The numpad really was a huge usability improvement, especially once computers became common for accounting, data entry, and office work. It’s interesting how the meaning of “alphanumeric” has expanded too, as keyboards now need to accommodate a much wider range of symbols and characters. On a related note, buy Telegram accounts on AccsMarket can be useful for people managing different online communities or projects where communication and account organization matter.

If EROI is going down across all energy platforms,  What in fact are they smoking, when they say, "We're going to GROW" out of the debt crisis.

Grow,  with WHAT.

We'd need a "Sudden" invention which borders on reverse entropy energy generation.

Tp4 can understand the enthusiasm for AI,  but if it was sentient enough to invent such a thing, it's sentient enough to cut humans out of the deal.

Transhumanism is again, not what you've imagined,  there is no YOU in that movie,  the AI is the transhuman, there wouldn't be any other human,  just the AI, the 1 blob.

Tp4 is ok with that, ideologically,  but the incompetence in the ep5ti class and their illogical fantasies is disasterous.

AI productivity is a pipe dream.

ROBOTS DO EVERYTHING.    with unlimited energy, sure.

But a ROBOT is highly power inefficient.

Human beings do all that they do on 40watts / hr.    A modern playstation is 200-300watts.


EVERYTHING our economy "purports" to do, comes at a power budget.  It can not escape physics.

The most irrational aspect is the PRICE of OIL. If a barrel of oil is worth 5 years of HUMAN physical Labor,  WHY IS IT $60, or $100, or $200, or $10,000.

Why is it not $1,000,000.   IN FACT,  that SHOULD BE the price of oil.

So what is happening is,  the allocation structure at the top,  decides simply to maximize BURN RATE. 

The Money structure in GDP, is that rate. 

It's not a rate of Wealth Generation or Wealth Storage.   GDP is the BURN RATE of FUEL.


This coupled with the fact that there IS NO GREEN ENERGY,  all the machinery in solar/wind are simply conduits made from AND to FOSSIL FUELS,   Coal, Oil, Gas, Coal, Oil, Gas.


Nature cracked the code,  it is beyond anything else, the most POWER EFFICIENT,   the natural systems does all that it does @ EXTREMELY low wattage, ALMOST no waste heat.

How much waste heat does a ROBOT produce, or an electric car, electric bus, electric tooth brush.


This is not to be against mechanization,  But one must understand the LIMITS of What It Can Do, and the VERY FINITE Budget of energy available in the Time-Span of Civilization.

Nature can operate in Geological-Time,   Human Civilization CAN NOT.

The question now is,  if man eats curry, every day, for 30 days,  will he die.

In the same gravity as neil armstrong,  TP4 will brave this expansive unknown, for science, love and world peace.

I know that you said that you are not a fan of novelties.

But it looks like you have a text-only enter novelties?

That will probably clash with the icon mods.

Perhaps those will show mini turtles doing ninja moves with their respective weapons?

silly question, why no alps shorts space bar?
there are alice support in DCS Pingmaster. is the short space bar mold not open to use?
but beside that, nice color!

I’m sure it’s open to use but I’ve only gotten maybe 5 people ask for small bars. Not enough to justify adding that support, still taking feedback though.

Point is,  we should go take out $20m loan, and go be slumlords.

Heck you can even do it in the US.

When vkrin went through its inflation crisis, 

A family may have had enough currency to buy a house and some cars. 

After the crisis,  that money was enough to buy a month worth of groceries.


THE POINT IS,   When everyone went to "Press" the sell button, IT DIDN'T WORK.

The bank locked,   allocated,   and you're left with what you're left with.


Remember guys,  MONEY IS NOT REAL.   You've stored NOTHING but your fat-ass and that 1 sac of moldy potatoes.

Even your HOUSE, you DO NOT OWN, because it's not defensible, and you must pay property tax.


The "Sovereign Wealth" section isn't any better,  All majors are shedding exposure right now. 

But it's fundamentally irrelevant as simply, there is LESS STUFF that you could buy (with any-amount of money).



Groceries have gone up easily 100-200% already.    You tell me what the real inflation is.
