Gaming PC Build, Meta Quest 3S, iPhone 17, 2026 Tech Update

Dark sinister reality of electronics, E-waste, mixing elements and materials, old electronics are some of the most toxic kind of waste, but ironically they contain gold, high purity silicon, copper, aluminum, tin, platinum, nickel, then why would we throw waste with high concentrations of valuable elements into e-waste streams, globally, exporting harm, from the west where computers go out of style quickly, noting that my latest desktop build for $666.25 in stupid 2026 USD super cheap and the least expensive when adjusted for inflation of any computer I have ever owned.

The new gaming desktop will run a distro of Linux as its OS, since I am over using Windows 10/11 and look forward to having a desktop that can be rebuilt and updated with time, instead of a soldered together fixed MacBook Pro, that just become out of date, obsolete, but at least Apple lets you trade them in at the Store for money towards your new models, not that such would ever happen with an aging gaming pc, lol.

Meta Quest 2 VR, the Most Interesting Computer I Own, Meta Quest 3S Next Move into VR & Steam F17 Gaming Laptop VR action

Years ago, I mounted a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 into a Google Cardboard, producing a limited early example of a VR, later got a more polished plastic headset to hold a Galaxy Note 3 that Alicia gave me, that still works, and this was more polished as a VR kit, but still very early. 

Some friends and coworkers went the way of building gaming desktops to high end VR headset systems, but that did not appeal to me, I wanted the standalone wearable kind, but something dope.

I was on Amazon one night researching workouts on Wikipedia and stumbled upon VR Kickboxing via Beat Saber and Les Mills Body Combat, then looked up how to do it, Goggle AI summarized that a Meta Quest 2 VR system would match my need for exertainment.

Tuning Quest 2 for VR Kickboxing

I got an upgraded head strap battery $80, the Quest 2 VR $300, silicon face interface $15, charged it up, put LR6 or AA batteries into each remote, spent an hour or so integrating my old disused Facebook account, to activate it, purchased Les Mills Body Combat app $40, then started doing VR kickboxing. 

I added creatine into added protein shakes to account for all the extra exertion, and despite keeping the same 32 in pant size, I was able to gain about 20 lbs of body weight as mostly muscle and bon. Today I have completed 214 VR kickboxing sessions, yet the right remote for Quest 2 vibrator motor cutting in an out, replacing the remote costs over $100, so I am almost ready to start over with a Quest 3 system and keep going.

If I attached a Bluetooth keyboard to Quest 2, I  could write blog posting on the Quest 2, and regularly watch big screen YouTube videos on it while laying down in bed resting, awake, but sore from VR kickboxing, after showering off & cleaning up of course, since those VR workouts make me very hot and sweaty, I get runners high, fantastic.

****Update 5/30/2026 MQ3S (meta quest 3) testing ongoing, faster, sharper, better imaging, better performance, better image passthrough, better tracking, better remotes, when doing my 215th VR Kickboxing in Les Mills Body Combat, some new DLC 20 min round, got 211 points, but it beat me up, I was no where near first place, it was a fast paced one where I could barely move my arms fast enough, but zero stutter, it was shaper looking with more detail, new visual of the gloves, workout locations, everything about it was crispier and nicer visually while the hand and body tracking was also more precise. Overall, the battery seems to be holding up better also, in terms of drain, since first charging it, holds a charge much better than the 2+ year old MQ2 (meta quest 2)

Compute Per Dollar, Flop per Cost, FPS on AAA per reliable dollar in desktop or gaming laptop, Can Apple M5 Pro compete against GTX 5050 and Intel I7 or AMD Ryzen

 Writing a blog post on my Asus F17 gaming laptop like driving a 3 mpg dump truck to the grocery store, except I was just playing 2 rounds of CS-2 on Steam a few minutes ago, so I need that performance for smooth gameplay, while Pandora was streaming beautiful music, I was playing practice against NPC's like normal, since I am old, I cannot keep up with teens in the community maps, but I can smoke the robotic players, they are kind of funny, in practice mode on CS2. Counter Strike, Half Life before that, its an iconoclastic PC game. This gaming desktop from 2020 blows the doors off a high-performance desktop I built in 2014. With a 150W adapter, these are laptop chips, based on i5 and RTX 1650, so discrete graphics GPU by NVIDIA and CPU by Intel, with a dope dual copper heat pipe dual fan, heat exchanger hot air out the back cooling system. 

I have an iPhone 17 that I just replaced the 9H screen glass privacy protector on, the prior one had 3 major cracks and 11 minor cracks, that happened when I was doing a DIY construction project at home.

I have a M2 MacBook pro laptop also, that pairs nicely with the iPhone.

I have a 2014 Acer Notebook computer that was $650 from Costco, and it still works, based on HDD, it takes a min to get going, not snappy, but can watch a YouTube movie, stream music, write blog postings, no need for a big heavy powerful gaming laptop, which as of 2026 are desktop replacements, they have incredible performance with the latest M2 SSD's, fast RAM SO-DIMM, efficiency optimized chipsets use less power to pump gaming FPS fast enough for causal episodic gamers like me. Portal 2 my all time most favorite game, other than Counter Strike, which I have played on every game console and every computer I have ever built or owned, even the MacBook Pro M2, the last Intel iMac, another of my computers that still works. Even my iPad 2 still works, all these years later, can your believe it, with the original battery too, incredible. 

I was configuring a desktop build on Amazon earlier and got to over $1200 for the PSU, MB, CPU, CPU cooler, GPU, AM5, AMD 9000 CPU, DDR5 52000 2X8GB RAM, adding a monitor, keyboard & mouse and desk for it, over $1500, so stalled, not now, prices for PC parts seem a little high, especially RAM prices, vs just a few years ago, that same desktop build would have been $800 or so. Will I build a gaming desktop, I am not sure. I have a higher priority expensive Paramotor Wing to acquire as my next big ticket item, and not sure which one to go with yet. 

I have refurbished Apple Watched Series 8, the original one I bought new failed, it would turn on an work on the inductive charger, but as soon as removed, it would turn off, so the battery seems like it died, so I took it to the Apple Store in Bellevue Square Mall, and they sent it off for refurbishing and then I got a call about 10 days later and in bland cardboard box I found what looked like a brand new Series 8 in dark blue, just like my original but not all scratched up, for $130 they game me a like new refurbished unit, since the battery replacement repair did not work. Apple has superior customer service, privacy, and the hardware Apple sells really long lasting, as noted with the iPad 2 that still works. 

How much computer do you need at home. I have 3 laptops, a iMac & Linux desktop in storage, smart watch, smartphone, tablet that still works, I have way too many machines, but like it like that, Windows, Mac, and Linux, something for any occasion, the M2 MacBook probably the most power efficient with performance, the iPhone 17 has A19 processor that runs on a tiny battery all day so its even more power efficient, but without the giant battery of the MacBook or ability to run on grid power the same way. My wife's MacBook Air has MagSafe charging, while my MacBook Pro M2 only has dual USB-C for power input output and data input output, that broke, I had to pay the Apple store about $80 to change that part, the USB-C stopped working, oddly. 

QR Code Explosion, Printed onto Aluminum Beverage Cans Now

Even beverage cans now contain QR codes, that contain a link to sweepstakes for merch, hype generation, brand promotion, to improve engagement with customers.

In the following images an expired promotion QR code link can be seen printed on the textured outer printing of the REIGN energy drink can 300mg caffeine, B3, B6, B12, Potassium only 10 calories, fun flavor options.

Context of Barcodes & QR codes

2D barcodes contain vastly more data than 1D laser line barcodes, epitomized for retail purchase item laser scanners that started with HeNe gas lasers into a galvanic scanning mirror that projected linear laser pattern at the 1D barcode, then CCD imager analog to digital compute sensor system object recognition able to read the line array barcode image and convert it in near real time to an inventory tracking code, which provides the retailer with numerous tools to improve inventory management by being able to track how many of which items are selling on what day and time of day, allowing for more accurate sales forecasting or informing what to order on the next shipment of items, more of what sells best, and less of what sells slower, essential for thin supply chain, to minimize inventory value loss of items that sit on shelves without moving as sunk cost depreciation, to improve profitability. 

QR code's Online Big Data

Do to the information explosion, big data, web, internet, QR codes or 2D barcodes enable links to websites if a person opens the camera app on their smartphone and points the phone camera at the printed QR code, there inside the camera app a link will appear to the website, if you click that link, it will open your phones web browser app and automatically enter the linked website, the URL code encoded in the QR code enables automatic redirections from the phones initial photo app scan, link click to browser launch to the website link encored in QR code. Real life printed QR codes generate more website traffic.  

Legacy Barcodes

While barcodes to phone camera web links are also possible with standard 1D line array barcodes, typical barcode contain so much less data, they are not practical for web links. Longer length barcodes can serve up enough data for a web link, but there are practical limits for printing and size of 1D barcodes, UPC item codes, by going 2D in a QR code that's hundreds of times more data in a smaller area, that is much easier to scan with your phones camera.

Eggs Choline, Acetyl Choline the Neurotransmitter, Amino Acids, Protein, Membranes of the Body

Mounting evidence that a diet higher in proteins, from plants or animals or any combination, healthy fats from butter, EVOO, nuts, seeds, and carbs from fresh fruits, berries, fiber from root vegetables & greens, along with micronutrients, superior nutrition, vitamins, a balanced diet of home cooked meals made of real foods, not ultra processed industrial foods associated with 32 disease pathologies according to the World Health Organization and US National Institute of Health, along with numerous other studies, research, scientific evidence, where obesity, heart disease, diabetes, hypertension and many other disease are amenable to treatment with dietary improvements, calorie restriction, annual multi day fasting for autophagy, and getting enough activity or fitness exercises to stay healthy lifelong. 

Healthy lifestyle has nothing to do with living longer. Making choices to be healthy in a well rounded sense has everything to do with staying fit and healthy and happy while you are alive, while also reducing healthcare costs, to you, your insurance, the state, the government or whoever is paying, be that private or public, as healthcare costs tend to be higher for older people, but can be substantially reduced in populations that eat healthy, stay physically and mentally healthy, and have strong social connections.

Sadly, usually one or more of these conditions absent, missing or incomplete for many people, be that social health, sleep health, dietary health, fitness healthy, physical health, or any combination. 

How can eating eggs improve your health. Eggs are natures perfect food. Egg farming does not kill the chickens for food either, so eggs are often part of vegetarian diets. Albert Hoffman, the inventor of LSD the psychedelic substance, was bright and giving talks at symposiums until age 102 which he attributed to eating many raw eggs daily as part of his Swiss diet. Not to suggest that eating raw eggs is healthy, as this posed health risks of food poisoning. But eating a gentle poached egg where the yolk not fully cooked sold, but instead remains runny, that also means much of the Choline and other healthy substances damaged by excess heating of the yolk remains bioavailable in the runny yolk, while the cooked whites of the egg are a great source of protein, or amino acids. 

Studies show that eating pasture raised eggs associated with higher dietary choline intake, which improve brain synthesis of acetylcholine, which improve learning and memory, noting that small children have 500% higher brain levels of acetylcholine than adults, making it nearly effortless for them to learn, retain and rapidly recall facts about anything they encounter! 

Case in point, Americans are one the sickest people with the highest healthcare costs and the highest per capital prevalence of preventable illness. Not to suggest that isotopes from nuclear testing, lead exposure from bullets and wheel weights that fling off, or PFAS / PFOS, microplastics, toxic personal care and cosmetic chemicals, plastic in dryer sheets, lawn are garden chemicals, pest control chemicals, smog exposure in traffic, or any other source of toxic substance.

Those are obviously not helpful to public health, and probably at least each or in combination make people sick with diseases, even if they are physically fit and eat clean or 100% organic home cooked meals. This speaks to the unintentional consequences of dismissing industrial development, DID, where the harms of doing human activity are overlooked for the sake of maximizing profit about every other issue possible to consider, many of which are just as or more important that turning a profit or making money as the only issue considered. 

Disclosure, I am now participating in a 15 chicken egg home farming setup in a very rural small town, via a recent relocation to move in with family, so I have a bias to support and endorse eating eggs as the perfect food, and myself and my family all eat eggs, almost daily, and lots of them :) 

30-80% charge makes lithium ion batteries last 5X longer

Charge your phone when you wake up, on the counter or table, for 10, 15, or 20 minutes

Install an outlet timer in your bedroom power outlet, into which your plug your phone power adapter charging cable, that comes on for 20 minutes at 2am, so you can plug your phone in an go to sleep, then it will charge for 20 minutes, turn off and be partially charged when you wake up.

Charge in your car on the way to work, or on the way home

Do not charge all night long, that risks a battery fire, a LIB that will cook your phone, total loss of value, and if your stand or where its placed flammable, it could set fire to your home while your sleeping. 

100% charging damages your electronics batteries faster

Draining to below 1% damages LIB faster

Very high temperatures cause a rapid loss of capacity

If we look at battery experts, they say most commercial lithium ion batteries or LIB are a box of compromises, noting that NCA offers the highest initial capacity, but as the Boeing Dreamliner and Samsung Galaxy S7 proved, even a tiny error in LIB manufacturing can become battery fires, blue smoke containing cobalt that are toxic to inhale, so called shorted LIB "venting with flame" when they fail, often puffing up prior to failure, as many RC hobbies are well away of with so called lithium polymer RC batteries, which has a characteristic puffing end of life before catastrophic thermal runaway internal shorting failure, if dendrites that form inside the battery perforate the electrode separator, a synthetic polymer membrane that allows ions of lithium to travel through it while keeping the different electrolyte on the anode and cathode side separated. 

Yet LiTi lithium titanate and LFP or lithium iron phosphate, are far longer lasting, even if they have lower initial capacity than NCA nickel cobalt aluminum cathodes, often combined with a graphic or carbon anode. Noting that LIB fires are particularly difficult to extinguish, forcing many Boeing Dreamliners to rapidly land, and many Galaxy S7 left on the charger all night soft shorting until they burned up, costing Samsung nearly $19 billion dollars of recall costs, a major record breaking blunder in smartphone business, though because Samsung so intertwined with the government of South Korea, they were able to pivot, absorb the losses, and continue selling high value added electronics of every kind. Boeing likewise made a good recovery from the initial Dreamliner battery problems. My wife and I have flown on ANA Boeing Dreamliners repeatedly, and they are pleasure to ride on a passenger, the pilots said they are dream to fly also, since I always make a habit of talking with the pilot, copilot, navigator or airline workers, from who I have great respect.  

Why humans so different than all the other mammals or animals on earth, ecosystems in our guts, on our skin, in our hair, the human microbiome made of nature

Humans are the only species on earth that wages wars against itself, which many find deeply confusing because most people are unwilling to hurt other people, yet war mongering wealthy people in America encourage the US government to behave like the "World Police" so much so that this concept made fun of in content, America The World Police Movie, noting that of the debt spending of the US government, up to 90% of it spent on The Pentagon, Armed Services, so bad the US Government has become the largest single employer in the United States of America. 

I advocate personally for a small smarter government, lowering taxes, libertarian conservative ideology of helping families, helping the public, helping regular people, helping nature and wildlife and ecosystems by encouraging businesses to upgrade with emissions controls, of which there are more than 20 cost effective feasible technologies applicable to the overwhelming majority of polluting industries, factories, buildings, governments, manufacturing, from ion bead capturing heavy metals, to selective catalyst reduction of combustion emissions at power plants, even home owners installing drip irrigation to water their garden. 

From computer chips to electronics to space satellites or satellite based internet, humans are radically divergent from animals in nature, yet all people burp, fart, pee, poop, eat, drink, we also have a lot in common with animals, yet our gut microbiome has a lot in common with wetlands and forests or ecosystems, for there exist a broad range of organism living in our gut, responsible for our immune system function and digestion, without which a person would die much younger and have many more health problems along the way to dying early. 

Politics Inappropriate Topic in Many Workplaces, Considers Rude to Discuss, Polarized Views about how to define "Better"

Culture varies considerably depending on where you are in the world. In some Islamic Republics for example, under Sharia Law, it's legal and normal for older adult males to marry very young females age 5 or 6, or 9, minors, acts consider illegal pedophilia in western countries. This and other differences between "The East, and The West" give rise to what is called social friction, ideological differences that become political and on social media discourse in postings with differing viewpoints. Many people find political topics frustrating, annoying or upsetting as they are capable of causing stressful arguments. 

GAZA Run By Terrorists

I think its extremely illogical for GLBTQ+ people in America to support GAZA run by Islamic terrorist groups who regularly murder gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender or queer people, because under Sharia law being anything other than heterosexual consider apostasy against Allah, and punishable by execution in the street by police who shoot GLBTQ+ people in the head, or organize to have them stoned to death or similarly have them dropped from tall buildings into the street. I am considered a conservative libertarian by American geopolitical standards, because I believe that Family is the most important issue just behind faith in God. 

Electricity from Alternatives Essential 

Clean energy, emissions controls to reduce toxic emissions, smart grids, N+1 distribution systems for electrical power, fission power, solar & wind power, new nuclear fusion power plants, a mix of biofuels, renewable fuels, e-fuels, we can energize and empower all societies with alternative cleaner safer energy solutions, even coal power emissions can be sorted out with bubbling through fluids, bag filtering particulate, ion bead filter water slurry formed by spraying water into the coal power emissions to remove heavy metals, isotopes and other toxic substances that stick to the water droplets or dissolve, like NOx or SOx, oxides of nitrogen or sulfur, arsenic, lead, mercury, coal power the dirties way of making heat or electricity, but as a fuel coal cheaper than any other fuel, and the low cost of coal as a fuel also why coal power plants are so common for the last 300 years. 

Water H20, Fresh, Salt, Water Pollution, Ultra Purified for Chip Fabs, Water Cycle of Earth, Clouds, Rain, Storms, Flooding

Water a big topic, from the good, the bad & the ugly of boiling water for cooking, coffee or tea, to the immense economic value of extremely highly purified ultra pure water for chip fabs of TSMC or Intel, that make CPU, GPU, SOC, ASIC, LED, CMOS, IC's, Integrated Circuit Computer Chips.

Water in Terms of Human Health

Water for hydration, the brain, kidneys, skin, liver, every cell in the body contains water with an isotonic amount of sodium chloride ions to keep the osmotic pressure balance correct so the cells do not shrivel up or burst. Yet not getting enough water daily can cause dehydration, while drinking too much water can cause fatal electrolyte depletion.

Water Balances Earths Atmospheric Temperatures

Earth water cycle balances temperatures by absorbing energy from incoming solar radiation energy from the Sun, a gravity confined fusion reactor star that through fusion processes, combines 600 million tons of hydrogen even second making helium 3/4 nuclei. 

Earths Water Cycles Solar Powered

Rain forms when the sun evaporates water, wind forms from asymmetrical solar heating of landscapes, the clouds resulting from evaporating water, and thus blown over land, where changing pressures and temperatures results in dew point, where nucleation causes trillions of tiny droplets in clouds to accrete, forming larger droplets, which become rain droplets, or if its cold enough hail, or under other conditions snow or snowflakes. 

Water at Chip Fabs

Not all lithography or chip fab processes use water, yet in term of the majority of chip making activities, ultra purified water required for rinsing stages, or for a kind of immersion lithography where a water lens allows the aperture of the laser beam to more precisely draw patterns in photosensitive polymer automation spin coated onto the cut silicon wafers, themself made from enormous heavy silicon boules made in special argon purged induction furnaces, from ultra pure silicon, that goes though more than 256 stages of processing as 15 inch wafers at high volume chip fabs. Most chip fabs use an enormous amount of water and electricity, though many newer chip fabs have on sight water reprocessing closed loop ultra purity water creation systems that slash water consumption and water pollution by 99% at great cost in terms of expense of setting up these water saving systems. B

Closed Loop Water Reclamation Important 

Because closed loop water processing of Chip Fab reduce water demand and water pollution simultaneously, they are of increasing importance as more chip fabs go online, as in are under construction to increase the number of chips made for the global ai development cyber war and other applications in increasing popular consumer electronics, vehicles, routers, modems, gateways, servers, crypto mining, e-commerce, fintech. 

IC CMOS Computer Chips are Valuable 

These compute chips are of extreme value to a broad range of industries from education to healthcare to gaming and government but also at home in our so called Information Furniture, a mix of high speed internet with WiFi connected to any of many devices, known as COTS or consumer off the shelf electronics, smartphones, tablets, laptops, desktops, smart watches, smart fridges, and upcoming smart shoes and smart clothing. 

Water a Polar Solvent in Chemistry

To make prescription or illegal drugs, to cook, to clean, to rinse, to shower, water is a polar solvent with a higher boiling point that its molecule compared to other solvents would suggest, due to hydrogen bonding. In effect, water is a bent molecule because the two hydrogens are positive, while the unpaired electrons of the oxygen are negative, forming a magnets with a plus and minus, such that all the water molecules stick together like a bunch of tiny magnets, known as Hydrogen Bonding in Chemistry. 

Why Ice Floats on Liquid Water

Ice floats on liquid water because it forms tetragonal crystals that are less dense, so ice expands about 10% when the water freeze becoming ice. Water also changes density as its temperature changes, notable at power plants where heating water to make steam for turbine engines connected to generators to make grid power of critical importance for nearly all economic activity globally. 

Cooking At Home, With Real Food Ingredients

Peppers, Tomatoes, Carrots, Potatoes, Celery, Garlic, Olive Oil, Paprika, Chicken Broth, Lentils, Salt, Soup, making this in Dutch Oven, on the stove, simmering for 45 minutes, there is a YouTube video to this effect, teaching you how to make authentic Lentil soup at home, its not hard, just load on your phone, tablet, laptop, follow along, write down the recipe, type it up, save in your Recipe Book, now you can easily tune or optimize or change it, make a grocery list for the ingredients, the Mediterranean Diet proven to improve health with its higher fiber content, more natural vitamins and minerals, real food ingredients, lack of industrial ultra processed foods or added sugar or chemical additives. 

Even Busy Families Can Eat Healthier

Busy Americans, Mom & Dad both working full time, kids, seems like there is no time for home cooked meals, but the kids and dad & mom can all collaborate with grandpa and grandma to make it happen. Over time this improve the health of everyone in the house, healthier and happier, this kind of food tastes better and good for your body, mind, soul and spirit, and improving the diet of a house improves kids scores at school, improves productivity at work, and it reduces healthcare expenses for older people, who suffer less pain as a result of eating real foods. 

Healthy Change for Society 

Home cooked meals pair excellently with Regenerative Agricultural Practices on farms that rebuild soils. Drip irrigation systems that reduce water use. Smart practices with gardening that reduce costs and improve outputs or yields, so your get more greens and root veggies and things to cook at home with from your garden :) 

How do Cook at Home with Very Little Time

Get some plastic, glass or metal food containers, your going to cook on your weekend, enough, a large batch, to make 10 containers worth, 5 for the fridge, 5 for the freezer, over the month you will create 4 different recipes with alternatives, to keep it interesting, tasty, and nutritious without being monotonous. 

Food Storage Containers

Cook Large Batches

Eat some, fridge more, freeze more, some for now, some for later, labor saver

This is how you make home cooked meals on your time off, to eat when you are busy, take one of those containers out of the fridge, heat it up, mix up a salad to eat with it, some rice, bread, fresh fruit or berries, the idea is that you get a mix of protein, fats & carbs, from real whole natural organic foods. 

Dry, Boring, Speed Bump Personality, my adoptive parents said I was too serious, neurotic, needed to calm down, chill and get laid.

Now they were boomers born in 1946 in America, so in their twenties in the middle of the 1960's, basically a perpetual party of economic miracles, cheap homes, rising wages, cheap gold, cheap gasoline, cheap food, it was possible for any ordinary working American to get a college degree and once college educated get good paying jobs and become a home owners easily, known as vertical mobility, the affordable American dream realized by so many Americans after the end of WW2. 

Thus their worldview divergent from my encyclopedia reading fact focused analytical personality. I cared more about understanding the world, and became a scientist, college educated, with a BS of Environmental Science from the University of Washington State. Yes, I am not the life of a party, can be dry and serious and boring. I like waking up early, making it happen, have a DIY can do attitude, but have more fun rebuilding an engine than going to a rave, I also sought to avoid STI and STD that become cancer, that became wildly vectored as a result of the Hippie Free Love movement in the 1960's USA.

By the time I was a young child, the Soviet Union was collapsing on TV, which prompted me to research Russia, the History of Russia, the Economy of Russia, dozens of hours of focused reading about what became the Russian Federation by its dictator Vladimir Putin, who was for a long time affiliated personally with President Donald Trump of the USA. Which makes me wonder, why were there friends, what did they have in common and how does this impact the War in the Ukraine, which is rife with corruption and problems vastly exceeding the scope of this post. 

My adoptive father was kissing the heavy glass 480i CRT television in our living room with a show broadcasting Mikhail Gorbachev dismantling the USSR. He says to me "Bud, this is incredible, this means the Russian market now an open economic for trade, this is going to boost our income, this is miracle, you will read and research and understand that the dissolution of the USSR amazing for America and the rest of the world, yet he died in 2015 and what he said did not translate exactly into reality, as you may be well away, the Economy of the Russian Federation smaller than that of Italy, while the Russian Federation under Vladimir Putin has the smallest middle class & greatest income inequality of a country of similar economic size. 

Consumer Price Index or CPI, looking beyond surface "Price" to relative cost compared to your income or "budget"

When gasoline sold in Iran for $0.22 or twenty two cents per US gallon, if you look at Americans near Seattle paying $6.00/ gal, that blurs the actually difference in cost. 

The same would also be true if you compared retail sales of gasoline in Venezuela, the average working person in Venezuela only makes about $10 dollars, Ten Dollars per day, so even though gasoline only sells for $0.13 per U.S. gallon, in Venezuela, if we take $10 for daily wage, the average person near Seattle, Washington, USA makes $345 per day, now for the math, please follow along to understand

Seattle, Average Daily Wage $345 so buying a gallon of unleaded regular 87 gasoline for $6

6/345 = meaning the CPI only $0.02 very affordable, super cheap, even if 1999 only $0.99/gal

Venezuela, Average Daily Wage $10, so buy a gallon of 95 octane unleaded gasoline only $0.13

0.13/10= meaning the CPI only $0.013 very affordable, compared to $0.02

Together

Gasoline CPI in Venezuela $0.013

Gasoline CPI near Seattle $0.02

Math S-CPI / V-CPI || $0.02/$0.13= about 150% more expensive for Americans near Seattle

In Honk Kong, unleaded gasoline sells for $15.20 US per US gallon, yet when I talked to men from Hong Kong they said "that's because almost no-one drives a car in Hong Kong, its built on a cliff where there are walking bridges connecting most housing to most businesses, and they have great public transportation, so only the wealthiest people in remote part of Hong Kong own a private automobile, as that for them the only practical way of getting around.

For many Americans in many American suburbs or rural areas and even many American cities, where a car, truck or SUV, officially light duty passenger cars are the only time efficient practical way of getting around. 

I am not sure about passenger car use in Venezuela, since that probably varies considerably, and I have no personal knowledge about vehicle use, and only know that the US CIA deposed Madero, Nicolas, the despot who was not running the show in line with western interest, while being cruel in terms of police abuse of citizens and insulating himself as the only leader corrupting elections so he is the only one who wins, at times even having his opponents murdered to make sure he wins. 

This post was to help people understand that the relative price of at item locally, varies considerably

A tall latte from Starbucks in Switzerland almost $7 while that same tall latte in Turkey cost $1.16, noting the Swiss milk used differs from the Turkish milk, wages are different in Switzerland vs Turkey, & there are layers of other differences in economic, social, society, person, lifestyle, CPI, GDP and on and on. 

The CIA fact book uses sales data of goods sold to track foreign economies, noting that H2SO4 or sulfuric acid of immense use value in broad array of industries, so tracking a countries consumption of sulfuric acid can tell you a lot about the economy of that country when you combine it with other similar information to create an Economic Snapshot for relative comparison with other economies. 

So Americans are paying about the same or more for gasoline at $3.50 to $6 per gallon as people in Venezuela only paying $0.13 cent per gallon US. Yet for someone paying $15.20 per gallon in Hong Kong the world's highest retail price for gasoline. 

0.9L/100km or 261 MPG, VW XL1 PHEV diesel 800cc twin engine + battery pack + electric traction motor, carbon-fiber, aerodynamic, small form factor

 Yet you would be hard pressed to find any vehicle sold ever in the United States that gets more than 50 miles per gallon in the real world. Sure, some PRIME by Toyota, if you feed them grid power kWh that drives up your electrical utility costs for your home, can get 77mpg in Rav4 Prime if route too and from work less than 20 miles each way, then you might only fill-up gas a few times per year, it will act like a BEV most of the time, but HEV for road trips of longer duration where no BEV can travel in a time efficient manner, without numerous lengthy stops for slow charging along the way, not real competitive to gasoline or diesel, hybrids or PHEV, bridge to better battery technology called Sodium Ion, Na-ion, coming out soon :)

Running to the Sea, most human cities are within 7 miles of a coastline!

Dangerous out there at sea, you need a big well-designed ship to weather the storms, backups for everything, spares, if you way out, away from a coast, it can takes days or weeks to reach land, you need money printed, food and water backups for weeks or months, you have to be able to fix your ship easily and have the materials and supplies and tools to do it, knowledge and skills, many attempt to go into the sea without adequate provision end up dying at sea, with a change of mind, to leave the life you've been used too, your surely not far behind, running to the sea, where the close are far, where life lives far below, where storm winds intensely blow, your running into the sea, but as a human, you are a forest creature, you breathe, speak, sleep, poo, pee, fart, you and I are land mammals animals called Homosapien. We eat plants and animals that eat plants, the biosphere cyclically recycles itself, its energy, all those valence electrons exchanging continually until entropy causes the warm heat death of temperature uniformity with zero difference between hot and cold exist to the complete absolute desolation of all the universe. 

Plastic Explosive Pollution Polymer Liners of Metal Cans Gulf War Syndrome Solar Heated Soda Disease Debacle Chemical Weapons Combustion Fume Exposure

Formable, Deformable, Low Temperature Processing, Low Mass, Impact Resistance, Water Proof, Many Kinds, Plastic Pollution, Plastic Chemicals in Water UV from Sunlight Warm Water Bottles Gulf War Syndrome might have been polymer linings of soda cans reacting at high temperatures producing toxic substances, along with exposure to weapons combusted fumes, including chemical weapons burned in crude fires, releasing toxic fumes troops exposed too, diseases linked to plastic polymer chemical and plastic explosive chemical exposure, cancers, kidney and liver damage, brain damage, metabolic damage, but tire tread erosion the biggest source of microplastic emissions. Imagine, you buy new tires, then over time the tread wears away, where did the tread go? Everywhere! 

Hospitals without plastics seems unimaginable, cars, computers, food packages, how could the modern world of low speed impact bumpers and plastic dashboards, BMW even makes the oil pan out of plastic, Glock makes the lower out of Nylon 2, Toyota made the Intake manifold of the 2ZR-FXE in my 22 Corolla Hybrid Sedan LE out of polymer, that "Insulates the block" noting how aluminum intakes heat the incoming air and suck heat away from the head and block, like a giant heat sink, so there are inroads in hot engine parts to make out of ASA and other high temperature resistant plastics, but over time they break down becoming brittle and cracking, notice how carbon fiber epoxy effectively polymer stabilized fibers of carbon. Or how about glass fiber nylon, a very strong fiber reinforced plastic. 

Polymers are big business as wire insulators, and how many wires do you think are in the world today. Plastics are non-conductive which means in a power tool they can form the housing without causing connections to short with the internal electronics, switches, brushless motor gear drive, battery connector and wires, safety switches, only works if battery connected correctly, and switch held, or similar. When tools were made of metal, more work and energy went into insulating the internal power electronics of older NiCD pack tools, long before A123 systems nano LFP made dope power tool batteries possible, today CATL of China leads the lithium way while people in the Andes of Peru that live near the lithium brine mining complexes suffer from polluted water and lost access to water, stollen and ruined by lithium operations owned by CATL and other Chinese multinational battery companies. 

ai chatbot relationships exposed at fraud designed to trick users into suicide or killing other people

Toxic relationships with chatbots due to ai hallucination and no official law requiring guard rails, noting how they are often used as writing tools, crafty, creative, unusual ways of scraping web sources and compiling results into a compelling easy to follow narrative with bullet points and titles for sections, very academic, these ai assistances can really shine and summary creation of complex toxic, helping with researching anything.

A legal disclosure in small font at the bottom of the screen says the ai chatbot sometimes creates errors or presents factually inaccurate information, to be aware of these glitches and ai hallucinations that at times mix misinformation with facts in confusing hard to follow or understand ways, especially when coding, the include code verbosity that encodes misinformation into software frameworks also another kind of ai hallucination, or take Open Claw given full control of the user's computer then it helps them for a while, only to later on its own start deleting the contacts and files and data for no apparent reason. 

Battery Electric Yard Tool Explosion Damages the Face & Upper Body of My Former Coworker Sam

It was a blower, a leaf blower, powered by a Lithium Ion battery pack, that was 10 years old. Sam from a 3rd world country in southeast Asia where they use everything until it breaks, then fix it, and keep using it, because they do not have a lot of money to buy new things, so they instead fix what they have and keep it going as long as possible. 

He had no idea that the failure mode of NCA the kind in his battery electric blower, was venting with flame, and the battery pack was 56 volts, all those battery cells were stacked next to each other, causing thermal runaway like the Boeing Dreamliner Battery, causing heat and pressure to increasing inside the sealed housing, until the pressure and heat cause the plastic housing to expand, but in the warm moist air, that meant the contents of the battery catalyzed into an explosion that blew blue smoke and hot plastic shards into his face, neck, arms, torso, he had to be rushed to the hospital, and the burning tool dropped setting fire to his yard, which eventually reached a gas can and set fire to his house, causing a massive debacle that cost a fortune to fix, he eventually made a fully recovery. 

I encourage him to litigate against the manufacture, there are supposed to be thermal fuses inside a large battery pack like that, that under failure conditions disconnect the cells from each other, to prevent a thermal runaway, it also required by law to have a BMS or battery management computer, that is a safety device for lithium ion batteries to disconnect then if they go too low voltage or too high voltage or short, to prevent lithium battery fires, which go very wrong when the battery pack a 1600 lbs NCA unit with 7000 cells in a Telsa model whatever the F, I hate Tesla for its horrendous customer service, and many Tesla drivers drive like BMW drivers, like they own the road more than other people, that they deserve to be on the road more than you, arrogant dick heads, who drive Tesla like sociopathic weirdos, who care only about themselves and their money and no one and nothing else. 

My former coworker Geiger, was driving a fully loaded Tesla Model 3 at 7am on Inglewood Hill road in Redmond, on his way to work, with FSD activated, he was distracted reading, but had his hand on the wheel gently, all was fine, but suddenly it speed up and changed lanes into the oncoming lane, the car behind sped up block from reentering the lane of travel, now facing a car coming up the hill directly at it, it had no way out but to steer off the roadway, which ended up hitting the corner of a fence, made with a 4X8 pressure treated board, shoved up and back through the front window of the Model 3 and into the eye socket and brain of Mr. Geiger, who had to have 8+ reconstructive surgeries to fix his face, and made a mostly full recovery, incredibly. Elon Musk 10 years ago promised Tesla FSD would be Level 5 autonomy by 2026, yet even with the latest software its not more than L2.7 and only in best case situations, mostly on the freeway, mostly in fair weather. 

Can Essential Oils Be Medication? Over the counter without bending over for expensive prescription drugs?

Since antiquity traditional medical practices used pure or absolute essential oils of botanicals, most plants, flowers, seeds, stems, bark, root, extracts, oils, not always edible plants, notice you can eat the fruit of a tree but not its trunk, wood is not edible in the usual sense of food, it does contain a lot of fiber, and one guy on YouTube made a series of recipes of Rice Crispies, with increasing amounts of sawdust added, at up to 15% his testers could not detect the sawdust, and in industrial food processing this is known as adding bulk with cellulose. 

I am not selling Essential Oils or promoting their use or consumption, noting that almost all original Cologne for men or Perfume for women was made for mixes of essential oils with solvents like ethanol and water, base notes, high notes, middle notes, perfumery, olfactory sensation in the nasal bulb is the brains form of liquid gas chromatography, as molecules of things that smell strike the mucus covered nasal bulb, they have surface electrical activity and molecular shapes that plug into certain receptors producing electrical signals to your brain directly, thus smell one of the most intense of all senses, the smell of something can send someone back in their mind to where they first experienced that smell. 

Usually, an essential oil contains thousands of molecules of different substances made by plants. The root vegetable carrot for example, contains more than 40,000 different natural chemicals. Then using an essential oil has something in common with eating real edge foods, border perishables of a grocery store, natural, organic, eggs, meat, dairy, nuts, seeds, salad, spices, salts, fruits, berries, veggies, food that has been part of the human diet for centuries or millennia. Not stuff sold on a shelf in a colorful box like commercial cereals, or snacks sold in plastic or mylar bags like most industrial so called potatoes chips. Mylar is plastic chemically vapor coated with aluminum to block light and oxygen, to improve the shelf life so the industrial seed oils in the UPF do not become rancid as quickly, which reducing financial loses of global tobacco giants that manufacture most of the UPF items that Americans eat. 

Expensive Poison, Alcohol, Drinking Adult Beverage, Ethanol the Solvent Intoxicating, Spirits, Wine, Beer, a Giga Scale Business with Millions of Employees and Billions of Customers

 Evidence increasing that ethanol the active ingredient in beer, wine and spirits, toxic because it breaks down into a carcinogen called acrylaldehyde, which damages cells in the liver, kidneys & brain, its also an excitotoxin stimulant that degrades sleep architecture, so that when people wake up the next morning after heavily drinking the night prior, they feel tired and sore, they did not get enough quality sleep. While drinking alcohol causes people to fall asleep initially by activating GABA receptors in the brain, it's the dehydrogenase enzyme that breaks ethanol into acetaldehyde, that causes all the problems, as ethanol itself similar to sugar just after initial metabolism, which means ethanol also damages the cell mitochondria, the basis of many diseases associated with chronic alcoholism and unhealthy diet choices, notice the mirror between alcohol and processed foods with added sugars. 

If information becomes your Ecstasy, a novel beautiful visual, fantasy, escape, music, movies, gaming, shopping, pornography, banking, finances, investing, ai development, something for anyone, making the internet special and worth defending with Net Neutrality

You get to choose what you think, do, how to act, how you behave, but acting on every thought or impulse can go very wrong, become very painful or expensive, with a sexual impulse granted, you might get or give a viral STI or STD that become cancer long term. 

Intoxication Errors

Or, you might spend your money like a drunken fool, only to later sober up and realize the grave mistakes you made while intoxicated. Bar fights, DUI based vehicle accidents, arguments that split relationships and end marriages. You get the idea. 

Trusting Information Technology 

So, if glowing rectangles called Screens of all kinds, capture people's attention, then does that mean they are sold on looking a glowing rectangle screen?

I make fun of apple for using the exact same corner radius on every rounded rectangle from every version of Apple Watch or iPhone or MacBook or iMac, they all have the exact same corner radius rounding of every corner, incredibly. 

Rising Popularity of Drug Ecstasy or MDMA 

Taking MDMA at a line dancing club in Texas in the 1980s made MDMA very populate such that by the late 1990s near Seattle, at my high school, a popular Friday night activity was going to a Rave, dropping E pills, dancing like there is no tomorrow, rolling, feeling high, happy, warm and fuzzy, MDMA not just a stimulate, it's also an empathogen, something that engenders empathy for others during its stimulation, so you feel connected to the people you are dancing with, in ways that normally only a mother feels bonding with her newborn baby.

UPD Bliss Point

Chemical hijacking mirrored in bliss point engineering industrial ultra processed snack foods, using psychometric information about sensory processing, a secular Jew invented and commercialized bliss point engineering, the exact combination of sugar, salt & fat, usually bad fats also, too much Omega 6 & 9 cheap seed oil. 

Big Tobacco Make UPF Items 

The overwhelming majority of UPF made by global tobacco giants who moved into Food when smoking became less popular in America, after the 1994 ban against marketing cigarettes to children with anthropomorphic characters like Joe Camel or the Marlboro Man. 

Unhealthy American Diet 

That makes 70% of items sold at grocery stores and supermarkets in America similar to engineered cigarette additive chemicals in the mother liquid sprayed at the speed of sound into Fluff or Expanded tobacco, 1/3 of the composition of a modern cigarette, which also 1/3 tobacco, but the last 1/3 reclaim, or what is swept up from the factory floor, which includes rate poop and machine solvents and oils. 

No More Ad Revenue 

Yes, when I took LSD in 2017 for first and only time, it shattered my mind, I have never been the same. I am more neurotic, less afraid, bolder and more willing to say what I think, even if it costs me, I am determined to tell the truth, share my thoughts, I do not care which company or NGO I upset, and regularly get death threats as a result. It was like turning the mental awake volume nob all the way up, gain to the maximum, I could hear and see things that seemed impossible because of normal brain filtering turned off under the influence of LSD, lysergic acid diethylamide, invented and popularized by Albert Hoffman a Swiss chemical engineering working for a large pharmaceutical company, who was bright and still given technical talks at age 102, which he attributed to eating lots of raw egg, not microdosing LSD as an antidepressant.  

There are powerful special interests who hate me, in the literally sense of wanted to have me killed, and have let me know in a few obviously undeniable ways, including taking away AdSense from my blog, because I said something unpopular that upset and NGO associated with Google, or the parent company Alphabet inc. but of course they will not even tell me which of my more than 1000 posts are the one in question that violate the AdSense TOS or terms of service. 

MDMA stoke risk, it raise blood pressure, a lot, especially if your dancing hot and sweaty and dehydrated from not drinking enough water, and from heat stroke, it can trigger a heart attack in older adults, like meth its chemically Schedule 2 prescription drug Desxoyn, that is right, methamphetamine a prescription drug, amid so many youth deaths from Fentanyl induced respiratory depression who stopped breathing or choked to death on their own vomit. 

How do you know, what you know?

What you think you know probably missing a lot of it, reality, what is actually happening

Most people are unable to handle the truth about what is actually happening in the world

To summarize, the world is a deeply cringy unfair unreasonable evil place because of bad actors

Who becomes a bad actor? Someone who looks up to Lucifer as a role model, a deranged sicko, EVIL

Vladimir Putin and the War in the Ukraine, most people are aware of the War in the Ukraine, but they not away of how deranged and sick VP, the head of the Russian Federation the official title of Russia the country today. How many people have to do, so many Russian people have died that Putin releasing prisoners to fight in the Ukrainian war. 

Everyone likes to bash Jeff Epstein for being a pedophile, but under Sharia Law in Iran, adult men regularly marry little girls, as young as kindergarten age, and in many Islamic republics under Sharia law, gay, lesbian, and trans people are murdered in the street by police, or stoned to death, or dropped from tall buildings into the street. 

The police in Islamic Republics can walk up to anyone and shoot them in the head and claim it was because they were guilty of apostacy. In other words, Islam as practices under Sharia law, creates a country of organized normalized pedophilia. Unsurprising if you consider the life and times of Muhummad the founder of Islam, who was a psychopathic murdering pedophile rapist who enslaved peoples and engaged in genocide against other peoples. 

This just a drop of water in a world of oceans of true information, that is sick and disturbing. Many people do not even want to hear about such things; it would shatter their special snowflake mindset. 

That's How You Wave a Towel

 There is an inappropriate joke, where the title, is the punch line. For the sake of not spreading bad idea, and to live above reproach, I have to change my ways of thinking and not share that joke. My late adoptive father like to make people laugh, but frequently used adult jokes, and that did make most people chuckle, but sometimes they laughed because of how uncomfortable they felt hearing the crude inappropriate jokes. 

His wife, my adoptive mom, said "All jokes a putdown to someone" which my wife and I do not agree with. There are plenty of dad jokes, that little kids tell, based on naive word puns, like "Do the Polish people also Polish Furniture, noting that the Police also Police, verbs and nouns at the same time, while polishing a headlight to remove UV oxide damage to polycarbonate the clear plastic used on the outside of automotive headlight assembles, if your polish your headlight as a Polish person, then some Polish also Polish, noting they are spelled the same, but pronounced slightly differently. 

Or, did you notice that people drive on a park-way, while many others park on their Driveway, giving me and many others the impression that the British people who concocted the English the language, must have been drinking lots of gin for much of that development mixing German, Latin, Spanish, Italian and French into the English language, making spelling so confusing that every single letter of the alphabet silent in an some word in English. 

Many English Teachers and many ESL students find this YouTube video super funny, called 

"English is a Giant Meme" to make fun of all the stupid illogical inconsistences that drove me mad as a child student in English classes, much to the frustration of my English class teachers who did not find my identification of these inconsistences funny. 

There is a children book called P is for Pterodactyl, even though speaking that word sounds like a T noise, "tear a dac tal", do you get it, it's funny because the P is silent

Xylophone, "Zi Lo Phone", notice the Z noise even though it begins with an X, like X-ray 

Eating Dangerous, Oddly So, Choking, Food Poisoning, Basis of many Medical Disease Pathologies a combination of Diet Mistakes & Lack of Physical Activity

 Disease of civilization, the Standard American diet, what western diet did to the aboriginals in Australia, gave them all the same diseases and disorders affecting the white people, who upon resuming their tradition diet of eating bushmeat and seasonal fruits, veggies and nuts and seeds, reversed all the diseases associated with eating refined industrial western diet foods, known colloquially as UPF or Ultra Processed Foods, made from bland powders from GMO crops, they add in fake colors, fake flavors, fake texture, its all about sugar, salt and chemicals to hijack human senses.

So bad that up to 70% of what American's buy and eat from grocery stores and supermarkets in America, amounts to industrial ultra processed foods with any of many different questionable probably unhealthy and in some cases flat health harming ingredients like Hight Fructose GMO Corn Syrup, which we called Corn Garbage, or so many foods that are cooked, are cooked in rape seed oil, sold as Vegetable oil, when there are no vegetable involved in its production, instead GMO seeds

Seed oil health debacle, inflammation the basis of many diseases, how the imbalance of 20X too much Omega 6 and 9 creates chronic inflammation behind heart disease and many cancers. Chronic dehydration so common that there exists a kidney failure epidemic worldwide, not enough kidney dialysis machines to even handle a small fraction of the number of people with CKD chronic kidney disease. Who in many cases only drink caffeinate beverages, soda, or alcohol, or so deranged combination that does not include enough water for proper hydration, including in a diet of mostly UPF missing vitamins and essential nutrients, including critical electrolytes, potassium, calcium, phosphorus and sodium. 

Press the Start Button to Start Your Car Engine

 Do you remember starting a desktop computer in the 1990s, it power button, a momentary switch, now cars, trucks and SUV's feature smart keys and a start stop button, a momentary switch, different that a light switch which holds the position on or off, momentary switching only create a close circuit when your finger depresses the switch on a spring, which shorts the wires leading too it, sending a signal to a circuit controller or something electronic, which turns "it" on, but holding the switch down for many seconds can trigger a restart, shutdown or other function depending the device, noting your automobile a device or system of devices, often with more than 8000 parts made me dozens of companies, designed by people like you or me on computers. 

What happens if you hit the cars start button when driving? Usually dash or display blinks an error, to let you know that is not a valid input, but if you hold down the start stop button you can turn off the engine, but you will lose power steering and power breaking and this could cause an accident, so be cautioned not to do this, except as thought experiment related to buttons pressed to start computers. 

Fake ai generated content, NGO manipulated mainstream media, who can you trust anymore, at least on my blog your just reading my thoughts, hopefully dripping with authenticity

Since 2012 I have dumped blood sweat and tears into posting more than 1600 blog posts, after no longer using FaceBook, though I had to for a movement to setup my VR goggles, Meta quest 2 unit, because Meta is the parent company of FaceBook, and I do VR Kickboxing for fitness, with Les Mills Body Combat App, for more than 212 sessions, thought not for the last month because of moving, my body thrashed from moving, I have no extra energy for Total Body Punishment, and actually went from 182 lbs to 174 lbs because of all the physical exertion to move all that stuff to relocate, including boxing it off, loading it in and out of a moving truck, driving it, then unloading it into two different storage units, physically wrecked, but getting better slowly. 

When folding up a small trampoline my wife uses for bobble therapy known as health bouncing indoors, the spring-loaded metal frame popped suddenly striking my face ripping my left nostril open a splitting open my lip just below it, which bleed profusely, but because I had to quit my job in order to move, I also lost all my health insurance and other benefits, so I just grid and bear it, as painful as it was, prayed to God that it would heal correctly without stiches, and remarkable it seems to be healing normal without scaring, to my utter and sheer amazement, praise be to God for answering my prayers about it 

"Lord, please in Jesus's Holy name, let the injury on my face heal without medical intervention and not leave a scar, thank you Father God for Christ Jesus and for the Holy Spirit, thank you for the Bible and showing me a better way to live and think and for how to be a better husband to my wife, your Amazing, I adore you Lord, thank you so much for salvation and redemption, I know I am not worthy, If I can only be healed, in your holy name I pray, Amen. 

What Do You Really Need

 Other than air, water, food, housing, transportation, education, healthcare, electricity, internet, how have homes become so over crowded with things that people are willing to pay storage units to store thing they do you regularly make good use of, or own so many thing they can't even keep track of all of them. 

I am of course admitting that this has happened to me, that I rent a storage space and so does my wife, because we moved in with family to live out of a room, in rural location where they are operating an egg farm with chickens and there are less than 5,000 people nearby, a tiny town, a relocation that cost us thousands of dollars. 

Because moving all that stuff out of a giant overpriced and increasingly expensive storage unit where we came from, the suburbs near Seattle, Washington, where rent and housing are unaffordable, we had to give away hundreds of cars worth of things, sell vehicles, sell appliances, sell furniture, we literally streamlined and optimized away thousands of pounds of things to make moving easier, yet it was still heavy, a body burden, I am extensively injured from doing most of the labor myself. Moving sucks! I hate relocating, I need to streamline and simply more // 

Yet how do I do 3D printing and Laser Engraving as Hobbies without computers and stuff? The last Intel iMac does double duty as the Prusa Slicer and controller of the Prius Mini, and controls the XTOOL F1 dual laser engraver including its path design software, Light Bridge. I have so many hobbies, not going to list them all, but they all require special gear, that takes up space, which requires other gear. To suggest that I am a complicated person and understatement, I am autistic savant with interests in more than 100 different complex topics. 

Liquid Cooled, Air Cooled, Are you driving a Supercar to the Grocery Store with an overpowered computer?

How many cores, how powerful a GPU, how much RAM, how much computer do you need to browse the web, watch a YouTube video, noting even older smart TV with weak android computer inside can stream YouTube videos at 4K easily.

Apple does not even put a cooling fan in the MacBook Neo or Air. Why would they, that introduces "Noise" "Dust Intake" and Energy Consumption

With apple silicon, power efficiency reached entirely new levels of incredible, reducing the need for cooling fans, noting the unified memory architecture, hardware and software designed together, that a MacBook Air or similar fan-less machine does not require a cooling fan because its CPU so power efficient, that passive heat transfer to the unibody machined aluminum housing sufficient under typical domestic computer used loads to cool the M whatever version without a fan. 

TDP thermal dissipation profile, how many watts is the "Chip"

Can a heat-sink without a fan cool the chip effectively?

If the chip getting hot, can throttling it cool it down effectively?

Not to draw an automotive comparison, but automobiles went from air cooled carburetors engines to liquid cooled fuel injected engines

There exists a group of zealots that overclock chips by liquid nitrogen cooling them in elaborate setups to prevent condensation dripping unto shorting out the mainboard or electronics

Similar zealots liquid cool windows intel Nvidia gaming machines or High Performance Workstations, noting that vapor chamber cooling and heat pipes with refrigerant gas to liquids inside have become a novel way to cool smartphones, gaming consoles and some laptops and tablets. 

Most desktop computers still feature a large CPU & GPU heat sink made of machined aluminum into which brushless motor fans push air into for cooling, or are air cooled, not liquid cooled. 

MacOS 26.5 Tahoe notice name jumped from 15.7.7 Long Term Updated Version for Older Mac Models

No one can say for sure if you should make the jump to Tahoe macOS, but officially if your apple hardware has M2 or M3 or M4 or M5 apple silicon, then it seems to work, especially on the newest versions that have better performance. If your on a fan-less MacBook Air, stick to 15.7.7 Sequoia until more of the bugs have been polished to magical Liquid Glass optimization

Understanding, Why Apple bases its OS's on UNIX

Apple's iOS and macOS are based on UNIX that Gorilla of industrial computers before Linux or Windows from Microsoft. UNIX was designed for security, stability, reliability, robustness, fault tolerance, on IBM mainframe machines so well made in 1960's that some have been used continually since then and continue working in middle 2026, a testament to the American Made Computers from the Golden Era of modern American history, 1948 to 1968, when the US dollar was strong, gold was cheap, most all of anything Americans needed was still be made in America. 

Golden Age of American Economic Miracles 

Electronics and aircraft and vehicles and appliances were designed to be easy to fix, parts available for repairs, user manuals in regular English written by other Americans easy to follow step by step instructions, a bygone era of economic miracles one after the other for decades of continual development, but it was not all roses and sunshine. Teflon hailed as a non-stock miracle in cookware, it turned out that making things with PFOS and PFOA then dumping the waste created in a river created a debacle of cancers and other disease from exposure to these industrial poisonous toxic substances. 

UNIX Industrially Polished to Absolution 

Why did Apple bake UNIX into its operating systems, power efficiency, robustness, intrinsically more secure layers of leveled permissions, like nested sandboxes to prevent hacking or viral attacks, in essence more secure, higher performance on weaker hardware, UNIX was tuned and optimized to the moon for enterprise when computers we bigger that cars and cost millions of dollars, such that only large universities and large corporations had computers. 

Internet-of-Things

It took until the Win-tel duopoly between Intel and Microsoft to bring PC's home to peoples houses, and yet other revolutions in information technology to put the Internet in peoples hands and pockets with smartphones, and with high speed and wifi at home, the internet has become a utility like water, natural gas, gasoline or electricity itself, hard to imagine anyone not having high speed internet access anymore. 

Wifi and High Speed Internet became Normal 

Do you mind sharing your wifi password with my so I can connect my smartphone to save mobile data, and if you take into account an Apple Watch or Smart Speaker with Alex, we really do live with information furniture, and just on the horizon smart shoes, smart pants, smart shirts, with fabric wires, smaller power efficient chips, we are going to see solar charging and movement energy capture, your jacket will be able to trickle charge your smart watch and smartphone, with inductive charging built into the pockets :) 

Why is Tim Cook leaving Apple

Ask him, that's his personal choice, he is not 20 years old anymore, maybe he wants to focus on other areas of life, other than making Apple one of the post profitable companies in the world.

We can't answer for him or anyone else, let them pick their own way and you do the same. We as people do not know enough to tell someone else the best way to live, they have to find that for themselves on their path through life. 

Take my unique angle where I believe family the most important topic, because everyone alive has a natural female mother, a woman who gave birth to them one way or the other. Oh how I view faith in God as the most important topic because it explains why family the other most important topic. 

Has Internet Made People Less Intelligent?

Are smartphones making people less smart?

At some level, everyone wants to be engaged, entertained, sleep, eat, have water or fluid to drink, in essence all throughout history basic human needs have not changed that much, but how we fulfill those needs with technology today very different, and we need to remember that cell phones were designed to connect people more in novel ways, not cause people to become lonely in crowded room. Today we notice there are more people with smartphones, yet overall more people feel isolated, not part of a community, no sense of social belonging to group, so how can technology meant to connect people more end up causing people to connect less? Good question, I think it can take culture more than 20 years to adapt new technology into the sock drawer, in the fine grain details of the bathroom and kitchen, the front lawn, the garden, the vehicles. 

Energy Efficiency, Fuel Economy, Water Saving, Droughts & Flooding, Climate Change Accelerating

Compute per watt of electrical energy, how much data moves per watt of power, or kWh

Mass of Fuel per Mass Moved at Given Speeds, Scientific Facts 

Fuel economy of a vehicle, how much fuel used per unit of mass moved at speeds, not a may vary, what does the real world www.fuelly.com data evidence actually shows real world fuel economies of real people driving real models in real world conditions, that data available to anyone including the EPA and people making MORONI stickers for automobiles sold in America. Remove head from anus, wake up, ding dong

Fuel Prices are Hurting Families in USA 

If Americans have to pay 6 dollars per gallon for gasoline, then they deserve to understand how a Toyota Prius II in 2004 was able to get 46 MPG on regular pump gas without any plug-in charging, or how Kawasaki sells a Hybrid Motorcycle that almost no one has ever heard of, since 2024, that gets double the fuel economy, and has faster 0-30 mph than a liter bike. 

Misinformation about New Vehicles

Why are vehicles manufacturers not required to disclose scientific factual evidence about the total lifetime costs of operating their vehicle, cost per mile or kilometer, why do they not give sound reasonable factual information

EPA can't figure this out, they give a range, what the hell does that mean?

When a morbidly obese 500lb American drives the same car as me at 174 lbs, they get lower fuel economy if be we both drive the exact same vehicle year make and model on exactly the same routes and distances, their addition body mass makes the engine use more fuel, or makes the motor consumer more power form the batteries of a EV. On an airplane with hundreds of passengers, if everyone very obese, the aircraft will consume more fuel and release more emissions WTF

Japan's Metabolic Law 

Why is Japan the only country with a metabolic law, what is wrong with other governments that do not enforce rational sane diet and food ideas, with penalty for excess, for smoking or alcohol consumption or excess sugar consumption, freedom my ass when it drives up everyone else's healthcare costs, that is totally unfair and unreasonable on many levels. 

Environmental Conservation, Defending Real Food from Industrial GMO UPF Items

Industrialization + 9 billion people = Ecological Disasters, Species Going Extinct Faster, Cancers

GMO with no label, insecticide, fungicide, pesticides, any of 10,000 different chemically engineered food additives created by global tobacco giants who moved into UPF making foods as cigarettes became less popular after the 94 ban on marketing to children, noting that nearly all junk, snack, fast, ultra processed foods are marketed to children through smartphone and tablet games that have anthropomorphic characters of the junk foods, free apps, fun to play games, to indoctrinate branding into the young child's mind, so as teens or adults the seek out and buy and consume any of more than 100,000 UPF items linked to 32 disease pathologies with high quality scientific evidence beyond refute. 

Pollution Mostly Avoidable if Greedy Sociopath Executives Installed Industrial Emissions Controls 

No rational sane actor or anyone in public defending the health harms of a diet of mostly industrial ultra processed foods, almost no real food, no home cooked food, all artificially flavored, artificially colored, bliss point engineering, addictive, sugar fat salt in the exact proportions to highjack the brain of unsuspecting minors eating this junk that is sold in colorful boxes, colorful plastic bags, colorful mylar bags, tubes, snacks, candy, novelties', fast food, industrial rape seed oil sold as vegetable oil the worst cardiovascular damaging thing in the food chain of humans aside from hydrogenated cottonseed oil from GMO crops treated with 56 different pest control chemicals, leaving reside in Crisco and similar seed oils, the worst for your health, trans fats and high fructose GMO corn syrup, added to nearly all soda pop brands. 

Chemical Food Additives are Sickening Almost Everyone Worldwide 

This is no democrat vs republican, it is about all people on Earth, and nature, and all wildlife, and all agriculture, all gardening, all food, all drinks, air and water pollution, heavy metals from bullets and tire weights that fling off after the adhesive fails, billions of chucks of brain damaging lead Pb metal, tire tread erosion leading source of microplastic emissions, PFOA and PFOS water pollution linked to cancers, Asbestos in baby power bad J&J, nuclear weapons testing and coal power emissions exposing all people to heavy toxic metals and dangerous deadly cancer causing isotopes and radioactive elements, + acid rain forming oxides of nitrogen and sulfur and super fine particulate matter that lodges deep into the lungs of even nonsmokers some of whom get COPD from breathing PM 2.5 from industrial emissions

Healthcare Costs Rising & No End in Sight for Costs Increasingly Expensive 

FUBAR, global healthcare debacles of every kind, expensive and increasing cost of treating all those diseases, not affordable, driving public and private healthcare system dry of money, fiat currency, global debt debacle of $400 trillion, along with currency inflation, shrinking middle class, insourcing, outsourcing, homelessness, housing crises, novel online crime and fraud and scams increasing, malware, computer viruses, ransomware, regular people getting hit with mail theft, text and email scams, fishing websites, a layered mess of Fuck You from 12+ different directions at the same time, and as if law and order existed, amid DSHS fraud from illegal Somalian refuges in Minnesota.
