#Fixed Assets and Field Service

[artsy-hobbitses]

In truth there is no better place to be Than falling out of darkness still to see Without a premonition Could you tell me where we stand? I'd hate to lose this light Before we land And when I feel like I can feel once again Let me stay a while Soak it in a while If we can hold on we can fix what is wrong Buy a little time For this head of mine Haven for us

One of the things that I adore about Ties That Bind was the journey that Preston 'Prowl' Wan took to become a fully-fledged character, where he initially began as simply a mirror of IDW Prowl. And to honour that development, the man whose compassion is no less real for being learned rather than innate, who sees numbers and the faces behind them with the same crackshot clarity, and who believes not in gods or fate or a higher calling but in people, and in you Jazz, has earned a brand new character sheet! His old sheet can be found here And below, you'll finally find his full story!

Preston Wan Peirong remembers little of his childhood, which is perhaps for the best in some aspects; Hard to tell the truth from a lie in a memory when one doesn’t know how many times they have been ‘rewritten’.

However, what he can tell you with unnerving clarity was the coldness of it all. The sterility. The unquestionable sense of order and obedience to the system he was told kept the world from devolving into chaos after it narrowly avoided total annihilation. 

As a cold construct, Preston was a part of a batch commissioned specifically for the law enforcement division and grew up in the youth wing of China’s Public Security Academy in Beijing. Here, he was trained to become a police officer from the day he was old enough to respond when the numbers under the barcode stamped on his neck were called out: P7031 Names weren’t given; Names had to be earned. 

Every aspect of his life and that of those in his batch was strictly regimented down to the last minute; Food calculated down to the last calorie for maximum performance with minimum waste to funding. Lesson room, shooting range and dorm temperatures kept frigid to ‘sharpen the mind’. The text which met his gaze, the lessons which rang in his ears, the words that came out of his mouth when he was permitted to speak.

He learned early on what his purpose was in the world, and had it drilled into him how integral purpose was to keeping the system running; Everyone had a purpose, everything had its place, and as long as the people understood both, order would be maintained, and order had to be maintained to keep the peace for the good of the many. Sometimes, yes, that meant oiling the gears. Other times, it was hammering down stray nails.

That purpose drove him, and by seven, indoctrinated him so thoroughly that he didn’t question the stinging in his knees when he was ordered to kneel on rice grains during his lesson drills, or his own hunger when ordered to go without meals until he’d learned to disassemble and reassemble his weapon at a speed which put officer cadets to shame. 

At eight however, the sterile and orderly world he knew within the academy walls began to crack; Sitting on the top of his batch, it was decided by the academy trainers that he needed more one-on-one tutelage after class hours. It was decided that he needed a handler. 

Tan Yumei was a former soldier; a renown crackshot with steel in her eyes and in her bones from years in service to the state; The kind that made her sit up straighter when the offer was made for her to become a glorified babysitter—in her words—to what had to be the world’s best behaved boy. 

Asset, the interviewer would correct her. Not a boy; an asset. Our asset. 

The promise of a job in the academy which would come with pay and medical benefits which far eclipsed her government pension was too tantalizing to pass up, and she took on the child known as P7031 under her wing. 

She was to train him in field work and help with his assimilation into society; the silo of the academy gave him the skills necessary, but could only do so much to help him function as part of the system. 

As often as she was told to treat him as an asset, a tool rather than a child, that proved easier said than done as Yumei found herself warming up to all four-foot-six of stoic, stony-faced, serious-as-a-heart attack P7031. 

It started small and innocuous; ice cream as a treat for a job well done, something completely novel to the child. No sense using the stick exclusively when the carrot was there as long as results were achieved, she would assure the staff.

This hid her growing disturbance with the way P7031 was raised, more so as he began to light up when when she greeted him every morning, began to smile as she praised him for things that weren’t tied to the purpose given to him by the academy, began to question the world around him in ways he had never been given the chance to do before with the kind of childish wonderment that dissipated into thin air when it came time to return to the academy. 

And P7031 began to feel his worldview shift as well, as she was the first person to treat him like the child that he was, whether it be reading with him young adult novels not approved by the academy board or snapping the very first pictures of himself he was allowed to keep (a gift to remind him that he existed beyond the academy walls). Attachments were an alien concept to him; he understood that his purpose meant connections beyond duty—whether it be family or friends, neither of which he had prior to Yumei— were wasteful, unnecessary, dangerous. But for the first time in his nine years of living, he wanted for something more than purpose. He wanted a life with his handler, his mother, as the card he presented to her on a second Sunday in May proclaimed with words easier written than spoken.

And as the time grew near for her handler contract with the academy to end, it was a sentiment Yumei echoed. 

When he was ten years old, she came for him after hours; silent, stealthy and wreathed in shadow, promising him a life away from the academy, from a purpose he never asked for. 

And at ten years old, time froze for him. 

P7031 didn’t remember anything of that night; The escape to the docks. The lullaby hummed to keep him calm. The struggle and the thunderclap that spattered his coat in blood that wasn’t his, and the wretched, barely human sound that tore from his throat. 

He didn’t remember being dragged back to the academy beaten within an inch of his life screaming blue murder. 

Didn’t remember the golden eyes crinkled at the edges with amusement as he begged for them to stop, because he knew Uncle Gold-Eyes, the one they called Trepan, to be a doctor who dealt with ‘defective’ assets; something he had once prided himself in never being. He didn’t care that he was defective; they had already taken the only person worth anything in his life away from him physically, and they were prepared to take what remained of her in his mind to ‘fix’ him. 

His pleas fell on deaf ears, and what he did remember, after all this, is simply his dorm room, Spartan as ever. 

Life went on, with only whispers of the unexplained cancellation of the handler initiative, which he’d never heard of, as a ripple in the monotony of his classes, shooting range practice and on-field assignments.

At eighteen, he graduated from the academy and finally earned the right to a name, and P7031 became Officer Wan Peirong, assigned to the Chengdu Security Bureau where he became one of its rising stars. 

His professionalism, loyalty and sense of duty were unmatched, even among his batch, and he unquestioningly served the system that kept the nation running. Criminals had no place in the system, but as he was told by his superiors, neither did dissidents who threatened order and had to be re-educated, taught the error of their ways to become productive citizens the same way he had been molded into a model worker in the academy. 

In this period, blips in his memories became more frequent, though his attending physician dismissed his concerns as it didn’t impact his work. Work which he began to question one day when his task entailed breaking up a miners’ protest downtown. As he led one activist away, an elderly woman kowtowed at his feet, begging for him to show mercy to her son, and something in her voice made him loosen his grip with the beginnings of doubt.

Miners were not an outlying group; they were a sizable section of the populace, and they weren’t the only group voicing their grievances. He was tasked with helping keep the peace; something he was told repeatedly that the many desired over the few who bucked against the order. But who was he serving when those who bucked against the order he was told should not be challenged became the many? 

It was a question Peirong struggled with as the days went by and dissent grew louder among the working class, which authorities were ordered to respond to with mounting force even for the pettiest infractions.

He began to seek out banned texts, including translated copies of ‘Towards Peace’, supposedly penned by a Cold Construct just like him from the west, to gain clarity on the situation; He reasoned that ne had to study all angles before making a move after all, and the more he read, the more shaky his faith grew in an institution which was far from the paragon he had been promised in the academy. 

He wasn’t a fool however; he knew how the system worked inside and out, and began searching for loopholes to secretly help out people he believed were being failed by the system, as well as utilising malicious compliance to cover his tracks in a real-time game of chess with his superiors.

It all came to a boiling point one day, as he was assigned to a squad escorting a group of political prisoners to a new facility. 

Among them was someone Peirong recognised as one Brandon Shen Bailin; a charismatic and  defiant radio deejay-reporter from Hong Kong who recently came out as a Cold Construct and was nicknamed the ‘Blaster’ for the exposes he penned about the government. 

Brandon had gone missing weeks ago on assignment in Xinjiang; no amount of bandages and no large a hoodie could hide the toll that time had taken on the man, who was now emaciated and missing all of his fingers.

Before Peirong could fully process what he was seeing, the reporter was separated from the rest of prisoners and forced to kneel, as a gun was placed in Peirong’s hands by the Second-Level Inspector and he was told to dispose of this enemy of the state.

What was unspoken but clearly understood between both of them, as Peirong could deduce from the officers closing in on him, was that this was a test of loyalty as his wavering faith in the system was becoming clear to the bureau’s cabal. 

The choice was made in a split second; he refused his commanding superior’s orders, shot the man square between the eyes before they could draw their weapon and then kneecaped the rest of the officers before the dust settled.

Hauling Brandon into the shotgun seat of the prisoner transport truck and driving off, he helped the reporter liaise with a contact that directed them to a rendezvous point at the nearby contested China-Arunachal Pradesh border to fight extradition orders. 

With authorities not far behind, Peirong pressed on and covered for them as they raced towards the border, following in Brandon’s lead. He had spoken with them throughout the journey; stilted and monotonous as ever on his end as he struggled to connect with them, but two things were clear, as they made that run for freedom:

The first was that the system was untenable if it would deem parents, poets, artists and blue collar workers–the many, the unarmed—as enemies of the state.  The second, was that while they ran for their lives, he wasn’t sure whether he’d ever truly lived at all. 

This was a sentiment that Peiriong echoed, after he was overpowered by men in the same uniform he wore, to the constable pressing the nozzle of a gun to his forehead; That they were free to take his life, a life where the only moment he’d felt even barely alive was he had defied an order for the first time. 

The argument that occurred next between two commanding officers who debated his fate was a surprise, though not so much as the revelation that this wasn’t the ‘first time’ he had broken protocol, and that he had apparently broken protocol one too many times that they were now weighing his use against the cost needed for his ‘upkeep’. 

In a day of firsts, it was also the first time Peirong had allowed his emotions to overwhelm him, as his increasingly frantic demands to know what they did to him before this—suddenly the blips in his memories made sense—was met with a pistol whip to the temple, and booming sound which made him believe for a fraction of a second that the gunman had kept true to the threat to kill him. 

Except he still breathed, and despite the ringing in his ears, he dazedly managed to push himself up to see the officers scattered and stunned while a new man stood in their midst; armored, backlit against the sun, and smiling.

The words were muffled, but he could read the man’s lips clearly; “Focus on me.” 

It was the singular thread of clarity he needed to finally accept the hand outstretched to him as both of them made a run for the waiting aircraft that would, for better or worse, take him away from his purpose, from the only life he knew. 

The man, who introduced himself as Jace Zayden codenamed Jazz, was a friend of Brandon who had refused to leave without the lone cop who had risked everything to help them.

And where Peirong had feared losing his purpose, his reason for existing with the single step he took beyond China’s borders, he found that he had instead traded it in for another the moment Jace invited him to team leader Omar ‘Orion Pax’ Parvez’s table to discuss strategy; something this new team desperately needed. 

He chose a new name, Preston, to mark his departure from his old life, and focused on his new purpose as framed by the man who saw worth in his life when those he’d once pledged it to did not: Peace through compassion, even if learned, over oppression. 

And between understanding what it meant to live as a man rather than a government asset, and forging connections beyond what duty once dictated for him, maybe, just maybe he could one day piece together the scattered fragments of his past.

What I didn't realise before releasing my game is that the workload it produces is set to have a long tail, and at the moment it hasn't really decreased. It's still taking up multiple hours a day - fixing bugs and trying to fix a persistent "updating the game breaks saves" problem, preparing Steam community assets, responding to requests for review copies (which all need vetting), fielding people offering localisation services (not right now thanks, I have enough on my plate), fielding people wanting internships at my games company, submitting the game to festivals and awards, trying to get the game working for Mac, looking into porting it to the Switch, writing a game guide (because apparently I should have had one of those) and like I chump I'm also trying to get the Mycroft Holmes sim up on Steam this Summer with new music and features...

Gross national product (GNP) GNP is related to another important economic measure called gross domestic product (GDP), which takes into account all output produced within a country's borders regardless of who owns the means of production. GNP starts with GDP, adds residents' investment income from overseas investments, and subtracts foreign residents' investment income earned within a country. Whilst GDP measures the total value of goods and services produced within a country's borders, GNP focuses on the income generated by its residents, regardless of their location.

Gross National Income (GNI) is the total amount of money earned by a nation's people and businesses. It is used to measure and track a nation's wealth from year to year. The number includes the nation's gross domestic product (GDP) plus the income it receives from overseas sources.

Supporting Striker (Inverted Winger)

Central Winger (False 10)

Overlapping Run/Defensive Winger (Half-winger)

An inverted winger is a modern tactical development of the traditional winger position. Most wingers are assigned to either side of the field based on their footedness, with right-footed players on the right and left-footed players on the left.[65] This assumes that assigning a player to their natural side ensures a more powerful cross as well as greater ball protection along the touch-lines. However, when the position is inverted and a winger instead plays inside-out on the opposite flank (i.e., a right-footed player as a left inverted winger), they effectively become supporting strikers and primarily assume a role in the attack.[66]

The "false 10" or "central winger"[55] is a type of midfielder, which differs from the trequartista. Much like the "false 9", their specificity lies in the fact that, although they seemingly play as an attacking midfielder on paper, unlike a traditional playmaker who stays behind the striker in the centre of the pitch, the false 10's goal is to move out of position and drift wide when in possession of the ball to help both the wingers and fullbacks to overload the flanks. This means two problems for the opposing midfielders: either they let the false 10 drift wide, and their presence, along with both the winger and the fullback, creates a three-on-two player advantage out wide; or they follow the false 10, but leave space in the centre of the pitch for wingers or onrushing midfielders to exploit. False 10s are usually traditional wingers who are told to play in the centre of the pitch, and their natural way of playing makes them drift wide and look to provide deliveries into the box for teammates.

In Italian football, the term mezzala (literally "half-winger" in Italian) is used to describe the position of the one or two central midfielders who play on either side of a holding midfielder and/or playmaker. The term was initially applied to the role of an inside forward in the WM and Metodo formations in Italian, but later described a specific type of central midfielder. The mezzala is often a quick and hard-working attack-minded midfielder, with good skills and noted offensive capabilities, as well as a tendency to make overlapping attacking runs, but also a player who participates in the defensive aspect of the game, and who can give width to a team by drifting out wide; as such, the term can be applied to several different roles.

On occasion, the false-10 can also function in a different manner alongside a false-9, usually in a 4–6–0 formation.

We are not stretching the defensive line itsself, but the space between the defensive line and the goalkeeper.

Thiago Motta’s ‘Super Offensive’ 2-7-2 Formation Explained: Instead of the traditional way of looking at a tactical set-up horizontally, the Brazil-born manager instead split the field into three vertical lanes. This means he effectively has seven players in the central channel with two players out wide on each flank.

In his 1972 study of French lute music, scholar Wallace Rave compiled a list of features he believed to be characteristic of style brisé. Rave's list included the following: the avoidance of textural pattern and regularity in part writing; arpeggiated chord textures with irregular distribution of individual notes of the chord; ambiguous melodic lines; rhythmic displacement of notes within a melodic line; octave changes within melodic line; irregular phrase lengths.

Have the Snare and Kick say, "Hi, How are you?" And the 808 say, "I am good thanks for asking.”

Use progressive House to push the Drums Conversation to either Fast and Punchy for Happy or Slow and Deep for Sad.

In technical terms, "go-go's essential beat is characterized by a five through four syncopated rhythm that is underscored prominently by the bass drum and snare drum, and the hi-hat... [and] is ornamented by the other percussion instruments, especially by the conga drums, rototoms, and hand-held cowbells."[5]

Polyrhythm: In music, a cross-beat or cross-rhythm is a specific form of polyrhythm. The term cross rhythm was introduced in 1934 by the musicologist Arthur Morris Jones (1889–1980). It refers to a situation where the rhythmic conflict found in polyrhythms is the basis of an entire musical piece.[1]

Four-on-the-floor (or four-to-the-floor) is a rhythm used primarily in dance genres such as disco and electronic dance music. It is a steady, uniformly accented beat in 4. 4 time in which the bass drum is hit on every beat (1, 2, 3, 4).[1] This was popularized in the disco music of the 1970s[2] and the term four-on-the-floor was widely used in that era, since the beat was played with the pedal-operated, drum-kit bass drum.[3][4] (Punch 808-Kick)

Polyrhythm 4 on the Floor examples 2:4 or 5:4

Hard trance is often characterized by strong, hard (or even downpitch) kicks, fully resonant basses and an increased amount of reverberation applied to the main beat. Melodies vary from 140 to 180 BPMs and it can feature plain instrumental sound in early compositions, with the latter ones tending to implement side-chaining techniques of progressive on digital synthesizers.

Commercialism is the application of both manufacturing and consumption towards personal usage, or the practices, methods, aims, and distribution of products in a free market geared toward generating a profit.

Commercial art is art created for advertising or marketing purposes. Commercial artists are hired by clients to create images and logos that sell products. Unlike works of fine art that convey an artist's personal expression, commercial art must address the client's goals.

The word 'Commercial' is defined as follows: Concerned with or engaged in commerce. Commerce is the exchange of goods or services among two or more parties.

Craftsmen are committed to the medium, not to self-expression. Artists are committed to their self-expression, not the medium.

A medium of exchange is an intermediary instrument and system used to facilitate the purchase and sale of goods and services between parties.

Art Pedagogy: Arts-based pedagogy is a teaching methodology in which an art form is integrated with another subject matter to impact student learning. 28-30. Arts-based pedagogy results in arts-based learning (ABL),11 which is when a student learns about a subject through arts processes including creating, responding or performing. Aesthetic Teaching: Seeking a Balance between Teaching Arts and Teaching through the Arts. In aesthetic education, learning must be developed especially with the inclusion of sensations and with the help of feelings. Sensations and feelings should lead to movement, representation, and expression. Aesthetic learning often entails learning to distinguish certain qualities or objects aesthetically in different ways depending on the situation and the purpose. Certain things can be experienced in negative ways in one activity and in positive ways in another.

IMPERIALISM, THE HIGHEST STAGE OF CAPITALISM

Imperialism, the Highest Stage of Capitalism,[1] originally published as Imperialism, the Newest Stage of Capitalism,[2][3] is a book written by Vladimir Lenin in 1916 and published in 1917. It describes the formation of oligopoly, by the interlacing of bank and industrial capital, in order to create a financial oligarchy, and explains the function of financial capital in generating profits from the exploitation colonialism inherent to imperialism, as the final stage of capitalism. The essay synthesises Lenin's developments of Karl Marx's theories of political economy in Das Kapital (1867).[4]

A clay-court specialist is a tennis player who excels on clay courts, more than on any other surface.

Due in part to advances in racquet technology, current clay-court specialists are known for employing long, winding groundstrokes that generate heavy topspin; such strokes are less effective on faster surfaces on which the balls do not bounce as high. Clay-court specialists tend to slide more effectively on clay than other players. Many of them are also very adept at hitting the drop shot, which can be effective because rallies on clay courts often leave players pushed far beyond the baseline. Additionally, the slow, long rallies require a great degree of mental focus and physical stamina.

CASAPIANOS MARTYROLOGY ORDER (CATHOLIC COUNTER-REFORMATION)

The Casa Pia is a Portuguese institution founded by Maria I, known as A Pia ("Mary the Pious"), and organized by Police Intendant Pina Manique in 1780, following the social disarray of the 1755 Lisbon earthquake. For almost three centuries, thousands of young boys and girls were raised by Casa Pia, including many public personalities, called casapianos. Casa Pia is Portugal's largest educational institution dedicated to helping youngsters in risk of social exclusion or without parental support. The organisation is composed of ten schools and enrolls approximately 4700 students. In addition to standard schooling, the organisation also provides boarding for children in need. It strives to enable these youngsters to become healthy and successful members of society, by developing intellectual, manual, and physical traits, in an environment promoting spiritual, moral, and religious values. The institution is proud to have had amongst its students many outstanding Portuguese personalities, including politicians, journalists, and artists. A martyrology is a catalogue or list of martyrs and other saints and beati arranged in the calendar order of their anniversaries or feasts. Local martyrologies record exclusively the custom of a particular Church. Local lists were enriched by names borrowed from neighbouring churches.[1] Consolidation occurred, by the combination of several local martyrologies, with or without borrowings from literary sources.

The Canons Regular of St. Augustine are priests who live in community under a rule (Latin: regula and κανών, kanon, in Greek) and are generally organised into religious orders, differing from both secular canons and other forms of religious life, such as clerics regular, designated by a partly similar terminology. As religious communities, they have laybrothers as part of the community.

Clerics regular are clerics (mostly priests) who are members of a religious order under a rule of life (regular). Clerics regular differ from canons regular in that they devote themselves more to pastoral care, in place of an obligation to the praying of the Liturgy of the Hours in common, and have fewer observances in their rule of life.

Lay brother is a largely extinct term referring to religious brothers, particularly in the Catholic Church, who focused upon manual service and secular matters, and were distinguished from choir monks or friars in that they did not pray in choir, and from clerics, in that they were not in possession of (or preparing for) holy orders.[1][2][3][4][5]

In female religious institutes, the equivalent role is the lay sister. Lay brothers were originally created to allow those who were skilled in particular crafts or did not have the required education to study for holy orders to participate in and contribute to the life of a religious order.

Lay brothers were found in many religious orders. Drawn from the working classes, they were pious and hardworking people, who though unable to achieve the education needed to receive holy orders, were still drawn to religious life and were able to contribute to the order through their skills. Some were skilled in artistic handicrafts, others functioned as administrators of the orders' material assets. In particular, the lay brothers of the Cistercians were skilled in agriculture, and have been credited for the tilling of fertile farmland.[1]

Lay sisters were found in most of the orders of women, and their origin, like that of the lay brothers, is to be found in the necessity of providing the choir nuns with more time for the Office and study, as well as creating the opportunity for the illiterate to join the religious life. They, too, wore a habit different from those of the choir sisters, and their required daily prayers consisted of prayers such as the Little Office or a certain number of Paters.[1]

All canons regular are to be distinguished from secular canons who belong to a resident group of priests but who do not take public vows and are not governed in whatever elements of life they lead in common by a historical rule. One obvious place where such groups of priests are required is at a cathedral, where there were many Masses to celebrate and the Divine Office to be prayed together in community.

In modern astrology, Mars is the primary native ruler of the first house. Traditionally however, Mars ruled both the third and tenth houses, and had its joy in the fifth house. While Venus tends to the overall relationship atmosphere, Mars is the passionate impulse and action, the masculine aspect, discipline, willpower and stamina.

Mars rules over Tuesday and in Romance languages the word for Tuesday often resembles Mars (in Romanian, marți, in Spanish, martes, in French, mardi and in Italian "martedì"). The English "Tuesday" is a modernised form of "Tyr's Day", Tyr being the Germanic analogue to Mars. Dante Alighieri associated Mars with the liberal art of arithmetic. In Chinese astrology, Mars is ruled by the element fire, which is passionate, energetic and adventurous.

According to John Clements, the term martial arts itself is derived from an older Latin term meaning "arts of Mars", the Roman god of war, and was used to refer to the combat systems of Europe (European martial arts) as early as the 1550s

A religious congregation is a type of religious institute in the Catholic Church. They are legally distinguished from religious orders – the other major type of religious institute – in that members take simple vows, whereas members of religious orders take solemn vows.

In the Catholic Church, a religious order is a community of consecrated life with members that profess solemn vows. They are classed as a type of religious institute.[1]

Material religion is a framework used by scholars of religion to examine the interaction between religion and material culture. It focuses on the place of objects, images, spaces, and buildings in religious communities. The framework has been promoted by scholars such as Birgit Meyer, Sally Promey, S. Brent Plate, David Morgan, etc.

Physiocracy (French: physiocratie; from the Greek for "government of nature") is an economic theory developed by a group of 18th-century Age of Enlightenment French economists who believed that the wealth of nations derived solely from the value of "land agriculture" or "land development" and that agricultural products should be highly priced.[1] Their theories originated in France and were most popular during the second half of the 18th century. Physiocracy became one of the first well-developed theories of economics.

The Bible typically describes the Heavenly host as being made up of angels, and gives several descriptions of angels in military terms, such as their encampment (Genesis 32:1–2), command structure (Psalms 91:11–12; Matt.13:41; Rev.7:2), and participation in combat (Job 19:12; Rev.12:7). Other passages indicate other entities make up the divine army, namely stars (Judges 5:20, Isaiah 40:26).[1][full citation needed] In Christian theology, the heavenly host participate in the war in Heaven.

The doctrine or theory of immanence holds that the divine encompasses or is manifested in the material world. It is held by some philosophical and metaphysical theories of divine presence. Immanence is usually applied in monotheistic, pantheistic, pandeistic, or panentheistic faiths to suggest that the spiritual world permeates the mundane.

The Dionysian Mysteries were a ritual of ancient Greece and Rome which sometimes used intoxicants and other trance-inducing techniques (like dance and music) to remove inhibitions and social constraints, liberating the individual to return to a natural state. 

Religious nationalism can be understood in a number of ways, such as nationalism as a religion itself, a position articulated by Carlton Hayes in his text Nationalism: A Religion, or as the relationship of nationalism to a particular religious belief, dogma, ideology, or affiliation. This relationship can be broken down into two aspects: the politicisation of religion and the influence of religion on politics.

Dioceses ruled by an archbishop are commonly referred to as archdioceses; most are metropolitan sees, being placed at the head of an ecclesiastical province. In the Catholic Church, some are suffragans of a metropolitan see or are directly subject to the Holy See.

The body of light, sometimes called the 'astral body'[a] or the 'subtle body,'[b] is a "quasi material"[1] aspect of the human body, being neither solely physical nor solely spiritual, posited by a number of philosophers, and elaborated on according to various esoteric, occult, and mystical teachings. Other terms used for this body include body of glory,[2] spirit-body, luciform body, augoeides ('radiant body'), astroeides ('starry or sidereal body'), and celestial body.[3] The concept derives from the philosophy of Plato: the word 'astral' means 'of the stars'; thus the astral plane consists of the Seven Heavens of the classical planets. The idea is rooted in common worldwide religious accounts of the afterlife[4] in which the soul's journey or "ascent" is described in such terms as "an ecstatic, mystical or out-of body experience, wherein the spiritual traveller leaves the physical body and travels in their body of light into 'higher' realms."[5]

The canon law of the Catholic Church (from Latin ius canonicum[1]) is "how the Church organizes and governs herself".[2] It is the system of laws and ecclesiastical legal principles made and enforced by the hierarchical authorities of the Catholic Church to regulate its external organization and government and to order and direct the activities of Catholics toward the mission of the Church.

An institute of consecrated life is an association of faithful in the Catholic Church canonically erected by competent church authorities to enable men or women who publicly profess the evangelical counsels by religious vows or other sacred bonds "through the charity to which these counsels lead to be joined to the Church and its mystery in a special way".[1] They are defined in the 1983 Code of Canon Law under canons 573–730. The Congregation for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life has ecclesial oversight of institutes of consecrated life.[2]

In Christianity, the three evangelical counsels, or counsels of perfection, are chastity (NEVER), poverty (or perfect charity), and obedience (RECKLESS ABANDONMENT).[1] As stated by Jesus in the canonical gospels,[2] they are counsels for those who desire to become "perfect" (τελειος, teleios).[3][4] The Catholic Church interprets this to mean that they are not binding upon all, and hence not necessary conditions to attain eternal life (heaven), but that they are "acts of supererogation", "over and above" the minimum stipulated in the biblical commandments.[5][6]

Catholics who have made a public profession to order their lives by the evangelical counsels, and confirmed this by public vows before their competent church authority (the act of religious commitment known as a profession), are recognised as members of the consecrated life.

The Council of Trent (Latin: Concilium Tridentinum), held between 1545 and 1563 in Trent (or Trento), now in northern Italy, was the 19th ecumenical council of the Catholic Church. Prompted by the Protestant Reformation at the time, it has been described as the embodiment of the Counter-Reformation. The Council issued key statements and clarifications of the Church's doctrine and teachings, including scripture, the biblical canon, sacred tradition, original sin, justification, salvation, the sacraments, the Mass, and the veneration of saints[4] and also issued condemnations of what it defined to be heresies committed by proponents of Protestantism. The consequences of the Council were also significant with regard to the Church's liturgy and censorship.

Initiated in part to address the challenges of the Protestant Reformations,[3] the Counter-Reformation was a comprehensive effort arising from the decrees of the Council of Trent. The effort produced apologetic and polemical documents, heresy trials, anti-corruption efforts, spiritual movements, the promotion of new religious orders, and the flourishing of new art and musical styles. 

Tradwave is a Catholic artistic style using synthwave and vaporwave art to promote traditional catholicism. Tradwave usually uses traditional catholic paintings, sculptures, or photographs of saints, given with vaporwave effects, often with a bible verse or quote about catholicism. The art usually tries to convey a resurrection of catholic spirituality in the modern atheist world. Figures often depicted in Tradwave art include Jesus Christ, the Virgin Mary, Ven. Fulton Sheen, Cardinal Robert Sarah, and Mother Angelica.

Tradwave music often takes the form of two main styles. One of them is catholic hymns with vaporwave effects and traditional Vaporwave/Lo-Fi music. It can also have quotes from modern prolific Catholic figures, such as Ven. The other theme is Fulton Sheen and Cardinal Robert Sarah.

Heavenly Virtues: Another phrase to describe this obedience to the voice is “reckless abandon.” It simply means that we let God do what God wants to do through us. It means if He tells us to do something or say something—we do it.

Intercession or intercessory prayer is the act of praying to a deity on behalf of others, or asking a saint in heaven to pray on behalf of oneself or for others. Intercession of the Saints is a Christian doctrine that maintains that saints can intercede for others. To intercede is to go or come between two parties, to plead before one of them on behalf of the other. In ecclesiastical usage both words are taken in the sense of the intervention primarily of Christ, and secondarily of the Blessed Virgin and the angels and saints, on behalf of men.[2] The doctrine is held by the Catholic, Eastern Orthodox Churches, the Assyrian Church of the East, the Oriental Orthodox churches , and some Lutherans and Anglicans (chiefly those of Evangelical Catholic or Anglo-Catholic churchmanship, respectively).[3] The practice of asking saints for their intercession can be found in Christian writings from the 3rd century onwards.[4][5][6] Catholic doctrine supports intercessory prayer to saints. This practice is an application of the doctrine of the Communion of saints. Some of the early basis for this was the belief that martyrs passed immediately into the presence of God and could obtain graces and blessings for others, which naturally and immediately led to their direct invocation. A further reinforcement was derived from the cult of the angels which, while pre-Christian in its origin, was heartily embraced by the faithful of the sub-Apostolic age. The doctrine of intercession and invocation was set forth by the Council of Trent, which teaches that "... the saints who reign together with Christ offer up their own prayers to God for men. It is good and useful suppliantly to invoke them, and to have recourse to their prayers, aid, and help for obtaining benefits from God, through His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, Who alone is our Redeemer and Saviour".[10] Intercessory prayer to saintly persons who have not yet been beatified can also practiced by individuals, and evidence of miracles produced as a result of such prayer is very commonly produced during the formal process of beatification and canonization.

In short, the gun-toting angel was a multifaceted metaphor. “It undoubtedly also reflected the Catholic Counter-Reformation militaristic rhetoric,” wrote Donahue-Wallace, “which promoted the church as an army and heavenly beings as its soldiers.” These "Harquebusier Angels" or "Arcabuceros" are full-length depictions of winged angels, elaborately dressed, and carrying matchlock guns (harquebuses).

The related term astrolatry usually implies polytheism. In anthropological literature these systems of practice may be referred to as astral cults.

A friar is a member of one of the mendicant orders in the Roman Catholic Church. There are also friars outside of the Roman Catholic Church, such as within the Anglican Communion. The term, first used in the 12th or 13th century, distinguishes the mendicants' itinerant apostolic character, exercised broadly under the jurisdiction of a superior general, from the older monastic orders' allegiance to a single monastery formalized by their vow of stability. A friar may be in holy orders or be a non-ordained brother. The most significant orders of friars are the Dominicans, Franciscans, Augustinians, and Carmelites.[1]

Romans 8:31; Exploring Biblical Imagery is one of the most important keys to interpreting and gaining a deeper understanding of the Bible. The Bible often communicates truth to us through images and patterns.

Throughout history, armed priests or soldier priests have been recorded. Distinguished from military chaplains, who are non-combatants that provided spiritual guidance to service personnel and associated civilians, these priests took up arms and fought in conflicts as combatants. The term warrior priests or war priests is usually used for armed priests in Antiquity and the Middle Ages, and of historical tribes.

Slang: In Romans 8:5-8, Paul presents a compelling contrast between living according to the flesh and living according to the Spirit. The flesh, with its disordered desires and rebellion against God, leads only to spiritual desolation. Martyr, one who voluntarily suffers death rather than deny their religion by words or deeds; such action is afforded special, institutionalized recognition in most major religions of the world. The term may also refer to anyone who sacrifices their life or something of great value for the sake of principle. A religious allusion is a brief reference to a person, event, place, or phrase from religious texts or traditions, without describing them in detail. 5 Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. 6 The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. 7 The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. 8 Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God. Martyr/Romans 8 Allusion Slang.

Romeu e Julieta (Casapianos Order 1996 Adaptation 18+ Romance Thriller)

While it retains the original Shakespearean dialogue, the film represents the Montagues and the Capulets as warring mafia empires (with legitimate business fronts) and the Capulets were "a Latin family, sort of,"[15] played by Latin-American and Italian actors.[16] It is set in contemporary United States, where swords are replaced by guns[17] (with model names such as "Dagger", "Sword", and "Rapier"), and with a FedEx-style overnight delivery service called "Post Haste".[18] Shakespeare and Impure Aesthetics explores ideas about art implicit in Shakespeare's plays and defines specific Shakespearean aesthetic practices in his use of desire, death and mourning as resources for art. In fiction, a subplot or side story is a secondary strand of the plot that is a supporting side story for any story or for the main plot. Subplots may connect to main plots, in either time and place or thematic significance. Subplots often involve supporting characters, those besides the protagonist or antagonist. Subplots may also intertwine with the main plot at some point in a story.[1]

THE ENCYCLICAL PASSIONARIES ABOUT YHVH CASAPIANOS

Specifically, the royal psalms deal with the spiritual role of kings in the worship of Yahweh. Aside from that single qualification, there is nothing else which specifically links the ten psalms. Each of the psalms make explicit references to their subject, the king. Royal (messianic) psalms deal with the king as God's anointed or chosen one. Many are prayers for the wisdom of the king, his long life or success in battle. Some are prophetic in nature in that they also point to the ideal future king, the Messiah or the King of kings. A martyrology is a catalogue or list of martyrs and other saints and beati arranged in the calendar order of their anniversaries or feasts. Local martyrologies record exclusively the custom of a particular Church. Local lists were enriched by names borrowed from neighbouring churches.[1] Consolidation occurred, by the combination of several local martyrologies, with or without borrowings from literary sources. Simple martyrologies only enumerate names. Historical martyrologies, also sometimes called passionaries, also include stories or biographical details. (Reckless Abandonment; Mars Shamanism and Casa Pia Wing Transfer Invocation)

In the martyrdom narrative of the remembering community, this refusal to comply with the presented demands results in the punishment or execution of an individual by an oppressor. Accordingly, the status of the 'martyr' can be considered a posthumous title as a reward for those who are considered worthy of the concept of martyrdom by the living, regardless of any attempts by the deceased to control how they will be remembered in advance.[1] Insofar, the martyr is a relational figure of a society's boundary work that is produced by collective memory.[2] Originally applied only to those who suffered for their religious beliefs, the term has come to be used in connection with people killed for a political cause. (Armed Friars and The War for Central Africa between Casapianos and The French; The Fall of Yoruba for Bembé; Arcubusier Angels in Africa)

The Metal Ages is a term for the period of human civilization beginning about 6,000 years ago during which metallurgy rapidly advanced, and human populations started using metals such as copper, tin, bronze and finally iron to make tools and weapons. By heating and shaping metals in hot furnaces, humanity also learned to use precious metals such as gold and silver to make intricate ornaments.[1][2] With these technological adaptions, human society became more productive and human settlements became larger and more prosperous, but also more violent.[3] The Metal Ages are divided into three stages: the Copper Age, the Bronze Age, and the Iron Age.[1][2] (Calcium Age of Angola)

CASA PIA REPUBLIC

[spann-stann]

Setting Blurb: Imperial Land Force (Reworked)

Overview: During the reign of the Second Dynasty, the Imperial Armed Forces was subject to a massive overhaul. The increase in interplanetary travel and construction of orbital infrastructure resulted in the Aerospace Force's "Space" half to be split as the Space Force, and the logistical and organizational Support Service Force was created to consolidate the Armed Forces' military support components. The remaining ground, air, and sea combat arms were consolidated into the Imperial Land Force (the name still irks its Naval and Air components to this day).

The core of Imperial armies have remained the same since the days of Operation JANISSARY, all Soldier households within a geographic region are organized into a Bandon (for Land and Support Service Forces, a Space Force Bandon consists of a Mothership's crew). Bandons are further divided into 3-5 Tumens (CorpEmp's equivalent of a Division), and has smaller independent formations attached. Tumens combine their 25 subordinate battalions into larger, temporary formations known as Maneuver Forces. Maneuver Forces come and go to meet their parent Tumen's needs in a battle space.

Although they form a majority of personnel in the Imperial Armed Forces, Soldier-class personnel do not solely populate the IAF. Worker-class civilians are allowed in if they test into it following their vocational testing (most inductees enter the Support Service Force, with their descendants more likely to enter the Land or Space Forces), and it times of war paramilitary auxiliaries are absorbed into the Land Force's structure. Said auxiliaries range from Worker-class militias, Ruler-class retinues, Priestly warbands, and formations of Soldiers not selected for active duty.

Sphere Army: Consists of all Field Armies assigned to a planetary body/system (Ex: Earth Sphere Army, Mars Sphere Army, etc.). Each Sphere Army is commanded by a Paladin of the order of Imperial Knights.

Field Army: Field Armies consist of at least three to five Bandons and oversee a Viceroyalty on Earth or the and are commanded by a Lord Field Marshall from the order of Imperial Knights. Field Armies are divided into two categories. Garrison Armies are assigned to a particular territory, and Mobile Armies travel across CorpEmp territory to supplement Garrison forces. Subunits within Imperial Field Armies are classified as follows:

Bandon: Bandons, or Banners, consist of all Soldier class households in a region of one or more MacroCommunities. Bandons are commanded by senior Knight Generals from the Imperial Knights.

Tumens: Consisting of twenty-five battalions, attached Support Service Force units, and one aircraft wing, Tumens are commanded by junior Knight Generals.

The Role of Bitcoin in the Future of Global Trade: Repricing the World on Truth

Global trade, the lifeblood of our interconnected world, has long been dependent on a patchwork of national currencies, each subject to the whims of inflation, devaluation, and political manipulation. This complex and often opaque system distorts the true value of goods and services, creating inefficiencies and imbalances that hinder economic progress and exacerbate inequality. As the world grapples with the consequences of these distortions, a new form of money, Bitcoin, has emerged as a potential solution—one that could revolutionize global trade by repricing everything based on truth rather than a lie.

The Flaws of the Current System

The current global trade system is deeply flawed, primarily because it relies on fiat currencies—money that governments can print at will, without being backed by any tangible asset. This leads to several significant issues:

Inflation and Devaluation: Governments often resort to printing more money to cover deficits or stimulate growth, leading to inflation. This inflation erodes the purchasing power of currency, distorts prices, and creates uncertainty in global trade. Countries with weaker currencies are particularly vulnerable, as their goods and services become undervalued in the global market, further entrenching economic disparities.

Political Manipulation: Fiat currencies are also susceptible to political manipulation. Governments and central banks can intervene in currency markets, adjusting exchange rates to suit their economic or political agendas. These interventions can lead to artificial price distortions, benefiting some nations while disadvantaging others.

Inefficiencies in Trade: The need to exchange currencies introduces inefficiencies in global trade, including transaction costs, exchange rate risks, and delays. These inefficiencies can stifle trade, particularly for smaller businesses and developing countries that lack the financial infrastructure to manage complex currency exchanges.

Bitcoin as Sound Money

Bitcoin offers a compelling alternative to fiat currencies. As a form of sound money, Bitcoin possesses several qualities that make it an ideal candidate for reshaping global trade:

Fixed Supply: Bitcoin’s supply is capped at 21 million coins, making it immune to inflationary pressures. This fixed supply ensures that Bitcoin’s value cannot be eroded by government intervention or excessive money printing, providing a stable store of value.

Decentralization: Bitcoin operates on a decentralized network, free from the control of any single government or entity. This decentralization ensures that no one can manipulate its value for political or economic gain, fostering a more level playing field in global trade.

Transparency and Security: Bitcoin’s underlying blockchain technology provides unparalleled transparency and security. Every transaction is recorded on a public ledger, accessible to anyone, which reduces the risk of fraud and corruption. This transparency builds trust, a crucial factor in facilitating global trade.

Repricing the World Based on Truth

The introduction of Bitcoin as a global standard of sound money could lead to a fundamental repricing of goods, services, and assets—one that reflects their true value rather than being distorted by fiat currency manipulation.

Truthful Pricing: In a world where Bitcoin is the dominant form of money, prices would be set based on the real value of goods and services, free from the distortions caused by inflation and currency devaluation. This “truthful pricing” would enable businesses and consumers to make more informed decisions, leading to more efficient markets.

Examples of Repricing: Consider the global commodities market. Under the current system, the prices of oil, gold, and other commodities are often influenced by fluctuations in the US dollar and other major currencies. With Bitcoin, these commodities would be priced in a universally recognized and stable currency, reflecting their true market value. Similarly, in international trade, the cost of goods and services would be more predictable, allowing for fairer and more consistent pricing across borders.

The Impact on Global Trade

The adoption of Bitcoin in global trade could lead to several transformative effects:

Simplification of Trade: Bitcoin could simplify global trade by eliminating the need for currency exchange. Businesses would no longer need to navigate the complexities of multiple currencies, reducing transaction costs and exchange rate risks. This simplification would be particularly beneficial for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and businesses in developing countries, allowing them to compete more effectively in the global market.

Increased Efficiency: By reducing transaction costs and delays, Bitcoin could make global trade more efficient. Transactions can be completed more quickly and with lower fees, enabling businesses to operate more smoothly and with greater predictability.

Economic Empowerment: Perhaps most importantly, Bitcoin could level the playing field for developing countries and underserved populations. By providing access to a stable and universally accepted currency, Bitcoin could empower individuals and businesses in these regions to participate more fully in the global economy, fostering innovation and economic growth.

Conclusion

As the world stands on the brink of a new financial era, Bitcoin offers a vision of global trade that is more transparent, efficient, and fair. By repricing the world based on truth rather than the distortions of fiat currencies, Bitcoin has the potential to unlock unprecedented opportunities for economic growth and development. As we look to the future, the role of Bitcoin in global trade may prove to be not just revolutionary, but essential to creating a more just and prosperous world.

Whether you manage a transport fleet, operate earthmoving machinery, or run a diesel-powered generator, waiting hours (or even days) to get it back up and running can have serious operational and financial consequences. That’s where mobile diesel mechanic services come in — offering responsive, on-site repairs and maintenance that minimise downtime and restore productivity fast.

But how do these services work, what can they really offer, and who should be using them? Let’s break it down.

What Are Mobile Diesel Mechanic Services?

At its core, a mobile diesel mechanic service brings a fully equipped workshop directly to your location. These professionals travel to your site — whether that’s a jobsite, farm, mine, depot, or roadside — with diagnostic tools, replacement parts, and the know-how to fix most diesel issues on the spot.

Mobile diesel technicians handle a wide range of tasks, including:

Fault diagnosis and troubleshooting

Preventative maintenance servicing

Engine, fuel system, and turbocharger repairs

Hydraulic and transmission system maintenance

Battery replacements and electrical work

Emergency breakdown response

One of the key benefits of mobile diesel mechanic services is their ability to perform complex repairs in the field, without needing to tow your vehicle or equipment to a fixed workshop.

To see how this works in practice, you can explore mobile diesel mechanic services with East Coast Diesel, where qualified technicians are deployed with industry-standard tools to support heavy vehicle fleets, civil machinery, and agricultural equipment across NSW and QLD.

Why Mobile Repairs May Be a Smarter Choice

Traditional workshops serve a purpose, but they often introduce delays — particularly when dealing with remote locations or vehicles that aren’t drivable. Mobile services reduce downtime significantly by coming directly to you.

Here’s why businesses increasingly rely on mobile mechanics:

No need to tow or relocate equipment

Faster response times during breakdowns

Flexible scheduling and after-hours availability

Repairs done in familiar operating environments

Reduced labour costs and less administrative overhead

In fast-moving industries like logistics, mining, construction, and agriculture, time off the road or out of the field can mean lost contracts or interrupted operations. On-site repairs allow critical assets to get back to work sooner.

When you get mobile diesel mechanic services by East Coast Diesel, you’re engaging a team that understands the urgency of the job and prioritises speed, safety, and reliable outcomes.

Common Scenarios Where Mobile Diesel Mechanics Prove Invaluable

Let’s say your excavator stalls mid-job on a rural site, or your truck’s turbo blows while hauling freight at 2am. In both cases, calling a mobile diesel tech could mean the difference between hours of dead time and a same-day fix.

Some of the most common situations mobile diesel mechanics respond to include:

Heavy vehicle breakdowns on regional roads or highways

Agricultural machinery stalling during harvest

Mining or construction gear losing hydraulic function

Fleet maintenance requirements during off-hours

Generator failures on isolated job sites

Having a mobile technician arrive with the right parts and diagnostics tools, ready to work in the field, may save you from logistical headaches and costly delays.

How Preventative Maintenance Works in the Field

Mobile diesel services aren’t just for breakdowns. Preventative maintenance is a large part of their offering — and it’s often where the biggest savings occur. Regular on-site inspections and servicing help detect issues before they escalate.

This includes:

Fluid top-ups and replacements

Filter changes

Checking for wear in belts, hoses, and injectors

Software diagnostics and ECU scans

Engine performance assessments

By identifying problems early, mobile diesel techs help avoid catastrophic failure, unscheduled downtime, and expensive component replacements.

Companies like East Coast Diesel offer ongoing fleet maintenance programs, scheduling recurring site visits to service multiple vehicles in one visit — saving time and keeping businesses compliant with safety regulations.

What Makes a Reliable Mobile Diesel Service Provider?

Not all mobile mechanics are equal. When choosing a provider, consider these key qualities:

24/7 availability and fast response times

Fully stocked service vehicles with quality parts

Licensed and insured diesel technicians

Experience across multiple diesel brands and machinery types

Strong safety protocols and site-specific compliance knowledge

Providers like East Coast Diesel meet these standards, offering qualified mobile diesel mechanics who are familiar with Cummins, CAT, Isuzu, Volvo, Detroit Diesel, and more. Their team works across multiple industries and terrain types, adapting their service model to each client’s environment.

Serving Fleets, Farms, and Remote Worksites

Mobile diesel mechanic services aren’t just for big transport companies or commercial construction sites. They’re used by:

Local councils managing roadwork equipment

Rural farmers needing urgent harvester repair

Remote infrastructure projects with no nearby workshop

Trucking fleets requiring roadside support

Civil contractors maintaining plant and equipment

Whether it’s a one-off fix or an ongoing maintenance arrangement, mobile support keeps everything moving where and when it matters most.

With mobile diesel repairs and maintenance from East Coast Diesel, your business gains a responsive service partner committed to reducing downtime, keeping your fleet compliant, and supporting your operations with confidence.

Final Thoughts: Convenience Without Compromise

Mobile diesel mechanic services are no longer a luxury – they’re becoming standard practice for operations that rely on diesel-powered machinery. Their value lies in their flexibility, expertise, and ability to keep your assets in peak condition without disrupting your schedule.

By choosing a provider like East Coast Diesel, you get more than just mobile repairs — you gain an extension of your team. Their mechanics operate with the same urgency and accountability as an in-house technician, backed by experience across various industries and vehicle types.

If you need fast, reliable, and professional diesel support where you are, don’t wait for a workshop appointment — take the workshop to you.

How Software- Defined Vehicle Technology is Transforming Construction and Agricultural vehicles and Equipment

Construction and agricultural vehicles are no longer just powerful machines—they are becoming intelligent systems. The transition to Software Defined Vehicle (SDV) technology is revolutionizing how equipment operates, adapts, and evolves.

Backed by cloud integration, programmable features, real-time diagnostics, over-the-air capabilities, and increasing levels of AI, SDVs are making machinery smarter, safer, and more productive - from remotely driven earth movers to autonomous tractors, the machines of today’s construction and agricultural industries are experiencing a revolution—powered not by heavier engines or more significant hydraulics but by more creative software.

This transition to Software Defined Vehicles (SDVs) allows equipment to be more intelligent, flexible, and future-ready. With software evolving as the backbone of contemporary machinery, OEMs and fleet operators are discovering new ways to upgrade performance, improve uptime, and unlock feature flexibility—all without ever setting foot in a service center.

Here's how software-defined vehicle technology is rewriting the rulebook for off-highway vehicles:

1. Increasing Software Content: Intelligence Is the New Horsepower

The average construction and agriculture vehicle now has more software-driven features than ever before, controlling everything from transmission, engine and braking behavior to diagnostics, navigation, and attachments. Much of a machine's "personality" is now shaped by its software.

This increasing software content allows manufacturers to:

Standardize platforms across multiple models

Add new capabilities to their platforms

Simplify maintenance through real-time digital diagnostics

It's no longer only about what's under the hood—but also what's written in the code.

2. OEM-Initiated OTA Updates: Improving Equipment from Afar

With traditional machinery, upgrades meant downtime, technician visits, and often manual interventions. Now, over-the-air (OTA) updates let OEMs remotely push enhancements, bug fixes, or regulatory patches straight to equipment—anytime, anywhere.

These updates can:

Improve performance and reliability

Extend product life cycles

Ensure regulatory compliance without disruptions

Excelfore solutions enable centralized management of these updates, allowing manufacturers to keep their entire fleet optimized from a single dashboard—securely, efficiently, and without taking machines out of operation.

3. Owner/Operator-Initiated OTA Updates: custom features, on demand

Sometimes, it's not about fixing; it's about customizing.

Software-defined vehicles empower owners and operators to unlock new features or modes of operation on demand. Need enhanced traction control for a wet site or a new GPS mapping function for a larger field? Activate it with a secure OTA update.

This approach delivers:

Flexibility to respond to real-time job site demands

Better cost control with feature-based pricing

Operational agility and higher asset utilization without added hardware complexity

It's about giving operators the power to get more out of their machines—without waiting for factory upgrades or field visits.

4. Infrastructure for OTA on Demand: Built to Scale, Designed for the field

A rock-solid technical foundation powers all this flexibility. The Excelfore OTA infrastructure is engineered specifically for the rugged and remote environments that construction and agriculture demand.

Key enablers include:

Delta Compression – Reduces data volume by sending only changes, making updates faster and lighter on bandwidth

Cloud-native architecture – Ensures scalability across fleets of all sizes

Robust security protocols – Safeguards every update from tampering or failure

Real-time diagnostics integration – Lets updates happen in sync with equipment performance data

This isn't just an upgrade—it's a more innovative way to manage every stage of the equipment lifecycle.

The Bottom Line

Software-defined vehicle technology turns construction and agricultural equipment into platforms for continuous improvement, deeper insight, and real-time control. Whether you're an OEM looking to expand the market opportunities for your fleet or an operator needing more innovative tools on-site, SDVs offer the edge you need.
