From the songs lyrics:
Or pay a fee to talk in chat
... was that ever proposed? It obviously fell through because it was not implemented and I can still write chat messages?

50% of the player count are bots that do not cheat ... maybe.
I have been thinking about this: With the recent advancements in AI could you build a bot that pretends to be a human playing the game (with some intentional flaws in its gameplay -- so no aimbot for example)?
I would imagine player behavior -- like movement around obstacles -- in tf2 would be a valuable data mine to train AI further.

An image of a depressed Soldier overlay-ed with team fortress memes? What is the meaning of this?

Lets hope they stay true to their words and do not deprecate Manifest V2
later, since firefox is an open source project, theoretically anyone could fork it and build this on their own, but I heard compile-times for firefox is long. And as complexity of the web increases maintaining your own forked web browser will become harder and harder. That is why projects like Ladybird are important imo.
As more and more webpages do not support firefox anymore (Notion did not work for me today) the web will become unusable in a dystopian Manifest-V3 only future.

As Firefox will introduce Manifest V3 which will make ad-blockers unusable, I hope they will not implement that as well ... But since this is so new, this will not have any add-ons at all for the foreseeable future

Windows 11: Add advertisement to the start menu, add remote Artificial intelligence to your daily live. Require new CPUs and motherboards / hardware, ignoring the market for old computers.
What will they do next?
- More advertisement.
- More features that require an always on internet connection?
- Forced restart for software updates
This is why I expect Linux share to slowly increase until the old computers die and you will not be allowed to choose to boot another operating system besides Windows on your Microsoft-Copilot+ PC that would be your only option.

youtube will also become harvested for AI data. And filled with AI functionality in the future. ergo: Look out for alternatives.

When playing on community servers I never witnessed aim bots until now.
- Uncletopia servers are okay...
- there are funny inofficial game modes like:
- x1000 multiplies all weapon stats by 1000
- classwars one team is one class. for example medics vs scouts
- randomizer, get a random weapon (for example Medigun as heavy)
- jump training maps: solve pakours
- grappling hooks on ctf (community maps like ctf orange)
- 100 players in one server
So: Community servers should be used more often by normal players, they offer diverse different maps and gamemodes and are a decentralized solution to the bot problem.

Prediction on how this will end:
The Arc Noah was built to protect those who can not live in the ocean: Humans. Some fishmen may forgive the humans for enslaving them... others will not. In the end there will be a battle to sink the Noah with the entire worlds population on board. A repeat of the Ohara refugee ship. But this time the heros of the story will save the boat.

Poseidon -- the mermaid princess -- is supposed to be able to sink the world beneath the ocean. But now Imu does it instead? I do not get it.

So .... is Impel down 200 meters high and was constructed on the pre-Void Century land? After the flooding it became the underwater prison?
I do not think so: Why would you make a building watertight ...

Awesome how Saint Mars transforms into his human form. Shows they have two sides: A diplomatic, professional form, wearing black suits as a gigantic(huge) old man with beard and a Monster warrior form.

The black color in confusing. Why did Luffy need to summon (?) a bucket with black color and a brush if he could have used armament Haki to achieve the same color? Or is the black color color of armament? Also up until know Gear 5 only summoned white things if I remember correctly (white hair, clothes, rubberband, surroundings, glasses). Isnt black color supposed to be Blackbeards thing?
I want to know the lore behind this lmao, I have to much fantasy to explain those things with different (maybe wrong) explanations. And maybe there will be no official reasoning behind this color bucket at all ...

Saint Mars kinda looks like the Basilisk from Impel down chapter 528... which was supposed to be a crossing of a snake with a chicken.
Crazy theory: Each of the 5 elders is associated with one level of Impel down, they are called Hells, while the 5 elders are demons. The hidden level 6, unknown to the general public and for the worst criminals ... is associated with Imu.

Text Generating AI makes mistakes when I ask it questions that I can verify the answer to. This is why I am here... Maybe I will post some of the stupid (and funny) mistakes it makes (GPT-4 & Google Bard (Gemini) & LLAMA tested)

Seems like this one used the firewall to block all remote access. Only the Port [door] is open. .. maybe he overdid it
If I remember correctly all important news was read to him. Like the news of Aces execution or the incident of Dragon vs Blackbeard at Baltigo. The information in the newspaper about getting Yonko Status could be deduced from an image. And as far as we know Luffy has never gone to school. So is he an illiterate?
I think that the additional weight on the water on the surface of the outer airplane body increases friction with the air, and also weight of the aircraft. But does the fuel consumption increase? And by how much?
In chapter 385 Lucci states > You learn the name of the fruit when you gain its power - so why did Luffy not learn the name of the Human-Human Fruit, Model: Nika after eating it? - or did he mean you name the fruit yourself after learning of its abilities?
Is there a map that shows the minimum recorded temperature for each spot on earth? This would be interesting to see the coldest places on earth, and also see the countries where water never freezes because of ambient temperature ... I guess the every spot in the US would still be under 0°C ? I only found [this map](https://climate-charts.com/World-Climate-Maps.html) of global average temperature, not minimum temperature?
## The Figarland bloodline was first mentioned in non Canon Material: - the name "Figaraland" was first mentioned in the Film RED movie in relation to Shanks bloodline by the 5 elders - that movie is NON Canon material so it should not matter what is mentioned there, but this seems way to specific to ignore - now in the most recent chapter we get Saint Figarland Garling, another member of that bloodline and **God Valley** - also Oda revealed in a Volume related to film RED (Volume Volume 4000000000 titled "RED") that Shanks was found as an infant at **God Valley** - this paints a picture how Shanks is closely linked to the World Government, the Celestial Dragons and God Valley even before it is stated in the Canon story ### So now my opinion: - canon secrets should not be revealed in non Canon material first, because it blurs the line between canon and non canon material, making it more difficult to see what actually is the truth for the average fan. - this also blurs the line as to what can be seen as a valid argument in theory crafting. Now even non canon material is cited as a source for a theory, even though this is still invalid and should always be mentioned - this seems to be a (admittedly smart) money making trick: reveal facts in non canon material to spur fan engagement - there is still a chance that shanks bloodline does not matter to the actual story, but as hints get more and more specific this becomes unlikely.
I lately learned about memory allocations and use of malloc. The malloc command is defined in the POSIX standard, as can be seen [here](https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904975/functions/malloc.html) It says > The order and contiguity of storage allocated by successive calls to malloc() is unspecified. So what is the default allocation strategy malloc uses on Linux. Is that allocation strategy different then from windows/ macOS or Android? I heard malloc on Linux uses the [Buddy memory allocation strategy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddy_memory_allocation) is that true, since on wiki it only says the **Linux Kernel** uses it, but not Linux itself, idk?
Lets start listing pre timeskip main villains that have already returned - Alvida (in cross guild) - Buggy (cross guild) - ((Arlong)) through flashback only on fishmen island - Smoker (Punk Hazard) - Wapol (Reverie, as king of evil drum kingdom) - Crocodile ( cross guild) - Bellamy - Blackbeard - Moria (on Fullalead island Perona tries to save him) - Boa - the Admirals In sum 11 main villains returned ## Villains that did **not** return: - Axe Hand Morgans (his son is still at Kobys side tho) - Kuro (but his right hand man still was present, while Garp talks about Rocks) - Don Krieg - Arlong - Enel (even-tho he got his crazy moon cover story) In sum 5 villains did not return ... Did I loose some main villains (I do not count Doflamingo, since he was only a post ts main villain) This means 11/17 = 65% of old characters did return after the timeskip to the story again, which is an ecxeptional result for a long running series imo .... --- What are your general thoughts on villains returning into the story after they have been defeated. In my opinion that can get boring, if the character is not seen in a new position / context. So Crocodiles return is more boring compared to Buggys return, since Crocodile is not currently challenged and did not change his personality. --- I hope some of the lesser popular characters get their chance to shine at the end, adding "depth" to seemingly unimportant characters. For example Axe Hand Morgans still does not know he was hypnotized into believing he captured captain Kuro. Because of that hypnosis he became an arrogant high ranking officer. Bringing Axe Hand Morgans and Kuro together could lead to the revelation that his live was built on a lie. And then he could accept his son Helmeppo again, as Helmeppo reaches the same rank as his father through merit. (Currently Helmeppo has the rank below his fathers captain rank)
