Octane Number, Day After Pump

Gasoline is a mixture of many components, with different volatilities and octane numbers. One could mix high and low octane number liquid hydrocarbons to make a commercial grade gasoline.

However, since some of the components are more volatile than others they will basically start a gravity separation when car is not running causing an evaporation at the surface and a distillation process in your fuel tank, with the more volatile components separating as vapors and being captured by the charcoal cannister and introduced in your intake manifold by the evap system when the car is running, like in a carbureted engine.

Gasolines that come with high octane number after distillation of crude and being applied other chemical processes are naturally high octane number gasolines and do not require as many octane boosting additives.

The biggest problem of having highly volatile additives in your gasoline is they will be distilled in  your fuel tank, separate first and then sent in the intake which would lower your octane number only after a few evap cycles or a few trips.

Decreasing of octane number would mean automatically decreasing timing advance that is adjusted by the computer continually using the knock sensor, thus decreasing efficiency, power and mileage and making you use more carbon per mile and pay more money for less.

One cheap way to mitigate with problems due to volatility of low quality gasoline and its additives is to make fuel tanks with a smaller evaporation surface, like installing then vertically maybe, behind the rear seat, which would probably decrease the safety rating of your vehicle. Another would be to seal the fuel tanks, and that would mean you would have some pressure inside, but maybe not as much as in the case of GPL tanks.

There could be other solutions, like capturing the vapor, making it liquid under pressure and putting it back in the tank but it would be an engineering nightmare to make a compressor to liquify gasoline on a car, mainly due to lack of lubrication properties of gasoline.

One more feasible variant of this solution would be thermally insulating the tank and cooling of your gasoline using your AC already in place, especially in hot summer days. Just one more branch of the AC cold line passing through the fuel tank.

Using a small mixer beater rotating in the tank would prevent gravity separation of the more volatile components at the surface in hot summer days when the car is not running. A plastic sheet floating at the surface of the gasoline maybe one inner pouch inside the tank that would wrinkle and collapse when empty, with no air inside and allowing no vapors out?

Un scandal cu alt scandal

Se creează o aversiune subconștientă față de tot ce scriu eu. Asta cu (ne)plafonarea prețurilor la produsele de bază, o idee importată din Ungaria, unde nu a funcționat prea bine, vine după ce am scris eu că Parlamentul a încălcat Legea Plafoanelor bugetelor pe 2025, mărind intenționat deficitul,

Un scandal cu alt scandal a fost întotdeauna metoda lor trainică dar ce i-a stârnit a fost ce am spus ieri despre imigranții din Naraka în Europa (hunii). Au vrut să ne arate că până acum ne-au tratat ca pe ei înșiși.

Realitatea este că jumătate din buget ori dispare ori nu este colectat datorită corupției ANAF. Asta o pot știu numai ei, guvernanții străini.

Pentru ce există o lege a plafoanelor dacă nu se respectă. Pentru ce acest deficit uriaș, mult peste 7% , programat prin legile bugetelor cu ajutorul "Creditelor de Angajament", o formă de buget multianual care practic face Bugetul de Stat nelimitat, deci legea o formalitate inutilă?

De ce Bugetul de Stat este multianual prin aceste "Credite de Angajament" iar Constituția spune că Bugetul este anual?

De ce Parlamentul format din străini nu-și respectă propriile legi? (o întrebare retorică).



Apropo de Ungaria. Unii, ca prof. Mihai Vinereanu din New York spun că majoritatea locuitorilor din Ungaria de azi sunt români (daco-romani) mai întâi hunificați și apoi maghiarizați, din care mulți, nedeclarați în recensăminte, încă vorbesc românește.

Elita conducătoare de azi, cea maghiară din Ungaria, prezentă și în România (care provine într-adevăr din Nepal, din moment ce au stârnit și acolo un scandal de acoperire) ignoră orice legi sau logică de tip european și aplică mereu în neștire aceeași regulă din magia lor adusă din jungla virgină din Australia, via Asia, care le ține loc de cultură, adică un scandal cu alt scandal.

Teoria vechii conspirații a întregului Parlament asupra Bugetului României

"Prin bunuri ce furară, în veci vezi cum conspiră
Contra celor ce dânșii la lucru-i osândiră"

(Eminescu, comunist? El a scris Împărat și proletar în 1874, iar Marx a scris Manifestul în 1848).

Bolojan, întreg Parlamentul, a încălcat Legea Plafoanelor din 10 februarie 2025 a cheltuielilor bugetare pe care a semnat-o în calitatea de atunci de Președinte al Senatului și nu a existat nici o opoziție la încălcarea acestei legi din partea nici unui parlamentar, Președinte sau CCR.

Aceste plafoane au fost calculate pentru un deficit de 7% dar 10 zile mai târziu Parlamentul, Bolojan au încălcat această lege prin Legea Bugetului de Stat din 20 februarie 2025 care prevede 70 miliarde mai mult doar pentru Bugetul de Stat și 32 miliarde mai mult pe total Buget General Consolidat.

Recent Bolojan a declarat că deficitul real pe 2025 ar fi fost 10% fără reforme, (care însumează doar câteva miliarde de lei după cun ne-a arătat olimpicul) deși PIB-ul, veniturile sau cheltuielile pe 2025 nu se cunosc încă. PIB-ul este necesar pentru calcularea deificatului. Se scad veniturile bugetare din cheltuieli și se împart la PIB.

După cum vedeți în Legea Bugetului de Stat, Bugetul României este un buget mulți-anual și variabil, cu o infinitate posibilă de versiuni (așa numitele credite de angajament) această frază din lege încălcând Constituția care spune că Bugetul se stabilește anual.

Dacă vă uitați cu atenție în Legea Bugetului apare o sumă pe cheltuieli care se numește Credite de angajament, care nu intră în calculul deficitului, care s-ar mări foarte mult cu această sumă, sumă care se distribuie tot așa pe ministere (mă rog, ordonatori de credit, prima sumă aici), care oricum nu văd prea mult din sumele fantastice atribuite chiar prin "credite bugetare".

Când am adunat cheltuielile bugetare ale ministerelor (ordonatorilor de credite, am ignorat această sumă iar totalul a fost 522 miliarde, mai mare decât chiar în Legea Bugetului, care prevede 499 miliarde. 

Deși nu a explicat nimeni vreodată, din ce știu eu, bănuiesc că este vorba de un buget multi-anual, această sumă fiind disponibilă pe mai mulți ani, la cheremul miniștrilor, și care se pare că nu intră în calculul deficitului în nici unul din acești ani. Din punct de vedere contabil, este o aberație. (Când i-am arătat acum mai mulți ani lu' Angela (fostă șef birou contabilitate până în 95) s-a ridicat de la calc și nu a mai vrut să discute).

După cum am spus mai sus, o aberație și dpdv constituțional.

În versiunea cu credite de angajament, deficitul ar fi mai mult decât dublu.

Conspirația e mult mai vastă, după cum spuneam sumele de cheltuieli din Legea bugetului distribuite pe ministere nu ajung acolo, nici măcar pe jumătate.

Așa zisa opoziție din Parlament, cu 4 moțiuni de cenzură într-o zi în care nu aveau nici o șansă nu face altceva decât să distragă atenția.

Cvorumul pentru trecerea pachetului (și a moțiunii) a fost completat prin online? Încă o bătaie de joc la adresa Constituției care spune că pentru o lege organică jumătate din Parlamentari trebuie să fie prezenți.

Transference in Psychological Warfare

Subliminal in the mind of general audience was always something closely related to conspiracy theories, since it is often mentioned by those who allege manipulation in media, something most people deny since they keep consuming it. Here it is mentioned by scientists at the end of this philosophical definition of emotions, if we can agree psychology is already a science more than an observation of (a very complex side of human) nature (i do not agree with the definition itself).

On the other hand we have the purely physiological definition of emotions, as a make up of a number of neurotransmitters. We also know that emotions create memories. On a tridimensional model, we can create or retrieve a memory (or the beginning of it) at the intersection of specific concentrations of these three neurotransmitters. The more intense the emotions, the higher the concentration at intersection, the longer lasting and ease of retrieval of that memory.

The link between the two definitions is simple. The unconscious (mind) evaluation of a situation needs to be fast since an individual's fate may depend on the reaction time (No time for reasoning). Depending on the stimuli, the neurotransmitters are released in specific proportions.

Feeling or the sense of urgency is what remains on a short term from an emotion undealt with right away for various reasons.

Memory is what remains after the dimming of those feeling. Feelings can be recreated by accessing that memory that helps bringing up all the details. Both feelings and emotions are an evolutionary necessity.

An individual can remember when at ease what happened at a certain moment and deal with it if still possible or share the experience with the group.

Conscious evaluation of those feelings, sometimes by just sharing them and sometimes with the help of a therapist that is trained to help retrieving them helps putting them to rest or quenching them with .

We can see both emotions and feelings are part of the unconscious mind.

Freud was an Austrian Jewish therapist, founder of modern psychology though its branch psychoanalysis. During the late decades he was largely marginalized due to advent of chemical psychiatry.

Freud shared with us his undeniable highly successful therapy experiences though which he discovered one of the most important aspects of psychology, something named by him transference.

On short, by generalizing his definition, feelings undealt with can transfer from towards the initial object, situation or person to another, if somehow enough unconscious stimuli that lead initially to those feelings thus triggering the same combination of neurotransmitters can be recreated.

That may be evolutionary also because people while socializing may voluntarily share or helped to remember situations, how they dealt with, helping the members of the group to deal with similar situations if repetition is suspected possible.

However human socialization rules have changed very fast during the last millennia especially in differentiated societies (like with classes). People have learned to keep their experiences and thoughts to themselves more than in the past, this bringing to them a survival advantage. That evolutionary function of human behavior, sharing of memories, started to be suppressed, individuals accumulating undealt with emotional experiences.

Children of the civilized families let's say in Freud's Vienna often did not have an opportunity to share their intimate thoughts with their parents maybe because such sharings where considered inappropriate and sometimes they carried for a long time their negative experiences exactly with those who they normally were supposed to share, never having an opportunity to quench their feelings.

Why transference has such importance, not only in psychology but mostly in psychological warfare.

Emotions, feelings and even memories are uncontrollable.

By intentionally creating a combination of stimuli similar to those created by the sharing of an experience by an individual to the group the old fashion, ancestral way; using some elements of the experience, and adding some new information of their own, an interested entity may be able to create similar emotions and cancel or suppress the memory of those shared thoughts, substituting (transferring) in the mind of a person or even a large audience (in a subliminal or hidden, unrecognizable fashion) the shared situation with something else, related semantically, and with this suppressing or twisting any memory that can bring ideas that may be a disadvantage to them.

Transference also occurs frequently with showing in media of persons in power (TV presenters, politicians) postures, substituting for fathers and mothers, or intimate postures, substituting for lovers, postures that may also carry direct or hidden (subliminal), undeniable (by perception) messages.

FED Influence on the Illusion of Wealth

Total market capitalization is the sum of market capital of all listed companies. For the whole market the sum is $62.8 trillion as of July 1st. S&P 500 is a list of 500 companies that together represent 53.3 trillion as of today. We may say S&P 500 is quite representative for the whole market.

Today came Mr. Powel who is the head of an entity called Federal Reserve, a bank ("of last resort, created after the great recession to deal with financial crisis"), and said they are (only) thinking about an interest rate cut and the whole market went up some one and a half percent (everybody became 1.5% richer that is).

S&P 500 (man is so hard to write because of & sign) index is a weighed (by capital) average of all stock prices in the list and today it rose some 1.5%. Unfortunately i cannot find the value of the rise of the whole market cap of 62.8, all i could find was the current value of S&P, 53.3 though it should follow closely the index. (So yesterday market cap should have been something like 1.51% less).

Which means everybody who owns stock in the US market today is 1.51% richer. 62.8 trillions (last known value) by 1.5% = 945 billions. Almost one trillion have been added today to their capital out of nothing or Powel's words). One of the wonders of capitalism.

How is that possible. I mean, someone's 401k should not depend by daily market fluctuations, right?

Unfortunately, there's more to it. Biggest ten firms listed on S&P have market cap in the trillions, which count for about 40 % of the whole market cap, though their assets (real selling value) are hundreds of times less. As of today, the most "valuable" firm in the world is Nvidia, with 4.1 trillion market value which BTW rose today with 1.7%.

(As for AI, count the number of contradictions in the answers (of google AI) or the number of different answers at different times for the same questions).

It is all an illusion, if not a Ponzi scheme, with the biggest listed firms being over evaluated hundreds of times (through successive daily fluctuations over the years). However, it is there where retirement money or 401 k are for most Americans. Japanese money are in real estate or whatever that is. Land.

All firms traded on the stock market do loan money especially for short term purposes and the banks loan from FED. So how much money does FED lend to banks to have such an influence on the market?

In other words, FED deals with financial crisis every 5 or 10 years, rest of the time is in standby and manipulates the market mostly with rumors many times a year if not on daily basis. BTW, could or did they do anything about the dot.com bubble of Y2K?

I guess their only purpose is keep the market over inflated so people put more of their retirement money in it.

And yeah, instead of dot com bubble we are living nowadays the AI bubble led by Nvidia.
