The Fragility of Purpose: Nier: Automata

The hollowness and powerlessness when purpose is given and destroyed.

I at first played the YorHa Edition from Rutracker. After finishing A, B, C and D endings, I felt like the game is worth buying (even though it is very expensive to be honest).

To migrate the save, direct copy of the save data does not work. In addition to copy, you need this tool I found on Github -> https://github.com/jimmyazrael/NierAutoModSave

The following is the README of the project:

Narrative Focus and Epiphanies in Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End

Think of the typical heroic epics—like the story of Joan of Arc. These tales are elevated to a near-sacred status, yet the memories most cherished by the heroes themselves often vanish into the river of history, forgotten and overlooked.

The anime Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End adapts the manga by Kanehito Yamada and Tsukasa Abe, weaving a tale that begins where most epics end. (Plot summary: After a ten-year journey, a hero’s party defeats the Demon King. The story picks up long after, exploring life in the aftermath of such a legendary adventure.)

From Social Network Idea to Universal Framework: A Journey into Decentralization

Sometimes, the best ideas start with a specific goal in mind and end up taking on a life of their own. I started working on a decentralized social network to tackle some big challenges: keeping conversations rational, protecting privacy, and reducing harmful behavior without relying on a central authority. But as I worked through it, I realized this design could go way beyond just social networking. Here’s how it all started as a concrete idea, got distilled into its core elements, and ended up as a flexible framework for decentralized interaction.

A Decentralized Approach to Moderation

Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about the way content moderation works on social media. The current system feels distant and biased, with radical and irrational information that feed battles over trivia. So, I’ve been playing with an idea: What if we took a decentralized approach to moderation? Something that fosters trust and rational communication while cutting down on the extreme, harmful stuff we all encounter online.
