The man with the 80lb brain and an IQ of 75

Filed under: Wimminz — Tags: — wimminz @ 1:18 pm

Picture him, if you will, some grotesque creature from a Star Wars spaceport saloon, all head with a tiny withered body, barely able to process enough food to support the brain, with nothing left over for locomotion and action.

Even if his IQ was 750, he has no locomotion, and withered limbs, he cannot build his own shelter, fix an engine, or climb.

He would be dependent entirely on an army of minions to turn his thoughts into acts, and feed him, carry away his wastes, move him from place to place.

The only time this ever worked in nature was not when intellect was invoked, but the exact opposite, breeding, the queen ant / bee / etc insect colony, and even there, the queen has to first produce her own correctly sexed workers before she can bloat into an eater and breeder.

Even then, for the individual queen concerned, we are talking a dead end street, there is no going back, getting out, starting over, none of that good stuff.

But, in our case, because the brain is so big and complex, it doesn’t actually achieve anything, there are innumerable engineering examples where a brutally simple feedback system (that often apes nature) vastly outperforms any computationally controlled alternative, and does it on almost no power, and with almost no mass, volume, complexity, or anything else… so our vast 80 lb brain spends much of it’s own time and energy just trying to keep itself organised and operational, and indeed communicating with itself across the relatively massive internal distances involved.

Few people today actually realise that the speed of light, or, more accurately the slightly slower speed of electricity in a conductor, is the limiting factor in silicon chips such as the CPU and GPU and RAM in your PC.

The speed is finite, and so the maximum time it takes for a signal to travel from one side of the chip to the other and back again becomes a hard limit for the clock frequency of the device.

A CPU 100,000 miles across would contain an almost unimaginable number of transistors etc, in theory it would be unimaginably powerful, but the laws of physics mean it would not be able to run much above 1 Hz, if it actually made it that high, s0 unless you can re-code a task such as going from off to a working windows desktop in 7 CPU cycles it just got hammered by my socket 2011 i7 CPU running at 3.5 GHz, and the fact is, my socket 2011 i7 PC gets hammered in boot up time by my auto-ranging multimeter, and yes, it is a fair comparison, it is an embedded digital device, just because it performs a different task does not mean the basic principles cannot be compared and contrasted.

A drooling idiot with an IQ of 25 can be quite effective in the physical world, but there is no brain to either direct intelligent action, or to take intelligent instruction.

Deviating slightly for a moment….

In my day job I’m reasonably well known for taking the GI approach to the job, the tools the company issue me are limited and mainly cheap crap, I have *far* better stuff myself at home, but I don’t use any of it for my day job.

Why?

GI. Government Issue. If the company wanted me to have more or better tools, they would have issued them to me, and the problem with taking your own tools is they increase your abilities, and that way lies mission creep, you going into areas that are outside the original scope of the work you have been assigned, and going off the reservation this way is never rewarded in the long run, sooner or later it will *always* bite you in the ass.

So I’m having a conversation last week with a project manager, one of the big ongoing contracts, he is ringing me to see how a particular site went and if I did this and that, it’s not rocket science, but apparently a lot of the guys are still screwing up.

So a comment was made that ll you had to do was use your brain, and I said to him, if the fucking company wanted me to have a brain, they should have issued one, or paid me for the one I have, as it is, I use my brain for CYA mode, and I cover my ass by not making obvious screw-ups, hell, it makes *my* life easier and more peaceful.

I got a nervous laugh from him, Mr corporate project manager didn’t have an answer for that one.

But, and here is the point, and no, I am NOT looking back with rose tinted glasses here, the younger guys working for the company, a *significant* proportion of them are fucking clueless, oh sure, like wimminz, they can complete tasks that allegedly display this thing called intellect or intelligence, they can study and pass tests, all sorts of good shit, but, they also regularly pull WTF stupid shit, and no, it ain’t a thing about age or experience… I can look at them and fucking SEE that they are NOT using their brain, they are instead grasping at straws, looking for a “solution” that apparently fits.

This is what the niggerz last week was doing, the one who was trying to get me to do something that would give him the solution he wanted, even though it would have been the wrong thing to do, quite apart from the fact it would not have rectified the problem that did exist.

See, here *is* a thing that comes with age and experience, and is not just a function of intellect, so pay attention at the back there, you are about to learn something important to your own life from an old(er) cunt who has seen and done it all, in fucking stereo man…

You know those people who can never admit that they are wrong, that they fucked up, and they are the one that caused this problem?  … and no, I don’t just mean wimminz here, this is niggerz too, like the cunt from last week.

Here is the thing, intelligence isn’t *just* about not fucking up, sure, it helps to minimise the frequency and extent, but you will still fuck up now and again, and sure, *here* is where age and experience helps, it minimises this shit, but that’s just a factor, you’ll still fuck up now and again, and intelligence is not just about spotting when you have fucked up PDQ after you have fucked up, and stopping you from digging a deeper hole for yourself, intelligence is really about ANALYSIS, ok, I clearly fucked up here, now, HOW, what did I miss, what did I do wrong, how do I make sure I can stop the problem getting any worse, how do I rectify it, does this require I get someone else in on it and brief them fully… all that good shit.

If you lack that intelligence, ergo, you lack the ability to say “hey, I fucked up, here is where I think I went wrong”… if you cannot compute the processes required to come to the self realisation that you were wrong, you cannot know you were wrong.

That leads to fear and insecurity, because if you cannot know you were wrong, then by simple logical neither can you *know* when you are right, so when something happens, instead of being OK, there is a problem here, but I know it has fuck all to do with me, so let’s have a look and see if we can sort it, your first reaction is OK, there is a problem here, I hope to fuck it wasn’t something I did, I better not do anything to attract any investigation into that, I know, I’ll just blame this other fucker.

So now we are back to the man with the 80lb brain, and yeah, I’m talking analogies and metaphors for modern society, it isn’t just that the brain itself is consuming a disproportionate amount of the body’s resources, and leaving a body too weak to be motive or effect or create or alter, it is that the brain itself is consuming too many of its *own* resources just keeping basic functions going that there is nothing left over for higher functions or intellect.

So when the skanky ho, who thinks she might just have a potential mark in me, sends me a communication, it is self evident that what she chose to say to me is the message she wants me to get (understand well the difference between the message person A wants person B to receive, and reality) is that she is off to secure her inheritance, but, having an INTELLECT, I’m just waiting for the other shoe to fall, and sure enough it does, the lawyer is asking for too much money, well what a motherfucking surprise bitch, so I text back saying that’s too bad, you’ll just have to find another method that you can afford, and….  crickets

So when the other skanky ho, who thinks she might have a potential mark in me, has given me the usual bollocks, and instead of the hoped for response I get back to her with OK babe, that’s all fine and shit, but what are you REALLY after on okcupid… crickets

So when the guy who thinks he has a potential fall guy in me, and instead of the hoped for response to his “I want you to write on the form that this stuff ain’t working” gets a “Not happening, that is NOT what that form is for” and he doubles down…  crickets, from me….  OK, fuck you he thinks, pull that shit out of the rack, if it ain’t installed nobody can find out where the problem is, and if it is my fuckup or not.

So when I bill my company for overtime to write up what happened, what I did etc, and they think I am just pulling a “I dunno what went wrong, but I hope it ain’t me, so I’ll write this shit to cover my ass and deflect any blame” and I get crickets back from them, it’s only cos they don’t realise that corporate email from me to them is my future potential get out of jail free card, and my who is “we” motherfucker, you got a mouse in your pocket? card, and my play with the sharpest knife in the fucking drawer you get cut, card.

But the bottom line here, take it from me, the brain, as in the intellect, is in many ways a muscle like any other, if you don’t exercise it, it atrophies.

It is also important to know the difference between animal cunning and intellect, animal cunning is good enough for 99% of life, but that other 1%, it is no substitute for intellect, and that other 1% comes into everyone’s life.

I can also tell you, for an observed fact, that that particular muscle is getting a *lot* less exercise in the population as a whole than it used to when I was a kid…

OK Cupid is fucking FULL of stupid motherfuckers who think the Earth is bigger than the Sun, a Kilometre is longer than a Mile, STALE is to STEAL as 89475 is to.. is a fucking MATHS question, and the evolution (vs creationism) has no place being taught in schools.

New Deal Used Cars

Filed under: Wimminz — Tags: , — wimminz @ 2:49 pm

If you haven’t seen it, it was a great 1980 film with Kurt Russell.

So, there is an article over at ZH at the mo about unsold car stocks.

http://www.vincelewis.net/unsoldcars.html is the original website they quote, but for those with their eyes open this is nothing new, sure, there is *more* of it now than there was several years ago, but it ain’t a new phenomenon.

Shades of the unsold cars being scrapped and going in to one end of the factory while new models come out the other end of the factory to take their place on the parking lot… von neumann machines gone mad.

But it isn’t just confined to cars, same shit applies to commercial property, and as ZH and the original website note, nobody is going to sell this shit at 10c on the $, as doing *that* will destroy the prices in the rest of the market.

Same deal going down with houses with underwater mortgages and loans that the banks are *not* foreclosing on.

The same sort of “it makes sense, in a crazy way” insanity is in everything else, razor thin margin and the need to generate sales and revenue *now*, no matter what the cost down the line, we are putting ever more crap and flaky cheap-ass shit in place, instead of half decent stuff that doesn’t require constant attention to keep it going.

The fucking cloud is the same (https://github.com/panicsteve/cloud-to-butt) and I’m not sorry to say fucking virtualisation is the same.

It is, as always, not that these things CANNOT be done properly from a technical point of view, it is that they are always done as cheap ass as possible, completely and utterly ignoring the fundamental principle that EVERYTHING breaks, sooner or later.

The video doing the rounds of the light aircraft in Australia that had an engine failure, and the pilot implemented a standard feature of that particular make of light aircraft, and deployed the fucking parachute, and the video is of it drifting softly and gently towards the ground…. awesome… now there was a product made by someone who knew that everything breaks, and didn’t try to build a plane as cheaply as possible…. I fucking guarantee the pilot in question and his passengers just got lifetime brand loyalty… http://cirrusaircraft.com/caps/

But, meanwhile, back at the ranch, we are still on the one hand nickel and dime-ing everything to death, while on the other hand artificially maintaining production quotas on shit that just isn’t selling, but doing it as quietly as possible, for no other purpose than to maintain the market price for the shit that is selling, so far, it’s not even true Wile E Coyote, because it is done on a budget, instead of going to Acme Corp for everything, the poor bastard has to rummage through the surplus stores and walmart.

Vast evil conspiracy? Not seeing any of that, what I am seeing, *everywhere*, is terminally incompetent motherfuckers scrabbling over a rotting corpse trying to get at the seed corn in it’s pockets so that they can eat it today.

Hunger tomorrow? fuck that shit.

I had a “bad” day at work last week, and for me to have a bad day it has to be bad, because I am a CYA mofo who can do the job stoned and chilled with one hand tied behind my back.

It was a bad day because the worthless cunt on site was a reseller, and his customer was the site itself, and he was doing the my cock is bigger than yours tech stories shit while I am setting up.

Then I set up, and everything *I* just set up works, fuck it, there are few things you can ask a guy like me to do that are simpler than racking a preconfigured Cisco with one “in” port and one “out” port below a 100 Mbit fibre connection and patching it in. Literally 4 fucking rack screws, 2 patch leads, console in, ISP remotes in, all good.

Cept it wasn’t for this worthless cunt, who started claiming the new shit didn’t work, because it didn’t work with his shit, because he couldn’t sort out the rather obvious routing issue, which should have been a piece of piss for someone with all the my huge cock tech stories he has ten fucking minutes ago… cunt.

Sure, there may well have been a rather minor technical issue, one that could have been fairly quickly resolved, that’s what normally happens in my day job, two or more tech guys from two or more companies comparing notes on why box A doesn’t seem to be playing nicely with box B, even though strictly speaking that isn’t in the scope of works, which was just to install box A and make sure it works (you can, for more money, have a separate scope of works, where we make sure boxes A and B play nicely) not because you *have* to, but because it is nice to and it makes everyone happy and you know you can walk off site and the job is done done, not just done.

But not with this cunt, he was only interested in blaming us, and maintaining his own omnipotent image, and so rather minor technical issues that could easily be resolved, turn into quite significant issues that offer no easy solutions, because you just acted like a prima donna and refused all the easy solutions.

More interested in being seen as being in the right, than in fixing the fucking problem, in fact so interested that if the fucking problem just got 50 times harder to fix, that’s fine by him, because he is right, innit.

Cunt acted like a fucking bitch, his only priority is that he himself was seen as being perfect, and powerful, and in control, and these other useless bastards (me/us) can just take that shit right out of the rack again.

Fine, it’s gone buddy. My only regret is I was there not as my own man with my self employed hat on, but as the representative of a very large ISP, so I couldn’t say or do shit, no matter how obvious it was I was pissed off.

That’s why it was a bad day, I had to take shit from a niggerz.

I go off site, sit in the car, got the A/C on and some Free kicking it through the speakers, fuck you buddy, I’ll take two hours to write up what an asshole you were for my line manager, and bill 2 hours overtime to do it, and guarantee that in the process your company gets double billed for the reinstall at a later date, not a freebie for a failed first effort, cos it didn’t fucking fail.

Then a mate calls me and asks me did I know H R Giger had snuffed it, no justice in the world when a guy like Giger dies and a niggerz like Ridley Scott is still alive, my mate gets all upset, the alien films were brilliant, yeah, if by “brilliant” you mean misandrist in almost every fucking way possible, go fuck yourself.

So my mate, who got invalided out of the military himself, is a bit red and blue pill when it comes to wimminz in the military, I’m all for it, you want equality bitch, put em in the fucking front lines and on ordinance disposal and all the other shit details going,  but let me ask you this, I say to him.

Here is another sci-fi / alien scenario, alien grabs 100 military types, 50 are wimminz, 50 are men, alien says there is this sealed compound you are in, and over there on stilts 3 foot off the ground is a box room.

The current capacity of the box room is 50, that will reduce by 1 every 30 seconds until the end scenario is met… which is nobody alive in the compound.

The box room will kill everyone in it, if there is any number of both men and wimminz in it.

This compound will kill everyone in it, except for those who are in the sanctuary of the box room, in 25 minutes.

What will happen, I ask him.

In my old regiment, he asks me?

I say yeh.

He says it depends if we are the first or second regiment to take the test.

I ask him what he means.

He says if we were the first, 20 of the 50 guys would be up for it, but the other 30 would white knight, and he doubted anyone would survive the scenario.

He says if they were the second, and saw the first, 5 minutes in there would be 50 dead wimminz and 15 dead men, and 35 survivors in the box room, smoking and waiting 20 minutes for the scenario to end.

He gets it, but he doesn’t, I guess the car makes and everyone else will have the same argument.

Me? I’ll be the alien with the broadcast rights please Jeremy.

Don’t wanna bump no more….

Filed under: Wimminz — Tags: , — wimminz @ 9:23 pm

Some years ago I ran into this guy, he was older and wiser and more mellow, but in his youth he was very active in the whole Spanish civil war / Franco / politics, he did a lot of political writing, and although only the other older guys remembered much of it, back in the day he was a leading light.

I was reminded of him some years later when I first came across the Vonnegut quote (https://wimminz.wordpress.com/2012/09/23/messages-in-messages/) about people projecting their own views onto the canvas, because we had been discussing Marx, and apparently this old guy had first hand knowledge of this, he said what Marx actually wanted to say, and how it came out in his writings, and how those writing were seen by others, were three completely different things..

The old guy explained it to me as though he was trying to write a travel guide to Argentina, and while it didn’t come out as a travel guide to China, because he was a good writer, it did come out as a travel guide to Brazil, and people who read it thought it was a great travel guide to Mexico.

And this is the bit that was triggered when I first saw the Vonnegut quote.

He said, because of this, communication of what you actually MEAN is very very difficult, he said, people don’t actually WANT to communicate or exchange information, what they want is something where they can extract the data that they are looking for.

If you are a “good” writer, you give them this, and as few thorns as possible, to make their extracting of the meme they want from your writing as easy as possible.

If you are a “great” writer, you give this to a very wide audience, all seeing the same words, all pulling what they want out of it.

He was a “great” and influential political writer of the time, and that, he said, is why he quit, he got so frustrated, because the more popular his words were, the further away the meaning taken by the readership was from what he actually wanted to say…

… if he had said, or, as he said, even been clever and experienced enough to be able to, to have said in his words what he actually wanted to say, he would have been an unheard of writer.

He saw huge parallels between Twain and Marx, not because of who they were or what they wrote about, but as characters, they had that cynical WTF is the point any-more attitude later in life, when they became famous for their writings, as though they were also pissed off with the dichotomy between being popular for giving people what they wanted to read, or being unpopular for writing what they considered to be far more intelligent and valuable work.

(Actually if you have never done it, and I never had before this old guy suggested it, it is interesting to compare Twain and Marx)

I’ll leave the final word to Joe Tex…. yes, it is related…lol

The Cold War II – it’s like fucking an ex…

Filed under: Wimminz — Tags: , , — wimminz @ 1:36 pm

I’m not old enough to remember WWII, though I do remember the bomb damage, as late as the mid 1970’s there was still bombed out ruins in places like Plymouth in Devon, which is as much as testament to just how much bomb damage there was, as well as to how long it takes to rebuild from scratch…

I do remember the so called cold war though, in those days before the rise of the supermarket, even small rural villages had a sub post office, shop, bus stop and phone box, the sub post offices did not just do stamps and pensions and shit, they had a dedicated phone line and speaker box, and a hand cranked siren, and one of the duties of the sub-post-master was to check the speaker box worked every week, and every couple of months give the siren a quick test.

Yes, this was the cold war shit, in times of alert the speaker was to be monitored 24/7, and if the warning was given, go out and crank the fucking siren, there is your 4 minute warning folks… now kiss your ass goodbye.

At that time, it was a free-er world, you had a post office account book that held all your transactions, if your post office book said you had a thousand in the bank, you could draw against it anywhere, and the transaction was recorded in the book… no central computer.

If you’d been a naughty boy on the roads in one police district and had gotten a ban or something, just move 100 miles… no central computer.

There were central computers, the police had a mainframe, and to interrogate it they had to use the vehicle radio, speak to someone, who spoke to some one else, who was sat at a keyboard, tappety tap, and information was relayed, verbally and slow.

The police radios themselves, analogue, AM baby, I can still distinctly remember being at a party, booze and grass and lebanese and speed and acid doing the rounds, and a suspected po-po undercover drug squad type “Err, excuse me, I have reason to believe you can turn me on, errr, man…” and sure enough a raid had been set up, and as the po-po vehicles arrive outside and report this back to base on the AM radios, the signal is picked up by the moving coil in the record stylus pick-up, and amplified over the sound system, quite surreal, dubbed to Child in Time, lol, so a few minutes later po-po come storming in, to be greeted by a crowd of 150 people who are doing nothing illegal and who have nothing illegal in their possession, sure, there are baggies everywhere, down seats, in the chandeliers, out the windows, but nobody is holding… hey, no DNA in those days either, just fingerprints…. good cunster-noon aftables, how may we be of assistance… oh, and take your DS plant with you when you leave, in about 60 seconds.. lol

You know, this was WHY radio silence came in, practically anything could pick up an old AM signal, if it was strong enough, and if you were near the TX station, it was strong enough.

I’m not trying to shit you and say they were good times, the threat was certainly PERCEIVED as being real, lots and lots and lots of people took it quite seriously.

So now it is back, (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-2625378/MATTHEW-BARZUN-America-NOT-stand-idly-Putin-cronies-destroy-peace-Europe.html) and it is like fucking an ex, one you didn’t really dig at the time, that’s why she is an ex, but now, in the intervening years, the bitch has gotten all Borg-ed up, Google glass surgically implanted, 17,654 page electronic EULA that you consented to by breathing in her presence, 95% of the illegal shit you did back then last time you knew her is still illegal, but now your activity is recorded 24/7 on Oculus rift TV, with DNA samples taken hourly, and anyway, you know, it was only the illegal shit you did together that made it work back in the day when you first started fucking each other.

Plus, there is a raft of whole new shit that never used to be illegal, but it is now.

Not enough to pacify that boner?

Well, there is the never used to be illegal but is now shit that is retroactively illegal, Pull out the old copy of Scorpions / Virgin Killer on vinyl that you USED to fuck to, instant sex offender for life status… god help you if she says “Oh yes daddy/sir/master” while you’re fucking her.

Hell, there is a whole raft of people being convicted of historical rapes and imprisoned right now, Max Clifford is one… now let me tell you, I fucking loathe the guy and everything he stands for, always have, but….

How the fuck can you convict on an alleged historical rape or 100, that allegedly happened 10/20/30/40 fucking years ago…. I mean, how, within the context of a legal system that is SUPPOSED to be innocent until proven guilty, then it got changed from proven guilty to found guilty, preponderance of evidence got changed to preponderance of “belief”, said “belief” being based on the shenanigans of the legal teams…. I dunno, you prefer Game of Thrones or Walking Dead, cos that’s all it is now, you are selecting which performance you prefer, and on the basis of this, a man is sentenced to imprisonment.

Like I said, I loathe Max Clifford, and I’m still not happy about his trial or conviction, it tells me that the system of justice has been abandoned completely, it is now no more than a circus, in the original meaning of that word, and we aren’t talking barnum and bailey here….. hey, I knew this anyway, been through the secret family courts, remember… but this says that even in a high profile under the spotlight public and criminal case, it has been abandoned completely, the gloves are off, the pretence is gone, and making it a hanging offence to point out that the emperor is naked employs a lot more drones than dressing the emperor up.

The information and propaganda and dogma wars that we are now fighting frankly make any traditional schisms such as sunni/shia protestant/catholic black/white pale in comparison.

We are destroying the meaning of language and the value of information, you’ll live in a chaotic soup, the meaning and value of everything is both mutable and unknowable, hell, we’ll just follow the Dow Jones and the rest of the herd.

it’s a digital / data tower of babel baby

A time for dying, statistically speaking.

“Nah mate, there is not one in a thousand chances of this going wrong” said Guillermo.

10 seconds later he was coming to terms with the transition from a theoretical 1 in 1,000 odds to a practical it done happened to you bud.. he died before the look of puzzlement left his face.

1 in 1,000 people dying from avian flu is good odds if you are a company that employs 1,000 people.

if you are a single individual, well, when shit happens to you that’s all there is, odds don’t matter, theory don’t matter, yesterday when all of this shit was impossible / improbable don’t matter.

I’ve said before, back in the day as an ex pat you always had a hidden real passport, and the one you used was your second passport, applied for when you “lost” your original one.

Thing is, the very first motherfucking sign, that was when you used it, an hour after that sign you were in the airport waiting for the next plane out, to anywhere.

You did it while you could, while you had the freedom to act, because ten seconds later after no longer being free to act, it was too fucking late.

Yes, you can bug out “too early”, but, you can’t bug out at all if it’s too late.

You can ALWAYS bug out too, look at this fucker…http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2621425/French-coast-guard-rescue-Afghan-trying-sail-Channel-raft-six-planks-wood-bedsheet.html

You CHOOSE not to, a choice I have made too, oh yeah, the old excuses, got no money, po-po has all my shit, got kids here, got old folks here… some times it’s the right call, I got lucky.

I wasn’t Guillermo that day.

What I’m trying to say here, statistics and odds and probabilities, they do not mean shit as an individual, it’s all fucking binary to an individual, you either do dodge the bullet, or you do not.

Better than dodging the bullet is not being there when the other fucker gets loaded.

There is no such thing as “friendly” fire.

Every bullet from every gun that is not in your hands, and maybe some of them too, are all enemy fire…. if it can hit you, it is enemy fire.

Yeah, if you emigrate to Manila and come 2025 and the big one in Yellowstone still hasn’t let go, you’ll look like a stupid fucker, but, you can only look like a stupid fucker if you are alive.

If you’re dead, you’re a really stupid fucker, like Guillermo.

If you want to be a free man (sic) first, you gotta stay free, and that, like everything else in an individual life, is a binary situation…0 you are free, 1 you are not, don’t play probabilities, 0.1 isn’t close to 0, 0.49 is way too late to start worrying or planning.

Rust never sleeps, nor do your enemies, see definition above of enemy.

GTFO

Hell, people take the shapes of clouds as signs from God to them personally, whaddaya want, a written invitation to el supremo where he tells you this territory ain’t big enough for the both of you, so you got 24 hours to hike or he’ll be gunning for you?

Quiet innit…. helloooooo…. is anybudee thereee….

Filed under: Wimminz — Tags: — wimminz @ 1:03 pm

lol..

I first asked this question in public on the 30th March 2014 here…
http://men-going-their-own-way.net/4ums/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=185

I can’t say much, or anything really, but that thread is an example of people having an intuitive feeling and ignoring it… and there are comments made here, and far more private messages, that are examples of people having an intuitive feeling and doing something that doesn’t actually make any difference.

I know it’s zer0 consolation when it’s *your* door the po-po come banging on at 5 am with a warrant for your arrest, it does you no good to have not used the internet for *anything* for 12 months and having sent *all* your computing devices to landfill on the same day.

In fact it does you harm, it *looks* suspicious, if you have done nothing wrong, why are you trying to hide shit? Is the thinking.

It also cuts *you* off from the only asset you have, a forensic record that when taken as a whole shows you as no more than an average Joe in the street who is worried about how the world is going.

I found this in my FRA, because the po-po had all my computers, and because my backup solution never envisaged *that* scenario, the one thing I was cut off from was all my data, which went a *long* way to establishing a pattern of routine behaviour that was *totally* at odds with everything being alleged about me.

Plus, take it from someone who knows, there *are* black boxes in the backbone hubs, they *are* there for the sole purpose of capturing all network traffic and archiving meta-data from it, eg URL requests and email content and browser POST content.

If I stopped using the internet and sent all my shit to landfill on the 10th May 2013, one year ago today, they would still *have* everything I had done up to that date.

In fact, *lacking* my own shit, *they* could claim anything they liked about my activities, “do you still beat your wife” and I would have *nothing* to counter it with.

So, as I said, scant comfort to those who do get the 5am hammering on the door from the po-po, but scant comfort and reality is better than the illusion of safety.

Nevertheless, it has gotten real quiet lately, all over, and I mean *all* over, not just blogs and forums, but the whole “social media” scene including dating and swinging and fucking sites, even perfectly fucking ordinary niche areas like websites and forums dedicated to a specific model of vehicle, or a specific hobby, or a specific interest, they are all strangely quiet lately.

But, it doesn’t end there.

In my day job, I connect businesses to teh intertubez, everything from the high street through the industrial estates to the clerical….

show controllers utilisation on cisco shows traffic loading, and there are certain CYA cisco commands that IMHO you should run, just so you can prove at a later date via putty log exactly how things were at a given time, so for example if port 0/2 is showing 8% receive traffic and 10% transmit utilisation you have definitive proof not only that 0/2 is up (sh ip int br will do that) but also that it is fucking active and talking to whatever is at the other end of the CAT5.

Because I keep records, it is often possible to compare site X today with the last time I visited 3 months ago, or with site Y, which is identical, which I visited last week.

Traffic is down dudes.

This is unthinkable, traffic *always* escalates over time, if for no reason other than bloatware (HTML email v plain text, 8 megapixel cameras as opposed to 4, etc etc)

Traffic is down because these sites are simply doing less work, if your number of sales and stock requests and loyalty vouchers and purchase orders drops 10% then your network traffic drops 10%.

5 miles away from me is one of the largest new and used car sales regions for a good 100 miles, and it is fucking *dead*, there isn’t shit happening, in fact two of them have recently had fires each of which destroyed a bunch of stock, da po-po are investigating arson, yeah, I see a fire in a quiet or under-capitalised business and I smell insurance job.

Other sites I go to, you overhear shit, and they are all juggling rotas, part time staff taking sickies and so on, so staffing levels are an ongoing crisis…. revised on a daily basis.

And NO FUCKER is talking about the Crimea, or QE, or the Housing Bubble, or Manufacturing, or Agriculture.

No, instead the papers are full of affairs and scandals, historical rape allegations, stalkers, robbers, muggers, celebutard affairs and divorces, Nazi washing powder (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2624936/Aryan-automatic-Detergent-giant-caught-Nazi-row-Ariel-boxes-feature-secret-far-right-code-Germany.html … hey, you wanted your whites WHITE, right… lol) and other mindless pap.

Helium-4

Filed under: Wimminz — wimminz @ 4:50 pm

OK, so, you could be forgiven for saying that recent USA policies look like the country as a whole is having a going out of business fire sale.

Of course it is all madness, the only thing that makes it not made at all, but quite sane, is if you knew FOR A FACT that the USA was about to go out of business, or cease to exist as we know it.

I give you, the Yellowstone caldera, and Helium-4 emissions.

You are entitled to make any demands you wish…

Filed under: Wimminz — wimminz @ 11:52 pm

… you’re just not entitled to have them fulfilled.

It’s a conversation  seem to have quite regularly, yeah, you two (husband and wife, late 40’s) can go on a swingers site and demand that no male older than 30 contact you because wifey doesn’t want to fuck any males over 30.

You are perfectly entitled to make that demand.

You just aren’t entitled to have it fulfilled.

Yeah, not very contentious, how about we extend it, you are perfectly entitled to make the demand that you be free, that you are allowed to breed, that you are entitled to eat, that you are entitled to live?

You just aren’t entitled to have any of them fulfilled.

Getting contentious yet?  Notice I just skipped past all the intermediate shit about sexual equality in the workplace and freedom of religion and freedom of expression.

Let me tell you about family, it’s like tribe in many ways, especially if you have an extended family, which I do.

Well, family went through the same changes as wimminz, when the old cunt dies I doubt I’ll ever see or speak to 99% of my family again, except for one more funeral, and that will be the last time.

They are no fucking use to me, none of they “they are there for you” shit, coming around and drinking my coffee and looking all sad when my shit gets fucked up ain’t being there for me, what do you need bro is being there for me, and that isn’t on offer any more, that crew all died out, the ones that are left, they ain’t shit.

A good friend is someone who will help you bury the body.

Ain’t none of them left alive I can say that about… so the feeling is mutual.

Tribe has gone too, village, company / platoon, pretty much all gone… only fuckers my age or younger who I trusted to that extent are all dead, hell, I doubt there are three of them who would even give me a place to sleep for one night, put it this way, if I got in that situation again, I wouldn’t bother even asking.

My extended family is entitled to make any demands of me they wish, they just aren’t entitled to have em fulfilled any more, and when this old cunt is gone, there will only be one left, who is the subject of a promise I gave 24/25 years ago…. and that promise is the only reason I been polite and put up with the shit, because you can’t make a promise to look out for the old cunt and then raise a shit-storm in his presence…. it just ain’t seemly.

So one of the twats tells me today I’ve been a good boy, always been there for family and shit, not that they would no, it was just said all placating like because of the look on my face, and then they said I got years to go for my funeral.

I just looked me in the eye, “Ain’t no bastard going to turn up at my funeral, nobody round the deathbed, nobody caring for me in my dotage… I’ll be dying alone…”

Kinda killed whatever they were going to say next, so they wandered off.

Pity, cos the rest of it was “and that’s probably better than this, and I’ll tell you something else, won’t be no doctors and medicines prolonging the fucking agony..”

Once you stop being mobile, getting up out of bed and doing shit for yourself, it’s downhill real fast from them on, which is why I got no time for these cunts on electric scooters.

Sure, that shit is easy to say when I’m in my 50’s and no my 90’s, but assholes to it man, my doctor could literally treat 5,000 other men like me in the time consumed by one female patient, or niggerz patient.

Cunts (health centre) sent me a letter today asking if I am still alive and my details are correct, seeing as they haven’t seen me for 36 months or more…

Still, at least I won’t have to put up with the fucking funeral directors and making the arrangements and shit, last time I threw the cunts out, swearing at them, very loudly, fucking vampires, well, there is our beautiful oak coffin, hand made, with solid brass handles and so in, which shows great respect for the dearly departed and how much they were loved etc, and then the weeping widow asks how fucking much, cos she ain’t really got any money anyway see, and the vampire says 1,750 quid, and the weeping widow says that’s too much, you must have something cheaper, and the vampire says well, there is a basic model MDF and veener for 500 quid if you don’t mind everyone seeing you didn’t give a fuck about the corpse… of course it wasn’t put like that, but that was the intended message…. his feet did touch the ground on the way out the door… just

Sorry, that last sigh and exhale, that’s it, Fred is dead, he no longer gives a shit about anything, his troubles are over.

I can’t even honestly claim to be paying my last respects, when he’s dead that’s it, too late to pay respect, too late for anything, and how can you pay respect surrounded by a bunch of fucking hypocrites, worse than a fucking wedding, at least there are bridesmaids to grope there…

No, I’ll be there because there is still one subject of that promise alive, and that means I do the taxi for them and get suited and booted and silent and dignified.

Y’all (da famileee) wanna judge me for fucking a mother and a daughter and being a deadbeat dad and being an ex con and anything else you wanna throw my way, fill yer fucking boots, but if you’re busy throwing the kitchen sink in there and other shit I did, be sure y’all include the fact I still pay heed to a promise I made to someone who has been dead a quarter of a century, and that’s the only reason I put up with your fucking company.

Y’all are entitled to make any demands you wish about my behaviour and attitudes and beliefs.

You just ain’t entitled to get any of that shit fulfilled.

Dignified funerals? I dunno, I’m liking the idea of when you know your time is coming just wandering off and never coming back, and nobody goes looking for you, then no matter how undignified and painful your own personal end is, no other cunt has to see you…. that or the old one about a nice quick and painless death was has by uncle Ted, unlike the deaths of his 74 passengers, who screamed all the way down the cliff… lol

Good shit.

Filed under: Wimminz — Tags: — wimminz @ 10:10 pm

I’m a fan of good visuals and diagrams, sadly in this powerpoint age apparently nobody else is, just going for the visually impressive.

But a good diagram doesn’t need to be drawn, if you can’t visualise it, it isn’t a good diagram.

Here’s one, let’s take as an example a CNC CO2 laser cutter / engraver.

For any given spec or size of machine, you can draw a line, and along that line you can plot the QUALITY of the components, from a crap tube that claims 100 watts output but probably won’t really see it, and which will have a working life of 1,000 hours if you are lucky, to a top spec tube that easily produces the claimed 100 watts, and which is certified for a 8,000 hour working life, minimum.

You can draw another line, and along this line you can plot the technical expertise, good design, good assembly, ergonomics, TECHNICAL EXCELLENCE and so on that the manufacturer puts in to the machine.

You can draw another line, and along this line you can plot COST or price.

You can put all three lines together to form a cube, and label the sides / axes as above, and say that all approximately 100 watt CO2 laser cutter / engravers will be a point somewhere in that cubic field.

Yeah, really neat, but it is fucking meaningless unless you take a statistically significant sample of said machines, inspect them, and plot each one one said visual diagram.

Do THAT and you will get something you did not expect.

Epilog and the yank stuff, yeah, great quality, great product, but high price too.

RS Laser, great product, great quality, but very reasonably priced.

Cheapo ebay flavour chinese stuff, average product, poor quality, but cheap.

and carry on till you have 40 or 50 points plotted in 3D

You’ll find that you cannot get a great product for cheap money… with one or two exceptions that stand out because the product is not great, but it is bloody good, bang per buck.

You’ll find that the cheapest are usually the worst products with the worst quality.

You’ll find that the most expensive really aren’t that much better than the reasonably priced, with some exceptions of course, at both ends of the distribution.

You’ll find that your brain starts to hurt, as there doesn’t seem to be a lot of logic to it all, some products are literally twice the price of others, some products could be made 100% better for 10% more money, it’s hard to work out on any of the products where the ticket price is distributed, and why the decision was made to build it that way.

Epilog is like Apple and iphones, it is a good product, but at a premium price, and a lot of the premium price goes to pay for the branding and marketing.

It could be smartphones, digital cameras, computers, cars, motorcycles, routers, flat screen displays, you’ll see the same thing everywhere.

Logically it doesn’t make sense, and if capitalism and free markets was anything more than a theory, a 3,000 dollar 50″ 1080p screen would be three times as good as a 1,000 dollar one, because there shouldn’t be *enough* wriggle room in those three axes of the visual idea cube to have it any other way…

If the 1,000 dollar one is nearly as good as the 3,000 dollar one, why isn’t the 3,000 dollar manufacturer using the same components as the 1,000 dollar one and dropping the price, or why isn’t the 1,000 dollar one being sold at 3,000, what is going on?

INTERMISSION
=================================

 

A genuine OKC profile, a 22 year old geeky chick from Hampshire, these are all, not edited, all, her answers to the subset of questions OKC classifies as sexual… IN THE ORDER THEY APPEAR.

Are you a virgin?
Skank Yes

Do you believe that regular sex is necessary in maintaining a healthy relationship?
Skank No

If you’re in a relationship you expect will last for the rest of your life, is it important to you that it be the most satisfying sexual relationship you have ever had?
Skank No I’m polyamorous, one of the advantages being relationships can have different things that make them wonderful.

Group sex (with 3 or more people):
Skank It seriously interests me.

Would you ever consider cutting a partner (who asked for it) in sexual play?
Skank Maybe A difficult one- I’m uncomfortable with knives and it would be a difficult thing to do safely. But I wouldn’t want to just dismiss a sexual request without giving it thought.

Is a tongue stud a turn-on?
Skank No

Receiving anal sex?
Skank I like it / I think I might like it

Regardless of future plans, what’s more interesting to you right now?
Skank Love

You’re in a new relationship and your partner admits that they have had 14 sexual partners. Does that sound like a lot to you?
Skank I guess, but It doesn’t change how I feel.

Would you ever consider a relationship where you would take on an exclusive sexual role as master or slave?
Skank No. As a switch I find the idea of taking on one role for a whole relationship, and this question makes it sound like a 24/7 thing, extreme.

Would you consider being in a relationship with someone who has had homosexual sex?

Skank Yes

Which do you like more? Be honest.
Skank Receiving massages

Are you fetish-friendly?
Skank Bring out the toys! ‘toys’ indeed. Yes. I’m friendly to kink.

Would you need to sleep with someone before you considered marrying them?
Skank Yes

Orgasms are clearly the most important part of sex.
Skank I disagree.

Would you rather…
Skank be tied up during sex Truly I enjoy both, but I had to chose one.

Have you ever had a sexual encounter with someone of the same sex?
Skank Yes, and I enjoyed myself.

Did you join OkCupid just so you could find people to have sex with?
Skank No

Would you honestly answer any question concerning your sexual history that a partner might ask?
Skank Yes. I think as long as it’s someone you care about there’s no point in not being honest.

Is there a such thing as having had too many sex partners?
Skank No

Do you believe contraception is morally wrong?
Skank No

Is a guy who’s slept with 100 girls a bad person?
Skank No

Which of the following would you be most disturbed to find in a 13-year-old child’s room?
Skank Weapons.

Is a girl who’s slept with 100 guys a bad person?
Skank No

Are some sex acts with consenting adults inherently wrong or immoral? Assume no unusual risk of injury.
Skank No

OK, so you’re a fucking poly-amorous kinky fetish friendly VIRGIN who also likes to TIUTA, and you 14 previous partners sounds like a lot, but 100 previous partners is something you’re Ok with…

A little disclaimer here, the profile in question was sent to me by a reader who lives extremely close to the skank in question, he asserts it is all quite genuine.

 ================================
INTERMISSION
=================================

You see, the two things are not unrelated.

The bitch is legally sane and legally rational, and she is just like the rest of the herd, some of whom will be working in various companies making various widgets and so on.

The profile SHE WROTE HERSELF, contains such obvious aberrations and mutually exclusive statements, and yet she herself is apparently completely unaware of this… the thought literally never entered her head… these things, which she claims about herself, are nonetheless invisible to her on a cognitive level.

As much as we might ridicule her, and rightly so, she is far from unique.

People do not just hold false views on things, they will hold false and mutually exclusive views on things, and no cognitive processes ever go anywhere near these things, so it is safe to say that no cognitive processes are involved in these things, and where these things are present, cognitive processes are absent.

And then you dig a little deeper, and find more false views on things, and so on, and so on, as you seek to find something somewhere in her head that could be identified by Mr Spock as being quite logical Craptain…

And you recoil with horror, because you can’t find anything, anywhere, all you see is shortcuts and conditioned reflex and stock answers.

And so you start looking elsewhere, you start looking at “successful” people, bankers and lawyers and politicians and doctors and managers and so on, and all you can find is more of the same, monkey brains sitting on top of lizard brains sitting on top of some wetware BIOS, and it is all MIMICKING intellect and cognition, it’s taking shortcuts like a motherfucker 24/7, whatever uses the least compute power and don’t kill em, good enough.

And you start looking at products in a new light, because they are all heavily dependent on human beings and the functioning of their brains.

Did Samsung copy the iPhone? Doesn’t matter, all you need to know is that when faced with a question, given a choice between spending compute energy on working an answer out, and looking around and seeing an already existing answer, and just taking that and using and making it fit somehow, for almost no compute energy, the low energy solution is taken, every, single, fucking, time…

Herds of beasts carving pathways through the savannah, less compute power than finding your own fucking way 10 feet off to the side.

———–

I’m typing this in fits and starts, I’m the death watch beatle, old boy at death’s door, lots of talk about EOL and DNR, but as usual it’s like the next rain, nobody knows exactly when it’s coming, could be later tonight, could be a few days, could be a few weeks, but nobody believes that.

Meanwhile notably all the wimminz are running around like cunts making spectacles of themselves, the old cunt is dying, but THEIR public displays of grief come first, and second comes arguing about his will… poor fucker isn’t even dead yet and they are arguing about how his meagre estate will be apportioned.

It’s a dying shame, literally, one of the old crew from the era when NOT using your fucking brain had rather immediate and often severe and some times fatal consequences.

Just one or two of the older ones there got it, talking about him at the fall of singapore, him on the channel patrol boats, him as a young man, him mellowing with age, him and his absolute sincerity and integrity.

They were the ones making sure the nurses were ok, making sure the doctors knew DNR, making sure he was peaceful and comfortable as can be expected, making sure he had the last rights, and from a friend too.

Just taking care of the good shit.

The Romanian Experiment

Filed under: Wimminz — Tags: , , , , , — wimminz @ 2:05 pm

Has finally come to a close.

1/ unless you test it by direct experimentation, a hypothesis by itself is useless.

2/ Romania is broke and fucked up and just entering the EU

3/ Wimminz in Romania will therefore flock to a reasonably decent looking, solvent, 50 something Englishman, for economic reasons alone, sod romance.

Now, I have *some* contacts with these countries, I bought the black bitch ignition system from some guys in Czecheslovakia, just yesterday I bought a USB CNC breakout box from some guys in Hungary, I spent some time working with some IBM Romania guys a couple of years ago, and so on.

So it was easy enough to set up this experiment, and do it *properly* to maximise the chances it would work, local exposure in the right places and so on… and having fucked Russian skanks in the past (see older posts) I was no stranger to the foreign bride scams as a method of employment either.

To me, this was a valid experiment, because “everyone knows” the Romanians are economic migrants and scum and will do anything for money and a foot in the door in a richer country…. I should say at the outset, I only did the experiment to prove that what everyone knows is total bullshit, but, even so, even I was somewhat surprised by how right I was proven.

Precisely zero response of *any* kind, not even a tickle, not even a spam or scam… sweet fuck all….

Taxi and catering and nursing firms *are* successfully hiring, but that is a legal contract where the economic migrant gets money and legal protections.

The immigrant hordes who want to get here at any cost? I don’t think so… it may be presented as a shit-hole over here, and to be sure relatively there is a lot of poverty, but to those fuckers that is their *home*

Leaving *home* takes very good reasons.

I can dig it, I come from a white “ex-pat” family from the glory days of that scene, after the war, the white engineer could go to far flung places and be very well paid, but shades of the taxi drivers coming here, the fucking paperwork was in order dude, it wasn’t some sort of take my chances mystery tour.

One of the guys I deal with has an 18 year old brother, he’d love to come and work in the UK, his problem is he dare not, his perfectly legal wife is 15 years old, so if they come here he will be arrested for rape and child abduction and god knows what else.

*home* is more attractive.

This “everyone knows” shit applies to everything, everyone knows the stocks and bonds markets are essential to a good economy.

Really?

Is that like marketing and shit too?

Very recently I have spent money with the guys at http://www.ignitech.cz/en/ and the guys at http://www.cncdrive.com/index.html and you know what, I spent money there because their shit is *cool*, and it is a good price, and I can get it in 48 hours, and frankly speaking there isn’t a (big commercial) commercial alternative.

http://www.rslaser.co.uk/ is another one, albeit based in the UK, but again building good kit with parts sourced internationally and adding local expertise and skills.

As Doug Stanhope says, the US spent 30 million dollars advertising the new 20 dollar bill, like he says, who is the fucking competition that needs fending off with advertising.

Can you imagine what any of the above companies could do with 20 million?

Sometimes, I’ll venture a little, a small gamble, I did this for https://www.facerig.com/ a while ago, why, because I remember Max Headroom, and because I see how as time progresses and technology evolves, the perfectly innocent photos that got uploaded a few years ago are now liable to be routinely scanned and tagged by facial recognition technology…. but then I remember a great little company that invented a developed Autoroute, before MS bought them out, before they got made obsolete by Google Maps & Navigation.

http://www.macrium.com is another one I spent money on. Another small UK firm.

You can look at real time updates maps, showing ships identified by their transponders, or planes identified by theirs, military shit excepted of course.

My firm is one of many that does this routinely for company vehicles and mobiles, it makes business sense for them, they get a call from a client and just look at the real-time map and see how far away the nearest engineer is, in my private business hat I do it for my clients, here is a link, track me in real-time, those who ask me to do 9 different sites a day, 10 minute job in each one, fucking love it.

The telcos have the same live maps for ALL mobiles, for values of real-time that have screen update rates of the order of 60 to 300 seconds.

There is no shortage of REAL data, and yet, everyone is wedded to what “everyone knows” and when the real data is introduced to what “everyone knows” then the real data gets filtered, goal seeking, exclude everything that does not agree with what “everyone knows”

For example, in a different country and time and place I could get killed for saying this, because it is true.

“Everyone knows” that when there is an uprising the first thing the state does is shut down the TV stations and the mobile phone networks, they do this to stop the terr’rists communicating… everyone knows this.

No.

The truth is, everyone has gadgets, and any commander knows the one thing you absolutely cannot succeed at is ensuring your troops ONLY carry regulation equipment and NOTHING else, so all the cops and military and covert ops types carry an iphone or something, which means they are not merely able to be tracked, the very fact that the device works means it IS being tracked.

It isn’t just that you can track a bunch of phones, you are tracking KNOWN individuals who own those phones, so what the fuck is Herbert Hoover doing at the junction of Parkovyi and Michurina in Mykhailivka?

And if you know he is there, it’s a piece of piss to put someone on the ground and intercept his encrypted phone call data, and decrypt it later….

So when Nuland phones Herbie Hoover and says “Fuck the EU”, and you release that conversation, you aren’t just saying, by the way, we overheard what you said when you were talking about us, bitch…

What you are saying is I know where every single one of your mother-fuckers is, in real time, with the possible exception of the handful who someone managed to enforce equipment discipline on, provided none of your other crew knows where they are either, provided they themselves are running silent… which renders them pretty fucking useless innit.

Shutting down the mobile networks shuts down the tracking of individuals.

That is its purpose.

This is the problem with “everyone knows”, everyone knows the Israelis are our friends and the Russians are our enemy, so it was pretty easy to engineer the USS Liberty, because “everyone knows” is working in your favour.

Iraqi WMD, Syrian poison gas, Odessa killings, same shit with the economy, or the state, or the legal system, or family breakdown, “everyone knows” how things work and what is going on and what to do to make things better.

Here is where the shit gets serious.

Everyone knows, nobody wants to start WW3, everyone knows, nobody would actually use tactical battlefield nukes, everyone knows, nobody would actually refuse all trade and turn the fucking taps off on the gas fields and shut down the grain shipments and leave others to freeze and starve or go to war, I could go on in this vein for quite some time.

But none of that is where the shit gets serious.

No, the shit gets serious where every single adult in the USA, say 275 million out of the 300 million total, have fuck all to do with DC and the Pentagon and White House and so on.

Not done in their name, not done with their approval, not done with their acceptance.

Everybody knows, that 275 million will never be held to account or treated as being responsible for decades of geopolitical meddling and warmongering and human rights abuses and economic despotism.

Everybody knows, and yet, if those 275 million are NOT held personally, collectively and individually responsible for every single action of the state, it will be the first time in human history this has happened.

US troops dragged “innocent” German citizens along to the concentration camps, to show them what they “allowed” to happen in their own back yard, and war reparations and restrictions and nation dividing followed, Hiroshima and Nagasaki happened because the “innocent” Japanese people “allowed” their emperor to wage war on the US…..  Iraq, Iran, etc, all fucked over because the “innocent” peoples “allowed” the evil terr’rists to thrive in their midst.

History is replete with it at every level, from nations down to individual households who raised one bad apple that raped and killed some local kids, everyone else eventually turns up at their door and holds all these “innocent” people responsible for what they “allowed” to happen.

Scared yet?

In real life, I have hung out with many Germans, hell, go back 400 years and I am one, Germanic anyway, get some beers in the bastards and chill and they will all tell you, WW2, cutting the nation in half, you can’t, it’s like splitting a family up, it leaves long lasting resentment, and so does being told you are all responsible for Adolf, because yeah, he did a lot of bad shit, but so did those he rose to power against, and he did a lot of good shit too, and times *were* fucking hard, and whatever real and genuine feelings of gratitude there was towards the allies in general and the good ole US of A at the end of the war, part of it was just general gratitude that the fucking war itself was over, but what followed, no, that didn’t win any long term friendships or loyalties either.

NOT the kind of conversation a yank or a canuck or an arab or a chink can have with a German, same as a New York “irishman” who drinks green beer on St Patrick’s day can’t have a discussion with a bunch of Irishmen about the north and south and troubles and so on.

Ukraine is the same, some of the guys in Romania and Slovakia and Belarus, and indeed in Russia, can have such a conversation with the Ukes, but you and I cannot.Ethnolingusitic_map_of_ukraine

“Everyone knows” we live in a modern multicultural digital age melting pot, and we are so much more advanced than the wogs with all their tribal wars and shit, won’t be no Hutu and Tutsi here, oh wait, Serbia.. Ukraine…

Uniting the two Germany’s did one thing, it put the family back together, erased the arbitrary shit the allies imposed, and made it very difficult, save for outside influence, for there to be a civil war.

However much a former east and west German might hate one another, at least they are family, if you want to piss them both off, come in and start extracting their minerals and giving them fuck all in return, and take over their states.

EDIT

Shouldn’t really have to say this, thought it should be self explanatory from saying the USA would be the first place in human history where the people were NOT held responsible for what their leaders did, so, yeah, of fucking COURSE I am applying that to myself as a UK citizen too…
