You'd need fundamentally different hardware to emit radically different bands of radio waves. It's the difference between radio transmitters, light bulbs, and x-ray machines. If radio transmitters changed frequency randomly then radio communication wouldn't work.

So, back to my hardware point then...

What's really being installed? I made a point earlier that there's a huge push to get around the weakness of the signal pushing through walls that doesn't make sense as the proposal of heavily equipping buildings everywhere can't even remotely be feasible (even if you get companies to pay for the building installations out of their own pocket). While it's obviously a profit thing, it would also make sense that to avoid future costs, they start installing devices to help future improvements to be possible on the cheap.

Unless you want to get really crazy and convoluted and say its a mass evil conspiracy to have us all self-install and pay for equipment that will kill/control us. You wanna talk deep end? That's deep end, and even I'm not ready to pull that trigger.

... It's well established science. You know, the knowledge that lets us build cell phones and stuff in the first place lol

I'm not arguing what's been proven. I'm arguing what's yet to be proven, and can you say you really know exactly what the devices are outputting at all times and that there have been no modifications whether with the physical hardware or a change in frequency (if the devices are capable of that?).

I remember when the virus thing hit, cell companies started activating empty unused satellite hardware to expand the reach of cell signals and keep speeds running efficiently for the increased activity from everyone staying home all day. I certainly wasn't aware they had it, I doubt many others were either.

Youre mixing up efficiency with muscle use. Thinking is working out your brain muscles, just like weightlifting works out different body muscles.

Using a tool prevents use of this muscle. Its like lifting the bar with that automated machine where youre getting help, instead of a pure bench press. Sure you can do more reps, but its not actually working out the muscles the same way.

Also this.

Thinking is not weightlifting and standing around doing nothing is not training. Does using a calculator make you weak at arithmetic? Or does it let you get a hell of a lot more done because you're using a goddamn tool for what it's built for and can now work on something else?

Standing around doing nothing is resting and relaxing, which is important for building any muscle. That's a basic thing we are all taught. No recovery, no gain: just permanent or severe damage as a result.

Memory also works better in the long term when you have time to rest and absorb information and let it sink into the subconscious (this has been proven in studies). Edit: So yes, using a calculator can make you weaker at arithmetic. We use the calculator because we only have so many hours in the day, but if you can run the numbers yourself your brain is probably better off for it. Basically I recommend "measure twice, cut once" as a reason for calculators, but you can't measure twice if you're not using your brain.

Nothing wrong with using a tool, but over reliance becomes a crutch that makes you helpless.

That's not how any of this works

http://www.ncradiation.net/NonIonizing/Images/EM-spectrum.png

Ionizing radiation causes cancer from breaking down DNA molecules. Non-ionizing radiation doesn't have enough energy to break down molecules.

I understand all that. But I believe you're operating on the idea they're telling the truth. I was coming from a standpoint of them lying to us about the waves.

I always would like to believe they're telling the truth and that you're right that 5G is harmless and people are freaking out over nothing.

But, hope for the best and plan for the worst seems wiser, I think. Also, I find it hard and somewhat foolish to just summarily dismiss all the concerns as fear of change.

Yes, for the better. It lets people outsource things which means they can direct their attention to something more important. Complaining about this is the same common fallacy "smart" people make of "I don't have to write it down, I just remember!" It's wasted effort that could be better spent.

Sounds like a way of weakening the brain. The brain is a muscle like any other, you only improve it if you use it. Try outsourcing your weight lifting and see how that goes for you. If you're wondering how you would outsource that, it's simple. Use leverage to your advantage to lift heavy objects all day instead of doing it yourself. Your gains will be drastically reduced...and that's if you gain anything at all.

We do understand that the frequency that 5G uses doesn't have enough energy to ionize molecules. Ionizing radiation is what causes health problems.

My problem with 5G is that it can't penetrate walls whatsoever

Yeah, I remember reading about the wall thing, but my understanding was to get around this they pushed for more locations/devices to be present throughout buildings. That seems like a costly undertaking that I don't fully understand the push for.

I grew up without a phone in my hand and didn't start carrying one until about 7-9 years ago and have only been using a smart phone for about 6ish years in that time. I can honestly say the phone was more or less thrust upon me by society since you can't connect with many without it.

It does indeed feel like the phone became a physical manifestation of how we choose to connect with others...probably won't be long until it dominates every other aspect of the old world as well. We can already see how quickly we are using it for economic purposes. Probably won't be long until we're all exclusively buying and selling what we need/want from our phones and it becomes the only way to track your money (okay, that theory is a bit far fetched, but if you know anything about NWO, you get what I'm saying).

I prefer life without a phone. I don't like people being able to contact me whenever they feel like 24/7. Especially when it comes to my coworkers and more importantly my boss who feels entitled to contact me before work to ask me to come in early (I had to absolutely shut him down when he had the audacity to ask me to come in on a scheduled day off). I also routinely blow my coworkers' and even my friends' minds when I don't feel beholden to answer every text or phone call at any given time, especially when I'm working. They ask all the time why I don't answer the damn thing while I'm on the clock. I explain that while I'm on the clock, I'm on company time and use of the phone for personal reasons is unprofessional. I get mixed responses on that answer (bosses tend to love it though, since they can relax knowing I'm not distracted at work).

This is one of the more unfortunate parts of living in what is essentially Babylon rebuilt. We all become a little too connected and as a result we have also become more cut off from each other than ever before. Information is an addiction and being trapped inside each other's heads bars us from experiencing how we would all act if we were really participating together in the real world and seeing THAT together instead of virtually what is inside another's mind.

Which is a shame, since I'm a writer and I really like living in worlds of text...

Bleh.

That should be my choice. It feels like someone taking $20 out my wallet then come up to me and ask if they can borrow that $20. Im not cool with that. Its the principle.

lmfao, that's a really fucked up way to view that. Seriously. They notified you BEFORE you purchased. Whether they wait at the beginning or end makes no difference. The hell is wrong with you?

20% is considered an average tip and most businesses push that as the standard. There is usually a lower tier option or a custom option if you don't like that.

Just because you believe 7-10% should be the norm does not mean the rest of the world has to.

Also, they didn't sneak it in, they asked before you confirmed. If they were sneaking it in, you never would have been notified at all or at any point.

I think you'd be hard pressed to prove that any parents' love is unconditional rather than just that the conditions for it to end have not yet been met.

Agreed. Proving it is a pain in the ass since most of it is anecdotal evidence and in many cases, all you can do is accept the word that it is.

But, I'm sure you could find some concrete examples (lol if you think I'm going to put that effort in though).

But our society has not done itself any favors in helping to develop maturity levels either. In fact, in many ways, the older generations have done a lot to help stifle younger generations from growing up more than they've done to help them.

Yeah, classic depression.

And depression is a hell of a drug, let me tell ya. I've been battling that most of my life, but the past 4 years crippled me extra hard when my life went sideways.

I'm not here to say I had it worse. I'm here to offer the same advice of therapy because I can speak from experience that it does work to a degree, and while it may not be a magic cure, it can indeed help get the ball rolling.

Back when it first started to cripple me, I managed to have 3 sessions with a therapist for free. It helped me out in ways I can't describe. Even if you have to pay or seek out some kind of charity that might be able to help you out, I highly recommend it.

If you're wondering why it didn't stick, it's honestly because I couldn't afford to pay for anything past those 3 and on top of that, life went from sideways to being through the floor. It was all a personal level of non-stop rolling incidents that just kept hurting me. I think things would have been way different if I'd had access to that throughout the duration of all the shit.

I have pulled through in a big way in the past year, but the only advice I can offer if you're trying to tackle it alone is that depression is a mindset, and until you're ready to actively change that mindset (and trust me, you'll know when you really want that change...it just kind of clicks like a switch in the brain if that makes any sense) you probably won't get anywhere. Even if you do want to change, you might not get anywhere if you don't find a way to put the work in...I had to do things like remind myself to lean a little more on people around me instead of trying to be so independent (which in some ways can actually make it worse).

I hope something...anything...in this post helps dude.

In DND terms, what is the difference between intelligence and wisdom?

Intelligence is a combination of accumulated knowledge and ability to logically reason and create solutions to a problem. A smart person can rig a trap or solve a puzzle with ease. This is typically better in the short-term.

Wisdom determines application of knowledge. The higher it is, the more likely your application will be effective. Wisdom also aids ones awareness of the situation and people around them. A wise person can determine who is telling the truth or use past experience to navigate the long-term.

My favorite way to put it is:

A smart person can determine when they have the right of way to cross the street. A wise person will still look both ways before crossing, even if they have the right of way.

Some places in the south are indeed getting the essential tag. Florida is one example.

But mostly it's spread out in various counties. Smarter counties are closing churches. Good luck getting some of the backwater places to listen though.

The interview was definitely handled professionally. The subtext behind the anchor's response is what people are discussing, and it seems a little disingenuous to redirect the conversation anywhere else.

This. Also, why didn't they ask him more questions? I understand they have time constraints, but we know they could have kept going because he seemed to have tons to say.

As a brit, from time to time i stumble across american news on the internet and just feels like those news presenters, a lot of the times are trying to put on a show, more than providing unbiased news.

Im not sure if the accent has a play in it but if you watch some british news, you'll see the difference immediately. Its the professionalism.

There are interview shows in UK like those 'morning shows' that behave somewhat like this woman here. They ask questions that lean towards their agenda and when they dont get the response they want, they seem a little pissed off. But on proper news shows like the BBC and ITV, the presenters and interviewers are generally unbiased.

Several news networks in America put in the fine print of their company that they are a "news entertainment network" meaning they're not there to provide genuine news with just facts. They are providing what's happening in an entertaining light, so you get bogged down more in opinions than facts. Basically, even in America, the news is designed to sell you something...in this case, ideas.

In general, Trump's claims of "fake news" stems from that particular point of knowledge he has as a business man.

Unfortunately, he goes overboard and makes the mistake of calling it all fake news for anyone that doesn't present facts that make him look good. So when we do get honest journalism, it is quickly discredited by people since they aren't trying to sell something.

America is insane. The rest of you should run while you can.

THUG1 had ehhhhh levels and the mission gameplay itself was worse compared to THPS4. It only gets held up so high because the story was good, but everything else new about it is ehhhhh imo

I dunno about that. THUG 1 had improved mechanics and made chaining combos easier...also, finally getting off the damn board was a much welcome addition that should have been in 4 imo, because some of those levels would have been more fun if you had some control over your starting point for combos.
