Fuck China
Fuck Lockdowns
And Fuck Joe Biden

You forgot the rusty pipes and all...

Other than that, the only thing you can do is accept what you can't change.

Are there any good thanksgiving movies you guys can recommend?

I don't celebrate TG, but try "die in a gunfight", which is one of the best movies i came across lately.

EDIT: also bought a little dip at $54.849 Wohooo!

Seems like a jackpot.

This virus is not just to be beaten by conventional vaccines. That's also why i am against vaxxing exclusively in regard to SARS-CoV-2.
Imho, even getting vaccinated against HPV makes much more sense to me than that.
First of all, there is this extreme bandwidth of outcomes, which must be dependent on certain parameters. Obesity, Diabetes, immune dysfunctions... to name a few.
I'd better research and combat those. Every human that wants the vaccination, feel free to do so, but be aware that your motivation is fear. Fear of never getting back your old life, fear of dying, fear of sickness, fear of the non-vaxxed because they may be right, fear of getting blamed by the pro-vaxxers.

Simple solutions to solve complex problems almost always fail. And yet, another sign of failing is not to change your decisions, although the expected results are not achieved.

Lately, i'm honestly asking myself if i should just sell most of my stash if Proudhon gets bullish someday.

For YEARS during bull markets we get to a point like this and we wonder.. whoa, is this it?  Did we top out?  Did I miss my chance to sell at the top (why are you selling at all? (not that there are not good reasons to! But if you probably weren't selling in the first place... then why the fear/regret?))

And most times with the conditions the way they are right now we would most CERTAINLY NOT be seeing the top already, but a pullback on the way up. 

...



Which one of these verses are we hearing read from the book of history THIS time?

From my point of view, i just see this giant falling wedge  Cool

The unjabbed that don't have proof of jab, aren't allowed in certain places.

And now human civilization has regressed at least 100 years.

Hooray!

Progress!!!

And see where in the world it's happening (again)...

As a side note I would just like to say that if I had a purely electrical heating system I would absolutely have a backup.

Even if you don't. Ours is gas/electric and when the power goes out, there's no electric to do the electricy things. Fortunately, we have a gas range so there's at least something available.

True and you can always run a furnace off a generator, trying to run straight electric methods off a generator is not viable.

I learned it the simple way in engineering school: You don't want to use linear motion dynamics (combustion cylinder) to create a circular movement to generate alternating current. This is the reason it's so inefficient.

Why don't you put in a air/water heat pump, my neighbor had a system like yours and when it broke down he put in a heat pump, he said it saved him a lot of money on the electricity bill.

Good idea, all in all. I use a water-heatpump myself for the home, but this is a different story, because i always have about 8-9°C water temperature down in 128 meters below the ground.
In contrast, these air-water pumps perform pretty well in environmental temperatures above -5° Celsius, but if you get below that, their efficiency is degrading.
Another problem: Infrasonic noise. Some people suffer from hum that is produced and resonating in walls and/or ceilings in the right distance (single or multiple wavelength of the hum frequency), i'd recommend some sort of anti-vibration mount, or placing the thing further away from the house, with a solid structure in between, down a hill for example.

My three cents.
Reminds me of a guy I used to work with back in the 80s.
I was working at a CD factory and it had some big fans and a big duct system in the attic, one morning we found the guy sleeping in the attic next to the fans, he claimed that the ultra sounds from the fans calmed him down and helped him sleep.
I don't know, but he was overusing amphetamine, tall and scrawny with that weird way of walking these guys get and a bit of a weirdo. I suspect he was just homeless for a period.


LOL  Cheesy

I dug quite into that topic of infrasound and it seems to be amplified by some independent factors. In the end it's sound, so wavelength (modes) and distance, as well as mounting seems to worsen the issue. There were studies about configurations like 4 houses, arranged in a square manner, and one was fitted with the air pump, while the house in front of it had the most suffering residents. They monitored the frequency, calculated the distances and it seemed that the wall surfaces of the houses in between, 45° to the sound source, projected at a multiple of the wavelength onto the outer wall of the house in front. So the dominant vibration frequency of the compressor produced a wave at an even multiple of the length (or at wavelength) between the two houses and the pump, and they reflected and added up. Of course, the two reflecting houses didn't show as severe infrasound problems, because their walls directed to the center of the square the houses were arranged at were at a certain point of the wave cycle, while the "victim" house's wall was hit with the mirror image of the wave amplitude as originating at the pump.

Better arrange houses following Helmholtz' Law of frequency modes then...

The vaccine helps, it's beter than without it.




Ah, we are arguing using nice, colorful pictures. Where have i seen that before?

On topic:
Yes, it helps (a bit), it's (a bit) better than without it.
But please, focus on the following pairs:

LV - RO

HR - SK

AT - SK

Note the differencies, especially the first two pairs, which are very similar in social/cultural aspects.
The vaccines are not the "end of the pandemic", as (my) government is pushing the narrative.

The death rate is not the only thing to look at.
Additionally, (imperfect) protection against spreading and infection is going to bongo figures  after three/six months and the vaccinated are considered "immune" (lol) for 9 or 12 months. The cream top is that "naturally immunized" are considered "immune" for six months, and these are protected stronger, longer and also have antibodies in the tissues of the upper respiration tract. Vaccines don't do this, and these are the tissues where SARS-CoV-2  is replicating fast (especially Delta) before it triggers tha later stages of immune reaction, which the vaccines are protecting against. Still, death and ICU rates among vaccinated are rising.
My government is trying to tell me: If everybody from age 5 to 99 gets forced to be jabbed, we're all free again. Until then, unvaxxed folks get locked down (allowed to go to work, of course). Tell me this is NOT stupid at all...

Interesting interview in the local news yesterday, where the "head of hospitals" of one province was asked how many vaccinated/unvaccinated patients are on hospitalization and on intensive care departments.
Answer (translated):

Quote
As of today we have about 60% vaxxed, 40% unvaxxed in hospital, while it's about 50/50 in ICU's currently.

Government via MSM:
Quote
90% unvaxxed in ICU beds, 80% unvaxxed in national hospitals.

WTF is wrong with this pack of liars?

Let the MSM declare Bitcoin as dead again and enjoy the pump shortly after.

China did it first   Tongue
This will get really sick. In a country with a similar name, they are currently discussing the wildest ideas to realize "vaccination duty" laws.
You get checked by any authority, you're not vaxxed? Get fined! From $4000 once to monthly payments of roughly $120 until you're vaxxed.
However, it will be hard to accomplish this in the face of constitutional rights, and if they do, i have my signed notes ready for the trials.
They thought it would be so easy to win against a mutating, hulled virus that went pandemic, with a jab.
This is the fucking Real Muppet Show!

I never get that: if you didn't sell at $69k, why would you sell when it is $56k?

Because you fomo bought at $68k?  Wink

It's called "The Terror"

This is why i am so glad that i have had my first four transactions going this way (2017):

1. bought at a weekly top
2. sold at a weekly low
3. bought back in above 1.
4. lost 0.1 BTC because of a trojan horse.

Then i bought a hardware wallet as i had already learned the three most important lessons in the first week of Bitcoin  Grin Cool

EDIT: Tell me $56k is the new $40k, please  Shocked

BillyNoCoiner, sign a message from a bitcoin address with a balance of even 0.1BTC or shut the hell up & get out of the WO, you pathetic peasant.

My bitcoin is in deep cold storage so I won’t be able to do this. I have nothing to prove to you though bitch.

Just proves enough for us…

You ain’t got any BTC, keep on being bitter….



Yeah, BillyNocoiner. Don't be bitter, be better  Grin
$60k up tonight, already?

EDIT: Oh, we already had $60.090, didn't check before posting, sry.

The guy in the video recommends using spike protein fragments in mRNA vaccines as alternative.

I've stopped arguing with "Schwurbler", I think that is what vaccination opponents are called in your country, but this Nazi comparison still gets my goat. Unpackbar.

Fine. I stopped arguing about topics with people that stopped arguing about topics. I still value your opinion and i also understand your point.

EDIT: You could have looked that up for yourself: Schwurbler  explanation (german). I also don't like it when people reduce anybody with a different opinion to a single word.
The current meaning of "Schwurbler" is a trending term for "Querdenker". I don't consider myself anywhere near those.
But it's always easy to fall for prejudice, which is exclusive to humans.

Please be careful to compare the torture and murder of millions of innocent people to our first world problems.

If people starting to compare ''dealing with a pandemic vs how to send millions of people to the extermination camps'', they are already per definition low intellectuals. These people suffer a mental disorder, my advice to them is to visit a psychiatrist but the scary part is these peple don't even realize how backwards they are.

Btw. These digital vaccine passports were planned way before covid and should have been implemented Europe wide by 2022. And then by coincidence we got a pandemic.

I have a vaccine passport for more than 30 years, now Covid will be added on the list and it goes digital because we live in a digital age. You create a storm in a glass of water.

You know they now have quarantine camps in Australia where they sent unvaccinated right? You think the camps in Germany were any different in the beginning? It was labeled "a temporary solution until the situation settles". Just give it few more years and see these camps popping up everywhere in the world. You clearly did not study the history of Germany and how all began. It began slowly and steady. Here is a quote from a survivor of the holocaust:



The people get radicalized right now by politicians and mass media against unvaccinated.

Exactly. Don't ever dare to compare the current situation to how things started in nazi germany, they will be "shocked" how you can even compare a genocide to a covid jab.
Either they are too dumb to get it or they don't want to.

Today, my government announced a lockdown starting on monday and a mandatory vaccination until end of Feb.2022. The same politics that said "there will be no more lockdown", "the pandemic is over" and "noone will be forced to get vaxxed" in summer. The best thing is: The parliament members are excluded from the law(s).
Fucking Fucks. Some people out there would like to see them hanging from the trees, and the same people will take part in a big demonstration tomorrow. The army is already ordered to support the police. This is surreal. The country whose citizens were waving to adolf back then is pulling this shit off now. Germany is on the way to follow, starting with talking about the "lockdown for unvaccinated", which didn't work in our country. Soooo intelligently! So this time it's different, right?

Refusing to get vaccinated will get fined or put in prison for up to four weeks.

Interesting times.

EDIT:

please stop comparing anti covid measures that are supposed to prevent the collapse of the health care system with nazi crap. this trivializes one of the worst crimes in our history and is just plain stupid.

The comparisons to Nazis will stop when they stop acting in ways that are comparable to the Nazis. Deal?

This is what i mean. The nazi comparison is totally valid, imo. The outcome is different, but the tactics are the same.
If nobody gets killed, then it's OK, yes? You're disappointing me, vroom. Intelligent people should see the similarities.
Nobody is threatened by unvaccinated folks that choose masks, distancing and hygiene over mass vaccination every 6 months forever, which only makes sense for about three months, according to science. This is, sadly, the only point that may be covered by constitutional rights. I hope the fucking government fails with this move.
50% of patients on ICU's are currently fully vaccinated. 80% of people on ICU's are heavily obese.
Does the government force people with an BMI higher than 28 to lose weight because of clogging intensive care?
No? Surprising. WHY NOT? The numbers are clear.
