[00:01:06] login Esjay: the chinese version of gossip as a form of social credit would be guanxi

[00:02:53] login of sitting at the office, logout

[00:02:55] login and working

[00:03:14] login why? better than working in a mine

[00:03:21] login and better paying too

[00:03:33] login or in a tesla factory in the US (which runs 24/7)

[00:05:17] login rich in skills, not particularly so

[00:05:31] login in that sense, ferridae is quite rich

[00:06:25] login If I could survive and thrive starting from 0 with only my certificates and body, then i'd consider myself rich

[00:06:39] login which i would still not consider true

[00:06:44] login what about you, logout?

[00:06:50] login are you rich?

[00:07:01] login or in ability

[00:07:14] login or in a self-made way

[00:07:33] login any and all that would allow you to thrive in the present and future

[00:09:25] login in an ideal world, that would represent an opportunity to someone with money

[00:14:46] login a horse in NY

[00:15:28] login oh, ny state

[00:16:18] login i did not know keeping a horse could mean a tax writeoff for airbnbs and apartments in ny state

[00:19:20] login read this, logout: https://www.quora.com/Why-is-becoming-rich-so-tough/answer/Hector-Quintanilla?no_redirect=1

[00:19:55] login that's real wealth

[00:19:58] login smooth hands

[00:20:15] login the wrinkles are in the brain

[00:35:34] login it's amazing, irish666

[00:37:22] login imagine if a putin AI announcement like this got leaked

[00:37:53] login remember that japanese soldier who never received the message that the war had ended?

[00:46:29] login https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiroo_Onoda

[00:46:56] login if your russian commander told you the war was over, would you believe it?

[00:47:03] login or would you check social media to confirm it

[00:47:56] login quite similar to how the russian army let wagner protest in russia

[00:49:55] login > Onoda and Suzuki became friends, but Onoda still refused to surrender, saying that he was waiting for orders from a superior officer. Suzuki returned to Japan with photographs of himself and Onoda as proof of their encounter, and the Japanese government located Onoda's commanding officer, Major Yoshimi Taniguchi, who had long surrendered and since become a bookseller.

[00:50:02] login from officer to bookseller

[00:50:32] login Their commanding officers would have been unsure too (russian army's)

[00:51:19] login the wagner protestors were not being violent (other than shooting a helicopter down i think)

[00:51:40] login 6 helicopters and a plane

[00:54:57] login > There’s still a 1 in 292.2 million chance for a lucky winner to score the Powerball jackpot, which climbed to an estimated $725 million on Monday.

[00:55:10] login ferridae: tried and true methods of war

[00:55:36] login before stable borders, i wonder if trenches between 'enemy' territories were just a normal fixture

[00:56:05] login and no man's land everywhere

[00:56:39] login > There’s still a 1 in 292.2 million chance for a lucky winner to score the Powerball jackpot, which climbed to an estimated $725 million on Monday.

[00:56:52] login isn't this positive expected value?

[00:57:01] login i forgot i had already pasted it

[00:57:08] login genuinely

[00:57:19] login i should be concerned about myself tbh \g

[00:57:53] login was it just an attention deficit?

[00:58:07] login the rebuilding will cost as much as the destruction

[00:58:46] login final season of money heist had nice views of kherson

[00:59:13] login yeah

[00:59:31] login it will lead to an enmity between russians and ukrainians and instability in the region for generations

[00:59:44] login similar to between china and japan

[01:00:15] login that won't happen though

[01:00:34] login no, i think the upcoming taiwanese election will resolve the issue

[01:00:46] login a kind of humiliation for taiwan though

[01:00:58] login china and taiwan could have a good-friday-type agreement

[01:01:06] login open border, two systems = more resilience

[01:01:22] login it's generational

[01:01:35] login i think taiwan would just break from the west and ship chips to china

[01:01:40] login what can the US do then?

[01:02:15] login taiwan and china already has a lot of trade between them

[01:02:17] login *have

[01:02:27] login tsmc was opening factories in china for older nodes already

[01:02:43] login there are dialects of chinese inside china too

[01:03:13] login unfortunately, being neighbours does not ensure full sovereignity

[01:03:17] login it is an unfortunate truth

[01:03:44] login i think unification will be very difficult

[01:04:01] login if china gets nuclear subs, then the equation will change

[01:04:10] login and blockading taiwanese exports could be possible, via sea

[01:04:30] login it all depends on the upcoming taiwanese election

[01:04:37] login no, the nuke is to deter america from intervening

[01:05:07] login there is no way to detect nuclear subs underwater if they don't come to the surface for 6+ months

[01:05:20] login nuclear = nuclear-powered subs with nuclear payloads

[01:06:31] login yeah, but so was the netherlands and the UK

[01:06:36] login but they didn't get obliterated

[01:06:43] login and both are friends with the current one

[01:06:48] login yeah, that's also true

[01:07:02] login it's a veto on the word

[01:07:03] login *world

[01:07:30] login Ukraine wishes it kept its nukes

[01:07:37] login South Africa is an interesting case

[01:08:24] login yeah, no peace

[01:08:27] login the chinese are trying

[01:09:02] login air defence identification zone

[01:09:12] login it's a buffer around taiwanese airspace

[01:09:45] login i think allowing taiwanese leadership to send someone to make rules in beijing

[01:10:00] login and someone from beijing to be part of the taiwanese system

[01:10:15] login will mean both get to influence policy in the other, and free movement of people and trade between the two

[01:10:26] login The US will never sanction Taiwan because of its chips

[01:10:42] login Not a clean win for Chinese mainland, nor for Taiwan, but peace is thus achieved

[01:11:02] login you could have referendums every 5 years or 10 years to change or update the system

[01:11:15] login and keep pushing the day of reckoning out

[01:12:15] login interesting thing is, taiwan considers itself independent and doesn't claim sovereignity over the mainland anymore

[01:12:19] login but the opposite is not true

[01:12:37] login in the original agreement, both claimed the other to be a part of itself

[01:13:17] login historically, the communist party of china was a rebel movement in the republic of china

[01:13:30] login isn't it interesting that the chips show up in areas like south korea and taiwan?

[01:13:40] login both places with considerable geopolitical uncertainty

[01:14:02] login NK shouldn't do that

[01:14:10] login NK could do better if it integrated with china better

[01:14:19] login but it could destabilise the leadership

[01:14:40] login but they have their own nukes now

[01:14:42] login and hackers

[01:14:50] login correct

[01:15:12] login If the rest of the world ends, NK can still survive

[01:15:17] login that's resilience

[01:15:33] login or bacteria

[01:15:37] login yeah

[01:15:54] login Vietnam did well integrating

[01:16:07] login but the northern side is still poorer than the southern side

[01:16:25] login Pure capitalism doesn't work either

[01:16:30] login things become too expensive

[01:16:41] login Yeah, trade is a beautiful thing

[01:16:55] login and if you become unlucky, you fall through the crack

[01:17:03] login through no fault of your own

[01:17:46] login The biggest thing the UK got out of the end of WW2 was that its debts to its colonies got 'cancelled'

[01:22:42] login i avoid things that make me cry

[01:23:52] login sup

[01:24:25] login youtube?

[01:26:28] login you know, it can lead to abnormal brain development

[01:26:58] login but your social skills don't seem bad

[01:27:19] login hello }, are you anna?

[01:27:34] login ferridae: teach your skills plz

[01:27:41] login i have the same problem

[01:28:01] login if i look at people's face and see their expression change, i can't continue speaking

[01:29:25] login the more people you elevate, the higher the chance of conflict

[01:29:44] login it's not common

[01:29:58] login common sense is the kind of sense one wishes were common

[01:30:47] login my mum is recovering currently

[01:31:21] login ferridae: food in ex's house?

[01:31:35] login i would have left a raspberry pi hidden there

[01:31:47] login well done, ferridae haha

[01:31:54] login you turned out to be a real spy

[01:32:10] login no wonder she has paranoia

[01:32:17] login illegal too

[01:32:31] login it's not admissible in court

[01:32:42] login oh, the house is video-bugged too?

[01:32:58] login it's big brother stuff

[01:33:10] login hope you don't have anything in the bedroom

[01:33:38] login will it be admissible?

[01:33:53] login i guess, since you were there and it might be one-party consent state

[01:34:27] login one has to be a certain kind of crazy to make it out of the 'hood

[01:35:08] login from her perspective, you just gave her some pain and disappeared

[01:35:14] login truck is from work right?

[01:35:21] login physical pain, i mean

[01:35:44] login if she seeks some kind of therapist after this, i'd consider it a net win

[01:35:46] login for her

[01:36:08] login Has anything like this happened to you before? Or is this the craziest experience yet

[01:36:57] login now that you aren't there, all recordings from then on and continued installation is illegal, right?

[01:37:21] login she can get back into God

[01:37:29] login and have a relationship with Jesus again

[01:37:38] login and leave the heretic tarots :P

[01:38:05] login God fears her

[01:38:21] login God's plan is not revealed through tarots though

[01:38:32] login She could keep a dog

[01:38:40] login oh, she has a dog

[01:38:53] login She could travel to another country

[01:39:19] login It can't be scarier than the 'hood

[01:39:36] login She's stupid, she should travel some

[01:39:51] login is she afraid she'll come back to everything taken from her?

[01:40:19] login when will she retire anyway

[01:40:30] login and who is in her will

[01:41:05] login to get to retirement age?

[01:41:19] login how does she own airbnbs bought with raw cash?

[01:41:45] login how does one even get title without a bank transfer?

[01:42:16] login so she isn't free either

[01:42:33] login no wonder she's stressed out

[01:43:02] login So someone laundered her drug money, her boss has all her money

[01:43:39] login and someone else has a bank account to actually buy property

[01:43:53] login Is it in her legal name?

[01:44:20] login if she wrongs her boss and guy (chris?), is she going to get physical threats?

[01:44:51] login this sounds like a criminal enterprise to me

[01:45:32] login the airbnb is the way the money is being laundered

[01:45:40] login all repairs and stuff paid in cash

[01:46:12] login it may or may not work

[01:46:19] login not an easy business

[01:46:33] login yeah, the negative cashflow ones can get hairy

[01:47:11] login I heard a footballer was approached by a woman he claimed was paid by a third party to approach him

[01:47:21] login a honey trap essentially

[01:47:49] login Are you sure, ComputerTech?

[01:47:54] login perhaps you can donate sperm

[01:48:16] login they wouldn't be your kids

[01:48:22] login even if they share your genes

[01:48:41] login well, but their nurture won't be

[01:48:57] login i think they're allowed to find their biological parents

[01:49:53] login I wonder if ComputerTech would go on dates with anyone on an app

[01:49:58] login in exchange for some quick cash

[01:50:00] login no sex

[01:51:04] login what if you just said yes to everyone on bumble?

[01:51:11] login just to meet people or something

[01:51:29] login you could just tear the cash up

[01:51:45] login it's the same as paying tax and reducing the UK's deficit

[01:52:02] login get some real-world rizz

[01:52:51] login i wonder what's happening in there :P

[01:53:06] login i recommend a light meal

[01:53:18] login will be better for sleep

[01:53:42] login it means you're going to get robbed

[01:54:05] login ^ smart

[01:54:16] login it's a sus proposition, best to dodge

[01:54:31] login was there blood?

[01:54:39] login logout: trauma

[01:55:12] login \g: that's proof

[01:55:27] login proof of the assault

[01:56:15] login she started poking me, so i swung my sword too -- that kind of stuff?

[01:57:05] login jinx

[01:57:35] login why is anna in caps?

[01:59:33] login logout is littlesister

[02:00:40] login that was my fault

[02:00:51] login i asked him why he named himself littlesister

[02:00:59] login or sister

[02:01:41] login what kind of man would give himself a nick like 'littlesister'? i can't imagine who would do that

[02:02:24] login i sang it

[02:02:53] login from your heart

[02:18:47] login how'd you fix it?

[02:19:22] login i joined this channel through the tr_ visa

[02:19:33] login if you weren't, you'd be able to fix it

[02:20:09] login how do you fix a gear box?

[02:20:18] login you can only replace it right?

[02:24:30] login ComputerTech will know about the british equivalent, cricket

[02:24:48] login Batmanhush: businessman is packing in that photo

[02:25:02] login football then?

[02:25:22] login track and field

[02:25:30] login do you practice nowadays?

[02:25:38] login what about long jump?

[02:25:42] login it's like sprinting

[02:26:02] login you could do mixed-gender practice

[02:26:15] login for long jump

[02:32:58] login i will be too

[21:43:41] login how did you time it, foxy?

[21:43:49] login time in the air fryer

[22:10:38] login i mean, since it's not an oven, i didn't know how long one should time a chicken wing

[22:11:27] login yeah haha

[22:11:46] login 15 min + flip + 15+ min seems good

[22:59:25] login give up on the ducks

[22:59:29] login they're not real

[23:01:09] login i don't try to catch them anymore

[23:01:37] login he has never done that

[23:01:48] login he has only promised it

[23:03:36] login nothing to lose but time and opportunity

[23:04:15] login how's your med study going, irish666?

[23:05:08] login what about physical human contact?

[23:21:08] login foxy: he hasn't even got his bank account to work

[23:21:31] login yet he has made (potentially) international payments? sure, believe it

[23:22:27] login true

[23:22:46] login he could have paid with crypto

[23:24:51] login c/5 = (f-32)/9; f=60, c=?

[23:26:40] login lol

[23:27:52] login that could be a case study on how now to send the first message

[23:27:57] login *not

[23:29:36] login i concede, i only heard that he was yet to pay the previous winner

[23:29:56] login i fear for getting bad karma

[23:30:45] login did i say he didn't keep his promise?

[23:30:55] login or that he even promised?

[23:34:27] login yeah, it's not my business

[23:34:41] login yeah, i only know what i read here earlier

[23:37:59] login he's on his way to the bar, Kuro, per his own earlier message here

[23:41:57] login don't worry Kuro-chan, he'll be back soon once he's at the chippy

[23:42:07] login shouldn't be long now

[23:45:39] login that's harsh
