There was no Kohlzine on October because Casey was hidden.
But now we are back, even more autistic than ever and featuring some illustrations by Russian bernd.

We are waiting for your OC and text (any content, really) submissions on our mail: [email protected]
If KC doesn't die by then, lucky #13 will be our ANNIVERSARY issue, so expect lots of quality content(well it depends on your input too, kinda), KC posters, copypastas and more.

Enjoy

reading about cities
but i already know the answer/solution: so called 'red lines' (which existed)

its simple: after you build a city or a new block of it you can't change anything there for n years (or if less strict anything within 'red lines', basically anything whats important)

Technically, the main thing of Guitar Hero is that it's very basic and all the mistakes could be fixed by trial and error, which is also the third way of learning in real life. You can learn from
> Investigating
> Observation
> Experience
and GH easily replicates the third. It also teaches that perseverance is the key to breaking a wall, and that a lot of time can pass until you manage to score a milestone (ie: beating Raining Blood on expert). This is also married with the fact that by practising each day you get better at something, be it lifting wheights, learning a language, or trying to beat TtFatF. I started lifting going to the gym and being more consistent with me after starting with guitar hero then I dropped the gym since my headphones broke and the music they play is shit three out of five days

Investigation differs from experience in the sense that one voluntarily researches about a subject, the one who is learning goes out of his way to learn about something. Observation and experience are not necessarily something the subject wanted to go through voluntarily, many things can be learned from seeing people behave, but that knowledge isn't something that the user was actively searching for. Experience is the most basic one, you mess something up, you feel the consequences, so you need to see what you did wrong to avoid it. Can be related to observation but with more primal activities (ie: not touching hot stuff) it becomes something so basic a dog can recognize it.
Though the idea of these kinds of learning processes is something my mother told me and she's quite retarded in some areas, so I should probably take this with a pinch of salt.

Sounds sound to me.
One thing I can't fit in. What we are doing now. Basically learn via getting taught. And in this I see two ways. One: just accepting the package given (like in schools), two: applying criticism and accepting when found solid.
Although this can be applied to the three you described, if only we observe only the student's side. Like a dog is taught to sit, there's a teacher ofc, but the dog learns from Experience, if he does good he gets praised/petted/treat, repeat over and over until it connects the command-sitting-feelinggood together. So it's just the pure learning process.

That's technically the idea of investigation, you research on a subject and try to comprehend what is happening around it. It can take talking to other people, which in this case both parties are helping each other in the investigation.
But this could be a part of observation as well, since the main difference between one and another is that one is strictly voluntary, while another one happens spontaneously from an event in life.

Basically observation and experience are passive while investigations are active, you actively test stuff and observe/experience it in ways you probably normally wouldn't.

Yeah, but the table doesn't says that anywhere.
You can bet your top hat on that many would try and follow it without thinking they'd need warm up, many would fuck up the simplest of exercises, many would hurt themselves by doing it wrong. It's a law of nature. If the stuff isn't presented in idiotproof way, they will fuck it up (even after that to be honest, but then the author could just wash his hands, he tried everything).

Bernds, I want to write a short story but I am having a little writers block. I have the beginning and the end but I'm struggling to make the in between with gravitas and comedy. Here is the beginning, tell me what Bernd should do next? What would you enjoy?

A cold dim night in late Spring, Bernd sits alone in the glare of his screen pondering life and its' many shades of boredom and dissapointment. Still sucking his tastless meal from between his teeth, his pale thin wrist and palm supporting his tired head under his weak chin. Scrolling past the image of an attractive woman he feels a sense of longing but no titilation, not anymore. The simple teenage joy of a coom, long since enjoyable due to the following moments of sobriety that remind him he is forever alone. And so our story begins with a simple innocuous post, a plea for attention perhaps or maybe misery in need of company.
> what's the best way to commit suicide? painless if possible.
> picture of sad clown related. It's me.
BANG, BANG, BANG! Three loud knocks come from his bedroom door. Panicked thoughts race through his mind, everything illegal he has ever done, that time he was bare IP whilst browing /b, the time he tried to buy drugs on Tor or perhaps simply using sites full of illegal opinions had put him on some sort of list. The moment passed and he removed his headphones. Perhaps it was all an electronic prank. Bernd turned to face the door. For what must have only been a second or two but felt longer, he waited, gripped with panic, thinking of everything he should be doing as he sat there idle as ever. The door opened in a confident calm manner and a well groomed man stepped in.
"I have what you seek, Bernd." He said.
His relaxed manner seemed to put Bernd more at ease than before, despite him being a stranger. Though Bernd remained silent.
"I wasn't expecting your head to be quite that size but we shall make do."
As he apprached, bag in hand, Bernd raised a weak hand almost defensively which was brushed aside the way a mother might shift the arm of a baby to dress it. The bag was placed on Bernds' lap unzipped. Bernd had hoped remaining silent, ignored the man might leave him alone. Without any forethought, Bernd muttered.
"What's that?"
"Something not offered to just anyone."
A dark open faced helmet was produced and thrust immediately down over Bernds' head. Again, Bernd attempted to raise his arms and sink in his chair emitting a whisper to the sum of 'no.' The man in a powerful confidence, with calm smiling face in the screen glare had placed the helmet with complete ease and while Bernd was aware of no chin strap he began to feel a tight discomfort. Bernd immediately attempted to remove the helmet.
"Struggling will only increase discomfort. Just let it settle whilst is adheres to your' head."
Bernd now began to panic like a fly being closed in a venus fly trap and lashed out with his words in an attempt to defend himself, though not risking physical confrontation against his still unknown, potentially armed, assailant.
"Fuck off! The fuck is this!?"
The man now headed toward the door.
"It's what you asked for Bernd. In 1 hour, the claymore helmet will cause your head to instantly and painlessly implode."
With that, the door shut behind him and Bernd was once again alone with no idication anyone had been there other than the slight extra weight he now felt on his head and reduced sound to his ears.

Соuldn't recommend anything and don't know what I want to see, so I just provide some variants:

1) Stereotypical #1
These events provide Bernd with energy of life, he understands that he doesn't really want to die. So, he struggles to find the way to remove the helmet, and story goes into action-oriented way. Depending on author's desire, it may be contemporary action with involvement of special services, secret societies and conspiracies, or mystical/fantasy story with templars or dragons, whatever. Ending may be good or bad depending by mood of the story.

2) Stereotypical #2
Undertanding that it is the end, Bernd spends last hour of his life as he want, struggling with moral and ethical questions. Maybe he tries to finish his work and say farewell to everyone he knows, maybe he just thinks about life and it's meaning, maybe he continues to be imageboard dweller to the end, or tries to find god in his life. In the end he dies.

3) Modern literature of "the West" 
Choose any from 1 and 2 but add that Bernd is the refugee tranny. In the end of the story, reader must understand the evilness of patriarchy, oppression, oil industry and common sense. Will this story receive the award?

4) Absurd
"Claymore? Helmet? Hah!". Bernd transforms into mighty knight with claymore sword and black helmet. Story ends in Monty Python sketch about Black Knight, when he stands without arms and legs but still thinks that he won, and sings song to the reader.

5) Plain postmodern
Suddenly everything changes, and Bernd jumps through different environments, from short movies to historical settings. He slowly understands that he is a character in author's postings, and all known universe for him is just an imageboard, he doesn't have nor own personality, nor free will, and his thoughts exist only in mind of imageboard readers. In the end he questions do he really has own thoughts, do intelligence and soul exists, and confronts the author with these questions.

6) Complex postmodern
Starts as the 5, but chain of events shows that author is also not a real person, but a imaginary character that is written by another person who discusses author's short story on this imageboard. But is that person real too? In the end it is obvious that there is no difference between imaginary and real characters, no one have real consciousness, and everyone are just collection of patterns in waves of light. Light also exist only in minds of these characters, so everything isn't real, because reality doesn't exist, and term "existing" is also exist only in minds of nonexistent characters.

Can i rephrase you mail to use as an introduction for the article? Beggining takes off very quickly.

It would be something like that:

> This is a text written on a controversial topic, that of the potential but unrealized arms industry output Germany could have achieved in the first years of the second World War. A common view is that it was large and could have been accessed if only the German leadership hadn’t mismanaged the economic war effort. I take it as a thesis and present an antithesis using informations from Adam Tooze’s book Wages of Destruction as my only source; it’s a summary of the book’s information on this topic.

Sure.
You can replace the Wagenfuehr index with this nicer-looking version; caption it "General performance of the late German war economy: Rolf Wagenführ's Armaments production index, Total Arms, and three-month growth averages". I've got two more figures you can use. 
The first you can caption "Arming for Barbarossa: % absolute (red) and per capita (blue) increase in equipment numbers, June 1941 over May 1940". It's in Wages of Destruction, appendix, table A4, p. 684-5, with the sources given as: Kroener, in DRZW 5/1. 731, 836, 834, 959; Mueller, in DRZW 5/1. 554-5.
The second, "The influx of labor into the German war economy". It's from United States Strategic Bombing Survey, The effects of strategic bombing on the German war economy (Washington, DC, 1945), 202, 204, 206, 210  (appendix tables 1, 3, 5, and 9), found in: Mark Harrison (ed.) , The economics of World War II: Six great powers in international comparison (Cambridge, 1998), p. 161.

Neither are particularly important but the first demonstrates how  the Heer became not only larger but also better-armed over the France-Barbarossa period.
The title is KC but seems to cover this topic broadly, to emphasize it's about underperformance I'd rename it "The Industrial Output of IIIrd Reich in WWII: Too low?"

Also put the paragraph about resources into the beggining of rationalisation part. I hope you don't mind.

Late rationalization
< Germany entered the war without the resources to satisfy its military production targets, and arms output did not really take off until February 1940, from which it rose until July and stabilized. In ’42 it entered an exponential growth, the classic phase of the ”Speer miracle”, until the middle of 1943, followed by much slower growth (stagnation in some sectors), a final burst in the first half of 1944 and a slide into oblivion (figure A).

> The paper trail shows bureaucratic infighting through the France-Barbarossa interval, with economic institutions accusing each other of incompetence. This corroborates older data on production and workforce which shows the former not catching up with the latter’s growth, suggesting a decline in productivity. The concluding picture is of early war Germany “squandering its armaments advantage” through ”egotism and incompetence”. But to truly grasp war production in anticipation for Barbarossa it is necessary to know what were its ends and whether it achieved them.

The orange paragraph is better placed within the beginning, to leave it clear the late war - early war contrast I'm talking about, the two late periods of exponential growth versus the France-Barbarossa stabilization and the early Poland-France delay.

Well lot of them 4chan crossposters without much coverage from other IBs. I suspect they could be divided into three groups: 1. kohl exclusives; 2. altchan crossposters; 3. kohl-4 crossposters. My suspicion is that the third is the biggest group by far.

I just wanted to interject on this post because I had an opinion about the "Extortion industry" article in the recent kohlzine. 

Mainly that it makes no sense in my eyes. Videogames up to this point are like businesses, especially AAA games. They're made to make money, not give things away for free. Piracy is pretty much someone stealing the crops that took you a year to cultivate and were planning  to sell at the market soon and giving to people in the market. Even if something is illegally and freely available, it doesn't make it right to take it without permission.

During the development process, they hire a multitude of people to work on a single videogame, with the average videogame costing around $50 million to develop, release, advertise and manage digitally as well as physically for selling. It's an extensively exhausting and incredibly time consuming process which last from years at times, sometimes even a decade. Final Fantasy 14 is a good example. Teams of up to 20-100 people are hired just for a normal and regular game to be made

Most of the time, they get funding from investors or from their own company bank idk how they call it. You can see relevant data for all of these in the following articles I will post below

https://www.cgspectrum.com/blog/game-development-process

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video&#95;game&#95;development

https://venturebeat.com/2018/01/23/the-cost-of-games/

https://vironit.com/how-much-does-it-cost-to-make-a-video-game/

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video&#95;game&#95;development

How are they supposed to pay their employees, advertisers, testers, debuggers, artists, programmers, investors, etc, for all the effort they put in? Donations? Like $1 dollar each? Good luck paying the salary of even one 60,000 euros a year junior concept artist with that.

The other point I wanted to raise is the title of the article. Nobody's forcing you to play the games at any time.

And they're not even that expensive. They're around 50-70 dollars. Sometimes they're on sale for 25%-50% less than their regular selling price after a year or two. Even if you work at a burger place you can afford to pay that idk things are a little tough for some people right now, but still

I'm not in the place to argue for the author's point, but he says that information (intellectual products) has no value on market basis. There is a finite demand for a video game, but it can be supplied "infinitely" with very low cost (making copies is just the electricity basically).

Think of the books, their pricing is justified mostly by the costs of publishing, printing, typeseting etc but kept the lowest possible to make people want to buy them at all, author gets small fraction of the price but thanks to numbers of the copies he may still become rich if its a bestseller.
Additional value is added by hardcover, color illustrations etc, so all the things that are a result of the physical distribution mode. This is to offset the possible loses caused by the lack of sales, this is the risk the publisher makes, of course the more books gets printed the better because it lowers the costs of the production ber book but what do with the warehouses of books nobody bought?

Like Hungarian above said, game publishers today dont risk anything like that, their number of copies is infinite and can reach every place on earth with the internet.

The fact that publishers don't even try to lower the prices to increase to amount of sold games imho is telling they they still are making dirty profit of braindead consoomers. Piracy at least forced the publishers to add some value to their physical products. Now the only added "value" is the marketing.

I also can do with a book whatever I want. Although I can't rewrite them.

But today books can have electronic copies, which also makes them reproduce on negligible cost. We can abstract that information has no value at all. Funnily enough coz information can be vital, invaluable.
Was Aristotle payed for the information he had when the taught Alexander, or for the teaching? What if, someone else couldn't come up with all that knowledge, but would have been a better teacher after learning it?

Yet the pricing is often very similar to the pricing of the physical books. And they continue being expensive way after author's death. There literally is no excuse.

I'm talking about passionate game developers and artists not getting any compensation for their hard earned work.

For example, Owlboy is an indie pixel platformer game that took a literal decade to be finished. I'd at least like to give the devs something substantial for doing so much work.

He actually was tbh. Philip II of Macedon hired him to be a personal tutor for Alexander the Great. He also taught other future Greek commanders

> In the end, Philip chose Aristotle and provided the Temple of the Nymphs at Mieza as a classroom. In return for teaching Alexander, Philip agreed to rebuild Aristotle's hometown of Stageira, which Philip had razed, and to repopulate it by buying and freeing the ex-citizens who were slaves, or pardoning those who were in exile

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander&#95;the&#95;Great#Education

Aristotle was taught in the Platonic academy, which lasted until the Roman invasion of Athens by Roman general Sulla. You can't keep a school open for almost 300 years without paying people something to keep it up and running tbh fam

I've talked before about how Aristotle's family were some of the richest merchants in the world, (along with Swebernd), so when he tutored Alexander, it wasn't for money, it was because he was a rich, famous man with connections and likely didn't need to be paid at all.

Yes, but they could teach literal bullcrap (part of it sure was) or pure gold, no difference. They were paid for the act of giving and not for the substance.

Further we can conclude that information in itself, has no value.

Ofc course they deserve compensation, but the point was of the article that the scheme - "selling" the games - is the wrong way to do it, because you don't pay for something that has no value, but you pay because otherwise you can be arrested or sued, or both... basically it's an extortion.

its because of this we are now in dark ages of gaming, because you cannot create both good and profitable

Well the value of this slab would depend on skill of the craftsman, rarity of the rock and its durability.
It will be different if its a hardened clay or the sandstone. 
In the game industry there is this strange attitutde that demands money because of muh work regardless of the quality of the product, in fact people often are forced to pay for unfinished products.

Well, value - or maybe worth - ofc a relative thing, frequently subjective, and couple of types of values exist. Something can have value for you but not for me. And price is also a different thing, while it's related. He  >>/37136/ also gives good examples of stuff makes value relative.
A slab of rock in your example can have value if there's a demand for it.
Marx describes objective value, he says there's a - let's call it - "common denominator", which can help to determine the value of things objectively, and it's work.
For example diamond has more value than iron, since X amount of diamond to produce is more work than produce the same amount of iron (let's stay at uncut diamond, and iron ore, with the same amount of mining you get less diamond than iron, so the work divided per unit of diamond is more than in the case of per unit of iron).
And you can use it this to everything, a hammer consists of the head and the handle. Both needs to be made. Tree have to be felled, cut, handle shaped, it's all work. The ore has to be mined, made it into iron, then steel, then the bar have to be shaped into a hammer head, it's all work. But the tools which helps to making it, those also contain the work there were made. And the craftsmen knowledge, the learning process is also work.
So everything can be translated into work.
For example someone wants that slab of rock, just plain, no chiseling or sculpting. But to give it to him I have to move that thing and that's work.

The problem of intellectual products is, that how do I measure the work needed? Let's stay at philosophy for an example. One can come up with an ingenious idea effortlessly in the strike of a moment, other have to think hard for a lifetime for something else. Both really is a good thought, will the former worth less because there's less work behind it?

And like philosophy, the same knowledge which adds the same value can come from 5 years of an engineer's studies or 20 years of a construction worker's experience. Arguably the engineer got it from others' work, his professors and a body of literature, but the total work in producing the engineer's knowledge is still quantitatively and qualitatively different from the same knowledge in the construction worker's case.

So im making a briefing to Libyan war infographic and wrote a short introduction based on what ive read, especially the Fragmentation of Libya pdf present in this thread.

Could you check it for meritoric errors and too ambigous turns of phrase, mischaracterisations etc?

The break-up of Libya after the sucessfull deposing of Gaddafi was a multidimensional process which, due to the large number of actors, cannot be understood without going into details about social, political and economic structure of Libya. 
Since the purpose of this text is to merely introduce laymen to the situationpls  refer to the excellent work by Wolfram Lacher for first hand accounts and detailed description:  Libya’s Fragmentation, Structure and Process in Violent Conflict (2020).
However, the genesis of the Second Libyan Civil War should be briefly sketched out, as fundamental to the understanding of the events unfolding as we speak:

After the victory of the revolution in 2011, there were quite a few powerful militia left on the battlefield and the lack of political will or power to dissolve them. Instead, after the Libyan accounts in European banks became available to the new government , the distribution of the spoils began. Paramilitary and tribal groups were paid from the budget and grew without political control over them, some taking control of the oil fields as their security forces. All attempts to disarm them or incorporate to new army failed. There were sieges of state institutions in order to pay the militia's wages and kidnapping of political opponent.

Part 2:


The GNC (General National Council) government (loose alliance of moderate islamists and revolutionary leaders formed in surprisingly democratic elections) was basically held hostage by militias from Tripoli and nearby Misrata, while the east of the country was left to its own devices. Murders of people connected with the former regime, not only soldiers and security apparatus members but also journalists and writers were a daily reality in Benghazi. Not only did the government turn a blind eye on this, but in May 2013, it imposed legislation that completely excluded people with positions in Gaddafi's state apparatus from power, which struck not only loyalists but also people who had  switched sides joining during the civil war as well as some of the expat opposition. This bill was forced by the pressure of local militias.

General Khalifa Haftar, was a Libyan officer taken prisoner during Gadaffi's war with Chad. After his release, he spent years abroad in opposition circles before returning to join the revolutionary army in 2011. When the GNC extended own mandate in January 2014 to the interim period till next elections, act seen as unlawfull by many, Haftar called for its dissolution, which met with mockery. But just a few months later, supported financially by Egypt and the UAE and recruiting among disgruntled officers and people who lost on the transformation, he organized "Operation Dignity" to contain the situation in Benghazi, eliminating islamists, promising stability and an end to the lawlessness. This lead to fears in the revolutionary camp that Egyptian scenario (the counterrevolutionary takeover by army) may repeat itself in Libya.

The results of the May 25th election were devastating for Islamists and gave a lot of seats to people with anti-Islamic views. This prompted some local militias to open operation "Libyan Dawn" and banish the new government from Tripoli. The operation led to the takeover of the city's International Airport, antagonizing its former "owners". - brigades from nearby Zintan, which were very influential in the city in previous years (their areas are visible on maps as a red enclave under Tripoli). The new government (HoR) moved to Tobruk, and many forces previously skeptical of Haftar, like the Zintan brigades mentioned above, were forced to form an alliance with him.  

How did this local war turn into a proxy conflict of the several regional powers? Who benefits? Apart from the obvious issue of hydrocarbon control there are several layers of geopolitical and ideological struggle happening there, following infographic will try to break them down nation by nation and will describe the major internal divisions in Libyan factions:

Libya's political system was very decentralized, the general populace voted maybe in every question, it was a very direct if not the most direct almost democracy of our age. Except - supposedly - it was build up in a way that Gaddafi's will could prevail I can't really judge, people, journalist, political analysts, and the like from liberal democracies naturally will say that hurr durr the whole thing was sham, Gaddafi evil dictator, poor oppressed people.

My military history of the 1964 coup d'état is a couple months away, Kohlzine should be proud as it'll have a lot of historical information that has never before been compiled in the English language. There are a few things to consider about how to fit the text. It'll be quite long and I can see difficulties with the images. Besides photographs it'll have orders of battle and maps. Not only will they add up space but there are two concerns about the maps:
1) Color. It's a nice challenge to fit them all to a B&W scheme but usually I'd employ more than two colors to distinguish between allegiances of military units.
2) Size. Most/all will be wider than they are tall and I want to make use of a page's full space. Physically this is normally done by flipping the map to the side, filling the page, and the reader turns it around himself; this is how it'd work in the printable version. But for the .pdf it might be more convenient to have the page itself turned to the side.

Just realized how massive my content is and thought about splitting it in two, this one is about Rio de Janeiro and outlying theaters, the other would be about the remaining theaters and some more questions. Still, my text draft alone is already large and then there's bibliography, maps, orders of battle and photographs.

It is. That pdf with maps and illustration could fit an essay, and the material in the thread reaches a thesis.

Fat can be cut from the footnotes if needed, from the main text I'd be more careful to not harm continuity, I can rewrite parts if needed. Two parts are implicit, a key for the cartographic symbols and a bibliography, but I think Bernds now at least where to find such a key online and a bibliography only interests Lusophone readers. Hence no need for the two.

Finally I read it. The previous version tho, which is few lines longer.
Honest opinion:
I think the reading experience suffers a bit since too much facts have to be crammed in. I had to concentrate better what's going on despite I read the long version. Those who aren't versed in the history of Brazil, or doesn't know military organization even a little, probably will be lost. Assburgers will do fine (even if they lack in the aforementioned topics). Since the zine target audience seems to be from the same set, I think it's ok.
As mentioned in there a follow up article with the secondary theaters could complement this one.

What differentiates my research from what Anglophone accounts have already registered on this topic is mainly the tactical minutiae. For greater clarity in some places it's still possible to reduce information overload. 
In this draft I raised clarity. The text shrunk further (2,304 words) but that's because more details were cut.

One paragraph needs to change:
> Coupists in the Navy immobilized the “people’s admiral” Aragão’s marines. Hence Âncora told him his remaining muscle in Rio, the Army Police and Presidential Guards, couldn’t ensure his safety in Guanabara. Rio’s garrison was still in quarters, under legalist control but perhaps neutral. Attempts to persuade units failed, and forceful takeovers were deemed too risky. The rebellion consisted only of governor Carlos Lacerda, his police, the military schools in Urca and the Copacabana Fort.

Kk, the typesetting is almost ready, i will just need 2 more pictures.

One for the ending of Sao Paulo theatre description, other for the legalist defeat or counterfactual or the conclusion. 

BTW the map u provided is noice, it looks good even with the units details.

For São Paulo, either the counterfactual or the theater, use the first two:
> 1st Company of the 1st Light Tank Battalion moves by rail towards the front
> Generals Kruel (middle) and Âncora (right) conference at the Agulhas Negras academy

For the defeat/conclusion:
> Afternoon, April 1st, Guanabara. Tanks defending the now empty Presidential residence join up with the pro-coup crowd gathered in the governor's palace.

There's a typo, the 6th footnote in the first paragraph of the São Paulo theater shouldn't be there.

For clarity the first paragraph of Legalist defeat needs to change from:
> Coupists in the Navy immobilized the "people's admiral" Aragão's marines. Hence Âncora told him his remaining muscle in Rio, the Army Police and Guards Battalions, coulnd't ensure his safety in Guanabara.
To:
> Coupists in the Navy immobilized the "people's admiral" Aragão's marines. Hence Âncora told the President his remaining muscle in Rio, the Army Police and Guards Battalions, coulnd't ensure his safety in the city.
This one is important.

And in the counterfactual, not vital but should be made clearer:
> As long as Goulart broke with the left, Kruel offered to destroy Mourão. Could he? There were officers ready to imprison him if he didn't join the coup and Mourão believed his legacy as the "revolutionary leader" in São Paulo would prevent the IInd Army from fighting him.

The text under the link says This article contains a list of the most famous imageboards - sites, with the declared possibility of anonymous communication without mandatory registration, and with the ability to attach images to messages (posts). The list of sites is sorted by groups, which are divided: by type of location on the Internet, then by the main (prevailing or obligatory for visitors) language of communication, and, finally, in alphabetical order by English-language domain names, (since Russian-language names can be several from the same resource). On most imageboards, anonymous users from different countries can communicate in different languages. The so-called overchans, non-working imageboards, archives and other thematic resources, in the groups of which the sites are also sorted in alphabetical order, are highlighted in separate groups. Since the categorization of imageboards by nationality, for a number of reasons, was difficult to implement and such a categorization option seemed unnecessary, then, for a more convenient compilation of lists, the imageboards are divided: into overlays, darknet imageboards, ordinary Internet imageboards (with their division according to the established language communication on these sites), non-working (ie closed) imageboards, archived imageboards and other sites. The sites in these groups are sorted alphabetically.

Borscht is a soup made from real beef or real veal, real vegetables and real potatoes. The classic way to eat it is with bread and garlic, or just bread. Goulash is not soup.
> Such is life, brat. I can't suggest other boards you might enjoy. I dunno what you like.
I already sit on other boards - Russian-language boards and several foreign ones, for example 8kun and 9chan.
> What that idiom means?
Idiom means a large number of objects, so many objects that they occupy almost the available space of what they are inside. The idiom began to be used after, in one Russian cartoon, in which the cat said the phrase "I have as many of these things - as shoe polish at a shoe polish factory. Well, they just got filled up." The idiom can be synonymous with word "dohuya"

What does it mean to be a Hungarian? What makes a Hungarian? Who is a Hungarian?

What it means to be: American, Australian, Canadian. After all, these are former English colonies, and these peoples do not have their own language. Nominally, Canada and Australia are ruled by the British crown, the Australians even have a piece of the flag - a small British flag. I'll just write two of our jokes: 1. Anyone can be Russian if he speaks Russian from birth and has a Russian mentality (drinking vodka with a bear sitting at a nuclear power plant, juggling matryoshka dolls, dancing with sabers, jumping into the snow in a bathhouse, etc. - like this ). 2. Russian is a state of mind. If you feel like a Russian and want to become a Russian - be Russian.

I'm sorry. I just don't like 
- to communicate with foreigners - we have a difference in mentality, etc., they have prejudices against the Russians for various reasons (oh, these Russian barbarians living in shit with nuclear missiles), here we add a "movie about Russians" General Gogol, cosmonaut Andropov, etc.
 
- I don't need to explain to the Russian how the use of the phrase "na hui" is different from "hahiui". And why "ohuenno" is better than "pizdato", which is better than "huevo". 

- I especially do not like doing it on anonymous foreign imageboards 

- I don't like Endchan in general. Only Loldifoxers are comfortable here. It's just that I have enough communication on Russian-speaking sites and, of course, imageboards with Russian-speaking users. 

There are no other reasons to come here. 

I like watch a movies and a TV series (I'm the cinema fan), read a books, listen a music and writing the articles for different websites.

Isn't the point in talking with foreigners that they have different mentality? For me that is interesting. That is also interesting when I notice something similar in their thinking.

The problem is simply that on Endchan 90% of Russian speakers (not only Russians, but Russian-speakers) are: - former lolifoxers who came running here after closing - Former Krautchans who came here after closing - schizophrenics and idiots who write about Chechen gays, mythical stories and about politics And 10% of casual visitors like me. Moreover, there is only one section, which is almost half filled with shit posts. At the same time, the former lolifoxers, of whom there are a lot in the / rus / section, are psychos with conspiracy theories, schizophrenia and paranoia, that the authorities are spying on them on other resources, and the administration cooperates with the authorities. That is why they are so fond of posting from Thor on foreign imageboards, and better on the darknet. My point is they are crazy and sick idiots and full of shit. 

I do not communicate with shit even on other resources.

> Isn't the point in talking with foreigners that they have different mentality? For me that is interesting. That is also interesting when I notice something similar in their thinking.

This is not interesting to me and there is absolutely no desire to waste time on this. I am not interested in the mentality of foreigners, their personal stories about their lives and so on, and I am not interested in what is happening in their country. I am interested in world history, and not in something concerning the life of ordinary people, problems in their life or the situation in their country. I'm not interested in the peculiarities of their culture, told by an unknown anonymous author on the image board.

> This is why I suggested to talk about something else, which has nothing to do with this topic.

No, thanks.

Now I want to read Jack Lander. Wars of Roses.

Quite a few books was written about that war. Why did you decided to read Lander's book? I don't know that one (I browsed some other) so I don't know if it has any significance. I'm not questioning your judgement, I'm curious if I should get it.

He is a well-known historian in Western Europe who has studied the medieval history of Britain. I began to read selected non-fiction books from my list of references, covering the period from the beginning of the reign of Henry IV to the death of Henry VII Tudor. I'm not interested in fiction books about this, like K. Penman. 
Lander's books are interesting to me - I consider him an authoritative source that I can trust. And other people can too imho.

No. A rude-ish Russian - who posted here for a while in tandem with our regular Russian - once posted his board he developed. It was hosted somehow with heroku and the link looked like: "herokuapp.blahblahchan.com" or "blablachan.herokuapp.com" or something alike. He posted it here in a very early phase of the development, and last time I saw it it wasn't yet mature. It had a very basic CSS which looked a bit off. It had two boards, a /b/ (maybe it was dedicated to trains like that one chan) and an /int/. The most notable feature of /int/ was that you could pick what was getting displayed next to your post: your flag or your haplogroup (actually there was a third option, like continent or race or something, I can't recall).
The thread lasted quite a while, I bumped it a couple of times so won't get lost, but recently was pushed off from the catalog.

The reason for its closure was a home-made engine, the engine was constantly buggy and broke and the server crashed, well, shitposters helped to close it. It closed in December, the admin promised to fix the engine and open it on January 5th. It's already 5 February. The Russian-speaking imageboards I know of are about 80+ and sometimes some die, but new imageboards open up. All new imageboards are small, but their main problem is not traffic, the reasons for their problem are the engine, the quality of the content and the type of users. If all three of these characteristics of the particular imageboard can be described as "deep shit", then as a result the imageboard will close - sooner or later.

Must have been a challenge. On the other hand it is a good learning opportunity.

This could lead to a vicious circle. Bad users produce shitty content which repels good users but attract bad ones. Who then make more shitty content.

 >>/42443/
6? Nice. Did you see difference between the authors how they viewed the Tudors, how they judged their work?
For example what we know about the Wars of Roses are largely coming from sources that were filtered or created by the Tudor propaganda (they had to justify themselves and create legitimacy), and historians now start to question the usual evaluation because of this interference.

Such a med centric view ignores the elephant in the room and aside from that it's too simplistic. The world now is much more like it was during the lead up to WW1, you have multiple actors with various gaols that often compete with each other while at the same time may also work with each other. So for example, Egypt and Sudan are allies in that scenario, I think he lumps them together due to supporting the same side in Libya however Sudan is upstream of Egypt and has been in support of the Ethiopian dam which directly threatens Egypt. Sudan is just as likely to fight a war against Egypt as it is to fight one alongside them against the Turkish backed Libyans. Turkey as well, could swing in multiple directions as could France.

And this all ignores China who is the greatest threat to the world and the most likely to cause WW3, many have linked them to WW1 Germany.

Med as a centre of of World affairs is certainly an attempt at provocations but one has to admit that the proxie wars waged here have most direct influence on whats happening in Europe especially when it comes to migrants. The Alliance blocks are also rather provocative choice.
One book is not enough to abbreviate this mess but i think author did a correct thing and separated the text into minor conflicts with different actos switching sides in certain cases, just like you described.

Maybe it's med centric because the active events fold out in that area making everyone there directly involved. Those who are further away while can be active influencers and participants of the events, the events aren't played on their lands, so their participation is indirect.
And why those things happen in that region? Because - as Szálasi wrote - the Mediterranean is the meeting point of three continents, a clashing zone for their cultures, their powers, and is a key area of the Anglo global empire.
Maybe with the Age of Exploration the world became bigger, moving the theaters of history shaping conflicts out from that area, but as the revolution of transportation and communication shrunk the globe again, now we're finding the fire pit again there.
While I still not read the article (I'll do it, just have more urgent), I agree the conflicts in the area are complex.

When you link a post directly copy the link from the "No." and not from the actual number. That way the link will open the thread at the post, and not just the thread (despite the URI will contain the post's number).

Maybe but I don't see it as happening that way. Yes, the Mediterranean is important but none of the players in the sea have the ability or inclination to start a world war over it. It's an area for Proxy wars and minor power rivalries. Turkey and France might support groups against the will of the US but they are not going to fight a war with her, that would be insane and it would not even cause a world war anyway. Russia doesn't have the ability to seriously contest the Mediterranean either, again, it can support groups but in the event of an actual war it would quickly be cut off and there really isn't a reason to do it. Even Iran is unlikely to cause a Word war as again, Russia cannot support her in any meaningful way and supporting her would be suicide, Russia would be very vocal in it's support of Iran and may arm them and even send proxies but it won't join the war.

It could be seen as a training ground for alliance testing.
As USA is pulling out of middle east France will have to step in to create some new alliance with Egypt (together with Italy and Greece) to balance Turkish and Russian influence. Already they are very close to UAE. This all will have implications for how whole region will be reacting to Chinese penetration since French see them as competitor over Africa.

Maybe. The French don't really oppose Russia and they actually share the same goal in Libya(with the Egyptians too). They will counter Turkey but only where they have interests and it's what they are doing with the US being in the ME anyway(the US does not really care about Libya).

As you may have heard, the G7 recently announced a plan to counter Chinese influence world wide with a G7 Belt and Road, so France will be in that but it's not clear what each will contribute, where and how happy they are about it. France may just invest in her African satellites and nowhere else.

I feel that "Kurdistan" is the kind of a project Yugoslavia was. A bunch of mountain savages who spoke similar languages decided they should try have their own state after foreign empires get kicked out, and in ~70 yrs if it ever happens they will end up genociding each other.

There's a hard limit what France and Turkey can do against each other since they are in the same military alliance. Sure they can support various opposing groups but I think mostly those are on the very fringes of the two powers' reach, so if one side fails, it won't be big deal for the power supporting them. Like Libya, France has way deeper interests in Francafrique, and while has long standing relations with Libya, the opportunity to meddle in their affairs is fresh. And for Turkey that place got onto their growing sphere of influence recently. Gaddafi was just too exclusive.

Okay.
So if done, the title, Kohlzine has to be changed. As a self-definition it can be stated that it is a continuation of the zine. Also if real effort is done maybe old editors will get on the wagon.
I think it should be extended to other imageboards, reach out to other chans. First and foremost bernd.group, and maybe ernst. A thread should be put to Kohl/make. Any other chan can be involved essentially, it's not the chans that would make it, but the users, Bernds, Anons, whoevers.
Needs an email acc, where the submissions has to be sent. Either some standards have to be set how submissions should look like, or just let all kinds of stuff to be sent, and compiled together as is.
Someone has to edit the stuff. There are publishing applications, I think Scribus is on Linux and probably LibreOffice can be used as well. But in the simplest form some pdf creator tools (I dunno liek PDFChain??) can be used and just make an ebook looking publication, and not a magazine type.
Cover art also has to be created.

So:
1. pick a name
2. set up a mailbox
3. inquire on chans all over
4. wait, check mail time to times
5. post reminders everywhere
6. when enough material sent edit it together
7. create cover art
8. post the result everywhere
9. set up a site to host the published issues
