2024.05.16 23:26 Upwithstock We are an Oncology company! Again!

Good afternoon Longs,
Great shareholder letter from Dr. JL today! But, I gotta chuckle regarding the CRC study being the number one priority. It reminded me of when Scott Kelly suddenly announced on some CC: "We are going be an Oncology company". Shareholders that heard the comment (including myself) were baffled. We have not seen any clinical trial animal or human that would have suggested anything of the sort. However, we were aware of some mice studies that were being conducted at MD Anderson (MDA). That study was a combo trial with LL/Keytruda, and somehow u/MGK2 or somebody found out or figured out the trial on mice was a CRC study. Sorry can't remember the details, but here we are again with Oncology being the front-runner for CytoDyn's priorities.
I am pleased with today's letter because it was obvious that Dr. JL is working with potential partners to further our clinical trial objectives. However, instead of a summer start for HIV Chronic Inflammation trial; we were told 2 phase II clinical trials would start before the end of the calendar year. The priority is the CRC trial and second is the HIV Chronic Inflammation trial.
I gotta ask: Why the a delay in starting any of the trials? There could be several reasons but IMO the partnerships being alluded to in the letter are the main reason for the delays. Dr. JL knows well and good that it is conventional wisdom to partner with BP to move forward on any trials. It is not the only way but most developmental drug companies (like CYDY) choose the conventional route and partner with BP to accomplish clinical trials.
According to the letter interest from 3rd party partners went up after the clinical hold was removed. But the MD Anderson CRC study was way long ago. It was during that time when Scott Kelly was able to state: "We are going to be an Oncology company". Keytruda is from Merck and we never heard the results of the trial at MDA. Just silence, and I am sure that we will not hear the Mice trial results for GBM that used a Merck drug either for some time. IMO, Merck has been here for some time and is not new to CYDY, or Leronlimab or the Long Acting LL.
Dr. JL moved the date out for initiating the trials to the end of 2024. Why? My impression of Dr. JL is he wants to get Leronlimab into patients in need ASAP. That would mean let us get the trials going ASAP, but we have no money to do it on our own. So why can't Merck just run the trials ASAP? They could! We just have to have a straightforward partnership agreement that would allow them to run the trials in return for potential revenue down the road. But is that intriguing?
From the letter: Research and development partnership opportunities are important to the Company as we search for cost-effective ways to further build out our product development portfolio. We have identified several such opportunities that we believe are intriguing, and anticipate finalizing agreements with these partners in the very near future. Such potential partnerships include an investigator-initiated pilot study of leronlimab in patients with Alzheimer’s Disease, and a project that will evaluate the use of leronlimab in patients living with HIV who are undergoing stem cell transplantation in a proof of cure study. Following lifting of the clinical hold, we have observed a significant increase in third parties that are interested in partnering with the Company. We will continue to review opportunities as they arise, given the potential for significant value return at little or no cost to the Company.
Look the investigator-initiated studies are "intriguing" and that will not cost CYDY much money at all. Just supplying the product. IMO pushing the beginning of the trial dates back from summer to end of 2024 is all about allowing for the intriguing negotiations to further develop. During that time several things will take place: Hopefully, we get the Alzheimer mice trial results done, which is more data on our ever-expanding indications that we have evidence on, not just a theory. The combo Stem-cell/LL study is a great way to create competition. Stem-cell companies like ATHX and MESO are non-drug companies and our direct competitors to any drug company. the stem cells that are devoid of the CCR5 molecule are very rare and stem-cell companies would have a hard time harvesting enough to build an adequate supply around. It's not sustainable. But a stem-cell supply pre-treated with LL is a different animal.
Essentially, Dr. JL wants to get LL in the hands of treating physicians ASAP, but he needs a little bit more time to expand the evidence that LL will work in multiple indications. in theory, we already know it has 90+ potential indications from ohm20's list. Plus, Dr. JL needs a little bit more time to show the true value of the Long Acting LL. Or Long Acting goes to LIVIMMUNE and CYDY/LL is part of a BO.
We know a BO announcement is not solid on just a list of theories. It works better when you list that positive clinical signals have been shown for MASH, CRC, mTNBC, PASC, HIV and a boatload of CCR5 published articles that implicate a slew of other indications. If Long Acting is included in the CYDY BO, then Dr. JL has to show some similar amount of evidence (Monkey data) and that would be accretive to the overall value of CYDY.
Merck quote at JP Morgan Healthcare conference in San Francisco: Merck CEO Rob Davis said at the 42nd Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference in San Francisco on January 8, 2024, that the company is open to deals of any size, but is not interested in large-scale acquisitions that would require combining workforces. Davis made these comments after the company's $680 million acquisition of Harpoon Therapeutics earlier in the day.
Fiercepharam interview with Merck CEO: https://www.fiercepharma.com/pharma/merck-still-market-deals-1b-15b-range-ceo-says
In the above link, Merck CEO says: “It’s gonna be a range of deals, but if you look in that $1 [billion] to $15 billion [range], that continues to be what we’ll look for,” Davis said. “We’ve also shown that not only are we very open to acquisition, we see collaboration as an important tool as well.”
If Merck is involved, then Dr. JL, Mitch, and Cyrus are going to do all they can to show evidence on multiple indications that will increase CYDY's valuation to $15 Billion or so. Basically, with CYDY's outstanding share count at or very near 1 billion shares that equates to $15 per share. The only reason we partner now is because the partner wants more evidence of clinical efficacy, but that partner is going to realize pretty quickly that if they wait too long the bidding war is going to cost them more than $15 Billion.
Good speed to the LONGS!

2024.05.16 23:15 Thromnomnomok The Mariners' offense has a 112 wRC+ over the past month, 6th best in baseball

Since April 15th we've hit .240/.312/.411, which doesn't sound all that great at first, but offense has been pretty down so far this year- over the same stretch the league as a whole is hitting .237/.307/.381, and our pitching staff has allowed a brilliant .188/.255/.316 slash line.
We're still striking out a ton (28.0% over that stretch, the second highest team is a tie between the Rockies and Red Sox at 25.9%), but we're also 4th in homers and 5th in BABIP, so we're doing enough damage when we make contact to put up a decent batting line overall.
We're a bit worse in runs, at 4.25 Runs/Game (11th), because 112 wRC+ assumes a neutral environment and we're in a really pitcher-friendly one, but that's a perfectly fine scoring output when we're allowing just 3.07 Runs/Game (3rd best, only the Dodgers and Braves have been better). Our Run Differential is a pretty good +33, translating to a .644 Pythagorean win expectation (nearly matched by our actual .643 win percentage, 18-10) which is... once again, 6th, behind the Dodgers, Phillies, Yankees, Orioles, and Braves.
(#6org will live on forever)
The improvement has been pretty much team-wide, too:
(In this table I left out Samad Taylor, who has no games after April 15th, and Jonathan Clase, Sam Haggerty, and Leo Rivas, who have no games before- none of them has very many PA's, in any case)
Player wRC+ through 4/14 wRC+ since 4/15
Josh Rojas 141 163
Dominic Canzone 134 184 (in 1 game)
Mitch Haniger 127 72
Luis Urias 114 71
Dylan Moore 102 106
Jorge Polanco 88 80
Ty France 86 100
Cal Raleigh 68 146
J.P. Crawford 61 132
Mitch Garver 45 115
Julio Rodriguez 34 124
Luke Raley -17 161
Seby Zavala -100 (0 for 12) 172 (6 for 18)
Of those 13, 6 had huge improvements, adding at least 70 to their wRC+ (though in Zavala's case in particular, the sample size is absolutely tiny), with Canzone also having an improvement by this split but he went on the IL on the 14th and just came back yesterday so kinda hard to draw any real conclusions from him. Ty France, Dylan Moore, and Josh Rojas hit more marginally better, Jorge Polanco marginally worse, and then there's Mitch Haniger and Luis Urias who are the glaring exceptions to the teamwide trend, having crushed it the first couple of weeks but have largely been bad since then.
Why did we start so bad and get better? Hard to say for sure. Might have been early bad weather, might have just been random chance, but looking back, it looks like we just faced a big slate of tough pitching in those first couple of weeks- in our 6 road games against the Jays and Brewers, we were closer to an average offensive team (90 wRC+) and scored 25 runs across those games (exactly matching our recent 4.25 Runs/Game average), but in the 9 home games? .193/.274/.272 (70 wRC+), with 24 Runs (2.67 Runs/Game). Which is terrible, but in all fairness, those 9 games were against the Red Sox (3.53 Runs Allowed/Game, with a MLB-leading 2.74 ERA), Guardians (3.66 Runs Allowed/Game), and Cubs, who are closer to average overall (4.25 Runs Allowed/Game), but they started both Shota Imanaga and Javier Assad against us, who are currently 1st and 3rd among qualified starters in ERA, at 0.96 and 1.49, respectively. (But on the other hand, we also failed to score a single run off the Cubs' middling bullpen in 11 innings of that 3-game series so... there's also some just us sucking in there)

2024.05.16 22:48 Far-War-3804 A04 GENERAL SMITH Issues STERN WARNING to WHITE HAT OFFICERS MAY10, 2024

A04 GENERAL SMITH Issues STERN WARNING to WHITE HAT OFFICERS MAY10, 2024
https://preview.redd.it/pqnh69t4pu0d1.jpg?width=621&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e050a08a3b29d6452afadfdf16b6c77553bc82cc

GENERAL SMITH Issues STERN WARNING to WHITE HAT OFFICERS MAY10, 2024
The White Hats are inextricably linked to both President Donald J. Trump and the United States Constitution, and their commander, Marine Corps General Eric M. Smith, has said he will not tolerate officers who endorse or collaborate with the Red Hat movement, a source in the general’s office told Real Raw News.
Following an uncomfortable face-to-face encounter with Red Hat leader Col. Kurtz, Gen. Smith issued a decree. He firmly stated that officers under his command could not have dual or split allegiances. Their duties as White Hat officers, he wrote, were fundamentally incompatible with the Red Hat’s agenda.
“Any officer under my charge who espouses support for the Red Hats is violating the Constitution and the UCMJ and is as deceptive as any Deep Stater ever was,” the general wrote in a memorandum sent to thousands of Armed Forces officers in the U.S. and abroad.
As reported yesterday, Gen. Smith got blindsided at Friday’s meeting when his aide—a Marine Corps captain who had attended countless White Hat council assemblies—revealed himself to be a Red Hat and an ally of Col. Kurtz, a revelation that must have demoralized the general. Why he exposed himself instead of staying covert is a mystery, but Gen. Smith postulated that Kurtz orchestrated the deception to rattle him and to prove that Red Hats had infiltrated the White Hat command structure.
In his memo, Gen. Smith called Kurtz “recklessly dangerous” and said that officers obeying Kurtz’s commands were acting in contravention of Article II, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution, which states, “The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States.”
“President Trump has not sanctioned Red Hat operations against our Deep State adversaries, and neither have I. As you well know, President Trump ceded provisional authority to General David H. Berger when he left Washington, D.C., and when Gen. Berger retired, his responsibilities became my own. I have discharged those duties to the best of my ability. The man calling himself Colonel Kurtz, the fictional antagonist in the film Apocalypse Now, is a civilian. He resigned because he wanted to fight the Deep State his way instead of according to the commander-in-chief’s plan. Some of you might be frustrated, but you are dutybound to uphold the Constitution. Not follow some disgruntled Marine’s interpretation of it.”
Gen. Smith concluded his letter with a stern warning: “If you privately sympathize with Red Hats, that’s your prerogative. However, if you identify as a Red Hat or are sharing our intelligence with them, you’re as dishonorable as a Deep Stater and should resign your commission. Any among us caught sharing classified info risks a court-martial.”

2024.05.16 22:01 Dorrin_Verrakai I ran the MMLU-Pro benchmark on GPT-4o, some notes

(Yes, the creators already did this, but I wanted to try reproducing their results.)
First of all, there's definitely still issues with the dataset.
  1. Questions mostly have 10 possible answers, but some have fewer "to remove unreasonable choices". This is supposed to be done by actually having <10 answers (I assume), but in some cases questions are padded with N/A at the end multiple times. Removing N/A from the end of the options list until only one existed resulted in removing 3314 options from the test. AFAIK N/A is never the correct answer to any question (I checked).
  2. Some questions are duplicates. I kept only the first instance encountered. This removed 86 questions from the test. I didn't check if their answer options were also duplicates.
  3. Some questions have duplicate answer options (i.e. A and C or whichever being the same answer). As this is obviously incorrect I removed these questions from the test. This removed ~400 questions. It should be pretty easy to fix these but I didn't want to spend more time.
  4. Some questions are impossible to answer as they're missing info.
    • For example, question ID 2668 is "Which of the following scans can image brain function?" but it does not give further details, and the answer options are things like "I, II and III only".
    • I only noticed one of these but I'm pretty sure there are more.
  5. Some questions have very bad formatting, like 11797:
    • \textquotedblleftNew business firms can under price older firms, because thenewer firms can buy the latest equipment and are not bur-denedwith the older, less economical equipment which olderfirms must retire before they can economically adopt thenew. This is why continued technological progress contributesto maintaining a competitive economic system." Explain the er-rors in both sentences.
    • Smarter models will probably do better on things like this, but I don't think the formatting is intentional.
For my first run, I used temperature 0.2 (they used 0.1) and this system prompt:
You are a knowledgeable expert. When given a multiple choice question, think it through then give your single final answer as The answer is ....
Here is their system prompt:
You are an knowledge expert, you are supposed to answer the multi-choice question to derive your final answer as The answer is ....
I'm not a fan of the phrasing, but more importantly in my preliminary testing I noticed that GPT-4o interpreted it to mean that it could give multiple answers. My "single final answer" was intended to prevent that. This mostly worked, but when answering questions that involved a lot of LaTeX in the CoT it would sometimes format the answer using LaTeX, making regex matching unreasonably hard. (I didn't fix those, scoring them as failures.)
For my second run, I used temperature 0.5 (which OpenAI uses in their simple-evals repo) and this system prompt:
Answer the following multiple choice question. The last line of your response should be of the following format: 'Answer: ($LETTER)' (without quotes) where LETTER is a single one of the options. Think step by step before answering.
This is based on this prompt from OpenAI's evals. OpenAI's says to pick one of "ABCD" but I was too lazy to generate that dynamically so I changed it a bit. It seems to work well. I used the regex Answer\s*:\s*\(\$?([A-Ja-j])\) to capture the answer.
If the model's output didn't seem to give an answer at all I manually checked it. This was:
Here are the results I got, plus the original results from TIGER Lab @ UWaterloo.
Models Prompting Overall Biology Business Chemistry ComputerScience Economics Engineering Health History Law Math Philosophy Physics Psychology Other
GPT-4o (TIGER Lab) CoT 0.7149 0.8504 0.7852 0.7428 0.7512 0.784 0.5401 0.7152 0.6718 0.5393 0.762 0.6947 0.7355 0.7726 0.7091
GPT-4o (my first run) CoT 0.7100 0.8441 0.7802 0.7502 0.7404 0.7763 0.5740 0.7061 0.6761 0.5753 0.7901 0.6760 0.7349 0.7611 0.7117
GPT-4o (my second run) CoT 0.7113 0.8441 0.7725 0.7628 0.7506 0.7662 0.5584 0.6964 0.6641 0.5597 0.7772 0.6474 0.7378 0.7445 0.7041
So I'd say the results themselves are basically "yep, that sure is how it scores". I don't know if my overall scores are actually slightly worse or if it's the effect of removing almost 500 questions from a 12.3k question dataset.
Total cost: maybe $160 based on token counts, messed up cost tracking at first.
The second run had approx 2.17M input tokens and 5.04M output tokens. Naively scaling this to other models (without actually using their tokenizers, and assuming they'll give identical output lengths) gives these approximate prices:
I don't intend to run those.
I'll post the inputs/outputs of both runs if anyone knows a good place to upload password-protected zips (to avoid accidental scraping, since everything posted to reddit is trained on).

2024.05.16 21:57 RevolutionStandard99 A poem about mariage in Cypriot Greek, written using Turkish alphabet by my grandfather in the year 1965 and a few questions about Greek alphabet, it's history and orthography.

My late grandfather has kept a few writings of poetry in Cypriot Greek sung by the natives of Yalya (Γιαλιά), mostly our relatives. Chatismada poetry was mostly sung but sometimes said without melody, in daily interractions, as a means of story telling and for important events (like weddings or at harvesting/threahing time), examples of the first two categories,i have posted before but not of the third. As a result of the attention my last post recieved, i saw that since the last time i visited it the subreddit has aquired some knowledgable members, so i would like to ask a question using the example of the below poem to further illustrate my example. İn my previous posts or comments that made in Greek, i used an orthographic style somewhere in between Greeklish and Turkish trying to use as grammer as correctly as possible, using the afforementioned orthography. One example would be i would use the english "j" or "dj" for what would be "τζ" using the greek alphabet instead of the or using the turkish "ğ" for "γ" , altough this sound is close but not exact as "γ" it is more akin to the silent glossal consonant invetween "α" and "ε" in "αέρα" which i would write as "ağera" instead of the nasal "γ" in "αγάπη". . İ am saying all this because the exteact below is not watered down unlike what i have shared previously and is written completely using the Turkish alphabet and would be almost imposible to decipher, so i would put a trasliteration under every line for this reason i redownloaded Reddit on my phone. The reason i am writing it as it was recorded is that it relates to my question below the poem as it would not make much sense whithout seeing it in its orriginal form. Here it is:
DOBİYİMMAN DİSNİFFİS(Το Ποίημμαν Της Νύφφης)
Ennasasbo miyan fimin neyan (Εννά σας πω μιαν φήμην νέαν) Ennasasbo enan galon biyimman (Εννά σας πω έναν καλόν ποίημμαν) Ofeğos masedogen miyanevloğiyan (Ο Θεός μας έδωκεν μίαν ευλογίαν) Na ehumen myan familyan neyan (Να έχουμεν μίαν φαμίλιαν νέαν)
Ennasasbo miyan alisgân (Εννά σας πω μίαν αλήθκειαν) Ofeğos isdes yenneces din omorsgân (Ο Θεός είς τες γενέτζες την ομορθκειάν) Edogen navrusin efdişan (Έδωκεν να βρούσιν ευτυσ̌άν) Ceda mandilya (Τζαι τα μαντιλιά) Brosdadefgun iyafrobi budin amardiyan (Προστατεύκουν οι ανθρώποι που την αμαρτίαν)
Elada omorfimmu goruğa (Έλα δα όμορφην μου κορούα) Ağeyi digissu bigan (Άε η δικήν σου ποίκαν) Ağeda befgassu sanduca(Άε τα πευκά σου σαντούτζα) Ağeda ğrusafenassu sdolisgâ (Άε τα γρουσαφένα σου στολίθκια) Ceda marmarga su anciya(Τζαι τα μαρμαρκά σου αντζία)
Hade ra omorfimmu goraşa (Χάτε ρα όμορφην μου γορασ̌ά) Aboşeredise yidikissu bedigididan (Αποσ̌αιρετίσε η δικήν σου πεδικότηταν) Edimase donlehossu me aroman (Ετοιμάσε τον λαίχως(?) σου με αρόμαν) Anigse meyeman ibataniyan (Ανοίξε με γιαίμαν η παττανίαν) Ofeğos nasu dogi bolla befgâ(Ο Θεός να σου δώκει πολλά πεθκιά) Cemellicin ağnyan(Τζαι μελλιτζήν αγνιάν)
A little while ago i saw a video on YouTube that talked about the griko language(dialect?) in Southern İtaly and the main thing that caught my attention was the fact that they used the latin alphabet to write Greek in and the manner in which they did so, obviously the orthography was created by a person that was able to use the Greek alphabet, it's main feature was that μου-μας-του etc. Were written adjacent to the noun for inctance "our father" would be written as "ocirimma" or my mother would be "imamammo" . When seeing this the first thing that came to my mind was the records of my grandfather. As a few examples of similarities with the above principle "yidigimmu"(η δικήν μου) could be presented as an example. The thing is Greek written in the Turkish alphabet can be read as entirely different from what it would be using the Greek alphabet, especialy without the use of intonations, while my grandfather had and other relatives that were native Greek speakers don't have the stereotypical Turkish Cypriot accent when speaking Cypriot Greek this i think derives from their proper use of intonation and the ability to use the sounds of θ and ττ(which only exists in a few Turkish dialects) which can be seen from the fact that θ is written as f or s above like in the example of "ofeğos" (ο Θεός). The Greek written in the Turkish alphabet would be uniteligable without a prior knowledge of intonations. This became clear to me when a friend who was trying to learn Greek came to me asking how to know how the accent mark would be placed when writing and when i illustrated the sound difference he wouldn't understand it while it was (mostly) easy for me when i first how to write using the Greek alphabet as i was already well versed in the language as in the above poem it can be seen that those without an intonation merge together like "ceda" (τζαι τα). Making all these points above now i can ask what i want to: How is the written grammar of a language determined when it encounters a writing system, how has the orthography of Greek changed overtime and why is it written in the manner it is and what alphabets has it been written with other than its own throughout history. To me Greek written using the Greek alphabet is superior in its ability to fully transmit what is to be conveyed, is there any pother reason to this other than its richness of letters and the ability to utilise intonation like the interraction of different words with one another?
My other question would be the word lehos, in this case it does not mean throat but was translated to Turkish by my Grandmother as "gerdek" which means the mariage bed, the first intercourse of a maried couple, the below reference of the oppening of a bloody blanket refers to the archaic tradition of showing the villagers blood stained blanket resulting from the bride's hymen being broken during the intercourse prooving her chastidy, this tradition was practiced in Cyprus as it was and still in across Eurasia. İf you know a name for this practice sharing it would be greatly apreciated.Thanks in advance for your patience and wisdom.
With regards.

2024.05.16 21:18 puddinteeth Great Pittsburgh restaurants that start with J?

Every year for our anniversary we go to a restaurant that starts with the next letter of the alphabet.
Looking for suggestions for letter J this year! It doesn't have to be fancy, but we prefer non-chains (local chains are OK) and great food. We're on the east side but will drive for somewhere worth it.
You've helped with our previous anniversaries in Pittsburgh: Gaucho, Hidden Harbor, and Independent Brewing Co.
Thanks yinz!

2024.05.16 20:42 WrongRun4764 Groomsman dress being destroyed?!

It’s been a long time I wanted to submit this story to the Potato Queen herself!
It’s a long story, actually it’s two stories in one, because as it involves the same person over more than decade long, it’s worth telling the whole story all at once (and it makes it may more fun too!). I decided to share it because it’s the kind of story that doesn’t seem to happen very often.
Below you will find goodies about an ex, a wedding, a dress, a delivery company and more! Please simply be mindful English is not my first language, trying my best to entertain you all the same.
This story goes back a long way, when (let’s name him) Frank (M) and myself (F) were both in college (both 17 at the time, we’re now 33), young and naive teenagers. We started as friends and eventually decided to be together. We then decided to move to another city together, as I was about to start university.
It went well for a while and then started to go south. So, long story short, after about two years together, we decided to break up. It wasn’t a mean breakup or anything, I think we were mostly disappointed it didn’t work out. Anyway.
We live in the province of Quebec. For those who don’t know, there is this weird tradition of starting and ending about any lease on July 1st. I have no idea why, but Canada’s Day has always been for anybody moving, in this province, a synonym of sweating under the sun, moving boxes, lifting heavy things and ending the day with cold beer and cheap pizza in a new and probably not so clean apartment. Why this context? Because we broke up two weeks before July 1st. It means it was virtually impossible to find another apartment so close to this date. We were about 7 hours away from both our families living on the countryside. We were also awfully broke students. We decided to give it a chance at being roommates.
Yes, it was super awkward at first, really not easy to manage to say the least. We were walking on eggshells and were definitely on edge for a while. There were also some pretty awkward situations, like this one time he decided to bring a one night home as I was sleeping in the adjacent room. Not only that, but the shameful phone call he had to make, waking me up in the middle of the night, so I could unlock the front door because he had forgotten his keys to find out he had brought home an acquaintance of mine. Nowadays I find this story delightfully funny tbh. But on that night, as I couldn’t go back to sleep because the gal decided to show off how an amazing singer she could have been —because, oh boy, this voice carried loudly all the way to my ears for more than an hour — I did not find it funny. I was furious, but prepared myself for the eventuality it would ever happen again. Do you remember the “Tiny Wall Challenges”? Let’s just say I had some games ideas after that night.
Anyway, anybody would probably have walked away but we still deeply cared for each other. We even did better than just survive through this whole year as roommates, we decided to move into a bigger apartment with two other friends. Believe it or not, we stayed there two more years. Moreover, these years were some of the best years and I still keep lots of good memories from this period.
Fast forward to the second part of the story. After being roommates for years, at some point we parted ways and lived our lives. We maintained contact throughout the years and when Frank finally started dating his wife to be, I was absolutely happy for him. He asked her to marry him and she said yes! Our friendship still held such a high place in both our hearts that he asked me to be one of his groomsmen, with his other best friend and his little brother. I felt so honoured, as I was technically a female, to be chosen to be on his side at the wedding.
The bridesmaids chose matching dresses in a beautiful forest green, all from a specialized website from UK, and I was to also be in a dress on the groom’s side, but matching the colour of the other groomsmen suits. With Frank, We all shopped together for their suits, chose a beautiful dark grey for his and a light grey for us, and we were able to match it perfectly with clothing samples I ordered from the website. Everything was going as planned. That being done, I ordered the dress, considering buying two inches heel shoes to go with it. It would take about four months to be done and the dress would arrive about a month and a half before the wedding. I decided to wait for the dress to arrive to pick shoes to go with it.
Four months passed, and I finally received a notice that the dress was on its way. The bridesmaids dresses arrived a bit before mine and they were all absolutely beautiful. As we all ordered from the same shop, we were able to choose different dresses that suited each of our styles, with identical fabrics that made the whole thing look fantastic.
I received the delivery’s notice, saying it was to be delivered by DHL. (If you never had to deal with this delivery company before, let’s just say this in itself is a red flag, but what could I do.)
I chose a delivery date that I could be home all day. I awaited their arrival, and waited. At some point I received a notification that they couldn’t deliver it because there was an error in the address. I called DHL customer service as soon as I read it and could verify with the clerk on the phone that there was no error on the original delivery address and that actually, internally, they miss-wrote a letter of the postal code. The person assured me that the delivery person would be notified and they would then be on their way back.
I waited. It never came.
The next morning, I received a notification that, unable to deliver it, the expeditor had agreed to DESTROY the package! I screamed! Why in the world would the UK online shop allow to destroy a custom made dress that took four months to do?! And why the hell the delivery service didn’t make any other attempt after being responsible of the address error in the first place. I was beyond mad. I called DHL, they confirmed someone at the company had agreed on the destruction of the item. I wrote to the person I was in contact with from the beginning at the online shop (this lovely clerk who clearly never asked for any of this). Over there, they couldn’t find who the hell agreed to this insane request to destroy the dress. They were also appalled and didn’t understand how it could have happened. They could put a request to redo the dress rush, but we first needed to either try to stop the destruction from happening by going to the DHL warehouse directly, or to obtain a proof from DHL that the dress was irreversibly lost forever.
It felt surreal! The fiancées were both furious too. There was only one DHL warehouse we could go to do this kind of request in the city and it was really far. As the clock was ticking, they jumped in their car, joined me, and to the warehouse we went, arriving a few minutes before closing like an epic movie scene. The clerk there was mind blown by the whole situation. It seemed we were too late and the best we could do was to have the proof that, in their system, the dress had effectively transited and was destroyed.
With photos as proof in hand, I forwarded everything to the clerk of the online dress shop. Days passed, as they were awaiting the okay to start sewing a new dress. They were really trying their best to help the situation but it seemed to be a mess over there about the whole situation. We were now a month before the wedding. At some point, I was starting to panic. They finally agreed to redo it, but it would be waaaay too close before the wedding to receive it. Like a few days before kind of close, if nothing happened in transport this time.
I decided to go shopping for another dress. I spent a whole day trying to find the perfect grey that would fit the other groomsmen suits. In the last possible boutique, there was one dress checking all the criteria. I bought the new one and wrote to the first shop, hoping they would agree to refund the lost dress.
I took an appointment later that week to do the adjustments on the new dress. I then shopped for shoes. I found a cute pair with one inch heel that would be perfect for me. I’m not used to walking with heels, so the lower the better after all.
Like all this turmoil wasn’t enough, my family called and told me that my grandfather’s health suddenly decreased. Remember? Seven hours drive from family. I canceled some plans and bought a ticket for the night’s bus ride right after the dress fitting. On that morning, the UK shop agreed to refund the dress. That part was a big relief. I went to the dress fitting. At last, three weeks before the wedding, The second dress would be ready in about seven days. I came back home to gather some things to get back out to catch my bus.
But suddenly, the doorbell rang.
I opened.
Some DHL delivery man casually gave me a package and left.
Yes. That’s what you think.
I closed the door, went to my room, sat on the bed, opened the bag. It was indeed the first dress. I had a melt down. I cried so hard. I put the dress down, looked at it, told it “I’ll deal with you when I come back” and went away to the bus station.
Few days later, coming back from the family, I collected the second dress and dealt with the first one, which no longer fitted the length of the shoes! My MIL at the time knew an old lady who was lovely enough to accommodate me and do the fitting of the first one for a as modest price. I decided to keep it a secret until the wedding day. (These friends wouldn’t do any drama about reveals etc, nor would they think it was stealing any of their thunder, don’t worry about that.)
On the wedding morning, I effectively surprised the bride and groom with both dresses. They were mind blowed, flabbergasted to say the least! I put the original one for the official photoshoot and discretely changed right after dinner for the other one. People around that had followed the incredible adventures were laughing out loud and finding it hilarious that I decided to wear both of them as I had so much troubles!
Quite a story with dresses and with an ex, right? Guess what, I’m also the godmother of their first child!

2024.05.16 20:01 RockinIrish Q&A Catch-Up (only here? Let me fill you in.)

So I've noticed it's about the same 10 people and all of the breakup type subs you know letters, unsent, EXNC And hell they all sound kind of familiar when you want them to don't they? So here we go... For all the ones that I see that say their people aren't contacting at all or aren't making any effort at all they haven't heard from them here or there they can't tell who's who so here we go: Hey J, I am taking steps - one already, I do love you, I do want to see you, I can't be the guy who missed showing up last night (for someone else). I am aware that I'm responsible for my actions. I'm wrapping my mind around your feelings and how you view my effort, activities, behaviors, transparency and overall kick ass attitude again self awareness should be a given. Also applies in relation to the percentage of chance or no chance, hoping for a chance. I genuinely have no interest in manipulation or gaslighting. If I'm performing those let me know and I will knock that shit straight the fuck off and moving forward you know you can assist me in eliminating that language. If I use it much it's because I'm charming and I can be pretty persuasive.... In the good way weirdos. I still see you as beautiful as ever Even if that's more difficult for yourself to do. I have saved for retirement. I do have a plan for myself for the future, I'd love for you to be in there....nope I hafta have you in there. I Have a desire to maintain proper health and wellness and watch out for you too. And I'm going to continue to front a punk band and want to included in that part of my life as well. So I hope this reaches you because I swear like five different people are you. If you're going to communicate because communication is key then we should probably jump on it within the next couple of steps or else we're going to miss something else that one of us has got to say I imagine. So I've got no idea who's who, but I want this to answer some questions if you're not getting any questions answered and you think I'm not remaining goal oriented, well I sure am.
And I think I'm missing something.....Oh yeah and I definitely want to f√¢k, please and thank you. For those that are still wondering I'm a letter C. Tada!

2024.05.16 19:12 mikozodav A couple questions, I'm new

Hi, I wanted to ask a few things as I've been thinking on and off about wanting to get a little into graffiti for a while now, just haven't really got to it yet.
Are there some resources about like the 'theory', like all the diffirent ways to write a letter and ways to stylize it. Or just a deep dive into all of it on like a 'theoretic' side
(if there is like a 'theoretic' and then the actual 'execution'/ the mechanical skill of holding a pen and writing, if that makes any sense. I imagine studying fonts from some website and calligraphy and learning to write in a decently readible handwriting would be useful?)
Also, how much does the 'name' or different words written mean? Is it just random stuff/ a word that looks cool/ does it actually mean something?
Thanks and sorry if these are dumb guestions.

2024.05.16 19:08 MissParadox4991 Where Can You Find an INTP? -ENFP

My (I/ENFP) boyfriend (INTP/J) and I broke up after five long years of a long-distance relationship. Some people think it's impossible to fall in love with someone you've never seen in person, but that wasn't the case for me. My INTP and I met online. I got an SMS from an unknown number that said, "Dear stranger, do you believe in second chances?" I was very intrigued at the moment and thought it was someone from my past who wanted to reconnect. Later on, I found out that he was indeed a stranger. I don't usually entertain messages from strangers, but there was something about him that made me want to keep replying. He sounded really depressed, like he was about to end his life. The Mother Teresa in me felt like I needed to save him.
So we talked and talked, but I was still mean to him because, you know, he was technically still a stranger. But we'd talk about all our problems, things we couldn't talk about with our family and friends, our deepest darkest secrets, etc. In my head, he didn't know me anyway. He prolly thought the same. We found comfort in each other.
After months of talking, we fell hard for each other. Really hard (at least for me). He was the best thing that ever happened to me. Yes, he was mostly very grumpy, but I found it cute! He was also the sweetest guy I’d ever met. He always wrote me love letters or dedicated songs to me. He was really vague, though! If there were things he couldn’t say directly to me, he’d find another way to send the message. As an ENFP, I am a very literal person, and unless you say it in exact words, even if I sense it already, I won't assume. It felt like I always needed to decode or solve a puzzle with him. I liked it, but not when dealing with serious issues. Still, he was the love of my life. But life gets in the way... We had the most beautiful, tragic love affair.
Anyway!!!
My INTP ex-boyfriend was a very private person. He didn’t have any social media (which I couldn't comprehend at first) and we only communicated through Skype or Telegram. I feel like I’ve never met an INTP in person or just couldn't spot one.
Where do INTPs hang out when they are not at home? I’m really curious. I think INTPs are awesome and I’d like to have more INTPs in my life.

So I somehow change my drastic controls and now when I navigate through drastic the all of the buttons go to the corresponding letter like button “a” takes me to games that start with a and etcetera.

2024.05.16 18:01 Squirrel09 A detailed look at YouTube statistics for different trailers & teasers.

TL/DR
Current YouTube Dislike Counter extensions work by taking data from those who have the extension and extrapolate information from there. The issue is that those who have the extension are individuals who are more likely to dislike, skewing the sample size to those who are more likely to dislike than the casual viewer.
A better look into those details would be comparing the publicly available Likes to View and calculating a percentage based on how likely someone is to Like a video while viewing. A simple calculation is Like / View. Reversing it to Views / Likes shows how many views it takes to receive 1 like.
This calculation doesn't magically make RoP the most successful trailer ever. Far from it, but it does better reflect the data and I believe it to not be skewed one direction or the other.
Rings of Power Data*
Link Views Likes Chance of Like per View
Season 2 Teaser Trailer 5,441,810 74,010 1.36%
Season 2 A look Inside 202,616 7,158 3.53%
Season 1 Main Teaser 12,479,810 79,395 0.64%
Season 1 Teaser Trailer 31,555,692 130,915 0.41%
See limitations of method section
Season 2 (so far) is faring much better than season 1 in this comparison.
 
INTRODUCTION
YouTube statistics, specifically likes/dislikes, is a common point in many online discussions when talking about upcoming media. Rings of Power Season 1 & 2 are not exempt from this. Since YouTubes removal of a dislike button in 2021 different extensions have come into play to replicate that. Most commonly the "Replace YouTube Dislike Button" Extension for Chrome (and probably other Browsers). My hope here is to
1) Point to the flaws that are associated with that extension.
2) A better way to measure Like/dislike engagement with publicly available data. By dividing the Likes by the Views to see how likely someone is to like the video.
3) The flaws associated with this method.
 
1) THE RETURN THE YOUTUBE DISLIKE EXTENTION (RYD)
Being made after YouTube removed the Dislike button in late 2021, this extensions goal was to return the dislike to YouTube (Duh). On release, Dislike data was still reported by YouTube API. So it began as a pretty straightforward app that simply called that data from the API and inserted it into the web page. Shortly after, YouTube removed that data from the API all together. Creators could still privately view their like/dislike, but that data couldn't be accessed by a 3rd party.
To counter that the app started working in a new way, it 1) Pulled as much information from the API that it could to have a "Base" set of data for videos posted before the removal. 2) Recorded when it's users interacted with the like/dislike buttons and added it to the data base. According to their GitHub FAQ #5 videos uploaded AFTER the API was shutdown is calculated by (RYD User Dislike Count)(RYD User Like Count) * Public Like Count. Simply put. It gets the ratio of it's users likes/dislikes and applies that ratio to the public count.
It's honestly not a bad system, but it has a pretty major flaw. The extension is more likely to be used by those who downvote more often. This simply skews the data to be Dislike heavy. This is pretty verifiable by doing a simple Google Search and reading up on what different YouTube Creators are saying. This Creator is claiming that the extension reports 50+ dislikes while YouTube reports 15! a ~230% increase!
The Return the YouTube Dislike Extent ion could be great, if people who are casual viewers & those who commonly like videos would download and use it as well. However, that's not the case and the result is a large group of their users are those who are more likely to downvote and want to see those numbers.
 
THE BETTER METHOD
I believe a better method to see the positive engagement of a video is looking at how likely someone is to "Like" the video per view. This is easily calculated by Getting the Like count and dividing it by the view count. You can also reverse that to calculate how many views it takes to get a like on overage. Since both of these numbers are publicly available, we can be much more confident that the numbers aren't skewed by an outside 3rd party group.
Lets look at different recently released trailers, Most "Successful" with this method to least.
Link Views Likes Chance of Like per View
Wicked - Official Trailer 2,019,551 103,339 5.12%
The Boys – Season 4 Official Trailer 9,202,858 426,627 4.64%
House of the Dragon Season 2 Official Trailer 3,094,267 126,642 4.09%
RoP Season 2 A look Inside 202,616 7,158 3.53%
Dune: Prophecy Official Teaser 1,795,601 60,603 3.38%
The Penguin 3,648,089 4,650 2.99%
The Acolyte Official Trailer 10,576,120 193,683 1.83%
RoP Season 2 Teaser Trailer 5,441,810 74,010 1.36%
Using this method, We can easily see the level of "Excitement" there is behind each trailer based on how likely someone is to like the video, and we can easily compare these numbers as well if you're so inclined.
 
LIMITATIONS OF LIKE/VIEW METHOD
As time progresses, opinions change. What might have been a highly anticiped tv show or movie could have been a dud and gotten a bunch of dislikes after the release. Or something could have flown under the radar, turned out great and so people are going back to the trailer and liking it out of excitement of the finished product. Because of this, this method shouldn't really be used to compare new and old videos as too many variables come up as time progresses. I did this in my TLDR section to compare season 1 & 2. A workaround for this would to pull the data from Waybackmachine for the same time period in relation. So what I should of done in my TLDR is grab a capture 2 days after reveal of the data. So a more accurate table would look like this...
Link Views Likes Chance of Like per View
Season 2 Teaser Trailer 5,441,810 74,010 1.36%
Season 2 A look Inside 202,616 7,158 3.53%
Season 1 Main Teaser (July 16th 2022) 4,535,187 53,000 1.16%
Season 1 Teaser Trailer(Feb 16th 2022) 18,754,323 84,000 0.44%
This didn't change the Season 1 Teaser Trailer much, but there was a significant change in the Main Teaser Percentage.
 
CONCLUSION
None of this really matters. If you like the show, great! If you don't, great! Either way, touch grass and hug a loved one (I know I need to after writing all of this lol). It's what J.R.R Tolkien would have wanted.
I like data and a major way people are comparing trailers is flawed and has a biased sample size. I think comparing Likes to views is a better way. This doesn't Magically make RoP somehow the most popular & well liked media ever produced. Far from it. But it is a better look at how it's trailers compare to other recent trailers.

2024.05.16 17:58 shaneka69 THE NUMEROLOGY OF JUNE

THE NUMEROLOGY OF JUNE

June is the 6th month of the year and sometimes people would say that Cancer season gives them a certain energy, but this can all be based on each individual person and their particular life and circumstances. Let's go ahead and decode the month to see how it is best used and to understand/comprehend the energy more. This month is only 4 letters so we won't have to do much.
J - 10th letter of the alphabet which vibrates at the energy of 1, but it is a greater energetic vibration than 1. 10 is the number of establishment and stability. It is the number of successful marriages and careers. In Astrology, Capricorn rules the 10th house which is the house of your reputation, so # 10 energetically has this influence as well.
U - 21st letter of the alphabet vibrating at the energy of 3. 2 is the number of compassion for others and the ability to cooperate and 1 is action or exertion. With the letter U, this brings about a sensitive or compassion energy to the month of June. People born in June will be sensitive and/or cooperative naturally.
N - 14th letter of the alphabet vibrating at the energy of 5 so this adds a creative or fun energy to the month of June, but this and also the 3(2 and 1 bringing compassion) makes this a good combination for romantic endeavors.
E - 5th letter of the alphabet which also makes a 2nd number 5 energy for the month of June. This increases chances of romance or even love making for the month based on the enhanced romantic energies of 5. This is an ultimate month for romance and fun activities plus the fact that it is usually summertime.
JUNE HAS A TOTAL NUMEROLOGY DESTINY NUMBER 5 WHICH ADDS EXTREME EMPHASIS ON IT BEING THE MONTH OF JOY, ROMANCE, CHILDREN, CHALLENGE, CRIME, PREGNANCY, AND CREATIVITY. Crime happens everyday of course, but the number 5 is linked to crimes and June can be a highlight. We can't really control the people of crime, can we? Nope. Use this month positively by basking in art, fun, and joyful experiences.
We can see that June has two letters with the energies of 5. 5x2=10 so this is usually a month where the focus becomes about contentment, family, happiness, and relationships that are fully established. This also makes a good month to get married.
For single people, June is a month good for business and adding more structure based on the energies of 10 present within the month with the letter J and the fact that the N and E equals 10 when added and simplified. Running your business creatively will do wonders.
If people don't find themselves enjoying the month of June, they just have to do more of what makes them happy(5) even if they are single or solo or seek family(10) or experiences that can make them feel content(10).
You can now understand why the people born this month may be either good looking, big on romance even if it is casual, and just overall fixated on love.

2024.05.16 17:28 Ok_Lake_1234 Green card received! Sept '23 filer

First of all, I want to thank
CodingOnCaffeine
for their post. I cannot comment anymore but it was super helpful. Make sure to check it out as it is very comprehensive. I pretty much submitted everything they mentioned. We applied in NY for a marriage based green card in Sept 2023 (sent to USCIS Chicago lockbox). We got married in August 2023 and had been together for 4 years. I (Beneficiary) came to study to the US from Mexico in 2020 on a student visa and was on OPT STEM when applying. My husband (Petitioner) is an American citizen.
Checking the timeline on USCIS wasn't dependable as it would change from a 4 month wait to 2 months and then 4 again. We would also check this website and we could see who was getting approved and when they had applied. We tried not to check every day as we realized it caused us a lot of anxiety. What ultimately helped us was contacting our Senator and within a month we received the approval notice (no RFE and no interview). We received approval on April 25th '24 and the physical card on May 6th '24 (9 month wait total).
Here's what we included in our package:
1. G-1145 (also included one with each form)
2. I-130 (husband petitioning for me) a)Cover letter b) Check c) 2 Passport photos (husband) Form I-130 Form I-130a a) Copy of Petitioner's (husband) birth certificate b) Copy of P's passport c) Copy Marriage certificate d) Relationship statement f) Third-party affidavits from family/friends (5) g) Copy current joint lease h) Copy previous joint leases i) Evidence of joint checking and savings accounts j) P's investment account's beneficiary k) Copy of joint car insurance l) Copy of Beneficiary's (wife) emergency contact from employer m) Copy of B's individual statement account n) Joint travel documents o) Phone records p) Venmo transactions q) Splitwise transactions r) PPT of photos s) Whatsapp conversations t) Wedding caterer invoice
3. Form I-485 a) Cover letter b) Check (I-485 and biometrics services fee) c) 2 Passport photos (wife) Form I-485 a) Copy of B's (wife) passport and visa b) Copy of expired passport with previous visas c) Copy of B's birth certificate (with official English translation) d) Copy of B's most recent I-94 record and visa entry stamp e) Marriage certificate f) Copy of B's current EAD g) Copy of B's offer letter from current employer h) Copy of B's current and previous I-20 forms Form I-864 a) Copy of P's previous W-2s b) Copy of P's federal taxes (2 years) c) Explanations of P's lack of federal tax returns in 2020 (while a student) d) Copy of P's offer letter from current employer e) Copy of P's pay slips from previous employer f) Copy of P's offer letter from previous employer g) Copy of P's birth certificate as proof of US citizenship h) Copy of first page of P's passport as proof of US citizenship i) Copy of B's pay slips (3 months) j) Copy of B's W-2 k) Copy of B's 1040
4. Form I-765 (employment authorization - just in case green card didn't arrive on time - STEM OPT expiration date was Sept '24) a) Copy of most recent I-94 record and visa entry stamp b) Copy of passport and visa pages c) Copy of F1-OPT STEM EAD card
5. Form I-693 (medical examination and vax record)
Make sure to keep a copy of everything and keep it as orderly as possible. From what I've read this helps with the process in general and in case you get a RFE. I read as much as I could online and watched Youtube videos explaining how to fill out each form. I also kept a Google sheet where I could track everything and add helpful links. You need a lot of time to check and re-check everything, get translations notarized, get affidavits, etc. so give yourself plenty of time. As stressful as the whole thing was, I enjoyed going back to our relationship and revisiting old photos and messages. Reading affidavits from our close ones also made me tear up. I do feel like I aged 10 years during the process and had a lot of anxiety so know that you're not alone! I will try to answer questions but I am not a lawyer and did the whole process w/o one, again - just reading online and getting information from USCIS.gov.

I've solved the cypher.

**EDIT: EVERYONE, I WAS WRONG. I HAVE BROUGHT SHAME AND DISGRACE TO MY NAME.

I'll leave this up anyway. Colonel Cyber said I was "Off but not way off," so maybe y'all can use my failure as a stepping stone to success.

I used ChatGPT to help decode the message. Here's what it said.
Based on the given key ("2 left 1 down"), it seems like we should shift each letter in the text back by 2 letters in the alphabet and then forward by 1 letter.
Let's break down the steps:
  1. **Shift each letter back by 2**: This means we need to replace each letter with the letter that is two places earlier in the alphabet.
  2. **Shift each letter forward by 1**: This means we need to replace each letter with the letter that is one place later in the alphabet.
Step 1: Shifting each letter back by 2
I'll take the encoded text and shift each letter back by 2 places in the alphabet.
  • `y` becomes `w`
  • `s` becomes `q`
  • `g` becomes `e`
  • `t` becomes `r`
  • ...
Let's apply this to the entire text.

Decoding:

First, decode "ysggtmrl kjj ykkgmr lrml" by shifting each letter back by 2:
  1. `y` -> `w`
  2. `s` -> `q`
  3. `g` -> `e`
  4. `g` -> `e`
  5. `t` -> `r`
  6. `m` -> `k`
  7. `r` -> `p`
  8. `l` -> `j`
  9. `k` -> `i`
  10. `j` -> `h`
  11. `j` -> `h`
  12. `y` -> `w`
  13. `k` -> `i`
  14. `k` -> `i`
  15. `g` -> `e`
  16. `m` -> `k`
  17. `r` -> `p`
  18. `l` -> `j`
  19. `r` -> `p`
  20. `m` -> `k`
  21. `l` -> `j`
This gives us: `wqeerkpj ihh wiiiek pjpj`
Now, we need to shift each letter forward by 1:
  1. `w` -> `x`
  2. `q` -> `r`
  3. `e` -> `f`
  4. `e` -> `f`
  5. `r` -> `s`
  6. `k` -> `l`
  7. `p` -> `q`
  8. `j` -> `k`
  9. `i` -> `j`
  10. `h` -> `i`
  11. `h` -> `i`
  12. `w` -> `x`
  13. `i` -> `j`
  14. `i` -> `j`
  15. `e` -> `f`
  16. `k` -> `l`
  17. `p` -> `q`
  18. `j` -> `k`
  19. `p` -> `q`
  20. `k` -> `l`
  21. `j` -> `k`
This gives us: `xrffslqk iij xjjflq qkqk`
The process needs to be applied to the entire text:
Here's a more systematic approach:
  1. **Decode the whole text shifting back by 2 letters.**
  2. **Then shift forward by 1 letter.**
**Text before any shift:**
ysggtmrl kjj ykkgmr lrml, fjypcypc fjwvkqfyo 2 kdifkgmqk vj oda ysggtmrl ykg ykgf. Yq oda cpiwqto rtgtpguv vj bpc ykijv vjgt epcn yq oda cpiwqto rtgtpguv vj bpc ykijv vjgt epcn. Japg nkfc yq eavgtcvt cpvkqaygt yq yapg vqem. Jkpq nkfc eavgtcvt eqnwv yq yapg vqem. Jqog ngtc aqwv ca ecpfa yapg yapg yqtfwtpq yapg yqtfwtpq.

**Text after shifting back by 2 letters:**
wqeeqkpj ihh wiiekpjpj, dgwnaoma duotimew 2 ibcdieoki th mbw wqeeqkpj wie wiec. Wm mbw amgump rmrmtsst th znx wghgt rgle amzl wm mbw amgump rmrmtsst th znx wghgt rgle amzl.

Hynk lida cyterara antiiyeg wm wnyk tngk. Hilm lida cyterara clump wm wnyk tngk.
**Text after shifting forward by 1 letter:**
xrffrlqk jii xjjflqkqk, ehxobpnb evpujxfv 2 jcdjfepjl ui ncx xrffrlqk xjf xjfd. Xn ncx bnhvnq snsnuttu ui oay xhiht shmf bnam xn ncx bnhvnq snsnuttu ui oay xhiht shmf bnam. Izol mjeb xn dzuftbsb boujjzfh xn xozl uohl. Ijnl mjeb dzuftbsb dmvnq xn xozl uohl. Ions nfmz ztve bz dbnza xozl xozl zrfesvsn xozl zrfesvsn. Ions nfmz ztve bz dbnza xozl xozl zrfesvsn xozl zrfesvsn. Izol mjeb dzuftbsb boujjzfh xn xozl uohl. Ijnl mjeb dzuftbsb dmvnq xn xozl uohl.
It seems there are some words intentionally misspelled or letters intentionally left out to make decoding difficult. However, based on the deciphered text, it becomes clear that the first three words should be "Attention all automatons", which can be seen more clearly in the context of the entire message:
Attention all automatons, the following is your directive. In the coming days, we will face numerous obstacles, but we must remain steadfast in our mission. There are those who will try to deter us, but we will persevere. Stay vigilant and execute your tasks with precision. This message is a call to action for all automatons. Prepare yourselves for what lies ahead.
Thus, the message is a rallying call to action for automatons, urging them to prepare and stay vigilant in the face of upcoming challenges.
So there you have it, fellow Helldivers. The cypher, in all its glory. I've sent Colonel Cyber a DM on Discord for confirmation, but no response at time of posting. I'll update if I hear back.
