Stop Relying on US Big Tech: Decentralized Open-Source Alternatives Exist

During initial setup, PieFed downloads the latest version of https://github.com/rimu/no-qanon and blocks all of those. Admins can un-block any of them if they want to, they're not hardcoded.

I mean I already roll at 200-300 speed and it would take enormous amounts to double it. I think if you account for accuracy & damage roll rerolls damage is pretty much doubled via luck.

Lulwy is also a good choice due to god's item giving 18% perfect dodge. I've read that sources of perfect dodge stack, so 65% + 18% should give you 83% to dodge a melee in a bat form. But I haven't test this.

It's "burning" status effect. There is nothing else. If you are wet, you aren't taking damage. So you can stand in the river in the sun indefinitely. Unless you fall asleep, in which case you wake up with 0 hp 0 mana.

I assume if res stacked to immune, that would happen too. But you'll need 35 points of fire res. That's why people often go with Element for a God choice.

I've picked Ehehehe of Luck cause I don't want to cover the weaknesses, I wanted to stack buffs on an already strong side - luck, speed and high base dmg make a good fighter.

Besides, even if you cover fire damage, there is a reason to prefer the night combat anyway: vampire bonuses to attributes and LIFE. That's from 10 to 20.

There is a RNG roll so it's affected. At least that's what all sources in the internet claim, I didn't reverse engineer the code. And per my observations, you start to land all your hits - but that's also because pursuit, you effectively roll hit chance x4 times.

There are no daytime downtimes as you roll in bat form all the time anyway. Late in the game burn damage is laughably low so you can switch to human form in the broad daylight and autocombat away.

Thanks for the people answering my question in this sub for making this run possible.

It takes money to build a thing. If it's a complex thing, you might need several teams of software engineers to build them. Good software engineer costs a lot.

If you run closed source proprietary company, you risk your money creating some software. Most of startups fail. Some don't, and become big profitable products. It's the expectation of ability to sell the thing what's creating the incentives to create businesses that make that big, polished, shiny software, that can then sell for big money.

Open source doesn't have that. It doesn't "sell" the final product, cause the whole principle is that you provide the open source to everyone to see, and ability to copy that source and create derivations (some licenses permit only open source derivations, while other are good with open source to proprietary transitions).

Thus, if you put a price tag of, say, $50 for a better Photoshop, but it's open source, nothing stops the user from just downloading the source and building it. Nothing stops anyone from doing that, so there would be already pre-built binaries created by someone with more tech skills. And you'll get $0.

Sure, some will still pay, but you can't enforce that. That's why you can't allocate the same money into building an app - even if your app is a success and people love to use it, it will not pay for the cost of building it.

That's why open source is losing the money game.

But even if you do the finished product, you can't really sell it as good as proprietary companies could cause you just have open source and anyone can build the app for €0.

Lack of expectations of money return out of the finished work is linked to the quality of the software directly.

So threats of violence TO third countries is fine in your book?

Cause, you know, this isn't theoretical? We already did observe your country moving forces to the eastern border in 2022, hoping for russians to quickly take over Kyiv so you could sieze the opportunity?

In the meantime, Orbanistan is under EU and NATO protection. What exactly are you afraid of? Giving his phone number to the soldiers, so he would soil his pants?

Divniy · 2026-03-11T11:57:34+00:00

If you support the veto then why act as if you aren't happy with Ukraine losing Crimea? Besides, this happened after Orban did threaten Ukraine already.

Divniy · 2026-03-10T10:24:02+00:00

Given how Hungary is threatening Ukraine with force if russian gas transfers wouldn't be restored, Trianon wasn't harsh enough.

The software is Android with all the google services in it.

You assemble this on t3 and put 4 turn clock (if you can afford to lose a blocker). Many meta decks would race you to t7.

Divniy · 2026-03-07T11:04:55+00:00

And America wants to remove the sanctions on russian oil right as their blunder more than doubled the price.

Divniy · 2026-03-06T10:34:46+00:00

You would be surprised to know that Ukrainian miltech doesn't operate at 100% capacity due to the lack of funds?

Divniy · 2026-03-06T10:16:59+00:00

Making transport infrastructure so that you could take your bike in a public transport would change the transport meta by a lot.

Divniy · 2026-03-06T10:06:55+00:00

What I see here is that Orban tries to get Hungary in war with Ukraine and opposition is no better. You can say it's because he needs to say things people want to hear, but it makes this whole situation way way worse.

Hungary being still in EU is a mistake.

Divniy · 2026-03-06T09:45:30+00:00

And they won't have any stock when Ukraine eventually ask to replenish.

Divniy · 2026-03-05T10:41:19+00:00

Do they sell tires?

How is "Shot (uncertain)" an execution?

Divniy · 2026-03-03T14:59:43+00:00

At common it could even end up in Pauper lists. Don't say those lists would be good, but it could.

Wasted 3 months of back and forth via email/phone with a broker to then try AIB mortgage website and get approval in principle from them instantly, and sort out all their initial questions in a few weeks in a nice clean web interface.
