#GeorgeCarlin was a living legend, what he had to say is so much true, until now. Today most of our languages (I know 2, German and Engliish) has become softer, people don't want to hear those direct words anymore, like "shell shock". You don't see a docotor in a hospital anymore, you visit the medical advisors in a wellness center (maybe a bit wrong, but you got the idea).

Or how about names: Do you name your child #Kyle when the sex is clear and is a boy? Why no #Eddie anymore? Or why no shithouse, why "comfort room" (he didn't talk about it, never that word "mention"!)? You are going to piss or shit there, right? Or take a shower or bath?

And speaking of child names, can we dump these #unisex names likes #Alex ? If the child is a boy, give him Alexander, if a girl it's Alexandra but never Alex. There is no unisex in genitals, unless you want to be an eunuch (sex-less human) or in chromosomes, XY or XX.

But I don't want to speak about dicks and ... er,no. Not cunt as by definition that's degrading. So how about pussy? No, that has a double meaning, same with vagina (sword's vagina).

So let's not get into there as you might know, I block those who call me insecure in "my" heterosexuality.

So let's get into watching what he has to say on the National Press Club conference:

As you know #FOXNews is being called "alt-right", this one was clearly so much true about today's modern "feminism". I really felt touched by her words and I'm not right-winged (and not radical left-wing) at all.

I found the video at "Feminism Debunked" and I know it is about today's modern "feminisn". And oh, she wrote on her website 7 reasons why she is not a feminist and the first is, that she loves men.

I know this comes controversal as most people blindly believe that feminists are loving men and are the "good women" and "all should be feminists".

So to say it from my point of view as a heterosexual man, I'm NOT a feminist because I don't hate myself. And I don't hate women.

Rudolf Fissner auf der #TAZ:

Ich möchte in keinem Staat leben, in dem das Blockieren von Demonstrationen erlaubt ist. Mit Antifa hat das nichts zu tun. Blockieren von Demonstrationen ist autoritärer Sch.

Genau das ist es, was mich so sauer aufstoßen lässt, wenn es um die #Antifa geht. Nur um es mal ganz deutlich zu sagen: Das (Blockieren von Demonstrationen, deren Aussage einem nicht in den Kram passt) mag Otto-Normalbürger nicht und versteht es auch nicht. Damit sorgt welche Gruppierung auch immer genau für das Gegenteil (beim Otto-Normalbürger), was damit eigentlich erreicht werden sollte. Hier in diesem Falle sind es die "fundamentalistischen" Christen, die die "Bösen" sind. Sie haben halt eine andere Meinung, auch wenn sie der der "Feministen" (nicht wirklich echte) nicht entspricht. Versucht doch mal eine sachliche Diskussion zusammen, also so einen Bockmist zu bauen.

Kleines, passendes Zitat am Rande:

Bei Hühnern heißt es Omelett, bei uns Menschen Abtreibung.

Nur um es klar zu stellen: Ich bin sehr wohl gegen Faschisten, für solch Aktionen, egal von wem oder gegen wem habe ich aber auch etwas.

My goodness, I just finished watching "Ice Twister 2 - Arctic Blast" and it was really a cold blast I got from it. Class-B? Far from it, maybe Class-J or K. I watched many other #Class-B movies and even some from Uwe #Boll are worth your time watching, like Rampage 1+2 (but not really 3). Or how about movies like #TheyLive from John #Carpenter?

Sure these movies cannot be compared to high-budget movies, also known as #Class-A movies as they (B) have much lesser funding available and struggle to get good actors and actresses on board. And even sometimes they - like Independance Day 2 - feel almost like Class-B movies.

But let's get back to IT2:AB. It has almost no connection to the previous installment and more felt like a much cheaper off-shoot from the original Ice Twisters movie. So what's the punshline?

IT2:AB gives you a cold (bad) impression of a what-could-be-done-much-better movie. Bad #CGI: very bad explosing of the airplane, too fast retracting ice in the end scenes, only to name a few) and for the German lip-synchronized version: bad voice acting. I don't know about the English movie, but I would be surprised if the original acting and "one-liners" would feel better.

All in all: Not worth your time!

PS: I don't know what causes the delay on start.

Eigentlich lief es ja seit Jahren gut, dass ich andere DNS-Server als die von #Vodafone eingestellt habe, z.B. auch meinen Server seit einiger Zeit. Nun aber ist es eben zweimal hintereinander - und das war nicht das erste Mal - vorgekommen, dass urplötzlich die #Namensauflösung nicht mehr funktionieren möchte, oder soll.

Ich war gezwungen, dann einmal die Standard-DNS-Server (also von Vodafone) zu nehmen, die Einstellung zu speichern, meine DNS-Server ("Andere DNSv4-Server verwenden") auswählen und schon klappte es wieder.

Liebe anderen #Follower da draußen, kennt ihr das Problem auch? Ich glaube, das bettelt hier nach Kündigung. Was ich nicht kapiere ist, wieso ich dann überhaupt noch in der Router-Software (Fritz! Box) dies abändern darf, wenn es doch eh nur zeitweise klappt?

I have observed here on my Friendica node, that the worker queue gets fuller and fuller over time and I was really wondering why is that so. I checked the queue table and found no real issue with it.

Then I checked throught the PHP code and also saw no logic mistakes (related to this, e.g. in Friendica\Core\Worker class).

Here are some typical lines at the start of my investigation:

2021-02-20T23:24:16Z worker [NOTICE]: Load: 4.34/50 - processes: 409/4/115055 - jpm: 6/4/8 (0:1, 20:0/6, 30:0/6, 40:3/115452) - maximum: 4/5 [] - {

"file":"Worker.php","line":782,"function":"tooMuchWorkers","uid":"343740","process_id":17119}
2021-02-20T23:24:20Z daemon [NOTICE]: Load: 4.36/50 - processes: 409/5/115057 - jpm: 6/4/8 (0:1, 20:1/7, 30:0/7, 40:3/115452) - maximum: 4/5 [] - {
"file":"Worker.php","line":782,"function":"tooMuchWorkers","uid":"163d4b","process_id":17116}

As you can see maximum: 4/5 and even maximum: 6/5 is present. So I checked at the code where the 5 is coming from and I found it here:

$queues = DI::config()->get("system", "worker_queues", 10);

$maxqueues = $queues;

So I checked that configuration entry in config table and ... Bingo! There it is: 5. I then disabled debug log again (not to have the hard drive flooded with debug log) and restarted it.

Since then the daemon is working happily on the queue. So as it seems to me, there are indeed more queues (spawned PHP processes) needed to work on a public Friendica instance. And this one here has only a few local users while one (me) is most of the time active.

As you might have noticed, I have been called insecure about my #sexuality while I'm very much secure about (I know what I want and I know what I don't want). From today on, I will block all these idiots, calling me insecure about my sexuality or that I have an "odd opinion" about it.

The block list just got longer:
- Judging me about my feelings, relationship, penis size or whatever they want to frustrate me with (while it doesn't frustrate me at all)
- generalizing men while they don't like it when women are being generalized
- Calling me a homophobe, transphobe (see first reason)
- Calling me a sexist, "enableist" or "schwurbelnd"
- Or talking anything bad about my romantic relationship or "preference" (#sexuality is not a choice, obviously we #straight people have there a choice according to some radical fedizens)
- to many cats/dogs/whatever-animal pictures, quoted memes and other delusional views, huge red flag

Why they do it, because isn't it fun to mess around with complete strangers over the Internet? Yeah, isn't it!

Sorry for my English audience but I decided to make this episode in German language.

Die erste Aufnahme mit Webcam, gerichtet auf mich und leider war das ganze Layout durcheinander. Keine Ahnung, was #OBS dort durcheinander gebracht hat. Ungefaehr 7 GB Aufnahme in voller Qualitaet (kommt so direkt aus OBS heraus) sind leider vergeigt. Das Spiel war die ganze Zeit nach rechts unten in die Ecke verschoben und das moechte ich keinem anbieten.

Diese Episode war mal zur Abwechselung auf deutscher Sprache. Mittlerweile habe ich wieder vergessen, was ich dort alles gemacht habe und meine alten Episoden sehe ich mir nur selten selbst an. Also viel Spass!

Zum Download

PS: Der Web-Player kann offensichtlich nicht Matroska-Videos abspielen. Ich habe daher mal den Download aktiviert, uebertreibt es aber nicht, 10 TB Datenvolumen sind schnell aufgebraucht und dann darf ich zahlen.
