How can anyone say trump loves this country? He hates or is 
indifferent to most everyone in it. He's a narcissist that ONLY cares 
about himself. He doesn't care about you, me, or anyone that disagrees 
with him.


He's tossed aside and stuck his mob of cult followers on anyone who 
disobeys him, including people who work for him in office and during 
campaigns. One mistake and he tells everyone you're worthless or 
against him, then the targets of his hate start receiving death 
threats from his followers. He's the least loyal person in office.


The people still going to his rallies are mindless sheep. I've watched 
dozens of interviews and the conspiracies people share are insane. JFK 
Jr is still alive, Biden is really Obama with a mask on, 5G is mind 
control, microchips in vaccines, etc. Their IQ levels are lower than 
low. Anyone with a brain sees through trump's lies. I hope his 
supporters snap out of the hypnosis soon.


You're not supposed to worship politicians. I voted for Biden because 
he's a decent human being but I don't make him my entire personality 
like trumpers do. I have no merchandise, I don't think he was sent by 
God, I don't praise him or think he's perfect, I disagree with some 
things like a normal person should.


2024 better offer us some better choices than Biden/Trump.

Chuck,

The craziest conspiracy theories are probably believed by a small number of
people, sure. But larger conspiracies like the covid vaccine will kill you
is believed by a much larger percentage of Republicans. Just look at
vaccine rates between the right and left. Many also believe rumors that all
kids are being groomed in schools, there's litter boxes for kids that
identify as a furry, that schools are teaching kids how to be gay, and
more. I've talked to enough anti-vaxxers that they're not the fringe
anymore.

I live in rural MN and there's some people that have "fu*k Biden" flags or
"trump won" flags up. A farmer also painted some hay bales that say trump
won or "keep your guns, rights, and God". People flying an American flag
with a trump flag right underneath. What they can't see is how un-American
that is. I can't wait for the day that he passes away and these people see
how much of an evil person he is.

I would say that at least a majority of people who still support trump are
as low as the sewer trash I'm seeing interviewed. Normally good people have
been indoctrinated into the cult when you actually see them talk about
trump.

Yes, indeed, look at the vaccination rates between the right and left.  

69% of our nation is now fully vaxxed two shots or more and 80% have received 
at least one shot.  

So if you figure 100% of liberals are vaxed accounting for 50% of those vaxxed, 
that leaves the 30% of the total for the conservatives which would be 60% of 
the conservatives.  And that means all libs were vaxed.  Libs not vaxed add to 
that 60% number.  In polls separating blues and red vax rates there was only 
10% difference between them.  So probably 65-70% of conservatives have received 
at least one shot.  That is not a large percentage of anti vax  to me.  This is 
old, from one year ago:


I do believe there is a concerted effort by fringe elements to introduce 
subjects to elementary students that have no place in public schools.  
Especially that fringe group that is attracted to children.  To even talk about 
things like that plant ideas in the heads of kids.  So yes, a long play 
grooming effort would be an apt moniker for such attempts.  They are rare but 
they are happening.  One of my daughters teaches jr high science.  She is 
forced to help kids that want to transition and she is prevented from telling 
parents by the school district.  

In any event, fringe is what 5th std deviation?  4th?  3rd?  Anti vaxers are 
probably second deviation.  So, yeah, not really fringe but in a minority.  I 
don’t get them at all.  They are all about latent side effects that eventually 
will kill and the experimental nature of the vaccine.  Hey, all vaccines are 
experimental and have side effects.  Wonder what they say when an MRNA compound 
created by a computer cures their cancer someday...  I have a good friend, anti 
vax to the max, he has long covid and is about dead from it.  Has had it for 
most of the year.  Still and anti vaxxer and denying he actually has covid.  

I don’t consider Trump evil, just blinded by his own megalomania and stupid 
enough to enjoy the attention of sycophants.  He seems incapable of critical 
thinking.  But hey, he is a TV personality, a showman, PT Barnum.  Who knows 
what he really thinks.  He plays for the ratings.  

He did do some good things. None of which will ever get play on MSNBC or 
Huffpo.

This is the part I have trouble with:  “with no intention of ever allowing them

If that was true then that is evil.  

I just have a hard time that ever happened like that.  They were separated yes. 
 That there was an intention of a permanent separation?  No.  

Who wanted to make the separation permanent?  And why?  

The Biden administration just separated a bunch of kids, flew them to upstate 
NW last week.  Those kids are separated from their parents.  They are farmed 
out to shelters and homes across a tri state area.  Sounds like what you are 
describing to me...  

So evil if Trump does it but not evil if Biden does it?  

This also goes for chain link fenced compounds for “visitors”.

  Yes, indeed, look at the vaccination rates between the right and left.

  So if you figure 100% of liberals are vaxed accounting for 50% of those 
vaxxed, that leaves the 30% of the total for the conservatives which would be 
60% of the conservatives.  And that means all libs were vaxed.  Libs not vaxed 
add to that 60% number.  In polls separating blues and red vax rates there was 
only 10% difference between them.  So probably 65-70% of conservatives have 
received at least one shot.  That is not a large percentage of anti vax  to me. 
 This is old, from one year ago:


  I do believe there is a concerted effort by fringe elements to introduce

  Chuck, 

  The craziest conspiracy theories are probably believed by a small number of 
people, sure. But larger conspiracies like the covid vaccine will kill you is 
believed by a much larger percentage of Republicans. Just look at vaccine rates 
between the right and left. Many also believe rumors that all kids are being 
groomed in schools, there's litter boxes for kids that identify as a furry, 
that schools are teaching kids how to be gay, and more. I've talked to enough 
anti-vaxxers that they're not the fringe anymore.

  I live in rural MN and there's some people that have "fu*k Biden" flags or 
"trump won" flags up. A farmer also painted some hay bales that say trump won 
or "keep your guns, rights, and God". People flying an American flag with a 
trump flag right underneath. What they can't see is how un-American that is. I 
can't wait for the day that he passes away and these people see how much of an 
evil person he is.

  I would say that at least a majority of people who still support trump are as

2022-10-11 Thread Chuck Macenski
There are real immigration issues and they are messy. I am not defending
anyone, but I don't see that Biden or Obama have much to do with my point.

The Trump administration took kids from their parents with no records that
would allow them to be reunited:
https://www.npr.org/2022/08/11/1116917364/how-the-trump-white-house-misled-the-world-about-its-family-separation-policy

I think we may be able to agree that it is nearly impossible to prove what
Trump knew about anything, but this was a marquee issue for him. So perhaps
he is not evil - he just didn't know (or care) what he was enabling. I
guess that is a more favorable way to look at it.

P.S. I know you will hate that I am sourcing from NPR, but I am too lazy to
look up the federal court cases (where the evidence was laid out under
oath). If you doubt this actually happened *and* it will change your mind,
I will dig out references to at least one of them.

I changed the RB4011 to a RB2009, and tried downgrading the RB4011 to 
ROS6.49.6 from ROS7.5 and it's doing the exact same thing.  I've tried 
setting up an EoIP Tunnel across the F425, and changed the Router ID in 
OSPF.  Still doing the exact same thing.  As soon as I enable the F425 
link, the Entire route table will flap between the Powerbridge and the 
F425 even though the powerbridge is a cost of 20 higher than the F425.  
If I disable the F425, everything is stable over the Powerbridge.  Not 
sure what else to try.

Subject: [AFMUG] OSPF Pulling my hair out

I have a site with a RB4011 connected via an old M5 Powerbridge, and an EPMP 
PTP425.  The 4011 is running ROSv7, everything else is on ROSv6. Connecting to 
a CCR1036 and CCR1009 on the other ends of the radios.

Everything was working perfectly for several months until a storm came through, 
and now the F425 OSPF Session will not stay stable. The OSPF Weights are set to 
prefer the F425 link.  The OSPF neighbor never goes down, Adjacency/state never 
change, but the RB4011 will update it's entire routing table about every 5 
seconds and flap back and forth between the Powerbridge and the F425.  The 
remote routers never update the route to the 4011, it is stable over the F425.  
If I disable the
F425 neighbor, everything is stable over the powerbridge.  If I disable the 
Powerbridge neighbor, the router will lose connectivity for a second every 10 
or 15 seconds, like it loses it's routing table.

There is no packet loss across the F425 link, and it will Tik to Tik bw test at 
100MB sync no problem and no packet loss.  I've even tried changing ports on 
the 4011, plugging the F425 into a completely separate OSPF router on the 
remote end.  I've also put the traffic through a VLAN on the F425 to see if the 
F425 was doing something weird with the packets.  The F425 radios on both ends 
have been power cycled.  I've also updated ROS to the latest 7beta, and no 
change.

I'd think this is an issue with ROSv7/6 since the routing table keeps updating, 
but the powerbridge link is always fine, so it feels like something with the 
F425.  Especially since it happened after a storm.
But at the same time, how could a failure of the F425 be affecting OSPF?  When 
I do OSPF Logging on the 4011, nothing is looking out of the ordinary.  I guess 
I could try physically changing the 4011, but I've never had a failure like 
that before.

Mainly I just want to vent that I'm probably missing something stupid, I just 
haven't been able to figure out what it is yet.

Re: [AFMUG] OT Political

2022-10-11 Thread Brian Webster
I call bull on all immigration issues. Congress has the power to create/change 
laws and set quotas at any time. They can change bad laws if they really care 
about issues. There is no benefit in a politician actually solving problems. It 
doesn’t create perceived problem to then run around and raise money for their 
war chest. How is it that lame ducks can still fund raise and why the hell do 
people contribute to that fund? If you are worried about them being illegals 
then legalize what they are doing. If there are no Americans to do all these 
jobs, then legalize those who will do the work so they can come to the country 
legally. The same politicians who are complaining and throwing mud at the 
others are the same ones who have the power to change the laws. If they all 
believe their cause is just and things are so bad, then they should be able to 
pass laws that will override a veto.

 

Again I call BS on ALL politicians from both parties that say they want to do 
something about the problem. I wonder if they make them legal the politicians 
are worried that they will be able to get in and become part of the social 
security system and be eligible when they retire? Can the US afford that? Maybe 
right now they have to pay in but can’t be part of the system or build up a 
retirement? Maybe the system is more broke than they are letting on? Maybe 
right now SS is just a legal Ponzi scheme and they don’t want or can’t afford 
to take on new liabilities like people who will eventually want to collect a 
retirement after paying in all those years? I don’t know but I certainly don’t 
understand why the politicians who gripe about what is being done can’t come 
together and legislate a solution…….. They do wield the power, do they even 
teach that is schools anymore? They need to bring back school house rock or 
something to teach this basic stuff…..

There are real immigration issues and they are messy. I am not defending 
anyone, but I don't see that Biden or Obama have much to do with my point.

The Trump administration took kids from their parents with no records that 
would allow them to be reunited: 
https://www.npr.org/2022/08/11/1116917364/how-the-trump-white-house-misled-the-world-about-its-family-separation-policy

I think we may be able to agree that it is nearly impossible to prove what 
Trump knew about anything, but this was a marquee issue for him. So perhaps he 
is not evil - he just didn't know (or care) what he was enabling. I guess that 
is a more favorable way to look at it.

P.S. I know you will hate that I am sourcing from NPR, but I am too lazy to 
look up the federal court cases (where the evidence was laid out under oath). 
If you doubt this actually happened *and* it will change your mind, I will dig 
out references to at least one of them.

If that was true then that is evil.  

 

I just have a hard time that ever happened like that.  They were separated yes. 
 That there was an intention of a permanent separation?  No.  

 

Who wanted to make the separation permanent?  And why?  

 

The Biden administration just separated a bunch of kids, flew them to upstate 
NW last week.  Those kids are separated from their parents.  They are farmed 
out to shelters and homes across a tri state area.  Sounds like what you are 
describing to me...  

 

So evil if Trump does it but not evil if Biden does it?  

 

This also goes for chain link fenced compounds for “visitors”.  

 

Obama OK, Trump not OK, Biden OK.  ???

 

Kids treated like dogs, oh my!!!  But only when republicans are in the white 
house.  And only on liberal news media.

If separating children from their parents (albeit at the border) with no 
intention of ever allowing them to be reunited isn't evil, I may not understand 
the word's meaning.

Yes, indeed, look at the vaccination rates between the right and left.  

 

69% of our nation is now fully vaxxed two shots or more and 80% have received

So if you figure 100% of liberals are vaxed accounting for 50% of those vaxxed, 
that leaves the 30% of the total for the conservatives which would be 60% of 
the conservatives.  And that means all libs were vaxed.  Libs not vaxed add to

You've confirmed you don't have the same loopback and router ID on both
sides? This behavior sounds like that's the issue. They need to be
different.
