Comparing things is often an error between two unique objects.

#CHESS vs. GO (# of moves) + METAPHORIC "RACISM" reducing "liberties" by surrounding black (or white). 

Go is extremely complex despite the simple rules.

Compared to chess, Go has both a larger board with more scope for play, longer games and many more alternatives to consider per move.

Go has been calculated to have approximately 2.1×[10 to the power 170] legal board positions which is far greater than the number of atoms in the observable universe,

in is estimated to around [10 to the power of 80].

THE NAME:
The name Go is a short form of the Japanese word igo (囲碁; いご), which derives from earlier wigo (ゐご), in turn from Middle Chinese ɦʉi gi (圍棋, Mandarin: wéiqí, lit. 'encirclement board game' or 'board game of surrounding').

RACISM:
The basic picture on Wikipedia or any site might show White reducing "liberties" progressively by one by surrounding black.

In picture [D], when Black has only one liberty left, that stone is under attack and about to be captured and eliminated (a state called atari). Also interesting for and gamers who know about "Atari" Personal Computer.

Negativity starting from the top + "Go" Games of Life... 

TLDR; Better practices in life as we go and looking at the overall game we have been born in to work on changing it now / move by move...

MORE ON THAT DEEPER

We must look at the negativity STARTING from the top if life is to mean anything, else you fail to make the whole chain positive for the next person or even yourself.

We can be positive but we must also look at changing negatives above us / in our workspace / what we are working within as the new-borns "born into it".

Negativity flows from top down.

🚨 And specific examples what I mean are below while working positively: 🚨

1█ Banks starting people from debt = Negative numbers (debt distributed / multiplied),

+ if anyone has an animation showing how there is more debt compared to existing money please say!

2█ People pushing bodies to their energetic limits for devaluing money.

3█ Anyone satisfied and pushing others into workaholism / totalitarian regimes / Work Nazis etc...

================
🔳 LIKE A GAME OF GO... 🔳
================
In a game you might flip the black to white in this metaphorical sense of "darkness to light", and so more meaning happens in the overall sense if the whole game becomes it's own light / counter or token a one part of the "games of life" that we can all start flipping to white/light (in the non-racial sense of awareness and working more together no matter who you are).

ℹ️ FYI "GO" IS THIS GAME:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_(game

"Go" is a board game for two players who place counters on a grid; the object is to surround or and so capture the opponent's counters. by fencing off empty space.

That's why I guess I'm personally help "flip" or asking people to turn over to the other side (better practices in life as it's not always 1 move but many small moves that we can all help with)...

We are alone, even together.

We're still alone with certain people even when seemingly coming together and gathering.

No offense to the citizens, but USA is a failed Capitalist experiment. Nothing really works optimally, or even close to it. Everything is backwards, wasteful, unjust, non-free, anti-democratic, and in general several hundred years behind more mature nations…

Why "GOOD" people are Bad at "Business"...? + Do better BAD? 

WHY?... BECAUSE ultimately good people don't agree with a lot (like don't like banks, tax, hyper-inflation, added %'s, arbitrary / added pricing pyramid schemes, etc...
...so good people tend not to do those things knowing and shy away knowing it's trouble / bad design FROM THE START... BUT

The idea of this post is to create our way so it's done better
(in a much smaller and careful scale) and that needs you to find something you like and STICK WITH IT slowly but surely to make 'The alternative(s)".

WE NEED EACH OTHER BECAUSE UNLESS we can help each other do these things better then Capitalism, then Crapitalism will do the bad for us + tax us to death

(we fall victim to it anyway and end up paying for these things we don't like anyway, so we must / should do it ourselves as the imperative):

FOR EXAMPLE:

- Better Advertising
(nobody likes the idea of this especially using 'Free' software bubbles but WE MUST do it for our own sakes and causes to stay in touch / stay alive / keep each other in contact the *good version* or 'better business' type model of ADVERT which is to *ATTRACT* inside a that more-free style constantly and what I think gets better of improved as we go and as we get more mutual and aligned

(e.g. we don't need to pay for server space or internet connections individually - we can share locally or remotely and then the others gives what they already have - pooling it all)

And even "Time" is a usable resource and very under-estimated with people on Fediverse.

SUMMARY
We must use all in the eco-system if we are to break through the concrete Crapitalism... and ALSO BUILD OUR OWN TO CROSS THAT THRESHOLD... build slowly by surely... anytime from NOW! And make from old... to new...

(get in touch - start with any passionate topic - I can help converse about it and give some options to ping pong)

From + Crapitalism
To [INSERT YOUR TAGS HERE on ]

I don't know the whole setup - just that we need each other and 'some' business... so let's not die alone and pool something together (copy Capitalism but better / clearer non-just-money accumulation and snowball something else at the same time as selling what you usually sell - including yourself since nobody can escape this anyway so we good people MUST FACE IT!)

"Soldiers without guns are still working for war" #War #Poem #Lyrics 

They want me to be a soldier
in a war I never started,

I don't have a gun
but my money and tax pays towards the dearly departed.

When I talk about money and banks, it's like I was the one who farted,

but YOU'RE the one paying
to fight a war that I never started.

"Go to work" you say and then complain about the "company" bosses who are half-hearted.

Maybe I don't accept people paying for matches
and saying "I didn't light it!"

"The war?..."
"Well I didn't start it!"

Yours sincerely,

#Mastodon #Backup BUT NO #Import function! Am I right if I say this?... Your data on is stuck (on Mastodon or other ActivityPub platforms also, ask your admin!) because the export format of your backup is NOT a human readable format and no pictures show with it! (i.e. your backup is almost everything on one long line of code, in JSON format, and post text is all mixed together) AND currently there is **NO OFFICIAL WAY** to import your data and put post TEXT BACK WITH THE PICTURES in something like it's original form!!!! Do I have this correct? PLEASE TELL ME I'M WRONG -CAN BACKUPS BE ACTUALLY IMPORTED BACK INTO IT'S ORIGINAL FORM (OR SIMILAR) USING OFFICIAL MASTODON WAY ?

"Supply and Demand" and similar systems make us compete and pay more for the same things... 

"Supply and Demand" pricing means that we are competing against each other and the pricers are put the prices up sharply and steadily, purely from more people in any system willing to fight or pay more...

So just to stay alive we can easily start paying crazy prices... and also deliberate scarcity too (control and manipulation) so we the public have a big weakness from many angles...

(also others things like people paying for extra luxuries but imagine how much even basic things like bread other have gone up even though they try keep those lower because it would literally kill us too fast, and they want to kill us slowly and financially, like bleeding human patients almost dry in a bad hospital but not killing them off)

This is not good and superficial / arbitrary (a human-add and market manipulation)

The federated revolution started 14 years ago; CW: long (636 characters), Fediverse meta, non-Mastodon Fediverse Meta 

You think decentralised social networking was invented with Mastodon? Think twice.

It was almost exactly 14 years ago, on May 13th, 2010, that @Mike Macgirvin 🖥️ conceived Mistpark. All by itself revolutionary and with features which no-one else has ever built into a decentralised project until today, it was only the first step of a long journey which led to Friendica, nomadic identity, Hubzilla, all three still before Mastodon, and eventually the streams repository.
