[04:56] kingoffrance lol [04:56] kingoffrance you are wise in the ways of meta lol [04:57] Despatche not really, i just spend entirely too much time on the internet [04:57] kingoffrance well officially the catholic trinity is/was a mystery [04:57] kingoffrance only infinite wisdom can understand [04:57] kingoffrance so .......... [04:57] kingoffrance you will never get a straight answer there either [04:57] Despatche american libertarians aren't even a real third party anymore, if they ever were. they're just right lite now [04:59] kingoffrance quote St. Jerome says, in a well-known phrase: "The true profession of the mystery of the Trinity is to own that we do not comprehend it" (De mysterio Trinitatus recta confessio est ignoratio scientiae "Proem ad 1. xviii in Isai.") [04:59] kingoffrance so that was the prior system [04:59] kingoffrance "we dont know" [04:59] Despatche rule 1 of fight club: don't talk about fight club [04:59] kingoffrance anyone who claims to know, is anathema [04:59] kingoffrance reason alone, is anathema [04:59] kingoffrance yes :) ● Aug 15 [05:10] kingoffrance american dec. of independence natures law is perhaps opposite. alchemy perhaps straddled the line between the 2 [05:11] kingoffrance so 3rd option is alchemy lol [05:12] kingoffrance there's no good answer [05:18] kingoffrance another reason there is no good answer: [05:18] kingoffrance why colonize america? the official history is cortez was the/an incarnation of quetzalcoatl [05:19] kingoffrance who founded rome? romulus and remus [05:19] kingoffrance you will never get straight answers for those types of things [05:23] kingoffrance where does the greek alphabet come from? why cadmus brought it over of course lol https://www.britannica.com/topic/Cadmus [05:23] -TechrightsSocial/#boycottnovell-social-Cadmus | Greek mythology | Britannica [05:24] kingoffrance According to tradition, Cadmus brought the alphabet from Phoenicia to Greece. [05:24] kingoffrance is that a real guy? a meta-explanation? well, that's the answer lol [05:25] kingoffrance *was that [05:34] kingoffrance why is it the atlantic ocean? well it belongs to atlas of course. perfectly logical explanation lol Because the place where Atlas stood to perform his task was the westernmost end of the world known to the ancient Greeks, the ocean near him was called Atlantic in his honor. [05:35] kingoffrance of course romulus would found rome, who else ? lol ● Aug 15 [06:02] kingoffrance why thoth says he built the pyramids, perfectly logical thing for an ibis to do [06:02] kingoffrance at some point you run into these types of history lol [06:25] Despatche bs, there's a whole ass continent under there, let's drain the atlantic ocean so we can find it!!!

[20:39] activelow the account is cleared entirely [20:40] activelow 0, nothing [20:40] schestowitz-TR good [20:40] schestowitz-TR I thought about doing the same one day [20:40] schestowitz-TR but inflation is a problem [20:40] schestowitz-TR 10 or 20 years down the line today's money can be worth half [20:40] activelow and it wasn't tax-free either, all money dumped into this was already taxed and accounted for with social security [20:41] activelow and, even if i reached the age, when such a plan pays, it will be taxed again. [20:42] activelow schestowitz-TR: i was expropirated with two currency reforms already, east mark, west mark, then wast mark to euro. [20:42] DaemonFC DaemonFC: i terminated my pension fund [20:42] DaemonFC It sounds like Germany sucks even more than this place. [20:42] activelow not for everyone DaemonFC, only if you are german CIS while privilegd male who didn't inherit [20:42] DaemonFC I'm mad that a half a pound of grape tomatoes are now $4 at Walmart(!) meanwhile they've stolen everything activelow had saved 4 times over in the past 30 years. [20:43] activelow *white [20:43] activelow well, i spend some too [20:43] DaemonFC When you consider how the far-left operates, you quickly realize they're at least as full of shit as anyone else in "mainstream" politics these days. [20:44] DaemonFC Lake County stops mowing outside their government offices (saves money, makes them look like shit), says it's to reduce carbon emissions. [20:44] activelow extremist constitutional enemies, this is what they are [20:44] DaemonFC You miss mowing the lawn with your gasoline mower one week and they come out and halfass it and post a $500 fine on your front door. [20:44] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, ^ [20:44] DaemonFC This is how government works. [20:44] DaemonFC Also, MinceR [20:45] DaemonFC Somehow I doubt showing up to traffic court (it's the same place to deal with ordinance violations) and saying you were trying to cut your carbon emissions in accordance with the Paris Deal because the county inspired you is going to work. [20:46] DaemonFC It's another small reminder that the government breaks it's own damned laws all the time. Whenever it wants. [20:46] activelow schestowitz-TR: my last project which i received some salary for was end of 2016, with which i was ripped of several dozens of thousands again [20:46] DaemonFC But if you step out of line, watch your ass. [20:47] activelow it was some document categorization system for german aerospace [20:47] DaemonFC I've thought about suing the health department for not mowing its lawn and asking that the penalty be that it has to return the entire budget they used to spend mowing the lawn to the taxpayers for the period where they weren't mowing. [20:47] DaemonFC Because our taxes just kept going up, even when they stopped mowing. [20:48] activelow paris agreement is a scam [20:48] DaemonFC schestowitz-TR, The gency that tracks the spread of West Nile and Zika has set up a mosquito breeding factory right outside their office. [20:49] DaemonFC I wonder if they realize what a "wetland" is. [20:51] DaemonFC I went to buy another batch of lemons today. [20:52] DaemonFC 1.98 to 2.25 pounds, all labeled 2 pounds. [20:52] schestowitz lemons? [20:52] DaemonFC Oddly this is legal, as long as you get an average of 2 pounds. [20:52] schestowitz for tea? [20:52] DaemonFC No, for water, mostly. [20:52] schestowitz ah [20:53] DaemonFC Some idiots went along with that ZeroWater marketing. [20:53] DaemonFC It's not a great idea to drink water that's been almost completely demineralized on a regular basis. [20:53] DaemonFC Much less pay that much for filters. [20:54] DaemonFC There's just not anything that dangerous at those levels that you would need a system like that here. [20:54] DaemonFC I suppose if you lived in Flint, Michigan, you'd want a ZeroWater-type system. [20:54] DaemonFC Hell, I'd probably own one if I lived there. [20:55] DaemonFC It just doesn't taste fantastic here. It's mostly a chlorine taste and organic contaminants that standard Brita filters do okay on. [20:55] DaemonFC They don't last as long as they say they do. Have to change them out every month. [20:55] activelow DaemonFC: as a hobby i maintained a fish tank for 20 years, and studied some water chemistry basics [20:55] DaemonFC Demineralizing the water would cause it to become a weak acid. [20:55] DaemonFC Because of the carbon dioxide it would soak up from the air. [20:56] activelow no idea hwo ZeroWater could remove minerals from the water, often water is mineralized to heavy [20:56] DaemonFC Well, it comes with a TDS meter, but what people don't realize is that it's only accurate to parts per million. [20:56] activelow at least, most fresh water fish are adapted to much lower mineral content in the water than available in households [20:56] DaemonFC Lead isn't safe at any level, and is toxic for sure at 15 parts per billion or higher. [20:56] DaemonFC The less, the better. [20:58] DaemonFC Nevertheless, even though that stupid TDS meter can't detect toxic levels of lead, it does have an NSF/ANSI standard certification by an independent lab to make a health claim for lead reduction. [20:58] DaemonFC Which means it must remove at least 95% of the lead over the rated life of the filter. [20:59] MinceR i don't get the obsession with mowing lawns [20:59] DaemonFC Just because two brands of filter say NSF/ANSI standard 42 or 53 or 401 doesn't mean they remove the same contaminants. [20:59] MinceR it usually results in ridiculously short grass with damaged tips, the whole thing dries out and becomes yellow [20:59] MinceR beautiful! [20:59] activelow toxic heavy metal, typically, are not removed at all in a fish tank, but some chelates added to the water to transform toxic metals into less toxic compounds [20:59] DaemonFC They've only been certified to that standard for the contaminants that are listed on the box. ● Aug 15 [21:00] activelow most pharameceutical residues can only be removed by active filtering of micro-porous filtering coal [21:00] DaemonFC So if you make an NSF/ANSI standard 53 claim and it says lead removal on the box, you should be good for that, at least. [21:02] activelow water demineralization is possible with a reverse osmosis installation, or some Ion-exchanger, or by boiling water and collecting the steam - all of which is expensive [21:02] activelow anyway [21:03] activelow testing water quality can be done relatively cheap: with daphnia or artemia eggs of well defined quality, and counting the living hatchlings and their survival rate in the water [21:04] activelow goes without saying heavy chlorination isn't desireable [21:14] activelow some fish tank operators use completely dead water, with lowest conductivity possible, filtered over microporous active coal and uv-filter/ozone, and then add everything again manually: minerals of known composition, known good "bio starter" (some mud from a good fish tank) [21:16] activelow once, i had some luck, with a completely fresh tank, green "algae" began to grow, which in fact wasn't some algae but some type of "bryophyte", plancton [21:17] activelow didn't plant this myself, it simply began to grow out of nowhere, but later sadly began to rot and cyanobacteria took over leaving lots of jauche in the tank (without any fish at that time) [21:22] DaemonFC Yeah, reverse osmosis is what my cousin needs after she got my grandmother's house. [21:22] DaemonFC But the well water pressure isn't good enough for the typical 40% reject rate. [21:25] DaemonFC Well, one good thing came out of Free Dumb Tech. RUTracker doesn't seem to ban them. [21:41] DaemonFC Me on WGN: [21:41] DaemonFC "The only reason we don't bring back the death sentence and put in electric bleachers is that politicians don't have to live in the same world as us where the police ignore you unless they're writing you a ticket or something." [21:44] activelow meanwhile, reviewing my response letter to court. i mean some "judge" decided traders do not need to clearly identify anymore at least, and then may decide no correct invoices are necessary anymore. i cannot believe this. [21:44] DaemonFC The world would be a better place if they took just the worst 10% of what they have sitting down there in prison waiting to get paroled and fried them and tossed them in a ditch. [21:44] activelow pardon? [21:45] DaemonFC The US has a very awful criminal law system. [21:45] DaemonFC People are so tied up with reverse racism and budget cutting that, at least in Illinois, you're fucked if you're white and it's a misdemeanor. [21:45] DaemonFC And if you're black and you fucked a kid to death, you'll be back in 10-15 years so you can abscond. [21:46] activelow don't believe this [21:46] DaemonFC I'm just glad they executed John Wayne Gacy when they did. [21:46] DaemonFC Pogo would be out today if they hadn't with this sick bunch of liberals they have on the parole board. [21:47] DaemonFC The criminal code is being dismantled in pieces. [21:47] DaemonFC They have the worst set to go into effect after Governor "Prickster" wins or loses the election. [21:48] DaemonFC If it was so fantastic that it would lead to the results they said it would, why wait two years to get rid of cash bail? [21:49] DaemonFC Why not just phase it out now so the 1 in 10 murderers the Democrat judges in Cook County does decide to lock up pending trial gets out too? ● Aug 15 [22:03] activelow DaemonFC: reading about Pritzker now. Wikipedia notes he is the richest man to take responsibility as a politician. [22:04] activelow currently richer than djt i think [22:05] DaemonFC Well, probably. [22:06] activelow certainly [22:06] DaemonFC Pritzker hasn't financed his entire life and filed bankruptcy 6 times "because he's rich" like Trump did. [22:06] activelow and it is an entiry clan of pritzkers, with their wealth split accross them, then summing up to alot more than djt [22:06] DaemonFC Rich people usually file bankruptcy a lot. Everyone knows that. :) [22:07] activelow wikipedia notes $29billion [22:07] activelow anyway [22:07] DaemonFC Yeah, their name is plastered all over Shitcongo. [22:07] DaemonFC If they waited, they could have gotten it cheaper. :P [22:08] DaemonFC The value of the city is in the toilet under the token black lesbian mayor that's tripled the crime rate. [22:08] DaemonFC (And caused 20% of businesses to fail with tyrannical decrees.) [22:08] DaemonFC Democrats don't stop until your entire city is like something that crawled out of a pit from Hell. [22:09] DaemonFC They somehow make it both expensive, dangerous, filthy, and polluted, with nowhere to work at, all at the same time. [22:09] activelow i see [22:09] activelow don't think it is specific to "democrats", but anyway [22:10] DaemonFC When it comes to growing the economy or doing anything positive with their position vs. just outright buying votes from dirtbags with other people's money, they choose the latter. [22:11] DaemonFC So you have to pay outrageous taxes and rents to enable the welfare queens who are running you over at the store on the scooters. [22:11] activelow don't think yet either pritzker and lightfood are the root cause of it [22:11] activelow at least, don't know [22:11] DaemonFC 8 kids in there clinging from them and screaming. [22:11] activelow don't think two persons alone can ruin an entire city [22:11] DaemonFC Getting lobsters and crawfish and dumping and entire case pack of candy in their basket and then putting it on food stamp cards. [22:12] DaemonFC While you're in there trying to afford hotdogs. [22:12] activelow DaemonFC: whom do you mean with who? i am not living in Chicago [22:13] activelow not yet, but USA minions who hijacked german politics arrange for similar in most german cities [22:13] DaemonFC No, white people who are suckers and rich enough that the taxes are just a nuisance enable this. [22:13] DaemonFC They go to polling places and use their white guilt and disconnection from reality to put people like Lightfoot over the top. [22:14] activelow there is some differences nonetheless,between germany and usa, for example "multi cultural diversity" in germany means dozens of different languages: turkish, arab, bulgarian and who knows what [22:14] DaemonFC It's like, Germany is apparently overflowing with undersirable immigrants. [22:14] activelow when at least, in USA msot speak english, and others some latin (spanish) [22:14] DaemonFC And it's because they felt so bad about the Holocaust that they reacted in the other direction. [22:15] DaemonFC Although a lot of that is because the EU literally is open borders where people from worse countries exploit the "free movement of people". [22:15] activelow i do not blame immigrants, although their portrayal as "poor" is somewhat misprepresanting the case [22:15] DaemonFC They just go to your country and they're there now. Which is what a lot of people here are trying to make happen. [22:15] activelow typos, anyway [22:16] activelow anyway, this is one of my grievance with USA, which is they impose their world view and ideology to other nations, and are not aware of the cultural and economic differences [22:17] activelow USA "intellectuals" couldn't at least comprehend the language issue, and some culture and language such as german isn't simply re-constructed by lecturing millions of immigrant children in schools [22:17] activelow that's why, uncontrolled mass immigration posed such a severe threat to german language and culture, with unforseen consequences [22:18] activelow another difference is welfare system was/is slightly more reliable in germany, not necessarily more generous, but reliable [22:19] activelow and this is threatened too. [22:19] activelow DaemonFC: for example even children from poor families could visit universities without being trapped in debt [22:20] activelow DaemonFC: and this is what "democrats" here (labeled as alliance90/greens) seek to sabotage, beginning with the schools [22:21] activelow DaemonFC: their argument here is it would be "unfair" if foreign language cultures and their children had difficulties in *german* schools, hence the school system had to "improve" [22:24] activelow i grew up in east-germany, which was different, not because of "socialism" there alone, but because the economy didn't seek to employ immigrants as cheap workforce [22:25] activelow hence i couldn't have imagined the situation after 1990, what west-"germany" really was [22:26] activelow and this is another explanation why the "black lives matter" and "slavery" discussion from USA cannot be applied to former east-germany for example: east-german socialists didn't NOT enslave black people to work on their farms [22:27] activelow nonetheless the "BLM" protests were imported into germany, and protesters rallying in Berlin [22:27] activelow doesn't mean no racism existed to protest against, nonetheless the BLM protest didn't belong into east-germany/Berlin [22:28] activelow that is why i reject "BLM", because it is a USA-movement, or French or British one, not a german, and specifically not east-german [22:32] activelow with the recent afghan escalation again public news didn't report yet, how many of this "multi culturalism" shall be imported again [22:33] activelow DaemonFC: since whenever USA/Nato escalated with a war it was Germany who had to accept dozens of millions of immigrants, Yugo-War, Iraq-War, Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Vietnam [22:34] activelow DaemonFC: imagine this if some hundreds of thousands of, uhm, Muslims or Palestinians with their political and religious "ideals" were sent to Chicago or New York [22:38] activelow and then USA may enjoy "multi culturalism" and the democratic mindset of those who they had "liberated" with their wars waged [22:38] activelow in germany the recent idea seem to be to lock-down the entire country as a precaution, to exclude any undesired population from participating in society [22:39] activelow besides, i had "enjoyed" expropriation with two currency reforms already, now this "german" government seeks to enforce the THIRD vaccination passport already (in 35 years) [22:40] activelow which means, with the "yellow" vaccination book and the scheme i REJECT, i am not allowed to freely live, work and travel andymore in my OWN HOMELAND, while those who got the "yellow stamp" now can go on holidays in turkey, spain and visit soccer stadiums ● Aug 15 [23:24] DaemonFC Pretty much the only place that makes you prove vaccination to do anything in the US right now is San Francisco. [23:24] DaemonFC The expensive Democrat shithole Matthew Garrett lives in. [23:24] DaemonFC All people are going to do is get fake vaccination cards. [23:24] DaemonFC They're shittier than hell. You can run them off at Kinkos. [23:32] kingoffrance well, antifa was a european thing too [23:32] kingoffrance so americans had no idea what the hell it was [23:32] kingoffrance cluster**** all around [23:59] MinceR 15 224434 < DaemonFC> The world would be a better place if they took just the worst 10% of what they have sitting down there in prison waiting to get paroled and fried them and tossed them in a ditch. [23:59] MinceR the worst criminals don't even get convicted
