extractionmech

You are just full of strawmen and not a single coherent sentence. My mind is in perfect working order. Yours looks like it needs a tuneup and an education.

They have been fantasizing and publishing tomes on the topic for decades. Educate yourself. [<- not regarding your spelling in case it is not clear]

> a new form of what we call colonialism

I call this auto-colonialism. Certainly in the West (if not globally since as we know our “owners and masters” just met in Davos) there is clearly a super-layer that went ‘transnational’ and has been extracting wealth from its own people. And speaking of “own people” this is precisely why they do not give a flying F about “cultural heritage” and anything whatsoever that ‘conditions mind’ (such as national myths) that is not under their narrative control.

If you study history, you will note that the elite have always used mind control means to lord it over the masses. Our current crop can not even claim ‘noble blood’ or anything remotely like that so their strategy of exploitive rule is to pyschologically confuse (and upset) the subject population.

I’ll give you an example. The memes around certain words that were/are directly targeting the sexual vulnerabilities of white(-ish) young men, coupled with pornographic content to reinforce these social and sexual vulnerabilities. I mean, if I wanted to create ultra right wing shock troops, that is what I would do.

We’re being played. We’re being fucked with. Because the elite know they can not tell us the full scope of their ‘progressive plans’ for controlling their cattle on Human plantation.

So they have us fighing each other. It works. [edit: see sibling comments. The discussion immediately turns into a polarization around secondary effects, such as ‘welfare benefits’, etc. Meanwhile they are laughing their way to the bank. Oh wait, they own the banks ..]

p.s. am imigrant myself. Even I am upset at what they are doing to my new Western homeland. After all, I came here precisely for the cultural heritage that the elite decided to destroy over the past 3 decades. Ever since USSR fell...

> On the other hand, cooling at the microscopic level involves the release of energy from individual particles, resulting in a dampening of their motion. This process corresponds to the system losing energy, leading to a decrease in the intensity of particle movement.

It actually makes sense, doesn’t it? Heating the object adds energy constructively. In cooling, energy removed from one particle may in fact be absorbed again by neighboring particles, so it is not ‘efficient’. So I’d venture a guess at saying the object cools from outside until it is entirely cooled.

There appears to be a manufacturing issue at Boeing. Missing bolts is not a design matter.

That extra layer of indirection, virtual queues, is key.

/g for grin. /G big grin that shows teeth

Well, this is an interesting spin. Sweetheart, the fight is over who is ‘controlling’ the “vital” sea lanes. Haven’t you gotten the memo?

Land Khans have declared war on Sea Lords. All else is b.s. This is it.

The issue is that New York decided as a strategy to rely on tourism revenue - it has nothing to do with “millenials”. I remember working as an intern building models for the disney land of 42nd street. Yes the models were cheesy (go take a look) but I mean anyone here remember Times Square before? That was one serious cesspool and I say this as a confirmed fan of late 80s New York, you know the city that your mom and dad were afraid to visit? (Anyone here remember having beers on the stoop outside of Finneli’s on Prince? AfterHours Soho was awesome..)

No one is afraid anymore so the ‘filter’ that selected ‘confirmed urbanites’ was lifted. The city reflects its new demographics. The OP and myself and the rest of urbanite that got a ‘buzz’ just walking in the city now mostly decamp to Brooklyn.

Speaking of Brooklyn, I must register my public approval of gentrification of Williamsburg. I actually lived in Williamsburg when the only (only) sign of civilization was a bagel shop next to the L. But let’s take Domino Park. That’s not ugly, is it?

So, two items: Money, and Taste. Now we people of ‘taste’ were priced out of Manhattan. And now you have what you have.

Let’s blame Giulliani for this. I never liked the man /g

tldr: “cars that look like renderings”

Good one. Yes, they gifted us with priesthoods. For that matter, banksters learned from Mesopotamians, so. But we’re discussing evil incorporated post enlightenment (where? lol) here.

England has always been the first nation to suffer the designs of the elite. The bankster system, first in Britain. The secret services that have “license to kill”, ditto. A show for parliament and representation, the same. Emergence of a new elite class that wields power behind the throne, England. Political churches passed as churches of God, England. Surveillance and police state, England. 1984, also from England. Somebody in that Island knows where it is all heading.

p.s. and how could I forget. “Journalism” fleet street style, also England.

This is basically semantic pruning.

Maybe they have a secret client. I mean someone must be doing this for our side. If not them then who?

can you do a concise +/- on FDB? I’ve always thought it was a fantastic architecture but never tried it. tia

Appreciate the reply. Hope you get it out soon since many /g do not read documentation and synchronized semantics changing is a ‘surprise’, specially since this one of those bugs that is a nursery for heisenbugs.

It’s a thread that supports n virtual threads. You want synchronized in virtual thread a and not the carrier thread which will block all the virtual threads.

Been away from Java land for a while. How did something like that even get into release? That’s like a pretty big loaded shotgun to leave lying around with lots of kids playing, no?

thanks.

that’s exactly what the perms are right now. question I am asking, since I have always blindly trusted No Script, is how “accessing browser activity during navigation” related to the simple job of blocking scripts from domain x? And now it wants ip address info too? Why? Keep in mind it worked all these years without additional perms. Most of those are from the last expanded permissions.

HighSierra running FF 72.0.2

It wants perm to “Access ip address and host information”. Why does no script want this?

ps: just checking and it already has in FF

+ Access your data for all websites

+ Access browser tabs

+ Store unlimited amount of client-side data

+ Access browser activity during navigation

???

Is this all OK?

“Me no likee” - Joseph Agassi

This post of yours sent me looking for this and I ended up with (now reading) Agassi’s provocative (& brutal) takedown of this book. As to the content of the book, Agassi pointedly mentioned Weiner. I will of course read Weizenbaum after this. (thanks.)

p.s. continuing on, the review turns very positive. Initial vitriol apparently more related to the “two worlds” matter.

The ancients reached for divination methods when reason failed them. You on the other hand can write a quick python script with a random number source in it.

ignoring various questionable details here, the one main point is correct: Boeing and Airbus are strategic industrial assets of USA vs EU and have deep implications for strategic security for both US and EU and their clients. For example, servicing these machines provides access to sensitive infrastructure all over the planet to these two companies’ employees & “certified” 3rd party consultants. If you are sitting say in UAE, buying Boeing vs AirBus is a political decision as well as a practical decision.

If you parse it, he is actually saying 2 things:

1: “very well”: methodology can help those without software design talent. You should stick to it if you know you can’t design software.

2: “don’t know”: Design can be learned but for the lazy there is methodology.

Those buildings were covered in sooth and ugly to look at when Modernism was being born. Have you seen photos of London before the great cleaning? It looks like a dark pit. 21st century arm chair design crit needs to ‘contextualize’* its criticism..

ex: *they were not easy to clean. Modern was easy to clean.

Bless you Walter, you are a positive man. Let’s “hope” so buddy.
