По свидетельству самого Корчного, ещё в 1966 году на турнире в Германии ему предложили не возвращаться в СССР, но тогда он отклонил это предложение, о чём впоследствии сожалел: «потерял 11 лет человеческой жизни».
27 июля 1976 г — гроссмейстер Виктор Корчной попросил политического убежища в Нидерландах.
Корчной являлся одним из старейших играющих гроссмейстеров в мире. В августе 2011 года, в возрасте 80 лет, выиграл ветеранский турнир в честь 100-летия Михаила Ботвинника.
Если ФРС решится на рост ставки - инфляцию это притормозит, но затруднит обслуживание госдлга и финансирование дефицита бюджета (около 6% ВВП).
А если не повысит - начнется разгон инфляции и рост доходностей госбумаг.
Любое решение будет иметь негативные последствия, так что выбор будет сложным и даже - драматичным.
"Федеральная резервная система сталкивается с растущим давлением с целью повышения процентных ставок на фоне возобновления ценовых рисков".

В начале 1980-х гг немало довелось помотаться от Уренгоя до Грязовца по русскому Северу. В то время села уже вовсю умирали. Молодежь оттуда уезжала в города, и в деревне оставались одни старухи.
Стариков было очень мало. Алкоголизм их быстро сводил в могилу. Женщины в те времена пили мало.

... AI companies are making things expensive for the rest of us. Large language models such as ChatGPT and Claude are so resource-hungry that tech companies may be purchasing 70 percent of the world’s supply of high-end computer memory, causing a shortage. As a result, the prices of computer memory and storage are skyrocketing: Hard drives that I bought for my reporting two years ago for $350 each were $800 when I checked two weeks ago, and are now out of stock. The prices of some laptops have gone up as much as 50 percent

People deal with him as if he were a unique figure in American history and in some ways, of course, he couldn’t be more so. But not, it turns out, when it comes to American-style war. There, he seems almost boringly part of a story (now more than three-quarters of a century old) of how the seemingly greatest power on Planet Earth in the endless decades after World War II simply couldn’t -- no, not ever! -- win a war.Donald Trump remains at war (or perhaps at chaos) with Iran, a country a mere 6,300 miles or so from Washington, D.C., and so crucial to American power on this distinctly overheating planet of ours (right?). And even as I was writing this, Iran had indeed again closed the Strait of Hormuz through which about 25% of global oil and 20% of global natural gas normally passes
Harry S. Truman got us into a major conflict in Korea, almost 7,000 miles from Washington, D.C., in 1950, and when it ended three years later, the U.S. left the North Koreans with approximately half of the Korean peninsula.Harry S.

In 1961, President John F. Kennedy increased American support for what had been the French colony of Indochina (until its military lost the battle of Dien Bien Phu to Ho Chi Minh’s rebel forces in 1954). He would then oversee what would become a full-scale American war in Vietnam, a mere 8,500 or so miles from this country, as well as a war in Laos (also about 8,500 miles away) and Cambodia (nearly 9,000 miles away)

> 他方、ここに訳出する「理想郷からの知らせ」の原著題は、すでに書いていますように、News from Nowhere です。私自身は、Nowhere を No-where（どこにもない所）ではなく、Now-here（現にここにある所）と読みたいと思っています。といいますのも、モリスは、革命後の世界に実際に身を置き、本当にそれを体感しているのではないかと考えるからです。もはやそれは、「夢というよりは、むしろひとつのヴィジョン」の力を得て創出されるところの新世界なのです。その意味でモリスによる新世界の可視化は、単にセンティメンタルでロマンティックな dreamer（夢想者）によって生み出されたものではなく、さらにそれを一歩前に進めて、言葉の原義（designare／disegno）が示すとおりの、熱情と冷徹とに支えられたみずみずしくも知的な designer（創案者）の手によって表出されたのではないかと、私は解釈するのです。
> 一八九八年までに、News from Nowhere は、フランス語、イタリア語、ドイツ語に翻訳され、日本にあっては、『平民新聞』において、一九〇四（明治三七）年一月三日付の第八号から四月一七日付の第二三号までの連載を通して紹介されます。これは、枯川生（堺利彦）による抄訳で、「理想郷」というタイトルがつけられていました。連載後、ただちにその抄訳は単行本としてまとめられ、「平民文庫菊版五銭本」の一冊に加えられます。発行所である平民社の編集室の後ろの壁の正面にはエミール・ゾラが、右壁にはカール・マルクスが、そして、本棚の上にはウィリアム・モリスの肖像が飾られていました。しかし、連載を終えると、不幸にも訳者の堺利彦は、官憲の手によって獄窓の人となるのです。当時、社会主義弾圧下の日本にあってモリスを紹介する行為には、まさしくいのちをかけた、正義のための不退転の決意が寄り添っていたのでした。
> ここをひとつの起点として、News from Nowhere は、爾来百数十年になんなんとする日本へのモリス紹介の歴史のなかにあって、これまで多くの優れた文人たちによって訳されてきました。訳書題も時代とともに移り変わります。終戦以降は「ユートピアだより」がほぼ定着します。私自身もこれまで、慣例に従いながらも漢字表記を使って、「ユートピア便り」を訳語としてきました。しかし、それにもかかわらず私は、「理想郷からの知らせ」というタイトルをあえて新たに用いることにしました。それは、このユートピアン・ロマンス（夢想的物語）の翻訳者として、自分の身の危険を顧みず、勇敢にも日本の最前列に立つことを決意した堺利彦に敬意を表し、彼が使用した「理想郷」という文字をどうしてもここで再現したかったからです。News from Nowhere を訳したからといって、少なくとも今日にあっては投獄されることはありませんが、夢を語り、理想を掲げることが困難になる時代が、いつまた来るかもしれません。今日の世界を概観すると、戦争や核兵器の放棄に手をこまねいています、なぜ平和主義に徹することができないのでしょうか。原子力発電から自然エネルギーに転換することに躊躇しています、なぜ過去の教訓に学ぼうとしないのでしょうか。差別や迫害が横行し難民が生まれています、なぜ人権が守られないのでしょうか。気候の変動を止めることができません、なぜ自然のなかに生きる道を模索しないのでしょうか。富める者と貧しい者、多数者と少数者、そして勝ち組と負け組のあいだに理不尽にも大きな溝が存在します、なぜ同じ人間が平等に生を享受できる地平が用意されないのでしょうか。全体的に見ると、明らかに人類の生存が脅かされているのです。しかしそれは、いまに限ったことではありません。そうした状況は、かつては中世の「ジョン・ボールの夢」のなかに現われ、一九世紀イギリスの社会主義運動のなかで再び強く問われ、それを乗り越えた人びとの姿を、いま私たちは「理想郷からの知らせ」というユートピアン・ロマンスから読み取ることができるのです。しかし、すべての問題が解決されているわけではありません。私がいま確信していることは、理想を語ることを諦めてはいけないということです。そのためにも、モリスの芸術と社会に対しての語りと実践は、多くのヒントを与えてくれます。

Conexión y dualidad en las relaciones
La conexión y dualidad en las relaciones románticas representan la unión de dos personas distintas, equilibrando la afinidad emocional con la individualidad, creando a menudo una "dualidad" donde las debilidades de uno son cubiertas por las fortalezas del otro. La conexión genuina fomenta la confianza, aceptación y comunicación, mientras que la dualidad integra mundos, ritmos y formas de pensar dispares para crear una vibración extraordinaria.
Aspectos Clave de la Conexión y Dualidad
Conexión Emocional: Se caracteriza por la presencia genuina, confianza y la sensación de ser visto, escuchado y aceptado tal como uno es.
Dualidad de Pareja (Sociónica): Se describe como una relación donde la cercanía natural permite a los miembros relajarse, sin temor a que sus debilidades sean criticadas. Es una mezcla de dos formas de pensar, estilos de vida y pasiones que crean un equilibrio.
Retos de la Dualidad: Aunque a menudo idealizada, la dualidad también implica retos como la posible dependencia, el estancamiento, o un desajuste en el ritmo de vida.
Integración Interna: La dualidad no es solo externa, sino que también implica la aceptación de nuestros propios conflictos internos (emociones vs. razón, seguridad vs. aventura) para conectar mejor.
Diferentes Enfoques sobre la Dualidad
Relación de "Anam Cara": Se refiere a la idea de almas gemelas o una conexión profunda donde dos personas se sienten iguales, trascendiendo convenciones.
Dualidad como Conflicto: A veces la dualidad representa la lucha interna entre el amor y la duda, o la dicotomía entre "partes dignas" e "indignas" de ser amadas.
La verdadera magia radica en aceptar la dualidad no como una pareja perfecta sin dificultades, sino como la integración de dos seres distintos que deciden complementarse.
¿De dónde vienen los escrúpulos?
De una piedra en el zapato.
Literalmente.
La palabra “escrúpulo” proviene del latín scrupulus, que no significaba otra cosa que :
“Una piedra pequeña y afilada”.
Los soldados romanos lo sabían bien. En sus largas marchas, las piedritas se colaban dentro de sus sandalias (kaligae) y causaban un dolor constante.
Entonces, los legionarios debían decidir:
¿Sigo marchando con dolor… o me detengo para sacarla, arriesgando retrasar a todo el grupo y recibir castigo?
Esa incomodidad constante, ese dilema entre actuar o no actuar, dio origen al concepto de :
“Tener Escrúpulos”.
Con el tiempo, el término salió del ejército y se instaló en la vida civil.
Pero he aquí el giro:
senadores, jueces y políticos romanos no caminaban
Viajaban a caballo, en carruaje o en litera.
Como los políticos de hoy, que van en auto con chofer.
Nunca tuvieron piedras en los zapatos.
Por eso, tampoco tuvieron escrúpulos.

The panic is not that people have stopped loving music.
The panic is that people have started doing maths.
They are looking at rent, food, transport, debt, wages, childcare, medicine, exhaustion — and then looking at a concert ticket swollen with dynamic pricing, service fees, parking fees, VIP tiers, merch markups, drink prices, and miserable stadium seats — and saying:
**No. This is not worth my survival.**
And now the industry acts wounded.
“Why are young people killing concerts?”
They are not killing concerts.
They are refusing to bankrupt themselves for joy that has been fenced off, branded, tiered, algorithmically hyped, and sold back to them at landlord prices.
Music did not become unaffordable by accident. It was made that way by the same forces that make housing unaffordable, healthcare terrifying, food expensive, transport unreliable, and rest feel like a luxury. The worker produces the wealth, builds the venues, staffs the bars, drives the trucks, cleans the floors, streams the songs, buys the shirts — and then cannot afford the civilisation built out of their own labour.
That is the obscenity.
They rob people of leisure, then scold them for not participating in culture. They drain people’s lives of joy, then call them boring. They turn every human need into a payment plan, then act shocked when the public begins choosing groceries over spectacle.
People still want music.
They want dance, sweat, sound, communion, romance, rebellion, bass in the ribs, strangers singing the same chorus, the holy little madness of being alive in a room full of noise.
What they do not want is to be treated as wallets with legs.
And here is the great lie cracking open: **the industry is not music.**
The ticket platform is not music.
The promoter is not music.
The stadium is not music.
The brand campaign is not music.
The “cultural moment” manufactured by managers, bots, playlists, and corporate partnerships is not music.
Music is older than markets.
Music survives in small venues, basements, house shows, local festivals, workers’ choirs, queer dance nights, punk rooms, street corners, community halls, bedrooms, garages, churches, warehouses, and friends making strange beautiful noise because they have to.
The collapse of the overfed concert machine would not be the death of music.
It would be the choking of a parasite that mistook itself for the host.
So when they ask why the blue dots are multiplying, why the seats are empty, why the tours are cancelled, why the public is no longer rushing to save the luxury spectacle, the answer is brutally simple:
**You cannot underpay people, overcharge them for survival, and then demand they keep every entertainment empire alive.**
People want lives.
They want beauty.
They want leisure.
They want experiences.
They want music.
But they are tired. They are priced out. They are insulted. And increasingly, they are refusing to confuse participation with submission.
Pay for what genuinely delights you.
Support the artists and spaces that treat people like human beings.
Let the bloated machine tremble.
Music will survive.
The extraction model built around it may not.

Plötzlich Facebook-Lobbyistin: Irlands einst höchste Datenschützerin wechselt die Seite

As of today, during the night, the backlog of >5 Mio. worker queue items has been resolved and new posts are delivered on time again.
Hopefully it stays that way.
Counter measures were:
- increasing count of CPU cores from 8 to 24 vCPUs
- increasing memory size from 20GB to 65GB
- redundant setup of Friendica behind a load balancer, so that two virtual servers can work on the backlog
Whileas CPU and RAM are back to their old settings, the redundant setup will stay and maybe extended to a third virtual machine.

Sorry for the downtime in the last days, but there seem to be an issue with php8.4-fpm which caused the backend being unavailable.
I've now switched to php8.5-fpm and will monitor the site more closely in the next days...

There seemed to be a database issue (as in: being slow), so I gave the database more CPU and RAM and moved the data disk from SSD to NVMe...
At least the site seems to be more responsive now, but there is still a backlog of around 5 Mio. items in the worker queue, still increasing...
