    Did you just post a comment on Sono's profile, delete it and post the same thing again? Or am I hallucinating?

    I thought I posted on the wrong profile, so I deleted and reposted it. 😅 As I have already complained other times, on smartphones the page keeps skipping, due to the various advertisements popping up out of the blue, lately also animated. 😖

    So no hallucinations. Good. Would have been scary as I didn't take any hallucinogenic drugs.

    "on smartphones the page keeps skippng[…]"
    You don't want me to answer that. Or do you? :creep:

    What are your favorite italian soft cheeses with DOP?
    Nikokaro
    Nikokaro
    Spicy Gorgonzola (the one with green mold, which smells like unwashed feet 🤣, but is delicious). Mascarpone, too, but it is very fatty and goes well with desserts.

    Okay, I will look out for those in my undisclosed location. Thank You!

    Today in Italy is Ferragosto, a national holiday of Roman origin ("Feriae Augusti" would mean rest wanted by emperor Augustus) but which the Church has made coincide with the assumption into heaven of Mary, mother of Jesus. But is it also celebrated in your countries?

    Lao Tse said that if you have no ego you cannot be wronged. Is someone who is bullied an egoist?
    Nikokaro
    Nikokaro
    It depends on whether the sufferer is spiritually (without ego) ready (usually not). Then it depends on what kind of bullying it is: 1 vs. 1 or group vs. 1. The former can be a teaching, an exercise in patience and forbearance. But if one is not ready, he must react strongly, not whine. Face-to-face, if necessary fight and put his life on the line, without thought ("mushin" in Japanese) intervening.

    I realize that your question is a provocation. Egoism has different degrees. Of course if the victim is egoist, what is the persecutor? Isn't he much worse? He is usually a coward, if confronted head-on, without hesitation, eyes to eyes (he doesn't expect it) he is stunned, unprepared and backs down. But still one must prepare for the worst, to defend oneself, to fight for his dignity (or worse for life).

    This passage is redolent of Theognis' Elegies (425–428). Silenus' wisdom appears in the writings of Arthur Schopenhauer, who endorsed this famous dictum. Via Schopenhauer, Nietzsche discusses the "wisdom of Silenus" in The Birth of Tragedy. Both Socrates and Aesop were sometimes described as having a physical appearance like that of Silenus, with broad flat faces and fat bellies.
    Nikokaro

    So it is actually a phrase from Aristotle, later passed on to Schopenhauer and Nietzsche but symbolically attributed to the fictional character of Silenus.
    We never stop learning something new ...... 🤣

    Could someone explain to me how to embed a YouTube video in a thread from a smartphone; I can't find that option on YouTube, which is present when browsing from a PC. Thank you.

    "Nah, doing so just copies the link, but the video is not shown: at least it's so from android mobile."
    Now that is some real advantage for Android.

    Still preferring a proper computer. I would take me half an hour to prepare a tiny post without a keyboard.

    "I would take me half an hour to prepare a tiny post without a keyboard." In fact, that is exactly how it was for me, too. It took me a while to get used to it, but now I am almost an expert. 😋

    Does anyone know what forest fruits these are? These are the blackberries, and I happen to be fond of them. Guess who's about to go on a binge? Yeah, yours truly. 🤩

    Sorry. I was half asleep. Suddenly a notification bomb and I was unable to handle this… Deleted the message without thinking.

    No malicious intent for either of you @Nikokaro, @Creamu.

    Would any developer/ programmer/ hacker take a look at the save code of eDuke3d.3dsx (Mr.Huu ver.)?
    By saving and loading you gets thrown out in the 3ds menu.
    With the hope that someone will help me. Thank you.

    "forgiving those who have hurt us is almost divine"
    Forgive people that hurt us? Unconditionally? WHY?

    Let me think about this: Ehhm. No?

    Accepting the past like it is: Yes. No good/sane alternatives.
    Not seeking revenge: Also yes.

    I will certainly not answer bad with good just deceive myself into feeling morally superior (which I am not).

    @aoikurayami , and who would you be? Never crossed paths before. Are you by any chance an admirer of our friend here? That makes me very happy. 😁
    But given where you're from I hope you're not a vampire or something like that...🤣

    According to a recent quiz, I'm apparantly a "nymph"
    :(
    Weedz got "vampire" as result. They might be able to help in that regard xD

    I'm just clicking and typing.
    But admirer sounds nice. I'll take it.

    Yes, I should have looked into that XML file. This target selection isn't needed with Luma.

    It is frustrating when things simply don't work for unknown reason and the lack of documentation makes it hard to impossible to find out on your own.
    Just like me poking around aimlessly with my stupid CDs trying to get some information about the underlying things.

    Still: Have fun with the 3DS. It is an awesome device!
    Nikokaro
    Could someone help me? I installed boot9strap, luma3d, safeb9sinstaller, otherapp.bin via soundhax in the o3ds. The installation succeeded and the home menu is the same as before. But where do I find and how do I start the homebrews (already copied in the 3ds folder)? Wasn't a Launcher already included among those softwares? Thanks.

    Now Eduke32 is working. Also the various addons. Had to use another .3dx file, not provided in the opening post.

    Regarding SNES9x: It works good for the most games. Those with powerful co-processors in their cartridges (Super-FX and SA-1) perform very poorly on old type consoles. For example Yoshi's Island, some Kirby game (forgot the name), Star Fox, Doom aren't very much fun on O3DS.

    Sure. Anyway I am only interested in jrpg games (english patched), and these work great.😉

    Why is this so important?Look at the vulcan/saturanian actors for example that tested the nukes, even though they estimated a 10%chance of destroying all life on planet earth. After japan sought capitulation in 1947,they nuked them anyway.The targets were civil and it was a display of power&to see what would happen to a population under those condition not to mention the countless firebombings of civil targets

    This is total madness, and needs to be overcome for good. This is the challenge and it needs to happen on a spiritual level. A technological world cannot last without apollonian order. We deal with establishing the apollonian part primary and the lunar part secondary at first.

    In short. Lunar cycles under the old roman conecption became too dangerous as technology progressed. Therefore it is up to us to reinvent the roman system to a true Sol Invictus conception.

    You made me think so much out of my regular paths.
    Thank you for this.

    Mentioning the book "The Power of Now" once again: Although the world is going down the drain right now, I felt delighted this morning and enjoyed that now.

    Defects on critical parts at/on/in the house are big problems forcing full attention to them. And literally shit…
    pile-of-poo_1f4a9.png
    Complete repair of my deceased grandma's house is becoming a nightmare as well. So slow progress. So hard to find somebody willing to do it. We need that house repaired…

    Now just:

    Good luck!
