I’m pretty confident it can be a lot of other reasons too. Stressful triggers, bad mental/emotional states as a result of PTSD, BPD, general anxiety, depression, over-work, etc. with all kinds of time period patterns that aren’t necessarily as general and consistent as via an introverted personality.
I find using the concept of a social battery helps dealing with, especially when communicating with other people, as well as knowing your boundaries.
I don’t like anything with ‘sovereign’ in it because it makes me think of the Sovereign Individual and the big tech people preaching it.
I’d probably think of Jargon of the industry, words, phrases, etc. that people use who work all that infrastructure stuff at the core of your game. And then hope they inspire something. Some games that make think of this, for example: Tropico, Anno, Satisfactory

I was gonna joke that you could show up as a raging trigger-happy and bloodthirsty gun-fanatic. But in the current climate, that is probably a rather qualifying factor.
In all seriousness, if this is important to you there is no way around doing your own research. There are always ways.
For example, in the book “How to Win an Information War” it is mentioned that allies at some point flew flyers over Nazi troops that gave instructions on how to temporarily get symptoms of a serious illness that would potentially allow them to leave the front.
Tbf I don’t remember if that was one of those that didn’t actually work and just got nazis actually fucked up, or helped reduce their numbers and morale. But you get the gist.
The biggest issue I see is that a ridiculous number of people would die, because so much depends on the internet just to survive.
I’m guessing you mean no access to the internet for non-essential stuff though, which I have no idea how you would implement that. Taking down big tech would be nice start. However, propaganda and war of hearts and minds existed before the internet too.
in other words, it’s not a technological problem.
The defense with the feet I got from someone who had to defend themselves multiple times. I don’t remember the details, but it’s about the easier way to keep distance from their mouth without it biting onto anything… idk. I’d say, check some youtube videos or other resources of people who talk from experience. :)
I think another important reason is to keep the face away. If you were to use your fists, you’d have to lean forward, bringing your face closer to their mouth. You’re also not allowing them to bite anywhere, like your legs. Of course, much like a knife fight, you don’t wanna be in this situation in the first place.
The palm thing, if you’re already doing a lot of other things right, it probably doesn’t matter much. But I find it signals more intent that you mean no harm. And by the time they come that close to you, I don’t see them attacking you, like ever. And if they were to show hostile behaviour beforehand, you have time to change your hand position and stand up.
Like this
I would say, the psychology behind is that we grip into our palms. So it’s harder to hide something behind your palms. You’re showing in every way you are not backstabbing them.
Germany has quite the culture of draft dodging.
I remember all kinds of stories. Smoking like a chimney and getting drunk as fuck before and dressing like a tourist with a camera as you enter the mandatory meeting thing.
Of course the criteria to get drafted are different through places and time, but try to figure out the process, and what would eliminate you from getting drafted.
Also, it’s literally in one of those declassified CIA handbooks, that one of the ways to hijack an organisation from the inside is to be incompetent as fuck. Eager, but incompetent. Report any meaningless thing that technically is report worthy, to clog up the pipelines, make meetings way too long and talk about meaningless details.
Stray dogs:
If you pass somewhere and there are suddenly stray dogs in your way, just squat down and show your hands. Hands down, palms up. If they come to sniff and shit, keep your palms below their face. Basically let them come to you. When they trust you, you can pat the top of the head. But patting the top of the head before they know you can be dangerous, as you might use them to hit them, for example.
Usually within seconds the whole pack comes to get some love :)
I’ve never been attacked by a dog this way. But if a dog would come at me, actually aggressive and not slow down, I hear you should use your feet to defend yourself.
Don’t just walk through their territory.
One of the best resources I found to just learn fundamentals of maths.
Explains the issue of google locking out non-playstore apps, etc. and also explains these links. That’s pretty much it.

Yes, please! Wired headphones also really don’t last long if used daily as a built-in mic replacement.
Yup, I also think of chess when I read it, so pawned - turned into a pawn, demoted to the weakest piece, etc. If I read owned, then it’s owned.

Some more information:
I looked at four different Samsung phones today (physically in the region). 2x phones bought in Europe. 2x phones bought in the region.
All non-rooted, stock android.
None of the phones had Aura installed. Two of them had AppCloud installed (one EU phone, one phone from the region) and it couldn’t be disabled as easily as the other phone. (I haven’t tried ADB, etc. yet, just the standard uninstallation procedure).
I don’t think domination is actually intelligent or smart.
The app’s privacy settings claim that users can disable this data collection by turning off “AppCloud” in the app list. But, according to SMEX, deletion requires the user to submit a form that does not exist, making it impossible to fully remove, at least without advanced technical expertise.
Hm, I just uninstall AppCloud no problem in a non-rooted, stock android in and from the region.
It also showed the URI or whatever of com.something.aura.
However, can’t find any Aura app.
Looks like Aura app gets installed by AppCloud. I’m a bit frustrated I can’t find a list of apps known to be installed by AppCloud, or that include this *.aura.* URI. I mean this should be relevant for a shit ton of people and could be easily crowdsourced.
On a related note, I don’t remember the best resources I’ve come across, but here’s something for a bit of an idea:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_error
Legally, there is the concept of contemporaneous notes in many countries. Meaning if you write something down shortly after the event occured it can have legal validity.
There is also hypnotherapy, EMDR, and other forms of therapy, where many people can access memories that they couldn’t. I was surprised myself how many memories I could access with EMDR.
I find the concept appears to be similar to meditation and lots of sensory information + association. How stuff felt, sounded, smelled, where you felt in your body etc.
Less related, but there’s also Method of Loci etc. to remember lots of very specific things
Sorry, hard disagree.
I also don’t want to argue. So feel free to say what you like about this, but I won’t respond. I’ll just drop some thoughts for consideration.
Jehovas Witnesses, Moonies, Scientology and so many more are still ongoing. Cult mechanism are literally some of closest stuff to brainwashing there is. They are malign. The followers are victims, and collectively this absolutely should be addressed.
Also, I am not offering any kind of solution here, I.e. to just go after the cults and disband them. As others have said it’s nuanced.
I really don’t mind the vast majority. Unless it’s really dumb, hateful or repetitive, I’m good. It’s just one more thing to scroll past, if I’m not interested. Though I do notice people with cool input running for the hills when the questions aren’t ‘exquisite’ enough and places can turn dull.
As a discipline challenge for when I search something. Do my eyes go up to the sparkle answer? Will I resist if they try to? Would I even expand the prompt? Will I cross-reference?
Sure, if I’m gonna stick around at the article anyway, it might be easy to resist the clanker’s reply, and in bold-highlighted airing dates for Pluribus. That information is also too important to risk getting wrong anyway.
But if it’s just an innocuous activity like foraging mushrooms, I might get weak and just sneak a little peak at sparkle’s advice.
