Welcome to Windows XP Service Pack 4

[harkaz]

I just realize that my sp4 system does not boot/logon fast as should be all the times, and I have to push the reset button. It occasionally stuck just before appear the user logon screen. That "stuck screen" does not have color (not even black). Event Viewer snap-in doesn't register anything strange. Registry does not have KB2782798 (relevant maybe?). That KB is absent on another sp3 system with user_hidden and 5eraph_pro (Zephyr) latest updates although 5eraph say that it's included. What role play the EXPIRETIMESTAMP in update.inf (from KB2782798 -x)? Installation of the official KB2782798 updates the registry with the relevant keys but I don't know which files update. How to found what they change?

Based on update.inf only the relevant key is added and no files are installed:
HKU,s-1-5-19\Control Panel\Desktop

This is the key that needs to be present in the registry. The other registry keys are placeholders to satisfy WU and qfecheck tools.

EXPIRETIMESTAMP plays no role, it is just an unused string definition. Probably it is used in other update.inf files released by Microsoft, internally.

Removed the following updates due to inclusion in update pack 20170628.

• KB3197835, KB4012583, KB4018466 and KB4019204.

What is "update pack 20170628"? Is there any inclusion how-to I miss? Is it superseded which 5eraph forgot to mention?

"update pack 20170628": 5eraph's Post-SP3 EOS update pack released on 28/06/2017. Not sure about what was meant by removing updates, but the KB4018466 was later mentioned as superseded.

What if culturally-aware interviewers are actually enemies eg. agents with an agenda which betray the Hippocratic Oath, and not really help anyone as they appear as big pharma salesman or in payroll and scammers with a degree? Where is the control mechanism body who evaluates the success/failure ratio of their job? Another human-specific disease is this virus as they tell that animals can't caught it. Then there is a bat which appear as a carrier of the virus. So I thing that the bat is not an animal. (extraterrestrial maybe?)
Then there is a evolution theory in which people came from monkeys. But the monkey is an animal. According to this theory people are animals, so why people caught virus (or schizophrenia) and animals don't?
Where is the honest scientists to prove/reject the "caught theory"? A perfectly healthy person can't caught anything and the "caught theory" is unharmed!

[...]

I was try very hard to understand anyone who own a bank, investor, stakeholder and I conclude that they deeply believe they had rights not really there. Maybe are covert grandiose psychopaths but can't abuse myself anymore to felt what they feel. An annoying mosquito actor had nothing to do with feelings like empathy. Is all about greed which is another name for "annoying mosquito actor" who believe that by hurting others it can grow.

Yes, interviewers can be enemies, as in USSR. That's why searching for biomarkers is important, because it can be helpful in making the diagnosis more objective.
Evolution refers to similarity and natural selection, there could phenotypes specific to more complex organisms.
Viruses depend on their ability to enter host cells and replicate, so the affinity of specific proteins at their surface with human cell receptors (which can be structurally different between species) explains the specificity of a viral disease for human hosts.

Viruses can be inside the body but do not cause appreciable changes in the phenotype (asymptomatic carriers). The healthy immune system handles the situation and infected cells are removed from the cell population.

Regarding bankers, and other stakeholders:
In my opinion, if one wants to truly understand a person, they should take a look at the habits of their family and friends, their cultural background and their social position during childhood and adolescence, when personality is developed. By mid-20s one can roughly predict the social course of person until their death. Life is too small for serious change, after all.
Unfortunately, we do not have the necessary intelligence and cannot accurately comprehend the personalities of public personas.
We can only identify dependencies and some habitual preferences.
Still, a rich person that was poor in their childhood would be completely different from a rich golden boy, because they would not have a prime social position during their personality development.

The most important years in the CV are the early years.

To have an idea about the 20170628 meaning I'm tracking one of the rest hotfix there and finally end up with the KB4039384 (Unicode Script Processor), but that KB isn't there in 5erPOSUp.inf
Thanks for KB4018466 indication, I wasn't see it earlier.

I agree with the rest off topic post but the early development of a human seems to hit the same bad attitudes again and again over the centuries. I suppose that today parents/society has to be better from the previous one and the one's before that, but that's not the case. It's like that only the most corrupted create the current/given society every time, like it is some kind of filter in place with the purpose to erase morality, compassion, dignity and justice and other higher etheric values from the mortal level while these values create wealth and good life in the first place.

Important Offtopic:

WHO (the organization that declared 2019-nCoV was not responsible for human-to-human transmission in the early days of the pandemic and advised against an urgent suspension of international travel, even after this statement turned out to be completely false) revised the definition of herd immunity: https://www.zerohedge.com/political/who ... ts-website

This development suggests that indepedent scientific thinking will soon be forbidden worldwide, since scientific definitions are allowed to change after political pressure, with a complete replacement and disapperance of the previous definition.

People worldwide should resist, with any means available to them, against the aristocracy that viciously attacks human societies and civilization. The Great Reset may become a Great Rollback to the Middle Ages.

Offtopic question:

Thanks for sharing the link and your thoughts about it. I definitely agree that the human race can continue without being forced to rely solely on Pharma for it's salvation, and to be taught otherwise is wrong, and probably at least partially politically motivated. However, I also believe that Pharma can be beneficial, and to say that the human race is better off by ignoring all vaccines is also wrong. Yes, that approach has the danger of leading to over-population and the resulting problems that brings to the species, but I can't agree that it is better to just let disease "thin the herd," even if I do agree that is one solution to the problem. I guess I agree with WHO's original position that essentially stated, as I understand it, that herd immunity is achieved through the combination of vaccines and survival from previous infection. I think that means that yes, herd immunity can be achieved without vaccines, but then with a resulting higher loss of life. Correct? Would it be "better" to let smallpox and other deadly diseases keep the population in check? Some people believe that it would.

So, I'm in a quandary. I'm in favor of everyone having the right to their own opinions and beliefs, as long as they don't interfere with the rights of others. On the one hand, I respect those who don't want to have restrictions placed on them, vaccinations, travel, masks, etc, but on the other hand, I don't want those folks anywhere around me and my family, and I don't think I should then have to pay for their care, though taxes, etc, when they get sick. What to do?

What is your opinion about vaccines, for COVID and any other disease? Are they in general a good thing? Will you get vaccinated for COVID?

Respectfully, Cheers and Regards

@bphlpt

I also believe that relying on Pharma can be beneficial in a democratic system - I prescribe drugs daily. Vaccines are also very important, and played an important role in containing diseases like measles. This, of course, does not change for a bit the fact that herd immunity may be achieved by natural means, even if it is brutal. Any attempt to edit scientific facts based on political opinion, without clarifying that it is policy and not science, is very dangerous. The academic and technological elites may be able to rewrite the scientific books, based not on experimentiation, observation, and mathematic inference, but based on their wishes, visions and interests. This is fascism beyond aristocracy, similar to the religious position of doctors in the ancient tribes.

In the case of COVID-19 vaccination we can see a concerted effort to silence any attempt to independently study the effects of the newly discovered vaccines on the population, which could risk the success of the vaccination program. Vaccines are reserved from local governments, and independent, non-governmental research groups are not permitted to verify the manufacturer's claims on safety and efficacy, prior to large scale deployment. FDA and EMA issued Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) under extreme political pressure while a significant minority (~20%) of the FDA commitee was against issuing the EUA. At the same time, complete legal immunity - civil and criminal - is granted to the vaccine manufacturers.

Both for scientific (inadequate studying of long-term effects, prevention of human-to-human transmission, and lack of good faith to the scientific results presented by manufacturers that are not legally liable) plus political reasons (the democratic values of the West are threatened) I do NOT intend to be vaccinated until democracy has been secured. I will continue using personal protective equpment to prevent human-to-human transmission and continue providing healthcare services, as I have been doing since the onset of the pandemic.

With regard to your last question, I think that excluding potential public health threats from society requires absolute trust to the scientific establishment recommendations. Absolute trust corrupts absolutely. We know the end result of concentration camps for health and eugenics policies in Nazi Germany.

Today's situation is definitely different than others that have occurred over the centuries. I'm not aware of any other time when there were means for such rapid communication of information and rapid spread of disease due to both travel and population density. You have the rapid spread of disease and the even more rapid spread of information, and conjecture and misinformation, about it. Then you add the extreme political pressure to do something, anything, about the problem, and the threat that if you don't do something that you will be judged that you are contributing to the problem rather than to its solution. This judgement occurs by factions within any particular country, and between countries. That attitude is made more of a problem because of societal issues. It's kind of like education. Back a few decades ago, it was more common for parents, and students themselves, to take a more active role in their education, and take responsibility for the student's success or failure. Now, it seems it's more likely that both the students and their parents try to put all of the blame on the teachers and the school for any failures that occur. It's always someone else's fault. Then on top of that, add in the situation with media today. Often it seems that newscasters are more concerned about being the story rather than reporting it. Add in the vast proliferation of folks trying to either make a living or just get their 15 minutes of fame by being on TV, radio, print, blogging, etc. and here we are. It's good that we're not just being force fed one "truth," but with the vast amount of noise out there, you can always find whatever "truth" you want to believe. "Don't confuse me with facts! President, (or pastor, or teacher, or second cousin, or 'Joe Blow' on the internet) said ______, so that must be the truth!"

As a result of all of that, it is definitely true that the COVID vaccine was forced out faster than any vaccine ever has before. Yes, global politics forced that to happen. But don't put ALL of the blame on the politicians of any particular country. The "public" [including the media] wouldn't let there be any other result. Of course each country wanted to have the first vaccine released, for bragging rights, financial gain, political advantage, and career advantage for individuals involved no matter how peripherally, including the politicians. Also, of course, that same public and media will vilify everyone involved if those vaccines end up having any problems, without either the public or media taking any responsibility for the situation. "It's not our fault, it's 'THEM'!"

We have lost all patience as a species, we can't wait, we want it all NOW. At least that seems true for the more "advanced" sections of society. The third world is still willing to wait, but their sometimes wiser approach is not the one that is heard through the media.

To me this covid vaccine is total non sense , When even oral Typhoid Vaccine took India 27yrs to verify its safety and long time side effect , Here they are now making covid vaccine within 9 months. Anyone with common sense will stay away from it.
Most people here died in Corporate Hospitals , The recovery rate in Corporate Hospital is 13.2% where as in Public hospital is 97.1% (More people die due to air population). These figures are shocking to me. Public Hospital are using high flow oxygen , Azithromycin, Paracetamol and HCQ but private hospital are using fancy pants like Remdesivir and strong steroid. More people died due to these idiots in Corporate hospital.
I belief healthcare shall not be under corporate entities.
This whole pandemic is very shady. It killed something called democracy as free will died long ago, You cannot go out due to this draconian lock down. I wont be shocked if all evil politicians planned it.
How Hill Gutes knew in 2017 that their will be a huge pandemic in few years unless it is planned? Why FAntony Fauschy said we are not ready for next pandemic again in 2017? Why these two idiots are friends?
@harkaz Science died long ago as it doesn't favor corporate. EV was a thing in 1990 but all oil companies shut it down. Media is a control and all that it feeds are lies.

Hi @harkaz,

I'm going to re-create FINAL OnePiece update pack for all languages, to be like SP4 with all updates. I downloaded all from your repository and I was hope I can find .cat files for each used update.

My goal is build newest AIO INTL Packs, OnePiece last update is from 22-07-2017

Code: Select all

https://www.wincert.net/forum/topic/12210-onepiece-xp-post-sp3-aio-international-update-packs-final/

I would like to compare his pack with your latest SP4, to find differences / missing updates.
I already downloaded all updates from your Post SP4 Rollup in all languages.
I have also downloaded complete files to build indentical UpdatePack v1.0.9 from his last update.

Can you help me with this findings please? I would like to build it as soon as possible as I build tool to convert XP into modern installer - XP2ESD, that can help everyone create XP integrated media to make FINAL AIO XP distribution in one single install.wim / install.esd


EDIT: I made latest OnePiece packs for all languages, you can find them on Wincert

[GH0st]

@Harkaz ... do you have access updates to XP that are not avaible to the public, private pay peeps?!?! Would love to see if I could get them, make another GH0stPak ... GH0stPak 2.0! From June 2019 forward.
