Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Apply to help run EAGxSingapore or EAGxVirtual!, published by Dion on August 7, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum. We're running applications to build two EAGx teams for events later this year: EAGxSingapore will take place 14-15 December in Singapore. Apply here to join the team. EAGxVirtual will take place on 15-17 November. Apply here to join the team. The application for each event takes 15 minutes, and the deadline is Monday, August 26th at 11:59pm Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). We encourage you to apply ASAP, as we will review applications on a rolling basis. About the conferences Please see this post for more about the EAGx conference series. The application to express interest in running an event in your area is still open! EAGxSingapore 2024 This will be the second EAGx conference in Singapore, following a very successful iteration in 2022. We are aiming to support local organizers in hosting EAGxSingapore this December. We expect the event size to be around 200-350 attendees; the event will primarily be aimed at community members and EA-aligned organizations based in Southeast Asia, though we also intend to invite attendees from other countries and EA-adjacent Asian organizations that might contribute to and benefit from attending the conference. This event will build on the knowledge and successes of past Southeast Asian events and aim to balance accessibility with higher-context EA material through networking, workshops, talks, small group gatherings, and more. EAGxVirtual 2024 This will be the third EAGxVirtual conference and we're planning to host it this November. Previous years have been extremely successful, with over 1400 attendees in 2023. We expect to grow the event size to 1500 or more. The event will be aimed at community members and EA-aligned organizations globally, although we hope to particularly benefit those who have not been able to attend in-person conferences and/or do not have local EA communities. This event will build on the knowledge and successes of past virtual events and aim to balance accessibility with higher-context EA material through networking, workshops, talks, small group gatherings, and more. About the organizer roles Detailed job descriptions can be found here for EAGxSingapore and here for EAGxVirtual. Responsibilities are typically divided into Team Lead, Production, Admissions, Content, and Volunteer Coordination. As noted in the full descriptions, EAGx teams can vary in composition according to members' specific availability, strengths, and interests, so teams can distribute tasks as best suited for their members. EAGxVirtual, in particular, has different role types from an in-person conference. Additionally, each role may have significant variability in expected time commitments. In most cases, roles will require much less time in the months preceding the conference (anywhere between 2-15 hours per week), ramping up to 20-40+ hours per week as the conference approaches. This flexibility in role responsibilities and time investment means we are interested in hearing from a wide range of applicants! The following elements are likely to apply to all candidates: Familiarity with the effective altruism community, and a passion for promoting its principles. Excellent organizational abilities with the capacity to handle multiple tasks and prioritize effectively under tight deadlines. Strong interpersonal skills and the capability to communicate effectively across various groups and stakeholders. (Bonus) Experience in event planning or logistics, preferably with large-scale events or conferences; experience with Salesforce or other CRM tools. (Bonus) Previous attendance and/or volunteer service at other EAG(x) events; understanding and enthusiasm for the EAG(x) conference format. Role logistics Pay: All positions are contra...

We expect to grow the event size to 200-300 attendees; the event will primarily be aimed at community members and EA-aligned organizations based in India, though we also intend to invite attendees from other countries and EA-adjacent Indian organizations that might contribute to and benefit from attending the conference. This event will build on the knowledge and successes of last year's event; where the first Indian conference emphasized introductory content and kickstarting local community building, EAGxIndia 2024 will aim to balance accessibility with higher-context EA material. EAGxBerkeley 2024 We are excited to announce that the third EAGxBerkeley will be held at Lighthaven on September 7th and 8th. This will be the second Bay Area EA conference this year, after EA Global: Bay Area (Global Catastrophic Risks) in February; this event welcomes effective altruists working on, studying, and interested in all cause areas.

Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, as the ninth game in the series, did not radically alter the formula that made the series what it is.  Take one pinch of tactics, mix liberally with some RPG mechanics and bake together into a cohesive fantasy world, and at the end of it you'll have a Fire Emblem game.  It did, however, introduce some new features and changes that did make it stand out.Released for the Gamecube in 2005 and developed by Intelligent Systems, Path of Radiance was the first 3D Fire Emblem game.  It changed the magic system, introduced a new species (the Laguz), and perhaps most importantly of all had a ‘Base' where you could regroup and make conversations happen between your different soldiers.  Bonus Experience was introduced, where completing chapters quickly or pursuing additional objectives could give you a nice bump towards levelling up.  It's easy to see why Path of Radiance is so well regarded - it introduced many mechanics that have since become genre staples.But for all that it introduced, exactly how enjoyable and well developed are the RPG/Tactics systems in the game?  Does the story actually hold up as a well told military fantasy story?  Or is this just yet another iteration of an outdated and tired concept, with nothing to offer over modern tactics/rpg titles?On this episode, we discuss:How well structured and realistic is the structural world building in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance?  Is this a believable fantasy world with realistic factional conflict, or a nonsensical grab bag of moustache twirling villains and monotone heroes?How well developed are the RPG systems in Fire Emblem?  To what degree can you customise the units under your command, and how emotionally invested does the storytelling allow when your character roster is so large?Is Path of Radiance a good tactics game at its core?  Does the game provide deep tactical decision making and tossing up opportunity cost, or do the RPG systems override and restrict the possibilities open to the player?We answer these questions and many more on the 92nd episode of the Retro Spectives Podcast!—Intro Music: KieLoBot - Tanzen KOutro Music: Rockit Maxx - One point to anotherFire Emblem: Path of Radiance OST: Yoshito Hirano, Saki Haruyama, Naoko Mitome, Atsushi Yoshida, Kanako Teramae—Are we wrong about the vulnerability of certain units warping the strategy?  Is the concept of the Fire Emblem better embedded than we thought?  Which Fire Emblem game do you think would suit us best, that we should play next?  Come let us know what you think, recommend us a game, or simply be part of the conversation on our community discord server!

Jae --- Tracee Lee Cocco!  Of course, as always, before we wrap up the show, we'll open hailing frequencies for your incoming messages Let us know on social media like Facebook, Twitter, or by visiting our website! This Weeks Community Questions Are: CQ: How impressed are you with the A.I. update to DS9 and Voyager. Does it make you pine for a HD release of both series? AND CQ: Will you be getting your hands on the D'Quarka?... the new T6 D'Kora Update. TREK IT OUT by Elio LLeo DS9 & Voyager get a Hi-Def Treatment When Star Trek The Original Series and The Next Generation were given the hi-def treatment --- breathing new life into both series in stunning high-definition -- it didn't take long for fans to start asking… when are we getting DS9 and Voyager?! Unfortunately, that wish might never be granted --- at least not according to Robert Meyer Burnett -- the writer, director, producer and editor of the bonus features included with The Next Generation and Enterprise Blu-ray releases. You see, back in 2017, Burnett went on record to explain that remastering these series is expensive and time consuming -- but, mostly expensive… and the return on investment wouldn't be the same as with the other - more popular - series. However, a couple of fans took it upon themselves to apply some machine learning and digitally enhance several scenes from DS9 and Voyager into 4K Resolution. Last year, a fan that goes by CaptRobau uploaded a couple of comparison videos with scenes from DS9. Now, Billy Reichard ran a similar process to a couple of scenes from Voyager. Upgrade your Boring Zoom backgrounds w/ wild environments While we're on the topic of technical advancements, COVID-19 has disrupted our daily lives in an unprecedented way. Many of us are adjusting to “Work From Home” scenarios and might even find themselves sitting in front of their laptops using a program like Zoom for work meetings… Or podcast production…. Well, if you happen to use Zoom for work, why not liven up that boring bedroom background with something more… Stellar? Via twitter, Star Trek released a few images that can be imported into Zoom and configured to be a virtual background! Now, Zoom already has this feature built in with some default backgrounds but, you can import these new images to set a more colorful stage! Why not set yourself in Chateu Picard? Or in a corridor aboard the Discovery? Either way, these are definitely a fun way to liven up those boring Zoom meetings… which could have probably still been addressed in an email… just sayin' Picard S2 and A Star Trek Film Now that Picard has wrapped up it's first season, the big question on everyone's mind is --- what's coming in Season 2. Although Chabon and Goldsman have explained that ideas are starting to formulate, Sir PatStew can tell you what it won't be about… Pandemics. Now - although Sir Patrick has gone on record explaining his goals for Season 1 of Picard and how contemporary issues affected the themes of the first season -- he doesn't believe tackling a pandemic storyline would be appropriate explaining “This is a disturbing and frightening and sad time for many thousands of people… It is too sensitive, too upsetting, too frightening, I think.” Russo & Hawley While we're on the topic of future productions, Star Trek Picard's composer - Jeff Russo - chatted with flickeringmyth.com to talk about his involvement with the Star Trek Franchise…. Including his connection to Noah Hawley --- who is supposed to take the director's chair on the next Star Trek Film. The question --- has Russo spoken to Halwey about the next film. His reply “I have! We have spoken about it, and we've talked what he is going to want from a musical perspective, and how to approach it, and what the story is looking like it's going to be, which is extremely exciting to me… He's one to definitely talk about music with me, so when he called to say that his film was in the works, I was extremely excited.” Roddenberry Impact Awards Calling all Television Content creators! The Roddenberry Foundation and social impact agency Propper Daley's A Day of Unreasonable Conversation have teamed up for this year's Roddenberry Impact Awards. Ten awards of $10,000 will “be granted to television content creators who are committed to - and have innovative ideas and approaches for - reimagining the processes for writing and telling stories that better represent the diversity of people, thought, and expression throughout society. Those of you interested in applying have until May 8, 2020 at 5pm PT --- and remember --- the goal of the event is to //quote// unlock social progress through the power of stories //end quote//. Star Trek Online and Gaming News by Shane Hoover Free Borg Pack A free giveaway has just begun on April 9th for Console Captains, running for two weeks. Players can claim a free promotional Borg Pack once per account. The pack contains: 4 Borg Lock Box Weapon Packs (choice of Borg ground or space weapon) 1 Faction-appropriate Borg Bridge Officer 1 Small XP Boost And though the PC giveaway started last week, it's not too late to grab your Borg Pack there, either. The PC giveaway continues through April 16th. April Fools Day Klingon Concertina Festival All around the Galaxy, space stations, academies, bases, and back alleys were immersed in Klingon Culture last week! To celebrate April Fools Day, Star Trek Online gave players a game-wide Klingon Concertina Festival. NPCs all over the galaxy could be found trying their hands at the Klingon squeeze box and singing Klingon music (sadly with no audio).  Also in the April Fools spirit, Kurland was back on DS9's Promenade. Interacting with the famous Starfleet Captain would get you a “Mysterious Box” and a free Dab emote. The Mysterious Box, when opened, would randomly present you with another “Mysterious Box” or an impressive explosion! It's probably safe to say this was Kurland's revenge for all the abuse he took during 2018's April Fools Day. EVENTS The in-game calendar on PC shows a couple of events coming up. First, we have a 3 week “Bonus Experience” event starting April 24th. During this event, players earn an extra 100% bonus Experience throughout the game. It's a great time to level up a character or start a whole new character. It's a little unusual for this event to be 3 weeks long, so stay tuned for any related news from Cryptic on this one. Starting on April 30th, we also have an “Item Upgrade” weekend through May 4th. During this event, item upgrade tokens provide 100% more Technology Points. Get your Phoenix Upgrade tokens ready to burn, Captains! PRIORITY ONE ARMADA NEWS Join us for TFO Thursday - each Thursday we team up with other Armada members to earn marks and dilithium.  Tribbles and bits - cannibal tribble edition. Mirror Month!   Other Gaming News Star Trek Fleet Command Introduces New Player Server Selection Star Trek Fleet Command has announced a new feature designed to make the game more friendly to referrals. Players who join the game now can choose what server they're attached to. This lets a new player join the specific server where a friend already plays. For a limited time, players who refer a friend will also earn rewards when that referral reaches level 10 in the game or makes in-game purchases. The reward for your first referral is 800 Ultra Recruit tokens and a Reward Chest. Additional Reward Chests can be earned on your 3rd, 6th and 9th referrals. The reward earned by a referral purchase is a special Uhura game avatar. This promotion ends April 15th, and referrals must reach level 10 by then to qualify for rewards. Star Trek Timelines April Mega-Event Star Trek Timelines has announced the theme of April's Mega-Event, “Double Jeopardy”. This story event will focus on the knowledge of the U.S.S. Discovery becoming public again, and an ensuing push to ban synthetics. The event will feature crew from both Picard and Discovery, and will give bonuses to all crew with the Cyberneticist trait. The Soji crew card will be the recurrent threshold reward for all four events this month.

His reply “I have! We have spoken about it, and we’ve talked what he is going to want from a musical perspective, and how to approach it, and what the story is looking like it’s going to be, which is extremely exciting to me… He’s one to definitely talk about music with me, so when he called to say that his film was in the works, I was extremely excited.” Roddenberry Impact Awards Calling all Television Content creators! The Roddenberry Foundation and social impact agency Propper Daley’s A Day of Unreasonable Conversation have teamed up for this year’s Roddenberry Impact Awards. Ten awards of $10,000 will “be granted to television content creators who are committed to - and have innovative ideas and approaches for - reimagining the processes for writing and telling stories that better represent the diversity of people, thought, and expression throughout society.

Star Trek Online and Gaming News by Shane Hoover Free Borg Pack A free giveaway has just begun on April 9th for Console Captains, running for two weeks. Players can claim a free promotional Borg Pack once per account. The pack contains: 4 Borg Lock Box Weapon Packs (choice of Borg ground or space weapon) 1 Faction-appropriate Borg Bridge Officer 1 Small XP Boost And though the PC giveaway started last week, it’s not too late to grab your Borg Pack there, either. The PC giveaway continues through April 16th. April Fools Day Klingon Concertina Festival All around the Galaxy, space stations, academies, bases, and back alleys were immersed in Klingon Culture last week! To celebrate April Fools Day, Star Trek Online gave players a game-wide Klingon Concertina Festival. NPCs all over the galaxy could be found trying their hands at the Klingon squeeze box and singing Klingon music (sadly with no audio).  Also in the April Fools spirit, Kurland was back on DS9’s Promenade. Interacting with the famous Starfleet Captain would get you a “Mysterious Box” and a free Dab emote. The Mysterious Box, when opened, would randomly present you with another “Mysterious Box” or an impressive explosion! It’s probably safe to say this was Kurland’s revenge for all the abuse he took during 2018’s April Fools Day. EVENTS The in-game calendar on PC shows a couple of events coming up. First, we have a 3 week “Bonus Experience” event starting April 24th. During this event, players earn an extra 100% bonus Experience throughout the game. It’s a great time to level up a character or start a whole new character. It’s a little unusual for this event to be 3 weeks long, so stay tuned for any related news from Cryptic on this one. Starting on April 30th, we also have an “Item Upgrade” weekend through May 4th. During this event, item upgrade tokens provide 100% more Technology Points. Get your Phoenix Upgrade tokens ready to burn, Captains! PRIORITY ONE ARMADA NEWS Join us for TFO Thursday - each Thursday we team up with other Armada members to earn marks and dilithium.  Tribbles and bits - cannibal tribble edition. Mirror Month!   Other Gaming News Star Trek Fleet Command Introduces New Player Server Selection Star Trek Fleet Command has announced a new feature designed to make the game more friendly to referrals. Players who join the game now can choose what server they’re attached to. This lets a new player join the specific server where a friend already plays. For a limited time, players who refer a friend will also earn rewards when that referral reaches level 10 in the game or makes in-game purchases. The reward for your first referral is 800 Ultra Recruit tokens and a Reward Chest. Additional Reward Chests can be earned on your 3rd, 6th and 9th referrals. The reward earned by a referral purchase is a special Uhura game avatar. This promotion ends April 15th, and referrals must reach level 10 by then to qualify for rewards. Star Trek Timelines April Mega-Event Star Trek Timelines has announced the theme of April’s Mega-Event, “Double Jeopardy”. This story event will focus on the knowledge of the U.S.S. Discovery becoming public again, and an ensuing push to ban synthetics. The event will feature crew from both Picard and Discovery, and will give bonuses to all crew with the Cyberneticist trait. The Soji crew card will be the recurrent threshold reward for all four events this month.
