Overnight Open Thread (13 Jun 2015)
Now the Obama Administration has asked the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance court to grant permission to restart the program for a 6-month "transition," a move that not only seems particularly unnecessary, but also flies against the spirit of the Second Circuit Court of Appeals' decision that bulk surveillance is illegal.
Moron Lifestyle
The Supreme Court in Iowa has affirmed your right to be drunk on your front porch. Decline Of America's Power Who's afraid of America? With our current leadership? Not many and that was largely left out in the article. Obama's track record with red lines and focus on the political appearance side appeases our enemies and emboldens them. They don't seem to fear hashtags. Scrambled Eggs
Also on Friday, the White House announced a "30-day Cybersecurity Sprint" in which the administration is instructing agencies to take actions such as testing their networks' vulnerabilities, patching weaknesses, restricting the number of privileged user accounts and "dramatically" ramping up the use of so-called multifactor authentication, which goes beyond requiring people to use passwords. In addition, a "Cybersecurity Sprint Team" will engage in a 30-day review of federal cyber efforts.
Only a matter of days before we get a cybersecuirty sprint team czar. Polar Bears vs Dolphins
Two virtually ice-free winters enticed the dolphins into the Arctic region, where their food has also showed up thanks to warm water. But a sudden influx of ice trapped the dolphins, making them easy prey for hungry polar bears.
Um no, it wasn't virtually ice free the last two winters in the arctic. Can you say stranded warmists needing rescue the last few years because of, wait for it, ice. Cat Video

Well I got in the mail today a letter from the OPM saying all my
information might have been compromised. And that I should log in to OPM
to update things like passwords and initiate the monitoring.

Question. Serious question...for those of you who have moved to another area and house...as I was in my last castle for 20 yrs and area for 30 yrs...how long does it take to sort of/ kind of feel "normal" again? And the house feel like home? I mean, I miss my old house. This has been more stressful than imagined with everything in house going haywire (tonight neighbor knocked on door as we had a geyser from broken irrigation thanks to guys putting in fence. It is a blast and we are bleeding money $$). I am counting blessings and rocking back and forth and telling myself this is normal. But for how long? In short, my flying monkeys, I am a wee bit depressed. Thanks.

We moved to a brand new city and state 11 months ago. The house part was easy, but I do miss my old house. Cougar and I bought a 1957 rancher and made it just awesome. Ask Weirddave or Gingy, they saw it.
New house is...serviceable. New construction, and seems to be solidly built. Only issues so far have been minor.
It is hard adjusting to a postage stamp lot in a subdivision. I miss being able to take a piss outside if I felt like it. And not having to shut all the windows before sexy time.
No luck making friends, it's a small town and everyone has the same friends they had in high school and don't need any more. Don't really care about that, as most other humans are annoying and not worth my time.
Hang in there.
Posted by: DC in River City at June 13, 2015 10:14 PM (e+1S5)
I'm averaging a move about every 18 months; it feels normal as soon as I figure out where all the light switches are. "Home" has depended on why I move. Sometimes it doesn't feel like home until it's time to leave. O.o

Got two notices today from the privatized housing people that they're cutting the renters' insurance from our contract but it's not their faaaaault, it's Congress'. Yeah, we get less services every year but the housing people still take our full increase of BAH every year, funny thing that.
And Christy, as an AF wife, it doesn't take me long to have things feel like "home." Even though we go back to our parents' for various things every few months, our hometowns have both changed so drastically that wherever we are is home. But it's the life we signed up for, your flying monkey mileage may vary.

Thanks, morons and y-not. Some days I feel ok. Some days I don't. Sort of like almond joy or that chick who thinks she's black.
We built the house we left. It took 20 yrs to get it perfect. I don't have 20 yrs to spare, want this done now...and it is turning into a money pit. Complete with irritation towards spouse and vice versa and hail. I am ready to pack my hobo pack and catch a freight train to look for sapphires in Montana. Would probably last one day then look for resort for evening.
This place is huge. Perhaps I should barricade myself, bury in boxes, and wait and see how long it will take Yankee husband to find me. Oh, and Mrs. Kravitch, well-meaning neighbor who wants us all to be a village, has struck two days in row: one for ice cream social dates for neighbors and, today, a message on door for some type of kiddie thing in her yard. I don't mean to flag her, as her heart is good in wanting to teach kids about the Bible. But, whoa. We figure others must feel the same and run from her.
I am so glad you morons are here and remain crazy. At least something is the same...

Hang tight Christy. I've moved many, many times (about once every 3 years). Once you've got the boxes unpacked, the rooms set up, window drapes/blides up, it'll start to feel like home. The one time I moved overseas was the most off putting. I don't think I ever thought of it as my home.

I heard that. My high school had wussy football teams but great soccer teams, especially the girls varsity soccer who won several state titles while I and little sister attended.

It is a trade off. I used to do the 1.5 acres myself, now I've decided that family time is precious and I pay somebody to cut the postage stamp. Takes two of them maybe ten minutes. Just me, between actual work and equipment maintenance would be about 2 hours per week.
I do miss the satisfaction of looking out on a perfect lawn that I made perfect all by myself. Now, I just write a check and have beer on the patio with Cougar. I like this way better.

Youngest is in Illinois, and she has more or less adopted her in-laws as her parents. She calls me maybe once every other month, and I get to see my granddaughter via Facebook.

Early morning shootout.
Then a visit with my FIL at the rehab center, where he bragged about some young filly nurse helping him shower.
Then to the weekend farmer's market for some fresh peaches, bread and a pineapple popsicle.
Came home, bathed one of the dogs, which wore us both out.
Cheesesteak and some wine for dinner.

Reverse situation for me Jane. My parents love me very much, and miss their college-age liberal son, whose bleeding heart do-gooderism did not survive actually having to get and keep a job after graduation. The same thing will happen to him, and he will love you anyways because you are Mom.
(I love Mom very much, and I never miss Mother's Day and her birthday. It's kept me in the family all these years.

Question. Serious question...for those of you who have moved to another area and house...as I was in my last castle for 20 yrs and area for 30 yrs...how long does it take to sort of/ kind of feel "normal" again? And the house feel like home? I mean, I miss my old house. This has been more stressful than imagined with everything in house going haywire (tonight neighbor knocked on door as we had a geyser from broken irrigation thanks to guys putting in fence. It is a blast and we are bleeding money $$). I am counting blessings and rocking back and forth and telling myself this is normal. But for how long? In short, my flying monkeys, I am a wee bit depressed. Thanks.

My wife and I moved from Manitoba to Alberta in 2007. I left a job I held for 30-minute workout years. We left a church we helped start. And moved to a new place. It was extremely unfamiliar and uncomfortable. But gradually the drive home became familiar, and, in time became, truly, my drive home. It's home now. We would likely be fully retired if we still lived in Manitoba. Here I still need to work but our grandchildren are here and I have no regrets. Life is good.
The one reality is that life-long friendships aren't built overnight-or in seven years--but new friendships get formed.

Hah, now for an extra special kicker...turns out I've just been informed by a friend and ally at Eastern Washington U. (who was involved in bringing me to campus to speak there last semester), that it was Rachel Dolezal who had objected to me coming, because I, as a white man, can't speak to race issues involving black people. First, they got a dictionary at EWU where she can look up "irony?" And second, her objection is perfectly indicative of her problem. She thinks I seek to speak from authority on blackness. No, that's not me, that's YOU Rachel. I only seek to speak about whiteness. Her confusion on that point is the source of pretty much all this bullshit: not knowing the difference between confronting whiteness and seeking to speak for blackness.

There are moments when this house feels right. Then there are moments when I want to go "home." But it is done. I have moved before, in college. Moved from here to Florida with two babies to occupy me and very little to unpack as poor.
I am thankful for the Internet and phones to keep in touch with friends and one son. But it is not them I miss, it is a feeling of exhaling or something. Kicking back and not feeling guilty I am not unpacking or, heaven help me, painting over the 50 Shades of Dijon former owner left us. I am hoping by fall it will be fantastic and I will be happily planting bulbs I could not have in Floriduh and enjoying the fall colors et all vs hurricane evacuation on I-95.

I think she had a really bad day yesterday and probably today as well. Probably tanning madly and poking fork into electrical socket to heighten curls. I think it is a wighat myself, as curls always "just so." I have curly hair when I let it, and it is never the same each day. Sometimes it behaves. Sometimes I look like Orphan Annie Duchess of Alba with a Zit. What is the deal with me getting a zit? I am too olde. I might as well have a sign with an arrow (which is, I think, Hillz sign now, ha)------>zit on chin, not leprosy

Good financials and good luck helps too.
Attitude takes you over the rough spots and it sounds like you got someone to help.
One day at a time, my new GF tells me, and she has more reason than many to know that.
Most underground irrigation systems are now PVC and that just glues together. Easier than sewing a shirt, that is for sure. The hard part is the shovel work and working upside down in a trench if it is really deep.

First thing in the door I saw was what I thought was a V-1 painted yellow, it turned out to be JB-2 loon. I then saw the V-2, and asked if it was a real V-2 or a repro. The Docent looked embarrassed and said, "no, it is a reproduction, but the Redstone and the Titan II are real" as if it reflected badly on the museum.
If you have a chance, go there. They have a B-17, SR-71, an ME-262, amazing stuff. They have the Spruce Goose, and it has control surfaces that look like they should be used for gates to divert spillways in a dam. They have the Titan II in its own demi-silo (a silo-ette if you will, and I asked my good friend with me, "so do you think there really is enough room here to set up a Stargate?") They have lots of stuff. The place is filled with marvels.

I always enjoyed seeing a perfectly mowed lawn when I was done as well. I useda haveta mow an acre with a push mower. It was all fun and games until DoD got some silly idea it was necessary to alternate directions to avoid getting wheel ruts in the lawn. Instead of switching every other week I decided to mow elaborate patterns to avoid making wheel ruts. it useda drive him nuts but my solution was better than his.

So, I own it now and I'll be getting the estimates for the new stones within the week.
After that she started to get a little freaked out about it, we've been talking about it for a while but now she's starting to believe it's going to happen. She still WANTS it to happen mind you, just now it seems more real.

*deep breath* Well, I bought a ring today. Actually a triple stone
setting that had a trio of topaz stones in it, the center stone about 4x
bigger than the sides. The stones are being pulled out of it now, the
center will be replaced with a pink sapphire and the side stones will be
diamonds. A little nervous about what the final price will be.

Is it safe going to tinyurl threads other people post?

Posted by: Stateless Infidel at June 14, 2015 12:36 AM (AC0lD)
Funny you should ask that.....
My first indication that anything was awry was when I got a bunch of amazon.com emails asking me to rate their customer service on phone discussions. Considering that my attacker's discussions used three pieces of information (available from my resume or countless other documents) -- name IRL, address, and personal (linked to Amazon) email addy -- and that allowed my attacker to discuss details regarding my prior orders [including that case of hand lotion, case of Kleenex, and DVD of 50 Shades of Grey.....], get the last four digits and expiration dates of every card on my Amazon account, and reset my Amazon password so that he could glimpse everything in my wish list, cart, downloads, and "previously viewed".....er, I'm not that thrilled with it. I have since CLOSED my Amazon account. Those fucking blabbermouths can't be trusted with a burnt match, much less anything relevant.
Second, my primary ISP will ultimately allow you access to an email account if you have the email and last-four-digits of credit-card to which it is billed....which you can easily get from Amazon. You can change the security questions, add alternate email verifications, change alert texts to cellphones....and see the last 4 digits being billed -- which means: once you're in, you're in -- unless you can burn a cc for each attempt to kick an interloper out.
Third, an interloper can continue to read your emails even after you have changed your password, due to POP3 persistence.....which is a real pain-in-the-ass.
Fourth, I have evidence (mostly on shut-down, compromised computers), that the person who did this to me frequents this blog because he bragged about it here, showing knowledge he gained from my email accounts in open posts.
Fifth, by either treating this person's posts as I would a regular's, or by reading emails from myself as if they were real reminders, I got a keylogger dropped on me. [Note -- there is no reason to think there was a keylogger prior to the initial Amazon/ISP exploit, because it wouldn't have been necessary to get so cute.]
Sixth, it is exceedingly likely that this payload was dropped on me using a tinyurl link. The suspect is noted for using "youtube, youtube, youtube, tinyurl, youtube, tinyurl, youtube, tinyurl" links over the course of an ONT.
Seventh -- I'm going to intentionally omit the details on how I figured out I had a keylogger, but I will note that I gave up an upper-level password, covered for that risk, and left it running for about 10 days on my Discover card. When I curtailed the risk on my Discover card on 6/1, they told me that my last online access had been on 5/31. Despite how I'd known I had a keylogger before June 1, online access on 5/31 proved its existence.
Eighth -- I was paranoid enough that I have a bunch of systems in recovery, have not suffered a direct financial loss, and anticipate the ability to salvage all data on all drives. Regular backup and password control advice would take care of most of this for most people.
And ninth -- and it kills me....if your system isn't totally secure against malware, don't click tinyurl links dropped by anyone but long-time and trusted Morons whose hashes match their history.

since she is a known fabulist, and seems to be behind these charges somehow, yes, it will affect the case. The defense lawyer has a mega boat load of things to impeach her credability with. In fact, I wonder if the charges get dropped

Thank you so much. I appreciate you taking your time to write all of this out.
I gathered from past posts that you had some sort of keylogger dropped on you from tinyurl links from that bastard that did this to you.
It's great of you to post all of this here so people can be careful about clicking on tinyurl links - which I think we all pretty much do from time to time. That was my big concern and I'm going to be a bit more cautious from now on.
Thank you for the community service message. Despite all of this crap you're going through, find a way to have a happy week. (I think you have that covered, but the reminder can't hurt...)

I used to beat the hell out of my eggs before putting them in the pan, so that they ended up looking a lot like that yellowish mush in the video.
But eggs taste much better when each bite has a some texture -- when each forkfull has either more yoke than white, or vice versa.
This brings out the flavor of each component, and the different feel in the mouth of each component adds to the experience.
So begin by melting butter in a pan on low heat, using enough butter to completely cover the bottom. Break the eggs into a common bowl, but don't beat them. Instead, using a fork, break open each yoke just enough so that it spills out into the egg white -- just enough to leak into the white.
Pour a generous portion of milk or half-and-half into the egs, and stir them lightly -- a gentle blending, not a mixture.
Pour milk and eggs into a pan and season with salt and pepper. Throughout the cooking, keep the heat as low as possible -- high heat creates long chains of protein in the eggs, making them rubbery. The milk and low heat keep the eggs nice and soft and fluffy.
Let the eggs sit in the pan as poured -- don't mix or stir. When the bottom firms up and starts to bubble, take a spatula and scrape the bottom of the pan, moving the hardened eggs and letting the liquid egg on top to ooze onto the bottom, replacing the cooked eggs to be cooked in turn.
Do this one or twice more -- this is where the "scrambling" comes in. Only it's not scrambling, so much as it is folding the cooked and uncooked portions on top of each other. This keeps the texture in the eggs.
When done, gently remove the eggs from pan to plate, again to prevent too much mixing.
Guaranteed best eggs ever.

Yeah.... as a US Fighting Man... a Sailor... I'd really want to serve on a ship named for someone whose only claim to fame, is being a TARGET...

..."Whenever you need anything, I swear I'll be there."
..."How's your car running?"
..."It is a very nice car."

Time to shit-can Firefox and install Pale Moon, which is built on the old reliable Firefox "engine", without all the cruft. And you can import your Firefox profile, bookmarks, etc. And the Firefox add-ons all work with Pale Moon, although some of the Pale Moon-specific add-ons work better than the Firefox ones did.

They left a note in my mailbox that said, "We're not hicks. We don't blow our grass into the street."
I put a poster-board on my mailbox that said: "Whoever wrote that note about lawn clippings should stop by and tell me personally. I'll make coffee."
I put it out for three years and the asshole never revealed himself.
I'm not afraid of anyone, sometimes to my own detriment.
...but we can talk.

Bigger danger of the neighbor wanting to sit and have beer or 10 if he sees me walk out there.
Posted by: Robinson at June 14, 2015 02:30 AM (+1K+6)
Nah... If the guy had the balls to show up, we'd talk.
I'd tell him how stupid it was to act anonymously. The worst thing that would happen is I'd short him on cream and/or sugar in the coffee.
...unless he wanted to play by "backyard rules". Nobody does that, however.
I'm a live-and-let-live sort of guy.
Since he doesn't have the balls and he never showed up? I've got some tricks in the bag if I ever find out who it was.

I just re-roofed with metal and I am a fan. Nothing sticks to it. Snow/Ice slides off easily, albeit in much larger sections. I won't ever have to re-roof again.
I like the aesthetics of the newer architectural shingles, but the cost was twice that of metal, not counting tear off. If I won the fricking lotto I would have cedar shake, not caring about insurance.
Glad I did the metal.

"But the fact is that the metric system had its origins in the violence and terror of the French Revolution, not merely as a byproduct of social and political upheaval--for which it might otherwise be forgiven--but as a deliberate, conscious effort by the most radical of the radicals to completely destroy the fabric of human history and civilization and remake it in their image. Metric was not designed for convenience, but as part and parcel of an explicit attempt to erase man as he was and recreate a new, scientific, rational man who could march into the future unrestrained by the shackles of his own past. And the philosophical heirs to the French Revolution have, onto this very day, continued to push for its universal mandatory adoption.
It is, in a very real sense, just another tool in the modern totalitarian's toolbox--and most people don't even know it."
