That doesn't make sense. "Finally getting fed up" implies some form of outrage. We have multiple things happening that no one seems to Care about, like META pushing ID-to-be-online laws so that they can harvest even more information about you.

And, no. There are many things even private companies can not and should not do. Visa controlling what you are allowed to purchase comes to mind.

Unless fraud has happened, no company should interfere in people's business. And if fraud happened, the company should publicly turn it over to law enforcement.

Why has corporate and government espionage and outright interference with people accelerated the last four years?

DEF does no such thing. SCR lowers fuel economy, power, and needs constant repair because urea corrodes anything that isn't plastic (sensors, injectors, pumps, seals, dpfs, etc). The amount spent on this regulatory idiocy is huge.

The NOx reduction it provides as a benefit is based on a theoretical model. The model goes like this: "NOx and ozone cause respiratory problems in mice when they are given exaggerated doses, assuming no safe dose and a linear response means not having it will keep you healthy and save billions in healthcare"

We have had mandatory SCR for about 15 years, now. Its 'estimated' that billions of healthcare cost have been saved based on the model - but there is no actual proof. They've never gone back and used proper ratios of exposure on mice. Its just assumed, by the model's math, that its helping in enough dollars to offset the cost.

I would offer that what you are claiming as 'making diesel tolerable' is, in fact, the DPF, which traps soot and other particulates and not the SCR.

I appreciate the material. I really do. But I would recommend you don't follow these instructions. I've seen what happens when you overcharge lead acid batteries.

"The battery is forced into believing no work has occurred"

"The electrolyte in the battery goes wild and the ions race backwards, giving off hydrogen and oxygen gas"

The battery is now a believer and believes itself so much that it overcharges itself into electrolysis when connected to a motor that's connected to a generator.

All of this is preceded by the book warning you that you have to 'pulse the correct frequency' or the battery 'may explode'. Yes, because this isn't free energy, its just hooking your car's alternator up to a 6v marine battery to charge it and then claiming that when it manages to not detonate, its because the inanimate object believes that no work has been done, oh and ignore those highly reactive off-gasses.

The research paper is interesting, but references a paper I can't find talking about electrical scalers that are "backwards flowing" and a counter-field that is "time-reversed". While I can't check the math because I can't find that source paper, I'm pretty sure that forward flow and normal-time exploitation are all we can do at this particular chrono-juncture, and that is a probably the actual eason why it has " been ignored" for over a century.

That was my point. Everyone hand waves that there was a lie. I'm sold. We've been lied to about everything. But.....What's the truth?

No found details, schematics, tests, nothing. Not even any research into proximate methodology that might yield something in another 80 years.

But you CAN setup a device to power your house, your car, your smart phone for free.

Point me to how. Just once. One esoteric free energy claim that has a solid backing that I can build in my garage and get free energy straight into anything, even a Baghdad battery.

This isnt a popular take, but: Harness. It.

I have seen these sorts of ruminations for decades.

Tesla "used" it. But no one, ever, anywhere else, can figure it out?

40 years of the internet, the first 20 of it wild and free and no one posted plans to harness the electric universe in some small way? The rise of Tesla cars that could run on free energy without the scale of battery it uses now didn't excite anyone? A seemingly perpetual motion machine that isn't plugged in? Any thing?

I am not saying we have not been lied to about everything, but this isn't medicine where you will kill people if you are wrong (except maybe yourself....don't lick the red and black while wiring it up) - you could build something to utilize this power that is supposed to exist and then share it to everyone and one-up those evil electric companies. Right now. Do it.

FFS, this is the original "just two more weeks".

Some states have. I have never gone down that rabbit hole, so I don't know what kind of conversion there has been.

But also in terms of interoperability, if you are 'on the list' in one state and you move to a state where you'd be ineligible, you stay on the new state's registry. I only know this because I hired that guy in a place that was bordered by other states and suggested he looked up the laws in other states. He already had. I felt bad for him.

I hired a guy who was convicted of statutory rape. Him and his high school girl friend were discovered on his 18th birthday by her dad. She was 17.

The law said he was an adult and she was a minor, therefore it was a sex crime that put him on the registry.

Best part is, he married her and was married to her some 12 or so years after the incident with two kids.

He had the whole case file and would hand it over to potential employers because it was apparently hard to get his foot in the door most places.

First, what was he put on the registry for? (There are many people on the registry for reasons that are stupid so that the registry's usefulness is diluted)

Second, my question and knowing he was on the registry is a single lookup. Maybe plus an official records request if he's on it for a stupid reason.

So, why didn't anyone know?

If the US were to annex Canada, I'm pretty sure each region would just become a state. It wouldn't just be state 51, it would be states 51 through 61, maybe 64 but I don't remember from the old school times what those territories are managed like (just big provinces or just left unmanaged because three goats and a weird dude lives there?)

These are happening because of our support of private property. Unfortunately, to be secure in your property means that assholes are secure in theirs. If they purchased the land, PAY FOR THE UTILITIES, and want to build a data center, therr should be little we can do until it impedes our property.

Its like free speech. Freedoms only matter when assholes get involved and no body likes them.

I made no assumptions, i stated it as it is. A claim was made that reviews have been done. Where are those reviews?

Faith is for Jesus, not random people who scream "proof" into the wind.

1
Ausernamegoeshere 1 point ago +1 / -0

Yes, but thats not the result of the stated litany of professionals that have made a report. If I have to "go find it myself" I will come out with different figures.

So I have a claim with statistical results and no reviewability into that claim - we can't check the methods, the data that they used, nothing.

Again.

Ausernamegoeshere 3 points ago +3 / -0

It's all been mapped. So WHERE IS THE DATA.

Over and over and over again, random people say they have it, statisticians have made a report. Where is it? Why hasn't it been spread to the winds? Why is each declaration not reviewavle?

This is a hard narrative push the last week or two.

They are having the uniparty assets that pretended to be MAGA turn neocon to try and split the people that followed them. But those assets were a flame to the liberal lite moths who dont like the Ds but also dont like the Rs and are distrustful of MAGA. So they follow the people that promise results ("I REVEAL TOMORROW HOW SNICKERS ARE IMPLANTING THOUGHTS IN YOUR TEETH!"), and get strung along never seeing the results that are promised and then, as these followers peter out in energy - they get rug-pulled.

They weren't "part of maga" except they followed Candace Owen or a dozen others who kept telling people they were totally part of MAGA - but they all tepidly hate on israel until push comes to shove and then they hail Israel and only speak against Ukraine in terms of "forrreverrrr warrrrs" - never in truthful terms re:NATOs antagonism of Russia for a decade.

This the classic "own both sides" gambit that our leaders play, and this is the hard-core wall punch attempt to jackhammer themselves back to power.

Why now?

Because if Israel loses Iran - the funding arm for most terrorists - they can no longer get "absolute victim" status and be paid handsomely by the world for all of their "hardship". They lose money in the short run and lose control in the long run.

So now, they are going to burn everything they have to so they can climb back on the saddle.

I vote to return health insurance to what insurance really is - catastrophic coverage for when you need 50,000 dollars of care to replace your kidney or something.

You chose the level of catastrophe you are willing to cover when something goes wrong (e.g. 1,000 per treatment? 10,000? 250,000? Etc) and pay appropriately.

All the rest of the crap (e.g. "free" "preventive care") isnt insurance, its single payer nonsense.

This is why all medicine needs to be ripped away from insurance and government decision makers.

ALL medical procedures should be the decision of the patient and the doctors either follow that decision or transfer out of care without pay.

But, of course, both sides want to advance government control over people's healthcare - just in different ways.

The OBBB sending the deficit up is not related to DOGE.

The DoGE cuts to the workforce were for mostly replicated functionality. Did the new hires slot into the missing positions, absent judgements of reinstatement? No.

Further, the estimates for "rehiring" and "lost productivity" are trying desperately to make DOGE look bad by assuming that all or almost all positions are critically vital to the government - just like news reports of 'long lines' at social security offices, despite the fact that very few front kine workers were cut, it was mostly administrative back end personnel that got axed from social security. And, those same complaints have been in place for years, at one office for over a decade.

Then you take Blumenthal's "investigation" which reports that of the 27 billion in "waste" 14.8 billion was the offers of retirement that paid workers out to take the resignations and a further 6.1b for separation that were forced. That's the opposite of "waste". Why did he include those numbers? Because the rest of the effects he could cite somewhat honestly were unnoticeable. Even the total 27 billion if you assume its 100% correct is barely a footnote to a government that spends $5t a year unaccountably.
