https://www.cnet.com/news/australia-threatens-social-media-laws-that-could-… https://www.afr.com/news/politics/national/social-media-chiefs-face-jail-te… Following the livestreamed New Zealand mosque shooting that left 50 dead in Christchurch, Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison is looking to crack down on extremist content on social media. Morrison will on Tuesday meet with Australian executives of Facebook, Twitter and Google to discuss extremist content legislation that would punish these companies' executives with jail time, the Australian Financial Review reports. Local internet service providers will also be present at the meeting. Details of the proposed legislation aren't yet known. However, Europe's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which applies to any company operating in the continent, showed that tech companies can change their global practices to appease local legislation. News of Morrison's meeting with tech executives comes on the same day that his government announced increased punishment for companies misusing user information. Maximum penalties for misuse of private data was raised from AU$2.1 million to AU$10 million -- or 10 percent of the company's domestic revenue, or three times the value gained from that misuse of data.

I have a physical copy of FBI malware, it is used to alter the mouse driver so that it is always interpreted as being pressed down. Not a defect with mouse, ran a Linux live distribution. Have disconnected the drives and reinstalled Windows on a new drive. Waiting for the FBI to attempt to pick it up, unless they truly have nothing to hide. Sent from ProtonMail Mobile

On presidents and death
by Georgi Guninski 26 Mar '19

26 Mar '19

From my blog: https://j.ludost.net/blog/archives/2019/03/26/on_presidents_and_death/index… Since the office was established in 1789, 44 persons have served as President of the United States. Of these, eight presidents have died in office, four were assassinated and four died of natural causes [1]. 8/44 ~ 1/5 so about one in five US presidents dies in office. In Bulgaria (Eastern Europe) there is another statistical trend. Of the five Bulgarian Presidents since 1990 [2] two lost a child while alive. (If you add T. Jivkov from socialism time they become three). So the probability of losing a child is 2/5 = 0.4 The conclusion is left as an exercise for the reader, because the margin is too small.

The proof of concept was provided to me by the FBI in an entrapment attempt against me to charge me with internet piracy. They are not conducting a legally valid investigation, rather they are conducting a campaign of harassment against me under color of law, and are using normal legal processes to provide a hint of validity in case they are sued by me. Because they are intentionally conducting a 25% legal investigation against me, they have to continuously invent new ways to entrap and ruin my life. The latest attempt still involves controlling all aspects of my life, but they are using informant-doctors to advise my parents to threaten kicking me out of the house and forcing me to sign a fraudulent IRS form designed by the FBI. The FBI has prevented me from obtaining any means of independent sustainance. The fact that I am still saying I am being harassed and the fact that the FBI is too embarrassed to publicly admit to their private gaslighting effort is evidence enough.

The US government is involved in black magic
by Ryan Carboni 25 Mar '19

25 Mar '19

There has been speculation that there is an occult nexus with the cow mutilations of the 80s, which involved bloodless killings of cows with seemingly random organs being surgically removed. It is odd that the Peggy Hettrick murder case in ‘88 involved surgical removal of some sexual organs. The crime scene was such that it is possible for someone to mistake the body for a mannequin. It is spectacular that the “FBI Behavioral Science Unit” participated in something improbable, they thought a high school student with no connection to the crime other than being seen in the area briefly was involved. It isn’t clear how he could have done it, but no doubt they have all learned about the Milgram experiment, only to miss the point. If they were ordered to do the indefensible, would they refuse? If their actions were questioned, would they defend themselves? Would they defend their institution? “Nations, like individuals, are punished for their transgressions.” Sent from ProtonMail Mobile

https://mchap.io/that-time-the-city-of-seattle-accidentally-gave-me-32m-ema… >Somewhere towards the end of the call, I asked them if it was okay to keep the emails. Why not at least ask, right? >Funny enough, in the middle of that question, my internet died and interrupted the call for the first time in the six months I lived in that house. Odd. It came back ten minutes later, and I dialed back into the conference line, but the mood of the call pretty much 180’d. They told me: >1. All files were to be deleted. >2. Seattle would hire [Kroll](https://www.kroll.com/en-us/default.aspx) to scan my hard drives to prove deletion >3. Agreeing to #1 and #2 would give me full legal indemnification. >This isn't something I'm even remotely cool with, so we ended the call a couple minutes later, and agreed to have our lawyers speak going forward. Sudden DDOS attack after attempt to stall for time? I tried writing an email about this before, but my Linux machine suddenly froze. Tempting to claim that naive implementations of IP stacks should be used for home users and authentication servers (with the rest using standard implementations). Journalists certainly should use a VPN, NAT isn’t a firewall, but it is pretty close. Sent from ProtonMail Mobile

Carbon Dioxide: Mankind's contribution to atmospheric CO2 so small it's not measurable - [MINISTRY]
by Zenaan Harkness 25 Mar '19

25 Mar '19

201903-Co2_Levels2_1_.pdf … --------------- Q1. What % of the air is CO2? … CO2 is less than a mere four 100ths of 1%! As a decimal it is 0.038%. As a fraction it is 1/27 th of 1%. (Measurements for CO2 vary from one source to another from 0.036% - 0.039% due to the difficulty in measuring such a small quantity and due to changes in wind direction e.g. whether the air flow is from an industrialized region or a volcanic emission etc) Nitrogen is just over 78%, Oxygen is just under 21% and Argon is almost 1%. CO2 is a minute trace gas at 0.038%. … the vast bulk of the population have very little knowledge of science so they find it impossible to make judgements about even basic scientific issues let alone ones as complex as climate. This makes it easy for those with agendas to deceive us by using emotive statements rather than facts. For a detailed breakup of the atmosphere go to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmosphere_of_Earth#Composition --------------- Q3. What % of CO2 do humans produce? … Nature produces nearly all of it. Humans produce only 3%. As a decimal it is a miniscule 0.001% of the air. All of mankind produces only one molecule of CO2 in around every 90,000 air molecules! --------------- Q4. What % of man-made CO2 does Australia produce? 1% of the 0.001% of man-made CO2. As a decimal it is an insignificant 0.00001% of the air. That’s one, one-hundredth thousandth of the air. That is what all the fuss is about! That’s one CO2 molecule from Australia in every 9,000,000 molecules of air. --------------- Q5. Is CO2 is a pollutant? … CO2 is a harmless, trace gas. It is as necessary for life - just as oxygen and nitrogen are. It is a natural gas that is clear, tasteless and odourless. It is in no way a pollutant. Calling CO2 a ‘pollutant’ leads many to wrongly think of it as black, grey or white smoke. Because the media deceitfully show white or grey ‘smoke’ coming out of power station cooling towers, most think this is CO2. It is not: it’s just steam (water vapour) condensing in the air. CO2 is invisible: just breathe out and see. Look at it bubbling out of your soft drinks, beer or sparkling wine. No one considers that a pollutant - because it’s not. CO2 in its frozen state is commonly known as dry ice. It is used in camping eskys, in medical treatments and science experiments. No one considers that a pollutant either. CO2 is emitted from all plants. This ‘emission’ is not considered a pollutant even though this alone is 33 times more than man produces! Huge quantities of CO2 are dissolved naturally in the ocean and released from the warm surface. This is not considered a pollutant either. --------------- Q6. Have you seen any evidence that CO2 causes a greenhouse effect? Respondent’s Answers: Most did not know of any definite proof. Some said they thought the melting of the Arctic and glaciers was possibly proof. The Correct Answer: There is no proof at all. The Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change (the IPCC) has never produced any proof. There are, however the following proofs that it can’t cause a greenhouse effect. • It is true that CO2 can absorb heat a little faster than nitrogen and oxygen but it becomes no hotter because it cannot absorb anymore heat than there is available to the other gases. This is against the laws of thermodynamics. All gases share their heat with the other gases. Gas molecules fly around and are constantly colliding with other gas molecules so they immediately lose any excess heat to other molecules during these collisions. That’s why the air is all one temperature in any limited volume. • Even if CO2 levels were many times higher, radiative heating physics shows that it would make virtually no difference to temperature because it has a very limited heating ability. With CO2, the more there is, the less it heats because it quickly becomes saturated. For a detailed explanation go to: http://www.geocraft.com/WVFossils/greenhouse_data.html The following facts show that even high levels of CO2 can make almost no impact on heating the atmosphere. 1. Glasshouses with high levels of CO2 - hundreds of times higher than in the air to make plants grow faster – heat up during the day to the same temperature as glasshouses with air in them. This is also true for bottles of pure CO2 compared to ones with air. 2. The planets Venus and Mars have atmospheres that are almost entirely CO2 (97%) yet they have no ‘runaway’ greenhouse heating effect. Their temperatures are stable. 3. The geological record over hundreds of millions of years has shown that CO2 has had no affect whatsoever on climate. At times, CO2 was hundreds of times higher, yet there were ice ages. 4. In recent times when Earth was considerably warmer during the Roman Warming and the Medieval Warming, the higher temperatures then were totally natural because there was no industrialization back then. • Water vapour is 4% of the air and that‘s 100 times as much as CO2. Water vapour absorbs 33 times as much heat as CO2 making CO2’s contribution insignificant. But like CO2, water vapour also gives this heat away to air molecules by contact (conduction) and radiation, thereby making the surrounding air the same temperature. • The Earth’s atmosphere is very thin so its heat is continually being lost to the absolute coldness of outer space (-270 C). As there is no ‘ceiling’ to the atmosphere, surface heat cannot be retained. The Sun renews warmth every day. --------------- Over the last few years Earth has had much colder winters due to very few magnetic storms on the Sun. These four increasingly colder winters have been particularly noticeable in the northern hemisphere where most of the land is. Because of this, the Arctic has re-frozen and glaciers that were receding are now surging due to the heavy snow falls. The Arctic showed some melting around its edges from the mid 90s to the mid 2000s due to the very high level of solar storm activity at that time. But as the Sun is now entering probably 2-4 decades of low solar activity, this is expected to cause global cooling. … Despite more than a decade of continual doomsday predictions of increasing temperatures and never-ending drought globally, the opposite has happened. There have been lower temperatures globally with greatly increased rain and snows over much of the planet since 2006. This has caused floods across most of Australia and most other counties, as seen on the TV news. This ended the global 10 year drought conditions from the mid 90s to the mid 2000s. There has been no drop in CO2 to cause this: in fact, CO2 has risen. There is no correlation between CO2 levels and climate. The reason CO2 levels have gone up a little is most likely due to the surface of the oceans warming very slightly during the later half of the century and therefore releasing a little CO2. (The oceans are currently cooling very slightly.) Mankind’s contribution to CO2 is so small it’s not measurable. … ----- Forwarded message from Gil May <gilmay97(a)gmail.com> ----- From: Gil May <gilmay97(a)gmail.com> Date: Thu, 21 Mar 2019 16:46:03 +1000 Subject: Fwd: Fw: Carbon Dioxide : Carbon Dioxide If you know of any poor little kiddies who have been brainwashed by the teacher's union before they took a Friday off to march, get them to read the attached and answer the quiz.
