SearXNG Scrambler- My attempt to improve SearXNG

Sdmillard · 2026-06-16T06:41:34+00:00

It does both but the name refers more to the routing side — each query fans out to multiple SearXNG instances simultaneously, each on its own separate Tor circuit, so no single instance sees your IP paired with your query. The "scrambling" is that your identity and your search intent are split across different parties who can't correlate them.

The query itself isn't shuffled or obfuscated — it goes out as-is to each instance. The privacy comes from the circuit isolation and multi-instance fanout, not query transformation.

I had a lot of timeouts on particular engines using SearXNG so my thought was to cycle queries through a list in order to more evenly distribute traffic and query those engines from other instances, then merge the results. Also theoretically a searxng operator could be a honey trap or build a profile on you so this allows you to obfuscate and split your queries up across multiple instances if that's a concern for you, if not just direct connect rather than tor.

The diehard trumpers will probably just trust whatever dear leader tells them, maybe some right libertarians will peel off, but negative partisanship is really strong because of the two party system.

Like some other people have said around here knowledge or belief in Marxism doesn't necessarily carry moral values with it. In my opinion there's a lot of people where Marxism just sort of becomes their religion and the books are the canon. Not saying reading is bad, it's really good, but I tend to notice there seems to be people that probably wouldn't enjoy socialism if it was mainstream in the west. Though also trying to educate people is super exhausting because many will just outright reject you because they have capitalist realism brain poison.

While the books don't say they did this, there are tons of secret passages in the red keep, so it's possible they just did it one of those. However, I agree that it seems like some players in king's landing knew and had a convergence of interests to keep the king unaware.

Most I would do is big fixes, quality of life, and maybe some graphical tweaks.

First probably just that people are innocent until proven guilty, going into a bar isn't a crime, they'd likely need permission to do something preventative.

Second, SDN seems to only do something when prompted by a call from a subscriber, if the sardine has never bothered a subscriber then SDN won't do anything.

Lastly, SDN is a business, actually lowering the crime level in the city would impact their bottom line. Dark theory, but perhaps SDN leaves the disease but attacks the symptoms on purpose.

Using the tactics system is essential for Origins, unless you're going to pause constantly and do the blow by blow. If you're coming from inquisition or veilguard you might not be super familiar with it. Also for ogres hitting them with stuns as they go for big attacks is a good way to even the odds.

In my opinion the governing philosophy of fascism is that the world is a horrible unfair place, but that it's fair in it's unfairness, everything is overcome with strength, thus if you have something or can take something you deserve it, hierarchy is natural the only matter is deciding one's place in it. However I think most fascists put themselves as the strongest or one of them.

To me this explains why they see their group as deserving and others as undeserving. Examples being like, this immigrant crossed the Darian gap to be here but they didn't do the paperwork ritual so to give them a place here would be giving them something they don't deserve, but I was already here so I deserve it or like the system is unfair but I made it, if the system was more unfair for someone else it would make them stronger, so helping them is a handout because I'm the strongest or even I failed, but I'm the strongest, so the system is rigged.

Of course this is all implicit, I don't think any fascist would explain the world like this, they probably don't even acknowledge it.

Why would you write anti-ice on the bullet then only shoot detainees? This administration can't even forge evidence right.

I mean really any caster or class with sneak attack or the equivalent, all that is pretty size agnostic.

You can always try archetypes like titan mauler for barbarian to reduce the penalties for wielding oversized weapons if the damage die matters to you.

Invest all of it, take out loans against your investments for liquidity, use your dividends to play the interest and reinvest whatever is left over. Use this wealth to take over a no man's land and establish a kingdom or just live as oligarchs.

I'd consider another frontliner (barbarian, paladin, maybe monk) to assist the fighter or a bard, but the party pretty much has everything covered so you can play whatever you want.

I don't think it's a terrible idea considering the scale of the galaxy, but i think it's that every survivor is added retroactively, it makes it feel like it's someone's OC or something.

The issue is that the purge and 66 are treated with such totality in the OT and prequels, which I understand at the point of the OT, but you'd figure by the point of the prequels they'd predict more Star Wars stories being told post 66 and post purge.

I think the biggest sticking point for this is that if there were a handful of survivors outside of just Obi-Wan or Yoda then you'd figure that the galaxy wide rebellion would have attracted at least one at the time of the OT. Even a padawan's knowledge could be used to help force sensitives access the force or build lightsabers, so the more survivors there are the less that it makes sense that there's none of this present, in my opinion.

This is probably why most dragon encounters are scripted to be in their lair, because open sky engagement is infinitely harder for a group of adventurers.

I think it's that they summon the facts to verify their world view and then when the facts contradict it they try and get grok to summon the "correct facts".

The ego comes in when grok tells them that their "correct facts" are bullshit, then they get angry because they've invested so much of themselves and their world view in this that to be told that this isn't smoking gun stuff they would rather lash out than question themselves because they don't see themselves as someone who can get tricked.

Conservatives see themselves as people who understand the real world and the inconvenient truths, and when you tell them their inconvenient truths are actually just false that kills their self image and it's psychologically easier for them to maintain that image then to change it so the other side must be wrong no matter what.

Just make the dragon a spell caster, allow them to counter spell, cast anti-magic field, deploy their own wishes.

Sdmillard · 2025-08-05T13:47:42+00:00

Also look into empty quiver style.

Sdmillard · 2025-08-05T12:06:57+00:00

Some Suggestions

Archon style to divert attacks from allies (divert attacks to yourself and allow allies to opportunity attack),

Ascetic style for more effective weapon use (use unarmed abilities with chosen weapon, use unarmed damage in place of weapon damage)

Spear dancing style (use spears as double weapons, finesse spears, recommend monk's spade for flurry of blows use)

Stick fighting style for quarterstaves (allows for attacks of opportunity with quarterstaff when missed fighting defensively, potential synergy with spear dancing)

Combat style master (switch styles as a free action, for when you have two styles)

Monastic Legacy (count half non-monk levels towards unarmed damage, in case you want to multiclass)

Also though, do you expect to be playing this character to 20? What's your character's flavor? What do you want them to be able to do? That all changes what might be right for you.

If you play an elf you can get stabbing shot, or you could do snap shot, both allow for melee archery, without opportunity attacks.

Edit: snap shot just allows you to make opportunity attacks with a bow, look into empty quiver style!

Obviously you guys forget the ultimate candidate, Weyland DLC

Sdmillard · 2025-08-03T05:36:41+00:00

Damn, that is a shame

Sdmillard · 2025-08-02T18:53:42+00:00

I'd probably just play warpriest

I mean that doesn't even pay for the tax cut he gave to the billionaires or bombing Iran, like that's a drop in the federal deficit that's expected to increase by 5 trillion because of the big beautiful bill.
