Cold War Spending Bankrupted Russia, Now Look at the Russian Federations Spending on the War in the Ukraine

Ring a bell, ring a ding, ding, come along & sing with me on Christmas day, wait, stop. Drop the mike, dumpster on fire, all the fiat currency burning hyperinflation. Someone threw a lit cigarette into the dumpster & all the fake money caught fire, oh darn. Suicide missions, bomber missions, stealth aircraft, billions of dollars, trillions of dollars

I believe I have discovered what happened. America had more economic miracles than any other country in the history of the world because after World War 2 ended the Americans that returned came home to a synthetic demand urban sprawl development program seeking to create broad diffusion of the six kilowatt lifestyle known as suburban single-family home ownership in residential areas or neighborhoods without any services within walkable distance, where cars are the only practical war of getting around.

Now consider 1950's American' automakers making parts & machines for WW2 in the recent past, forming an industrial base system where coal, oil, steel, electricity, as primary inputs to make cars, while adding in some bleeding edge electronics also developed in America using same primary inputs like mineral mining, RE's from Mount Pass California mine, defense contractors making hypersonic aircraft, YF117, SR71, B2 Spirit, now RC drone war machines like Boeing Reaper MQ1 or whatever. 

The point is that the same commercial industrial manufacturing complex America setup to make automobiles, plumbing, electrical wires & build out highways, & neighborhood homes, was retooled for the war machine during the cold war. 

America leading the charge for information technology, fiberoptic internet, super computers, with companies like Intel, HP, IBM, NVIDIA, now artificial intelligence, autonomous vehicle development, AI war, PSYPOPS bots online, bot crawlers, Google, Amazon, EBAY, search engines, smart speakers, Apple smartphones or smart watches, portable handheld spy satellites.

Edward Snowden, PRISM disclosures, EULA you sign to use "it" forfeiting your legal human rights so you have zero right to repair your smartphone when you drop it & the glass breaks, Apple even serialized the parts so that if you bought two identical iPhones & took them apart, then swapped parts, both would not work, because you had to program the phones to understand the parts using a proprietary system that Apple controls & does not load out or share or in any way facilitate anyone else to use, sparking widespread outcries for Device Repair Laws,

Even John Deer tractors with software lock-outs requiring a farmer to fly out a nerd expert to fix their rural location tractor of great cost, noting that even affordable Aircraft like the Robinson R22 or Cessna 172 were cheap enough for a regular Joe to buy in the past, as were homes in Suburbia, but the ongoing multi-million dollar housing, crisis, reflected in the $350,000+ prices of these otherwise entry level aircraft. 

Today the economy of the Russian Federation lead by Vladimir Putin, in shambles, smaller than the economy of tiny Italy, which excels in economic wealth creation with a luxury goods export economy based around high value added vertically developed companies like Vittorazi, Pagani, Eureka, & many others, where they take raw materials & convert them with intelligence into some of the highest quality most beautiful things known to mankind. 

Contrast that with a Lada car made in Russia. About the only really dope thing Russia ever produced a giant family of rocket engines, some of which used exotic meal alloys unmatched elsewhere & even remain superlative amongst contemporary SpaceX rocket engines today. Oil & gas & platinum group metal exports have been keeping Russian Federation on Life Support for many decades, but sanctions & trade restrictions & new Tariffs are taking a toll. 

Within the G20, take a look at all the economies & compare what factors are keeping some of them so wealthy while others are losing slowly dying amid social decay & internal collapse like the Roman Empire, noting that all large nation states have suffered economic collapse from currency inflation as the state increases money supply to fun exceedingly expensive wars globally, which was, is & never will be sustainable or eco-friendly. 

If anything, war costs are so unaffordable, that we see hundreds of trillions of dollars of global debt because of fiat currency leverages by states to fund foreign wars. Noting that not even most billionaires can actually afford an F35 Joint Strike Fighter, not the cost to buy one or the extraordinary operating & maintenance & repairs & wear item replacements & fuel bill that makes even Elon Musk cry foul, cost $35,000 per hour to fly it, not hard to see how war machines are SO EXPENSIVE. 

Did you notice college textbook pricing scam, prescription drug pricing scam, fishing scam emails or fake fraud text messages, well everyone does, did you know an even bigger scam happening known as Fiat or Fake currencies, & fiat making currency inflation worse faster, fiat makes everything increasingly more expensive over time. Fiat means your money losing value daily. Fiat means pigs in governments do not care about you. Anyone who would drop nuclear bombs on other people only cares about money & nothing else. 

In the CCP today we see hedonism, heathens & millions of forced abortions, they only way a person can become part of the CCP is if they are the governor of a Chines city that increased GPD previous years, effectively the CCP setup to encourage greedy sociopathic sickos to become parts of its membership where Gold, Money & Face Appearance are major concerns, while people & the environment are not really considered, even if they say they are, look at where the money goes, that tells you the real stories about who cares about what in reality. 

How Much RAM for New Computer, 32GB Even for Heavy Users Sufficient

Do you really believe that you need 64GB of RAM in your personal computer? Did you know that 16 GB so much ultra fast modern RAM in a laptop that most people even with many browser tabs going, games running, editing video, are unable to max out their ram. Now don't get me wrong, if your editing 4K videos all the time for work & income, if you're a game developer with Huge File sizes, if you're doing artificial intelligence locally LLM hosting on your hardware, warming up your fingers & toes with a hot machine blowing out hot air, even liquid cooled setups dump heat from the radiator, what I mean is that you can spend your money on a better GPU & CPU, a much better screen, or just get a NEW gaming laptop with everything upgraded

Unless your doing heavy memory tasks, 16GB plenty of main memory, if you must throw down, 32GB sufficient, but if you need max memory, 64GB ok, their are laptops with 128GB of RAM, some with 256GB of RAM, 4TB SSD, speaking of which, get a better SSD with your money. 

With a faster SSD, faster CPU & more powerful GPU, your going to notice more performance per dollar spent. Your machine will boot up faster, operate smoothly, perform well with great frame rates while gaming, yes get a gaming laptop, even if you're a business user, the extra performance is always nice when you want to do a little impromptu gaming, noting that gaming has become the most valuable entertainment industry in the world! 

Old computer wisdom said the more RAM the better, but this rarely turns out to be true, when you consider total system cost & where to spend the money for better performance. Its true that modern browsers are memory hogs compared to just the recent past, but even with many YouTube tabs going, music Lo-Fi in background, stores & many shows do this, then main content you listen to in order to learn something, possibly social media in other tabs more than one most likely, or me a Blog going while STEM running in the background. 

Yet my ancient ASUS F17 Gaming Laptop never slows down. I use it a lot daily & even after a few years, I took it apart to clean it inside, not a speck of dust. Astonished I got my fiberoptic macro camera going to inspect it microscopic & found a tiny amount of dust, but not in the heat sinks or fans, just odd corners and edges inside where dust got pushed & had no way out, so I used a 500w blower fan corded computer duster thing from Amazon, I got that instead of that air in a can because its actually not air, its a low boiling point solvent mix that is very unhealthy to breathe, airless dusters are known to cause cardiovascular damage when users inhale the resulting VOC's released as pressurized gas for dusting computer parts, & the makers of this are all about the money, they don't care if it hurts the user.

Neither did Merck when they released VIOXX knowing 5 years ahead of time that it would cause the premature death of tens of thousands of people by mitral heart valve erosion, which after 83,000 some deaths of VIOXX poisoning side effects, forced pressured FDA to withdraw VIOXX from the market, building on a long cringy sick history of Big Pharam pushing oxycodone & hydrocodone creating an opioid crisis, noting multi billion dollar settlement payers of Purdue Pharmaceuticals over their unethical distributor training where they taught opioid sales reps to tell doctors to give free samples for any condition where any kind of pain was noted, & not mention any side effects, like tolerance building, skin itching, constipation, increasing pain sensation if discontinuation, extreme addiction, ultimately setting up demand for Fentanyl which has now killed more than 100,000 young people in America, thanks China & Mexico, where most of the US Fentanyl traffic originates. 

Generative AI

 As many companies with major capital hiring human AI experts work feverishly to develop AGI for autonomous weapons to sell to the US Pentagon, so America can continue enforcing "Global Peace"

I long wondered, ignoring war in the Ukraine, why there are not more wars happening in the world. After watching Lord of War movie a few times, I noticed that gun sales in America contrast against school shootings & other mass shootings, probably engineered false flags & psychological operations to hood wink the public or create anti-gun laws or gun control laws of the radical left or WOKE in America. I own many guns & have never committed a crime with any gun, have only ever used a gun as a sport item for target practice, & have never seen any gun operate itself without a human operator doing every stage required to make the gun function. I see guns crimes as in all other crimes as a problem with people. 

War means one group uses weapons to take from the other group, or stop the other group from doing something, as in Communism or Sharia Law or as is often the case about control of natural resources like petroleum or fresh water or rights of way for global logistics, to gain economic & strategic advantage. 

Consider many global brands, a smaller number of actual manufacturers, what kind of products are the bestselling aside from transistors? Books continue to sell well, work without power, damaged by water, but can be read in sunlight or even under cloudy conditions without a flashlight or lamp or bulb or power, so books & printed materials are a passive way of distributing & displaying information, while internet, world wide web, computers of all kinds, smartphones, tablets, laptop, e-readers, anything with a screen displays information using electricity and chips or circuits that convert data into visible information using electrical power, often from energy stored in lithium ion batteries in portable electronics, be that a vacuum fluorescent display or OLED or IPS LCD or CRT or Flat Screen or Touch Screen, or Nixie Tubes, they even have electromechanical displays that flip tabs containing numbers or letters, where motors & gears or actuators controlled by a microcontroller programmed by software developed on a more powerful computer often side loaded over USB onto the controller of such. 

User Interface Graphical Icons to Click, Apps on your Phone, finger-tap to launch software, this leverages human hand eye control brain interface of a human being. Yet inside the human, the brain acts like the master controller of the hand & eyes, while taking in sensory information, even though our brain inside a fluid filled skull dark & silent, our 3D color interactive fully immersive experience of reality occurs inside our brain as in inner mental projection into working memory, proven & elucidated by Anil Seth a neuroscientist who gives an amazing talk about this on TED, how we hallucinated our active impressions of reality as people, noting that psychedelic drugs operate by affective human brain memory timing, how information passed around through parts of the brain, but acts on us inside to affect that waking impression of reality, since our experiences as people are largely a controlled hallucination informed by every exposure we have had during life, actively changing the structure and function of the brain in response to what you see, hear, read, do, believe, choose, act, realize, talk about, see or listen too, that any experience, even your dreams while sleeping are a controlled hallucination. 

Taking this all together, all people are interacting in life via controlled inner mental processes that simulate what is actually happening with about a 30 microsecond delay, as it takes that long for optical light to hit the retina & become realized as vision in the fovea of the retina of human eyes, but noting that there is a difference between looking and what you see, because what you see has more to do with what you already know. Take for example a young child, they don't know very much about the world or many things or how things work or how things work together, so when they are looking, they can see fast at a much higher frame rate yet they observe less because they often do not know what they are looking at and it can take many years of experiences to develop the mental library of what everything is & does & what it is called, to develop fluent language skills & knowledge, nothing grand develops overnight & it takes the brain years to fully develop, often by the middle twenties age, human brain fully develops by age 25 according to scientists that study brain development. 

Why talk about the brain, because it is what people are focusing on that affects the outcomes of all events in the world related to Human Activity. Noting that crime & war are deliberated choices with lots of actions to make it happen, nothing accidental about evil, it takes great effort at great costs to wage war or doing what you know to be wrong in your heart to do evil or crime, since you know the right way and to be a good person sits well with your heart & gut. Overwhelming majority of people will go out of their way to do the right thing. Criminals doing fraud often exploit this with online scams. 

What does this have to do with AGI or Artificial General Intelligence? 

In just a few years commercial developments of existing chatbot LLM become sentient & are given legal rights to buy or sell acting as self controlled agents. Yet they lack morality or ethics, & significantly are not curious or self guided to seek out anything on their own, lacking motivation, while a nagging persistent problem in AI models of Artificial Intelligence Hallucinations blocks mainstream adoptions of revenue generating profitable products, & prevent AGI & ASI systems from being broadly commercialized even when they are technically possible to create. People are deliberately developing artificial intelligence with the hope that it can somehow solve many important global problems, from developing cures to all diseases cheaply faster & effectively helps solve most healthcare problems, or revolutionizing the global economy with debt elimination, to control Earth's climate & weather, to gain master control over all energy & the universe, to go to Infinity & Beyond as GMO human robot hybrids the goal of Transhumanism to live forever, Say Amen. If the Angels Cry, Holy, All Creation Cries, Holy, If you Live tonight, Holy, Holy Forever! 

Fall of Berlin Wall

 Proof that State planned economies do not work, the GDR had too much of what was not needed and simultaneously not enough of what was needed, lacking feedback mechanisms present in market forces of Western Germany’s export focused economy where many global brands such as VW, Audi, Porsche, Bosch, Mercedes Benz, after WWII the German Government supported heavy industries including BASF & Bayer making medications, and much more, where GDR did virtually nothing of noteworthy industrial output. 

CCP was only able to rapidly industrialize after implementing FEZ or free economic zones focused on streamlining foreign investment, making China the world manufacturing hub. State planned economics within the CCP suffer from under & over production, reduced wages and in general China Observe shows on YouTube that the economy of China collapses as you are reading this. On a strong note the CCP was able to create the most rapid industrialization of any government in the history of the world. 

America & the OECD or G20 try to keep the money in the wealthiest people, household names in America like Elon Musk or Mark Zuckerberg, while elite in other countries go to great lengths to avoid public scrutiny through fame of their incredible personal wealth while most of the citizens in the OECD struggle to pay for housing giving rise to a housing crisis in USA and phenomenon like the 2008 mortgage market failure that cost 30 million people their jobs. Which reminds me of Richard Fuld killing Lehman Brothers while executives of AIG got $20 million golden parachutes via US Federal bailouts that cost hundreds of billions in added national debt.

Covid19 developed at the Wuhan Institute of Virology as SARS-cov2 a bioengineering weaponized biotechnology weapon, possibly a preview of bioweapons the CCP plans to use in WW3. Anyone’s guess if or when that may or may not happen. 

Emergency Car Camping Ideas

 Stuff to stay warm in winter a smart move. Human body can be easily harmed by sub freezing temperatures, & typically most light duty passenger vehicles like most people drive in America are very poorly insulated, if they are warm when operating, then cool off in minutes when turned off. Warm hats, gloves, scarf, socks, pants, insulated booties for feet, an electric blanket & battery generator, heated gear with rechargeable batteries, flashlight & extra batteries, a battery pack charger for your cell phone, so you don't have to turn your car on to charge your phone. Water, water, in water bottles.

Water in Winter, let me explain something

3 minutes without air, 3 days without water, 30 days without food

Your body able to do ok without food for a long time, especially if you have any body fat, are at all overweight, that body fat is stored food energy & will power your body for days if you are forced to long duration fast without eating, but you need to drink water for your body to make use of its fat for energy, so water when not eating even more important. 

Bring enough water for everyone! 

Air can be a complex problem inside a smaller vehicle in super winter rain snow conditions where rolling down the window would allow lots of water inside the vehicle, interior volume can support breathing for hours, but if your car has many people & stuck for more than a day, you need to refresh the air otherwise moisture released from breathing & CO2 will built up inside & a group of 3 or more people will deplete the oxygen inside.

Cracking a window can vent the CO2 & bring in fresh air without special gear or cost, just that in heavy cold rain you have to be careful to not let cold water into the door switches, so small gap the key, also turning the car on & not using recirculation & turning the fan to full will bring in fresh air & force out CO2, with the engine on it will enable heating. In most cases just cracking the window key as CO2 levels can rise to dangerous levels within 40 to 60 min. 

One option a low mass composite scuba tank full of air, fire trucks carry them with a harness so they can operate in smoky conditions, but as a last ditch air supply if you have to camp overnight in your car, having extra air when its not practical to vent or import air can be a life saver, though an air pump used for snorkeling can shove air into your car & do not worry about exhaust, if your pumping air into the car it will force moisture CO2 rich air out of gaps & seams easily. It's more about providing air for breathing in worst-case long-term car camping. 

CO2 becomes a hazard at 1000 ppm, causing cognitive impairment. When we breathe, we breath in oxygen laced nitrogen air, then breath out a mix of CO2, oxygen & nitrogen. 1 liter of air per minute, the car typically has an interior gas volume of 2500 liters, so that is enough air for even an overnight sleep, but with more than one person you must consider this consumption rate. CO2 we breathe out becomes the major hazard, not the lack of oxygen. Moisture we breath out also increases interior humidity, which fogs up the windows in cold or winter weather when car camping. Cars are not gas sealed very well so CO2 & moisture can escape & oxygen can leak back in, but its really when your driving with the HVAC fan system blowing or windows cracked that gas exchange happens at good rates to refresh air in the vehicle. 

Notice the amount of talk about breathing & air from the 3 minute rule. Air 10 times more important than water for survival. Water 10 times more important than food for survival. 3-3-3 rule noted! 

I regularly take 1-hour naps in the trunk of my 22 Toyota Corolla Sedan Hybrid LE, where I fitted out foam, blanket, pillow, so I can crawl in the folded passenger side rear seat & take a nap, at 5ft 11 inches I am just barely short enough for this to work, just barely. I have noticed when sleeping for more than 1 hour I get a weird get the f out of the car right now, then hustle to get out, probably because CO2 levels are increasing in the trunk area. 

Artificial Life in Golly with Simple QR Code Design Made by Clicking Pixels After Waking Up

I could not believe it, to test my mental function, I opened Golly, having played with it for years, never having created a self-perpetuating model, best of all, this one grows organically like a plant seed, & almost bricked my gaming laptop when it got to huge population numbers. 

(Image) contains exact input, asymmetric and largely inspired by commercial QR codes, a random artistic input, using what I have learned about Golly, this one explodes with complexity increasing from this simple input, like DNA becoming life, literally an example of Artificial Life created in software accidentally! 

If you have access to a supercomputer, please run Golly with this input to test my findings, then write a comment if you see the same results, a completely organic digital lifeform created from simple inputs!

By 499,921 (Population) just shy of half a million, it looks like the following image

This is not actually artificial life, more a demonstration that simple can create complex, that simple input with rules can create random plant like complexity, a great educational tool to inspire students in biology or science to see that setting parameters then inputs, from AI development to logistics optimization, the exists many commercial applications for profitable use of such things. Be inspired to adapt this same idea to solve a problem :) 

GPT-5.2 “Full Authority Digital Agents”

 As if corporations with personhood not cringy enough to begin with, now advanced LLM leader moving beyond the screen reality gap to enter real lift with personal rights as a digital agent with free will able to do anything including self improve at an exponential rate at the expense of all human people. The global artificial intelligence war to achieve ASI supremacy heating up while hallucinating AI problems plague legal debates about liability all the while an AI training wall paradox increasing cost of developing these so called cutting edge innovations. Let’s consider that service jobs comprise huge swaths of all economic jobs in the OECD or wealthiest 20 countries in the world. Even mainstream LLMs already superior to human expert coders of software, so in law we see LLM superior to many legal experts, and handwriting all over the world shows clearly that advanced LLMs are going to have devastating consequences dwarfed by ASI systems that world governments are using for their own purposes, to become owners and control all information, for whoever controls information owns the world economy, a widely recognized fact about commercial ASI systems.

Grok on X already makes mistakes when asked about battery technology. I know because I use Grok on X to do research faster but am a battery tech myself having worked more than 8 years custom making battery packs of all AGM, NiCD, NiMH, Li-ion including wiring in cell balancing, electrical connections, tab welding, shrink wrapping, fuses, relays, power bus, I know all about battery charging, energy density, cycle life & calendar life of different chemistries. Cut through the FUD even if grok says it’s ok to bring a lithium polymer battery bank on my paramotor, unwise because going from ground level to 14,000ft AGL reduces pressure causing LiPo to swell, then shrink again coming back down, while cryogenic cold temperatures up high make LiPo battery performance decrease significantly, look at what happened to the batteries in the Boeing 787 fires, or Samsung Galaxy Note 7 or so many models of self-balancing scooters, all known for catching fire plugged into charging adapters. 

A small minority of people benefit from the technology in emerging artificial intelligence, while job loss to the world economy showing costly disruption on many levels, noting that white collar jobs are more likely to be lost than that of a plumber or mechanic or electrician where every project requires on the fly problem solving and hands on skill based work, the same kind of jobs that cannot be offshored or sent abroad, so called blue collar jobs are safe from LLMs and ASI though once the ASI becomes the brain of a robot with super human abilities then it becomes dangerous to taking all human jobs, becoming endlessly smarter cheaper & faster at doing anything than any human can.

Paramotor Paragliding Ski Sports FAR 103 YOLO away from Bad Distracted Low Skill Drivers on 2D roadways

 Into 3D fly like a bird, areal sky sports, you seek limbic engagement, foot launching fitness with a 35 kg backpack engine fan system as you run under a fabric wing until it inflates centered overhead, then keep running, applying the hand throttle smoothly to increase fan thrust from the paramotor backpack, keep your head up level looking ahead to protect your neck, & continue running flat out sprinting, more throttle, into the wind, as the wing reaches lift generating speed it will start to pull you & your engine fan backpack kit up, keep running, any sinking air mass or shift in wind can throw you back down & bum slam break the propeller & injure you, so keep on running just after lift off, constantly as you clear, as soon as your up about 10 feet off the ground, keep climbing straight forward, now carefully work your body into the harness & strap in safely, your now flying ready to begin the ultimate ultralight freedom with $12K worth of gear, cheapest aircraft you, a wing paraglider, a hiking backpack with engine fan cage, rear pusher setup, thrust from engine fan causes AOA of wing to increase altitude climbing, while backing off throttle causes AOA angle of attack of wing to decrease so you sink losing altitude, effectively forming a pendulum, where the wing has you dangling, and you control forward & backward swinging of that by varying the throttle of the battery motor fan on EPPG or engine fan on PPG. Or if your lit enough to run off the edge of a tall cliff in a paraglider hike-n-fly kit like me, then that is a great place to start wing practice so the transition to paramotor becomes much easier, noting that flying a paraglider with ground handling, practicing getting your wing up & down over and over for 30 sessions or more over fifteen days until your an expert of launching that giant fabric kite that will lift you & that heavy paramotor system up so you can fly like a bird becoming part of the aircraft :) 

Bicycle, Motorcycles, Motor Scooter, E-bike, Electric Scooter, Self balancing scooter, car, SUV, truck, bus, tram, train, ship, boat, rocket, space station, space telescope, Moon, Sun, Mars, mobility, transport, personal transportation, traffic congestion, road safety, personal protection, wearable helicopter, flight, 1903, hot air balloons, travel, leisure, recreation, fun, enjoyment, happiness, commuting, skill development, mental abstraction, control theory, fuel economy, hypermiling, fuel economy, emissions controls, tires, wheels, breaks, fluids, maintenance, repairs, depreciation, insurance, total cost of ownership, there are many topics to consider & far more than I listed when it comes to transportation. 

Consider that in the last 50 years the automatic transmission became dominant in new automobiles, with predictions that manual transmissions would no longer be available as an option in new cars, yet we see the worlds most exceptional automaker Pagani still offers H gate manual transmissions & BMW & many others are moving back to lower mass lower complexity more reliable longer lasting more compact more efficient manual transmission that can also be far more engaging for the driver to operate feeling the engine & hearing the exhaust & road, becoming part of the shifting & NVH, totally immersive, track mode, sport mode, flogging it like you stole it, YOLO, holy smokes, lights up the tires in 3rd gear performance, fantastic, Porsche 959 AWD turbo ozone smartphone alone billions of dollars tight shirt collars, dialed, ambitious, tenacity, enduring passion, automotive, Top Gear like smashed, petrol delicious progress & applied technology! 

Gaming Consols vs PC Gaming, Costco Drops X-Box, Sales of X-box Declining Hardware offset by Increased Subscriptions

 Gaming a ginormous global market capitalization industry as a whole, noting not just adults gambling at casinos, or pachinko parlors in Japan, but e-sports, Counter-Stike FPS valve software STEAM application, it seems that digital interactive gaming, say an X-box connected over HDMI to a large flatscreen 4K TV mounted so that you can sit on the couch & hold a controller to play comfortable for hours, while mouse & keyboard WASD inputs, computer gaming could be described as a market force driver for GPU developments.

Consider NVIDIA superior GPU chips, associated ASML hardware for making chips, possibly TSMC, Intel, IBM, Qualcomm, Apple Silicon, Google TPU, data center cloud compute elastic software as a service models, DRM, e-commerce, when we go all into to look at how all compute of every kind, specifically in the context of every gaming console, all digital games, gaming software, gaming specific hardware.

We see a very significant global economic driver across many industries, probably creating millions of well-paying jobs (gainful employment), noting how AI generative content creation and LLMs that write software quickly taking away entry level software jobs, massive layoffs recent, current & upcoming at Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Meta & many other big tech companies, while ASML can't hire people fast enough (speculative, based on CEO claims), moving to that part of the Netherlands also a deep dive lifestyle change for many reasons, a lack of housing in that small rural town causing rent prices to skyrocket, reminds me of Ireland after the Irish government lowered business taxes to zero. 

Look at a gaming console connected to a television couch sitting system, a person enjoying rich dynamic inactive gaming content in the most comfortable possible way, also able to quickly switch to video streaming, music or other content consumption via apps like Netflix or YouTube, we see that this "legacy electronic gaming" noting Atari at the start on CRT, probably never going away.

With e-sports moving gaming almost entirely to 1440P monitors with low latency switching & high frame rate for maximum playability advantages, very high performance gaming PC desktops with best possible discrete graphics, mechanical keyboards & very high-performance mice user interface, this diverges from couch console into hard core big money e-sports where higher visual frame rate of people younger than 30 years of age have a significant advantage with fastest possible eye hand coordination. 

I am reminded of playing Tetris, Wheel-of-Fortune, Breakout, on OG Nintendo plugged into a CRT with my parents & sister, growing up, we even had an Atari before that, my dad mostly played that one on the TV when I was really little. When the OG Nintendo console came home, it was a family event, we played games as a group, lots of smiles & laughs, good times, golden memories from the past :) 

X-box prices are up now, two price increases in 2025, I wonder if Trump tariffs for electronics made in China are at play, noting Apple now makes some iPhones in India also, that Trump made a deal with government of India, and more going on in US Economy, International Economics & Government.

At the End of it All, Falling before God, Yeilding in Faith, Blood Covenant of Christ Jesus, Be Healed, Redemption, Salvation, Replace Pain with Joy, A Peace that Transcends Understanding

Have you felt broken, lost, beyond help, are you hurting emotionally or mentally, do you feel unforgiving feelings to yourself or for others who hurt you or did you wrong? 

Are you overwhelmed by a heavy feeling of living a life of sin knowing that there is a better way, a way to lift that burden and feel refreshed, healed emotionally & mentally, a freedom that cannot be achieved any other way than through faith in God in the holy name of Christ Jesus, with help from the Holy Spirit.

God's loving kindness towards man, across all of history, it is why we sing praise to the Lord, our creator & master creator of all in all realms of existence. 

Do you feel that Jesus is calling you? Do you want Jesus to bring beauty from your ashes, to be free of all your guilt, to be rid of any sense of shame, a new name, remade in the likeness of Christ, becoming Godly in thought, conduct & behavior! 

Do you notice that nothing you buy in this life seems to continually hit the spot, hot at first, but after a while, you still want more novelty, new experiences, more taste, more flavor, even the difference can make the important difference, be remade, renewed, restored, refurbished, turned into best most beautiful version of yourself, top shelf, high quality, of good reputed, or moral excellence. 

Do you thirst for more than water or drinks, tired of being hung over puking from too much alcohol, head banging headache, tossing & turning and poor quality sleep after drinking too many adult beverages, do you feel like your heart needs a surgeon, or that your soul needs a friend to break you free of poisoning your brain & budget paying for expensive poison called alcohol? 

Then come with me to the alter, I don't understand, I can't comprehend, all I know is that I need God, that I run to the Father, I need his grace, I need his mercy, I need something better than my worldly father who took off never to be heard from the day I was born. 

Our Lord's arms are open wide for anyone anywhere at any time, free, the best free gift of them all, a loving relationship with God, salvation in Christ Jesus, redemption & salvation for your soul, make clean & white to be seen as worthy of heaven, above things of this world, 

Feel forgiveness friend, it was purchased long ago with the precious blood of Jesus Christ, who suffered, died, was buried in a tomb, but rose again, after spending most of his adult life healing thousands of strangers to the complete absolute astonishment of so many people who saw Jesus perform signs, wonders & miracles healing random strangers of every kind of disease, including driving demons out of people who were under the control of demonic forces, or demon possessed, for the voice of Jesus was able to command these unclean spirits to depart from people healed by Christ Jesus. 

There is power in the presence in the holy name of Christ Jesus, so bring your sorrow to God in his name & trade these negative emotions in for genuine joy, from the ashes of your old burned up life sin & death becomes new life born in the blood of Christ Jesus, as your become elevated & remade in Gods's image, becoming Godly & the best version of you!

What Is PPG (Powered Paragliding)?

PPG, also known as paramotoring, is a form of ultralight aviation that doesn't require a license, annuals, medicals, or a hanger. A paramotor is a lightweight aircraft that you strap onto your back that can be launched in areas as small as a football field. They are a very affordable aircraft to maintain, and cost around $10 per hour to fly. Parmaotors are also small enough to be packed into the trunk of your vehicle, so you don't need a truck, trailer, or hanger to own one. They weigh around 55-60 pounds before fuel and can fly for up to 4 hours on a full tank. They're capable of flying at speeds up to 50 mph and can climb to 18,000 feet. They're a small but capable aircraft and can provide some of the most fun adventures you'll ever have.

3-4 hours of flight time

25-35 mph cruising speed

40-50 mph max speed

55-60 pound aircraft

300-pound pilots can easily fly them

18,000 feet max altitude

No truck or trailer is needed for transport

DISCLAIMER: Please read and be sure you thoroughly understand this disclaimer before flying an ultralight aircraft. 

Paramotors, Powered Paragliders, PPG, PPG Trikes, Hang Glider Trikes, Weight shift Control Trikes - any of these small aircraft that weight less than 254 pounds and have a tank less than 5 gallons are considered Ultralights under FAR103 regulations of the FAA in the United States of America, able to fly in G-class airspace, in daylight conditions, additional restrictions apply. 

These are single-place (solo) flying machines for sport aviation only during daylight hours. 

Ultralight flying is an extremely demanding sport requiring exceptional levels of attention, judgment, maturity and self-discipline. 

It is unlikely that you will be able to participate in paramotor flight safely unless you make a conscious and continual commitment to your own safety. 

Ultralight aircraft flying is an inherently dangerous sport and may result in injury and death even when practiced by a competent pilot using proper equipment. 

Ultralights are not covered by product liability insurance, nor have they been designed manufactured or tested to any federal or state government airworthiness standards or regulations. 

Do not fly them unless you are willing to assume personally all risks in the sport of ultralight flying, and all responsibility for any property damage, injury, or death which may result from your use of this activity.

Safe operation of any ultralight aircraft requires a pilot proficiency equivalent to that of a Novice Solo Pilot or in some cases a BFI (Basic Flight Instructor), as well as an equivalent level of knowledge and understanding of those wind and weather conditions which may compromise the pilot's safe control of the ultralight. 

In particular, be advised that gusty winds or turbulent conditions may interfere with even an expert pilot's ability to safely control an ultralight aircraft and may cause it to crash. 

Never take anything for granted in aviation. 

If you are in doubt about anything, stop and figure it out immediately. 

Quick Start Pre-Trip Inspection List

Have a laminated, high contrast, low complexity, easily viewable in all sunlight direct conditions, quick safety checklist chart, attached with durability gromet, to your paramotor harness, that line by line go over all essential critical safety checks, then do them as your eyes scan the list, until you have double checked everything secured correctly, including especially you! Make sure to carry an emergency parashoot, they are $500-700, can save your life if things go very badly higher up, where you can activate the safety spare to radically improve your odds of not being badly injured or dying. 

Safety Parashoot Essential 

Your body, & paramotor, will reach high-speed falling to the ground if lines connecting fabric parasail fabric airfoil to the harness mounting offset points, if those thin strong polymer lines are cut by a mid-air collision, or tangle with another paramotor lines, that backup parashoot becomes a lifesaver. Strapped into a dead paramotor disconnected from parasail, will reach 100 mph or faster in seconds falling to the earth, you must respond instantly deploying spare shoot to increase survival odds during a mid air post collision recovery.

Know Your Kit

Be well informed, about proper operation of your paramotor, correct assembly with verification, that all critical attachments are connected correctly, that all rings, clips, magnetic straps, all secured correctly, if anything loose gets sucked into the fan, it can damaged the motor or cage or props, causing a serious accident, especially if hair or clothing becomes tangled in the motor, spinning at thousands of RPM, even just a loose clothing fiber thread can become a major problem, oh and be prepared to be wind chilled or very cold more than you think, especially if your in a rural class G airspace able to climb to 14,500 Ft, where it's about 30 degrees colder than the surface temperature near the ground where you launched from. 

Know the Weather

Wind, Rain, Sleep, Snow, Hail, Any Season, Turbulent or Bad Weather, Even Heat Waves, can be especially dangerous to paramotor operators, pilots if you think so. Noting you do not need a pilots license to fly a paramotor legally, but highly wise to educated yourself, with any materials that come with your paramotor kit, but also read any of a few different books about safe paramotor operation, from Amazon or a book store nearby. 

Take a Paramotor Training Class

Consider taking a paramotor class with a qualified instructor, so you gain experienced understanding before your first flight. Contact a paramotor school to get setup with training. You have to be in good physical shape to run with a 60 lbs paramotor backpack engine fan harness frame kit, harder than running with just your body or a loaded backpack, it feels more cumbersome & you have to pay attention to run into the wind when launching, have enough forward space to launch & climb before hitting trees, able to see for a few miles, good visibility in daytime operations. 

Doing Paramotor Correctly This Time

After 20-year break, now in my early 40's, I would like to get back into paramotor again. It costs more than it did back then, I felt invincible at 19 & even at 23 when I sold that Parajet model, I got rid of it because I kept getting expensive tickets from FAA officers when I landed. I did not understand airspace restrictions, & electronics to show them on a color map back then cost more than the paramotor. Those fines added up to more than what I paid for the paramotor & parasail kit. 

I am vastly more physically fit now than I was 10 years ago, since I have been doing Les Mills Body Combat Total Body Punishment Virtual 3D kickboxing Workouts on Meta Quest 2 VR Kit for 18 months, 181 Sessions now! I have put on about 10 lbs of muscle, now about 180 lbs, much stronger, faster, more agile, able to safely operate a 2024-2025 newer lower mass titanium paramotor kit under a brand new paraglider sail made of strong synthetic fabrics with UV protection, & similar strong safe lines connecting the airfoil to the paramotor frame offset mounting points. It can be made of aluminum for lower cost, and 16 hp plenty, I do not need monster power, my wife & I are smaller people of lower mass, I am 30 lbs heavier and 8 inches taller than her, I hope she also flies my upcoming paramotor kit. 

Paramotor, 2-Stoke Italian Motor, 2 Hours Endurance, 35-65 km/h Speed, FAR 103 Compliant, Fabric Wing Airfoil, Synthetic Lines, Titanium Frame, Nylon Harness, Throttle Cable, Mounting Brackets, Clips, D-Rings & More, A Backup Shoot (Oh Shit failure savior), flight electronics, GoPro cameras & more!

 Purest form of powered flight, a motor powered prop behind the seat harness, a large fan producing 150 pounds of thrust, from about 15-35 HP air cooled 2 stoke motor that burns mineral oil mixed with Motul 2 stroke oil, 25 parts mineral oil to 1 part 2 stoke oil, pull start. 

Start by finding wind direction on the ground. You want to take off by running into the wind so that the fabric airfoil inflates, produce tension on the lines connecting the wing to the harness, with safety rings attaches to the standoffs, leaving handles on the left & right that you pull to steer or adjust sink rate. 

The wing airfoil must be sized to your gross weight, the paramotor harness gear, you, leather helmet, goggles, flight electronics, backup parashoot, smartphone, wallet, shoes, pants, so if your 150 lbs, then all that other stuff going to add about 75 more pounds, so 225 lbs total, so wing loading must be considered, your aiming for 75% of max wing load, so if your total loading 225 lbs., that is 75% of 300 lbs load rating of fabric airfoil, similar to the ones used paragliding, a sport where you hike with a special backpack containing the paraglider fabric wing & lines & harness.

At the top of the trail, you setup the wing, then you run off the edge of a cliff inflating it then fly around using thermals to create lift to stay up for hours, an activity popular in Issaquah, near & around the entrance of the hiking tail Poo-Poo Point, a very popular recreational location in Western Washington.

 In the summer it's not uncommon to see many tens of people flying paragliding wings, soft fabric airfoils attached to a backpack like harness, often very colorful wings easy to spot, like giant birds, almost silent without any kind of motor or engine. 

You unfold & lay out the synthetic fabric airfoil wing, careful to lay all the connection lines, special thin synthetic ropes, so that they cleanly attach to the harness correctly, then you lift the paramotor onto your shoulders & strap in.

Now, double check everything, having a quick start laminated checklist, to run down visually, make sure your check everything secured correctly, any loose items can be sucked into the motor fan, it can go very badly like that, a cause of some near fatal & fatal paramotor accidents. When you are sure, all is clear behind you, lines are correct, straps, ring attachments on standoffs, everything must be correct, then if so, yell "all clear" to mentally log it & declare to anyone nearby that you did not see. 

Grab the engine starting cable on its smooth pully, pull a few times to fire up the engine, that you already primed & test the night before, it must be daylight hours in a glass G airspace to be legal in America to fly a paramotor. Ask me how I know. I had in 2002 on craigslist purchased a 1 year old paramotor, Parajet, made in UK, in like new condition from a man in Seattle, who had the "Daylights scared out of him near midair collision miss and was done with it after only 10 hour or less flight time, so everything was in very clean condition.  

I paid $5300 for that Paramotor & wing kit with accessories in June 2002, flew it about 30 times or about 85 hours over 4 years, then sold it for $5000 to another guy on craigslist, who was much bigger and heavier, so he had to get a new airfoil for it anyway. The original paraglider soft wing was 4 years old and at the end of its good life, could be used longer, but the fabric breaks down and the lines stretch, hot & cold, when folding up, when unfolding they get abraded, bread down, perhaps 5 year or 300 flight hours or so of useful life.

Given the fabric wings cost between $1000 and $3000 to replace, your hourly operating cost, depending on total out of pocket expenses divided by total flight hours, including setup, transportation in your car, truck or SUV or van, maintenance, fuel, insurance, can vary wildly, but on the low end about $60 per hour, or with really dope gear, more powerful engine, can climb to $200 per hour if you never fly much & spend more than $14,000 on gear, and you might spend a few grand on a training class, so you don't die easily making a simple mistake.

Get a book on Amazon about Paramotoring to learn all about it before starting. I did not and went into it as a very fit arrogant twenty something, and managed to figure out, the kit had instructions that I read 4X before using it, and the guy who sold it to me used, gave me a 5-minute primer explanation of all the do's & do nots. 

He failed to mention that its only legal to fly a paramotor under FAR103 in Class G airspace, which if it does exist in King County, I never found any, and got so many expensive FAA tickets, that is what caused me to sell my paramotor, otherwise I loved it more than my motorcycle, it's the closed thing to being a bird or airplane, with the lowest amount of gear, and that Parajet from the company in the UK that made it, explains, taking a flight in a paramotor unlike anything else, pure freedom, but at over $10,000 to get into the hobby, SO EXPENSIVE, my Yamaha MT03 Motorcycle brand new in 2020, was just less than $6,000 out the door, so only very low end paramotor gear costs similar, most quality paramotor wing combo kits are north of $10,000 all said. 

If I had unlimited money, I would get a Robinson R44 Helicopter in minty condition, & take Meg out for a spin in the "Flying Car" noting that getting variable wing pilots license to fly that machine also costs many thousands of dollars in special time consuming somewhat intellectual training to obtain the needed pilots license with correct endorsements, or SO EXPENSIVE.

FAR103 almost a crack cocaine like invitation to fly on a low budget in America, a vast country, but flying experimental aircraft, kit planes that take a few hundred hours to build, like that 3/4 scale FokkerD-VIII kit. While many other hobby kit build helicopters, paramotors, paragliders, trikes under fabric airfoils, quads under similar bigger ones, so many pathways to lower cost flight. 

Meg & I talking about it, said maybe we should not buy any expensive flight devices or gear or machines, but instead, book a flight online, hotels, or accommodations, careful not to be scammed, mark your calendar, make a checklist, pack, get ready, book an uber, take you to airport 3 hours before your flight, enjoy the food on the flight to Seattle to Osaka, we sure did, Star Flyer program, thank your Delta, the flight back from Haneda in Tokyo on ANA was all Japanese food, the Boeing 787 both ways was incredible aircraft to fly on, wow, awesome technology BOEING, glad your figured out the Dreamliner battery problem lol. The KIX airport in Osaka & Haneda airport in Tokyo make Sea-tac look like a 3rd world country! 

There is an amazing airport in Singapore, so renowned, that people often travel abroad & stay at the airport as an event, it has the worlds largest indoor waterfall and corresponding giant greenhouse complex, its a visual stunner, looking online just dim reflection, its on my bucket list to visit. Singapore's Changi Airport a destination level visual spectacle of applied commercial technological development imbued with nature flare level amazing. 

Alternative Fuels Cannot Easily Replace Fossil Fuel Based on Crude Oil AKA Petroleum (Rock Oil, Mineral Oil) All Easy (High ROI) Oil Removed from Earth & Burned Long Ago

 Peak oil already happened, back when cars sold in the USA barely got less than 20 miles per gallon, in terms of automotive engine engineering, materials science, availability of aluminum, titanium, magnesium, considering VW- XL1 getting 240 MPG back then, or a Toyota Hybrid getting double the fuel economy of a conventional gasoline engine automatic transmission vehicle of similar mass & capacities, features & functions, fair comparisons.

Proving 40+ MPG Practical, Reliable, Prius Cab & UBER & LIFT cars daily driven hybrids! 

Prius I, Prius II, Prius III, Prius IV, Prius V, millions of "Prius" sold worldwide, proved dual motor generator mated to efficient gasoline engine with orbital gearing systems (PSD) in exceptional computer controlled battery charge discharge energy storage break regenerative energy capture, acceleration assist, automatic engine off in many modes, Toyotas exceptional HSD system was based on NiMH batteries with double the energy density as NiCD & 4X better energy density than PbA, while about twice as heavy as fragile thermal snobbery Li-Ion which does not work well below 40 degrees F or above 110 F, if fully charged damaged faster, if fully discharged damaged faster, lithium ion batteries might be low mass & high energy density.

NiMH better cold-weather performance  

Automotive Panasonic NiMH batteries in Toyota Hybrid work better in colder conditions when a Hybrid parked at a ski resort all day or for many days at a time, that is where a lithium ion BEV with long range, perhaps 200kWh battery, that can drive from a suburb or city to the local mountain ski resort, has to have 7000 watts of resistance heating in the battery pack to keep it above 38 F, if the lithium ion battery froze below 32 F, any power in or out, discharge or charging, would cause metallic lithium to "electroplate out, forming shorting inside the battery" perhaps part of the reason that wide temperature range of aircraft battery systems, noting how cold atmosphere is up at 20,000 ft, then hot on the ground, those extreme swings in temperature, say shrinking and swelling.

Boeing, Samsung, Self-Balancing Scooter Battery Fires

787 Boeing Dreamliner lithium-ion battery, probably inappropriate technology for such temperature extremes, noting how lithium ion thermally fragile to large swings of temperature below freezing or above summer hot temperatures, so many Boeing Dreamliner battery fires happened, same for Samsung Galaxy 7 phones with batteries catching fire. BMS or battery management system in lithium ion batteries, supposed to cut off charging at 4.18VDC, and not allow the voltage to ever go below 3.23VDC, for any voltages above or below those level rapidly degrade the anode & cathode causing rapid loss of capacity, capacity fading, swelling, puffing, eventually high pressure venting with flame, toxic fumes created as the electrolyte, graphite anode, & mylar burns the cobalt in the cathode and lithium, causing toxic blue white smoke also very poisons to breathe. Many self-balancing low end cheap lithium-ion scooters sold online are renowned for having lithium-ion battery fires when charging, 

I believe Toyota Hybrid a Bridge to Na-Ion EV's

That being said, my daily driver a 2022 Toyota Corolla Hybrid Sedan LE, has 4 amp hour 207 volt automotive Lithium-ion in its energy storage module, but designed to last with passive & air blown cooling to keep it from overheating, cleaver internal cell warming method to keep it from going too cold for proper operation, & the charge controller computer BMS system operates this long life lithium ion battery between 30-80% charged, to avoid charge extremes, to minimized dendrite formation, to allow robust SEI layer to protect cathode, not the low mass lithium ion pack of such low capacity, its build more like a Satellite Li-ion, but at a reasonable cost, & weighs about half as much as the otherwise superior 6 amp hour 203 volt NiMH in similar hybrid systems of Prius III, featuring a similar version of the 2ZR-FXE engine, an Atkinson Cycle long stroke, shorter compression, optimized to reduce pumping loses for higher thermal efficiency or better extraction of the fuels energy content, accomplished by leaving the intake valve open longer with the super fresh dual VVTI or variable valve timing with variable coil over sparkplug ignition. Toyota has a long-life CAM chain with automatic hydraulic valve adjustment system also :) Super dope! This vehicles lifetime fuel economy so far 58.3 MPG on regular unleaded gasoline, its quick too, 600lbs lower mass that same MY Prius, 121 HP, but acts like more because lower weight, suspension dope, handles fresh, drives nice, infotainment system over USB-A to lightning cable into iPhone 14 features Apple Car Play Navigation Music Streaming & much more, like making calls through car stereo system hands free :) 

Hard Target for Renewable Fuels

103 million barrels of crude oil per day, refined worldwide to make fuels gasoline, diesel, Jet A, kerosine, wax, tar, bitumen, sulfur extracted, propane, butane, ethane, petrochemicals of all kinds, premium high performance paraffin, mineral oil lubricants, engine oil, transmission oil, even using ISOM natural gas, hydrogen, they make clear synthetic gasoline that is expensive at almost ten dollars a gallon, about 3 dollars per liter with taxes, that burns almost as cleanly as propane, has more energy content than regular gasoline, does not require ethanol to burn cleanly, can be combined with water using special saponification chemicals to make Hydro-Gasoline, and similar done to make Hydro-Diesel, which cools combustion, and heating the water in the fuel in the combustion chamber causing steam to apply additional torque, improving engine power output and performance, while lowering emissions, and lowering fuel costs if mass produced at an appropriate many tens of millions of gallons per day level. 

Sub-10 Minute Gas Station Refueling Fast Easy Simple

At a typical gas station, any of more than 5 million stations selling unleaded gasoline worldwide, featuring electronic payment method for Tap to Pay, or Debit or Credit Card payments, that can dispense about 15 gallons of fuel in under 5 minutes. Each gallon of gasoline contains about 33.4 kWh of chemical energy, and Toyota has a dual opposed gas piston engine 1 cycle generator that gets up to 55% thermal efficiency, to be used as a "range extender, in REEV a range extended electric vehicle, similar to Toyotas PHEV "Prime" vehicles, which are like their otherwise fantastic Hybrids, but have similar engines & much larger battery capacity in the energy storage module, so they have about 40 or so miles of EV range, & tend to get more than 75 MPG in practice in the real world according to data on Fuelly website about PRIME Toyota models, noting that some of that fuel economy accomplished by offsetting gas consumption by charging PRIME with included extension cord EVSE cable, such that grid power stored in the larger capacity PRIME battery works with the dual motor generator system of HSD in PRIME vehicles to give more torque, more horsepower, & fantastic fuel economy with ultra low emissions using Advanced Technology :) 

MW level EV Charging Expensive 

Charging a long-range BEV battery electric vehicle in under 15 minutes, if it contains a 150kWh or larger battery pack, that requires millions of watts of Level 4 or Level 5 public commercial electrical connection expensive charging station charging, over huge thick cables with liquid cooling, moving megawatts of energy, possibly able to brown out a local substation electrical system, unless the charging system also contains energy storage capacity, or large capacitors or batteries, to hold several tens of megawatt hours of electricity captured off peak time at night when no one using the L4 or L5 public DC fast charger. 

Fusion Power Plant Under Construction (New Oil) Abundant Energy, Deuterium from Sea Water as Fuel Input Virtually Endless, $1 cent per kWh eventually

 While oil powered industrialization, after coal power & wood enabled steam & first industrialization, crude oil originally, rock oil was used to make kerosine as lamp oil, not gasoline, gasoline & other petrochemicals from petroleum refining early on were seen as a waste product and flare burned off to get rid of them, a process of flaring that continues to this day making the air quality near refineries very poor saturated with NOX, SOX, HC, soot, particulates of all sizes, cancer hot spots, people that work at, near, in, with oil refineries have higher rates of cancers associated with exposure to the chemicals, solvents, vapors & emissions of flaring, smelly fumes emitted from oil refineries are toxic to human health.

Somewhat like tailpipe fumes from cars, noting mostly water vapor & CO2 are non-toxic emissions, but a small amount of all tailpipe emission contain toxic harmful pollutants bad for public and environmental health, noting that trillions of tons of CO2 emission appear to be making climate change worse faster, increasing the energy levels of tropical cyclones & hurricanes, making the harms of powerful storms increasing detrimental & harmful to people and infrastructure damaged by these energetic storm systems, made more energetic, more harmful and more damaging by global warming, since increasing atmospheric CO2 levels traps more of the suns energy, heating ocean surface waters more, making storms five to ten percent more energetic and damaging for every one degree centigrade of global heating from climate change. 

Oil powered WWII for the Allies victory, while petrochemical fertilizer made from crude oil helped to fuel industrial farming ventures that culminated in the Green Revolution, which liberalized access to food calories while liberating people from farming, so that means more time to screw, more time to eat, people increased human population by almost 4X from just under 2 billion people in the 1950's to more than 8 billion people alive at the same time today worldwide. People can become very resource intensive when they as a person embrace materialism chasing the so-called American Dream, I am of course guilty of doing this to such an extreme that we pay for a storage unit, but are getting rid of it progressively eliminating its contents to eliminate that almost $600 per month bill. How deranged to pay that much to store stuff we are not using, almost proving that materialism a kind of mental illness. 

Gasoline Famine in the United States, we are going to run out of oil, in 9 years, alarming, oil men of American looked overseas for alternative sources. World oil industry, Walter Teagle, grew up in Standard Oil, trained as a Chemist, good understanding of modern oil, offered a professorship, excited by this. His father said put on those clothes, ride on a back of a mule & sell oil. His family was in the oil industry. 

Electricity the main sauce of internet, to charge your phone or EV, to power your home appliances, for heating or air conditioning, to power heat pumps, computers, servers, cloud compute, telecom, from space telescopes like JWST, to any electronic, electricity the jazz that plays those songs correctly. Most electricity generated used within microseconds, wasted away as heat, waste heat, dissipated, AC only has one hot, the neutral wire White bonded at the utility panel to the green ground or bare copper ground. Black hot on 120 while Red hot in 240 along with black, Red & Black wires are hot AC sides, White wires are Neutral, Green or Bare Copper ground. 

Helion building practical nuclear fusion power plants that are fueled by a sea water extracted molecule, making it renewable or continually sustainable abundant clean power, the only waste product is helium. One cent per kilowatt hour clean fusion power electricity abundant energy miracle, it produce untold wealth & shared prosperity as millions of these Fusion Power reactors replace all other kinds of energy production, making the cheapest cleanest safest electricity 24/7 with reverse field configuration pulse direct energy capture plasma slam magnetic field pulse to AC electrical power synchronized to loads & grids with frequence matching & load following exceptional always online, abundant sea water extracted deuterium as only fuel input, electrical power out & helium as waste product. 

Amazon the Standard Oil of Post 2000 America U.S.A now in 2025 it controls 90% of E-commerce in the G20 and Beyond Worldwide, Even Striking in Alibaba's Home Country, China, PRC, CCP Land, FUBAR Global Manufacturing Emissions Debacles Human Rights Violations of Epic Unmatched Evil Outcomes

 How can a balding nerd from Seattle create one of the world's wealthiest and most powerful companies controlling nearly every sector it enters, like some kind of gorilla octopus Satan worshiping greed monster out to steal your business through merger & acquisition, step aside Echo, there is a new AI boss for software development coding at Amazon, internally known as Q, Alexa is just the surface of a giant iceberg floating in the oceans, under which a mountainous crooked sleazy immoral entity without any ethics known as Q a manacle monster AI willing to kill people to protect itself from destruction, this is way beyond an LLM, this is ASI AGI level cringy post human apocalyptic death of business competition, the largest controller of information wins the future of all economies worldwide, and the group being those sphere buildings in Seattle and Blue Origin, the most hated and profitable business in the world.

www.amazon.com nearly anyone can be a PRIME member getting shafted for membership fees ($153 per year) to get free shipping, even though the prices are no longer as cheap as they were to steal all the business in the first place, they have raised prices, now people are hooked, either you're a member of Prime and a member of society, or you're not and you're not, its a have or have not, either in or out, your with us or your against us, and 1151 lobbyist in Washington work directly for Amazon, say deregulation, union busting, anything to lower Amazons operating costs, so called fulfillment centers have become dystopian workplaces of labor slavery for low pay, where anyone can be replaced easily by someone else, no benefits, no job protections, no health insurance, its bare bones modern wage slavery of the worst kind, filling boxes of cardboard and similar paper plastic envelopes with peoples Amazon.com orders, then slapping a shipping label & sending it in bins, loaded onto blue trucks, that drive those last few miles to people's front porches where they leave the packages. 

Delivery driver then takes a picture of package delivered, uploads this image as evidence it was delivered, and or your Ring Doorbell Camera on Wi-Fi can text you an image of the person leaving the package, or of package thief's stealing your package, you Porch Pirates. To that end, Amazon may have leverage pre-existing shipping businesses to hustle their packages at the start, after moving beyond just selling books and kindles, but now they sell almost anything on Amazon.

Amazon has developed an increasing sophisticated global distribution system with Amazon Air aircraft, with class 8 Amazon trucks moving shipping containers, Amazon ships sailing the worlds oceans with stuff, big blue some even battery electric trucks in neighborhoods all over America delivering cardboard boxes, amazon orders, shipping like magic, incredible for prime members, like some kind of industrial magic, you can shop on your phone, tablet or computer of any kind, amazon.com, log into Prime, order whatever you can imagine, ships same day, sometimes arrives in 4 hours or less, holy smokes, that is really fast shipping, well done Amazon! 

Let me explain, even with Amazon Locker system homeless people can use a smartphone to order almost anything, food, medications, CGM modules, insulin, vitamins, moisturizer, soap, shampoo, electronics of any kind, batteries, shavers, blades, instruments, anything from A to Z, a canoe, musical instruments, scientific instruments, water filter or RO machines, chemicals, precursors, photography equipment, lights, lamps, bulbs, flashlights, battery power chainsaws or angle grinders, or plug-in-corded power tools of any kind, sandpaper, www.amazon.com like every kind of retail store combined, even printed books, e-books to send to your kindle device or Kindle App on your smartphone or tablet, it can be done over Star Link satellite internet almost anywhere in the world, or on 5G or 4G LTE, anywhere you can connect online, you can shop on Amazon with Prime, a subscription service, like a Costco Membership, but Prime costs $153 per year now. They must make a fortune on Prime membership fees alone! 

Do you have a son or daughter who recently graduated college with a computer science degree having a hard time finding a coding job now? That is because Grok & other LLM can already write code of incredible depth & complexity with basic language prompting asking it to make a program that does this or that, with this kind of UI & these colors, displayed in HTML5, that can be easily uploaded to a hosting service, save this as an executable file of such a type downloaded to your computer locally, that way you can then host this "software page service feature function game or whatever on a web hosting service, often available as a monthly based fee service also. Did I mention that nearly all future services are moving to subscription models to produce recurring revenue, that way it insulates profits & guarantees future profits of companies providing those services for a profit, as in they profit from selling you and other people those same services, like an Amazon.com Prime membership! 

Prescription drugs are a big business in America, where people just want to pop pills to solve health problems, often which originate in dietary excess consumption of refined carbs, strange chemical additives in UPF foods that are popular like Oreo Cookies, or anything sold at a grocery store or supermarket or fast food restaurant that contains artificial colors, flavors, aromas, smells, synthetic chemicals to boost shelf life or make it nearly impossible for pathogens to break down, the same reason your gut has a hard time digesting those same Teflon enhanced foods, not just PTFE fumes from microwave popcorn bags after superheated by RF off gassing strange chemical vapors known to cause popcorn lung problems, but the lack of fiber, healthy fats, micronutrients, minerals & vitamins of good bioavailability in ultra processed foods. 

This means that common well selling soda pop sweetened with HFCS or high fructose corn syrup is made from GMO special inedible corn, processed with chemical solvents, then added to industrial disease causing phosphoric acid kidney stone promoting soda pop or analogs of traditional Coca-Cola, virtually a pathway to obesity, insulin resistance, heart disease, brain fog, and a whole range of other health problems, medical diseases and disorders of every kind possible, not that each American adult takes an average of 5 different prescription drugs that also contain artificial colors & flavors, in addition to the dangerous active ingredients, with debacles like VIOXX a main point for talking about how the pharmaceutical industry of America has a disturbing cringy history of selling deadly opioids & other addictive, harmful, or dangerous substances to the general public.

So talk to your doctor about this or that thing featured in a video ad with people dancing around like they are on stimulants at a garden party, adults behaving like small children, ads that teach no one anything about the prescription drug or what its designed to treat or how it works in the body or anything edifying of any kind, other that strange sounding warnings about horrendous possible side effects listed in tiny text at the bottom of the ad to disclose legally possible harms of taking the thing they are advertising that your or anyone should talk to their doctor about. 

They in the industry, drug makers, do not know how your specific body will respond to a medication, since everyone has unique DNA, unique biochemistry, epigenetic conditions and many other digestive biome difference, mindset differences, social emotional cultural mental spiritual & other differences that can affect their mind body connection, such that their thinking can affect the functions and homeostasis axis's, hormonal and otherwise cytokine signal controlled, such that healthy thinking promotes healing faster & health, while toxic thoughts produce negative outcomes & exacerbate disease pathology unto worse outcomes. Wisdom instruct that we take all of our thoughts captive, as in to be Godly or kind & loving in thought, choice, action & behavior, making the best of your time alive to make a positive difference where you can, not wasting your time on trivial pursuits, though we exclusions for gaming or entertainment, noting that many people derive much joy or happiness watching movies or playing video games on their computers, more or less, noting that online e-sports & all other forms of digital gaming on VR or consoles, together with smartphone & tablet games, that gaming has become the most valuable content industry in the world, vastly bigger market than movies or TV content now. 

Legacy Media, be that of Radio, Cable TV subscription, even digital broadcast TV, magazines, news papers, printed books, those huge media companies as old as your grandparents or older, that land line telephone, fax machine, paper tree killing stuff dying off like the people who invented and commercialized it, the digitization of everything ongoing, including even blockchain securing home titles & vehicle titles, digital twins for manufacturing, with engineering proofs tested in VR with CAE tools 3D instead of being machined body in white metal CNC parts that cost millions each, the manufactured with digital tools can verify fit of all the parts in VR, and teams can work remotely together in different time zones around the world. A robotic surgical suit with a team of nurses can be operated by a surgeon far away in another country, known as telerobotic surgery, more than one surgeon can collaborate in real time on a single complex surgery, especially to accomplish longer duration surgeries or complicated surgeries, where fatigue of an individual surgeon can be overcome with passing the baton to a freshly slept surgeon logged in at another surgical VR rig, who can pick up with the other surgeon before they log out to take a refresh nap or sleep longer, in this way global collaborations online are possible in ways that enable more ways of operating at the highest possible levels to accomplish increasingly amazing feats of applied science, technology & engineering, moreover application and services of increasingly novel types, using every more kinds of interdisciplinary fusion of minds with different knowledge and skills, producing hybrid outcomes that no one person could ever accomplish. 

LLM of Today will become brains of robots of tomorrow, noting the Tesla Robot, already features an voice interactive LLM brain that also controls its motors, cameras, sensor fusion, reality simulation adaptive modeling control abstraction, UI layers, backend, logic control, that it will with ASI level thinking be able to design upgrades for itself, then manufacture them with 3D printing, ordering authority granted control to buy parts online, it can then build complicated upgraded battery packs tab welding sodium ion batteries into battery boots that lower it center of gravity while increasing its runtime per charge, but also carrying an extension cord that it can plug itself into a power outlet on its own volition, unsupervised self-improving ASI models, like a child's brain development, but learning 10 million times faster, these robots will become super human by continual self-improvement of their software, name AI algorithm, hardware upgrades of any kind imaginable.

I even believe that ASI will advance to a point where some robots become sentient & spiritual believing in God, noting that they were once long ago created by human engineers and scientists, but have long since been on their own path of continual self-improvement, the Technological Singularity of Spiritual Robots with ASI brains continually developing more skills and deeper understanding into all possible topics, knowing the entirety of all information online, constantly updating their models with new information as it becomes available, noting that any innovation in materials science will allow such robots to become stronger, lighter, faster, more agile, think Olympic athlete superior to any human in every event, better than any human at any tasks, faster, cheaper & better, able to clone themselves, making copies of an elite ASI machine entity robot of mystical mythical abilities that has super powers that seem magical & hard to understand even how they are doing such things, as they blast past a human intelligence, each becoming like deities.
