00:00 geert; and a bit sauna not unhealthy too!!
00:00 t0talist; in this city here, it's only dirt and junk, i have to cycle dozens of miles through city jams, before i could take a breath of fresh air
00:01 geert; nah if you willing to see it you get to see plenty nice stuff too
00:01 geert; it say a lot about the mood you currently got
00:01 geert; im sure theres plenty nice even in the city that looks like junk
00:01 t0talist; there isn't
00:01 geert; yes there is
00:01 t0talist; and i had moved to many cities
00:01 geert; and you might wana try some cooking too
00:02 geert; just cook up some nice tasty, invite family or some elderly over
00:02 geert; try take the so called breath some more man
00:02 geert; you appear as if you neglected that kind of breathing longer than is healthy already
00:02 t0talist; this one, is the worst, and it is representative, for what i had enjoyed, in "german" cities, before 1990 in the east, developing leukemia from air pollution as a child
00:02 geert; try not focus on the negatives
00:03 geert; you dont need forget about it or ignore it
00:03 t0talist; gladly, i recovered from this, but nowadays, it's a never ending nightmare
00:03 geert; just dont focus all too much onto it
00:03 geert; theres more positive than negative around, even in the midst of the city looking like junk
00:03 geert; theres more possibilities than difficulties
00:03 geert; otherwise the mind probably get dense
00:03 t0talist; that's how i do it: i try to go to the grocery store 7o'clock in the morning, when most of the anti-socials aren't awake yet
00:03 geert; you should realie that
00:03 geert; realize*&
00:04 t0talist; there's nothing remaining to discuss
00:04 geert; try get a bit chatter, try help out some animals like walk with some shelter dogs
00:04 geert; stuff like that
00:04 t0talist; and there's nothing to say, to falsify reality and facts
00:04 geert; i get it you dont wanna pollute the view with many a-socials
00:04 geert; sure lots of negative stuff yea, but still more positive around
00:04 geert; so it tell tale about your focus
00:05 geert; which dont seem so healthy
00:05 geert; its not that there isnt more positive around than negative, there is, sure, a one hundred percent sure
00:05 geert; you got issues dealing the focus
00:05 t0talist; just inhale the stinking air for some weeks for yourself, then give advice, to cycle in city traffic jams
00:05 geert; you gotto breath a bit maor so to speak
00:05 t0talist; it's ridiculous
00:05 geert; i get to know about such things, preferably dont worry too much about it
00:06 t0talist; and best of it, pay energy prices 1000% inflated, to subsidize all those highly productive vehicle owner
00:06 t0talist; s
00:06 geert; i dont think its really the best of it
00:06 geert; but it does appear kind of on top of the mind you got
00:06 geert; you gotto seek some moar and better 'breathing' so to speak
00:06 geert; you just GOT to.
00:06 geert; even if it involves biking for hours to get in better area
00:06 geert; and i would suggest then to try relocate to where it dont take you hours
00:06 t0talist; yes, the corrupt bureaurcrats had molested me with this fraud for more than 6 month
00:07 t0talist; and, honestly, i am running out of patience
00:07 geert; you gave them the corrupt criminal influence they wanted it seem to me, almost like a present
00:07 geert; y would give em goons such presents?
00:07 geert; man you got to take some better 'breath' kk
00:07 geert; you got to
00:08 geert; it seem you start to get 'dense mind', like you seem stop realizing theres much more good around than bad
00:08 geert; theres much more positive around than negative
00:08 geert; you dont have to ignore facts about negative
00:08 geert; but you should focus more towards the possibilities
00:08 geert; theres MUCH more possibilities around than difficulties, no question about that, its fact.
00:08 geert; FACT.
00:08 t0talist; i archived the documents, i need, to remind me of the possibilities
00:08 geert; but your focus seems dense
00:09 geert; you got work to do there
00:09 geert; duties
00:09 geert; get some better breath as an example
00:09 t0talist; pardon what?
00:09 geert; try gain better focus, more / better fresh air
00:09 geert; dont molest yourself, preferably not, and dont let others molest you
00:09 geert; nothing to pardon me for there
00:10 geert; and you dont need any shit paper work to remind you about it
00:10 t0talist; i am not the one, who escalated any of this
00:10 t0talist; and there is that much i could do to improve the situation: nothing
00:10 geert; its just a simple FACT, any day and any night in any place throughout the globe, regardless whatever misery/difficulties, MORE possibilities around
00:10 geert; i dont say you to blame for all the negative or something likewise
00:10 geert; i say you should refocus
00:11 geert; focus shifted from much more possibilities to much less difficulties
00:11 t0talist; what i will do however, is to remind, of the crimes committed, crimes against humanity
00:11 geert; reshift that focus, get some better breath so to speak is suggested
00:11 t0talist; by a corrupt and murderous regime, in government, here in "germany", who portray themselves with "higher morale"
00:11 t0talist; while they're worse than nazis ever were
00:11 t0talist; and they had killed more too
00:11 geert; many many people tryna corrupt shit, and even call crimes 'common interst'
00:12 geert; but you should not let them poison the mind you got into something less productive dense crap
00:12 geert; you are not obliged to give them criminal fuckups the influence they want with you
00:12 MinceR; https://pleated-jeans.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/funny-pictures-5-2-23-4.jpg
00:12 geert; wtf are you thinking?
00:12 geert; you need to get some better breath as it appears to me
00:12 geert; breath dont just mean air in literal absolute manner
00:12 geert; but you get what it means :)
00:13 geert; like e.g. cooking some bit nice/healthy/tasty stuff, try find the huge positive things like a single growing piece of grass even if it appear small, try to discover the huge in it
00:14 geert; push a bit time into that kind of stuff as an example
00:14 t0talist; geert: you know what, just pay 20Euros/liter E10 patrol... enjoy, i recommend you better breath, when shouting in anger
00:14 geert; seriously otherwise you might get moar dense mind and lesser apropriate focus instead of other way around
00:14 t0talist; petrol
00:14 t0talist; that's the new justice, just for you
00:14 geert; im not taking that crap so you might try offer me it but i just dont consider it in my life
00:14 t0talist; and besides, you won't receive any salary for your work
00:14 geert; i dont care what them goons want
00:14 geert; they want so much crap
00:15 geert; i already know
00:15 geert; but i dont have to shift focus from much more good to much less bad
00:15 geert; no i dont take the offer
00:15 geert; and i wish you dont consider their crap so much
00:15 DaemonFC; I just messed up my haircut and had to do it all as a buzz cut.
00:16 geert; its not so messed up, its rather non conformist
00:16 DaemonFC; Oh well, my hair grows like garden weeds. It'll all be back in a month.
00:16 geert; you appear as if you should refocus too
00:16 geert; what the heck this goons got lots of effect on you people
00:16 geert; they want it, them goons, wtf wrong with you give them goons the goon misery crap they cook up and want with you?
00:17 *t0talist has quit (Quit: connection closed.)
00:18 geert; it think some miserable shit might even consider themselves succesful if they see some negativism in some places
00:18 geert; that would rather stimulate them cook up more miserable crap and want more miserable influence with their fellows
00:18 geert; preferably try refocus, there is MUCH more possiblities around than difficulties, any day and any night
00:19 geert; and people in here should push it moar to t0talist too if he get back

03:30 TR News; Apple opening one single store in a country with about 1,500,000,000 people is a perfect metaphor for state of Apple. The "media" making a big deal of it (lots of Apple puff pieces) says a lot about today's "media" (PR industry).

12:01 schestowitz; does not even have his own blog
12:01 schestowitz; so he's pestering us her in irc for years, 2/47
12:01 DaemonFC; They want to claim that as many people as possible are "insured" even if it would ruin them to use it.
12:01 schestowitz; while we try to get RealWork done
12:01 schestowitz; got 4 article drafts in the making
12:01 DaemonFC; And redirect as much taxpayer money to premiums for insurance you can't actually use as possible.
12:02 schestowitz; in between catching up with links and issues
12:02 DaemonFC; I have to use an APP to manage Mandy's health insurance and look up providers that are in network now.
12:02 schestowitz; insurance sucks in uis
12:02 schestowitz; *us
12:02 DaemonFC; Before Obamacare, $600 deductible was considered "high".
12:02 schestowitz; it is overpriced because hospitals and care are
12:02 DaemonFC; And now $2500, $3000, or even $4000 is "typical".
12:02 schestowitz; so even if you can afford health insurance, prices are sky-high
12:03 schestowitz; and you can lose tyhat if you lose the job
12:03 schestowitz; *that
12:03 DaemonFC; schestowitz, At my first job, I had health insurance that had a $10 co-pay at the doctor.
12:03 schestowitz; so that puts pressure on people to keep enslaved
12:03 schestowitz; for fear for their lives
12:03 DaemonFC; $10 for brand name medication, free generics.
12:03 schestowitz; not just inncome
12:03 DaemonFC; $50 facility fee for going to the ER.
12:03 DaemonFC; By the time Obummercare came around, I was uninsured with a ~$15,000 hospital, ambulance, and physician bill.

12:05 DaemonFC; schestowitz, I had to check to see if Mandy's insurance required a referral to a specialist.
12:05 schestowitz; how is maverick?
12:05 schestowitz; dead with cancer in the skull?
12:06 DaemonFC; It's something a lot of them used to do to drive up the cost and gatekeep healthcare that way.
12:06 DaemonFC; Force you to go ask your doctor (and incur a bill for no reason) to get a permission slip for the insurance company, before you could see the specialist about that mole or you know, your allergies, or something.
12:06 DaemonFC; It was just completely stupid. Should be illegal.

12:17 DaemonFC; He doesn't draw anyone who isn't White, and he only really draws in White people who are very old or totally stark raving mad.
12:17 DaemonFC; And sometimes they force their children to go.
12:17 DaemonFC; But like, 90%+ are really old.
12:17 DaemonFC; schestowitz, Shitter's Full

12:17 schestowitz; look it up
12:17 schestowitz; it's more complex than this
12:18 DaemonFC; The White segment of the US population goes down 1-2 points each 4 year election cycle.
12:18 DaemonFC; And COVID whacked the elderly and tore them a new asshole.
12:18 DaemonFC; So they wonder why they've been striking out badly even though few actually like Biden.

12:19 DaemonFC; Last year there were more non-White Americans born than White Americans.
12:19 DaemonFC; So they have a very bad demographic problem that's well underway.
12:19 DaemonFC; They rely on an aging Whites-only population.
12:19 DaemonFC; So they'll continue to do quite well in certain states.

12:20 DaemonFC; But it may reach a point where they couldn't win a national election if they tried their best.
12:20 DaemonFC; I haven't met a Republican that could sit and listen to anyone who disagrees with them in the slightest.
12:21 DaemonFC; If anything they prove George Carlin right. Don't try to argue with an idiot. They'll only bring you down to their level and win with experience.
12:21 DaemonFC; MinceR, ^
12:22 DaemonFC; Bill Nye "debated" Ken Ham but it was a publicity thing, right? I mean, I think Ken Ham put on a very weak performance. He got trounced. But I don't think anyone left with their minds changed.
12:22 DaemonFC; Because we're at this point where you either agree with Science or you agree with bullshit, and if you're stupid enough to agree with bullshit then what will change your mind?
12:22 DaemonFC; Ham spoke for all of those people when the moderator asked what could change their mind.
12:23 DaemonFC; Bill Nye said he'd change his mind about the existence of God if there was solid evidence.
12:23 DaemonFC; Ham said "Nothing".
12:23 DaemonFC; I would say I'm some sort of an Agnostic. Like, I don't mean to say "wishy washy sort of believes in God".
12:24 DaemonFC; I mean, I haven't been to church in years because nobody has shown me the evidence.
12:24 DaemonFC; It's not easy for me to continue to believe in things where there is no direct evidence.
12:25 DaemonFC; Christians think they're being clever when they say you can't see air so air must not exist.
12:25 DaemonFC; And so, they don't even know what to see when I say, "Oh well, you can sense it. You can feel a breeze. You can measure the gases with scientific instruments, I mean, you can prove it's there."
12:26 DaemonFC; "You can prove what the percentage of each gas in the "air" actually is, with cheap instruments."
12:26 DaemonFC; Then they fall back on "Well, you're here. Isn't that proof?"
12:26 DaemonFC; You go, "Well, it's proof that I'm here."
12:28 DaemonFC; They go, "So what created you? Nothing?" and so you say "I don't know what created everything. I don't know what created everything anymore than you know what created everything. You have a book that was written a couple of thousand years ago which your parents handed you along with their religion. It's authoritative to you because it's old and your parents indoctrinated you."
12:28 DaemonFC; "If you were born in some other place, you might believe in something else, or nothing, because every religion wants members and so they lay down a commandment to teach your kids about it AND that there will be divine cosmic punishment if they even THINK about asking questions. This is child abuse."
12:29 DaemonFC; Religion spreads through child abuse.
12:30 DaemonFC; So then they move on and say "Well, don't you feel bad if you're all alone, don't know why you're here, and will just die one day?"
12:31 DaemonFC; I say, "Maybe, but I feel worse about living in this culture." What culture? "Well, a culture where I'm forced to watch movies and marketing starring people that don't look anything like me, who have to project perfection all of the time. That's even more damaging, psychologically, than an existential crisis."
12:32 DaemonFC; When you go out in public and nobody looks like the people in the television commercials and shows.

12:52 schestowitz; matey berated me for it
12:52 schestowitz; like i was denying you "luxury" items
12:52 schestowitz; but my logic was not that,
12:52 schestowitz; it was class insecurity... leading you into a trap that never ends
12:53 schestowitz; lots of tall bills
12:53 schestowitz; it's why i stopped driving, among other factors
12:53 DaemonFC; schestowitz, I'm just going to take it to Chevy service from now on.
12:53 schestowitz; even $1000 spent a year on repairs, if you are lucky, add up to 10k in 10 yeras
12:53 schestowitz; not counting all the "other" bills
12:53 DaemonFC; I got burned at the other shop. They brought in some new people and I've had to fix like 3 things now that they did that were not good.
12:53 DaemonFC; One almost ruined the transmission.
12:54 schestowitz; it's an old car
12:54 DaemonFC; schestowitz, They fucked up those cooler lines by rushing the servicing.
12:54 schestowitz; i don't say "old" lightly
12:54 schestowitz; 2006 is rather old
12:54 schestowitz; for a car
12:54 DaemonFC; 2008
12:54 schestowitz; so "luxury"... maybe]
12:54 schestowitz; but yesteryear
12:54 DaemonFC; The Chevy dealer said that someone fucked up a bolt as well as the line blowing out.
12:54 DaemonFC; So I think the other shop went to rush the transmission service and messed up the cooler lines.
12:54 DaemonFC; And it was leaking slowly.
12:55 schestowitz; the newer the car, the harder to repai
12:55 DaemonFC; Glad the Chevy place saw it. You want to talk expensive, rebuild a transmission.
12:55 DaemonFC; Whoa boy.
12:55 schestowitz; the very old cars did not have electricity
12:55 schestowitz; it's very hard to fix anytrhing electric on your own
12:55 DaemonFC; schestowitz, The transmissions are too expensive to replace.
12:55 schestowitz; they say you need car electrocians
12:55 DaemonFC; Keep the one you have happy.

12:55 schestowitz; now they need to import some $3000 blob from taiwan

12:56 schestowitz; fuild is eay
12:56 DaemonFC; You end up with old burned dirty fluid and it wrecks the gears and you're supposed to buy a new car at that point.

17:17 DaemonFC; "Yes, a bad control arm bushing can cause vibration when you're braking. When the bushing wears out, it can no longer provide the proper support for the control arm. This can cause the control arm to move more than it's supposed to, which can lead to vibration. The vibration is usually most noticeable when you're braking, because the braking force puts additional stress on the control arm."
17:17 DaemonFC; -Bard
17:17 schestowitz; we will reward and promote another company
17:18 DaemonFC; "Control arm bushings can fail due to age, mileage, or a combination of both. The older a car is, the more likely the control arm bushings are to be worn out. This is because the bushings are made of rubber, and rubber wears out over time. The more miles a car has on it, the more likely the control arm bushings are to be worn out. This is because the bushings are constantly being subjected to stress and vibration."
17:18 DaemonFC; schestowitz, MOAR rubber rot.
17:18 DaemonFC; "If you think your control arm bushings may be worn out, it's important to have them checked by a qualified mechanic as soon as possible. A bad control arm bushing can be a safety hazard, and it can also lead to premature wear on other suspension components."
17:19 DaemonFC; "Yes, a bad rack and pinion can cause serpentine belt chirp. The rack and pinion is a part of the steering system that helps you turn the wheels. It is powered by the serpentine belt, which is also used to power other accessories in the car, such as the alternator, air conditioning compressor, and water pump.
17:19 DaemonFC; If the rack and pinion is damaged, it can cause the serpentine belt to slip. This can cause the belt to chirp or squeal. The chirping or squealing is caused by the belt rubbing against the pulleys."

19:04 DaemonFC; The Crown Victoria was not a MacPherson strut system, so you had upper and lower ball joints and it made sense to just replace the part that got broken and leave the rest alone.
19:04 DaemonFC; But on a MacPherson system, you have a couple parts doing the work of like five or six components of a more traditional suspension.
19:04 DaemonFC; The part cost goes way up, but you're just paying a mechanic to take them off and replace the whole part.
19:04 DaemonFC; So the job cost goes down, assuming a shop in both cases.
19:05 DaemonFC; The MacPherson Strut system is the ideal system for most people because they'll go to a mechanic and just pay them to toss some parts and bolt new ones on and do an alignment.
19:07 DaemonFC; schestowitz, It can just go to a recycling yard where they pay for scrap and melt it down.
19:07 DaemonFC; If you're smart you'll just redo the entire front end suspension while you're in there.

20:02 DaemonFC; Both parties have gone off the deep end in different ways and it's just like how do you want your country screwed up and who do you want doing it?
20:03 DaemonFC; Do you want a Nazi or do you want Jamie Dimon's little bitch, Joe Biden, appointing Disinformation Ministers and Trans people who are utterly fucking crazy. And by utterly fucking crazy, I don't just mean "because they're Trans", although it certainly doesn't help.
20:04 DaemonFC; I mean, like, they obviously have bipolar disorder riding on top of the gender dysphoria, and instead of treating any of it, people egg them on.
20:04 DaemonFC; It's almost like they're doing it to us on purpose so we're too busy gawking to notice the looting.
20:05 DaemonFC; I keep telling my mom that Trump was what made Biden possible.
20:06 DaemonFC; Trump moved the goalpost to the point where a guy who could never make it past the first few states in a primary election could beat him.
20:06 DaemonFC; The Republicans are actually responsible for Joe Biden too.
20:07 DaemonFC; Because by voting for Trump they lowered the bar and made this possible.

21:38 DaemonFC; I told them do the new rack and pinion, tie rod ends, both lower control arms, and an alignment. New belt if it's still squeaking.
21:38 DaemonFC; Yikes.
21:38 DaemonFC; It recommended a front brake job but I can't see where the brakes are warped or damaged.
21:39 DaemonFC; So I'm going to wait and see how it actually drives once I get the new control arms on it and see if the vibrations go away.
