How Big is Really Facebook?

Facebook is a web site with its own vast infrastructure. The number of users dictates unprecedented scaling for hosting all data, especially pictures, videos, etc.. One single user has data spread across hundreds of their servers. But how big really is?


"Windmill, open sourced in 2012: The Server V2 design, also known as “Windmill,” was a power-optimized, bare-bones motherboard for Intel Xeon processors designed to provide lowest capital and operating costs. It did away with many features that vendors usually include in servers but that aren’t necessary for Facebook’s needs."

"It’s unclear what that number [of servers] is today, but it’s bound to be in the hundreds of thousands. In its most recent annual SEC filing, Facebook reported that it owned about $3.63 billion in “network equipment” as of the end of 2015 — up from $3.02 billion in 2014."

"As Facebook grows, its data center requirements are growing along with it. The data center Oregon was announced as being 147,000 square feet. But as construction got rolling, the company announced plans to add a second phase to the project, which added another 160,000 square feet, bringing the total size of the campus to 307,000 square feet – larger than two Wal-Mart stores. Last year, Facebook secured permits to build another 487,000-square foot data center in Prineville."

"The social network has since expanded capacity in Prineville and built data centers in Forest City, North Carolina, Lulea, Sweden, and Altoona, Iowa. It has been expanding capacity in each of those locations continuously by building additional data center facilities. The company is also building data centers in Fort Worth, Texas, Clonee, Ireland, and Los Lunas, New Mexico."

"Facebook’s servers are powered by chips from both Intel and AMD, with custom-designed motherboards and chassis built by Quanta Computer of Taiwan and other original design manufacturers. It has also experimented with ARM-powered servers."

"Facebook was developed from the ground up using open source software. The site is written primarily in the PHP programming language and uses a MySQL database infrastructure. To accelerate the site, the Facebook Engineering team developed a program called HipHop to transform PHP source code into C++ and gain performance benefits."

If we divide let's say as of today 3 billion users to 300 thousands servers by 1 TB each we get something like 10 GB per user. Google right now gives you 15 GB free per account in which you can put lots of pictures and videos. I don't know, it's a lot of space and i don't see the average user needing so much.

July 17

 9:35 AM Energy sector paradox hits again. After wide swings of oil prices caused by blocking of traffic in Hormuz straight which was actually driving the market in the opposite direction, today we experience again the weird effect of oil price increase (within the old "normal" daily limits) on energy sector and the whole market. In the same time, the AI enthusiasm is dwindling.

9:43 Japan in the 80s touted about the "a next generation of computers" "capable of thinking like humans". Decades have passed and everybody forgot about.

Now we have chatGPT, Gemini and other stuff they call AI which is basically tapping the huge internet database and sophisticated queries on it showing little or shy decision making, nothing more, buggy and generating surprising and everchanging answers. Obviously not the AI we were all expecting.

On the other side they say they still did not decipher how actually the human brain works. However the study shown below confirms the fact that intelligence is only a small part of processing of stimuli and most of it is based on past experiences (though i don't believe is feedback loops, i think of it more like modeling pathways based on spatial neurotransmitters gradients, like i said before.

But could they possibly have in secret locations supercomputers that work for unnamed entities for decades now that are actually much smarter than open AI? Did they needed internet, cloud based cellular communication to harness all human knowledge to train those machines? To me there's no doubt about it.

9:37 Ok on my way back from Red Winds Casino (we first went to Little Creek) an idea came to me. To search for data centers around places i go. Cause i see too much coordination like many extras moving by a script inside the stores, casinos, hotels, etc.. Not talking about here. They awaited me in the parking lot with a number of shows i don't want to talk about anymore cause i'm tired of it.

First when i searched i saw Oregon, a state with what 4, 5 million inhabitants is in the top ten in the US for data centers. Working, proposed, whatever. Yes there is water and electricity in Oregon. In Portland area there are over 30 in Hillsboro, the town known for Nike and Intel.

I remember when i worked at Les Schwab, Aloha in 1997, there was this mysterious, vacated old Intel building next to and i was suspecting, even then, they were running the show (links later) from supercomputers in there. It was demolished in 2015, decades after being closed, certainly after i wrote about somewhere, don't have time to search now, will show later.

Angela was working for Eaton on Teton St. Then when i wrote about they moved on Avery. But about 3 years ago they plowed a long field just across the street (making much dust i think in 2022) and then they erected another mysterious building with no windows and small parking lot and i kept asking myself what it was (and then after a while, i forgot).

And today i finally had the revelation. It could be a data center (or supercomputer, the same). More than that, there is (or was, in February 2023) Scientology crosses all around it which are not on google maps in 2024 anymore (or after i wrote about) and a logo appeared. The place is about 3 miles from here. Low latency that is.

God help us all.

I am really tired. I can't write other things i want to. When i got home the brown guy with moustache was playing ball with his dog next to a poop. First i wanted to to pick it but the dog came to pick the ball right next to it so i delayed it for now but in the meantime they brought another one, fresh next to balcony and i got really nauseated.

BTW picking those is tricky. I have to hold my breath for a few seconds until i knot the bag and walk away and even then i can catch the cloud of smell that travels with me and then i'm in big trouble cause in a few hours i can either get diarrhea (if it was a poop with diarhea) or my f...s smell like dog the next day.

Many other things i just can't write anymore about.

10:30 Papagalii. Eu am scris primul. Apropo, CNA ar trebui să tragă cu ochiul la ce mai scrie Dinescu în Cațavencii. Apropo, în România a avut loc o lovitură de stat, Primul Ministru a fost demis de Parlament și nu pleacă, cu complicitatea Președintelui. Apropo, de ce mai este Valentin Jucan la CNA?

Apropo cred că m-an întâlnit cu omul într-un mod asemănător în care m-am întâlnit cu Vîlceanu în 20 August 2021 înainte de accident, adică neșttind cine era, joi dimineață, cu câteva ore înainte de o fază de accident care putea să se termine foarte nașpa, am avut un noroc chior, vorbeam cu Angela, am întors capul spre ea când am văzut pe japoneza aia venind din banda din dreapta puțin din spate spre mine, și am tras de volan, dar tipa s-a redresat instant când a văzut că nu mă mai poate lovi.

O fază asemănătoare, tot înainte de un sens giratoriu (un simbol solar) am avut și azi tot cu un japonez, o Toyota neagră mai veche de 10 ani și primele două litere din număr, CS.

11:45 I went and stopped the AC and shot the sliding door and looked in the back and my eyes fell like usually on the several meters tall wall beyond the complex. But today after i looked at the pictures linked above, with that building accros the street from Eaton i started asking myself, what if they secretly built a basement with some computer rooms in there?

 Picture taken on 7/1/2025. It was winter when they gave us the notice for the construction of the new "park" which they began by removing the trees and then they erected first some pillars than a several meters wall in the lower part to "contain" the ground since the old park was on a slope wall that today actually look from this direction like a building wall. But in the notice they meant the next winter.

Could it be a micro data center in there? Coordinating all that is happening in here and especially the robots upstairs that walk on my brain waves right now? More details tomorrow, too tired now. All the guys i saw working there were Japanese posing in Mexicans whatever.

Another picture with another phase of construction. And another one. Tomorrow i will go and take more pictures, especially from above. But man did they pour lots of concrete. I think i saw dozens of ready-mix trucks. The reason was not the wall but the huge ramp for wheelchairs on the left where that guy is drilling.

I has walls and is like an empty room under, L shaped, the shorter part was like 12 ft wide and tall as you can see and the long part, narrower. I took pictures of it once when was flooded by rain. Again, tomorrow. But i think the basketball half court on top of the wall is covered by concrete as well.

May 8

1:45 I hate to see every time i want to post something the date has changed. I mean, time is flying so fast.

Got to a conclusion with my study regarding the correlation of number of earthquakes and moon distance. Apparently the column i added manually for Moon distance 8 years ago was wrong. I can't remember where it took it from, a calculator from a site, it was showing a correlation but could not interpret the results.

Recently i looked at and realized that correlation is possible, however i only had distances added for 8 years out of 76.

After a few days of work and emotions i added in the table columns with the most updated formulas for calculating the Moon distance, those from Wikipedia. But this time i verified a few instances with Stellarium. Stellarium does not give center to center (Earth center and Moon center) distances but the distance from a point on Earth and the surface of the Moon.

Since Earth is rotating, the distance from a point varies according to the our of the day, by up to 2 times Earth diameter, or 12k kilometers but for the instances i verified, the distance calculated was within those limits.

As base for calculations i used the Julian date or day, used by NASA and Stellarium that starts on 1/1/4713 BC.

There is no doubt the chart is not random (if there are not other mistakes), but it shows a strong correlation, a bit different from the one with the wrong distances. As for why there are more earthquakes in certain distance ranges, i think it has something to do with the pull of Moon on Earth on different points of the ecliptic.

But the way the earthquakes happen both on small distances and long ones can only mean one thing. There are two different types, one that happen at high pressure when the phase change in the magma (under and @100 km depth) is in one direction and ones that happens at low pressure, when the phase change reverses. This way we can have earthquakes in the same magma pocket as long as the pressure and temperature conditions are near equilibrium in that pocket.

I will add here a link to the sheet, not the html but the sheet itself. I guess it can only be opened if you have a google account and you are signed in. So those interested can see how i implemented those formulas in the sheet.

There is one more thing i have to add. If you scroll down in the sheet will see on the left two diagrams showing location (longitude, latitude) and depth of the 431 events >4 between 1940 and 2016 in Romania.

It looks like they are distributed on a well or grape bunch like structure, and not on a line or "fault" as expected when talking about "fractures" of the "tectonic plates".

There could not have been mistakes, for those charts i used the data exactly as downloaded from USGS.

BTW Anybody who  knows a bit of Excel can try and do this for any seismic area. Go to USGS search catalog, choose magnitude, time range, etc., draw a rectangle on a map, and then chose CSV as download format. Then you upload the data in a sheet, draw charts in longitude-latitude-depth coordinates, anything you like.

There is a software called jmol used to represent interactively molecules in 3D big. I plan on finding something similar so i can represent in 3D + magnitude (tiny ball size) an entire seismic area. This way we can all see the distribution and basically the anatomy of the seismic area so we can study it cause it looks like our scientists don't care if it doesn't sell.

If you click on the link above, then click on the static representation and try to stop the rotation with your mouse.

I would think if you could do a time based slider controlled animation of the evolution of a bunch you could probably see how the earthquakes move from one place to another and figure what a seismic area actually is and maybe how it works.

Please note the software is free, done by volunteers. Think of what they have on supercomputers and AI and keep for themselves.

9:09 Am lipsit o săptămână de acasă oh boy. Noua ordine constituțională săptămânală din Ungro-Vhahia.

Copilotul Mickey Mouse (fost Prim Ministru, de 4 ori) s-a trezit dintr-o lungă hibernare și glumește. România se află în faliment de cel puțin 10 ani sau de când serviciul datoriei externe (dobânzi plus rate) a depășit bugetul Ministerului Finanțelor și este plătit pur și simplu din bugetele altor ministere.

Aici Nicușor Dan are dreptate, România nu va fi retrogradată la junk, fiindcă noi trebuie să plătim în continuare aceste "servicii" și să împrumutăm în continuare. Dacă România ar fi retrogradată la junk, nu ar mai avea nimic de pierdut dacă nu ar mai plăti un sfert de trilion de euro...

Oricum, România ca stat nu câștigă sau pierde nimic din aceste "gradări" (ratings), e vorba doar de România ca bancă. Care își consumă (în secret) însă jumătate din buget pe dobânzi și rate.

Yes the lone accountant is back... The eternal battery?  

6:45 Where are all these chips going, really? Where is the intelligence? In total surveillance. with the ever increasing data center capacity? 

7:00 AM Never had a chance to write about Tom Cruise at Creekside (across the I5 from Seven Feathers). He acted like both the receptionist and night man so we met with him 4 times on two stays.

The trick with the elevator there. When he left the second stay, Angela pressed the 1 button, the elevator stopped, we got out and found ourselves at last floor (3). So they can prove we're either stupid or can't read.    

10:52 București, atenție la fluturele care bate din aripi la Tokio.

6:30 AM The bad news. Papagalismul nu se limitează la România.

11:45 I'm really glad it's over and i don't have to see these POV cartoons anymore. Is that a shadow between his legs?  
They always make me think of

1:15 La câteva minute după ce am postat au venit ei cu ceva.

4:23 As for the link between the Scientology cross on the building across Eaton that later changed in favor of acronym DSV, a logistics company, there may be a link. (Apparently, someone, something or myself getting distracted i missed a link in the post last night trying to prove there is a data center belonging to Scientology across the street from where Angela works. Probably from where they run the whole show there and here, at 3 miles away).

There was a forgotten sci-fi show called Seaquest DSV. (SeaOrg is the innermost group of most advanced Scientologists). Several actors who were Scientology members or with ties with Scientology were staring in the show. Based on the fact they change the sign of the building from Scientology cross to DSV we may conclude that DSV logistics firm belongs to them. And what else.

The Scientology cross featured in Seaquest DSV confederation flag featured in the show is proof that the show was linked to Scientology.

6:00 Even the logos use the same type of fonts.

6:06 Judging by the reaction of the man upstairs when i was posting the above. He started to make big noises, came with a friend and two guitars and started practicing like for a band. That solved the mystery of the base, but he wanted me to see and hear that for the first time. Also one of them spoke clearly on the stairs, for about one minute, to let me hear an educated voice.

But that didn't last long, was only a demonstration, for reason shown before (environmental).

Then i remembered what Mircea Dinescu urges me for years now, using a very colorful language and innuendos in dedicated poems in his publication with s...t name (in Italian when pronounced in Romanian), and that is to mingle with my female neighbors. Given the new logo of the management i wrote about and their way of permanently knowing my state of mind and interfering through use of technology or maybe some "telepathic like" powers or tricks, there is little doubt right now they are actually Scientologists.

But the question is about Dinescu now. Dinescu's name reminds of Dianetics, the theological foundation of Scientology having as name the Sanskrit word dhyAna, which stands for meditation. I have previously shown that many elements from Hinduism are found in  Scientology.

Poet and journalist Mircea Dinescu played a pivotal role in the Romanian Revolution of December 89 and then paving the road for today Romania's bankruptcy. Given what happened to me in HS, having Travolta as class mate (first two years) and roommate (one trimester in last year) the question right now is if Scientology was involved in Romania's Revolution, the fall of Soviet Union and so on.

September 13

1:28 In retaliation to my last posts, they poured in the walls so much dog litter dust it stinks from the outside. It made me of course really sick, with constant stomach pain. Every time a vehicle with modified exhaust or a helicopter passes, more of it gets on my head.

3:10 The reason i woke up at midnight and can't sleep. I open the sliding door trying to air, it was better for a while, then smoke concentration rose and had to close it.

3:11 Ok poate nu am ales poza cea mai bună pentru asemănarea cu Simona Halep, pe vremea aceea nici eu nu luam asemănările astea prea în serios și oricum mă concentram pe nume mai mari. Ce ziceți de asta, pe care nu am chef la ora asta s-o decupez și să fac altă asemănare Se pare că tipa a avut o carieră lungă în Ungaria, ca modelă (de lenjerie intimă), chiar și prezentatoare TV înainte de a fi reciclată în tenis și trimisă în România.

La fel ca Țiriac, un cântăreț de operă din Ungaria (nu sunt sigur cine, am mai mulți candidați), care a făcut carieră (scurtă, un singur album și un turneu, dar se mai aude și acum din când în când) în SUA ca și cântăreț de folk, pe numele Jim Croce (country whatever), "a murit" într-un accident de avion și a apărut în România peste câțiva ani, doar pentru că semăna cu Dracula. La fel ca Irina Loghin (Patsy Cline) etc..

LOL stau și râd singur aici în noapte.

3:38 A trecut o săptămână de când am reușit în sfârșit să trec de testul de compatibilitate a telefonului pe care l-am cumpărat pe Amazon în ianuarie cu 120 de dolari, unlocked, neștiind că nu era făcut pentru SUA. Telefonul (cu cartelă, prepaid) a funcționat 6 luni la Hello Mobile, intermitent. Adică dacă mergeam dintr-o zonă în alta, nu se lega automat la turn, trebuia să-l repornesc deși internet aveam pe el tot timpul. Am închis contul într-o zi când m-a enervat, nu am găsit ceva mai bun și m-am întors la Hello Mobile (T-Mobile adică Deutsche Telekom). Dar acum nu mai treceam de faza de compatibilitate pe site. 

Puneam IMEI-ul și nu mă lăsa să deschid cont. Am mai încercat peste un timp și acum trecea de faza aia, am pus adresa, card-ul și ei mi-au spus că au trimis sim card-ul, care trebuia să vină a doua zi cu Amazon. Avem în complex locker Amazon, adică un dulap cu uși care se deschid automat când pui un cod care-l primești într-un email. Dar cred că cineva fac pe nebunii, sim card-ul nu mai ajunge la mine de o săptămână. După mai multe sesiuni de chat din care una am pus-o ca postare de blog, azi am vorbit la telefon cu un tip din India (multe firme au serviciul clientului în străinătate) care vorbea o engleză puțin diferită și părea prea șmecher ca să fie un angajat obișnuit, era mult zgomot în call center, vocea se auzea distorsionat iar eu trebuia să ghicesc cuvintele.

Cred că unul din scopuri este de a încerca să demonstreze că eu nu vorbesc engleza chiar așa de bine cum scriu, altul să simuleze rasism din partea T-mobile, care apare că mă șicanează intenționat, iar azi în media românească mai apare și articolul acesta, care chiar m-a enervat și m-a făcut să scriu rândurile astea deși nu prea aveam chef.

4:07 Mi-a venit o idee ce să mai fac ca să scap de greață, m-am dus în "bucătărie" să dau un măr pe răzătoare aia măruntă, ca pentru copii mici (mere din alea verzi, acrișoare și tari ca lemnul, e nevoie de ceva efort ca să-l razi, treabă de vreo 5 minute) când tipa de sus, de data asta fără să facă cel mai mic zgomot de pași, a dat drumul la duș, timp de vreo 5 minute, care la ora asta din noapte într-o clădire de lemn se aude normal ca o Niagara, iar vibrațiile aduc mai mult miros și praf din pereți. Ok am terminat de curățat mărul acela, dar din cauza stresului și a iritării pe esofag de la praf și acid din stomac, mi s-a oprit, așa dat prin răzătoare, în esofag, după care speriat, am luat niște ceai și a trecut cu greu și dureros.

5:32 Tipa seamănă cu fosta nevastă a lui McCartney cu care el a scos niște melodii chiar bunicele. Mda și reacția burselor la postarea asta. No intention, sorry.

10:37 I was feeling like paralyzed when i too some almond  butter with grapefruit juice. Slept some more, awoke with dog s... taste in my mouth when delivery knocked on my door. There is still some smoke outside, though AQI is near 50. Got my sim card, put it in the phone, had some emotion because on the envelope was written Be part of the 5G revolution, my phone is 4G, now the phone works and i don't have a funky number except for 8960. 60 is my birth year, easy to remember, 89... etc.. Unlimited talk, 4 gigs of data for 15 dollars a month, i hope i have enough data to play music from youtube (where i have coverage) in car's stereo.

10:40 Yeah it looks like many of the cathedrals have inside lotus motifs. Some have spires. Some, or those with one tower look a lot like a version of Shiva's lingam. Television tower in Hamburg, where i climbed at the rotating restaurant in 72 when i was 12 etc.. I would assume because Goths were of Chinese origin. Don't know if these are real Gothic medieval characters, but some of the Gothic letters seem to have been Latin letters touched by Chinese calligraphy. Zic și eu ca fraierul, oare academicienii nu știu chestiile astea, ori le e frică să vorbească ori sunt din tabăra învingătorilor, care au scris de mult istoria?

11:19 Faptul că are pe cadranul vitezometrului 310 sau că motorul poate sau că ei îl promovează așa nu înseamnă că poate atinge această viteză pe o autostradă obișnuită, care de obicei mai poate avea denivelări, cu un șofer oarecare sau în general. Autostrăzile sunt rute de transport foarte convenabile, fără intersecții, fără opriri, fără prea mari aglomerații dar nu sunt piste de curse sau de aterizare decolare pe un aeroport. Eu am condus mult pe autostrăzi în SUA (27 de ani, 32k km numai în ultimul an) și nu am văzut pe nimeni inclusiv eu conducând mai mult de 150 kmh. Mașinile autorizate la vânzare au în general o limitare soft la această viteză dincolo de care nu mai accelerează, ca să nu mai vorbim de încălcarea legii, facilitată chiar de producător. Și atunci pentru ce să cumperi o asemenea mașină? Ca să atingi primul viteza maximă legală când pleci de la semafor.

2:03 Obstinația asiatică. Ei nu se vor opri niciodată din a încerca să vă convingă, pentru că e mult mai ușor să convingi pe cineva ca să-l poți fura. Lumea cumpără de Crăciun cu bani trimiși din afară. De ce nu dați cifrele bugetului, câți bani s-au cheltuit până acum și pe ce. Pentru că jumătate din banii din buget pleacă în Ungaria.

2:41 I wouldn't have posted the paragraph with the Chinese origin of the Goths if i didn't receive this today. Somehow Amazon printed on a regular Amazon envelope a lotus motif and sent it to my door. The market crashed for the rest of the day, though the crash stopped when i went at WinCo where  they have  their people who move around me to create incredible situations. Market always goes up half percent when i go there.

2:50 În SUA faptele se pot prescrie doar până în momentul depunerii plângerii. Dacă ancheta a început înainte de prescriere, prescrierea nu se mai aplică.

Ciudățenie. Un cetățean obișnuit nu poate face plângere penală, asta este doar la decizia poliției.

La fel de ciudat mi se pare că în România o anchetă și în general procesul judiciar să poată fi oprit, odată început. Ce te faci dacă ancheta începe cu câteva zile înainte de termenul de prescriere, o zădărnicești?

Termene de prescriere (statutes of limitations) în Oregon.

7:36 Now i know why it was stinking yesterday on the outside. Next to kitchen window they didn't seal right the new piece of vertical siding they installed. Stuff from the wall released from upstairs was falling and depending on wind, was getting on the deck and back inside from under the door.

10:50 Deci totul a pornit de la o eroare? Corina Chiriac are într-adevăr vocea foarte asemănătoare cu a lui Tony Tenille, dar nu am verificat niciodată îndeaproape asemănarea fizică. Astfel am aflat azi că există o cântăreață de operă corespunzătoare lui Corina Chiriac în Ungaria, dar cam atât. Deci prima mea asemnănare reușită a fost a Angelei Similea. Sau Anda Călugăreanu. În 2011. O postare de blog incompletă, cu link-uri sricate care dovedește data la care am început cu aceste asemănări. În fiecare zi spun că mă opresc, apoi apare ceva în știri și mă enervez și mă apuc iar.

April 16

12:15 When i described the latest version of the catch can (there's a new one in my head already), i forgot to say one more time what i said before. The modern cars have the intake manifold under the level of the engine's head and the out ports are above the throttle body. For that reason, it is possible for oil from the PCV to pool in there.

When i got my first Elantra in 2018, a  2013 model which i still like a lot as body stile, much nicer than the 2018 anyway i used a normal vacuum cleaner to which i attached at the end of the hose a thin 5-6 mm piece of PVC flexible tubbing about two ft long (that was not so perfectly attached, allowing air to get in that hose anyways, which helped with functionality).

With the engine off, i was holding with one hand the throttle open, and with the other i was inserting the flexible tubing downwards, making sure it reaches the bottom of the intake. I pulled so much of it, to my engrossment, it coated the whole vacuum hose on the inside.

Must have been ounces of it. But i must confess: i poured earlier a full can of valve cleaner. But it was black which proves the intake was coated on the inside with oil mixed with soot from EGR that was still trickling up the ports getting to the valves after the cleaning.

And because more oil kept getting in there and could not do the stunt too many times, i invented a small vacuum for that purpose only. Again a piece of tubing connected to the other (suction) side of a pneumatic mat pump that works at 12 volts. Of course the air that gets out of it has drops of oil when you hit the puddle inside. I encased the whole pump into a one gallon water bottle.

However after i got tired of periodically vacuuming the intake, i built the first version of the can. Which actually was an inline filter that was clogging fast. Then i found about catch cans on forums.

The 2018 model had the valves cleaner, however is very sensitive to the smallest amount of oil it gets in there. I also did not pull much from the bottom of the intake.

But if your valves look like this, a catch can won't help. I thought it was understood. You need to clean those first. Get a can of Seafoam or whatever, spray it in the intake through the throttle or a vacuum port while someone presses on the gas pedal to keep the engine running.

You will see black smoke coming out of the exhaust until those are clean, and then can vacuum the intake for the remaining cleaner trapped in. Or wait until it trickles up and get burnt in the engine (maybe). And then the catch can will help with the tick.

And of course if you think this method is nuts, there's always R2D2.

Pour... Les... Roumains. Încercați totuși să faceți un efort de imaginație ca să realizați cât de fioroși sunt ăștia și cum încearcă prin subliminale care de data asta sunt foarte subțiri (criza) să distrugă munca oricui deși Dinescu se dă de partea celor cu nădușeala pe piept. Mai înlocuiți mai devreme în poezie cuvântul talanți cu talenți. Telefon cu fise. Bine oricare din ei se dă de partea cuiva, ca să-i ducă mai repede în prăpastie. 

11:04 PM Hai să lămurim o chestie. Din când în când, cam de 2 ori pe an săptămână Fürjes Dinescu se bagă în seamă cu câte o poezie, scrisă cu ceva meșteșug, care le fac atractive.

Fiindcă s-a luat iar de mine și i-am răspuns, s-a stârnit acum în media o frenezie legată de subiectele deschise de meșteșugul dlui. Una din "știri" vorbește iar despre punerea sub acuzare a foștilor lideri revoluționari (un banc răsuflat) iar pe mine mă face iar să mă gândesc cum să demonstrez că zâmbărețul Iliescu, capo di tutti capi rivoluzionari, sărac dar curat, e mort de mult iar ăștia îl țin așa în vila aceea de lux ca să îi încaseze Ionuț Vuliescu, valetul lui se pare, pensia.

Ultima poză a lui György Illés înainte de a muri în 2006 îl arată cam așa.

De când e poza asta? (ultima cunoscută, datată 2022). După calitate, e făcută cu un telefon foarte vechi. Alfred Moses era mai chel (care aici avea un mic moț în chelie) și în 2018. Alfred Moses e născut în 1929, teoretic cu un an mai în vârstă decât Iliescu.

Ar fi multe metodele de a demonstra că el trăiește, cea mai modestă ar fi un scurt video cu el în pat sau poate doar audio vorbind gângurind despre un eveniment curent. Îi știm cu toții vocea. Sau dacă nu poate, măcar să miște un deget, să ne bată cu el în microfon?

12:42 Black holes are hypothetical entities. Of them, the biggest in our galaxy is thought to be at the center and it has several million times the mass of our Sun. However, from time to time, they discover big ones, 32 times the mas of our Sun, and really close, 2000 light years away.

They call them stellar because they think they were initially stars. Not like the one at the center of the galaxy which was formed by dust. How do they know it was not a star covered by dust? Dormant, stopped feeding. Why would a hypothetical dormant black hole stop feeding? Does it have diabetes?

3:12 I came from my walk, wanted to make some corrections in the last posts. 3 supposedly Spanish little girls came and started to hit the cable box. However i think one of them is a 20 years old who poses as a 10, which is not difficult for some Japanese. There was a red Nissan with the LPN PPY parked on the red line next to mailboxes. Pulled the blinds, went to cook and eat. 

4:57 Two hours later, the girls, the papy car are still there.

8:36 Tocmai m-am prins la o chestie. Site-ul wunderground are grafice inclusiv cu presiunea atmosferică pe următoarele zece zile. Portul Constanța este destul de aproape de zona seismică Vrancea ca să fie în aceeași zonă de atracție a lunii și soarelui, iar mareele, deși sunt foarte mici din cauza dimensiunii Mării Negre comparată cu cea a oceanelor și a mareelor terestre simultane sunt o măsură a atracției acestor corpuri cerești.

Atracția nu se exercită la fel în partea apropiată de lună relativă cu partea depărtată, din cauza diferenței de distanță. Forța gravitațională este invers proporțională cu pătratul distanței. Forța de atracție medie dintre masa totală a lunii și a pământului este 10 urmat de 15 zerouri, în tone forță.

Partea mai apropiată e atrasă mai tare iar Pământul se lungește, ca un ou, cu până la câțiva metri (mareele terestre și oceanice), deci se deformează.

Dacă se combină predicția presiunii atmosferice cu cea a mareelor, putem avea șanse de cutremure în zona Vrancea în momentele cu mareele cele mai ridicate și presiunea cea mai scăzută.

Începând cu 23 aprilie, sunt 5 zile cu maree ridicate și două cu maree duble (Soare-Lună). Avem deja presiunea până pe 26, este ridicată, stați liniștiți. Poate doar unul mic pe 24. Dar a plouat mult recent.

9:47 PDT Am început să cred că și precipitațiile pot avea un rol. Dacă de exemplu avem presiune scăzută dar 2 cm de ploaie (20 kg/m²), greutatea apei pe suprafața mare a zonei seismice, (4,863 km² sunt 4,863,000,000 m²) contracarează presiunea atmosferică scăzută și mareea terestră (care este însoțită de cea marină). (Presiune scăzută împreună cu umiditate mare declanșează automat precipitații).

Deci cutremurele se pot produce la presiune atmosferică scăzută combinată cu umiditate scăzută, precipitații recente scăzute (secetă) și maree terestră (atracție soare-lună), deci și marină, înaltă.

11:15 Asta a apărut după ce am scris eu cu bătutul în microfon, chestia de mai sus, nu? 9:47 PM Pacific Daylight Time, ora pe coasta de vest, este 7:47 AM ora de vară în România) Gropița singură dintre sprâncene, ceva unic ce nu am mai văzut decât la el. De obicei, au două. Da, nu știu, alunițele mai migrează sau se pot acoperi la machiaj. Da, politicienii și actorii (bărbați) se machiază tot timpul. Discret.

12:21 (17).  Not included which means the thing is only the vacuuming part. Wondering if it can be used for vacuuming the intake, after using spray valve cleaner. Yeah i know. Too expensive for the ocasional user. My invention is much cheaper though, @20 bucks.

Planet Google

How i started a history project and i ended into a geography/geology one. I was trying to gather some linguistic data using google earth, more precisely names of places around the known since Roman times Transylvanian huge gold resources nobody is talking about (anymore). Omerta.

It is known (by me) that Romans invaded Transylvania and adjacent parts of Dacia with the sole purpose of extracting the gold. Emperor Trajan financed two campaigns with hundreds of thousands of soldiers, a permanent stone bridge over Danube that ended in 164 years of occupation, and during that occupation they carried back to Rome some 200 tones of gold and many other goods every year, an era that started with suicide of Decebalus, the Dacian king, 123 days of celebration in Rome with erasing all debts or roman citizens to Fiscus (Roman style IRS). Since then all Roman economy was based on that gold, all they did was import, they got lazy and after the Goths allied with Free Dacians drove them out of Dacia, the Empire collapsed within a couple hundred years after attracting "barbarians" from all over the known world, searching for gold, from Scandinavia to Eastern China that started to pound at the gates of Rome until it fell. Here is a map showing the distribution of metals in Europe and then another one showing first migration known in history, the Indo European Migration.

Nowadays nobody will tell exactly how much gold is left in Transylvania.
 
But tonight i ran into some information i can't ignore and have to pass along to others.

A few weeks ago, maybe a month i started to browse for some free documentaries from the free streaming box i got from XFINITY (forgot the name sorry). And i saw one about the Universe. I watched it, an abundance of spectacular video effects and a Japanese presenter professor something.

Until i ran into some contradictions  that were too big for my curiosity and willingness to admire those visuals that i started to doubt with a frequency of once every ten seconds or so. The representation of black holes with the gravity lens effects while they (or the viewer) were moving across the Universe with other stars in the background. First. The black hole may be black but the event horizon surrounding them is not due to intense heat by friction of falling (cosmic) objects inside. If the swirl around the black hole known as accretion disk may be quasi bi-dimensional, like a solar system, the black hole itself will never look black even seen perpendicular on that disk because of intense radiation caused by the event horizon because of friction of all the elements just before entering it. And let's say the event horizon is less dense at the poles of the black holes, enough to make it appear black, or gray and blacker at the pole, but will they always present perpendicular to our point of view? Nothing like the also quasi bi-dimensional 3D presented galaxies scattered in images of the Universe? So i quit watching that, not before memorizing the way the heavier elements are produced in Universe. Collision of two neutron stars.

All the heavy metals on Earth including gold are coming from those and fell on Earth like asteroids.

There was a time in Earth's history when it didn't have water and asteroids were falling galore, and Earth was looking more like the Moon... The final phase of planet formation, when bigger and bigger chunks of rocks were added (falling due to gravity, already in place). Water came later, from comets, when the planet was cooled enough not to boil it, like on Venus.

Of course when those asteroids hit there was this smashing effect, due to speed, the asteroid, like we can see on the Moon, enters the planet and only some sort of crown of mountains remains. Like a drop of water falling on a water surface where we can see briefly a crown like structure which is temporary due to liquidity of water. According to this theory, the outer slopes of the crater will still have sedimentary composition, the inner would be mixed, and richest in metals would be center, under the deposits of sedimentary rock carried by water flows. And yes, volcanoes are the drops, whatever bubbles is left of the hot magma climbing up. Earthquake are thunderous freezing and thawing of bubbles of magma under influence of gravity of Sun and Moon and atmospheric air pressure.

So tonight i just started to work with web based Google Earth and centered it on the area of Romania where the gold is and tried to figure the names of places in several languages like Romanian, Latin, Sanskrit and then something else looking for linguistics clue for another project and like many times before i was looking at that map, it caught my eye: The Carpathian (Mountains) Basin is round. Could never figure out why. How can this this be explained by the Tectonics Plates theory. Solid plates that flow on semi-liquid magma bla bla that bump into each other at the point of collision of two opposite surface horizontal convection currents that turn vertical and sink to the bottom of Earth (at an excruciating speed of a few mm or cm a a year) to raise somewhere else etc. By plates bumping into each other mountains are created together with seismic areas. But there's got to be a limit of how narrow those magma currents are within the Earth. Can they be small enough to create an almost round relatively small, maybe 500 km diameter mountain chain? Then i remembered what i saw on TV about the gold (as all the other elements) being brought on Earth by asteroids. Most of it probably goes deep into the Earth at the impact, but some, mixed with "local" rock will stay at the surface and is found especially on the "crown" mountains, where there are no sedimentary deposits to cover it. Then i said to myself. What if the Carpathian Mountains were formed by the collision with such a gold and other heavy elements rich asteroid? But that would contradict all current theories about the formation of those mountains, however will not contradict my little theory about earthquakes. (You can distinguish the mountains in this image because they are dark green being covered with forests)
Then i said to myself. Can they be others? (by the rule: when there's one crater they will be one million). Bigger, smaller? Older? Partially wiped out by erosion and many other smaller ones, also visible on the map, that fell after? With northern rim made by Atlas Mountains in Morocco, the Pyrenees, Alps, Tatra, a branch of Carpathian Mountains, then whatever those mountains are in Turkey, on a circle that includes mountains in Africa, with center somewhere around Malta. Pretty much following  the distribution of metals seen in the map above from Wikipedia. 

Then i remembered, there are areas within Sahara desert (called basins) that are under the sea level, they were talks about cutting a canal, bringing water from Mediterranean Sea to form a sea in the desert, maybe change local climate, etc.. People forgot about those too. Could the Qattara depression, others, be proof that the crater existed.

How about frequency, there seem to be areas, like around Mediterranean Sea with more craters  than others. Maybe it has something to do with period rotation of Earth synced with some other cicles.
Then something else caught my eyes. The lines in the Sahara desert. There are all kinda lines in the desert reminding those seen on the bottom of the oceans, again, a novelty brought by Google Earth, but also... on the Moon. (not the borderlines like Madonna would say, of course).

How about the Hymalaians, don't they look to you like the southern rim of a crater, with signs of erosion on the right, and with the other rims eroded to the point they are not visible? Why the higher plateau? Maybe that asteroid came during a time when Earth was cooler?

Besides lines, on the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean there is a crack, that may be indeed created by two parts of the crust moving apart from each other, with continents kinda matching rims, suggesting they were one single part sometime in the past. But could be aksi shaped like this (with matching coastal lines) because of erosion and the Coriolis effect on ocean currents, never heard anybody saying anything about except once when i casually met with Gabi, my mentor during HS.

However, the spectacular one. Same thing here, cracks on the bottom of the ocean. But forget about those. It's the lines that are interesting. There are two groups that seem to converge to two single points. Can't help but mention. The Pacific Ocean is huge, if you look at the planet from this direction, all you see is... sea sea sea. (Could it had been created maybe by the collision of proto-Earth with another planet, some billions years ago, when orbits of the planets and asteroids were still stabilizing going into the resonance with each other the way we know about today). Click on any image to enlarge it to see more detail.

Pretty similar to those seen on the Moon, that are obviously caused by rocks being thrown sideways after an impact.
 
I hope i may have suggested strongly enough how big is the amount of gold in Romania's mountains or even underground in the circular valley of Transylvania, and answered other questions but in the end i have one of myself. Could they have come this with "Tectonics Plate Theory" only to cover that and that includes lying about all Geology of Earth and one million other things. Who cares, most people are interested about their daily lives only.

December 15

12:05 World's oldest, not made by humans however the Kufu pyramid was build in dry desert air, not surrounded by mountains and in the geographic or land mass center of the Earth, and that could have only been established by what we know as modern cartography which implies processing a huge amount of data. Add to that geometric perfection, smooth limestone cladding and gold pyramidion.

However i am positive that if the Great Pyramid was in a different climate, after being abandoned and loosing the cladding the normal people would have start using it for agriculture. Maybe cause its steeper.

12:20 физик. Trans Siberian Orchestra.

2:10 No man's land. Tribal Police, Local Police, Sheriff, State Police, FBI, ATF, DEA etc.

How come citizens (clowns) of other country can come here and dress and act as armed Police officers trying to stage a "self defense" murder? Just because i said EU is a mad house? They were four SUVs and four cops and four guns, i think is related more to what i wrote about bogus Einstein EM theory.

As i said, Buddhists got it all wrong, though they were warned about misinterpreting the mantra and not to use psychology which is dividing. Illusion of the five forces mean they were only one, a random manifestation of the void (that cannot be restored  by no one) and all others derived from it, not the whole Universe, world society and senses are an illusion and thus they can do what they want, burn the Earth, whatever.

3:57 No man's land. 7 weeks after. Drowning has contributed to the death of a Friend to you and me.

4:04 I said it many months before, the war in Ukraine is done since long time ago, the deal was EU and NATO against territory. Russians will accept one more NATO neighbor when they will be also tired of war. The reason is very simple. The territory now occupied by Russians had at least 10 million Russians in it and THEY did not want those in the EU and NATO because it could have smoothened out the relation NATO-Russia and THEY want to keep Russia an antagonist force in the world, just in case.

4:28 Just figured out something. Rasputin died a treefold death.

Twinkle Twinkle

Updated 4/03/23

I was thinking for a few days now at a couple of things i once wrote. One is a post about Earth Precession that stands my today's reading test. The post is valid in its entirety. 

The other is about instant communication between relatively distant solar systems.

What's important to know is during rotation against its axis the Earth wobbles. Which means an imaginary line going North South and through the center of the Earth won't be pointing always at the same star or it will only for a few hundred years out of an every 23000 year cycle. Bright or dim.

Nowadays, with a peak at around year 2105 the Earth's rotation axis points approximately at Polaris, a bright star, visible with the naked eye. Which means that if we build within in the Northern Hemisphere an observatory with an optical device that points at it, we will have in sight Polaris day and night on a circle with an apparent diameter of about 1.5 degrees, which will get smaller and smaller until year 2105 when Polaris will be quite stationary and then it will all start to revert. (All data gathered with a planetarium app named Stellarium which is available free for Linux or Windows).

This didn't happen since approx. 23000 years ago and will happen again after the same period of time that is a cycle of Earth's precession. But they were always smaller stars aligned with the shaft.

But if you read the first post i pointed to you will realize that we already have such a device in the Northern Hemisphere, for many thousands of years now. It's called the Great Pyramid with its shafts, especially the northern shaft.

Much have been written about the pyramids. And shafts. We have the so called Star-Shaft theory which says shafts have been built to align with certain stars. However for the northern shaft the star in sight always changes slowly and for the southern there is no fixed star like Polaris to point at (right now and for the next 150 years or so).
(BTW. The diagram above could be the true origin of the main masonic sign. When were the pyramids first explored by Europeans?)

Photons coming from the brightest star in the area that is aligned currently with the northern shaft are pretty well separated from background noise at least during night time which probably allows a higher bandwidth, with a peak again in 2105. Who knows what percentage of those are entangled with some from the same source that arrive simultaneously in other areas of space. But at least in theory if someone can catch those too in a way similar to how they are caught inside our pyramid, voila. There are enough premises for that to happen. Instant communications.

When we look carefully at the shafts and chambers of the pyramid, we can think at all kinda resonators, maybe delaying, slowing down, storing of the photons etc.

It is of course a device that was built with low tech means, but with enormous knowledge. My guess is an automated alien ship with a modest technological infrastructure cargo (the eye of Horus maybe) arrived and possibly modified genetically some large animals, making them intelligent enough to help build those. Maybe they build two different variants, a higher class of supervisors, that is the "superior" beings and the workers. Cause i refuse to believe they could survive or really want to travel distances comparable with that of Sun-Polaris.

If the northern shaft is currently open and enough photons from Polaris get inside (maybe at an angle and reflecting from the walls of the shaft) and all or parts of those purely geometric, passive devices are still functioning, we should be afraid. Cause some may control using those everything that's happening on Earth.

Through extrapolation we can think the other shafts have similar roles though i can't imagine any right now. Calibration maybe, with a very limited amount of time (minutes a day) those being aligned with one star.

There is of course a cure to it. (Or there was). Cover the d...n shafts with a black velvet curtain or a boulder or something at least until we can figure it all out.

24 hours later.

However. I don't believe it can work the way described above. First, i don't know if a star can be a source of entangled photons. Second, it looks like the shaft is changing positions from one star to another in that area over millennia. And the other party has to be at the same distance from source in order to receive the pairs of the entangled photons in the same time. Could they possibly have a relay close to their world but again Polaris has been within a few degrees of the Celestial North only in the last few hundreds of years.

The only way this could work is only if they installed a source in that direction. A small ship, no need to move around much, only enough to stay in Earth's axis. Possibly having enough fuel to do that and also maneuver to keep a constant distance between both parties, for thousands of years. Possibly a laser like source that sends entangled photons in both directions. Maybe the true meaning of the equidistance principle symbolized by the compass in masonic symbolism.

If we take into considerations the other clues on Giza Plateau, like the alignment of pyramids figuring the stars in Orion, the Elvis shoulder move, we can think at the shoulder of Orion and can figure the distance to that beacon. It wouldn't help us much since we don't have the means to travel there.

But if we install a detector in the shaft we might find out that we can see a bright source in that direction, that could be focused enough not to be seen from anywhere else. Don't know if it's visible, infrared, microwave, terahertz, whatever. Whatever wavelength travels better through space.

No they can't shut it down. They can communicate in real time only with the other end of the compass that is us. It shuts down when the fuel ends or they can destroy it but they have to send a ship that travels to that distance at relativistic speeds. Probably double the number of years from the distance in light years, maybe more.
