I suppose I meant that in the sense of being a cantillionaire, and less of a legitimate human being than Woz. But he was definitely better than Scully, if you know the story of the Apple 2 series. He absolutely was right about UI/UX stuff, still the best in the business.
Jobs was always the parasite. I dunno why anyone venerates him. He only gave a shit about his customers in so far as that they keep buying his garbage. The FBI didn't pay enough to get a golden key.
So, they have moved on from using greek letter names for the mRNA induced mutations to ancient greek deities, the latest one is named after the goddes Eris, whose golden apple supposedly started the War of Troy.
wut is pv?
The number of places worth living in any more is shrinking rapidly.
It's like a round of battle royale Fortnite these days. You gonna get whited out or make it to the middle of the ring?

I had a coffee on the beach in Nettuno back in 2015.
Best. Coffee. In. My. Life.
Still is. Never had anything since either that came close.
There just is no real reason for more than one global broadcast based blockchain money ledger. None.
I don't think Liquid is that interesting either, but RGB, well, it's at least an L3, breaking ground as the second major attempt to build an L3
I got that a for a few days after I was jumping around too much and hurt my knees. It's like that thing when you have a wound healing and when it's almost finished it starts getting itchy.
Except the itch is inside your knee lol.
And use a Badger dual log structured db. Not sure how Go is still the only language with a split log for keys, probably a Rust one by now. They can be locked into memory (or on MMAP file) for extremely fast searches, and it's practical to put one or two bits of data in it so you don't even have to touch the value store unless you need more than that.
Rust if you wanna look cool to the drones. Go if you want to make it work before a month of bashing your head against the borrow checker to start.
When it first launched the main way you received your feed was via SMS!!! imagine that!
It's like the pre-FB internet again. I'm only concerned as the drones and feds show up the apps don't have helpful tools for keeping such asshattery off my pixels.
idk why but that symbol in the middle reminds me of antifa's logo.
I want to add "The Apocalypse of Yajnavalkya" to your list, if it isn't already on it.
I've read many and varied books on spiritual subjects addressing the issue of death and it is the first one that for me, really made it clear this notion of a soul.
I'm of the opinion, that actually, a soul is something that you earn, when you start to wake up, and takes a long process of attunement to its ways, before you can step out of your body and into it, something the Kabalah calls "merkaba". Or was that the Book of Enoch?
No, it's because it's a simple declaration of something that hasn't been witnessed.
The real inception date is when non-associated parties see it for the first time.
Attacking ignorance that is justifiably based on skepticism based on ample evidence of bad character is not entirely unwise.
And there is plenty of alternatives to toothpaste. What matters more is the brushing. Oxidation also doesn't hurt, since it reduces bacteria levels.
I was told, even, by a medical trainer who was teaching me how to perform body piercing safely, also, that according to medical science, when cleaning yourself to reduce spread of bacteria and other muck, simple friction is the most important thing, followed by blood warm temperature which melts many fats and is not hot enough to make proteins denature and encapsulate bacteria against further efforts to dislodge them. That's also why dish washers mostly are based on using sodium carbonate at around 45 degrees C because at that temperature, fats are melted, and the proteins are more vulnerable to hydrolysis.
If it's got sodium monofluorophosphate, it's not so bad. Fluoride doesn't get bumped off by many things, iodine, chlorine, bromine, (elemental).
But just check the ingredients list on a lot of toothpastes sold as "enamel" boosting.
Sodium Fluoride.
As I said, Fluorine is very strong at bumping other things off (oxidation). The use of a NaF toothpaste, combined with excessive amounts of dietary citric acid, ie common energy drinks and snacks with the "peri peri" or whatever similar name flavor...
This resulted in a full week of toothache for me.
The toothpaste in question was Sensodyne, which is seemingly the only one that has Potassium Nitrate (saltpeter) in it, which deadens the exposed nerves underneath chipped and damaged teeth.
I immediately threw this garbage out and switched back to the plain Sensodyne, which has Sodium Monofluorophosphate.
Sodium Fluoride is almost as acidic as hydrochloric acid, all by itself, even with the sodium attached.
If you want to prove it for yourself, if you can get your hands on a little sodium fluoride, put some in water and then drop a piece of chalk (calcium carbonate) in it, and let it sit for a few days (sealed up) and come back to me about fluoride.
See, I never hardly read anything about this except for some text years ago that described how in a city where fluorapatite was processed (one of the minerals used in producing gypsum and superphosphate, via the use of sulphuric acid), and lo and behold, look what the second chemical named for use in chemical etching of glass is:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_etching
Should sodium fluoride be in toothpaste?
Definitely not, if you have chips like me, unless you like toothaches. The absurdity of putting this crap in toothpaste at the same time as potassium nitrate is outstanding.
Fluoride can create a quite hard, and brittle surface on teeth, that is indeed a little harder and more chemical resistant than normal tooth enamel, which is made of sodium triphosphate, which is also quite resistant to chemical attack. But sulphuric acid and sodium fluoride both attack this substance and plant fluoride atoms on it.
The bogus science around fluoride hinges up on some studies that found that around age 7-8, fluoride in water reduces the occurrence of cavities in the few years later.
Guess what? That's when you start to have your last molars erupt, the teeth that are the most liable to cavities in combination with a diet high in sugar.
Straight up collusion between chemical industry and sugar industry.
It's poison. A neurotoxin. It substitutes for chloride in the ubiquitous chloride channels that are everywhere in the nervous system. Sufficient fluoride contaminating these channels causes death. It's a neurotoxin in amounts not far above what people are absorbing from food and indirectly via fluoridated water in food processing and production.
I also didn't mention, that prior to the introduction of fluoride in toothpaste, the first chemical that was added to them for dental health was sodium iodide.
Sodium iodide does not push phosphate off the calcium of tooth enamel and bone. It kills the acid producing bacteria that feed off sugars that cause caries. Hydrogen peroxide also, but it's less stable. Probably sodium persulphate and similar oxidative salts might be ok but they are also unstable peroxides. The iodine, on the other hand, is at least 10x as chemically stable as the peroxides. Peroxides combined with carbonates are also good in the same role as sodium/potassium iodide.
The only place you can find iodised toothpaste nowadays is Infowars Store, which the last time I checked, was out of stock.
I just have some lugol's solution, and now and then I put a drop on my toothpaste to help sterilise my mouth better.
Killing the bacteria, and raising the pH of your saliva are the two number one actions for improving dental health.
