UNFAIR ALGORITHMS (IN GAMES AND REAL LIFE!) 

UNFAIR ALGORITHMS
(IN GAMES AND REAL LIFE!)

- PART 1

Oh the realisation having played all these unfair games and I DON'T MEAN HARD, I MEAN PROPORTIONATELY CHEATING ACCORDING TO MY WINNING!!

Sad reality. Unacceptable.
Bit like banking making debt and calling it 'money'.

Mario Kart I realise is my skill but powerups and other things proportionately not in my control... so love the game but leave it. I think overall I realised games are manipulation also!!

I remember many times I didn't do much wrong but came last or 'suddenly' taken out in a combo or even thought I saw a blatant dodge by computer players (hard to say without seeing code right?). Definitely something 🐟

(check my next post for recorded cheating by CPU!!!)

Kind of sad - I think I realised a few times but couldn't name it... so I won simply by brute-forcing my time in order to win against by chances hoping the code would 'let me win' like a gambling machine... just to win an unfair game. Eh I guess it's a game but imagine unfair carnival games that kids pay for and adults!

CARNIVAL CHEATS (REAL LIFE!)

People probably took this and applied it to life. Wouldn't be surprised at all - it's the 90's remember so not surprising if more modern people realised they can make things look fair and for people to try endlessly while paying too!!
airline tickets etc do same thing more you look at it or more you go to another partner site... dirty tricks, money involved not just mario coins!)
Even supermarkets can see when you buy 10 to up the price the next day...

Imagine how advanced these games were and clever to make it hard the closer to 1st place you were and effectively a way of knocking you down to replay the game! Knock down your skill with the other CPU players who are able to gang up and shoot more effective things at you, at the same time as you have less effective defensive shells...

Other games welcome - here's my list of cheaters for now:

Mario Kart
Street Fighter (computer does moves quicker like Flashkick by not charging the move at all - how cheap / underhand!)

GAMES CHEATING!
...UNFAIR CPU AND ALGORITHMS

NO WONDER CAPITALISM COPIED WHAT LOOKS FAIR BUT ISN'T! CHECK THIS VIDEO FROM BACK IN 90'S STILL SEEN IN THE EMULATED VERSION TODAY!

Guile from SF2 needs about 2 seconds to charge down to do this FLASHKICK move (so walking back or while standing can't happen unless *maybe* in a combo or 'charging' the move in some other way- standing up or walking back cancels the charge.. at least for human players!!!!!! )

Hard to catch cheats, that's why you need to see the code... Anyone got the Street Fighter code?

PODCAST COMPLIMENT !!
FREESCHOOL AUDIO 'TESTIMONIAL' :)

It's also a compliment on someone who can really catch good things or take best they can.

It takes two to tango and a random lovely person gives me ample audio feedback suddenly which was unexpected and what I wish for in everyone... as we are all pretty good in many ways but sometimes let websites or technological representation get in the way... there is enough on my website for people to take the best from and better not to try and understand it all in under 5sec!

Some notes:

- if you are happy it probably helps your outlook looking at a old/crap website or not (freeschool.0id.org/?s=audio)

- I think it helps to know what you like personally so even if the website is a mess just enter in the search box and make your life easier! (it's on the middle-right side, type some key topics if you know what you are into!)

- Browsing without heavy to understand it all or be so sensitive helps!!!

Hi All!

A personal list of my interests.

These are the subjects I'm happy to explore and expand upon in chat. I can personally introduce some topics if just want listen or even talk yourself for about 5/10mins like a radio.

(Made one / can help you build one / send PDF)
playing (have a real board and microphone? Let's play!)
(Self-improvement and awareness)
(Onion skins of realisation / discovery)
food (Greenhouse and outside)
/ / / /
Living / Natural Life
Engineering (like fixing computers but with willing people instead)
/ Making Lists (Point Extraction, Analysis & ReUse)
/ / (can offer advice)
people / (Learning Lessons)
/ Care / Consideration (towards unity in human family and the 'how?')
(Harmonising and balance)
and
(fascinating developments / potentials)
/ (want to answer my questions?!)
editing / moderating (group meetings / personal conversations)

All genuine interest. I'm also responsive, so whatever you're thinking I don't mind.
List and let's do what we can, with love for it.

At least from my part I feel happy to see any connections to the list or totally new stuff.

- Please feel free to suggest a chat topic (via text/audio chat)

- And visit personally if you like in Europe! Pictures on website.

It's a bit daring but friendship and exploration is the main thing here.

I am enjoying right now...

big from small footprints
what I can
the house!
people to relate to others randomly and practice more-real contact / interaction
to conversations and in between things
another conversation and passing on my calculated / measured evaluations

Welcome to share anything yourself and I'll go for a monologue / lecture any day! (either direction!)
Making with basic microphone sound effects, perhaps to be totally 'remastered' or by someone willing to do convert the audio sketch :)

Links exchange welcome or playing music to each other while working (like a radio) can be via Jitsi Meet which is good enough for a bit of audio, whenever you're ready let me know the genre, time, and go to something like meet.jit.si/chataboutmusic

A lot of this is an ubuntu kind of contact, meaning:
-I am because you are giving / sharing yourself,
-We make whole others, we give each other meaning, and therefore give life.

Thank you all
Have a great day!
