1:11 Every once in a while i see in Romanian media informations of things i never knew. Trying to harness the energetic potential of a mountainous area in Romania while keeping the environmental impact to a minimum, they dug, over a 10 years period, 50 km of tunnels. Other similar works are well known to the public, like the 38 km tunnel under English Channel.
Nowadays they are building new galleries for Bucharest metro using autonomous machines.
All in a country with not so much financial and economical power, like today's and yesterday's Romania.
One could question himself, what if they already have tunnels covering most countries, made of course in secret.
We know that Musk, others are trying for years to build demo versions of a project called "hyperloop". Vehicles that could travel in vacuum tunnels at speeds greater than sound. But that project is not going anywhere fast enough. What if is kept in that stage intentionally, just to delay public's perception about the possibilities of those.
To be continued.
12:47 I just want you for my own...
4:44 I got my first smartphone very late... Call it paranoia, whatever. I know what computers can do. Smartphone are basically computers with towers connections, wi-fi, bluetooth, name it. A touch display, a mic and a speaker. Multi-core, fast processors. Android, which is a breed of Linux as operating system.
Had no choice given by Frontier, the provider at the new address, who was delaying installing a landline by 2 weeks after i moved in 2015. So i rushed to Best Buy and bought a couple of cheap, 4 GB prepaid HTC phones, powered by then Virgin Mobile. For convenience, went with them ever since. 35 dollars a months, unlimited talk and text, up to 6 Gigs of 4G data. Barely any room for any app.
How Virgin Mobile turned in the end to Boost Mobile, and Australian firm, it's a different story you can read it here.
On 5th i forgot to... re-boost (that's how it's called prepaying for the next month). Next day i went to the computer and tried to pay, but the bill was now 38. It was then when i got mad and decided it's time to look for a new provider, with an unlocked phone, after i saw commercials with plans starting at 15 dollars (Mint), others. First, i tried to unlock the phone with Boost, but they wouldn't cause the phone though it had more than 12 continuous months of service, had the service interrupted a few months, the number changed and they kept me asking for the old PIN "to prove" and i could not remember.
I don't need much data, just an occasional browsing for a site when i'm not home. So decided to start using (again) my Google Voice number at home on wi-fi and wait until i get something reasonable.
However, after a few searches, i found a plan again at... Boost, with 100 dollars a year (8.33 a months) and 1 gig of data. So i went back to my own vomit and ordered the plan. I said to myself. I won't have to deal with them for a year, if i succeed. But i didn't.
I don't deal with MEID or ICCID things very often so i'm not used to. Didn't realize they didn't check the MEID of my phone when i signed up, just paid and waited for the SIM card.
SIM card came yesterday with USPS (no tracking number though i asked for) and i put it in the new unlocked MOTO 7 i bought on Amazon for 150 bucks (a 2020 model) and tried to activate it on myAccount i created when i paid. However, after typing in lots of MEID and ICCID digits, a number of times, it would not activate. In the end it was Angela who realized there was a 5G mark on the SIM card. Then i remembered seeing something at Boost Mobile "the largest 5G network". (I hate
5G as i hate wi-fi, smartphones and the fact i have to use them). However, my phone was a 4G (within the last few month Boost kept warning about not supporting 3G anymore and customers should buy 5G instead. What happened to 4G? 4G LTE speeds satisfy my needs and both our phones where 4G capable).
So with money paid, i tried my options. There was nothing on MyAccount except my payment history.
Live customer support was closed for the day. There was a chat option, not working on the computer (in the end, it worked on my phone today but it was just a bot). Left it for today. This morning i called their customer support number. First a female voice, trying to get my number. I don't have one. Forwarded to a male voice, which shut my conversation when i said i don't have one. Then i tried my old trick, pressing 0 until i hear a human voice. It worked, at first. A guy named Alex listened to my story, asked again for MEID and ICCID and said "Good news, your phone is compatible" and then, "Bad news, we don't have this SIM card in our system". The SIM card they shipped through USPS and came yesterday, without verifying phone's MEID and without a tracking number. In the end i forcibly gave Alex the order number (first screenshot), he asked for a valid calling number, he said he would "escalate" and that was the last i heard from him, just looked on Google Voice call history, there is no call back from him.
Then i tried to use menu options to try again and activate the phone first with the automated system, then with a person. After giving again the MEID number and ICCID number several times, one willing person told me that i should give up and try to dispute the amount with the bank, which seems to be the only valid option right now. They wouldn't spend as much as paying people to handle returns, let the banks do it. After waiting one week and wasting half day today. Crediting their business with 100 dollars for weeks which seems to be one of the purposes of the scam (fraud).
Today afternoon i went and tried to talk with a guy in a physical Boost store in Beaverton. The man who looked again like a Japanese chicano, "would not understand". First i asked for a SIM card compatible with my phone. 10 bucks. I said, ok, but will it work? Do you have a plan? he asked. I said yes, and he said, what's the number, and i said i don't have one cause the phone is not activated (like i said when i asked for a SIM card), and we went like that for about half hour and i gave up and left. And at one moment, he grabbed my phone to look for the order number (first screenshot) and after handling my phone for while, he said We don't have anything to do with this.
5:19 It's not what they do, it's the synchronization. Today it was Wednesday and the blowers came and though it was raining for a century now, there are still dry areas under the stairs, and places like that and again they blew dust on the deck and sill of the door. So after i started to feel it in my eyes and throat, I went and wiped the dust, lots of red dust came in the water when i rinsed the rag, and exactly when i was done i heard the "man" upstairs climbing the stairs, coming back from his car, releasing more dust from the stairs. Like he did last time. Like he does when i go to cook something, he comes and squeaks the floor above, me, starts the washer, etc.. Wakes me up the second i fall asleep. Home for 5 days in a row as i can remember.
7:49 Numirea lui Florin Roman, o nouă stângăcie a unui președinte de dreapta. Să fie oare ultima?
Sugerat de cine. Oare în România toți miniștrii buni pleacă devreme iar numai cei care acceptă sugestiile rămân? De aia merg treburile așa?
De ce e bine ca în asemenea funcții să fie oameni impecabili, tocmai de asta, pentru a nu putea fi șantajați. O mică verificare, colegii de partid, înainte de numire?
10:57/8:57 Cineva pe fază? S-a oprit
roata.
11:14 De fapt asta vroiam să spun mai devreme și n-am terminat. Mahabharata,
poemul epic indian, descrie o serie de evenimente care sugerează un război global pe care mulți le consideră istorice (reale). Cu toate astea, încercările de demitizare și plasare în cronism istoric pe care le-am văzut până acum sunt de o naivitate dezarmantă. Există totuși niște elemente de la care se poate porni într-un studiu serios, făcute praf de niște neprofesioniști în diverse forumuri. Dintre, ele, aș vrea să amintesc.
Vimanele. Unele schițe rămase până la noi sugerează secțiuni prin rachete.
Avioane de luptă hipersonice. Acest basorelief cu o vimana în mijloc arată un conflict între indo-europeni și o rasă cel mai probabil provenind din Australia, care a fost izolată de restul omenirii timp de zeci de mii de ani, numită în Mahabharata "șerpi".
Astika.
Astika a fost un copil care a salvat rasa
șerpilor de răzbunarea lui Janamejaya. Sunt opinii că ar fi la originea națiunii aztece din America de Sud.
Rețea globală de tuneluri. Rama a fost
răpit și dus printr-un tunel în America de Sud.
Svarga loka. Loka în sanscrită înseamnă ceva similar cu loc în română sau location in engleză. Avalon (ava loka), un loc mitic, ava în sanscrită însemnând departe (away în engleză), un sufix găsit în multe toponime din România. Svarga loka în Mahabharata era un fel de rai, locul în care trăia zeul Indra, și se poate identifica cu Sverige (numele Suediei în suedeză).
Piramidele. Piramidele par a fi construite cam în perioada războiului de la Kurukshetra descris în Mahabharata, purtat cu tehnologii primitive. Piramidele par a fi ansambluri multifuncționale care pot fi și arme bazate pe manipularea ionosferei, a zonelor seismice, construite cu știință foarte avansată dar cu tehnologia epocii de piatră, ceea ce arată construcția lor în urma unui conflict devastator care a distrus tehnologia existentă.
Vârsta oamenilor. Și în Biblie, și în mitologia indiană se spune că oamenii, poate înaintea acelui conflict care a contaminat toată planeta, trăiau până la 1000 de ani.
Azi și de multe ori, m-am întrebat. Dacă a existat acea tehnologie avansată, unde sunt
urmele? Cât timp durează până la dezintegrarea completă de exemplu a unui automobil? De ce multe din resursele minerale ale planetei sunt intacte? Poate că populația pământului în acea perioadă nu a fost așa de numeroasă ca acum. Poate că era o civilizație ecologică, bazată pe știință foarte avansată care nu folosea intensiv resursele și nu polua ca cea azi. Poate acea cutie neagră a fost plasată în piramidă după acel mare conflict de către șerpi care erau mai avansați și recuperată de Napoleon în timpul campaniei din Egipt, când piramidele erau în mare parte acoperite de nisip. Poate că rasa șerpilor era de fapt niște alieni (probabil condamnați trimiși în exil) care au venit să exploateze resursele pământului,
trimițând de exemplu aurul înapoi pe planeta lor originară, folosind acceleratoare liniare de particule.
