Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Saturday Overnight Open Thread (10/19/19)Hey Kids! You might just have to get your own damn NetFlix account. For a much longer time than anyone could have really expected, Netflix’s surprisingly reasonable willingness to look the other way when it came to mass password-sharing was a bright spot in an otherwise cruel and merciless universe. But since nothing gold can ever stay, it seems these halcyon days of virtually limitless password swapping are numbered. In the company’s third-quarter earnings interview on Wednesday, Netflix executives announced that they’re keeping an eye on password sharing and are exploring ways to crack down on the practice. The company didn’t detail any specific course of action, but, as the Daily Dot posited, future attempts to curb password swapping will likely involve limiting the number of devices or IP addresses that can be linked to any one account. Logically, this is a perfectly reasonable step for the streaming service to take, and various other competitors in the streaming space have already begun flirting with similar tactics. Disney+ initially announced its subscriptions would be limited to 10 devices, but later claimed the 10-device limit would only apply to downloads on mobile devices following pushback from customers. The platform will still limit the number of devices that can be streaming at once to four — a policy common across streaming services, including Netflix. So if you're driving through the Badlands, be careful. Bison return to Badlands National Park. Little known, highly depressing fact: the bear on California’s state flag doesn’t exist anymore. It’s a California grizzly, and they were hunted to extinction in the 75 years following the Gold Rush, which began in 1848. The United States maintains a checkered-to-woeful history with much of its iconic wildlife. Consider its national bird and national mammal, the bald eagle and bison, respectively. In 1963, there were only 417 pairs of nesting bald eagles left in the contiguous 48 states. Poaching, synthetic insecticides and habitat disruption all contributed to the decline. Bison, meanwhile, once dominated North America; an estimated 30-60 million roamed the continent in the 1500s. By the year 1884, that number was down to an astonishing 325. Each of those creatures has made a massive comeback in the last 100 years or so, though, thanks to hard-fought battles by conservationists. The bald eagle was famously removed from the endangered species act in the mid-1990s, and is now humming along (relatively) thanks to a variety of protective measures. And bison, which climbed to nearly 250,000 by the end of the 1990s, are having a good century. Capitalism is not alive and well in Columbus, OH. COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — Columbus City Attorney Zach Klein says a lingerie store that doubled as a strip club has been shut down. Klein announced Monday that Columbus secured an emergency court order to vacate and shutter an east side lingerie store located at 1471 East Livingston Avenue, called “Sexxy 4 Less” that was a front for an underground strip club called “Club Sexxy.” According to court documents, the Columbus Division of Police began covert surveillance of the premises earlier this summer, obtaining evidence of illegal drug and alcohol sales. Klein also states that investigators also linked a July shootout at the premises to a homicide that had occurred a month earlier. Families with children lived in apartments directly above the lingerie store. “There were armed security guards with body armor, and even the dancers were packing heat, which tells you all you need to know about the danger this illegal club posed to employees, patrons, and the residents living there,” said Columbus City Attorney Zach Klein. Alabama freshman Connor Bruce Croll was arrested in Tuscaloosa on Sunday morning after cops say he called in a false bomb threat to LSU’s Tiger Stadium. According to the police, Croll did so because he wanted to get the game canceled and save his friend a bunch of money. Croll is being held in Tuscaloosa County jail pending charges after being listed as a fugitive from justice, per Tuscaloosa News. An Alabama spokesperson told the News, “Threats and pranks can have serious ramifications and necessitate an appropriate response. The university and UAPD are cooperating fully with the investigation, but we cannot provide any additional details on a pending matter.” He will likely be charged in Baton Rouge. Will we ever run out of Participation Trophies? Only time will tell. Kyle Williams told NBC10 he knew he was dangerously close to breaking the rules Saturday morning when his youth football team, the Conshohocken Golden Bears, went up 30 to 0. The rules of the Keystone Sports League, which features kids no older than 7 years of age, prevent a team from going up by more than 30 points. “Less than two minutes left I called a timeout because I wanted to pull the starters off the field,” Williams said. “I put kids in there who normally never played.” When one of the second stringers, a 5-year-old boy, got the ball he ran toward the end zone as Williams ran along the sideline and repeatedly yelled for him to fall down. The boy still scored however, putting the team up 36 to 0. Now Williams is facing a possible $500 fine and a 2-game suspension. “I have three sons,” Williams said. “I’m not gonna tell my son, especially if he’s running the ball, ‘Don’t go out there and give it your all.’” Did you know that the company which made your Grandmother's sewing machine also made weapons of war? The M1911A1 handgun was designed by prolific arms developer John Moses Browning. The slab-sided semi-automatic handgun holds seven rounds of .45 ACP ammunition and was the standard sidearm of the U.S. military from World War I to the 1980s, a remarkable longevity. During World War I and World War II, companies that produced civilian machinery retooled to produce weapons, including the 1911. The Union Switch and Signal company, maker of railroad equipment, made the firearm. So did the typewriter manufacturer Remington Rand. In 1939, the U.S. War Department contracted the Singer Sewing Machine Company to build 500 1911A1s. The contract, Educational Order W-ORD-396, was a test to see if Singer could produce 100 guns a day, a number it thought was doable. The War Department got its handguns, serial number series S800001-S800500, but the company was unable to live up to the pace of 100 guns a day. This story has been floating around for the better part of a week now. Too funny not to put it in a Saturday ONT. How to seduce a woman, if you are a Genius Award Winner. A. [ ] Whisper sweet nothings in her ear? B. [ ] Gift her with flowers and candy? C. [X] Whip out your penis and hope for the best? Nicholas Sheehy, 23, was arrested Friday afternoon at the Dollar General in Ottumwa, a city about 85 miles southeast of Des Moines. Sheehy, an Ottumwa resident, was charged with indecent exposure, a serious misdemeanor. When confronted by police, Sheehy “admitted that he ‘whipped it out’ referring to his penis,” a criminal complaint alleges. “The defendant stated that he had seen someone do it in a pornographic film and believed that the female patron may respond to it sexually.” Instead, the woman contacted cops, who reported that Sheehy “admitted that he exposed himself for sexual gratification.” Pictured above, Sheehy was booked into the Wapello County jail, from which he was released after posting $1000 bond.

A .40-65 "86 Winchester, carried by my gggg-uncle Fred Graves, (son of Graves child survivors of the Donner Party.) He was a turn of the 20th century California Ranger. Of course, I can't prove anything, but as far as I can see, it can't be disproved, either.

" 'I have three sons," Williams said. "I'm not gonna tell my son, especially if he's running the ball, 'Don't go out there and give it your all.' "
Except that that's exactly what he did to someone else's son, who'd never gotten a chance to play in the game before. He yelled at a five year old to fall down so the kid couldn't get a touchdown. Posted by: nerdygirl at October 19, 2019 10:05 PM (+lVUW) 14
At this very moment, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton are having a "conversation" in a hall in Portland!
It's very strange - the event allegedly sold out, but Andy Ngo (who is attending) tweeted a picture fifteen minutes before the event was supposed to start showing that about two-thirds of the seats in the front section were empty. The organizers took special steps to prevent the resale of tickets - after all, the secondary market for Hillary and Chelsea tickets is huge. The cheapest tickets cost $45 (which includes a copy of the book that Hillary and Chelsea "wrote"), while the most expensive tickets were $220, which I'm sure includes a meet-and-greet with Hillary and Chelsea. Oh - and the total seating capacity of the hall is 850. Hillary's appeal is becoming more selective, you see. Ngo described the crowd as "filled with middle-age white women, their husbands, and gay men." I'm so sorry I'm missing out. Posted by: The ARC of History! at October 19, 2019 10:07 PM (I2/tG) 15

In a thread a few days ago a commenter said Netfllix never made a dime and was a losing venture. I said they did report a profit this quarter and have done so for a few quarters now though I put out the option that it was accounting tricks. I also said that they have probably lost more money in previous years as to overwhelm their recent profits. BTW, all this is major paraphrase.
But to be clear, the commenter was right. Netflix is hemmoraghing cash regardless of a reported profit the last few quarters. It is a money losing machine. My personal issue with Netflix other than their lefty bias is they robbed me. I quite the site long ago but checked in on the account and found they were charging my CC with Brazilian Reals. No way anyone got my account info in a normal way. Somehow someone in Brazil logged on to my "cancelled" account and started charging it in Reals. When I called them the CS rep admitted this was a thing and not singular to me. I was done with them from that day on. Cancelled everything. I should follow up with them as they owe me money., My suggestion is to check even if you cancelled nutflix. In this day and age there is cancelling, and there is cancelling. These guys never really cancel an account unless you stomp on them about it. Posted by: Quint at October 19, 2019 10:24 PM (n13/j) 64

Trump campaigned a couple of times in Oregon (not in Portland) last time, and I'm sure will do so again this time - the Trump campaign is allegedly targeting Oregon (at least according to Hillary). A majority of Oregon voters outside of the county that Portland is in voted for Trump - however, given Portland's North Korean-level voting patterns, Trump still lost by ten points statewide. I continue in my belief that I could see a Republican presidential candidate winning in Oregon, but it wouldn't matter, since that would mean a Republican landslide nationally.

Re the Netflix limitations.
When we used to have Netflix (we cancelled when they gave the the Obama's $$$ for nothing, and told them that was the reason) we did share our password with our son. Gonna limit people to 10 devices?! Oh no, the horror! I can't even fathom having 10 devices that Netflix would be on. My home computers, that's two. My tablet, my phone, ok we're up to 4. A couple to your trusted family members, we're at six. Who the hell needs more than 10. If you have that many devices, you are plenty well off and can just go ahead and buy another subscription.

"Kyle Williams told NBC10 he knew he was dangerously close to breaking
the rules Saturday morning when his youth football team, the Conshohocken Golden Bears, went up 30 to 0. The rules of the Keystone Sports League, which features kids no older than 7 years of age, prevent a team from going up by more than 30 points. ...... Now Williams is facing a possible $500 fine and a 2-game suspension." The rule is poorly worded/conceived. The game should *end* when one team is up by 30, not prevent the team from scoring. If they want to keep the game going, then don't count the points scored by the winning team. Clearly, the league is run by idiots, but what else is new. *cough* Bud Selig *cough cough* Posted by: pookysgirl, tote anthropologist at October 19, 2019 10:29 PM (XKZwp) 86

Nice Twatter takedown of the 'moderate' Tulsi Gabbard. Her going after Kameltoe and Skankles is great but lest anyone forget, she comes from the toxic socialist stew that is Hawaii. (Mazie Hirono, anyone? Or Hawaiian judge blocks Trump [again], anyone?)

Space Oddity - early Prog Rock
Rainy Night In Georgia - early Philly Soul (I think) I was also grooving on the Moody Blues last night.

I've noticed a lot of late 1960s songs point to the 1970s, and a lot of late 1970s songs point to the 1980s.
Cases in point: I'd bet most people think Rainy Night In Georgia is a 70s song. It came out late 1960s. And Gary Numan's Cars, as well as a lot of Blondie's early stuff, actually came out in the late 1970s. Posted by: qdpsteve at October 19, 2019 10:54 PM (L2ZTs) 177

Posted by: Blonde Morticia at October 19, 2019 10:39 PM (13CQC) put it in the worst section of a big city.

They moved the PGA Tour even out of Doral and put it in Mexico. i have no problem with and even in Mexico, i think it is pretty cool really. But the people against Trump will do anything and everything to otherise him. They think it is ok to trash him and all near him incessantly and we will not respond in kind when a lefty Dem gets in I don't think Doral is a big issue here but what is an issue is how easy it is to stop the president when he wants to do something.

They want us to abandon cultural tent posts. But the NFL means less to me as they have chosen to be more divisive and less of an American constant. Look at late night tv. Years ago, late night hosts brought the country together. It was late and nothing else was on. We had to share the same experience. Now, almost no conservatives watch late night tv.

Did PantyFa show up at the Hillz and Chubz bun-toss in Portland?
They were busy today engaging in the most Portland of activities - a strike by a militant burger worker's union, which is part of the International Workers of The World. (I am not making this up.) Among other things, the union is demanding a five buck an hour raise, full medical benefits for all (including part-time workers), and the right to wear left-wing propaganda on the job. The workers put up a "picket line", which consisted of refusing to let anyone into the restaurant for a couple of hours, and refusing to let anyone use the driven. The cops did nothing, of course.

Good evening, Horde, and Thanks, MisHum for another rollicking ONT.
LOVE the SNJ - will definitely be using that. I do have a MIL update, but it's late and we just got home. Mom's doing okay, all things considered, but has been diagnosed with breast cancer (no details on stage, etc). Had left ankle operated on yesterday, and is currently in step-down from ICU. Unfortunately, her SO isn't faring as well: he transitioned to Hospice this afternoon. The two units' nurses thoughtfully arranged for Mom to visit with him one last time: they help hands and tried to look at each other. It was the most beautiful, heartbreaking things I've ever witnessed. Finally, our breast cancer walk this morning was wonderful, and out little team ended up #2 in fundraising among over 400 teams total. And your humble ibguy ended up #7 in the individual standings, among some 2,600. Posted by: ibguy at October 19, 2019 11:09 PM (EHVbt) 230

It's been eight days now, and the Portland cops have still made no arrests in the case of the Antifa-guy killed by an SUV riddled with bullet holes, and have yet to provide any explanation of what happened, thereby complying with Antifa's demand that no one talk to the news media.

pookysgirl, I actually *like* the Abba albums Super Trouper and The Visitors.
The Visitors ends with a surprisingly touching IMHO song about death, called Like An Angel Passing Through My Room. Kind of haunting. Posted by: qdpsteve at October 19, 2019 11:09 PM (L2ZTs) I don't remember what album(s) we were forced to listen to, I must have blocked it from my memory. We were hard rock children, my parents were... not. My mother once took a meat tenderizer to a cassette of my brother's that she had previously forbidden. (To be fair, the lyrics were objectionable.) If you wanted to argue for certain music, your argument had better be solid, with music theory to back it up. I still remember a heated discussion on the harmonization of one song on the radio-and that was between my parents! I had a bizarre childhood, but in retrospect, arguing was a form of love.

For real, if you shot a nice buck in 1930, that
would get into a small town paper. I read yeas ago that Texas has ten times the deer population the USA had 90 years ago. The lefty greens talk about the good ol days but they have not freaking clue. Posted by: Quint at October 19, 2019 11:47 PM (n13/j) Probably why chronic wasting disease has jumped from Congress to the deer population; just too many of them. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at October 19, 2019 11:50 PM (QugKX) Lots of lefty areas where they don't allow hunting. The deer suffer from starvation and disease. A lot of people get into car accidents too. Damn the lefties are dumb. As for Congress, there are likely too many but my view is to limit their time spent scewing us over. They are a congress, a meeting. They should meet for a short period and then go the freak home. It should not be a primary job. It should be a meeting to get some things done and them go home.

The North American Crocodiles were nearly extinct... But some Army base in Florida (IIRC) has a research reactor with a runoff moat that makes a perfect, warm brackish area for the crocs to hang out and breed, and they've bounced back to a population in the hundreds and growing.
The Army even changed the firing ranges once they figured out was going on, to protect them. Plus: croc moat, and that's pretty awesome. Posted by: Yudhishthira's Dice at October 19, 2019 11:57 PM (5aX2M) 347
Too many deer were hired as Congressional aides, and you know how it is with Congress Critters... a couple of side cars after hours, a little blow, the next thing you know your Congress Critter is on all fours singing John Deere Green... chronic wasting disease spreads to the deer and then you get a mass die-off.

95 After my grandma died, my mom and her sisters inherited Gerber stock that had sat for years growing in value.
I should check and see what their stock's worth these days. Gerber's been sold a number of times since Frank Gerber started it. Nestle, Novartis, etc. My dad was Gerber's head instrument tech for quite a few years until he retired. Maternal grandfather and his first cousin (both Kingsfords) worked there and the latter is in the photo of the 1930's vintage car Gerber used for their early sales. Posted by: Additional Blond Agent, STEM guy They were required to sell for the Nestle buyout. It was at something like $24 or $26 per share, and Nestle bought it at over $40. So they did well. There were people in the Fremont area who made a bundle. My younger sister had bought some shares shortly before the buyout, not knowing that it was coming. She almost doubled her money within a couple of months. If she'd bought a lot, it would have looked like insider trading. Posted by: nerdygirl at October 20, 2019 12:25 AM (+lVUW) 424

Chevy had Crew Cabs all the way back to the "Square" body style starting in appx. '76 or so.
But only available in 1 ton, or above. The first half-ton four door pickemup truck was the Ford F-150 Super Crew, appx, yr. 2000. Dodge Power Wagon was available as Crew Cab all the way back to the early '60s. But then, EVERY Power Wagon was a 3/4 ton or 1 ton or greater. Ford offered the Super Crew in the F-150, starting 'round 82 or so. But no four-door "non commercial" cabs till 2000 or so, unless you count the heavy duty F-650 2-1/2 ton trucks, most often sold to Utility Companies. International Harvester has had 4 door trucks in the 2 ton range and above, since forever. But IH dropped out of the private pickemup truck market 'round 71 or so. Such is a pity.

Looking at F-series history. The line before the f-xxx line was the F-1, F-2, F-3 and F-4. The F-1 became the F-100, the F-2 and -3 became the F-250, and the F-4 became the F-350. The F-150 came along in the '70s, and for several years, you had both the F-100 and F-150. The F-100 was dropped somewhere around '80 or so. We had a '72 F-100. 302.

Hits are generally less prone to being timeless. Mostly because hits were chasing the formula of something that was previously successful. If not, they were copied and became dated through the same process. Posted by: garrett at October 20, 2019 01:33 AM (ypTww) 508

Posted by: Quint at October 20, 2019 01:23 AM (n13/j) I agree about roasting garlic to take away some of its, uh, pungency. I use roasted garlic as a sandwich spread (warm roasted cloves fork mashed into a paste using parmigiano reggiano as the 'abrasive' in lieu of salt) and for garlic bread (mixing softened butter into the garlic/cheese mash before spreading on bread and baking). But even the corrected Slimes recipe did not call for roasted garlic cloves.

But the MSM (including Fox) kept yammering on Doral so now the conf will now be held at.. ... Camp David. The conf will be at the least attractive venue choice and the one with the biggest logistical hassle for the MSM.

The cleaning. Heh. We lovingly used to call mom Mrs. Clean. Now she doesn't notice, and when I do the cleaning, she wonders why I'm doing it.

My friends thought it was weird when I automatically took my shoes off when I came to their house, or told them to take theirs off when they came to mine. Yeah. Better to do that than endure mom's wrath.

97 Nice Twatter takedown of the 'moderate' Tulsi Gabbard. Her going after Kameltoe and Skankles is great but lest anyone forget, she comes from the toxic socialist stew that is Hawaii. (Mazie Hirono, anyone? Or Hawaiian judge blocks Trump [again], anyone?) As the Twat thread shows, she's batshit crazy, but she isn't as batshit crazy insane as the rest of the Democrat Klown Kar Kandidates. I call that damning with faint praise. Never forget she called the C-in-C, her boss, a pimp. No wonder the soyboys on the right are in love with her.

My life, I get it. Same here. One of Dad's friend's passed suddenly from a heart attack shortly after Dad. Has a beautiful home. No shoes allowed in the house, but you could smoke. Has a wonderful bar with a beautiful view in his home. M, W and F was happy hour. Come one come all.
I was so disgusted at his wake. His niece thought it was so cool she was wearing shoes in his home, yet no smoking allowed. She bragged about wearing shoes in the house. Posted by: Infidel at October 20, 2019 05:02 AM (m+0jM) 554
>>At work I use wtf are we listening to? very often
Posted by: Skip We have sirius xm at work. But the adjoining fast food place has control of the choice of station. For a long time it was set to the Garth Brooks station. Now it's 60s on 6. I don't mind it, and most of the customers think it's fun, even the younger ones comment on it being music their parents played when they were kids.

If it hadn't been his wake, I would have smacked the bitch. Although, thinking back, he may have enjoyed that looking down at us. lol. He was that kinda guy.

I hate oldies (60,70,80s), heard them all 10,000 times already.
And those kind of stations play the same songs every day, for awhile someonewasplaying Sirius oldies whichplayedthe same songs thed commercial station plays. Posted by: Skip at October 20, 2019 05:13 AM (ZCEU2) 560
It was good. Got to feed the freezer too. Now I think it's time for bed. Laundry is going and the 'ol bod is sore.
Oh, was going thru some drawers in a hutch that was grandma's. today, found a packet of 2 Bayer aspirin that expired in 7/85. Posted by: Infidel at October 20, 2019 05:15 AM (m+0jM) 561
The same songs played over and over. Yeah, you can almost set your clock by it! I can easily tune it out, and customers are in and out fairly quick so they don't notice that. I agree about tho about rather having a better mix of music.

From '85! My brother and I started going through the basement here. No meds, but lots and lots! of really old stuff. Amazing how much stuff is down there.

Found a small box with military pins/medals(?) that were my maternal grandfathers. Must be WW1 era. In the box was also a small rock that was sort of heart shaped. Crudely engraved on it were my grandfather + grandmother's initials. So sweet!
Posted by: My life is insanity at October 20, 2019 05:24 AM (Z/jzm) 565
MLii - have you identified any of the medals?
Posted by: Skip at October 20, 2019 05:26 AM (ZCEU2) 566
No, not yet.

Grandpa died when I was 5. I never really knew him, and the only personal stories I ever heard were how he and grandma met, how his early childhood was really rough, hunting stories that my dad experienced with him as his son in law, and that at one point when my mom was younger, he had tuberculosis. (That's not what killed him tho). After he died, grandma never talked about him.

Yeah, i am. I was thinking i should be able to find out his service dates somewhere, too.

Many medals awarded haved stayed the same for last 100 years, also could be theater or command, as well as ceremonial.
I think we have my Father-in-law's from WWII. Posted by: Skip at October 20, 2019 05:47 AM (ZCEU2) 572

Posted by: My life is insanity It's amazing what you can, and can't find. If he was a WW2 vet, a lot of the service records were destroyed in a fire in 1973 Posted by: Bruce at October 20, 2019 05:48 AM (vd8XM) Posted by: teej at October 20, 2019 05:51 AM (hFbrr) 574

> And Gary Numan's Cars, as well as a lot of Blondie's early stuff, actually came out in the late 1970s.
Devo was formed in 1973, so not even late 70s for them. First album and national TV appearance in '78. Posted by: Rodrigo Borgia (Russian Asset, also Spartacus) at October 20, 2019 05:57 AM (Do2h6) 577

> Is there any hit/pop music from the 1960s that *doesn't* sound dated today?
Jimi Hendrix sounds dated, it's just that the date is somewhere around 4,000 AD. Posted by: Rodrigo Borgia (Russian Asset, also Spartacus) at October 20, 2019 06:01 AM (Do2h6) 581
