different countries implemented different methods of dealing with covid.

the australasia quartersphere of the planet adopted the close the borders quarantine the border crossers and bring cases domestically down to near zero. then keep the borders locked and let life within start back like normal.

this was seen as best practice. it helped deal with the health side quickly and also reboot the economic side quickly.

but other countries in the northern hemisphere avoided the health warnings. they employed airlines to continue selling tickets to get people home. they kept businesses running and they didnt quarantine the border crossers.
then finally when it got to critical breaking point of health. they then kneejerk reacted at the final moment. but showing they didnt use those 2 months to plan anything.
thus wasting more tax more time and more lives lost.
the cases domestically in these countries were high and unable to be brought down to zero.
so they didnt bother. they just waited for cases to get to a certain level to allow business reboots for 3-6 months. knowing that after the reboot. business activity will need to crash again with next waves of lockdowns due to increased cases coming back again.

even a year on from the waning signs some countries are still allowing unmonitored border crossing.
and while there are new warning signs that border crossings are going to be the exact cause of a countries own brand vaccine may not be effective against future foreign varients. they are leaving it until the last minute to activate any new border crossing checks.
all because the economy is deemed a higher priority than human health.. and it saddens me that currency is deemed more important than lives

women do form relationships with men who are in financially bad situations
trailer park romances. carers falling in love with their home cared clients

woman can find emotional bonds without money being a concern. but the man has to have a great personality that makes the woman relaxed and comfortable being around.

yep the secret is to have a personality that makes the woman relaxed and happy.
it does not have to involve gifts or presenting yourself as privileged. its just a case of if you can make a woman laugh you are one step closer.

media try to portray that successful relationships are based on consumerism
for instance buying expensive jewellery. celebrating valentines at top restaurants
all of that in the real world is BS

if both people have to put on an act/presentation. then they are not going to feel comfortable/relaxed to share intimate insecurities with. thus not really life partner material.

if your spending 60 hours a week working, hoping the extra income can afford you luxuries. like jewellery that is valued at 30% of your salary. though it might impress her that day.. the other 364 days she is miserable because your never home.

its better to work only 40hours and spend that extra 4 hours a day forming strong daily relationships. rather than trying to 'buy' her happiness, via the loneliness to afford it.

..
best relationship experiences i have had are not evening suit/dress and posh restaurants.. but wearing sweats and eating pizza on a sofa. learning each others ticklish spots and what types of jokes each other like. mean more then value of jewellery

so forget luxuries. instead take the time to get to know the woman and what makes her relax around you to open up to them special insecurities and deep thoughts only found in relationships

elon bought $1.5bill btc at ~$30k/btc (guess:50,000btc)

if sold today thats $2.25bill
a nice 0.75bill profit for 2 months(50%)

..
that said people really need to understand bitcoins value vs bitcoins price are 2 separate things
                                                              (asset value)      (net worth)

i try to make it simple.
whatever the lowest price in the last 6 months is. in combination to how close it is to mining cost. is the true value line of bitcoin (the base value) as this is seen as the lowest price people are willing to sell for before they break even. and most will never sell at a loss. thus a strong indicator or best value

the current price or recent ATH is the speculative bubble price. .. not the base value

if you can work out the base value. and then compare that to the current price or recent high. you can work out how much "bubble" is occuring right now.

if the price and value are close then its a good buy. if the price is double+ the value. then its a bubble that can burst and correct back down

elon and other influencers can affect the speculative price(spot price) but its the fundamentals of bitcoin utility that help set the base value.

in short. never just look at a 'price' chart with one measure.
golds 'spot' price that people pay/get paid at a 'cash for gold' is not the same as the underlying gold value

(hint: bitcoin 3 month value=~$21k)

schools only teach the general knowledge stuff. the basics all should know
they do 'bait' at certain details that can forward people into more specialised education. but they dont provide enough education in these 'baited' details to actually help people prosper from the start

many times this is done on purpose. because why would you pay for college/university if you could learn it at the lower levels.

EG everyone should learn economics but secondary/high school dont teach basic principles of managing money.
they teach you how to spend it. but not have to be wise with your money.
schools teach you credit cards are normal things people should use, informing kids to 'build credit asap'
universities teach you the perils of debt

Hi, franky1. You have been playing out in the grass with the rest of the kids, right? But where in the world did you find grass at this time of year?

not in you basement.
but in the UK. grass lasts all year.

must be sad living in the arizona desert where all you get to experience is dust, maybe try to experience more of the world. heck you can even google places outside of your basement.

.
ever think that your lack of immune system is not the blame of government or medical. but your own lifestyle choices
i do hear your underlying cries of disliking lockdowns and your hints that lack of exposure can harm your immune system. so i do understand your fears that your basement lifestyle has harmed you in the past.

but you personally are being a hypocrite of medical systems .. then advertising treatments that purposefully suppress immune responses.
this is just idiotic game to play. that helps no one

some days i think you do it to try finding like minded people. or to create like minded people. hoping if everyone is put into the weakened immune response then you will finally find your happiness.
(badecker personally performs genocide to finally be right that genocide will occur in the future)
some days i think you do this because you are just a script repeater, not understanding the games your influencer cult leaders play
some days i think that your a serial killer wanting eugenics and wanting people to suffer, but then want to distract people by saying its a plan of someone else.
but what is clear everyday. is your posts are not designed to help people with their health or their knowledge about whats really going on in the world

your the kind of nutter that will spend 5 years trying to tell other arizonians all illnesses are fake and that batman is a phoenix resident that stabs his neighbours.  then you will go and rent a phoenix house, rent a batman costume and buy a knife. just to make yourself look like you were right.
.. but still reality shows illnesses are real. and your just a nutter

to explain some of the trump defence disorganised rebuttles, ill use some analogies even 5yo can understand

if you have the flu you can have a cough, a fever, and a runny nose
this does not mean you have to have a cough to qualify to then be at risk of having a runny nose or fever
these things can happen independently of a cough

so that debunks the (,and) defence that has been said as the reason to not go through with the impeachment if he is already not in office
EG
cough, fever, and runny nose
removed, lose privilege, and not have future access

also the ambiguities of "president"
constitution says president, vice president and civil officer
it does not says 'current elected president only.

and by the way trump still holds office. he is still a civil officer. getting certain civil privilege
"office of former president"

nothing that can be done

lessons to learn:
if you meet someone but dont know their real name, dont hand them cash with just a handshake promise
if you contact someone but dont know name, face,location and cant even shake hand or slap face, dont hand them money
..
if you dont know enough about them to slap them with a wet fish(metaphor: file lawsuit) if the harm you. dont deal with them.

would you hand a stranger on the street a briefcase of cash? no. then dont do the same online.
9168  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Trump Impeachment Public Hearings [serious discussion] on: February 10, 2021, 04:18:23 AM
the impeachment is about stripping a president(current or former) of all honour and privilege and to remove them from ever having a chance of office again. .. and then normal criminal law can apply to them
There is no part of the constitution that allows for the Senate to impeach a former President. The constitution allows for the Senate to remove a President from office, however, Trump cannot be removed from office because he does not currently hold the office of the President.
, and strip him from honours and privilege
, and prevent from future office
, and then liable to future court actions for criminal charges
Quote
, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States
Any officer is convicted on impeachment is immediately removed from office, and may be barred from holding any public office in the future. No other punishments may be inflicted pursuant to the impeachment proceeding, but the convicted party remains liable to trial and punishment in the courts for civil and criminal charges.
9169  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Trump Impeachment Public Hearings [serious discussion] on: February 10, 2021, 03:59:28 AM
Cassidy was a pretty big surprise, he gave an interview afterwards saying that the legal defenses 'disorganized and random' argument it what swayed him to vote yes.
Many of the lawyers who represented Trump in his last impeachment trial have declined to do so this time around because it is of their opinion that this trial is nothing more than political theater.

My best guess is Trump will not get convicted, but if he does, I would say that any conviction will be thrown out by the SC.

The next big question will be if they decide to call witnesses or not.
I am not sure how this is even a decision. The House called no witnesses and held no hearings. I am not sure how anyone would consider voting to convict without any evidence.

bush, obama, lincoln and all other 'presidents' still get honours and privileges after their contract. meaning its harder to actually just treat them like normal citizens after. hence the lack of arrest and no 'conviction'

the impeachment is about stripping a president(current or former) of all honour and privilege and to remove them from ever having a chance of office again. .. and then normal criminal law can apply to them

this impeachment is stage 1 of striping trumps title.
later and separately he could be arrested, charged and convicted for crimes.

impeachment is not a process of criminal conviction. its a civil process of terminating any civil protections/privileges/titles/access to office

the whole criminal action is separate and after impeachment.
9170  Other / Politics & Society / flipflops and facepalms noted in trump impeachment on: February 09, 2021, 10:23:15 PM
so lets list all the mixed messages, hyocracies and general nonsense said in trumps impeachment
ill start with one


david Schoen (trumps defence lawyer)
"the constitution says only the currently sitting president can be impeached, and the only punishment is to leave the office of president."
(facepalm)
nope the constitution says president, vice president and civil officer.
also the punishment is leave office, and not sit any future office

it does not say 'past/present/future'
trump still hold title of 'president' trump(in title,, not function)
like people still say 'president lincoln' over 100 years after


so. with trump titling himself as still the current president(double nailing his own coffin)
with trump still having office honours, privilege and access to special government provision like:
national security intelligence meetings
secret service protection
..
it must also be highlighted that if it were so easy to avoid impeachment by just resigning. then anyone getting impeached would resign, thus making impeachment moot.
9171  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Coronavirus Outbreak on: February 09, 2021, 09:04:13 PM
i now see the problem

badecker is not angry about if facts are true or false
badecker is angry that his opinion is not awarding him any funds

..
badecker i get all my funding from my own trading of bitcoins since 2012. i dont need other funding. no one needs or has or should pay anyone for their words.
i understand you are highly indoctrinated into cults that pay speakers to speak scripts the cult want. i understand you are hoping to become one of these 'pay for speech' influencers.

but your crap, your flip flops. your lack of even basic understanding or even basic common sense means you lack even the most basic requirement of becoming an influencer.

so dont waste your time on your lies. instead try to spend your time on something that actually means something.

your denials of covid. and your repeated script are not winning you any favours.

there are actual issues harming people. like covid. so actually be honest. acknowledge covid. learn about covid and then find the real suffering and problems

EG less deaths could have happened if the repatriation flights didnt happen
less deaths could have happened if they actually paid the repatriates to stay in the foreign country and extend their time away.
les deaths could have happened if trump 1-4 years ago actually planned for worse case scenario's like making sure healthcare was well supplied and funded from the start.

heck same goes for UK's boris. he could have done better too. he could have acted sooner in the same ways and prevented as many deaths.

so instead of hiding from reality and finding faults in the lies you create. how about realise the reality of whats happening in the world and find the real faults

bitcoin moses doesnt have anything.

if you actually google it it shows a medium post of alot of crap stuff

like
'he started bitcoin core in 2007'
he mined nearly 1mill coins and moved it all to coinbase
he put the coins into a tulip trust

funny thing is all 3 points have no foundation
there was no bitcoin in 2007.. there was not even a bitcoin core in 2007-2013
the main coins of 2009(when bitcoin did start) have not moved, even as of today (2021)
coinbase was not even around in 2009-2011
and the tulip trust is just a piece of paper of public keys made by CSW to scam his investors and friends
anyone can make a list of those keys. they are valueless(publickeys does not prove anything)
..
so that ends bitcoinmoses latest episode of fantasy drama
we will see bitcoin moses try again in 6 months with a new 'dr' that has found satoshi.
maybe bitcoinmoses might circle back to some old names that supposedly found satoshi. like Dr sol adoni

9175  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is a math model worth that predicts BTC's next ATH with incredible accuracy on: February 08, 2021, 05:55:01 PM
each years ATH is based on pure random speculation.
there are no puzzles/equations to solve an ATH.

you cannot predict an ATH

you can however predict a fair YL(year low) based on:
how much it costs to mine that year
how much it cost to mine in previous year
how much % of circulating coins moved in that year.

then you can base how much of that circulation had been 'bought'/mined for and thus know what number the majority would refuse to sell below.

however you cant play the same equation to work out a high.

anyway to address badeckers bad quotes about the worthyness of PCR and diagnoses

having a PCR result of say ct29. in of itself does show you have the virus. but alone doesnt describe to which stage of the infection you are at.
you could be at the peak of a mild/asymptomatic 48 hour infection
35\    /
32 \  /
29  \/
26
23
20
    1 2 3
       *

pre-symptomatic of a more mild/severe infection that WILL(future tense) last more then a week
post-symptomatic of a mild/severe infection that lasted more then a week
35\                     /

          *            *
the number alone proves you have covid and was cause of the symptoms.. but the number alone wont tell you just by the number how bad it might get.

the number combined with other details like asking the patient when their symptoms started and when they may have come into contact with someone that was sick,, other health risks they may have. can build up a better idea if the person is likely to get it bad or is already over the worse of it
along with things like xrays, and other diagnostics like antibody counts

We need god.  We don't need your interpretation of your fairy tales.

the books of 'god' should not be interpreted as needing god. because no one has seen him in 2000 years, so you will be waiting a long time to get your needs met.

you should interpret it as heres some lessons to learn about what YOU should do to be a decent person and not harm others.. not a lesson of harm others and blame some entity no one has seen in 2000 years
9178  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Memorandum on Advancing the Human Rights of LGBTQI+ Persons Around the World on: February 08, 2021, 03:33:35 AM
It really doesn't matter if you're actually gay or trans, only that you're being persecuted.  (It's possible to be persecuted for something that you aren't)

All this does is add LGBT+ to the list. (race, religion, nationality, membership in a social group or political opinion)

claiming refugee status is not usually as easy as just saying 'im muslim, im being persecuted'.. otherwise there would not need any 'smugglers' to get people into another country illegally

im just saying this memo reads as if its trying to be too relaxed on a particular group, where by the bar of evidence to prove persecution is set to 0. where even questioning them becomes a no-no

take the previous policy of lowering the bar of entry based on age. EG kids get in with no question. but adults dont. .. that policy split families up. and made lots of money for the foster care and child detention centres whereby kids wait in child detention centres for a few weeks until fostered. but their parents are held for years in another country. causing an unfair imbalance.. it also let guys thats were like 21 pretend they were 16-17 just to get in quick

the policy before that was letting families in but not single adults.. so child kidnappings went up. so that single adults can claim they are the guardians/relative of a child just to get in quicker.

so those escaping violence for religion. will just flip the script and now say 'im gay' to get swift action rather than waiting the normal refugee status times that religious/political persecution refugees wait.
much like how 19-21yo adults running from syria flipped the script and said they were 16

do you get the loop hole.

id have no issues of 'we are adding sexuality to the persecution list, and then adding extra funding and resources to expedite all refugee applications'..but thats not what the memo says
thus we are going to see the 'syrian children crises' loophole play out. but using sexuality this time
9179  Other / Serious discussion / Re: How religion became a thing for the poor on: February 07, 2021, 06:28:20 PM
its very simple
the rich get rich by acting for themselves to get money from other people who need things provided for them.

but religion pushes a mantra that people should be patient and wait to be provided things by some entity they cant touch. and to trust that someday if you are patient and a 'giving' person. you will get things back in return


in short. if you give away your money. maybe just maybe you might get something worthy in return. so give away things an wait and hope

religion is the complete opposite of capitalism
9180  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Memorandum on Advancing the Human Rights of LGBTQI+ Persons Around the World on: February 07, 2021, 05:19:25 PM
i see this as two sided.

a. it says (sec 2) it wants to protect the LGBTQI people being persecuted by actually recognising the persecution as an actual reason of needing refuge in the adopting country..
..
however it doesnt take much for a straight male to (falsely) declare a new sexuality to win refuge status.

b. and if there was to be so much protection against discrimination of sexuality. the refugee application office wont be able to ask/question much about a applicants sexuality as trying to test if someone is truly being persecuted in their home country. then becomes discrimination by questioning it.

i just see this as being a loop hole of every straight immigrant declaring 'gay' to auto win refugee status

soon people wont need to marry a native to win a green card. they just play gay for a day.and governments cant question it
