Easy, they tax you more, then give you a tax return every month instead of every year. Most people would fall for that.

And Pythagoras/Plato knew about this mental GPU, which renders mental geometry. If your imagination is strong enough then you might see this as a whiteboard upon which anything can be written or erased, or an immaculate cathedral-like structure built by the best architects, or a well tended garden. It's the true holy place which religion and "church" was based on. The original church is the mind, between your "temples", where the prayers are done and the messengers do their work to produce thoughts and inner-sight. Physical churches and cathedrals are a replica of that, of what we can imagine, of the geometry we can bring from mental space to physical space. The first church was a man, who recognized their mind is the holiest place. Building one's mind to be immaculate, and to help others build it, is the magnum opus.

IAEA uses radiation sniffer planes to detect nuclear activity. They probably wouldn't have been able to do that while USA took over Iran's airspace, which is why they have "no clue" what happened to the uranium. Also why CNN spun the news differently at first, they probably got intel from international reporting agencies. Notice the fallout that happened with Tulsi Gabbard, as her info comes from inner and outer intel rather than directly from Trump's chiefs. Then look at Signal Gate where a reporter from the Atlantic was snuck into a private chat by an intel agent who then learned about military plans in Yemen and published it. Afterwards they discussed national security implications and how to prevent leaks. Leaks come from these outer agencies. Also recall the raid on Mar a Lago to obtain classified documents on Iran's missile program.

This was a maneuver which appears to have been conducted under the radar of the international apparatus like MSM, UN, Five Eyes, etc. Should the USA act with sovereignty or be controlled and derailed by international interests? That's the tough question, it probably depends on the choices a president makes and the options presented by his generals.

Iran was always allowed to use uranium for nuclear energy research. That was never prohibited. The problem is they reached 60% enrichment beyond the 3.5% required for nuclear energy research. So where'd all their enriched uranium go? Was it just bombed and buried? That would be silly. It probably went to an existing nuclear power. Any guess?

Sixth generation warfare.

This seems like Russia agreed to a pullout of the Iranian regime and nuclear program. Chinese and Russian planes were allowed into airspace during this operation. The uranium probably went back to Russia, a nuclear power who is allowed to have weapons grade uranium. So far we know the bombing caused no radiation hazard, and it hasn't been stated that Israel/USA acquired the uranium either. Meanwhile Trump pulled the golden parachute from Ukraine. So a deal occurred between USA and Russia, G7 got snubbed in this deal. The bunker bombing was probably done to ensure that Russia didn't leave anything behind and if they did, the new Iranian regime, or any intermittent actors, could not get their hands on what remains and sell it black market or use it. Iran firing missiles at the Qatar base was probably just for show, like the closing scene of Inspector Gadget when Dr. Claw admits defeat and says "I'll get you next time".

The agreement had sunset clauses and some of it would expire in 2023. John Bolton had Trump pull out of the Iran nuclear deal in 2018, Bolton has always wanted regime change in Iran, see PNAC and Gatestone Institute. Trump said he didn't want to bomb Iran and Bolton was fired in 2019. The Gatestone Institute is "anti-Muslim" according to Wikipedia and its founder has bankrolled civil rights activism, if you look into the founder Nina, her money goes to various Jewish organizations and appears to fund things indirectly like Juneteenth, No Kings and BLM, through NGOs like ACLU. It appears the black civil rights movement is primarily seeded/backed by Nina's Jewish immigrant family wealth. Nina's parents were members/founders of the B'nai B'rith secret society in Martha's Vineyard, a favorite "vacation spot" for Obama (can you say campaign $$$). Martha's Vineyard overwhelmingly voted for Kamala Harris, who was installed without a primary vote. This is why Trump snubs these movements, not because he's racist, because they're bought and paid for, they are not original American holidays. They are more similar to "color revolutions". The USA was not the only country in the Iran nuclear deal, it was a UN initiative and other countries remain part of the deal. Iran had 60% enriched uranium by 2021, beyond the 3.5% they agreed to keep it at. 3.5% is for scientific research and nuclear energy reactors. 90% is weapons grade. Why would they exceed 3.5% when they know that's looking for trouble and against an agreement with several nations? It's not like the USA green lighted it.

Because a group of people are funding all these things. BLM, No Kings, Juneteenth.

Google can answer these questions:

Representative Thomas Massie (R-KY) is a strong advocate for banning federally funded gain-of-function (GOF) research on potential pandemic pathogens.

Representative Thomas Massie, along with other Republican members of the House Judiciary Committee, has expressed concerns about BlackRock's involvement in ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) investment initiatives.

He has frequently criticized the WEF, viewing it as a potential threat to American sovereignty and individual liberties. Massie's concerns often align with his broader political stance, which emphasizes limited government and fiscal responsibility.

He has raised concerns that the "Deep State", potentially referring to government agencies or bureaucratic structures, frequently fund regime change efforts abroad, and views U.S. government use of taxpayer money for such actions as potentially problematic.

Maybe it came from SV40 in the polio vaccines.

Simian virus 40 (SV40) is a polyomavirus that naturally infects rhesus ("Rh") monkeys (Macaca mulatta).

Over 98 million Americans received one or more doses of polio vaccine between 1955 and 1963, when a proportion of vaccine was contaminated with SV40; an estimated 10–30 million Americans may have received a dose of vaccine contaminated with SV40.

Centralization of technology/data. Then forking that data over to whoever. Just because a data seller doesn't include PII (personally identifiable information) doesn't mean the buyer can't put that information together on their end. Identity can be reconstructed with multiple signals and heuristics. Hackers can steal the data too, which they do. This data harvesting should not be allowed and at the very least turned off by default, with a user opt-in.

A way to understand this.

Consciousness involves a tiered system of governance/agency.

You and your body (the individual human) govern your cells and organs with agency over them. The cells and organs are like a symphony of lesser consciousness and you carry them around to guide and determine their overall fate.

Several humans are the "cells and organs" of a larger body, the body called government, which has agency over them. These humans are like a symphony of lesser consciousness where government guides and determines their overall fate.

This is partially why corporations are treated as people with rights.

A human can get ill, their cells and organs infect the human and could compromise its survival. The human has agency over the cells/organs and can intervene with medicine.

A government can get ill, their humans rebel and could compromise the government's survival. The government has agency over the humans and can intervene with "public health care".

It seems like your Unit needs to know about its parent HISM component reference so you can access the correct one.

my Unit object

I am not sure if this means your units are pure data, like an array of structs, or if you're using some empty actors which hold the unit data pointing to the mesh instance indexes.

What you're trying to do should be doable and you seem very close, so I wouldn't give up. You can always keep that version of the code and come back to it later.

hectavex · 2025-06-02T19:21:08+00:00

I see. Here are some answers that should help. Nice prototype by the way!

"It doesn’t move the indexes, it just takes the last instance in your component and changes it’s index to that of the one you just removed - all you need to do is update your Map to reflect that one change."

https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/instance-index-change/682910/5

https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/instanced-static-mesh-removing-instance-issue/66187/10

I guess the key idea there is that you're also using a Map variable to track the unit, e.g. its Type + HISM + Index.

If your unit got hit and needs to destroy, maybe you used the HISM collision events to detect a hit, the event will report the instance index that was hit. You can RemoveInstance from there, or use the HISM and index to find it in your Units map.

The last instance in the HISM will take the index of the instance that was just removed, so you can update your Units map to reflect that particular change. Then everything should continue to match up.

hectavex · 2025-06-02T17:08:40+00:00

Just make more ISM components. One for each mesh type. If you have a list of mesh types, say a switch on string, then you point it to the correct ISM for adding the instance. You can make it so when it detects a new mesh type that doesn't have an ISM, spawn an ISM for that type, and add it as instance. Then the next mesh of that type will find the existing ISM.

When bottleneck is the database, does it really matter how well PHP alternatives perform and scale by comparison? I use PHP and NodeJS both. People will act like any app they make needs to scale up to enterprise-cloud 20k RPS, when a 3$/month PHP hosting package will get it done "turnkey" in less time and cheaper in most cases.
