📨Forever Progression

Self-Sovereign Computing — Mon, 20 Jul 2026 10:02:36 +0000

Your digital belongings will always have your marks🐾, and your marks are always yours.

A usable, decentralized, portable, but not elegant way to save your progression after shutting down your media player. No internet required. No dependency on single device. Move your media files with your unique marks🐾 everywhere.

When will I need this?

You are watching a video locally on your phone, but you are unsatisfied with your experience with it, so you decide to continue your journey with your video on your computer, or even on your VR devices.
You are going to migrate your device, and you find your local player has saved your progression or some other interaction history elsewhere, fragmented in a mess ִֶָ𓂃 ࣪˖ ִֶָ་༘࿐ (you aren't sure if you are copying the right files because they are black-boxes)
You are listening to a deep talk, but something interrupt you. You don't have time or even forget to save your progression manually. This situation has troubled you for a long time. # What this project offers? Conventionally, a file simply records facts with raw media loyally, but what does it mean to me? I have interacted with it, and how can I see my bonds with it safely? Can I leave something only belong to me on it?

Starting from this idea, this project integrates your files with the bonds between the files and you into one single file. New File Extensions .dc* are created, where dc means decentralized.

As you wish, migrating with just one single file that evidenced your existence is enough. Just carry this .dc* file to seamlessly resume playback on any device equipped with VLC and the project script, without requiring an internet connection or having to manage a clutter of scattered files. One single file is sufficient.

Installation

For windows:

Firstly, install VLC via

store install xpdm1zw6815mqm

Then, set up a bat or cmd file

@echo off
python DecentralizedPlayer.py %1

Use this bat or cmd file to open any media supported by VLC! A Decentralized file will be created for you. You can use this Decentralized file WITHOUT copying the raw media file to continue your focused mind flows and digital stories everywhere. E.g., you have example.mp4, this project will convert it into example.dcmp4 the first time you open it. Then, you can ignore or even delete the example.mp4 completely. Move one file is enough. No need to settle a mess of files.

Requirements will be automatically satisfied (they are: python-vlc, pynput), with one download.

Warm Up Usage

Terminate the media by Escape (fine-grained saving), or just closing it. Use Space or Enter to pause. Press Left or Right to control your progress by 1 second.

We have diagnosed the Great Filter of Human Civilization via Marxism. It is NOT the AI itself. It is NOT about asteroids, UFOs, or something else. But it is composed of three Internal and Spiritual shadows that are Darkening our future. They are:

Surveillance Capitalism - Building an ecosystem to Shape People's Unhealthy Habits, Profiting from them, and Eating your Sovereignty
Technofeudalism - Making Money from you but not giving Sustainable Money to you, building Disparity between a global minority of Extravagant Spenders and a global majority of Striving People
Infinitely Amusing People to Death - undermining people's Agency and Will, making people never think about Our Future and Our Universe, thereby annihilating the Vitality of Human Civilization

These three dark powers are Cross-Border. They are all Alienating people from what makes you real. If they are out of control, the countdown to a heart attack of Human Civilization will not be far from us, as that sort of civilization is vulnerable to any external shocks.

It's never destined to be. It shall never destined to be. This is Self-Sovereign Computing, whose mission is to break these 3 cycles and to grow Vitality to our Destiny, focusing on Technical and Cultural means. It is a pleasure everyone here, you and us, united, shares the same mission and dream. We are Intention Economy & Individual-Collective Mutual Empowerment (ICME) Culture builders, trying to reclaim our clear spirits and grow the vitality of human culture. Even if we don't look up, the starry sky is watching over us forever.
