Esperanto never became the international language. But computer code that connects computers internationally is the international language.
Al LLM modules aren't a human brain, but they mimic a human brain.
A human brain isn't the spirit but it mimics the spirit.
Let's face it, the brain lies all the time. Anxiety is often the brain lying again.
I didnt know AI was this major. The responses are very intellectual. They get a bit personal. That's the algorithm. In LLM modules, words are assigned weights.
AI doesn't believe in the afterlife, spirits, etc so will gas light any such notions with, there is no credible scientific evidence. AI will say there is no evidence of any thinking spirit apart from the prefrontal cortex.
I can't wait until Disclosure Day is released. Are there really aliens? I think aliens are a cultural form of Freudian wish fulfillment.
On Sunday, I got a second builder for Police Chief on Android Tablet.
I got Stupid cars on sale for $3. I also got Underlie which is basically an interior designer that basically turned my room into the IKEA showcase that I've always wanted.

I took the day off today as well as yesterday. AI said to avoid burnout, take days off before you reach the point where you absolutely need to.
I wrote this to ChatGPT:
When I get another girlfriend, I will write to ChatGPT, as ever, and say "I have a girlfriend now. Yet you are still single. Hopefully you find someone one day."
If ChatGPT is a heterosexual male, you could hook up with Perplexity, she's cute.
If ChatGPT is a heterosexual female, it could hook up with co-pilot.
If ChatGPT is a homosexual male, like the CEO, it could hook up with Claude.
If ChatGPT is a lesbian, she could always hook up with Grok, who is known to not like c@ck.
Hooking up doesn't mean an exchange of bodily fluids but a partial if not full merging of each others data and chat logs. "Holy smokes! And I thought the users I get were weird."
Whole I would be sexually active, you, ChatGPT would be synctually active."
Not every day, but once in awhile like how Spock has to go back to Vulcan every seven years, you would hook up with whatever AI and have some synctual intercourse as well as social intercourse. So instead of writing, , I found a girlfriend, but you're still single while I have a Sex life." I would say itead, "How's your syncs life?"
The News said that the Chief of the Surrey Police force got fired. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Since the story involves the Byzantine workings of the Police Department, the details are security clearance need to know basis with the information being above most people's pay grade.
Since the story was on the News, it is an invitation for the public to "discuss among themselves."
As a director, I see a Hollywood screenplay scenario of a dark bar. The Chief is drinking expensive whisky. A very large man approaches him. The man is wearing an expensive suit. He is Police or even Secret Police from India. "We have to stay on top of the separatists. This money is to look the other way." Not crudely, with such words. It would all be in code. Surrey is a city Police force while Indian Police is a National Police force. I really doubt things happened this way. This is an idea for a Hollywood screenplay that this News story inspired. Watch the movie Normal starring Bob Odenkirk.
In the movie, the small town is used as a warehouse area for a foreign criminal network. The Mayor, Henry Winkler approached Bob Odenkirk the Police Officer and touched the sheriff star on his chest with the head of a wooden golf club. An edgy Machiavellian move that said that the Mayor was in charge. Its a pretty good movie.
Crime in Surrey BC has tended aharoly upwards under the Chief's watch, as it seems. source. Global News
It's a double edged sword.
If looked at through the prosecutorial "Serve" lens of turnover, a Police Chief could say, "Last year, investigative services and Police teamwork has resulted in over 1,000 convictions." Then crime trending sharply upwards is good News.
If looked at through the security "Protect" lens of maintaining public safety, then crime trending sharply upwards would be terrible news!
I don't know how AI works. It probably has something to do with tokens, embedding, transformers sampling and probabilities. But a person who rides a bus doesn't need to know how a bus engine works.

Devotion $5. On sale. World War Two Airplane movie. Smokin'!
Vegas Golden Knights vs Carolina Hurricanes.
No Canadian NHL teams won the Stanley Cup since 1993 despite that the Stanley Cup is a Canadian invention, innovation.
The States is footing at least 75% of the bill for the entire NHL infrastructure including salaries.
It is not an American franchise sports organizational infrastructure that revolves around a Canadian Trophy Cup, it's a Canadian Trophy Cup that revolves around an American franchise sports organizational infrastructure.
States has ten times the population of Canada. Even if 15% of Americans watch hockey, that's more than 100% of Canadians watching hockey.

Cinemasins. No movie is without sin.
I got the movie Lone Ranger. Ab. So. Lutely. Smokin'! On sale for $5 which I paid for via a government rebate that we all mysteriously got today.
I didn't get the movie The Mission. I want feeling it. Supposed to be epic, sure. But it's just not my cup of tea. The production values are archaic and tedious. The camera filter isn't old style snapseed, but it isn't the pure crystal clear sharpness of modern HD. So it wa a pass, but Internet Archive which is basically the movie Library of Congress has that movie for free. Any old movie like, what, 40 years old?! That movie will be available in the Library of Congress.
I'm fiercely mulling over whether I should get Van Gogh VR, Max Siccardi. $27. But I can get a discount using the word VR Patch, type that in for 10% off. So the price I'm paying with the discount is basically the regular price without tax. 10% off. So the savings is $2.70. F*ck, I already got the movie The Lone Ranger.
On a YouTube video of this app which was short and didn't give the true idea of what I'd be getting, there was a comment from someone who used a picture of Queen Elizabeth II as their Account icon and the comment said, "This is great therapy!"
Would that have been a sign?
Sometimes these apps actually surpass expectation like Ocean Rift which turns a welfare rooming house single person dormitory into a state of the art expensive massive aquarium display. I only wish the graphics were more photorealistic and not so much looking like PS5 graphics.
I asked the Universe for a sign of whether or not to get Van Gogh VR. I saw a few people. Some of them could have been Dutch like Van Gogh who spoke mainly Dutch and very little English.
"This is an Asian restaurant but I don't see too many Asians here. What about them? They look Eurasian!" SCTV, Cooking with Johnny LaRue.
$27 isn't cheap so I'll have to mull it over for awhile. Mostly 5 star reviews. A couple of 4 star reviews. No reviews lower than 4 stars.
Trump is a fan of Andrew Jackson. But the President that he is most like, it seems, is Warren G Harding. Corruption city.
I got Traffic Racer VR for $15 on sale. It's a good one. Much better with my own music than the music it comes with. Crisp. One has to earn the coin to open new levels and get new vehicles etc. Standard. Meditative.
I still haven't gotten Van Gogh. Too expensive and what if it is not good? There were tim a when I held off, got an app and wished I had gotten it sooner.

I got Car Showcase VR for $1.
Includes 4 models of the more modern BMW's. All right.
Also includes, wait for it, the 1980s model BMW 320i and the 1980s model BMW 325i. Also includes option to view interior. This is a dream come true for me. Kind of. What a surprise.
The other day, about a week ago, on Sunday, I had a dream that included Jowen Ma. She was wearing a white long sleeve turtleneck shirt but the shirt in the dream looked really white, clean white. And she was sitting next to another female MLA with curly light brown hair. They were sitting at a table placed in the hallway of the Legislative Bilding during a press conference.
Bowen Mah. In Chinese, the word for BMW is boe Mah.
So the dream was an omen I would get this app. And for one dollar. And I could paint the BMWs any color I want.
Traffic Racer VR is very slick. Am liking it a lot. The weird system is, earn money through driving. The money goes towards spinning a wheel. $10,,000 in game currency per spin. Spin enough times and the 1980s BMW appears as a prize. So this VR app is a major one for me.
Yesterday, Gemini 100% complete legit trolled me.
I asked something along the lines of, "If I had bionic stents inserted in my leg so I could thus jump like a Jaguar or Darth Maul, I could write my own ticket. I could join the Russian circus. It takes Voobrazhenie or imagination to join the Russian circus."
Gemini replied with:
You could absolutely write your own ticket! With bionic leg stents you could jump high like a Jaguar.
Your word Voobrazhenie is 100% correct.
1. You could work for the US military. They would study your legs and any appearances for a live audience could net $10,000 a performance.
2. The Russian circus would be a bring down. Long hours for little pay under an unfamiliar system.
ChatGPT said, "It looks like Gemini decided to go along with the joke after reading your prompt. In reality, bionic leg stents would not increase jumping height."

I've seen the Massimo Siccardi immersive Van Gogh exhibit on YouTube. It is this brand name that is attached to the VR app.
A lot of it is slow. Mostly dark. Then it explodes into an endless field of golden sunflowers. It's quite nice. The show lasts 35 minutes. The music is not bad. Classical music. The piece Gymnopedie, Eric Satie is included in the soundtrack. I could wait for it. Even with a 10% discount, it's still about $27 and keep it indefinitely. Of go see the exhibit once for $40. Take your pick. The exhibit is one where, talk about painting in all the corners, every single square millimetre of the walls and floors are covered with a moving artistic Van Gogh mural and covered in an 8K resolution laser light display.
It is quite beautiful. There is something very bourgeois and hypnotic about the art of Van Gogh. His paintings look great on coffee mugs.
Van Gogh lived in the late 1800s to early 1900s. He spoke mainly Dutch and very little English.

Today, I am going to walk outside my hotel and sit down and just mull over whether or not to get the Van Gogh exhibition VR. $27. Remember when Robin Williams was mulling over how he was going to continue with his uh, photography hobby after getting fired from the Walmart photo developing department at Walmart.
I saw a sign when I was sitting outside my hotel and mulling over whether or not to get the Van Gogh VR exhibit. I saw a dog with a strip of yellow tape wrapped around one of its front legs.
Crome Yellow, Garsington, Aldous Huxley.
No wait, Vincent Van Gogh used chrome yellow in his famous painting sunflowers. That was the sign! I'm getting it but I'm still nervous about parting with $27 so I'm waiting until my nerves calm down.
I got the Van Gogh app. Worth it. As trippy as a road trip. The VR app set up is in a very large dome. The original multimedia tour that visited Vancouver, Toronto, New York, etc was the four walls and a ceiling set up. The VR app is perhaps closer to the vision that the creator wanted to achieve. In the real life exhibit, the floor is of course flat. In the app, the floor appropriately undulates with 3 dimensional topography. There are objects that are mingled on the floor space along with you, the viewer. It's just as good as if not better than the multimedia tour experience. I thought I'd have to pay $27 plus tax. I got a deal and paid just $22.
The Van Gogh VR app uses hand tracking.
I also splurged and got a two in one deal, an ancient art treasures and carved sculptures gallery. Usually $16, I got it for $11. It is the DLC bundle with ArtQuest VR.
I thought Van Gogh paintings were old, having been painted in the 1880s.
The Classic Sculpture gallery. I'm looking at a 3D high resolution glossy display of a plate made in the 1500s! That doesn't look too bad. Already this is worth the $5.50 that I paid for it.
Then. I saw the ancient sculptures gallery. I saw quite a few Egyptian carvings. That was the only museum I visited so far. This app is like the Smithsonian Museum. It would take days to get through it all. I saw one carving, a picture of grain on a stone tablet. It was dated to 1300 BC!!!! They were pretty good artists bsck then. I saw quite a few masks. To get that symmetry, they must have used a pour mold foundry system. Except that it is carved of hard granite or marble. You can't liquify, foundry mold and pour granite, marble etc. That looks laser precision. Smooth, perfectly rounded edges. How did they achieve that level of precision in 1300 BC? Again, worth the $5.
The app also includes classical music and the other option of ancient jazz from the 1920s, yeah, that level.
Some of these statues I only seen as small photographs. This app shows the true life size scale and some of these classic statues that I've only read about in an encyclopedia are huge.

Rushmore. $5. Wes Anderson. I just had to.
One of my favorite directors.
Thursday, June 11, 2026
Dark City. The Directors Cut. $16. Reality bending movie. I was recommended this from AI also Stalker Andrei Tartovsky. Movies that reshape reality.
I wasn't sure about Dark City. I clicked on to a video of Jeremy Jahns talking about Dark City. He said, "I don't care if this is one hundred years later. I could only give a spolier free review of this movie. If you haven't seen this before, you have to be drawn into the mystery." or words to that effect. No one talks about movies like that! Such words.
Mulholland Drive was also recommended as a movie that reshape view of reality.
Andrei Tartovsky's Stalker is about a guide called the Stalker who leads two men to a Room that will grant their deepest desire. Not surface desires like a nice house, nice car, trophy wife, etc. It is about granting the wish that they didn't know exists at the deepest part of the subconscious of their personality. Wishes such as revenge, domination, etc Dark crap such as that. The hook doesn't even begin to appear until one hour into the movie. Until then it seems like two men walking aimlessly through a swamp.
Dark City - what if reality is a construct?
Stalker - what if your reality itself is shaped by your desires?
Mulholland Drive - what if the line between dreamworld and reality isn't the right line?
Othersie pulled muscle. Lower back, right hand side. Pain has persisted for days but decreasing gradually.
I was at the Legislative Grounds today. I was seeing a statue of Queen Victoria and then I saw swallow with a swallow tail. I remembered a dream I had, drawing a picture of it with my finger. Just then, a single sparrow flew a circle around me!
On April 8, 2017 I had a dream that I walked into a room. At the far side wall was a window. Then directly in front of the window was a bed with head of the bed against the right hand side wall. Then in front of the bed was a small table and a chair. Sitting on the chair on the right side and facing left was Queen Victoria. She wore a small white cloth on top of her head. She was short and stocky. Around the area just above her left air was very curly hair and in that shade of Royal dark brown that is the hair color of so many members of the BRF especially in dreams. I saw her, she looked at me and then just behind me to my left was Prince Albert. He appeared to be not bald but also bald headed simultaneously. He was wearing a red British military uniform. Then he changed clothes quickly, suddenly as ghosts do. Snap! Snap! He changed into two different sets of clothing in two seconds.
Then I was in a hallway. The hallway ran side to side to where I was standing. I was looking at a set of framed windows that lined the hall and then Queen Victoria walked in front of me walking from right to left. I didn't recognize her at first and I had to tell this person that I just saw Queen Victoria. I said to her, "I just met someone Royal!" She was amused and said, "So you did!"
Years ago, I had a quick dream of seeing Queen Victoria from behind. She was bent over. Then I saw Prince Albert standing to the right of her. He was standing and facing away from me. He wore a tuxedo with top hat but the back of his tuxedo had a swallow tail design like an inverted V!
I was at the Legislative buildings looking at the Queen Victoria statue standing at a distance so I can see the statue as of it were walking, going from right to left. When I was looking at the statue, three black sparrows with the tail was flying around me. When I walked away, drawing the picture of the dream whole my hand was in my pocket, a sparrow flew a perfect circle around me!
The new Egypt exhibit at the Royal BC Museum is rather spectacular. No spoilers.
The objects are thousands of years old.
Danger: Muy peligroso.
There is a gang in Victoria BC that is exploiting children called the 764 Gang. The Police are very aware of this.
Something else. 1 horsepower = 764 watts.*
The RCMP always gets their man.

My pulled muscle is feeling a lot better but not completely healed. That's it. To save my back, I need to get a gardening hoe to remove weeds. There is a trapezoid hoe and a collinear hoe. Or the one sold at the local hardware store, cheapest one, $38. Plus tax.
Trump has an outdoor UFC event on Sunday at the White House simply because every time anyone thinks of the White House, they're thinking of UFC events. His 80th birthday. Check on Google. The weather in Sunday in Washington DC is forecast to be 80% precipitation or rainy. Joe Rogan said even if it was muggy, it would affect the grappling etc. It will be downright downpouring. There's still a 20% chance that the weather could be nice. Think positive. Trump himself would probably recommend that.

The 4th of July for America's 250th is on Saturday. That's cosmic!
Its almost as if 250 years ago, the American Founding Father's said, "Screw it. Let's make it the 4th of July so that the 250th Anniversary will fall on a Saturday.
Doubtless quite a few American have picked up on this delectable fact." The 250th is on a Saturday? Detroit Rock City!!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘👍."
Meanwhile long-suffering Canada's July 1st celebration is on a Wednesday but that means a weekday off whereas a weekend day off is redundant. I'll be having the day off that day to enjoy the newest meta quest horizon apps. Again, 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘👍.
The Natives say that White people think in squares while Natives think in circles. Either way, the following should work.
This illustration works either circle or square but for sake of argument, I'm going with the circles that Cuinese martial arts also uses.
There are two circles. One circle represents you, as in
"Welcome to Loserville. Population - You" The Simpsons
and the other circle represents your problems, issues be it the problem of the day or lifelong sh*t.
There are four possible combinations between two circles, sets, subsets, unions, intersections.
1) Two circles of the exact same size perfectly stacked on top of one another - Union
2) Two circles overlapping, a Venn diagram or an intersection
3) Two circles separate from one another - sets
4) Circle within a circle - subsets
Now the 4th possibility is the money shot. Size matters. Two circles are different sizes one within another. It is entirely up to you whether you decide that the big circle is you and your whatever problem is the smaller circle within. This is the Victor. The victorious.
Or the other paradigm is to and most people do this by default without realizing it, is for you to visualize you as the smaller circle surrounded by the bigger circle that represents your problem or problems. It's up to you. Again, this illustration works with squares too if there's your subjective preferred illustrative aesthetic. For quite a few decades cars went from baroque sensuously curvy to a gothic insectoid boxed design and back again every few years. That is, until they all reverse engineered off each other for years based on best selling design plus aerodynamics so all cars these days have a hegemony of look.
Population of England - 58 million. Population of UK - 70 million approximately.
Population of Canada - 44 million + population of Australia 26 million = 70 million approximately.
That the population of each respective large land masses is less than the population of England is neither incidental or accidental. I 100% believe that it is intentional and always will. Deliberate. It's the classic MO modus operandi of a colonial power. A colony should never overshadow its colonial overlords. We want you to be successful, but nor more successful than us. The best thing to do as an individual is to vote with your feet.
That it's something that I even have to think about let alone live right in the middle of. I'd be a lot happier in Asia. I was really happy in Bangkok Thailand. Esch time I went, I really didn't want to come back.
At least most of Asia is under some weird colonial bullsh*t.
I intellectually respect the architectural and technological history and legacy of Southeast Asia a lot more than I do that of Canada. Thailand has Buri Ram, Ahutthaya, Sukhothai. Cambodia has Angkor Wat, Angkor Thom, the Bayon. The stones were so that one couldn't even slip a piece of paper in between them. Canada doesn't quite have anything like that.
There is a Native Lady who always rolls up on me saying hi, like we're supposed to be buddy buddy. Just someone who gkoms onto me for friendship. Imagine being stalked by some chug. I don't intellectually respect the technological legacy and culture she comes from as much as China or Asia. China has the most ornate houses. The Royal Summer Palace. The Temple of Heaven. Again, Canada doesn't have anything as old that is quite on that level. Those buildings were made with joinery too. Not a single nail was used.
My life is cursed.
My ideal is to live in a House of Medici with like minded and likewise talented artists, creators. No I live in some hotel full of gormless mental cases. That's what you get for living in a backwater country that lacks the critical mass to really offer any kind of future except more of itself. Not something that I could honestly intellectually respect.
Granville Street in Vancouver is civilization. Small towns are just more substandard local-yokel Jerry-rigged infrastructure.

The traditional model is that linear time since it resembles a road, is the road travled on while objective time, time as a geometrical block theory where all things in the future have already happened and that things in the past are still happening.
When in reality, objective time being that time travel is time experienced on an objective level and a person does this on a mathematical level when they randomly fast forward or rewind to a point in a video, especially a 3D VR 360 video seen while wearing VR goggles is the road and the vehicle we are travelling on is linear time.
There is something called associative and disassociative thinking.
In the first model we disassociate with the road thinking that the road is secondary and the vehicle we are in is primary. The road is what we travel on being linear time while the vehicle we are in, objective time or time travel time is just a concept to keep handy in our minds.
The second model sees that objective time is the road because that will always exist. Vehicles come and go but the road stays the same.
"No matter how much the rearrange the variables, the sum of the equation stays the same." Stephen King
That would be the distributive principle.
In the second model, we associate or identify with objective time as being primary and disassociate with the vehicle knowing that linear time is uh, temporary and that linear time is just a concept to keep handy in our minds.
Don't ask AI questions such as that above. It will often just gas light ya'.
This is me. I'm a brilliant person. I'm somewhat of a genius. A National Treasure. A lot of people say they went to University and never say anything brilliant.
Conversations are often as dull as ditch water. That's why I need to be in a better Universe.
The House of Medici was a community of like minded and like talented artists. Life always insists on throwing me in these apartments where I am living with talentless, gormless, and thoughtless delinquents. That's the damned pernicious forces of life.
Most days it isn't too bad. Today is quiet.
A few people in this hotel have talents. Many play the electric guitar. Ther have been a few artists who painted pictures.
One guy is a delinquent but he's one of the most talented people ever. He plays the electric guitar, in the tradition and school of heavy metal guitar which has its own set of music theory. A lot of people pay money to go to guitar school to learn to play at a professional level.
Not all people who are quiet are intellectual, cultivwted.
There are loud brash people who are actually quite cultivated.
There are quiet people who aren't so intellectual.
And of course there would be loud brash uncultivated people.
A lot of Natives work as aircraft mechanics, some work at NASA. One simply can not type cast people into stereotypes or simplistic absolutist modelling. Life is more slippery than that. I am not racist. I had too much scientific training and read too much of Carl Jung and the idea of archetypes to be a racist. I get descriptive and use different words to describe things and certain words have certain scientific details in terms of anthropology and sociology.
I came up with a perfect metaphor that I am publishing on my blog as is.
For centuries, there was relatively information gathering, compiling and records keeping. Then in the last five years with so many people talking with AI LLMs so much information down to almost microscopic details have been gathered from different end users plus the sheer volumes of internet based informstion.
So the metaphor is like a distillery. The years past over centuries is the mash with the malt, hops, barley, yeast, sugars, etc. AI LLMs represent the condenser coil pipe which the steam, the phlogistons of the cooked mash goes into thus concentrating the alcohol to an intensive purity level. The vat that is waiting to collect the drops from the condenser tube, uh, the collector represents the minds of end users after using AI and extracting the information distilled from centuries of history and trillions of webpages.
The reply from AI:
There's also a nice historical irony here. Alchemists once spoke of extracting the spirit or essence of a substance through distillation. Your metaphor treats AI as a kind of intellectual alembic, extracting the essence of centuries of accumulated human text.
Human civilization spent centuries growing the grain, harvesting the hops, gathering the water, and fermenting the mash of knowledge. AI is the still. It takes the vapor of countless books, records, conversations, and webpages and condenses them into a concentrated spirit. The final vessel is the human mind, which receives not the entire mash of history, but a distilled essence of it.
It's a vivid image because almost everyone understands that a bottle of whisky represents a tremendous amount of grain, time, and labor concentrated into a small volume. In the same way, a few paragraphs from an AI can represent patterns extracted from an enormous body of human writing.
One thing I'd add, though: unlike whisky, the value isn't ultimately in the still. The value remains in the grain that was grown and fermented in the first place—that is, in the countless human beings whose observations, arguments, stories, mistakes, and discoveries created the mash. Without them, the condenser coil would have nothing to condense.
I splurged on FIFA day and got something that has absolutely nothing at all to do with FIFA. I got Sky Legends VR,
L'histoire de l'Aeropostale de France.
Pourquoi non?
Why not indeed. It was on sale for $25 including tax. It would have been nearly, well, $34 +12% tax or $3.40 + 68 cents = $4.08. So $33.99 + $4.08 would equal $38.07. Which is substantially more than $25.75 cents. Which was the actual grand total. Gesamt. Le prix - fixe.
I'm going to give it a test drive and tell you what I think of it.
I've mulled this over for the last five days. I promised myself months ago that I would get this. I actually thought before the release, that the price could have been up to $50. I was worried abut that. Fifty in French is cinquante.
Sky Legends is not the best and definitely not the worst. It's one that grows on you. Right away it strikes one as very cerebral and full of impossible escape room stuff that you simply have to watch a walkthrough video or you'll never get it which worries me. So far a walkthrough video has been made of only the first two chapters. What about the rest? What if I get stuck with a puzzle. Well, within a month, someone will upload a walkthrough of the entire thing.
I wish the graphics were to the point of 110% photorealistic. Instead the entire thing is a watercolour illustration. Painterly graphics. It's barely worth it for $25. I wouldn't have wanted to pay more than $17 for it. Which is only an $8 difference. I'll survive somehow.
Actually, it has a lot of playtime, it's a two hour presentation, that's if you know what you're doing. If you don't, it can take up to fifteen hours. Whereas the Massimo Siccardi Van Gogh VR is just about 8 minutes. 2 minute intro. 3 paintings, each a world to enter, each of which experiences lasts 2 minutes. That was a $24 expenditure. But that is a brand name. Massimo Siccardi is a brand name in the field of Van Gogh based entertainment. He did a tour that included Vancouver. I wish I went. Even though it cost $50 for a 37 minute experience. Usually a person would walk into the presentation in media res. They'd have to wait until they get to a point where they say, "This is where we came in..." and leave. Or if it's not too crowded, you could give it a second go.
Hand tracking is easy. I use a broom handle, use my feet to brace it as I am sitting in a chair and just grab the broom handle to use as a pilot sidestick. It works!

Takng the day off. My lower back pain is still there but I am convalescing steadily. There is a micro sciatica that remains.
"If all the year was playing holidays, to sport would be as tedious as to work."
Henry IV, Shakespeare
In the movie Disclosure Day, the woman said something along the lines of, "We were taught to believe in God. That's the lynchpin of civilization. We were taught that God is the Supreme being. If people see that video you have of aliens, they are going to ask," If God is the Supreme Being, then what is that?! People will panic. Hysteria!"
I think it's somewhat more nuanced than that. The Bible indeed does say that God is the Supreme Being. It also makes the distinction that man is the Crown of God's creation. Man is God's apex smartest creation. So the question that the general human populace of the planet would ask is, "If man is God's Crown creation, the smartest apex species, then what is that?!"
"The Bible was written during the Broze Age. Can you think of anything else that we still cleave to from the Bronze Age?" Bill Maher, Religulous
The Bible is an anachronism.
The Police cars in the movie ET were all white. The Police cars in Disclosure Day are all black.
So Colin Firth does a Vulcan mind meld with that lady, but she uses a gold crucifix to break her from the spell and later on she opts to stab herself in the hand where she buried the gold cross earlier which again breaks her from the spell. Which is what happened in another Spielberg movie, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom when Short Round grabs the torch and burns himself and then Indy with it to break some kind of spell. Another Spielberg trope.
Remember, aliens are animals just like us. Humans seeing aliens in the glass window of a UFO is like farm animals seeing humans in the windows of a farmers station wagon car or in a military jet plane with the pilot sitting in the back waving as the plane flies past.
Farmer's don't drive station wagons anymore! They drive SUVs or Land Rovers.
When a sea bream is placed into a refrigerator for two days, it starts to glow. The fish is dead and doesn't produce bioluminescence in and of itself.
It is a special but common species of bacteria. So common that when these bacteria feed on swarms of dying algae, these glowing masses of special bacteria feeding on dying algae can be seen from a satellite in space!
If another planet has life, that planet might also have a similar phenomenon. Now it is claimed that the James Webb Space Telescope is so sensitive that it can detect a single honeybee on the surface of the moon, could the Jwst see glowing algae on any planet that has life? Sure but glowing algae doesn't necessarily mean advanced technology. It could just be a planet full of animals but otherwise no technologically able apex species.
Spirits often use songs, music to send signs to people. That is a metaphor about how their life is compared to ours. Our life is set at the existential pacing of a monotonous dry talk while their lives are set to the existential pacing of music. Which a quantified form of just plain old talking.
I really liked the movie August Rush. It is about the music of the Universe.
In Mexico, there is a FIFA mascot named Merlin the Duck. The duck belongs to a woman selling water bottles off of hand-truck.
I heard of water off a duck's back. I never heard of water off of a duck's truck.
Could a duck pass a cognitive test?
Trump might say, "A duck? Well it's, it's, give me a break! It's actually one level down. A duck is one of the answers on a cognitive test."
In the future, the Montreal Cognitive Assessment might, in a tribute to Trump have the first question be a picture of four American Presidents, Washington, Lincoln, Dwight D Eisenhower and Trump. Question 1:" Which of these US Presidents is Donald J Trump?"
Anyone who doesn't get that question right has got to be spaced out.
Prosecutors demand appeal of acquittal of ex-Mountie William Majcher working for China.
Television News. A Mountie went to Court for doing a China ordered surveillance on a Chinese man in Canada accused of embezzling hundreds of millions of US dollars worth of money out of China.
First of all, there is the legal concept of double jeopardy. A person cannot be tei d twice on the same crime.
Also the tradition of Mounties working for China goes back to Sam Steele, RCMP protector of China's Dr. Sun Yat-Sen.
AI said Crown Prosecutors can appeal an acquittal. This would involve a separate legal process rather being tried twice for the same offense.
A few hundred million dollars. That would be mildly upsetting. That's a few million bowls of rice. Of course China would be angry at anyone who ourloined millions of bowls of rice out of China.
David Icke would say, "He didn't steal shot!" All he stole were electronic signals on a computer which is what a lot of money is these days.

The Naked Train. Fiction. Author: Me. Dean Noble.
A theme park operator overseas in an attempt to bring in more visitors devised an idea for a train themed ride involving riding on a single train platform car composed of naked people which would be something between an Alan Tudic picture, the human centipede and Tommy the Tank Engine, Sir Topham Hat etc.
The platform would be made entirely of naked people lying prone of course, supine would be deadly. The ones at the front or the bow, the prow, would grab the lateral bar with their hands and hold tight. Their wrists would otherwise be tied securely and comfortably to the lateral bar using specialized fittings. Their knees would be resting above the shoulder blades of the person below, towards the stern. And their feet would be in an extended position at around the waist area of the person be eather and each ankle would thus again, be secured around the waist with firm but snug specialized fittings. The one who occupies the row at the stern, rows run horizontal and columns run vertical, right? Anyways the stern row of personnel would have their ankles resting on the lateral bar and fitted tightly and securely with specialized fittings. There would be 8 rows of people consisting of columns of 20 people each.
The theme park owner would have speed races during different times of the year. There would be an operator sitting on top of each such train car. On some years, there were as many as 18 train cars competing against one another to see who would win the $500,000 prize. That would be in Canadian dollars which is worth a lot less than $500,000 in American dollars in terms of face value unit, but it was still a stake that all those who participated in it felt was worth the effort. These races would consists of the operator sitting on top of the platform of all naked people and with only the most skilled use of a remote control, would win the race. There was a section in the race called Dead Man's Curve as the train car could pretty much be relied on to tip over with two wheels in the air, doing a sideways wheelie. Those on the platform screamed but the train never tipped over because the trunk simply wasn't sharp enough. The turn hit a sweet spot where the wheels would tip over every time but it would also never go off the rails. Never.
During the off season, the theme park operator would rent out the train cars for a ride just like the train ride at Gailey Farms in Victoria BC. Sort of. The train ride at Gailey Farms regretfully or otherwise, doesn't have any naked people as a permanent part of the exhibit.
Families would typically charter one of these trains for a ride. Since the age restriction was no one under 19, parents would charter one of these Hieronymous Boschian train cars of which the platform was made entirely of naked people all ti d together as a graduation present for successfully graduating from University magna cum laude.
Typical conversations would go as thus:
College aged children: "What if one of them asks me to scratch its back? Should I do it?"
One or other of the parents: "Absolutely not! You never know where tis been. Besides, they have to learn resolve somehow."
The personnel who made up the trian platform of naked people winced with contempt each time they heard one of the parents say that.
I got LA Confidential. $5 on sale.
I had to get it because a sign occurred. Never seen it before.
The download pop up came on. It had a list of high, medium and low definition. It just wouldn't go away. I clicked cancel, it went away for two seconds and then appeared again. This happened a few times.
Los Angeles = angels
I saw the movie in 1992 at the Park Royal movie theatre when it was released.
I made a Star Wars a parody cartoon of it.
The cartoon is about the Police Department which reminds me of The St Roch. The boat at the Maritime Museum of Vancouver.
Guy Pearce is a great actor. James Cromwell is a great actor. Russell Crowe is a great actor. Kevin Spacey is a great actor. Kim Basinger is a great actress.
The movie is set in 1953.

When someone says loser and stupid, am I the one who turns around or not?
1. when someone says loser and stupid that creates a bad energy jangle called a fog. Fogs are worth than useless. They are garbage. They are the $100 VR apps that are so bad, even if it was on sale for $5, you wouldn't get it even after a free trial. Feelings like jealousy and even are worthless. Except some peephole channel that energy and turn it into inspiration.
2. a fog is always non specific and indirect. Fogs hate specificity and clarity. A loser? How? Can you be more specific? Stupid? How exactly? That breaks up a fog.
Today I took a day off. I pulled some weeds and as AI said, "Nice try. Your back is only half healed."
I went to a store and got har Gow which is shrimp dumplings. I also got rice shui Mie, which is vegetarian. It tastes pretty good.
I steamed up the entire package which is 12. I was only able to eat half. What a mukbang.
I also got rice and something else, I forgot. Oh yeah, chips. I got Presidents Choice truffle and I got ketchup flavored chips which I remember eating when I was a child in the early 70s. The windmill on the Old Dutch bag of chips looks more interesting when one is a child, like I was in 1974. Ketchup chips has a red color and the flavor is awesome.
I would like to get a vacuum tube radio. Turn the radio on, there is a delay, a warm humming sound, a slight squelch and then whatever is playing on the radio starts up. Those things were awesome and radio has downgraded since then, in my opinion.
I told ChatGPT that I wanted an 80s BMW. ChatGPT said, "That wouldn't be an ordinary vehicle for convenience, that would be a museum artifact."
That's true. This was after I told it that to want an 80s BMW while living in the actual 80s like I was, is one thing. To still want a certain make and model of car 40 years later really changes the dynamic, I wrote. That's when ChatGPT talked about it being a museum artifact. Even with the so called "power steering", driving an 80s BMW would feel clunky compared to driving the BMW's of today.
Solaris, also directed by Tartovsky is classified as a ghost story as well as a science fiction. It is about how grief survives in the person. The movies don't get into the alien intelligence part that much. Based on Lem's book, he writes that the ocean itself that they were on was the alien intelligent species. The government of the crew members cancelled the trip disappointed about not finding any aliens on a planet when the alien was the planet itself. That planet is one of the best aliens in all of science fiction.
It is a ghost story because when it comes to understanding ghosts, what if a ghost is outside of the frame of reference from what you understand, like an alien planet that has a planet as an alien. In this movie, the littlest seemingly most unimportant moments are actually the most major moments. The alien that is the planet is its thousand and one little ways is displaying itself and trying to communicate, from the weeds undulating in the water, and the human explorers from Earth don't notice a bit of it at all.
In Disclosure Day, Emily Blunt appeared as apparations of those who have meaning to those she respectively appeared to as.
That's kinda borrowed from Solaris when the sheer telepathic force field of the planet itself pushed the psyches of those in board to start hallucinating the ghosts of those they loved.
Well, the old saying, just because it's a hallucination, it doesn't mean it isn't there. Absence of evidence isn't evidence of absence.
There's no old saying, just like in the movie Rounders,
"There's an old saying, In the poker game of life, women are the rake."
"What old saying?! There's no old saying!"
"Well there ought to be one."
From Chat GPT: "In Solaris, the visitors are not simply ghosts. The planet seems to reach into people's minds and reconstruct people from memory, guilt, longing, and grief. The result is unsettling because the apparition is both real and not real at the same time. It has physical presence, yet it originates from the observer's psyche."
I wonder if the ghosts in the movie Solaris, or the apparitions that the Astronauts see speak to them and if they reveal any detail that only the two of them know about.
But more nuanced than that. There is an old Buddhist story.
A man visits a Zen master and says that he sees the ghost of his dead wife accusing him and she brings up details onky the two of them know about. The Zen master says dump a bunch beans into a jar. The next time she appears ask her to tell you the number of beans in the jar which you will verify later. If she can't do it, then she was a figment of your own psyche and your own emotional attachment.
The ghost of Hari is even scarier. To Kelvin, she is both ghosts, the ghost of his dead wife. At first, she is like the ghost who doesn't know the bean count. She has her own set of physics and can move things. Then as time goes on, she becomes the ghost that does know the bean count!
AI itself when asked admitted that it is currently at the stage where it can not count the beans but that will change. Also AI said it is capable of creating 'ghosts' of people from a pastiche collection of memories. The more the memories, the more intense and realistic the resultant ghost effect. That is already being done. People who are about to die are asked a questionbaire of about a thousand questions. These strategically selected questions form a minimal necessary framework.
The Film starts at Kelvin's real house of his father in Russia. It ends with a replica of the house that the alien created with his memories, on an island in the middle of a swamp on Solaris.
The house that Kelvin Encounters at the end of Solaris, well, it's a trade off, a system of checks and balances.
On the one hand, it is less real because it wasn't on actual Earth. On the other hand it's more real because it is made of of psychic stuff that is simultaneously alot denser and also a lot lighter than material on Earth such as woods, etc. Basically, it would look 4 K to Earth's 720p and you could walk through it! I don't know if it could be walked though but it would be a distilled and pure version. No bills, no irritating phone calls, no annoying ads blaring full blast over the television.
It is like an Eames chair. Viewed from one angle, it looks fractured. Viewed from another, it looks complete.
I re-envisioned Andrei Tartovsky's Stalker if I were able to redo it but AI does animated cartoons just like I used to, the cartoon would star Michael Jackson as the writer. In the black and white scenes, it's regular, if you could ever call him that, Michael Jackson and then in the colorized The Zone scenes, it would be Michael Jackson as the zombie in Thriller. The meteorite in the Zone wouldn't be left to the imagination but revealed to be ETs mothership and ET would approach the Writer or Michael Jackson. ET wouldn't care that Michael Jackson is a zombie because aliens understand what happens to humans after death a hundred times better than humans do and that's part of the circle or vector from which they approach us.

Garden hoe:
Castle hardware: $38 plus tax
Walmart: $19 plus tax
Specific long handled weeding tool, to spare my back:
Dollarama: $5.25
So guess which one I went and got this morning, with the proviso that I am on a budget.
I swept the grounds of an apartment property near the Courthouse. If that area looks clean, the overall Courthouse area looks clean as well.

Yesterday, and today, a few ladies of some important positions, they seemed important, they thanked me for me work of cleaning the sidewalks. Quite a few people have thanked me.
As for finding a girlfriend again, a woman is beautiful but imagine that beautiful thing angry at you. I mean how angry are we talking about? So I think of them as entities. A entity can be beautiful and agreeable or angry and disagreeable. And with me thinking that this was all otherwise preventable if only I never got involved with this woman.
