Amid explosive demand, America is running out of power

It's goading him, but the root greed to be dictator of the US of A has been in him, all along.
There was an article, somewhere, about "the guardrails have come off", about the people who used to surround him, who mitigated his absolute-greed for absolute-authority-over-all-others, but they've all left.
It was there, all along.
IF JBOD, && Linux, THEN yes you can know, through SMARTTOOLS, or something like that..
However, I can't imagine how you'd get 2 separate PCIe
( presuming NVMe devices ..
.. no, this thing must be presuming SATA, NOT NVMe ..
even in SATA, there's no bifurcator for SATA, I don't think:
SAS has expanders, which can take a single SAS channel & attach something like 128 SAS devices onto it,
PCIe has some kind of equivalent, and there is a PCIe card which crams loads of NVMe's into it, out in the last year, but SATA??
Hmm... )
shrug
I've never heard of this, & I'm Canadian.
I imagine out east, in the Maritimes, they'd have to put marker-poles on the things, because they sometimes get 5' of snow in a single onslaught, but ..
.. it simply isn't something I'd ever heard-of.
Our fire-departments deal with the snow & ice every ( normal, not now ) winter.
shrug
Shoddy use of them is normal, that is true.
Don't toss-out the baby, with the bath water, tho, eh?
Training people in critical-thinking, & having quality standards for doing surveys, would help our world more, than would removing a method of discovery.

I tried opening this post in a web browser, & it tried downloading a binary onto my system??
When I tried reloading the page, instead of blank-page with some kind of underhanded downloading, it showed the post..
Not cool, but I've no idea who, or what, caused whatever it is that hit my browser, when I tried getting it to open this post.
That's your unconscious-mind playing games with your life, same as mine does with mine.
It's essentially a variant of "addiction", aka Kahneman1 mind ( imprint-reaction mind ) trying to make your life obey its imprint-reaction programming.
Read both Kahneman's "Thinking Fast & Slow", in order to understand the pseudo-reasoning that Kahneman1 mind ( he calls it System-1, but that presumes his work's context, which normal-discussions don't presume ), and how its mission is undermining correct-reasoning ( Kahneman2 mind ).
AND read Kegan & Lahey's "Immunity to Change", about our unconscious-mind's mechanism that fights off growing-up, & how to intelligently counter its sabotaging of our lives.
It's essentially a kind of "demagnitization" that you need to do, of your unconscious, but if you don't systematically use real leverage, you're not going to win.
Every time I see an image of a cute, intelligent, driven, wonderfully diffierent-from-me woman, I'm wanting to be wrapping our lives together, but..
.. relationship depends on having common core-identity.
Some people have such alien/different core-identity, due to life-experience, that that potential got broken.
You can't make an intact window out of random shards of broken glass, right?
They're separate, and they don't become unitary, the way molten glass does, just because you put them adjacent to each-other, right?
Some people have been too changed by experience, to be able to value what normal-identity values.
My life-mission is to remove my Soul/Continuum/CellOfGod/ChildOfAllgod/ParticleOfBrahmanFieldOfOriginalAwareness from Universe-containment/entrapment, so that no more of this reincarnation abuse/bullshit contains future-lives that it has.
Aversion-therapy was successful, in other words..
How could any woman want what I want?
That's nonsensical.
You can't have the savage intensity of aversion to "remaining in world, living in relationships, gently earning human meaning" that I have, & somehow be "in" relationship with woman who is wired into needing that kind of meaning..
Not only is it idiocy, it's abuse ( it would be abuse for me to be in-relationship with anyone, given my ripping-Soul-from-endless-stream-of-Universes NEED in me, that my core is ).
So, while your reason is different from mine, we're both fighting-against the "magnetization" of our unconscious-minds & our Kahneman1 programmed imprint-reaction/instinct minds.
- understanding { the books, one's own unconscious, experience-induced-understanding of studying one's unconscious, as it sabotages one's life, in order to protect its dominion over our Eternity, through hobbling our strategy/intent }
- finding the deliberate & strategic means of communicating with our unconscious, using techniques given in those books
- keep earning the demagnitizing of our unconscious-minds, our Kahneman1 minds, until each of us wins ( any addiction, it's the same rules, whether addiction-to-relationship, or addiction-to-dysfunction, or addiction-to-chemical, or addiction-to-class-status, or addiction-to-money, ANY addiction is using these mechanisms, so the method for dismantling them is, strategically, the same )
- endure the life-scale process ( no point in pretending that one's unconscious-mind can be force-rewired in mere-months: it took decades for our unconscious to form, and it absorbed many-decades of culturally-accumulated inertia in the early years, it's going to be a slog, and only enduring-persisting can work, and the life-accomplishing can be worth it, whatever it is that one is working on earning ).
and that's it.
No "magic bullet", no "magic pill", just competenly-demagnitizing one's unconscious-ignorance from one's life, and making one's life hold to a non-default "river" path.

Sometimes..
But sometimes one is just being gaslit.
It's a spectrum, not a binary-decision.
There is some truth in what you said.
_ /\ _
It will transform:
The house-of-cards "economy" cannot continue "functioning" forever..
WHEN it collapses, it'll gut the Dems.
IF it happens early-enough before the 2024-election,
THEN the Republicans win 2024, on the backlash vote.
It will be the Sycophants of Trump, only, then.
I don't consider it probable that the house-of-cards will continue pretending to be "whole"/functional past August, at the latest.
China was able to suspend trading on The Evergrande Group for 17 months, which I hadn't forseen, but eventually it returned to trading, & lost .. was it 99% of its value, in a few hours?
Citadel+BCG have a very profitable naked-shorting-and-"strategic-management-consulting" racket going, which they used to destroy Sears, to the best of my knowledge, & some 25-ish other major-corporations..
You can see in "The Reverse Cramer Index" that mainstream-media's systematically pushing the masses to be suckers used/economically-obliterated for the profit of the few ( Cramer's a msm pusher, doing the exact opposite of what he's recommending is systematically profitable.
That should result in criminal ( possibly racketeering ) charges against whomever Cramer's behind-the-scenes pushers are, but .. not in this world .. not ever, in this world, would evidence-of-market-manipulation-on-such-scale be forced to be accountable )
Anyways, I expect, and could be wrong, that economic-collapse will happen before the 2024-election, and that backlash will gut the leverage of the left, and that US Civil War Part2 will begin within 3-ish years of the Republicans making Trump, whether legal to be so or not, president, and Trump will get to be GEOTUS, dictator of the US, presiding over its conversion-into-carrion.
No-one believes that extreme difference-from-their-belief-nature could be, until it's too late.
That is why so many go along with murderers who get them to a "secondary crime scene": they're assuming they'll be able to socialize/schmooze their way out, then...
but the secondary-crime-scene is the least survivable place in the world.
The US's population is about to be relocated to their own secondary-crime-scene, due to their own naiveness, and the consequences will be exactly-typical of such situations.
Simply sit back & watch it unfold:
it's happening at world-geopolitics pace, not at individual-this-week pace, so it takes awhile.
No point in claiming that 2024-election's won by either side, until the actual-votes are in, is there?
I bet the Trumpites win, and have been betting so since Covid began, as humankind's unconscious wants its planet-destroying TANTRUM, and Trump is simply a means of humankind's unconscious to enact-history/"mythological-significance".
There is a book "Games People Play", and another "Scripts People Live", which both identify unconscious mechanisms that we enact, unwittingly letting scripts live our lives for us .. this is similar, but is at the whole-species scale.
Read those 2 books, then try seeing the whole-planet-scale, & see how such-mechanisms are also existing at the vast scale.
My bet is, unfortunately, likely to win.
Fallacies abound:
Too-coarse-granularity, AND presuming that the established "due process" is inherently the only method of deciding,
and both those are bogus.
Serial-murderers need terminating, not for punishment, but to remove them.
Theres apparently a guy in Scandinavia who is let out every ?year? or ?few years?, and murders another, ..
.. and the Scandinavian authorities won't accept that that is his actual-nature, so they keep allowing him to do this, all to protect their denial that diversity-of-human-nature could possibly violate their young-adult style naiveness..
To me, the authorities who ignore/deny evidence, in order to protect making-believing, are accessories to the murders he's committed since his 1st conviction.
Cultural-ideology is worth much more than the lives of those who he is allowed to murder, tho, obviously..
: \
Falsely presuming that the established "due process" which produces false-convictions is the ONLY due-process possible, is another fallacy in this category of argument.
( both of these fallacies have been going strong among the left for decades, exactly as the right also has their "religious" issues/fallacies )
Read "The Elements of Journalism", as ALL citizens who have any authority to vote, should!
It identifies the conflict-of-interest in establishment-prosecution:
Once prosecuring-authority, whether police or state-prosecutor, has decided that someone is guilty, then they ignore evidence contradicting that.
( read Kahneman's "Thinking Fast & Slow", the single most-important psychology book in our whole world, right now, to understand that this is inevitable, as our underlying mental-mechanism makes it impossible to displace with proper correctness/integrity )
They identify a case where journalism-students were sicced on a death-row case, to discover that the police HAD THE CONFESSION OF THE GUY WHO ACTUALLY COMMITTED THE MURDER, AND WERE IGNORING IT.
Obviously, the standard for locking a life away MUST be appropriate to that act, and the standard for executing a life MUST be higher, but of course this debate's established-form never allows such points to be included in the discussion, does it?
Further, if you've got "prosecution" and "defense", and NEITHER of them has loyalty to Justice, only to their-victory,
AND the judge is supposed to passively pick between whatever is presented in court,
THEN you are not honoring, serving, or even loyal to, Justice.
You need an active advocate for Justice, who is categorically independent of both prosecution & defense, and therefore who isn't in conflict-of-interest.
The journalism-students in that school-of-journalism who take-up cases of possible-wrongful-conviction, mentioned in
( the edition I read, years ago, & I hope it's still mentioned in the 4th edition, which is what I think the current version is )
"The Elements of Journalism" ARE DOING EXACTLY WHAT IS REQUIRED TO PREVENT MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE.
That needs to become a standard part of EVERY criminal-case.
Have an advocate for Justice, independent of both "prosecution" and of "defense", as they cannot be independent-of-their-faction enough to stand truly with Justice.
Justice requires a representative in court: an advocate, of its own.
So, throw-away the ideological-fixation of "punishment", & accept, objectively, that some require removal, permanently.
Many won't tolerate that, because of their ideology/religion..
shrug
AND there needs to be an advocate for Justice, not just for the 2 special-interest-groups/factions "prosecution" and "defense",
AND conviction-for-execution needs to be 3 times out of 4, so at-least 3 trials, with different judges, in order to remove the prejudice/bias of individual-judges, from having effect.
Once you've got all those alterations in-place, then you are talking about a situation which neither left nor right have permitted to be even discussed.
Then you've got a situation where it isn't obliteration-of-life-to-"punish",
rather, it is simply that there are a few who are serial-murderers, and they aren't going to change, and subsidizing them, bankrupting more taxpayer-lives, is punishing/helping-destroy some taxpayer lives, and terminating those serial-murderers terminates their murdering-career.
There ARE consequences of countries going bankrupt ..
( both morally-bankrupt & fiscally-bankrupt, and they tend to go together: the moneyarchists use national-bankruptcy, of both kinds, as a means of fleecing the country, while gutting it ),
.. and responsible authority has absolute obligation to prevent that from enacting-itself.
Further, related, it is morally-criminal that the state is exempted from paying damages to all who are proven to have been wrongly-convicted.
In my eyes: you cannot damage a life as dishonest/false emprisonment does, and pretend you aren't liable for reparations.
Not in integrity's eyes, anyways.
Since this view isn't obeying either the left's lobby, or the right's, feel free to downvote it to hell, in order to prove that these points ought not be seen, or even identified..
That's perfectly normal, and must be accepted, in any "majority rule, minority overruled" "democracy", right?
( my bitterness is mine, & is fine with me, so don't bother indulging in condescending "pity".
I'd rather have intellectual-integrity, than be "liked" )

Different religions represent fundamental-truths in different forms/ways.
Thoth was a hominid-shaped form for karma.
Thoth had 2 demands of the lives that Thoth judged:
- you used your human-life honestly/intensely, so you didn't just waste it coasting-by
- your heart be lighter than a feather, aka you earned/evolved honesty & integrity.
AwakeSoulism/Buddhism did-away with the hominid/animal forms, representing the fundamental-forces/principles, but they kept the same fundamental-forces/principles.
- There is no point in coasting through human-life, because all the other kinds-of-lives a Soul/ChildOfGod/CellOfGod/Continuum/ParticleOfBrahmanFieldOfFundamentalAwareness .. are lacking in the perfect intersection between
- suffering inducing motivation, &
- capacity/opportunity, making motivation have "fertile soil"
Below human-category, lives don't have our diversity-of-senses, our considered-reasoning ( Kahneman System-2, from "Thinking Fast & Slow" ), & above human-category, sentience isn't so circumstance-constrained, or semi-helpless, as to warrant earning real-change.
( I accidentally earned previous-Soul-memories, of other kinds of lives, back in the 1990's, and when I discovered what those strange memories were, that nuked ALL the Abrahamic religions from objective-validity, and forced me into years of worldview-evolution, to meet/earn/hold-to the data/evidence.
Non-autistics just ignore the contradicting evidence, the way Scientism does, with its cartoon oversimplifications, but I'd rather be autistic me, than be any normal, any day or eon. )
- ignorance/Soul-ignorance/ignosis blocks one's Soul/CellOfGod from ever escaping the experience-enforcing-learning "machine" that endless-stream-of-Universes is, so if one wants to be released from contained-in-the-churn-of-phenomena, one needs to earn making one's mind only out of kinds-of-mind that ignosis, & death, cannot grip on.
- Faithing ( surrendering-entirely-to-higher-power, relying-entirely-on-higher-power, being-gratitude-for-its-nonself-centered-giving-of-helping )
- Wisdom-piercing-ignorance-of-NoSelfInherentExistence
- Bodhichitta, immeasurable-compassion-for-all-continuums-and--sentiences-but-controlled-by-wisdom's-seeing-through-narcissism-etc.
Those 3 substances-of-mind are all "lighter than a feather", and therefore grant release-from-Soul-containment, when they are pure/absolute enough.
To simply "climb Jacob's Ladder", however, is a worthy accomplishment, itself!
Therefore, dying with a heart lighter than it had been before one's life, was earned improvement: evolution.
This should give the concept underlying Thoth.
Goddess Isis was simply their culture's representation for LivingSpirit, at one time.
Oh, this need be said: differentiate between the root-idea, vs the soap-opera-accretions that "society" asserts onto such ones..
E.g. for Hinduism to simultaneously hold that Shiva is
- absolute, beyond-Universe YOGA, capable of altering the fundamental structure of Universes so that evolution can happen ( holding evil in abeyance, lodged in Shiva's throat, after "drinking" it ) AND
- incompetent to perceive soap-opera machiavellianism, and so ambush-assaulted into "completely losing control" & massacring everybody in the region, before putting their lives back, when Shiva regained control..
Logic prohibits those 2 from coinciding, but Hinduism's been disallowing logic, on that point, for many many centuries.
Learn to cut-out the accretions-of-guff from the original-principles, when they're still findable.
Another example of that same principle is:
Genesis, in the Abrahamic bible,
Women ate "the fruit of The Knowledge of Good & Evil", WHICH MEANS MORALITY,
& shared morality with men.
Male-culture's bullying, of course, deliberately altered the scripture in order to put jealousy in God's mouth, to justify accusing women of "eternal sin" in earning morality.
Altruism is generalized mothering.
Wasp-researchers from Bristol & Exeter universities, in Panama, discovered this.
AwakeSoulism/Buddhism declared it 25 consecutive centuries ago.
The proper reading of that story in Genesis shows it was originally in the root scripture, but got "graffitti'd" out by the male religion-authorities, through the past 12-ish millenia ( since the FLOOD which ended the last ice-age, drowning all the coastal civilization, now findable only through SCUBA diving, offshore, at 50' up-to 400' deep ).
Beware the contaminations, & especially beware when entire factions have their "identity" welded onto the deliberate-contamination, instead of the underlying Truth .. there you get the "religious" ideological/prejudice genocides, that the last few millenia have been filled-with.
1st-past-the-post election "logic" is the only reason such 3rd-party candidates can K.O. a side, which gets more votes, from winning an election.
Never complain about a problem that you WON'T fix, & expect to be respected by people with intellectual-integrity.
Gaslighting isn't going to brainwash everybody.
The smaller the price-point target,
the bigger a chunk of it that each embedded component eats.
The markup/licensing for the GPU in a little device can be a significant percentage of that little device's potential-profit-margin.
Same as a $6 markup isn't significant on a $1000 thing, whereas it IS significant, when the target-price is only $10, and now you're left with $4 for all-your-contribution.
I've discovered that the good heart-rate sensors cost in the $30 range, whereas the shit ones are much much less.
So, if I were to put into production a fitness-trainer that used the proper equations, & didn't do any spying on people ( as Fitbit & smartwatches do ), then I'd need to .. either create a shit product, or bite the bullet & get the good sensors.
I can't afford to create my own sensors, see?
Maybe Sega can afford to make their own GPU.
Do keep in mind that there already has been a opensourcehardware GPU, iirc, some years ago ( shit performance, but if it's public-IP, and it can be significantly-improved-on, then it's possible )

"Zombies" are just an unconscious-mind metaphor for unreasoning ideological/prejudice mobarchy "rabies".
Proletariat/populist ( left/right: they are equivalently-destructive ) dictatorship highjacked your country?
Rampaging mobs butchering & burning your books, your infrastructure ( shooting electrical substations, hospitals, school-lunch-programs, civil-rights protection ), & your citizenry?
That's what real "zombies" are.
There was a youtube vid, testing multimeters, & there was a specific condition that produced wrong results in all the meters except Fluke, who had engineered to prevent that wrongness.
That was what decided me on trusting Fluke, in the future.
been years, no idea what channel it was on, sorry, but it should be findable for someone with patience, knowing that only the Fluke got it right, of the ones tested.
Do pay attention to the calibration-certificates, though:
Anybody paying for Fluke who ignores that their handhelds have no more than 2.5-digits of actual-accuracy, is foolish/incompetent.
( the cheap ones are sooo much worse.. )
Shouldn't that be contingent on Russia also ceasing strikes on Ukranian energy infrastructure??
You remember Connections, with James Burke?
John Romer/Roemer, whatever, his docu-series on Egypt?
That kind of thing.
I am trying to lear basic HTML/CSS/JavaScript ( again, last learned HTML back in the 1990's, am using "JavaScript: The Good Parts" & other books ),
& have discovered that you can have, on the same phone/tablet, Termux/Nginx running,
you have to feed /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/etc/nginx/nginx.conf the root-dir you want it to use
( which is actually in a proot-distro install, down below
/data/data/llcom.termux/files/usr/var/lib/proot-distro/installed-rootfs/ ... )
.. and then you can have your browser hit
and it'll grab index.html.
Notice that that is http, NOT httpS.
None of the browsers I've tried can get the default connection to localhost, because they all default to https, & nginx isn't serving https.
That wasted an entire fscking day, to discover.
Now learning can begin!
Damn.
That is WAAAY moar worser...
You know that tornadoes are already prevented through cloud-alteration, right?
This would criminalize that?
We need to criminalize incompetence-in-authority!!
IF you learn, THEN only temporarily.
IF you don't/won't learn, THEN you ARE a fool.
