instagram is annoying. people send me links to it, and it sends me right to a login prompt. then i have to tell them "i can't see your junk because it's sending me in a loop and i don't have an account"
weird dream last night. first i was staying in someone's house where there was a swimming pool with water containing amphetamines. then a government inspector came in and issued a citation to the homeowner for copyright violation because they had modified their firmware on the wi-fi or something.
creaking noises in the shop keep happening and waking me up

Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.

I told the office to tell them I'd call on Monday and not to give any information or answer a single question b4 that. This should be fun.
The moron from our office gave him my email address. How does this comport with not answering any questions or giving any information? I asked him if he was retarded or just stoned. Now I lose time to respond since it was just sent to my email. I'm gonna make a whole bunch of it his problem.

Escape the Corporate Cage Most people go through life in a trance. They are in a rut, a routine, and go through the motions of daily life without thinking. And then, life slips by.
For most people the joy of living is muted by the daily grind. They never find the time or the money to embrace life on their own terms. Some people, keeping an open mind, however, discover an escape route from the drudge of daily living.

In recent years, forest fires have become increasingly severe and frequent due to climate change, droughts, and poor land management. As researchers and land managers search for innovative solutions, biochar has emerged as a promising material—not just for improving soil health, but also potentially for reducing wildfire risk. But can biochar really help prevent forest fires?
Biochar is a carbon-rich material produced by heating organic matter—like wood chips, crop residues, or manure—under low oxygen conditions in a process known as pyrolysis. It looks like charcoal and is typically used as a soil amendment due to its ability to retain nutrients, enhance soil structure, and sequester carbon.
Biochar from biochar machine increases the soil’s ability to hold water. Moist soils are less prone to ignition, which could help reduce the likelihood of fires starting or spreading rapidly.
In forest management, excess biomass (dead trees, dry branches, and underbrush) acts as fuel for wildfires. Converting this biomass into biochar removes potential fuel while turning it into something useful.
When biochar is applied to soil, it can create a more fire-resistant layer compared to organic mulch or leaf litter, which are highly flammable. This could help slow down or even stop ground fires.
Instead of open burning of forest waste—which releases smoke and CO₂—biochar production locks carbon into a stable form that doesn’t easily combust, contributing to fire mitigation and climate goals.
Not a Fireproof Solution: Biochar itself can burn at high temperatures, especially if not properly quenched or aged. Its application alone won’t stop wildfires but can be part of a broader fire management strategy.
Cost and Logistics: Producing and distributing biochar on a large scale requires equipment, labor, and planning—often challenging in remote forested areas.
Scientific Uncertainty: More field studies are needed to confirm how biochar behaves in fire-prone ecosystems and under different environmental conditions.
While biochar is not a magic bullet, it offers a promising tool for fire risk reduction—especially when integrated with forest thinning, prescribed burns, and other sustainable land management practices. Its dual benefits of climate resilience and fire prevention make it a valuable ally in our fight against the growing threat of wildfires.

Stealer logs are collections of URLs paired with usernames and passwords, compiled with the help of malware. If malware infects your device, it can do things like log your keystrokes or record everything entered into forms in your web browser – building a list of your usernames and #passwords for various websites – and then send this data back to the person who controls the malware. This is where stealer log data comes from.

Operating a company in Singapore often involves adjusting your shareholding structure. Whether it’s to bring in new investors, facilitate a co-founder’s exit, or fund business growth, share capital changes are a key aspect of corporate management.
Operating a company in Singapore often involves adjusting your shareholding structure. Whether it’s to bring in new investors, facilitate a co-founder’s exit, or fund business growth, share capital changes are a key aspect of corporate management.
The two primary methods are issuing new shares or transferring existing ones. Both require strict legal compliance, accurate filings with ACRA, and the expertise of your company secretary or corporate secretarial services provider.
What Is Share Capital?
Share capital is the total value of shares issued by a company to its shareholders. In Singapore, ordinary shares are the most common, though preference shares are also an option.
Every private limited company must issue at least one share upon incorporation. After that, you can issue additional shares or reallocate existing ones, with all changes reported to ACRA (Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority).
Why Revise Share Capital?
Businesses modify their share structure for several reasons:
Securing funds from investors
Adding new shareholders or co-founders
Allowing a shareholder to exit
Reorganizing shares for tax or compliance purposes
Offering equity as employee incentives
The approach—issuance or transfer—depends on your objective.
Issuing New Shares
Issuing new shares involves creating additional shares to allocate, typically for investment or services.
Steps:
Review your constitution: Does it permit new share issuance? Any conditions? Most Singapore companies use the Model Constitution, allowing issuance with shareholder approval.
Secure approvals:
Pass a board resolution to propose the issuance.
If required, hold an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) to obtain shareholder consent.
Allocate shares:
Set the number of shares and issue price.
Collect payment, if applicable.
Update records:
Revise the register of members.
Issue share certificates.
File a Return of Allotment of Shares (Form 11) with ACRA within 14 days.
BizFile+ update (optional): Changes automatically reflect in your ACRA profile.
Notes:
Singapore has no minimum paid-up capital requirement, but you must declare the amount paid for new shares.
Unauthorized share issuance may lead to legal disputes or reversal.
Transferring Shares
Transferring shares means reassigning existing shares between shareholders, often during exits or restructurings.
Steps:
Check restrictions:
Pre-emption rights may give existing shareholders priority.
Review your constitution or shareholders’ agreement.
Prepare documents:
Complete a share transfer form.
Determine the transfer price, if applicable.
Stamp the form, if required.
Pay stamp duty:
Transfers incur a 0.2% duty on the higher of purchase price or market value.
File with IRAS within 14 days.
Board approval:
Pass a resolution to approve the transfer.
Update records:
Amend the register of members.
Issue a new share certificate to the transferee.
Cancel the old certificate.
File with ACRA via BizFile+.
Role of the Company Secretary
Singapore law requires every private limited company to appoint a company secretary within six months of incorporation. The company secretary or corporate secretarial services provider is essential for share capital changes, handling:
Compliance with the Companies Act
Drafting resolutions and EGM notices
Filing forms with ACRA and IRAS
Maintaining the share register and issuing certificates
Without an in-house secretary, corporate secretarial services are critical to avoid penalties, disputes, or compliance issues.

Additional Considerations
Timing: ACRA enforces strict filing deadlines—missing them risks fines or director liability.
Valuation: Share values must be justifiable for transfers or investor deals to satisfy IRAS scrutiny.
Tax: IRAS may review transfers for undervaluation or gains tax—consult a tax advisor.
Documentation: Maintain thorough records for audits or regulatory scrutiny.
Final Word
Revising your share structure in Singapore is manageable with careful execution. Ensure:
✔ Your constitution allows the change ✔ Approvals are secured ✔ Filings are accurate and timely ✔ Stamp duty is paid, if applicable ✔ Records are updated
Your company secretary or corporate secretarial services provider ensures compliance and protects your business. In shareholding, meticulous documentation is as critical as the transaction itself.
Corporate secretarial services are an integral part of business management and compliance, particularly in the context of corporate secretarial services in Singapore.

La détermination des Palestiniens, leurs immenses sacrifices et leur incroyable résilience ont brisé l’étroite alliance entre Washington et Tel-Aviv. La puanteur est devenue un fardeau pour l’entité et ses alliés, notamment Trump lui-même, qui a été obligé de le gifler au visage et à l’arrière de la tête en raison de son grand nombre de soldats, de son entêtement et de sa criminalité excessive.
Mes amis, un sujet qui me passionne, bien qu’il dérange certains, est celui des Khazars. Je reviens dessus, même s’il suscite la polémique. Ce qui m’étonne, c’est que peu de gens cherchent à approfondir sérieusement cette question, alors qu’il existe des écrits authentiques, issus de sources juives, arabes et perses, qui en parlent clairement.
À leur époque, l’islam dominait le monde savant, et les géographes arabes comptaient parmi les plus brillants explorateurs et chroniqueurs de leur temps. Plusieurs d’entre eux ont voyagé, observé, et mentionné noir sur blanc la conversion du royaume khazar au judaïsme. Ce ne sont ni des rumeurs ni des spéculations modernes : ce sont des récits consignés par des érudits respectés et indépendants, bien avant toute controverse contemporaine.
Voici une liste de géographes penseurs et d’auteurs ayant vécu à l’époque ou peu après, et qui rapportent ce fait historique :
Sources juives : Hasdaï ibn Shaprut – Lettre au roi des Khazars / Lettre du roi Joseph Judah Halevi – Le Kuzari Abraham ibn Daud – Sefer ha-Qabbalah
Constantin VII Porphyrogénète – De Administrando Imperio
Christian de Stavelot – Expositio in Matthaeum Evangelistam
Pape Nicolas Ier – Lettre à Boris de Bulgarie
Georges le Moine (Georgios Monachos) – Chronique
Ce qui est troublant, c’est que tous ces auteurs, issus de civilisations différentes, s’accordent sur ce fait : les Khazars, peuple du Caucase, ont bel et bien adopté le judaïsme comme religion officielle. Et pourtant aujourd’hui, on tente de reléguer cette réalité au rang de mythe ou de "théorie conspirationniste". Pourquoi ? Ces auteurs ne pouvaient être accusés d’antisémitisme ou de manipulation : ils rapportaient simplement ce qu’ils savaient, dans un âge où la science, l’observation et la rigueur historique prévalaient.

Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.
Democritus: Not from fear but from a sense of duty refrain from your sins.
Democritus: Many who have not learned wisdom live wisely, and many who do the basest deeds can make most learned speeches.
Democritus: Fools learn wisdom through misfortune.
Democritus: Strength of body is nobility in beasts of burden, strength of character is nobility in men.
Democritus: Neither art nor wisdom may be attained without learning.
Democritus: It is better to correct your own faults than those of another.
Democritus: Good means not (merely) not to do wrong, but rather not to desire to do wrong.
Democritus: Fame and wealth without wisdom are unsafe possessions.
Muammar Gaddafi: We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one. We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history.
Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.
Democritus: We know nothing accurately in reality, but (only) as it changes according to the bodily condition, and the constitution of those things that flow upon (the body) and impinge upon it.
Democritus: Medicine heals diseases of the body, wisdom frees the soul from passions.
Democritus: Immoderate desire is the mark of a child, not a man.
Democritus: Men have fashioned an image of Chance as an excuse for their own stupidity.
Democritus: In a shared fish, there are no bones.
Democritus: Education is an ornament for the prosperous, a refuge for the unfortunate.
Democritus: The animal needing something knows how much it needs, the man does not.
Democritus: Moderation multiplies pleasures, and increases pleasure.
Democritus: If your desires are not great, a little will seem much to you; for small appetite makes poverty equivalent to wealth.
Democritus: No power and no treasure can outweigh the extension of our knowledge.
Democritus: In fact we do not know anything infallibly, but only that which changes according to the condition of our body and of the (influences) that reach and impinge upon it.
Democritus: Of practical wisdom these are the three fruits: to deliberate well, to speak to the point, to do what is right.
Democritus: 'Tis not in strength of body nor in gold that men find happiness, but in uprightness and in fulness of understanding.
Democritus: He who does wrong is more unhappy than he who suffers wrong.
Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.
Che Guevara: Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.
Democritus: The first principles of the universe are atoms and empty space; everything else is merely thought to exist.
Bertolt Brecht: Lenin is enshrined In the large heart of the working class.
