Transitions I believe. I think it’s the last or one of the last ones he wrote (he died and 2013 and in the book he mentions 2008 crisis). Weakest of his books I’ve read. Don’t know if he didn’t had the time to finish it or something but it was just full of holes.

Banks had an idea that our total solar eclipse is unique on a galactic scale and aliens for sure come to Earth to see it. So if you want to find aliens you have to monitor solar eclipse sites. I wonder is any government agency actually did it.

Firefox is fine. Benefit of Bitwarden is that you can use the app to also store and fill in password in Android apps.

Fry onions, garlic, chorizo and tomato with olive oil
Add water, lentils, potatoes, bay leaf and salt.
Cook in a pressure cooker for 45 minutes.
I don’t know why it’s preferred to use this type. Some ancient Spanish knowledge I guess.

- Comment on What Phone do you guys use? 1 week ago:
/e/ and iode have better privacy features than GrapheneOS. GrapheneOS have great security but doesn’t offer anything special when it comes to privacy. /e/ and iode will also let you avoid new installation limitations.

What GraphaneOS features do you miss in your current ROM?
- Comment on What Phone do you guys use? 1 week ago:
GrapheneOS on a Pixel 8a, Google apps in a separate profile, local backup to a separate drive using rsync, notes/calendar/notes synced to nextcloud running on hetzner VPS. So pretty much same as everyone else here.
- Comment on Are Americans Actually Idiots? 1 week ago:
My theory is brain atrophy. It’s not that those people are stupid and unable to learn, it’s that they don’t have to use their brains for any sort of analytical thinking and kind of forget how to do it. You can still teach them their trade and they will be good at their job but they are never challenged intellectually. School is easy and you can finish education just by playing sports or whatever, news are predigested and dumbed down, entertainment is not intellectually stimulating in any way. Most people go through their lives without even having to contemplate anything deeper than what hamburger to have for lunch. Then when Trump shows up they simply don’t have the brain capacity needed to understand he’s lying to them. “He says the war is good for us”. That’s it. There’s no “but” because their brains can’t do that anymore. The processing just stops right there.
Of course there are still curious people there that study, wonder about things and try to understand the world. It’s just that they are the minority now. In other countries the proportions are reversed for now but things don’t look that good there either.
- Comment on What is likely to happen when/if trump dies? 1 week ago:
No, things would not change. Republicans would still control the Supreme Court. Over the last couple of years they learned that they can get away with anything: breaking any laws they want, straight out stealing money, building concentration camps, sending gestapo to murder people… They will not stop doing this only because Trump is dead.
Who exactly will take over after Trump is impossible to tell. Watch The Death of Stalin by Iannucci. This is exactly what will happen. A lot of infighting and backstabbing until new king of MAGA is crowned.

I lost contact with him when I moved to another country so I don’t know if it’s still true but it was definitely true between 2008 and 2015. No idea when he started doing it. He did mention something about it ‘being his turn’ so it’s possible other people did it before him as well.

I once knew a guy who didn’t put his coins in order. You know the trivia that average person swallows 8 spiders per year? It was this guy. He would sit at home and eat spiders all the time. Just spoonful after spoonful of spiders for every meal. 60 billion spiders each year. That’s were this statistics comes from. No idea if the coin thing was related. Completely normal guy otherwise.

- Comment on Would it be possible to have a successful career as a lawyer and never lie? 3 weeks ago:
Of course.
First, lawyers don’t say “my client is innocent”. They say “my client claims he is innocent”. Lawyers are not witnesses, they don’t claim anything in the court. They present evidence and ask questions. You don’t have to lie to do it.
Second, people imagine the job of a lawyer is to get their client acquitted. It’s not, it’s to represent their client in court.
Let’s say you are a lawyer and you have to represent a serial killer. The evidence is overwhelming and it’s obvious he is guilty but still he pleads “not guilty”. Your job is not to try avoid conviction. Your job is to make sure he is treated fairly and that his rights are respected. You basically have to oversee the trial from his side. Make sure that evidence was obtained legally, that witnesses tell the truth, that experts have proper credentials. You don’t have to lie to do any of that.
Yes, some lawyers will be experts in taking out criminals out of jails by manipulating juries, forging evidence or intimidating witnesses. Most lawyers are not.

My favorite is when they drive right next to you on the acceleration lane for hundredths of meters waiting for you to let them merge and once they merge they accelerate right away to go way faster.
- Comment on Causes of death, or track list for latest black metal album? 3 weeks ago:
Apropos “Cut of the Stone”. I read a book about history of surgery and one chapter was about a guy who remove his own bladder stone. Back then people didn’t have great hygiene and urinary track infections were common. Those would cause bladder stone that would get worse and worse witch each infection. The stone would block the urethra entrance so you would feel you like really need to pee but once you stand up you wouldn’t be able to. This wasn’t very pleasant so people would try to remove the stones. Typical way was to go through the taint, open the bladder, remove the stone. There’s a lot of blood vessels there so survival chances were not great. Doctors refused to do it because patients would die to often and then family would blame them and they had enough shit to deal with already. So you had traveling bladder stone removers. They would do the surgery and by the time patient would die they would be on the road again.
So this one guy, a blacksmith, tried to get his stone removed twice or had two stones removed already, it’s not clear. Anyway, he didn’t like the traveling stoncutters. So he got a sharp knife, ask some guy to assist him and did the surgery himself.

Someone needs to post detailed explanation of all those things. I hope it doesn’t have to be me.
