General realizations ab shifting that helped me
The void is not a realm or a place- it is YOU. You ARE the Void. The Void is solely the awareness of being, fully.
You are not ONE being. Think of the consciousness in you as being interconnected with all other infinite versions of you. These interconnections converge into your full consciousness, the true YOU. It's almost Eldritch to think about.
Something I'm just now thinking of, perhaps this means the subconscious is all other versions of you- you're separated and cut off from experiencing the entirety of being, but that entirety is still there, guiding you from behind the scenes.
No matter what the assumption, "I am" is true. I am kind, as my actions and thoughts show, but I'm also cruel and cold-hearted, as may be the perception of another. I think I'm funny, but someone else may think I'm cheesy- therefore, I am both. And this also goes for the personas of myself in other realities. I am everything. Simultaneously, this also means I am Nothing. I simply am.
To add to the points above, I believe this "Eldritch" conglomerate is what we call the Void state, and would explain why every manifestation happens instantly once we reach this state. Think of it like accessing the files in an infinite data base- all you need to do is find the files you're looking for and download them.
As much as people will try to stress things like "you need to let go" or realizing that shifting is easy, you won't truly be able to understand what they're saying until you experience it.
All things exist at once and every inconceivably small action creates a new reality. As small as "this single cell from 7000 years ago died .000000001 seconds prematurely", and smaller.
Shifting IS easy- in the same way that gleeking or stretching is easy. Some people are able to do it on command or go further than others with no training whatsoever. Others may do it accidentally and sporadically. This does not mean the latter are unable to do these things at will, but they simply need a bit of help learning to do it on command.
Question stressing you out? "But what about this plot hole?", "How does XYZ work??", "What will happen back in my OR???"- STOP. No need to stress yourself over that, this by itself I feel cost me years on my journey. Everything will work out. It doesn't matter how, but it will, and it will either even itself out or be in your favor. Don't even think about those things. Relax.
Another one that held me back MASSIVELY. Struggling to visualize your DR? "I know it has THIS SPECIFIC TABLE in this SPECIFIC place and everything has to be perfect"! No. Your visualization does Not need to be perfect. Nor does it have to be "accurate", really. Once you just let your mind wander and let your subconscious make up it's own layout, it'll help you slip in much more easily. I put so much pressure on myself to make sure I was visualizing my specific reality, and it became so much easier when I just trusted myself to build it up from my subconscious instead of "forcing" a look
They say once it's in the 4D (imagination), it's already real. That's why you're encouraged to embody, think, act, feel as your DR self. Like playing pretend as a kid, you'll be so focused on your imagination, you don't even realize you're in your OR. If you don't shift through that alone, it certainly helps make you feel far more connected. This is also why I came up with the Furina method (although I suppose it's debatable if I really "came up" with it)
Methods/Advice are like pants. Some are too itchy, some are too tight, some you like the feel of but there's just some small flaw. When you find what you were missing, what you needed to hear, it'll be a perfect fit.

every single thing involving a computer is designed to put something into our senses. until a human looks at it, and interprets it, it is nothing. it isn't 'data'. it isn't 'ones and zeroes'. it's just some electrons and photons moving around, as is their wont.
but if we arrange those electrons just so, and let them do their thing, we can create a pattern that someone will experience as bits, registers, numbers, letters, instructions, algorithms, messages, financial transactions, videos, thoughts, worlds, etc etc.
the whole project of computer programming is corraling the electrons into situations where they will obey rules we have in our heads. electrons are surprisingly predictable, so this isn't a fool's errand. but every layer of the stack of abstractions is something we built: arranging one thing to produce a pattern we want to see. the chip arranged so the 'high and low voltages' fit our idea of 'bits' and 'logic gates'. the screen whose lights create a 'field of colour' for an organism that has this level of visual acuity, this frequency response in its cone cells, this capacity to see shapes and edges. these bits and logic organised into an 'algorithm' that takes 'data' that we think of as 'vertices' and 'triangles' and produces the appearance of 'perspective rendering', which approximates our concept of a '3D object', of even a 'virtual world'.
we have gotten so very very good at producing these patterns that it's easy to see them as something natural, and miss all the layers of orchestration behind even the simplest operation. computers are a game played between humans.

hey..
at what point do collectors opt to turn things from puppets to scrolls? I feel like turning an entire living creature into [a piece of paper] is very complicated, while turning them into simple puppets is easier because they keep all the same parts, just simplified and wood?
It is! It depends on the person's proficiency and understanding of the mechanism regarding when and how they change the creature. Once someone gets good at it, the creature can be transformed into a lifeless object without it dying in the process, and they will move on to more complex and efficient ways.
The way I see it, archiving is a form of information compression and storage—and there is A LOT of information. When looking at Earth creatures we have everything from single-cell bacteria to whales that range up to 100 quadrillion cells, all with different sizes. The smallest single-cell critter is 0.3 μm, while the largest single cell is an ostrich egg that can get to 18 cm. So it's not just noting "a cell"—there's also a lot of information about the cell content, size, the DNA, current water, and oxygen levels, what protein it contains and how much. Then there are spatial dimensions. (While we can consider there being more, especially in fiction, I’m sticking to three; trying to visualize four fills me with frustration and existential dread xD) Every cell has its place in space in relation to the others, and all the contents' relations are also important. If, suddenly, all histones materialize inside a mitochondria instead of the nucleus, we can have a problem. Additionally, physical and chemical processes gotta be considered. There's electricity powering our brains, hearts, running nerves, air in airways traveling to lungs, chemical signals traveling between synapses that also need to be accounted for. So, you have all the contents in space, their vectors, and building blocks. Thats a ton to save. This information has to be compressed to be preserved in an organized manner while also remaining lossless so that when returned to its original shape, it's as it was. Not even mentioning that in intelligent beings, there are also minds to take care of. Jellyfish might be fine after 100 years in a static void, but a human? Yhhhhh.
I think the mechanism would work by saving information in intangible magic and assigning it to a physical medium—be it a statue, doll, book, or scroll. If it is physical and can carry information, it can be used. We can argue the mind is part of the soul, or it is a biochemical process, but the fact is nobody really knows for sure what it is and Im not a theolog, so for the sake of this universe, I'll say it's something that occupies the same space magic does and is influenced by chemical processes, meeeeaning it can also be tricked by them. And the magic.
The first degree of preservation would be spells that only change the material but keep all shapes and info in place. This wouldn't require much thought while executing and could be "automated" or worse, taught to mortals (if they have enough magic to power the spell), like petrification or changing someone into wood, metal, or any other solid material. It's not perfect, if the structure is damaged, the spatial information is damaged too. Breaking is one thing, but imagine if the statue melts.
The next step would be assigning objects with some compression and change, like toys and dolls. I feel like there would need to be a system like a content library, so not every single atom is saved each time, but chemical structures like nucleotides in DNA (the ATGC thingies) would just have a shortcut. Larger repeating patterns could also be assigned their own id to save data, and it would slowly stack up. While things are written in intangible magic form and anchored to the medium, the medium can be somewhat customized, like the decorations the Collector added to the dolls. The mind, running in controlled magic, can also be affected, as we saw with Collie trying to scare them and Luz’s dream. On the spell keeping the preserved critter stable has a link to what shortcut it uses so with countless diffrent worlds and structres it wouldnt mix up.
Then we go further into compression, reducing size and dimensions until we reach a point where one axis is almost entirely removed, and we end up with a scroll. Then there are other things—creatures saved as amber miniatures, snow globes, scrolls, or drawings, sometimes purely to annoy the sibling that has to deal with the creature in unhandy form. A more permanent binding would be in a book that can contain a bunch of different animals. Rebinding for long-term preservation is the Curator’s job.
Looking at Earth creatures, eucariotic life shares ancestry with some ancient bacteria that decided to rebel and started to cooperate, so we share similarities even with distant organisms in some strutures since they come from each other. So when it comes to preserving whole populations with relations, the library of compression doesn’t have to be separate for every single animal or plant. For each section of the archive, there would be a common library of building blocks, and scrolls being somewhat separate carrying the exact instructions for body arrangement and the soul/mind/the part that makes them alive attached.
Next is unpacking the information. I think this requires the ability to interpret and recreate what was saved that mortals lack. While they couldn't really unpetrify others, a collector could (assuming the mind hadn’t deteriorated into a husk). In the case of an automated spell, I think it would result in a very lossy transmutation—like a jpg losing pixels, the creature might lose like heart funtion. The Collector's spell also looked temporary or incomplete since an influx of other types of magic (like in Amity or Raine’s case) was able to push back on it. That might also be why they were conscious in the form they were in. Not meant for long just enough to take them to archive in normal conditions. When a creature is heavily compressed, it needs external force to rebuild, as it's essentially written fully in magic. That’s what I think happened to the Owl Beast. Lilith released it from the medium, but since it wasn’t fully rebuilt, it being a magic form attached itself to a magic source.
SO YEAH, its a process that takes quite a while for them to master and it comes with experience. But when experience is based on life it often makes it hard to practice so those with less empathetic approach master it faster. Thanks for the ask! I was dying to talk about that for such a long time and that was a perfect thing to organise thoughts

The Best Thing I Added to My Notes
Daily Blogs 359 - Oct 29th, 12.024
This is probably the best thing I added to my daily notes.
Tumblr media
What?
This is a routine heatmap. The simple explanation is that is shows how many tasks related to my routine I have done in that day, the brighter, the more tasks.
Tumblr media
Why?
One of the things that I found is that I'm very easily insecure about myself. Even if I'm doing fine and working on the things that I like, I still have days when I almost forget everything and start doubting myself over and over thinking that I'm not doing enough. This situation happened to me a lot over the previous year, and because of the amount of pressure I placed in myself in these attacks, I started to just feel demotivated and started to stagnate. I never could really prove to myself.
And then I found about this concept, I don't know where or when necessarily, but it was about having data to prove to your own brain that you are supposed to be fine, have palpable methods to convince yourself. Not only having proof, but also, having constant feedback if you are doing fine or if you need to actually question and do a course correction.
This map, this calendar, is what proves to myself that I'm doing fine and that I am improving. Every single day I look into it since it is on my daily notes, and I can see if there are any worries or not, there's no reason anymore to doubt myself as much. Even tho not all days are the brightness, mostly because they are based on the current amount of tasks of the current routine, I can't say to myself that I'm not trying. If any of these days there is a strange black void, I can just click into it, and go back memory lane to remember.
Also, the instant feedback is great. Since I know how the brightness is calculated and that it cares about the percentage of tasks of the current routine, I don't really care that much about older cells, but I do care if some pattern start to arrive in the recent ones. Like the stripe in the first quarter of the year, when I was helping my family and wasn't able to work that much, and the brightness of the last half of the year, when I got a job and organized better my work.
And as a bonus, this map also helps me know where I am in the year. Since I do Quarterly Themes, somewhat aligned with the year seasons, having a visual clue to know what quarter I am, even more when the seasons don't affect that much the look of the ambient outside home, really helps. This clue is not only via the amount of days that passed in the calendar, but also it's color:
Red for summer, quarter one:
Tumblr media
Red for autumn, quarter two:
Tumblr media
Blue for winter, quarter three:
Tumblr media
Green for spring, quarter four:
Tumblr media
How?
I don't really know how much it is possible in other note-taking apps, but in Obisdian is kinda simple if you know a little about scripting. It uses just two plugins: Obsidian Dataview and Heatmap Calendar for Obsidian. The Dataview script used is this:
Tumblr media
In summary, the steps are:
Get all daily notes of this year (The year value is added via the file template);
Loop over all daily notes:
Get all completed tasks of note;
Calculate the percentage of completed tasks;
Push the day entry to the calendar data, with the correct color (The value "season-spring" is put by the template).
Render the Heatmap Calendar using the function provided by the plugin.
The source code of the daily note template is available on my vault template repository.

Day 22 (1/2)
Stone's Echo
Tumblr media
I left the village before dawn, restless. First, to Larend's salvage camp, after that, who knows. I can't roam this stretch of land forever. The number of problems for me to solve for the people here will only grow, exponentially, until everything dies.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Turning eastward, I returned to the ancient killing field I'd passed weeks prior, riding under the arms of Titans, choked with greenery. Burrowers patrolled, watching over sparse herds of Chargers.
Tumblr media
As the sun rose, I arrived at Larend's camp, smoke rising in a single scant plume behind a ramshackle wooden fence.
Tumblr media
As the orange light of morning fell across the camp, I handed the Shellwalker plating over to Larend and collected payment due. He was still in need of the parts after all. Not many hunters for hire were willing to cross these regions for shards alone, given the presence of Regalla's rebels and the Apex machines appearing across the lands. So, it wasn't just Cauldron Tau—Hephaestus has been at work in Cauldrons all across the lands, maybe the world. Brilliant. At least I've dealt with the rebels in the area now.
Tumblr media
On a circuitous route back west, I checked out some old military ruins overlooking the battle field.
Tumblr media
Unsurprisingly, the Oseram traders had picked through the place already, and there wasn't much in the way of salvage left behind. There were datapoints, though—scraps of military orders, personal memos, dying words. I tried to picture the valley below devoid of life, a burning pit of bots, rolling up toward the compound in a wave of black metal and bio-mist. Then I wished I hadn't.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Further on, back on the valley floor, I returned to the ruins I'd passed on my first ride west, where I'd saved a few delvers from a band of rebels. The delvers had evidently moved on, but now equipped with my ignighter, I'd be able to blast my way through the Firegleam deposits dotting the ruin's sealed walls.
I did just that, though the crystals burned quick and hot, and I couldn't get away in time to avoid the barrage of stones that followed detonation. Barely missed my dumb skull. I have to be more careful.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Inside, my Focus picked up an artefact behind a locked door across a broken walkway. It was a projector of some kind; powerful, packed with visual data, but not much else. Curious, I engineered a way across.
With a little more blasting, I found a datapoint with the code for the locked door, and an empty power cell to bring the mechanism back to life. Once charged, I couldn't walk the cell across the flooded portion of the room—the ensuing electric blast rattled my bones. The years had made the machine volatile, and I needed to drag it across on top of a handy crate to keep it out of the damp.
Tumblr media
Entering the code and opening the door, I was able to examine the ornament more closely. Projections of bright yellow leaves emanated from the sphere, powered by an internal source across the intervening centuries. Impressive, but I have no idea what greater machine it was made to slot into. Still, all that whirs is of value to the Oseram. I might find a good price for it or, better yet, find out its true function and return it to service.
I took the sphere with me when I left, tying it to my mount.
Tumblr media
I passed back through the battle field, now heading west. I scanned the rebel camps I'd cleared when I first crossed the border, checking for any sign of resumed activity. Nothing. With my efforts, I've managed to drive the rebels out of No Man's Land and most of Utaru lands too. Not bad, but I have a feeling their true might is hidden across the mountains in Tenakth territory.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Crossing back into Utaru lands, I headed north toward Plainsong, wanting to check that Yef and the other Eclipse prisoners had made it back home safely.
On the way, I spotted large Utaru structures in an uncultivated area—a village lost to the wilds in the aggression of new machines. Skydrifters patrolled the village skies, including two Apex variants. I figured I could do the Utaru a favour and clear out the pests, though I mainly wanted to study Hephaestus' new experiments.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The black-armoured Skydrifters were stocked with acid canisters in place of their usual shock coils. An acid arrow to each on the first; spear strike, then hardpoint arrows to the corroded armour. I kept the other Skydrifters off me with coil detonations and my Ropecaster.
Once the first was down, I picked away at the final two machines, keeping away from their flaming tail whips and waves of long-range, little mines with my Pullcaster, latching onto the old village structures. My Spikethrower came in useful too.
Finally downed them all, the herd of Fanghorns long since spooked off into a nearby copse. Good haul, and good data scraped from Hephaestus' machines. Hopefully Gaia can make use of it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The village altar, tilted, the floor rumpled by up-shooting grasses breaking through the weave. It must have been even more beautiful when inhabited. I hope the Utaru can return here someday.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I rode the short way remaining, making it to Plainsong in the afternoon. Things are seeming a lot calmer now with the nearby rebels driven out and the forces of Hephaestus stopped at their nearest source, if not entirely.
Tumblr media
Working the fields, I found Emboh. He told me that Jaxx had returned a couple of days prior with a Tenakth youth in tow, and thanked me for searching for his friend. It was good to hear that the Chorus had allowed Korreh to stay in Plainsong, but by the look of the dead, blighted crops Emboh was attempting to revive, the city might not be a safe place for the youth much longer.
Tumblr media
Sure enough, I found Jaxx and Korreh near the city entrance. Korreh had passed the days since his arrival learning to play an Utaru instrument, similar to that carried by Kalae on her pilgrimage. The music was beautiful—deep, earthy, reedy drones, dry winds and deep rumbles. He was utterly transfixed on the music, and Jaxx seemed proud of how quickly he'd adjusted to his new life. I only hope it'll be a long one and that, someday, the Tenakth might learn to value their infirm enough to let him feel the air of his clanlands again.
On my way through, I dropped my Utaru garb off with Gana for a fresh coat of dye, choosing more muted colours suited to desert camouflage. Whether news comes from Gaia or not, I need to head west to seek out the rest of Regalla's rebels and unravel Sylens' mysterious plot before he can do any more damage to the people of these lands.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I found Yef with a group of fellow former slaves sitting by Daen's kitchen. Yef had taken the lead, first in the way back home, and now in the care of his injured people. I could tell he was restless, meant more for a life of exploration and daring feats than tribal rites and bed rest, but life in Eclipse clutches had shaken him, and he was glad now just to breathe and to tend to the scars of body and mind left on their captives.
I shared a meal with the ex-captives, offering as clear answers as they would understand about the Eclipse and their motives, for those who wanted to know. For most, it was enough to know that they were Carja and came to these lands to do as Carja have always done. I didn't press my point.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
At the altar, I found Bree. He was planting Kalae's seeds in a basket to sit amongst the other offerings. She was never permitted the chance to speak on this stage as part of the Chorus, and instead would watch from behind, silent with the rest of the blooms of the dead, but it was not all despair. Despite Bree's rage at the corruption that gripped the Chorus, he had continued spreading Kalae's ideas, along with the truth of Kel's shortsighted brutality.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A few more hours spent in the golden light of evening, waiting for Gana's work to be done. One of the Utaru waved me over and offered to paint my face in the style of a Thresher, a symbol of strength and perseverance. Why not?
Tumblr media
I need to move on. With the rebels driven out and the flow of Hephaestus' machines stemmed, the Utaru's most pressing problem is starvation. Only repairing Gaia will resolve it. West next, to get to the bottom of Sylens' plans. Until Gaia calls me to action, I'll do what I've always done best: right wrongs, and kill killers.

Tumblr media
Medical PTSD be like...
Yeah, I'm still trying pretty hard not to beat myself up too much over a "bad' day yesterday.
Tumblr media
With the 24-hour graph at the bottom. Those single red dots over to the far right were recalibration readings, because this sensor was actually running a little low before that. (Partial explanation for the red supposed hypoglycemia line while I was asleep. Found out that xDrip+'s alarms are very effective at waking me up! 😒)
What happened there? An awful lot of pasta, plus some misestimation of how much insulin it needed to cover it. Then some borderline "rage bolusing" as the numbers kept climbing.
That really is not a bad day at all by a lot of other T1 standards. The usual professional goal to aim for is 70% time in range or more. That 24-hour prriod still exceeded that. But, being wound too tight? Mine has been averaging around 99%, with mostly the occasional mild brief high.
With some backup, my pancreas is apparently still squeezing out a tiny amount of its own insulin in response to food--which probably helps too even if it's not so predictable. Those final few beta cells may well have been on strike last night. ¯\_(��)_/¯
Tumblr media
The past week visualized. Where the white line is median levels, the more solid blue is the range it's stayed in 75% of the time. The lower dips during my night owl "overnight" are mostly from lying on the sensor funny, which is a very common way of getting false lows that bounce right back up after you move. (The other part of the equation with that red line earlier. I lay in a bad position for hours straight.)
Anyway, the more transparent blue is an outlier and should not be counted--or so I keep telling myself. That was HEAVILY affected by last night's pasta oopsie.
Guess I'm not actually doing too bad when that's the highest I've gone under my own power over the past several years since I got a CGM.
(They have done at least that bad with the IV glucose a couple of times during procedures, but I had fuck all control over that. What with being knocked out unconscious, and also a couple of hospital floors away from my insulin at the time.)
I do try to keep this in mind, and also take glucose readings as data points to learn from rather than hanging personal value judgments on them. [Strictly rhetorical] Lord, do I try. It ain't always easy, and it really doesn't help when you're feeling physically hungover from a rollercoaster. That can make it easier for some unhelpful mental scripts to start up.

Space, Mind, and Void: Getting to Know Your Neighbors
Let's talk more about Space for a moment. (Can you tell I'm a little fixated on this Aspect right now?) Space is not just the Aspect of creation, visual arts, and literal space. It's also represented by the classical element of Water. (There are people out there who will tell you that Space is actually Earth, and Blood is Water. These people are wrong.) Space is "concerned with the big picture," sure, but what does that really mean? Strap in, because we're going to get a little bit ~conceptual.~ This Aspect is vast, essentially containing everything that is.
Tumblr media
If we look at its neighbors, Mind and Void, we can understand Space as their intersection. The universe is not a "conscious" entity in a way we as humans can relate to. After all, it is a frog. If you take the instinct of self-propagation and expand it out into a literal universe-sized organism, its methods of attaining that feat would look a lot like conscious choices from someone on our level of complexity, wouldn't they? Ask yourself this: does a person consciously tell their bodies to produce new cells? What about the reproductive cells responsible for new life? There are forces within the universe that have their own desires—and the players themselves are invaluable, as their cooperation and success provide the only way that a universe can propagate—but the Genesis Frog simply is.
The Genesis Frog "contains every single instance of the universe that is within him," which naturally includes every choice one could make. Unlike Mind, however, Space itself is largely unconcerned with causality. It is merely the stage upon which the play is set. So, Space and Mind aren't the same thing. Why, then, are they neighbors? Put simply, the domain of Mind is not restricted to the choices one makes. Mind is what allows us to conceive. It's what allows me to find patterns and relationships in Homestuck's cosmology and Classpect system, just as it allows you to come up with your own interpretations of the same. Concepts, ideas, philosophies—these belong to Mind. The intersection of Space and Mind is, quite literally, the galaxy brain meme. Space provides the backdrop, but Mind invites you to imagine, to engage with possibilities as limitless as the universe itself. Mind brings you to a million crossroads and asks one simple question:
What will you do?
Let's take a look at our neighbor on the other side: Void. This Aspect is also characterized by its breadth. Much like a dark and impenetrable ocean, those who flirt with the Void without a proper appreciation for its nature may find themselves sinking helplessly below the surface. A Hero of Space may have difficulty teasing out their purpose in the game, chewing on the grand mythology their Land offers them free of charge. Nevertheless, the writing is often already on the wall. A Hero of Void, however, will find that their purpose has been translated through dozens of foreign tongues, with plenty of key information lost to time—or purposefully redacted. The result is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma, pocked with uncertainty and doubt. Whereas Mind encourages its players to parse through a vast array of known options to find a way forward, Void demands that its players conceive the inconceivable, creating something from nothing through methods best described as arcane.
There are two kinds of people in this world.
1. Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data
Space and Void both share a profound connection to Water, and they both possess a certain vastness that can only be truly understood through experience. These are both true of Mind as well, though Mind's connection to Water is much more abstract. (Appropriate, considering Mind sits above the Aspect Wheel's horizon, in the World of Ideas, while Void sits below, in the World of Matter.) Yet, they all deal with a theme I've mentioned several times now: conception. Birth. The new replacing the old. Space and Void both conjure up a sense of creation that's almost miraculous in nature. To create a whole universe, even for the most powerful Space player, is still incredibly impressive. To create something from nothing—whether that "something" is a physical object, an idea, or a secret third thing—is no less astonishing. A Mind player can synthesize information, make inferences based on what they know, and use that understanding to chart causality. All of this, however, requires prior information to work from. A Void player is capable of seeing the unseen, understanding what cannot be understood, and acting based upon that. They flirt with paradox and fuck the ineffable. Our familiar celestial bodies are the source of much inspiration, and we pay homage to them in so much of our art. Yet, like silence to a song, Space is defined not just by the stars themselves, but by the void between stars, and it is in these dark waters that Space and Void become one.
Come, friends. Let us bask in the now, in what is. Let what must be remain in the fiery bosom of Time. Breathe, and feel the universe breathe with you. Allow your conception of yourself, of your planet, of each cell in your body to shrink as you inhale, to expand as you exhale, until the microcosm and the macrocosm are utterly in sync. Visualize every physical and conceptual boundary you can think of, and allow them to dissolve. Do the same with those you can't. Allow me to ask you one simple question:
Have you ever rotated a tesseract in your mind?

My stupid guide to getting the stupid list of people YOU FOLLOW on tumblr
if tumblr has some way fo getting a list of usernames and urls of blogs you follow i don't know of it, if theres some script i don't know it, if theres anything. LET ME KNOW. but since i dont think there is welcome to my bruteforce method of getting a list of people you follow.
I am not a coder, i don't know how to do this with a program, and i dont know of any program that does it, no programmer thats going to or anything so im bruteforcing this in perhaps a stupid way but it works
go to your https://www.tumblr.com/following page
its just this same link, it takes you to the list of everyone you follow Then you need to load EVERY FOLLOWER by scrolling ALLL THE WAY DOWN the list, i have 2000 blogs i follow but ti doesnt take long for me to get to the end, yes you have to do this.
Tumblr media
rightclick and select inspect
a box will come up, this might be scary for non techy people, don't worry were just looking at the code underneath the site, nothing you change will be permanent. dont mess around here unless you know kinda what youre doing, but dont be scared for what were gonna do.
there are several tabs to this new window, we want to be in the inspector tab, and when you mouse over the text in here you can notice that it flashes certain parts of tumblr. these different lines all pertain to certain spots of the webpage so you can see what tumblr wants you to see.
we want to find where they put the followers
so were gonna hover over:
Tumblr media
and notice that the very center and only the center where you're followers are shown is lit up, that means inside this line somewhere is your follower list ((its not gonna be pretty)) use the little arrow on the side of this line and click it to expand the underlying code (this is really called nesting i think im not a coder, basically when there an arrow, theres stuff in there)
open the next arrow too (main something something)
keep hovering over the lines within this one and see which one lights up the center and only open that one, next one is "section something something" next class something something
now this might start to look familliar to you if you read all these "data-cell-id=" lines these are all the people you follows usernames,
Tumblr media
I'm sure someone who knows how to code would be able to grab this in a neat way and put it in a text document for us, but i dont know how to do that i just know i want it.
so what i do is:
right click the line whose arrow we just opened to be able to see this and select "copy, inner html" this line to be clear
Tumblr media
and i make a new notepad document(txt) on my computer, and i paste all that shit in there. and yes it looks like complete nonsense because everything is going everywhere with text you dont need or understand. dont worry about it. you still have all your list of following usernames in there.
now i used vs code(or visual studio code) (its a free program you can just get it if you want use google) and you dont even need to know any coding for this cleaning step. to clean this up, i open the document i created with all this shit in it in vs code and it has the capability to select every instance of a word or symbol or whatever and delete every single one, or replace it. it can also write with multiple cursors at the end of every line of text at the same time. so this way i can get rid of all this nonsense stuff to line up everyones usernames the way i'd like.
you can use google to figure out how to do this, or fuff about in vs code, but selecting a chunk and right clicking and choosing "change all occurrences" is what i used the most.
now if someone who actually codes could… help.. help me please.. dont let anyone else have to use this guide, there has to be a better way. thank you i love you

The Sky's the Limit: How Solar Drone Panel Inspection is Revolutionizing Renewable Energy
The renewable energy sector is booming, with solar power leading the charge towards a sustainable future. As solar farms proliferate, so does the need for efficient and effective maintenance. Enter solar drone panel inspection, a cutting-edge technology that is transforming how we monitor and maintain these crucial assets. No longer are we confined to laborious, time-consuming, and often hazardous manual inspections. Drones, equipped with advanced cameras and sensors, are taking to the skies, offering unparalleled efficiency, accuracy, and safety.
Historically, inspecting vast solar arrays involved teams of technicians meticulously examining each panel by hand. This process was not only incredibly slow but also fraught with risks, especially on large-scale utility farms or rooftop installations. The sheer scale of modern solar projects makes traditional methods impractical and economically unfeasible for regular maintenance. This is where solar drone panel inspection shines, offering a solution that scales seamlessly with the growing size of solar installations.
The Power of Precision: What Drones See That We Don't
At the heart of effective solar drone panel inspection lies the sophisticated payload these unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) carry. High-resolution RGB cameras capture visual data, revealing physical damage like cracks, shattered glass, or accumulation of dirt and debris. This visual evidence is crucial for identifying obvious defects that can impede a panel's performance.
However, the real game-changer is the integration of thermal imaging cameras. These infrared sensors detect subtle temperature variations across the solar panels. Hotspots, often invisible to the naked eye, are critical indicators of underlying issues such as defective cells, shading, bypass diode failures, or faulty electrical connections. By quickly identifying these thermal anomalies, maintenance teams can pinpoint problems early, often before they lead to significant power loss or irreversible damage. This proactive approach is fundamental to maximizing the lifespan and output of solar installations.
Beyond visual and thermal data, advanced solar drone panel inspection systems can also leverage multispectral cameras to assess vegetation encroachment or even detect potential induced degradation (PID) that might not show up as a hotspot initially. The ability to collect such a diverse range of data in a single flight provides a comprehensive health check of the entire solar farm.
Efficiency Unleashed: Time and Cost Savings
The most compelling argument for adopting solar drone panel inspection is the dramatic increase in efficiency and subsequent cost savings. A single drone can survey hundreds of acres in a fraction of the time it would take a ground crew. This speed translates directly into reduced labor costs and minimal disruption to energy production. Imagine inspecting a multi-megawatt solar farm in a matter of hours or days, rather than weeks. This expedited process ensures that issues are detected and addressed much faster, minimizing downtime and maximizing energy output.
Furthermore, the data collected by drones is often geo-tagged and timestamped, allowing for precise localization of defects. This eliminates the guesswork involved in manual inspections, enabling maintenance crews to go directly to the problematic panel, saving valuable time and resources. Automated reporting tools then generate comprehensive reports, detailing the identified anomalies and providing actionable insights for repair and maintenance.
Safety First: Mitigating Risks for Workers
Safety is paramount in any industrial setting, and solar farms are no exception. Manual inspections often involve working at heights, navigating uneven terrain, and operating in potentially hazardous conditions. Solar drone panel inspection significantly reduces these risks by eliminating the need for human personnel to physically access every panel. Drones can inspect hard-to-reach areas, such as rooftop installations or panels on steep inclines, without putting workers in harm's way. This not only protects employees but also reduces liability and insurance costs for solar farm operators.
The shift towards remote, drone-based inspections fosters a safer working environment, allowing human technicians to focus on higher-value tasks, such as diagnosing complex issues and performing targeted repairs, rather than routine, potentially dangerous, inspection work.
The Future is Automated: Predictive Maintenance and AI Integration
The evolution of solar drone panel inspection is deeply intertwined with advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). AI algorithms are increasingly being used to analyze the vast datasets collected by drones, automatically identifying patterns and anomalies that might be missed by human eyes. This includes the ability to differentiate between various types of defects, such as a dirty panel versus a faulty cell.
This automated analysis enables predictive maintenance, where potential issues are identified and addressed before they escalate into major problems. By tracking historical data and analyzing trends, AI can predict when a panel is likely to fail, allowing for proactive intervention and preventing costly unscheduled downtime. The integration of IoT (Internet of Things) further enhances this, allowing drones to communicate seamlessly with other monitoring systems within the solar farm, providing a holistic view of its health and performance.
As the solar industry continues its rapid expansion, solar drone panel inspection is not just a desirable tool, but an indispensable one. It's an investment in efficiency, accuracy, and safety that delivers a significant return on investment, ensuring that solar energy remains a reliable and cost-effective power source for generations to come. The sky is indeed the limit for this transformative technology in the renewable energy landscape.
