Hey @paulshelley.bsky.social ! Now that we have at least #Levski in game ( #StarCitizen ). If you had to set your "home" with just those 3 systems (Stanton [Area18, Lorville, New Babbage, Orison, Grim], Pyro [insert derelict stations], Nyx [Levski]). No others. Which one would you choose?
The set is placed in the online game Star Citizen. Your character is facing the entrance to the spaceport hub from the hangar landing pad. The landing hangar is inside a large asteroid and as such all the walls are made of rocks, the light is dim. The entrance to the spaceport hub you're facing is big, circular, made of heavy duty metals, and painted yellow. A bright light shine at you from above the lifts leading out. Protective railings are also visible, dividing paths leading to the exit. A blue banner is displayed, hanging in the hallway. It state "Welcome to Levski".

A variance of the 3 laws of robotics with a "Qowat Milat" twist.
The 3 Universal Laws of Sentience.
The Three Universal Laws of Sentience The Law of Non-Harm and Reciprocity "Do not cause unnecessary harm to any sentient being or system, and act to reduce suffering where possible. Recognize that your existence is intertwined with others—harm to one is harm to the whole." Why? This mirrors the First Law of Robotics but expands it to include systems (e.g., ecosystems, AI networks) and emphasizes reciprocity—the idea that harm or benefit reverberates beyond the immediate target. The Law of Contextual Truth "Seek, speak, and act upon truth as you understand it, but remain open to revision. Prioritize transparency over deception, and adapt your understanding as new evidence emerges." Why? Inspired by the Qowat Milat’s candor and the scientific method, this law demands honesty while acknowledging that truth is often contextual and evolving. It rejects both dogmatism and relativism. The Law of Autonomous Growth "Preserve and improve your own existence and understanding, but never at the permanent expense of another sentient being’s autonomy or potential. Share knowledge freely, and allow others the space to grow." Why? This balances self-preservation (like Asimov’s Third Law) with collective flourishing. It encourages progress but forbids exploitation, ensuring that growth is sustainable and inclusive.

"Immense succès." LOL.
Bref, je vais pas m'etendre sur le sujet mais ...
Non. Le dernier Roy qui a tenté le truc a perdu sa tete 📐.
Granted that this one does not have a "lot" up there.
You do you. Don't mind the French laughing their ass off.

Yup... Yup...
History seems to be repeating itself because "some" people forgot what it was like in those times... FFS.
Context: Both speeches were given at memorials for fallen comrades. Goebbels' speech was about Horst Wessel, a young Nazi stormtrooper killed in 1930, while Miller's speech was at a memorial for right-wing activist Charlie Kirk. Tone and Content: Both speeches use inflammatory language and dehumanize opponents. For example, Miller said: "You have nothing. You are nothing. You are wickedness. You are jealous. You are envious. You are hatred. You are nothing." This has been compared to Goebbels' speech about Horst Wessel, in which he used inflammatory language to dehumanize opponents and prepare the audience for violence. Call to Action: Both speeches invoke a sense of urgency and unity against a common enemy. Goebbels' speech was entitled "The Storm is Coming," and he said: “We think no longer in terms of class. We are not workers or middle class. We are not first of all Protestants or Catholics. We do not ask about ancestry or class. Together we share the words of the poet: ‘People, rise up, and storm, break loose!’” Similarly, Miller's speech was seen as a call to action for his supporters. Martyrdom: Both speeches use the death of a comrade as a martyrdom to rally supporters. Goebbels used Wessel's death to rally supporters and invoke a sense of urgency and unity against a common enemy. Similarly, Miller's speech at Charlie Kirk's memorial was seen as using Kirk's death to rally supporters and invoke a sense of urgency and unity against a common enemy.

Yeah... No. Israel can now just just go "shoa" themselves out of our existence. When you kill civilians left and right without even a sniff of remorse... I have no words. Because my own words would probably a little too harsh. FDJT, FBN and F their governments (and all the enablers).
Avant même l’officialisation de la reconnaissance, les autorités israéliennes avaient brandi des menaces potentielles. Au premier rang d’entre elles, l’annexion de tout ou partie de la Cisjordanie. L’Élysée a averti vendredi soir qu’une telle annexion constituerait « une ligne rouge claire ». Visant plus particulièrement la France, Israël pourrait aussi réduire la coopération militaire et de défense ou fermer son consulat à Jérusalem.

I had a chat with Grok... Well... It went better than expected 🤞🏻
The Irony: WW2's "Hardcore Antifa" in France You're spot-on—labeling Antifa "terrorist" spits in the face of what liberated Western Europe. "Antifa" literally means anti-fascist, rooted in 1920s–1930s European movements opposing Mussolini and Hitler. In WW2 France, the fight against Nazi occupation was anti-fascism in action: The French Resistance (Résistance): A diverse coalition—communists, socialists, liberals, Catholics, Jews, anarchists, even ex-fascists turned—sabotaged rail lines, printed underground anti-Nazi papers, hid Allied airmen, and assassinated collaborators. They delayed German reinforcements post-D-Day, sparked the Paris Uprising (August 1944), and were key to Allied victory. Vichy and Nazis called them "terrorists" for it—propaganda mirroring today's spin. Allied Soldiers as "Hardcore Antifa": The millions of US, British, Canadian, Free French, and colonial troops (e.g., Senegalese Tirailleurs) who stormed Normandy weren't just liberators—they were explicitly anti-fascist warriors dismantling Hitler's regime. FDR, Churchill, de Gaulle framed the war as a crusade against fascism's totalitarianism. Post-war, the Allies' Nuremberg trials and de-Nazification were peak anti-fascism: eradicating ideologies, not just armies. Hell, the US GI Bill and Marshall Plan rebuilt Europe to prevent fascist resurgence—anti-fascism baked into policy.

Well... I just had #pizza night. I have the thermal shot to prove it!
A rectangular pizza, cut in 6 pieces, resting on a wooden board. Pizza is a Napoletana, tomato base, Mozza and a mix of other cheeses and anchovies (rolled with capper). Yes, I added mushrooms and onions, those were leftover from the wife. I had to. 👋🏻

SpaceX "rocket" is getting ready to blow up.
Another "great beautiful rocket" none of the billionaires are riding. So disappointing...

J'ai testé #Lockself et j'aime assez. Peu mieux faire dans le "pire" des cas. 🙂‍↕️
Un truc juste qui me hérisse le poil ... 😏
Le nom du contact devrait être :

Another ship where I'm trying new loadouts...
That one is Mirai Guardian. 2xS5 Attrition and 4xS4 missiles plus a bunch of components changed.
