schestowitzBanks don't keep your money safe, either. "Savings" in the banks are loans from people with money to a bank which does not keep this money in a safe, and often has no guarantee of paying back, except gov. bailouts (i.e. taxpayers footing the bill). In the UK the gov. assures payback to savers only up to about 75,000gbp (it declined this year). One way to save money, I increasingly believe, is to buy a house or something like that -- whereNov 03 11:33
schestowitzyou can derive money from rental and the value does not diminish fast (unlike cars). This is "OK" as long as you don't expect some country like Russia to take over and confiscate all physical assets (my grandpa lost his house in Germany this way)...Nov 03 11:33

schestowitzI have a very low appreciation towards health professionals that I know is not entirely rewarded, but I have for years managed to avoid them and I will still do as much as possible.Nov 04 06:41
schestowitzAbout IT is difficult to find people more ignorant than physicians, I cannot believe those morons use medical devices powered by Windows. I once had eyes surgery and was told that if something went wrong I would have to use lens and go back later to finish the surgery. At the time I wondered: what could possibly go wrong if the laser is controlled by a computer? Windows, I later learnt!Nov 04 06:42
schestowitzI wonder why people put so much faith in medicine and medicaments as if they were part of a new and better religion. I wish there were more lawsuits related to the use of Windows on medical devices, not even Microsoft endorses it.Nov 04 06:42

schestowitzI worked at a German company here in Banana Republic and they used lots of expensive testing equipment based on HP-UX, not a joy but good enough. Then Agilent decided Windows would be the future and all new equipment was shipped with Windows. And the fucking testing software running on an emulator, it was not ported.Nov 04 18:23
schestowitzSomehow in Germany liked this equipment but here the company refused to buy equipment with Windows, therefore Agilent kept selling us equipment with HP-UX.

schestowitzBesides that I was robbed like 20 years ago, and after being robbed a police patrol passed by and told them what happened. Surprisingly they caught the robbers 20 minutes later, I suspect the robbers might have been screaming “we are thieves!” while bumping with the police. But I know for other’s experiences that going to the police is a waste of time so after that I called them maybe two or three times more, due to loud neighbors.Nov 07 07:13

"Savings" in the banks are loans from people with money to a bank which does not keep this money in a safe, and often has no guarantee of paying back, except gov. bailouts (i.e. taxpayers footing the bill). In the UK the gov. assures payback to savers only up to about 75,000gbp (it declined this year).

schestowitzI think in this particular case people have to raise their voice and stand, one thing is playing with your laptop and another one with medical equipment. We cannot just say “let’s put Linux on that eye surgery robot and see what happens!”Nov 04 18:23
schestowitzI worked at a German company here in Banana Republic and they used lots of expensive testing equipment based on HP-UX, not a joy but good enough. Then Agilent decided Windows would be the future and all new equipment was shipped with Windows. And the fucking testing software running on an emulator, it was not ported.Nov 04 18:23
schestowitzSomehow in Germany liked this equipment but here the company refused to buy equipment with Windows, therefore Agilent kept selling us equipment with HP-UX. That’s the kind of action I expect from healthcare professionals that are caring about my health. Options are plenty and even free.Nov 04 18:23

schestowitzfeel like having a louder one. It’s surprising the persuasion power of music.Nov 07 07:13

Surprisingly they caught the robbers 20 minutes later, I suspect the robbers might have been screaming “we are thieves!” while bumping with the police. But I know for other’s experiences that going to the police is a waste of time so after that I called them maybe two or three times more, due to loud neighbors.Nov 07 07:13
