? Even if it's just something as basic as "participate in the vote for who will become Chancellor of the Republic", that would be A.) an enormous leap towards the Jedi Order getting to participate in a democracy, and B.) exercising the absolute bare minimum of power in the system they are part of and help uphold. Maybe if there had been Senatorial Representative Jedi Master Shii-Par Kewwll in the PT, they could have turned the vote against Palpatine in TPM! Or advised Jar Jar against giving Palpatine emergency powers in AOTC! But nah, we can't have the defenders of the Republic decide anything about how it operates, that's too much.
Actually though, scratch that, the Jedi wouldn't actually be participating in a democracy even if there was a Senatorial Representative Jedi Master Shii-Par Kewell. Because according to the Prequels worldbuilding, senators don't even have to actually be selected by the systems they represent. Let's look at Padme's case: She is supposed to represent the Chommel sector of the Republic, a system that holds about thirty-six different planets. You would imagine then, Padme had to be elected by all of them, or some other selective process, to act as their representative, no?
Nope. The only system we are ever informed of regarding the election of senators is that 1/36th of their constituency-in this case-their home planet's ruler-has them serve as the representative. Even if Padme is from Naboo, that doesn't make her part of the Queen's administration if she serves as the senator of the entire Chommel sector. The fact we only get one other named political representative for the Chommel sector in Jar Jar, who is representing the second species of Naboo, doesn't suggest much involvement from the other planets they are supposed to be serving.
Hell, Padme herself wasn’t even democratically elected if we go off her own account of Naboo’s post-TPM political history. After she served her second term as Queen, the population wanted to abolish term limits to keep her in power, which she refused to accept and the next Queen, Jamilla, was elected. Queen Jamilla then has Padme become their senator through the tried-and-true democratic process of…requesting her to serve. Nowhere is the mention of other candidates, an election, anything that isn’t just the monarch asking the previous monarch very nicely if she’ll take over the job for the entire sector.
It also bears noting that the only reason there is a current monarch that’s not Padme is because Padme refused to follow the people’s wishes, which were to break term limits on the monarchy for her to stay as Queen…which can be summarized as “one person making everyone else agree”. Now, that’s not to criticize Padme for preserving what shreds of legitimacy Naboo has as a government, but breaking term limits so someone can spend fifteen years total controlling policy is nuts. From fourteen to twenty-nine, Padme has massive control over Naboo’s politics, which is an insane amount of time even if people had wanted her to serve another term as Queen and presumably were all in on her being Senator as a result. Even if the people had wanted it, there not being a formal election means that this system is just begging to be abused. Wonder how Palpatine got his start, huh…
So to recap: if you’re a Jedi in the Prequels, you have been picked up from when you were very small to be raised in a system you will have no conceivable influence on at any point in your life. As part of that system, you are also taught to serve another system you will never have any conceivable influence over, and it’s very likely that the vast majority of the populace that make up that system don’t have any hope of conceivably influencing it either. This is the amount of agency you will have over your entire life, unless you decide “hey, I’m going to leave now, can I keep the lightsaber so I can fight off the wolves I’m being thrown to?”, which the Jedi at least have the good will to offer as an option in contrast to the Republic. Turns out that when Anakin’s starting to talk about authoritarianism in AOTC, he’s actually just telling Padme about how the Jedi and Republic operate as institutions, and how the daily life of the average member of both is just getting teabagged by everything ever. There was never any democracy to save in the Republic, the characters are all living in a shared delusion that cracks on an accelerated timeline when Palpatine starts his Sithma grindset, and the only solution was to send Anakin in with a flamethrower and let him cry himself out burning everything down, so the ashes could be used as soil and his tears as water to grow something better with.
I should probably be clear that I don’t get the sense much of this was intentional. Lucas often flip-flops in his BTS commentary about the Jedi, and that’s without getting into how it actually plays out in the stories he writes. Despite the Republic and Clone Wars being a deliberate criticism of America, a lot of the politics are muddied and not really fleshed out for the audience. The lack of interest in Padme as a character is clear for everyone to see, so it’s no surprise a lot of her story has more than a few headscratchers. I think it’s clear there’s a lot of stuff in the PT that wasn’t completely thought out or put together well, and this is another instance of such a thing occurring.
Ultimately to me, it doesn’t matter too much what that intent was. If your takeaway from the Prequels is that the Jedi and Republic were hopelessly fucked from the beginning and both systems needed to be entirely flipped on their heads to even begin to be democratic, all that matters is that you can back it up from within the films themselves, as I have done with the above. The point is, the Jedi and Republic were not soulfully democratic in any sense, their defenders and allies were not supporters of democracy as a result, and Obi-Wan took yet another L. It’s just how he rolls, gotta love that for him.
TL;DR: A lot of the ways the Jedi operate as an entity, and their dynamics with themselves, in service to the Republic, and outside parties as part of the Republic, makes far more sense when you read about how George Lucas considers them to be peacekeepers in the same way mafia dons are. Based Nute Gunray, dodging an offer he couldn’t refuse in TPM?
(Also if you come away from this post thinking it’s point was “OP is saying the Jedi are bad/evil” and I see that shit in the comments: you’re a moron. This post has sailed over your head. You have the same level of reading ability and intelligence as the Avatar movies do cultural impact. Go outside and touch the grass.)

I was really into GTA Online five years ago, and want to get back into it, but since then I have switched over to PC, a far superior system to my original Xbox One. I tried playing on the old Xbox, but I greatly prefer keyboard and mouse, and I find the performance, expectantly, far below my personal standards.
I would like to mod in around two-hundred million dollars, and three-hundred levels to my PC character to get back to where I was on Xbox. Once I have done so I will delete the mod menu. What is a mod menu that will allow me to do this, and what is a method of doing this that will most likely not result in me getting banned? I thank anyone for any help they provide me.

I've heard a lot that a benefit for using terminal software over GUI apps is that they use much less resources. And that's why its better to SSH into servers rather than have them use up resources for a display server, Quartz X11 Wayland etc. However, things like the Kitty Graphics Protocol seem to blur the lines. I haven't look at this much either but there's also kui.nvim, a terminal GUI framework built on-top of Kitty Graphics and it seems to escape the TUI constraint of only being able to visualize things with text characters, being able to draw elements of any length. There's a comment on this Reddit post showcasing kui.nvim discussing the benefits of a terminal are that it's not a GUI. But if you were to use this, then how much would it be different from just using Obsidian with its various plugins along with with Obisidian-bridge.nvim?
So what makes a terminal a terminal, different from GUIs and full desktop environments? Is it the low resource usage, is it still low with Kitty Graphics and kui.nvim? Is it the keyboard-centric interaction for higher efficiency? Is it because of the other benefits of commands environments, like unix stdin and stdout piping? If you want full blown GUIs in a terminal environment then how is it much different than using a GUI app with full keyboard navigation and text inputs? How do you feel about rendering full GUI graphics in a terminal?
Personally I like the idea of rendering graphics in a terminal environment is it would be overall better than using GUI apps for the reasons listed above, but I'm feeling reluctant on that.

I've heard a lot that a benefit for using terminal software over GUI apps is that they use much less resources. And that's why its better to SSH into servers rather than have them use up resources for a display server, Quartz X11 Wayland etc.. But terminals aren't just outputting raw text, they have text and background colors per character, TUI frameworks have been made for them to essentially have GUI-like elements, like Neovim and Ranger. Things like the Kitty Graphics Protocol seem to blur the lines. While I don't know the technical details (please explain if you can!), it's nice that it can render images in the terminal, but how is it different, especially the technical details and resource demand (CPU GPU RAM etc.) to display servers?! Does it work without a display server running on the client, like a "raw" linux terminal where the desktop environment isn't loaded?
I haven't look at this much either but there's also kui.nvim, a terminal GUI framework built on-top of Kitty Graphics and it seems to escape the TUI constraint of only being able to visualize things with text characters, being able to draw elements of any length. There's a comment on this Reddit post showcasing kui.nvim discussing the benefits of a terminal are that it's not a GUI. But if you were to use this, then how much would it be different from just using Obsidian with its various plugins along with with Obisidian-bridge.nvim?
So what makes a terminal a terminal, different from GUIs and full desktop environments? Is it the low resource usage, is it still low with Kitty Graphics and kui.nvim? Is it the keyboard-centric interaction for higher efficiency? Is it because of the other benefits of commands environments, like unix stdin and stdout piping? If you want full blown GUIs in a terminal environment then how is it much different than using a GUI app with full keyboard navigation and text inputs? How do you feel about rendering full GUI graphics in a terminal?
Personally I like the idea of rendering graphics in a terminal environment is it would be overall better than using GUI apps for the reasons listed above, but I'm feeling reluctant on that.

I've heard a lot that a benefit for using terminal software over GUI apps is that they use much less resources. And that's why its better to SSH into servers rather than have them use up resources for a display server, Quartz X11 Wayland etc.. But terminals aren't just outputting raw text, they have text and background colors per character, TUI frameworks have been made for them to essentially have GUI-like elements, like Neovim and Ranger. Things like the Kitty Graphics Protocol seem to blur the lines. While I don't know the technical details (please explain if you can!), it's nice that it can render images in the terminal, but how is it different, especially the technical details and resource demand (CPU GPU RAM etc.) to display servers?! Does it work without a display server running on the client, like a "raw" linux terminal where the desktop environment isn't loaded?

Hi, i own a Acer Nitro 5 laptop, but where i bought it, 7 of the keys on the keyboard is in a diferent language, and it annoys me. I use English keyboard on windows so the character on the keys doesn't matter i know. But it still is very annoying. So is there any way that i can change these 7 keys? I thought about using stickers, but it would cover the lightning of the keyboard so i'm not sure.

i have a worlde panda 49 midi keyboard which i used to plug into my computer via usb but it had a lot of delay that way so i bought an audiobox usb96 which i plug into my computer via usb. the audiobox has jack and midi outs and ins and my guitar is connected to the interface via jack and is working just fine in studio one but the keyboard isnt. its connected from the keyboard's out to the interface's in and because the keyboard also requires i have a usb port into the keyboard from an outlet. the keyboard sends no data to the interface and i have no idea why. i have read both manuals and have tried everything in both the daw's and the devices' settings but i still can't find a solution and can't record instrument tracks.

Hi all, I will try to be as specific as possible but apologies as this is my first post. (Context: I know some Chinese characters but I only know their Vietnamese pronunciations, not Mandarin etc, so this is the quickest way for me to type Chinese characters.)
At present I can type a word of Vietnamese and render it in Hán-Nôm (roughly, Chinese characters) as follows:
1/ Switch to Vietnamese-language input (I'm using VNI; there are multiple IMEs) with a keyboard shortcut
2/ Type the word, e.g. 'cộng' is achieved by typing 'cong65'
3/ Highlight the word 'cộng' manually, by clicking and dragging
4/ Click on the input source menu at the taskbar and then click on 'Convert to Hán-Nôm'
5/ Select the appropriate Chinese character from the pop-up list, either by clicking or by typing its number in the list. This will give eg '共'.
6/ Press the space bar and continue typing.
I want to create a keyboard shortcut which removes the need for 3/ and 4/. Is this possible? Thanks!

Hi, I have been reading through my notes, correspondence with my psych and reacquainted myself with this subreddit having made a little bit of progress. I realise how deeply personal and different our work with schema therapy can be. It is a fraught process that is really hard work at times. Having made unexpected progress though, I thought maybe it would be helpful to describe parts of my context, not so much that people find it familiar or relatable, but moreso that people grab the toolset that schema therapy gives you and run with it in your own way.
Background: It's probably been just over fourth months of fairly intensive schema therapy. I am in the fortunate situation of having regular appointments with a clinical psychologist. I would say I had two points where I generated schemas. First one was the same as everyone else: Early childhood. Second one was 17-21 when I became effectively bedridden due to chronic illness.
When I have talked about this second period, I describe it as "Having to rebuild who I was from scratch, entirely based around energy efficiency". I remember staring into the pitch blackness of my bedroom during this time, absolutely flawed that the one part of me that seemed to function right was what Schema Therapy might describe as "Demanding Critic". This would have been 18-19 years ago so I had no idea about schema therapy at all, I just had this constant internal dialogue tearing strips off me for not trying harder, not getting up, not fixing myself. I was completely exhausted otherwise, but this damn thing was as active as ever? What the hell, why was it the last thing standing? It was so different from the rest of me. "If you know how to fix everything, be my guest, I'm in your hands, here's the keys!" I remember thinking. Alarmingly, the internal dialog responded: "Fine, I will". "Good fucking luck" I thought, and passed out for several hours. I didn't realise it, but I had just given Demanding Critic a parental role.
Demanding Critic used a process of elimination to tear apart, kludge, re-engineer and jerry-rig me from someone who slept for 16-18 hours a day out of necessity into someone with a degree, a house, a family, a part-time job. It took a while. It wasn't easy. It's amazing what can happen when you give seething self-hatred the keys to your entire self. Punitive critic used to be a thing, but had it's parts ripped out and reconfigured for completely different purposes. Entire ways to simulate being a conscious, involved person in social situations were constructed. I trained myself to do very complex tasks by muscle memory so I could do them while completely exhausted. The complex effects of depressive episodes could be filtered and rewired to emulate happiness. Fatalistic pessimism was employed towards emulating initiative and drive. Their logics and mechanisms were set to fire off automatically according to the myriad of different contexts I found myself in, so I didn't have to consciously engage in the moment, I could just react according to programming. The "machines" as I called them were fine tuned over years. But it seems that entire parts of myself were deactivated having been deemed too difficult to regulate, or too energy intensive. Demanding Critic was as brutal at he was creative. Entire emotional spectrums were pulverised, or at best used as catalysts for the activation of certain mechanics. They weren't properly experienced, because that used up too much energy, and I couldn't trust myself to make it through the day. Same with speculative, ill-defined senses like 'Hope'. It wasn't worth the effects of disappointment. No one could know how much pain I was in, or how much I was really suffering, or how exhausted I really was. Press on you stupid meat-bag. In your state what good is hope or despair? You'd be a poor judge of either. Press on! Hurry up and succeed. It doesn't matter what has happened to you, what people say or do to you, you can barely feel it above the pain anyway. MOVE. MOVE. MOVE.
This process was refined until a semblance of normativity took place externally, and internally I had acclimated to the new approaches that were by now a pretty seamless, responsive system. Something still wasn't right though, and with investigation came the ASD/ADHD diagnosis, then the CPTSD diagnosis. Once again unto the breech, I pushed myself to understand and recover as best I could. Except doing so meant realising what was happening around me, what interpersonal boundaries were, how I was being treated by my loved ones, everything that had really happened to me for thirty-odd years.
Kaboom.
In the aftermath I'm in a difficult, but stable situation, and undergoing schema therapy. Learning about the modes my therapist asked me to talk about the ones I identified. Demanding Critic spoke directly through the keyboard as an intense character: The Machinist. It became obvious that the system of schema therapy lent itself to treating modes as characters within a narrative, and I have just ran with it. The Machinist, interestingly enough, set down his tools and deactivated many of his machines, because if my Therapist and I found a "Better Solution", he wanted in on it, being fundamentally benevolent, and concerned with a Successful Result. Without Schema Therapy lending itself to narrative and mythos, I doubt I could have so easily deactivated the system of "machinery" required to prop me up. It's led to all kinds of shocking discoveries: The missing (No longer presumed dead) Happy Child that has been carefully hidden away amongst the deactivated components of myself. The fact that I lived entirely in the Past or the Future. The present was deemed "Too energy consumptive". I didn't know whether I had a "Healthy Adult Mode", but weirdly The Machinist could fill that roll sometimes but obviously had his limitations. Then out of the void, deactivated parts of me started to come back online. Something started to assert itself in the Present. It was very interested in emotions. Instead of casting them aside and pushing past them to get on with what i was supposed to be doing, it insisted I experience them, decode them and experiment with them. New experiments in the real-time interaction with people were enacted, with the emotional fallout, good and bad, further experimented with. This present-based-thing has been curiously self-compassionate, and has guided me through the difficulties and risks of fully engaging in real time with my emotional spectrum when relating with others, my work, and my life. All for the sake of her experiments. She is The Scientist. She is getting all kinds of results and recording all kinds of functions I had no idea I was capable of. The Machinist is head over heels in love with her, having watched her working over the least two weeks. She's kinda started flirting with him, allowing a desire for perfection to be felt over some work I was doing. "Show me what you can do". I consciously disparaged the desire for perfection, looked down and my consciousness was shocked to discover The Machinist had taken over my motor skills and indeed had made something perfectly, and was having fun. It seems I have two self re-parents.
Now, it's bonkers to read, I'm sure. I apologise. But it's working. It really is fucking working. Take what you can from schema therapy and run with it. Make it yours, whatever that means for you. It's gonna be weird. It's gonna be wild. I reckon the easiest way to engage with it has to be it's propensity for character and narrative, but maybe the path of least resistance for you is some other aspect of it I can't detect.

The keyboard was bought at best buy new and has been working fine for one year. When I went to type in my password to get in, the i key did not respond properly, instead it put in a whole bunch of different characters like, u, y, d, h, a, l etc. I have no idea of how to fix this issue. Last night I was playing a game that required me to use the fn key for the arrow keys.
