#USD Public Safety

[davidson-eric]

The dollar collapse is happening NOW!"

The Storm is coming sooner than expected. All financial systems controlled by the corrupt government will collapse.

This crash will be felt on a global level, and many currencies, especially the USD, will be worthless.

Fiat accounts, savings and retirement accounts, mortgage, e.t.c will crash down and wipe off from the system once this event happens, Quantum Financial System is the savior.!!!

Convert every money in your possession to digital gold & silver backed coins and move them into the QFS ledger for safety . There will be a Global Reset. All banks and fiat exchanges will be closed, and there will be a lot of uncertainty & confusion. Cash will be worthless and outdated, and all bank accounts will be closed and crash to zero .

All cabal public banks will be confiscated, and foreclosures will be frozen, as will all public and private dept(mortgage,loans, credit, and debit cards).

Help me afford top surgery

Hi y'all, for those who don't know me, I'm a disbled, neurodivergent, trans man living in Cape Town, South Africa. I'm also a gradstudent in Astronomy currently finishing up my MSc, an artist and a poet.

In South Africa we don't really have many options to pursue transition, our private medical aids and insurance don't cover any of it, not even hospital costs as they classify gender affirming care as a cosmetic process instead of the life saving medical care we all know it is. Going through the public health sector is also not really an option as the waitlist is over 26 years long due to our national government again sees gender affirming care as purely cosmetic and only gives one spot for any gender affirming surgery per year.

In South Africa there's also still alot of stigma around being trans and trans people face violence and discrimination on a daily basis, so in addition to the usual benefits of getting top surgery, it will also greatly improve my safety

This is however very expensive, being a student I am on a very tight budget, living paycheck to paycheck already, trying to save up for a procedure that vosts nearly my entire yearly income is next to impossible, I also can't turn to my family in this instance as they are extremely transphobic

So the only option I have left is to try and crowdfund it. As I am South African I unfortunately can't use go fund me, so I'm using the south african croudfunding service, backabuddy, it does accept paypall and I-Pay

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated

So far I have raised:

R11 111.00/R120 000.00

$590.13/$6 374.00

(usd for convenience, conversion rate on 6 march 2024, $1 = R18.83)

Hello, I hope this message finds you well.

My name is Iman from Gaza, my life has been greatly affected by the war. Everything has stopped because of the war, our house was completely destroyed, and my family and I have been displaced more than 7 times. The situation is very bad for us. We cannot bear this injustice and fear. We have endured 11 months of suffering, humiliation, destruction and escaping death. No one asks about us. We are dying here in public. There is no way to survive now.

I am currently living in a small tent with my family, and I am working hard to rebuild my family's life from scratch and get out of the Gaza Strip safely. I need your help in donating to achieve my goal. And to leave the Gaza Strip for me and my family and reach safety. Any donation saves our lives 🙏🇵🇸💔🍉

Hello,

I don‘t post non-tolkien things often but I want everyone to see:

South Korean women - including my friends and sisters, and of course, myself - are suffering from fear of being a subject of sexually exploitative deepfake images.

In May, a deepfake chatroom targeting female students was discovered at Seoul National University, which is Korea's major university. The operator was sentenced 5 yrs in jail today. On 19 August, a Telegram chatroom active since 2020 with around 1,200 participants was exposed in Inha University. The perpetrators generated sexual deepfake images and AI voices of female students and cyber-bullied the victims that they would disclose the images and harm the victim's friends and family. Police have arrested some participants through investigation, but still, the operator remains unknown.

However, it turns out that there are numerous Telegram/Kakaotalk(main domestic messenger) deepfake porn channels all across our country.

A large number of operators are men in their 20s and 30s. Nevertheless, most of the exploiters are underaged (in the Korean middle-high school system, from 12 to 18 yo). Even the high school I attended is included in the revealed list of schools with victims, even though it‘s a girl's school (so we can presume that one of the teachers or male acquaintances of the students may have done that). The criminals made sexual harassment images of minor acquaintances, students, and even female teachers. This incident is affecting women of all ages.

My university is not on the list - yet. However, we are all afraid of the fact that our schools are not safe anymore, or, as always. The reported list of schools is unofficial so far, but you will understand what it means, to live in this kind of terror - you can trust no one. The selfie you took, the video you posted, and even the smallest portion of which you appeared in the photos the others uploaded on Instagram or any other SNS (even if you/they're using a protected account) could be the material of digital porn0graphy.

To make it worse, a Telegram channel of more than 900 military personnel who make deepfake images of female soldiers, even officers in their units, went public. The users even called the victims ‘munitions’. To enter the room, those offenders had to send the female soldier‘s ID photo, affiliation, rank, age, and even phone number to the operator. Likewise, male student-perpetrators of the incidents I wrote above asked for the female student's age, address, SNS ID, and phone number to the students who wish to join the channel.

And just for fun - the estimated number of perpetrators in this national crime is approximately 220K. For reference, a Twitter (which is now X but idgaf) user reported that there are 260K taxis in operation in Korea. I looked it up and found that there are 237,421 registered taxi drivers as of 2023. Anyway, so by probability, we encounter as many sexual offenders as we encounter taxis on the road and wow, we are living in a paradise of sexual criminals (oh, the total population of Korea is 50M and every man I know is repeating that old ‘Not All Men’).

By law, sexual abuse crimes on the internet - in this case, generating fake images and compounding porn with other images - are punishable by 5 yrs in prison/a penalty of no more than ₩50M(roughly USD 37,400). But most of the cases are not even properly investigated, and the criminals receive suspended sentences or probation in general. We are raging - but our country has failed us. But still, we keep our eyes on this uneven world and act for our safety.

I brought some international versions of articles from domestic presses below.

To anyone who read this to the end, thank you.

So, I’ve been thinking of this one meme tweeted by Elon Musk re: people’s reactions to the changes he wants to make to Twitter.

(see second post for discussion re: creation of meme)

And I can’t help but be continually shocked by how, on every level I can conceive, it just completely shows how clueless Musk is.

Every element of this meme is deliberately insulting to the Twitter user base, and you do not keep customers when you continually insult them.

I just - this is stupid, Musk. This is stupid, and it makes you stupid, and why can’t you accept that you’re the problem here when this is what you are trying to do???

I’m going to break this up into multiple posts, because this essay is going to be long.

Let’s start with what should be the most basic element for Musk, economics.

What this meme shows, reactions to two products/services priced at $8 usd, is a discussion of perceived value. What Musk is attempting to highlight is that a Starbucks coffee, which offers a limited time enjoyment (marked as 30 minutes for $8 usd) should not be perceived as superior to a month of Twitter account verification.

And this is just - I can’t even. There is no correlation between the perceived value of a (admittedly overpriced) coffee and account verification.

They fulfill two different needs for people. For most of the Twitter userbase, an enjoyable caffinated drink functions within the “Safety Needs” of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs.

And I am not exaggerating or mocking that.

These “luxury” items are less vital than the basic physiological need of “food,” but nevertheless fulfill a necessary need in relieving anxiety, pressure, and distress. They are reprieves from work, a reliable constant that helps defend against the grinding weight of everyday life.

A favored drink allows someone to reconnect with themselves and gain strength to face the world, and I repeat: this is not exaggeration. These rituals of “the daily coffee” and similar are modern versions of prayer in a society that deemphasizes the spiritual, a touchstone of peace.

Now, social media itself fulfills this exact function for many, many people - reading memes, news, and the escape of five or ten minutes of scrolling go beyond just the connection with friends. It is a ritual of stress reduction (even if in practice, much like caffeine consumption, it may end up having a net negative effect).

Relating paying a subscription for social media access to a ritual drink is, therefore, very comparable for how they function within the life of many in Twitter’s user base.

But this is where the perceived value needs to be considered: Is Twitter, in its current format, worth $8 usd a month in comparison with its competitors? When Tumblr and Facebook and multiple alternatives exist that remain free, could Twitter justify its service for this cost?

That is a question I cannot answer. But if I am uncertain how feasible a subscription for use remains valuable, I can blatantly say account verification - which is not required for Twitter use - fails to provide equal perceived value to a stress-reduction ritual drink.

Account verification is not stress reduction, not a security benefit, it even a belonging requirement.

It falls within Esteem Needs for the core population of Twitter users: an emblem of pride.

Now, this is a different matter for corporations and public personas: Verification is part of their ability to interact with customer bases (including fans) in a reliable manner.

Verification is significant for individuals such as Ryan Reynolds and Stephen King, and I shall leave the judgement of perceived value to public personalities to them and other celebrities.

But Elon Musk, by comparing Account Verification to what is often a deliberate security ritual, demonstrates a complete lack of understanding of the perceived value of Twitter functions to average, non-public users.

He is proving, in a very self-defeating manner, how unsuitable he is to providing a user experience a large segment of Twitter users find valuable.

And without non-public individuals supporting the platform, professional entities have no reason to use it either.

Economically, showing this meme proves Elon Musk is incapable of keeping Twitter a relevant social media platform.

So, my workplace is like an hour and 20 minutes away from where I live by public transport (aka the only mode of transport I have) since it's on the buttfuck end of Santiago, and I woke up at the time I leave my appartment when I'm already starting to run late. So you can imagine how fucking startled and stressed I was. :)

This was because yesterday was a legal holiday and I turned off all my alarms the night prior since my earliest one is set at 5 am, and of course I forgot to turn them on again last night.

Anyways, we all get off of the same subway station to get to work since there's very few ways to get here on public transport and none of us own cars, and it seems that having gotten up late saved me from getting robbed, as my coworker is pretty fucking shaken up because some asshole tried to rob her at the bus stop we all take just minutes before I got there.

Since I got my debit card info (and other data) stolen from me in mid June, during which I had about 100 USD stolen from me and was pretty relentlessly harassed by the fuckers for weeks, I've been praying to Lord Hermes for safety from thieves and I guess it's paying off. Holy shit.

São Paulo Funds “Cocaine Vaccine,” Setting Sights on Human Trials

In early June, São Paulo Mayor Ricardo Nunes signed an agreement with the researchers behind Calixcoca, a “cocaine vaccine” in development since 2015. A team at the Federal University of Minas Gerais had previously used public funding to demonstrate the vaccine’s safety and efficacy in rats. Now, with over $800,000 USD from São Paulo, it’s expected to advance to human trials.

Calixcoca is not intended to reverse cocaine overamps. Like other so-called vaccines for illicit drugs, it proposes to block euphoric or other psychoactive effects. If approved for humans, it would target cocaine in the bloodstream with antibodies that bind to it and prevent its absorption. In addition to crack cocaine, researchers have suggested an applicability for other illicit drugs. There is not yet a timeline for the proposed human trials.

There has been much fanfare about Calixcoca being a finalist for the Euro Innovation in Health award. But officials don’t appear be similarly interested in any harm reduction-minded questions about how the vaccine would work in the real world. How long it would be intended to last; how it might be affected by the consumption of other substances alongside cocaine; how the scale of harms it proposes to protect against measures up to the harms it has the potential to cause.

One particular area of concern is that being “immunized” to cocaine’s effects might push some people to use larger and larger quantities in order to feel those effects—and as a result increase their risk of criminalization, which may already have been very high, and their risk of fatal overamps, which was likely very low.

Browse the full report at https://www.credenceresearch.com/report/heavy-metal-testing-market

Market Overview

The heavy metal testing market encompasses a wide range of techniques designed to detect, quantify, and monitor the presence of metals in various matrices, including water, soil, food, and industrial materials. This market is essential for sectors such as agriculture, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and environmental safety. Laboratories, government agencies, and private enterprises utilize these testing methods to comply with regulations and minimize the risk of exposure to toxic metals.

As of recent reports, the global heavy metal testing market is projected to grow steadily over the next few years, reaching an estimated value of over USD 4 billion by 2028. The market’s expansion can be attributed to the rising concerns about food safety, increased industrialization, and the push for cleaner, safer water and environmental practices.

Drivers of Market Growth

1. Stringent Regulatory Frameworks: Governments worldwide are instituting rigorous regulations regarding acceptable heavy metal levels in food, water, and pharmaceuticals. Agencies like the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), and the World Health Organization (WHO) set permissible limits for metals like lead and mercury in consumable goods. Compliance with these regulations necessitates comprehensive testing, boosting the demand for heavy metal testing services.

2. Increasing Public Awareness: Consumers are becoming more vigilant about the quality of food and water they consume. Reports of contamination in baby foods, dairy products, and seafood have fueled a demand for transparency and rigorous testing. As a result, manufacturers are under increasing pressure to adopt advanced testing solutions to gain consumer trust and protect brand reputation.

3. Technological Advancements: Recent technological innovations in detection methods are also accelerating market growth. Traditional methods like atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) have been complemented by advanced techniques that offer faster, more accurate, and cost-effective solutions. For instance, X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) are emerging as promising technologies in the heavy metal testing space due to their non-destructive nature and ability to provide real-time results.

4. Expansion of Industries Using Heavy Metals: With the growth of industrial activities such as mining, chemical processing, and manufacturing, the risk of heavy metal contamination in surrounding ecosystems has increased.

2. Regulatory Discrepancies Across Regions: While there is a global push for heavy metal testing, regulatory standards differ across regions, creating complexity for multinational companies. A product deemed safe in one market may fail regulatory compliance in another, leading to logistical and financial complications.

3. Skilled Labor Shortage: The precision and accuracy required for heavy metal testing demand skilled technicians who are proficient with the latest testing technologies. However, a shortage of such skilled professionals in some regions could hinder the expansion of testing facilities and services.

Future Prospects

The future of the heavy metal testing market looks promising, especially with the increasing global focus on sustainability and environmental protection. Governments and industries are expected to invest more in developing advanced detection technologies and methods to address contamination concerns. Moreover, as industries like pharmaceuticals and agriculture continue to expand, the demand for stringent quality control mechanisms will further boost the market.
