| schestowitz-pi | but... | Sep 18 16:26 |
| schestowitz-pi | depends | Sep 18 16:26 |
| techrights-sec5 | THe state has been shrinking mostly due to defunding of anthing | Sep 18 16:28 |
| techrights-sec5 | that would make it attractive to new families. Combine that with the | Sep 18 16:28 |
| techrights-sec5 | active elimination of jobs, and the state is emptying. | Sep 18 16:28 |
| schestowitz-pi | https://milanmich.org/water_quality/index.php | Sep 18 16:30 |
| schestowitz-pi | they have water towers in usa? | Sep 18 16:30 |
| schestowitz-pi | i am still surprised with over-the-ground electric wiring | Sep 18 16:30 |
| schestowitz-pi | they really need to upcycle | Sep 18 16:30 |
| schestowitz-pi | defunding forces lovers of the community, places, culture to go elsewhere | Sep 18 16:30 |
| schestowitz-pi | for jobs at least | Sep 18 16:30 |
| schestowitz-pi | very sad | Sep 18 16:30 |

| techrights-sec5 | It was a really good movie unlike his Columbine movie | Sep 18 16:36 |
| techrights-sec5 | There was a single showing of the anti-Nazi movie Blood in the Face | Sep 18 16:36 |
| techrights-sec5 | in the whole state. He wrote that he was there. So I saw him and | Sep 18 16:36 |
| techrights-sec5 | did not know it. The into was by someone with a dual comp sci / film studies | Sep 18 16:36 |
| techrights-sec5 | program who became a mentor at work, back when they tried the mentoring | Sep 18 16:36 |
| techrights-sec5 | thing. He was a heavy user of the mainframe at a time when I had already | Sep 18 16:36 |
| techrights-sec5 | jumped onto UNIX though. It seems, like many graduating that year in | Sep 18 16:36 |
| techrights-sec5 | comp sci, that he became independently wealthy. | Sep 18 16:36 |
| techrights-sec5 | Anyway, MM mortgaged his own house to make the Roger and Me film. | Sep 18 16:36 |
| schestowitz-pi | givinh up money and assets for ideaological reasons is a mark of principled person | Sep 18 16:40 |
| schestowitz-pi | inependnely wealth != ethically wealthy | Sep 18 16:40 |
| schestowitz-pi | (talkinmg to the choir) wealthy != smart of skilled | Sep 18 16:40 |
| schestowitz-pi | there can be overlaps | Sep 18 16:40 |
| techrights-sec5 | It is coming up on the 35th anniversary of the movie. | Sep 18 16:43 |
| techrights-sec5 | Correct. I have no idea how many of them gained wealth without severe | Sep 18 16:43 |
| techrights-sec5 | compromise to morals, ethics, values, etc. | Sep 18 16:43 |
| techrights-sec5 | Mikek (the film/cs guy) was very talented | Sep 18 16:43 |
| techrights-sec5 | He set up the web shop *and* payment system for what was the world's second | Sep 18 16:43 |
| techrights-sec5 | web shop. It's long gone now. Killed by Amazon. Even the site is gone and | Sep 18 16:43 |
| techrights-sec5 | the domain occupied by squatters now. | Sep 18 16:43 |
| techrights-sec5 | The shop sold hot sauce over the web at a time when it was in fashion, | Sep 18 16:43 |
| techrights-sec5 | Anyway, I recommend the movie, Roger and Me, if you can get it at | Sep 18 16:44 |
| techrights-sec5 | the library. The movie, Blood in the Face, despite noble intentions | Sep 18 16:44 |
| techrights-sec5 | was kind of a failure and not very good and rather ineffective. | Sep 18 16:44 |
| techrights-sec5 | I figure it set back the work against nazism noticeably by portraying them | Sep 18 16:44 |
| techrights-sec5 | as harmless clowns instead of reporting the real situation at the time | Sep 18 16:44 |
| techrights-sec5 | and their growth in danger and increase in economic and political strength | Sep 18 16:44 |
| schestowitz-pi | i am unable to comment on that | Sep 18 16:45 |
| techrights-sec5 | Howell, MI was / is a hotbed. Same with the other towns in an arc | Sep 18 16:45 |
| techrights-sec5 | outside Detroit. | Sep 18 16:45 |
| schestowitz-pi | my opion of usa culture is very negative, more so after 2003 | Sep 18 16:48 |
| schestowitz-pi | but my nephew is there playing football ("soccer") and my in law lost his job | Sep 18 16:48 |
| schestowitz-pi | went to a small one recently | Sep 18 16:48 |
| schestowitz-pi | didn't tell anyboby | Sep 18 16:48 |
| schestowitz-pi | usa is ok when you come from xyz | Sep 18 16:48 |
| schestowitz-pi | i'd never move there | Sep 18 16:48 |
| schestowitz-pi | i don't like the culture and people | Sep 18 16:48 |
| schestowitz-pi | i am too low tempered to cope there | Sep 18 16:48 |
| techrights-sec5 | Little Bush not only burned up all the goodwill that Europe held for the US | Sep 18 16:49 |
| techrights-sec5 | due to WWII, but even generated antipathy in the younger generations. That | Sep 18 16:49 |
| techrights-sec5 | is all his fault. | Sep 18 16:49 |
| techrights-sec5 | The culture has changed for the worse, drastically, in the last 25 years. | Sep 18 16:49 |
| techrights-sec5 | Furthermore, due to the fallout from the Reagan administration onward, | Sep 18 16:49 |
| techrights-sec5 | there are now *THREE* generations without basic education. Yes, you can | Sep 18 16:49 |
| techrights-sec5 | find exceptions, but they are just that exceptions. | Sep 18 16:49 |
| schestowitz-pi | even in 1998 the usa attitufe was off-putting to me | Sep 18 16:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | but the country was well off | Sep 18 16:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | before ther bubble went boom | Sep 18 16:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | i nearly applied for unis there | Sep 18 16:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | boston | Sep 18 16:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | my aunt sent me books and papers for it | Sep 18 16:51 |
| techrights-sec5 | Which one in Boston? | Sep 18 16:52 |
| techrights-sec5 | In the 1950s it was still economically feasible to have a clam bake on | Sep 18 16:52 |
| techrights-sec5 | the beach there. | Sep 18 16:52 |
| techrights-sec5 | In the 1950s it was still economically feasible to have a clam bake on | Sep 18 16:52 |
| techrights-sec5 | the beach there. Probably non-toxic enough, too | Sep 18 16:52 |
| schestowitz-pi | i did not get that far | Sep 18 16:53 |
| schestowitz-pi | only did 6 through ucas in uk | Sep 18 16:53 |
| schestowitz-pi | got accepted into 4 of them | Sep 18 16:53 |
| schestowitz-pi | i 'dodged the bullet' | Sep 18 16:53 |
| schestowitz-pi | no country is doing 'well' atm | Sep 18 16:53 |
| schestowitz-pi | psydroid says even oslo became a shithole of junkies | Sep 18 16:53 |
| techrights-sec5 | Getting an undergraduate degree in the US and then returning to the UK | Sep 18 16:54 |
| techrights-sec5 | for masters and PhD would have been a good combination | Sep 18 16:55 |
| techrights-sec5 | Not just junkies but also jihadis there in Oslo | Sep 18 16:55 |
| techrights-sec5 | Oh, if you were going to have to pay the tuition yourself then, no, I recind | Sep 18 16:55 |
| techrights-sec5 | the recommnedation. The debt is not worth it, even back then. | Sep 18 16:55 |
| schestowitz-pi | no, admissions/tuitions expensive in usa | Sep 18 16:56 |
| schestowitz-pi | (imp reminder: me choosing unis for CS was BEFORE the bubble burst) | Sep 18 16:56 |
| schestowitz-pi | it was at its peak | Sep 18 16:56 |
| schestowitz-pi | that's all in rhw past noqw | Sep 18 16:56 |
| schestowitz-pi | 2024 is a "different reality" | Sep 18 16:56 |
| schestowitz-pi | i enjoy simpler things | Sep 18 16:56 |
| schestowitz-pi | no RTO by CEO from BezosInc. | Sep 18 16:56 |
| schestowitz-pi | i have family there | Sep 18 16:57 |
| schestowitz-pi | she hates the place | Sep 18 16:57 |
| techrights-sec5 | Before peak was still good, at peak was ok. Then the microsofters showed | Sep 18 16:57 |
| techrights-sec5 | up and tore it all down -- everywhere. | Sep 18 16:57 |
| techrights-sec5 | Can she escape? | Sep 18 16:57 |
| schestowitz-pi | maybe too late now | Sep 18 16:59 |
| schestowitz-pi | before peak many things were different | Sep 18 16:59 |
| schestowitz-pi | not just MSFT aspects | Sep 18 16:59 |
| schestowitz-pi | but. | Sep 18 16:59 |
| schestowitz-pi | where to begin...? | Sep 18 16:59 |
| schestowitz-pi | ryan and others recall in irc | Sep 18 16:59 |
| schestowitz-pi | 80s and 90s | Sep 18 16:59 |
| schestowitz-pi | many things were... different | Sep 18 16:59 |
| schestowitz-pi | now you talk to people whose eyes are in their "pockets" ('phones') | Sep 18 16:59 |
| schestowitz-pi | and cannot even read numbers on a cash register | Sep 18 16:59 |
| techrights-sec5 | The worst part is that the 1980s sucked and there was only a little let up | Sep 18 17:01 |
| techrights-sec5 | in the 1990s for a few years. The decline started with the Reagan | Sep 18 17:01 |
| techrights-sec5 | administration, | Sep 18 17:01 |
| techrights-sec5 | That, again, goes back to *THREE* generations without education. | Sep 18 17:01 |
| techrights-sec5 | That means that not even a kid's grandparents can show them or tell them better. | Sep 18 17:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | in 2003 i got job offer in cs in london | Sep 18 17:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | but it was dodgy to me | Sep 18 17:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | friends said do phd | Sep 18 17:01 |
| schestowitz-pi | i asked many friends who were very very smart | Sep 18 17:02 |
| schestowitz-pi | and wrote down a pdf witrh the decision tree | Sep 18 17:02 |
| schestowitz-pi | i still have it | Sep 18 17:02 |
| schestowitz-pi | then in 2007 i was finishing the phd and the economy was sinking again | Sep 18 17:02 |
| techrights-sec5 | PhD was probably still a smarter move. | Sep 18 17:02 |
| techrights-sec5 | yes keyword: again | Sep 18 17:02 |
| techrights-sec5 | another keyword: on purpose | Sep 18 17:02 |
| schestowitz-pi | key facts: | Sep 18 17:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | - must think ahead 4 decades, not 4 years | Sep 18 17:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | unless you expect cancer at 30 or something | Sep 18 17:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | my dsd and i discussed in swiss trains around 2000 the shift to india for cs | Sep 18 17:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | it had already begun | Sep 18 17:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | they can work 60 hours/week for less pay | Sep 18 17:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | they can do anything | Sep 18 17:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | - the economy has many "red flags" and many "kick teh can down the road some more" | Sep 18 17:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | - some personal aspects, less relwevant here | Sep 18 17:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | cs now is, as andy put it in the draft, something else | Sep 18 17:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | as also covered in "Clown Computing" | Sep 18 17:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | i like how he frames it | Sep 18 17:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | and he likes TR a lot | Sep 18 17:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | he takes ideas from us | Sep 18 17:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | he likes talking to rianne - it's another POV | Sep 18 17:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | cs is not "coming back" | Sep 18 17:05 |
| schestowitz-pi | rianne is probably one of the very feww 'freesw purist' girls | Sep 18 17:06 |
| schestowitz-pi | and veggetarian etc - not that it's related - but it did make her happy | Sep 18 17:06 |
| schestowitz-pi | today was lots of fun - better than expected - she's back at 9pm, i pick her up near the stadium at halftime | Sep 18 17:06 |
| schestowitz-pi | btw, TFA can be done over landline | Sep 18 17:08 |
| schestowitz-pi | they don't advertise it | Sep 18 17:08 |
| schestowitz-pi | but it got done ok | Sep 18 17:08 |
| schestowitz-pi | many ways to bypass - like that polish student who graduated without propr' sw | Sep 18 17:08 |
| schestowitz-pi | iirc, it was you who sent link re .sw trying to -de-deigitalise yough | Sep 18 17:08 |
| schestowitz-pi | will they only admit the recognise the harm done, too? like surgeon general in usa? | Sep 18 17:08 |
| techrights-sec5 | I really wish it could somehow. But the big money is working against | Sep 18 17:09 |
| techrights-sec5 | it and will finish off the last holdouts soon. | Sep 18 17:09 |
| techrights-sec5 | Yes but she went through when FOSS was still the norm. | Sep 18 17:09 |
| techrights-sec5 | Uh oh. | Sep 18 17:09 |
| techrights-sec5 | Big crowds then | Sep 18 17:09 |
| techrights-sec5 | Interesting that NHS hides that. | Sep 18 17:10 |
| techrights-sec5 | .se | Sep 18 17:10 |
| techrights-sec5 | yes | Sep 18 17:10 |
| techrights-sec5 | The damage is done for a full generation already though. | Sep 18 17:10 |
| techrights-sec5 | Hopefully no new damage from schools misusing smartphones. | Sep 18 17:10 |
| schestowitz-pi | re >Big crowds then | Sep 18 17:10 |
| schestowitz-pi | no, halftime | Sep 18 17:10 |
| schestowitz-pi | everyone is still inside | Sep 18 17:10 |
| schestowitz-pi | and we get to see nice big horses | Sep 18 17:10 |
| schestowitz-pi | police horses | Sep 18 17:10 |
| schestowitz-pi | somtimes they stroll near the back of our house | Sep 18 17:10 |
| schestowitz-pi | and can hear the strides | Sep 18 17:10 |
| schestowitz-pi | but they're there for hooliganism | Sep 18 17:10 |
| techrights-sec5 | Good | Sep 18 17:11 |
| techrights-sec5 | Interesting | Sep 18 17:11 |
| schestowitz-pi | i think we learned to "master" joy of simple things | Sep 18 17:12 |
| schestowitz-pi | this past hour i feed the birds here | Sep 18 17:12 |
| schestowitz-pi | today they had some fights i had to break | Sep 18 17:12 |
| schestowitz-pi | one got the courage not to just run away | Sep 18 17:12 |
| schestowitz-pi | and started to assert territory | Sep 18 17:12 |
| schestowitz-pi | until thepartner of the other came | Sep 18 17:12 |
| schestowitz-pi | today rianne said, | Sep 18 17:12 |
| schestowitz-pi | last time i boought someething that i've not used wa sa year agoi | Sep 18 17:12 |
| schestowitz-pi | so i am cured off "shopping" | Sep 18 17:12 |
| techrights-sec5 | Nice | Sep 18 17:12 |
| techrights-sec5 | Excellent | Sep 18 17:12 |
| schestowitz-pi | remember she nblocks ads | Sep 18 17:14 |
| schestowitz-pi | outside influences on her are very innocuous atm | Sep 18 17:14 |
| schestowitz-pi | sher does not do social control media or "apps" | Sep 18 17:14 |
| schestowitz-pi | that makes her a "bad" consumer and citizen | Sep 18 17:14 |
| schestowitz-pi | i'm ok with that | Sep 18 17:14 |
| techrights-sec5 | You might enjoy the film "They Live" | Sep 18 17:14 |
| schestowitz-pi | checking if youtube/invidious has that | Sep 18 17:14 |
| schestowitz-pi | i think i watched it | Sep 18 17:14 |
| schestowitz-pi | you or ryan shared this url before, iirc | Sep 18 17:18 |
| techrights-sec5 | https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096256/ | Sep 18 17:19 |
| techrights-sec5 | It was the one with the fight in the alley | Sep 18 17:19 |
| techrights-sec5 | and the sunglasses | Sep 18 17:19 |
| techrights-sec5 | Quite likely. It is more than a cult classic. | Sep 18 17:19 |
| techrights-sec5 | "Nada: I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass... and I'm all out of bubblegum." | Sep 18 17:19 |
| techrights-sec5 | "buy ... consume ... obey" | Sep 18 17:19 |
| techrights-sec5 | It covers a lot of political / economic topics in a short space. | Sep 18 17:19 |
| techrights-sec5 | under the disguise of a sci-fi action movie | Sep 18 17:19 |
| schestowitz-pi | just watched the trailer | Sep 18 17:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | a bit all over the place | Sep 18 17:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | i am feeding the birds every 5 mins | Sep 18 17:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | it's relaxing | Sep 18 17:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | they interact with me | Sep 18 17:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | so i have company | Sep 18 17:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | i organise the area to be clean and tidy | Sep 18 17:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | and good for them | Sep 18 17:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | we clean it ocd style almost | Sep 18 17:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | but those are like pets now | Sep 18 17:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | i bought about 7kg of food on sunday for them | Sep 18 17:21 |
| techrights-sec5 | The trailer is likely to be worthless. | Sep 18 17:21 |
| techrights-sec5 | It's a hard film to summarize without ruining the whole plot. | Sep 18 17:21 |
| techrights-sec5 | Yes, it is important to keep the feeding area clean due to salmonella and such | Sep 18 17:21 |
| schestowitz-pi | clean space also nice to look at | Sep 18 17:24 |
| schestowitz-pi | i use steel brush, so also good exercise | Sep 18 17:24 |
| schestowitz-pi | feels like friday and 90s today | Sep 18 17:24 |
| schestowitz-pi | people playing old music outside | Sep 18 17:24 |
| schestowitz-pi | and it's warm, sunny | Sep 18 17:24 |
| schestowitz-pi | off-work tomorrow | Sep 18 17:24 |
| schestowitz-pi | i had some booze in the afternoon, not much | Sep 18 17:24 |
| schestowitz-pi | 90s films were maybe for a different brain | Sep 18 17:24 |
| schestowitz-pi | maybe that's why today's music and films "suck" | Sep 18 17:24 |
| schestowitz-pi | made for "streaming", fake audio playyback modalities | Sep 18 17:25 |
| schestowitz-pi | and economically, not artistically | Sep 18 17:25 |
| schestowitz-pi | same for the foods | Sep 18 17:25 |
| schestowitz-pi | even the cakes now are a pile of preservatives | Sep 18 17:25 |
| schestowitz-pi | it's "cheap" | Sep 18 17:25 |
| schestowitz-pi | and most people can now only afford cheap | Sep 18 17:25 |
| schestowitz-pi | ultra-processed | Sep 18 17:25 |
| techrights-sec5 | We visited some friends of xxxxxx the other week. The one had won | Sep 18 17:27 |
| techrights-sec5 | national music compositions. He played a few waltzes on the accordian | Sep 18 17:27 |
| techrights-sec5 | so we danced briefly. That was real music. | Sep 18 17:27 |
| techrights-sec5 | Earbud music is with no dynamic range and very narrow frequency range and | Sep 18 17:27 |
| techrights-sec5 | no subtlety with timbre and other aspects. | Sep 18 17:27 |
| techrights-sec5 | Autotune city | Sep 18 17:27 |
| schestowitz-pi | ------------------- | Sep 18 17:28 |
| schestowitz-pi | yes, but only recently i thought of the whole device aspect | Sep 18 17:28 |
| schestowitz-pi | the music adapted to the tech | Sep 18 17:28 |
| schestowitz-pi | not the other way around | Sep 18 17:28 |
| schestowitz-pi | repeat for movies, food, flights (pricing/dynamic pricing/service levels) | Sep 18 17:28 |
| techrights-sec5 | aYes the music adapted to the tech. So did the money. | Sep 18 17:29 |
| techrights-sec5 | For rap you do not need much, not even a band or much of a road crew | Sep 18 17:29 |
| techrights-sec5 | Just a drum machine, autotune, and someone willing to toe the line | Sep 18 17:29 |
| techrights-sec5 | while gesticulating profitably. | Sep 18 17:29 |
| schestowitz-pi | they optimised for money | Sep 18 17:30 |
| schestowitz-pi | like EFF did | Sep 18 17:30 |
| schestowitz-pi | not the original thing that brought in the money | Sep 18 17:30 |
| schestowitz-pi | today i was curious about this "drake" 'artist' | Sep 18 17:30 |
| schestowitz-pi | i don't know his music | Sep 18 17:30 |
| schestowitz-pi | i played his 'best' | Sep 18 17:30 |
| schestowitz-pi | not a single track was good | Sep 18 17:30 |
| schestowitz-pi | just talking and generic background "music" | Sep 18 17:30 |

| techrights-sec5 | which might try to actually protect digital rights. | Sep 18 17:34 |
| techrights-sec5 | Yes, a lot of the 'music' seems to me more as music-like background noise. | Sep 18 17:34 |
| techrights-sec5 | I knew someone who would 'talk American' like when he was a kid with | Sep 18 17:34 |
| techrights-sec5 | toy plastic soldiers. It sounded just like American Engish but | Sep 18 17:34 |
| techrights-sec5 | was just garbled sounds. The 'music' marketed these days seems | Sep 18 17:34 |
| techrights-sec5 | like the musical equivalent. | Sep 18 17:34 |
| schestowitz-pi | a wqeek ago i played this for rianne: | Sep 18 17:37 |
| schestowitz-pi | https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=VYJo6r5qhcc | Sep 18 17:37 |
| schestowitz-pi | i said, listen to the voices | Sep 18 17:37 |
| schestowitz-pi | that's singing | Sep 18 17:37 |
| schestowitz-pi | tehe arrangement is very expensive | Sep 18 17:37 |
| schestowitz-pi | "hey hi" means even cheaper stuff to compete against | Sep 18 17:37 |
| schestowitz-pi | so it becomes less viable to new gen audience | Sep 18 17:37 |
| schestowitz-pi | it is risky "investment" | Sep 18 17:37 |
| schestowitz-pi | like a high-budget movie | Sep 18 17:37 |
| schestowitz-pi | you sink in money into 100-piece orchestra and many vocalists | Sep 18 17:37 |
| schestowitz-pi | and hope to fill up stadiums duing covid-19 lockdowns | Sep 18 17:37 |
| techrights-sec5 | it's checking | Sep 18 17:37 |
| techrights-sec5 | an actual concert | Sep 18 17:37 |
| schestowitz-pi | you lower expectations | Sep 18 17:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | and they meet the new levels | Sep 18 17:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | like telling people bagging their own goods and waiting 10 mins in the single till open is "normal" | Sep 18 17:38 |
| schestowitz-pi | and this is "modern" | Sep 18 17:38 |

| techrights-sec5 | 'dynamic pricing' is driven by algorithms. but concert tickets are also | Sep 18 17:50 |
| techrights-sec5 | worsened by ticketmaster's monopoly *and* ticketmaster's business model | Sep 18 17:50 |
| techrights-sec5 | which profits more from re-selling (read: scalping) than from initial sales. | Sep 18 17:50 |
| techrights-sec5 | The Manchester, UK group Oasis was in the center of such a stormm recently. | Sep 18 17:50 |
| schestowitz-pi | lol, the timing | Sep 18 17:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | the stadium began playing oasis (live performer) | Sep 18 17:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | just 1 minute ago | Sep 18 17:51 |

| techrights-sec5 | I had never heard of Oasis till the other day. No idea about their sound | Sep 18 17:51 |
| techrights-sec5 | But apparently old people were willing to spend 350 per ticket. | Sep 18 17:51 |
| techrights-sec5 | All the while while grousing about the prices. | Sep 18 17:51 |
| schestowitz-pi | some old people have more money than they have years left to spend it | Sep 18 17:52 |
| schestowitz-pi | its the types who also fly "first class" | Sep 18 17:52 |
| schestowitz-pi | burn baby burn | Sep 18 17:52 |

| schestowitz-pi | trains became more expensive than flights on many routes | Sep 18 18:57 |
| techrights-sec5 | Part of the reason for that price disparity is due to price dumping and | Sep 18 19:05 |
