Overnight Open Thread (3-15-2016) – Not Nam, There Are Rules Edition
Like I'm going to waste good material on a primary night. Homey M. don't play that game.
Semi-related: The Punishment ONT yearns.
I share many of the New Urbanist ideas for cities, but I can't cast my lot in with the group because they are screwball-daft when the subject of cars comes up, and will entertain any inconvenience as long as it's anti-car. I don't want to ride a got-damned bicycle to work. Most people don't. Period. So you have to force them out of their cars into something else. If a neighborhood is made sufficiently inconvenient for cars, some will adapt, and some will find a home in a place where they can have a car. That's your choice. If you stay, fine; glad you're happy. If you go out into the far-flung exurbs because you want to drive, and are willing to endure a few inconveniences, then fine; that's yhour choice. You'd think the Critics of Everyone Else's Choices would be happy that people are living far out and taking the train in, but no, a fresh new horror has revealed itself as people continue to show the depthless roiling stinky-pitch of their hearts:'While city planners generally welcome transit hubs to their community, they are concerned that, if improperly located, the stations will actually increase sprawl by encouraging people to drive to rail stations instead of walking, biking or taking the bus.'
People are driving to the train.
And PARKING.
-- James Lileks
Remember that marketing slogan for Volkswagen? Fahrvergnügen meant the enjoyment of driving. But that seems to be fading, as a recent study show fewer adults are getting driver's licenses (why bother when you have Uber, Lyft, and, in due time, "autonomous" vehicles?). A friend's husband recently told me he couldn't wait for driverless cars for his daughters-it's so dangerous out there! But it's always been dangerous on the roads. In the latest issue of the Weekly Standard, I argue for common sense, although it's clear I'm not winning the argument.

Airlines Soon to Introduce a Class Below Economy
So what is basic economy? For frugal travellers, it's shorthand for giving up some of the few remaining comforts of flying economy. The biggest sacrifice is losing the ability to reserve a seat when booking a flight (so be prepared for a middle seat in the back row). If you are travelling with family or colleagues, forget about sitting together. Passengers flying basic economy also forfeit their right to upgrade their seats and to change or cancel their reservations more than 24 hours after booking.

There Is No Good Reason We Can't Make A 'Face/Off' Sequel Starring Nicolas Cage And John Travolta
My reasoning for why we should make a Face/Off sequel starring Nicolas Cage and John Travolta is simple: Why shouldn't we make a Face/Off sequel starring Nicolas Cage and John Travolta? Are we worried about tarnishing its legacy? I don't see how that's even possible. We're so far down the reboot/reimagining/sequel path at this point that we'd need GPS to find our way back. One more can't possibly hurt. Hell, it could even be a good movie. Last year you probably heard "a Rocky sequel focusing on Apollo Creed's illegitimate son" and rolled your eyes so hard they spun all the way around and left you looking back at your brain. But then Creed came out and it was awesome. Face/Off 2: The Faces Are Back Off (working title) could be good. And if we hurry up and start now, we can rush it out by next year for the 20th anniversary. Hashtag nostalgia.
And even if it's not "good," it would probably still be great. Face/Off was - and is - a ton of fun because it was loud bonkers nonsense where Cage and Travolta didn't so much chew scenery as gorge on it. If you're worried those two have lost their appetites since then, please allow me to direct your attention to every single movie Nicolas Cage has made since Face/Off was released and every single thing John Travolta is doing as Robert Shapiro on The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story right now.

They're putting her in magazines, dolling her up in makeup, and calling her Crawford's lookalike. Just don't agree.

It was an elegant idea, a special cargo pod was developed that had seats and oxygen and amenities, and would be loaded, shoved onboard a 747 cargo plane and pulled off at the end with a forklift and delivered directly to the terminal.
Sort of like flying in a conex box, with the added benefit of not having to walk down any boarding ramp.

You can acknowledge a teenage girl is pretty without needing to turn it into something wrong.
And you are right. There are poses of them together. The kid ain't her mom. Which is nothing to hang one's head over. Like you say, pretty much nobody is/was.

The good side is that so far everything is working as advertised and I have to admit that SquareSpace does a pretty good job at tutorials (obviously, if I can come up with a working product).
The bad side is that there's no way to test it out with other people until I pay the subscription and it goes live. Which means I can't test the sales portion in real-world conditions and that makes me nervous as well.

When I was last in Bangkok (2years ago), Thailand was pretty friendly and cheap, as long as you would put about $100k (3 million Baht) on deposit and leave it.
Locals could rent a 3/2 house for $300/month. If they found out you were American, that went up to close to 2k.
So, locals rent houses and then......distorted Capitalism happens. Americans pay 4-6 hundred.

"When it comes to Xena, there is also the obvious plus that the lesbian
gaze often overlaps with the heterosexual male gaze. So, for male
screenwriters, producers and directors, it isn't a huge leap of
imagination to create a character that appeals to a lesbian audience. To
put it bluntly, you put a woman in a leather-strapped shiny-tit shield,
send her jogging over a hill -- and literally everybody's happy."

Yes. Clearly. No reason at all except that one, that is the only possible, conceivable reason. IN fact, all they should do is one scene of Xena and that blonde chick kissing, then fade to black, because clearly the entire purpose of the remake will be completely justified and complete.
There's no reason to even show motion. Just music and a still of them smooching. The whole purpose of the remake will have been completely fulfilled because there is no other reason on earth to do a remake other than to clearly establish Xena as a lesbian.

She makes some good stuff. I mean if that "content" was available when I was about 16, if it were possible to kill yourself doing something while watching it, I would be one dead little jack-off.

For instance there was an episode where somehow they traveled into the future and met one of their fans that asked them if they "you know, like each a lot, a whole lot". And they'd respond "sure we love each other" but when they finally found out what the fan meant they were all "eeewww, no".
Plus Gab had a male love interest, some sort of proto messiah figure, who of course died horribly. Xena, however would do anything that moves. There were many episodes where she'd seduce other women as part of her plan.

where you want when you want instead of relying on the government to
decide where and when you go.
It's simple. You can't run a command economy that permits the free movement of people, and therefore goods and services, because such movement equilibrates prices according to demand, i.e., institutes a market system. Plastic surgeons in North Dakota will earn less than those in Beverly Hills, and therefore plastic surgeons will want to move from North Dakota to Beverly Hills. To make a command economy work - in this case to set the national price of a boob job - you absolutely HAVE to restrict the movement of plastic surgeons from North Dakota to Beverly Hills.
This is why the USSR instituted internal passports. Also, why the USSR collapsed. And why American leftists want to cut back on autos, and replace them with train travel. "Papers please?" gives them a chubby.

If France were to be suddenly disrupted by a Franco-Muzzie civil war, they likely would have bigger fish to fry than worrying about a tiny dot of land in the Pacific Ocean. A well-organized group of filibusterers could reach Clipperton by boat from San Diego. I think it might have an airfield, too. But you have to move quickly. Once it became clear that France was in no position to defend Clipperton, Mexico would probably annex it.
Bonus points for annexing it in the name of "France Libre Outre Mar."

I thought a car represented freedom and the chance to control your own destiny. Now apparently they don't care about that and just want a better gadget? I dunno.

Thanks to the item last night about Wisconsin trying to outlaw locale-specific bans on plastic bags, I wound up learning that there is a country (or more accurately, the semblence of one, an appendix, if you will) in Hawaii, Kalawao, that was created solely to encompass the peninsula on Molokai where the last functioning colony of isolated lepers formerly existed. There are a bunch of restrictions imposed on it, including who can come and go.

I'm going to take it in tomorrow to be looked at. I actually hope that if it isn't something that can be easily fixed that it isn't the c drive that fried, reconstructing THAT is a pain in the ass ( made easier because I have my old c drive from 4-5 months ago that I cloned to a solid state drive. That'll get me 90% back).
But assuming that I need a a new computer, which would you recommend? I took a quick look at the Microcenter website and came up with 2 possibilities. They are only $10 apart in price, so that's not an issue. Also, forget the OS, I have a license for both Win 7 ultimate and Win10 ultimate, I'll do a clean install of one of them (recommendations there? I'm on 7 now, should I go to 10?) just to get rid of all the crap that comes preinstalled.
First choice is the Acer predator AG-605, specs here:
http://www.microcenter.com/product/444271/Predator_AG3-605-UR1H_Desktop_Computer?ob=1
Second choice is the Dell XPS-8700
http://www.microcenter.com/quickView/451568/XPS_8700_Desktop_Computer?ob=1#BVRRWidgetID
They seem pretty comparable, but the Dell has an extra 4 GB RAM, which, all other things being equal, makes me lean that way. But maybe all other things aren't equal, what say y'all who know more than me?

Quick, who ruled Spain in 1492? Easy, right?
Okay, smarty pants--who ruled France in the same year? Who was the Pope? Who was Holy Roman Emperor?
Why is it that you know one, and not the other? Wasn't France the most powerful European nation that year? Making that King the most powerful man in Western Civilization--next to that Pope? (actually, two Popes that year) And that Holy Roman Emperor--he actually was the first ruler, the founder, of a House that held sway over large parts of Europe until 1918, and which at one time had the largest empire in the world. So why don't we know his name?
Takeaway: the story of history is being written every moment of our lives, whether we wish it so or no. What we do, as Lincoln said, marks us down to the latest generation. The powerful of the present may be remembered, to the extent they are remembered, for reasons having nothing to do with how they got to where they got, or nothing to do with themselves, but entirely because of someone or something else.
Elsewhise, Charles VIII would be as familiar a name as Ferdinand and Isabella. Of course, on this day that John Kasich won Ohio, we should remember that the capital he governs from was named for the flunky who was once brought in chains before Isabella, and of whose proposed journey Charles rejected. And of Frederick III--well, at least the House of Hapsburg is somewhat known, and did rule over that empire Columbus helped usher in, even if no one today knows who Fred was.
We cannot escape history, we will be remembered in spite of ourselves. Except when we aren't.

Just cutting back your beverages to nothing but ice cold filtered water can make a steady, gradual, but impressive difference. Cut out junk food like chips etc. little stuff like that can really matter.
I do feel sorry for girls though, your metabolisms are pretty much designed to pack on fat around your buns and thighs for when you're too pregnant to get around and get food.
I had a girlfriend I could almost watch gain wait when she ate candy. I can eat a whole table full of food and get a gutache but not put on weight. Sometimes its not fair.

Mark's Daily Apple has some good articles about intermittent fasting and becoming a fat-burner.
Once I did a four-day fast. I felt great; just tired easily although I felt more energetic (does that make sense?)
When I do a 36-hour fast, I get hungry about mid-afternoon and start planning a huge breakfast for the next day and go to bed a little early. Then I wake up and I'm no longer hungry. But I still have a bit of a special breakfast.

No, there never is.
But here's a interesting one: add coconut oil to your coffee in the morning. Yes, it's full of fat and calories, but the 'idea' is that you'll feel more sated early and less likely to over eat during lunch and/or snacking.
Doesn't seem lethal, at least.

OK Morons, help me out. I had a fuse blow tonight, and when I reset it and went to boot my computer, it told me "no hard drive".
I'm going to take it in tomorrow to be looked at. I actually hope
that if it isn't something that can be easily fixed that it isn't the c
drive that fried, reconstructing THAT is a pain in the ass ( made easier
because I have my old c drive from 4-5 months ago that I cloned to a
solid state drive. That'll get me 90% back).
But assuming that I need a a new computer, which would you
recommend? I took a quick look at the Microcenter website and came up
with 2 possibilities. They are only $10 apart in price, so that's not an
issue. Also, forget the OS, I have a license for both Win 7 ultimate
and Win10 ultimate, I'll do a clean install of one of them
(recommendations there? I'm on 7 now, should I go to 10?) just to get
rid of all the crap that comes preinstalled.
First choice is the Acer predator AG-605, specs here:
http://www.microcenter.com/product/444271/Predator_AG3-605-UR1H_Desktop_Computer?ob=1
Second choice is the Dell XPS-8700
http://www.microcenter.com/quickView/451568/XPS_8700_Desktop_Computer?ob=1#BVRRWidgetID
They seem pretty comparable, but the Dell has an extra 4 GB RAM,
which, all other things being equal, makes me lean that way. But maybe
all other things aren't equal, what say y'all who know more than me?
Posted by: Weirddave at March 15, 2016 11:32 PM (hOD4w)
Win10 is straight-up spyware. Don't look at the features, don't get technical.....look at the user license. I will not run Win10 even if the alternative is banging rocks together -- and the forced conversion from Win7/Win8? -- just say no.

I have a friend with a website/blog (it is a .com, if that means anything) that needs some freshening up, to say the least. It needs a visual overhaul and some sort of capacity to index past articles, reviews, bios, etc.
Is there any kind of book(s) I can get to learn this sort of thing?
Obviously there is; I guess the better question is, would it be literally be something like Website Design For Dummies, or do I need to start with something even more basic than that? Are there prerequisites ?

I was referring to your comment that if people and/or driverless cars drove correctly that they could do 140 mph instead of 4 mph.
It ignores the human need for individual control of that which we can control. We long ago gave up control of bus and train stuff. Individual cars will take much longer, IMO.

WD, this has probably already been answered, but check your PC's power supply. If one of the feeds, and IIRC it's the +12V one, goes, the hard drive won't spin, and the BIOS won't "see" the drive. Same thing happened to me a few months ago. And power supplies are the weak link that goes if there has been a power bump.

1) Your profile has to be unique. Everyone is looking for long walks on the beach and companionship and likes puppies. That doesn't stand out.
I said something like "everyone's looking for compatible interests, here are things I have done which you haven't", and made the list a mix of actual humble things (worked on a garbage truck), humble brag things (I forget what I used, but sort of self-deprecating story about the time I was at the Presidential Palace in Budapest - but more humble, that's not what I used), and slightly outre (posed nude for art classes).
2) Don't wait for pokes and winks and e-mails. You're the guy, you're supposed to be the pursuer.
Match has excellent search functions. How many miles away from where you are; what body type; what level of education; what race; etc.
So, you pick your perfect criteria and you search. You'll find that all of those girls are out of your league. You start relaxing your criteria.
Also, you can search for things specific to you that will resonate. I like camping, but there's nothing about girls the like camping that makes them immediately see a kinship.
I searched for languages spoken, because speaking French and German was my in with a couple of the girls. I forget what other categories are, but you may find a niche where you are strong.
3) Approach them. Study the profile and figure out something unique about them. Write an individualized e-mail. Don't pick up on the main thing. Again, not "I see you like walks on the beaches too". Say, "I see you have a Labrador! I grew up with Labradors, they're the sweetest. What's yours' name?"
Then you'll have some banter. Then you get to "you're really interesting, I'd love to meet you for X", whichever X you're comfortable with.
Don't take rejection personally, they're all screening you. Don't be afraid to cut your losses and bail out either.

I'd look into something like Wordpress, which is the infrastructure for all of the heavy lifting in creating a modern blog with all the amenities. That way you concentrate on aesthetics more than code.
The web today is like any other field of software. Unless you plan to go into the business of selling infrastructure tools, it makes no sense to create your own. Way back when, I could say I know three dozen people who'd written a database program. This was before dBase and when memory was so precious it made sense for those with the ability to code a custom program for the need of the moment. A few years later you wouldn't dream of creating a database program unless you were going into the business. It made far more sense to learn dBase's language than the language needed to code your own dBase.

I use Dreamhost, a host for storage. They have forums and self-help stuff on their website. Good chance that your host has something like that.
To install Wordpress on a hosting service usually only requires a login name and password. Most of them use something called a 'dashboard'. Just poking around your host's site may reveal several avenues to installing a Wordpress installation.
Again, the idea is that since Wordpress is almost a universal option on host sites now, there is more advice on how to install, manage, and maintain one on your host than I could possibly insert here.

Exactly! No third date stuff unless that date was to a wedding chapel. Last time I dated I was 18. Lol, I just realized that even though we got married at 19 (our parents had a meeting and decided that since neither of us was interested in playing the field it was silly to make to horny kids wait) John *wasn't* 19 yet when he proposed. The fact that I was 6 months older than him rarely matters, other than that I was already 36 when he died and he was still 35.

One has enjoyed the tidy little meal but is are still hungry.
A more comfortable alternative is not so tasty or attractive food and no hunger; a full belly.
Peanuts, peanut butter (the kind with the list of ingredients: peanuts, less than %1 salt -period), broiled boneless, skinless chicken, tuna, salmon, frozen and canned vegetables, eggs. One can eat these foods stay healthy and lose weight. You can also cheat a little.

Yeah once you do without a while? Even slightly sweet stuff is overpowering. I haven't drunk a coke in like 8 years now and I tried one. It was horrific, like power chugging syrup in a contest with other cops in a diner for who is all that is man.
I was really, really disappointed I had to give up iced tea but I've grown to love the flavor of just ice cold water from a brita filter pitcher. Its so amazingly thirst quenching, I drink like 3-5 quarts a day.

Am I not eating enough? Bad program?
My trainer tells me to eat a protein, fat and carbs. Eat slowly, enjoy it. If I want a burger, eat it and enjoy it. Everything in moderation. he just wants me healthy.
I can get carried away. My jeans felt tight, so I started dieting. I was lazy for about 3 months. So now I'm trying to eat better.

Again, the idea is that since Wordpress is almost a universal option on host sites now, there is more advice on how to install, manage, and maintain one on your host than I could possibly insert here.

Yeah I have Wordpress already on my site.
After a few minutes wandering around the dashboard I have no idea what could make the site look better or where it is, so I get discouraged and leave it as is.

Yes.
Sex is no longer an intimate act.
I was amused while overhearing a conversation between two youngish cow-orkers. One girl was admonishing the other for lending a guy $100 after she had only dated him a few times. She doesn't really know him! How can she trust him?
These are girls who rarely wait as "long" as three dates.
Money is important, I guess.

Look for the place in the settings where it says "Theme." this is an overall thing you can change to easily alter every aspect of any blog to make it look different (presumably "better."
Find out what "Theme" you currently have. THen search the Wordpress site for other "themes." Choose one, install it, and everything will look as you want it to.

I was having a terrible time with sinus allergies and I've found that coffee isn't as efficient of hydrator for me as water but I was drinking enough coffee that I didn't *need* water. I didn't exactly give up coffee for Lent, but for a Lent-like-period I can have *either* a large cup of coffee with milk and Bourbon Carmel syrup, a glass of wine, or a bottle of beer (which I recently started drinking lately so as to not hate the taste in social situations). I was drinking enough coffee before that it definitely helps avoid headaches if I have some at least every couple of days, but now I'm actually drinking water as well and I think it really has helped at least some.

You mean switch to Wordpress? It's an established site, I think she'd lose a lot of readers and advertisers if she did that.
Posted by: Tammy al-Thor
Wordpress is like an app; Opera browser or Netscape 1.8. A host is like a computer.
The overriding thing is her host.
If she has a host like Dreamhost or *cough* godaddy.com, she has the ability to change the software through the host's interface.
If her host has Wordpress on their menu of installation options, she can install it, turn on a redirect to the new installation, and not lose a single reader ... (it may take a few hours, but the redirect will be seamless.)
Need to know her host service. And how she advertises to make a worthwhile opinion.

The quickest way is to look for the option 'Appearance' on the left toolbar, drop down to 'Themes'.
That set of themes that shows up are approved by the Wordpress management*. They will almost always work with previous installations. Not always, but most of the time.
If you're looking for more of a configured, custom site, yes, you can get an IT guy get it down to your T.

Introducing the text of the "About" page of the website.
Knit'n Kitten Fiber Arts is the combination of nearly four decades of needlework experience and a life-long desire to help create a "Safe place for women."
Our mission statement is "Knit'n Kitten Fiber Arts, Inc. of League City, TX is a family run not-for-profit business focused on presenting items from Texas fiber artists, supplies for a broad range of fiber arts, and finished products from a variety of organizations involved in fighting human trafficking or otherwise assisting women to care for themselves and their families with dignity." which I think pretty well encapsulates the "what" of the shop.
The "why" Is because I am a big believer in the "teach a man to fish" version of philanthropy and believe that needlework and human aspiration for a better life fit very well together. This is because producing a competent and marketable item usually requires only moderate physical and mental ability and minimal education or finance yet can be scaled up as resources and ability increase. Handicraft is also an effective therapy tool for those who have been exploited since a reasonable first item can generally be produced in a short amount of time, giving the creator the tangible proof that they can produce something of value and beauty even in the midst of a disastrously broken life. The initial goal of the shop is to provide a market for such items, first here online and then in a brick-and-mortar site in the Houston area, to provide creative as well as job and financial experience to those served by local, national, and international organizations. As the shop grows and there are profits, those profits will go towards things like capital equipment or supply grants for those who already have a funding method as well as helping organizations that are donation dependent find market opportunities that best fit their location and those they serve.

That's the secret to Gingy and I. We have a simple, unspoken agreement. I do what I want to do, and she does what she wants to do, but we do within the context of the bigger US.
For example, I agree to work my fingers to the bone to support the family. I'll take a bullet for her or the kids w/o thinking. My entire being will be dedicated to providing her with a comfortable lifestyle.
In return, she agrees to take the kid to school and spend her days knitting and eating Bon bons.
See? Completely equatable. We both benefi.......HEY!
I want a recount, what fool agreed to this shit anyway?

Yes, it is illuminating. I disagree with his thoughts on interest, but have to be honest enough to admit that the reason I disagree is because I'm living on the interest (well, mostly, there's some principle and Aid to Dependent Children in there too) from John's life insurance so I have a conflict of interest there. On the other hand, I had no problem with his theory for why G-d made the husband the one in charge, in fact found it amusing and possibly correct, when I suspect many modern women would be deeply offended by it.

Thats because the Metro keeps catching on fire (just did again on Monday at McPhereson Square) so the brand new WMATA Commissioner ordered the the subway shut down for 30 hours so they can inspect the wiring or something. I appreciate the long over due concern but the timing is sucktastic.

Nash, who was a very hard working dog and just reaching his prime.

1) Got shellacked in his home state
2) Guaranteed Trump wins in IL and MO
3) Contributed substantially to Trump's MOV in NC
4) Got about as many votes in Ohio as "Other"
Carson's final FU to Cruz was to deliver MO to The Donald, ensuring that Cruz gets shut-out which is pretty much the worst result for him.
The worst result for ME is that I just got my first Johnny MailManSon "We Did IT!!!" email this morning. Fvck.

I have to admit that I'm curious about North Korea, just as I was curious about Red China before Tricky Dick started making nice with them. Cultures so totally alien to the Western World hold a certain amount of fascination, after all....
