[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] 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.
[12:06] DaemonFC dead with cancer in the skull?
[12:07] DaemonFC Well, right before McCain died, he voted no on Trump's "healthcare" bill which would have been even worse.
[12:07] DaemonFC Trump planned to make total junk policies legal and shift the subsidies to rich people.

[12:16] DaemonFC The only good thing about the "Trump movement" is that you look at it and it's very clear, two things are very clear.
[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.

[12:19] 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 it was class insecurity... leading you into a trap that never ends

[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] DaemonFC Change the fluid even if it doesn't say to.
[12:55] schestowitz now they need to import some $3000 blob from taiwan

[12:56] DaemonFC The fluid wears out but they call it "sealed transmission with lifetime fluid" now, which is bullshit.
[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.

[12:58] schestowitz so you need to power up the car to open the bonnet
[12:58] DaemonFC schestowitz, The drivetrain in these 3800 engines are the best part of the car.
[12:58] schestowitz or have batteries on or something

[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."

[19:03] TR Bot OpenText CEO: Micro Focus buy is an enteprise portfolio play The Register
[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 I can't even stand to look at this mess right now.
[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.
[21:39] DaemonFC We can come back to the brakes later if it comes to that.

[22:18] DaemonFC $675 for the front axle is crazy.
[22:18] DaemonFC Buick is actually cheaper than that.
