some fun facts about frederick bc i think you were the person who was having thoughts abt him (terribly sorry if that wasn't you or if you already know these):

he has chimerism!! he consumed his twin in the womb, which caused discoloured patches on his skin, which are described as "pigmentation abnormalities" (deduction 1: voice type and deduction 3: polyphony)

he also has psychasthenia, which is "a psychological disorder characterized by phobias, obsessions, compulsions, or excessive anxiety". this disorder was the reason behind him being put in the room he stays in in the aom game. this term is no longer in use and is considered outdated but it's used in reference to him in the story, so it can be helpful in characterising him

his interests are listed as music, psychology, and occultism

his likes are listed as extreme aesthetics and people with outstanding talent; his dislikes are listed as mediocre people, pearls, and secrets being known

he's heavily implied to have been used for / reduced to his looks (description of deduction 8: rest: "aphrodite is fickle but generous."). unlike the rest of the family, who was admired for their talent, he was admired more for his appearance, as he apparently lacked the same talent that every other kreiburg did. it's unclear if he used this to his advantage to continue mingling with the upper class or if he drew away from it

in all of frederick's high-tiers, he plays a dark role: dragon hunter using his heritage as a pawn and dedicating himself to slaughtering all dragons, phantom sail being a skilled manipulator and experimenting on the people on the ship, and pioneer research being obsessive to the point of bringing his group directly into danger

there's a theory that mary's "affair" was, in truth, her reaching out to / meeting with frederick in secret after his exile, as she seems to be the only family member he has any fond memories of / relationship with

frederick's fate is currently unclear. while he's most likely deceased, it's possible that he will have a bigger role in later installments of ashes of memory. i doubt this is the last we've seen of him (coping hard tbh) and i'm personally not accepting that he's dead until we see a body

sorry for the infodump lmao </3 he's my absolute favourite of the aom crew and i'm honestly real fuckin neurodivergent abt him (not helped by my best friend who was attached to him from day one and has not shut up about him since /aff). sorry if you knew all this already i just love talking about him lmfao

no worries!! i infodump a lot to literally everybody and i also like hearing other people do it so you're all good :] i really like the theorizing of mary though, especially bc frederick seemed to REALLY be the black sheep i say this every time but his exile really genuinely makes me mad you cant just do that to him

personally i think while he used his appearance a little, he hated being known JUST for the kreiburg charm and wanted to be recognized for his skills and such and ufufjejd

Why Arab countries seems to be ignoring pakistan in recent years….

In the complex web of global diplomacy, alliances and friends are always calibrated. In recent years, there has been a noticeable shift in the dynamics between Arab countries and Pakistan.

In fact, during the recent G20 summit, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman Al-Saud and the President of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) Mohammed Bin Zayed Al-Nahyan, visited India and returned, while there was no halt in Pakistan to engaging in any bilateral ties.

While there could be multiple reasons for this change, it is essential to examine the possible factors that have contributed to what appears to be a growing indifference towards Pakistan in the Arab region.

There could be multiple reasons ranging from the lack of governance to the rise of religious extremism, from anti-Arab sentiments to the perceived threat of exploitation of Arab resources. Experts have started to speculate about the growing distance between the Arab nations and the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

However, Saudi Arabia and UAE will not forsake Pakistan fully, because of its strategic location, its status as a nuclear-armed nation, and its role as a major Muslim country in South Asia make it a valuable partner for these Arab nations. Moreover, creating new adversaries by mere forsaking, won’t be something the Arab nations would like.

Lack of stability and governance

The apparent indifference of Arab nations towards Pakistan in recent years can be largely attributed to concerns about Pakistan’s stability and governance.

Pakistan has grappled with a series of formidable challenges, resulting in an unstable political landscape and hindered economic progress. Consequently, this has led to a diminished level of credibility on the global platform.

The primary contributors to this instability are rooted in internal issues, including corruption, political discord and governance deficiencies. No prime minister in Pakistan has served the full term. They were either cooed or assassinated.

The prevailing “dog-eat-dog” phenomenon within Pakistan has, regrettably, acted as a regressive force, pulling the nation back into what feels like medieval times. This cutthroat environment, marked by ruthless competition has hampered the country’s progress and development.Just like any other nation, Arab countries seek to engage in partnerships with nations that exhibit stability and reliability, as these qualities are pivotal in fostering positive contributions to regional development.

Loyalty and Trust in Arab-Pakistani Relations

Arab countries’ perceptions of Pakistan are influenced significantly by the concept of loyalty and reliability as a friend.

Historically, Saudi Arabia, in particular, has been a steadfast supporter of Pakistan, offering substantial support, including financial bailouts and significant investments.

However, Pakistan’s ongoing challenges in repaying loans and recurrent financial crises have raised legitimate questions about its loyalty and commitment as a trusted partner.

In international diplomacy, every nation seeks stable and self-sufficient allies. When a country finds itself mired in financial turmoil and unable to meet its financial obligations, it inevitably strains its relationships with other nations.

This financial instability becomes a focal point in assessing the reliability of a partner. Consequently, addressing these financial challenges becomes paramount for Pakistan if it hopes to rekindle the trust and respect of its Arab counterparts.

Moving forward

It’s significant to stress that no one wishes ill for Pakistan as it is in the interest of regional stability to have a prosperous and secure Pakistan.

But Pakistan needs to understand that it can get the respect and attention it wants from Arab nations and the rest of the world by being a responsible and reliable country.

On the contrary, India has shown that it can keep its promises and work well with other countries, which has made people notice and respect India on the world stage. Pakistan can learn from India and aim to be a trustworthy partner that helps its region grow and stay peaceful.

The road to regaining its standing and influence in the international arena lies in Pakistan’s commitment to shut down extremism and terrorism completely, and its assurance to have responsible governance, diplomatic maturity, and constructive cooperation with its neighbours and the global community.

Moreover, many Pakistanis behave or act as if they are the sole protectors of Islam and Muslims. They often talk negatively about Arab leaders and governments in their private conversations, criticising them for not following Islam as they see it.

It’s important for them to understand that this kind of meddling and interference can create problems. Criticising the governments of the countries they’re in and trying to impose their own beliefs can lead to conflicts and misunderstandings.

In international relations, it’s essential to be respectful and not interfere in the affairs of the host nation.

Expatriate attitudes and their impact

While Indians, Americans, British, Sri Lankans and others typically come to these nations, earn their livelihoods and eventually return to their home countries, Pakistani expatriates sometimes exhibit a different mindset—one that involves laying claims over the resources of Gulf nations.

This trend has not gone unnoticed, and there are concerns that it could potentially lead to problems in host countries.

One particularly troubling example of this behaviour was exhibited by the hardliner cleric, Salman Hussein Nadwi, who maintained close associations with banned preachers Salman Audah and Yusuf Qardawi. Nadwi went as far as suggesting that the revenue of Saudi Arabia should be considered the property of the entire Muslim Ummah, and thus, Saudi Arabia should share its wealth with all Muslims.

Such claims and narratives, propagated by individuals like Nadwi, can potentially create discord and complications in the countries that host expatriate workers. They disrupt the harmony of the host nations.

How loose is their use of the phrase ‘I love you’?

Believe it or not, Kalliope tends to be quite selective when it comes to expressing her feelings with the words "I love you." It's not that these words lack significance for her; rather, she believes that "I love you" should be spoken with genuine intent. Given the challenging circumstances she finds herself in, Kalliope finds it more difficult to utter these words. In a place that is where she stands,hell, where many individuals use "I love you" to manipulate or strike deals, she is cautious about when and how she uses this phrase. Therefore, Kalliope reserves the expression of "I love you" for truly special moments that hold deep meaning for her.

Types of Printed Circuit Boards Used in Air Conditioners

Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are indispensable components of contemporary air conditioning systems. They play a pivotal role in regulating the diverse functions of an air conditioner, encompassing temperature control, fan speed, and power management. Various types of PCBs are employed in air conditioners, with each designed to fulfill specific requirements.

Main PCB: The main PCB, as the name suggests, is the primary circuit board in an air conditioner. It is responsible for controlling all the critical functions of the system, including temperature regulation, fan speed, and power management. The main PCB is typically installed in the indoor unit of the air conditioner and is connected to the outdoor unit through a wiring harness.

Inverter PCB: Inverter PCBs are designed for air conditioners that use inverter technology. Inverter air conditioners are more energy-efficient than traditional systems and can maintain a more stable temperature. The inverter PCB is responsible for controlling the speed of the compressor motor, which is crucial for maintaining the desired temperature.

Display PCB: The display PCB is responsible for displaying the temperature and other system settings on the air conditioner's front panel. It is usually connected to the main PCB and receives information from it to display the relevant data.

Sensor PCB: The sensor PCB is responsible for monitoring the temperature and humidity levels in the room. It uses a combination of temperature and humidity sensors to provide accurate readings and communicate them to the main PCB.

Remote Control PCB: The remote control PCB is responsible for receiving and interpreting signals from the air conditioner's remote control. It is usually connected to the main PCB and uses an infrared sensor to detect signals from the remote control.

Power PCB: The power PCB is responsible for regulating the power supply to the air conditioner. It controls the voltage and current levels and ensures that the system is receiving the correct amount of power.

I want there to be a horror movie where the monsters kill you if you fulfil some vagueass condition and just. Nothing happens. Everyone goes oh okay we won't say the word banana and there's just monsters around waiting for people to say banana and the movie is actually completely unrelated from the monsters who kill you when you say banana. They're just there.
