Filmmakers march forward with plans to make Revolutionary War movie in N.C.

It's set to be directed by outspoken conservative Nick Searcy, and aims to be historically accurate. I'll be the first in line to see it if it does get made, the southern campaigns of the Revolution are fascinating. Washington was fixated on New York while the war was won down south.

Of course they want to ban it for everyone, rather than just opting themselves out.

I nay just be spitballing here, but I am willing to bet any number of them haven't played a version of Secret Santa called Greedy Santa wherein you may steal gifts from others, within a framework of rules (no more than three steals per gift, and so forth). The entriggering in that one would be the stuff of legends.

Tonight, I cancelled the subscription. Turns out a number of their new apps won't run on Windows 7.

Caveat Emptor.

Though I'm sure if enough folks wrote to Adobe and said, "As a transitioning woman of color, I am offended that Adobe Animate will not run under Windows 7. Yet more colonization!" then I'm sure Adobe would double-time their Windows 7 apps forever.

You probably already know this, but Windows 7 is EoL and will not be supported past the second week of January. If Adobe's model is a subscription service that requires an always-on internet connection, there's no incentive for them to support an operating system that is never going to receive another security fix.

81 I'm giving away my age of 29 here, but I recall as a youngin' my disillusionment when, after staying home from school when sick or something like that, I came to find that weekday daytime television was a complete and utter wasteland!

No cartoons! There were only three (3) stations, and feeling gypped - despite the channel selector having 13 or something like that, there was that whole other knob selector called UHF, that didn't have a damn thing on it either.

The shows were all yucky - "Days Of Our Lives As the World Turns Our Guiding Light". What's the use of staying home sick if there isn't Johnny Quest reruns or some quality Victory at Sea or something?

Yes, it will still work. However, there won't be any more security patches when new holes and exploits are discovered. With time, it becomes more and more vulnerable to hack attack.

They are offering some extended service thingy for enterprise customers for several years. Which means security patches, but these will not be made available to the public.

Posted by: Ladyl at November 21, 2019 10:19 PM (TdMsT)


Yes, the operating system will continue to work as before. What will change is that, in absence of security patches, it will become vulnerable to any exploits that are discovered in the future but for which fixes are not backported to Win7. Hardware drivers are unlikely to be developed with Win7 compatibility in mind, so new hardware (printers and such) are not guaranteed to work with it. New software will be hit-or-miss. It may work, but if it doesn't, you aren't likely to get anyone to support it on that platform.

The same thing happened to XP and, broadly speaking, any other technology that's old enough that the vendor no longer has any incentive to support it. It's coming up on 10 years old, and many newer computers won't support it at all, even if you have a copy that you want to install over the Win10 that came with it.

I believe Win 7 system will still function, but not have any further security updates, so you may be vulnerable to future attacks.

I don't think the current updates include a kill switch that crashes and bricks the system on 1 Jan 2020, but I wouldn't put it past Bill G.

Any new software packages will probably not be able to run under Win 7.

I stubbornly stuck to my old XP x64 install for years. I had installs of Windows 7 and then 8 and 10 all set up, but I stuck with XP well after it's EOL.

What finally prompted me to move was Chrome dropped development and later versions would no longer work with XP. It was all right for a while, until sites just stopped working as new features were used.

It finally got to be too much, and I switched. I was gonna go to Win7 x64 Ultimate install, but it turned out I just went straight to Win 10 pretty much.

I use Classic Shell which makes things usuable for me.

208 >The pope said

No, not really. Before everyone starts to panic, read the source material, and I mean dig down as far as you can. This is the most misquoted and misrepresented pope possibly in living memory. Admittedly, he doesn't do himself any favors with his penchant for speaking off the cuff and never correcting the record, but hey.

About the "world government:" first off, it's from Scalfari, an atheist buddy of the pope from way back. Why are they buddies? Who knows. My best friend is a pagan communist and I'm a traditionalist Catholic. We don't talk politics. Scalfari is notorious for putting words into the pontiff's mouth and implying intent that, upon further reading, isn't evident. So to with this. The article makes no mention whatsoever of a world government, but does imply that the pope thinks things would be better if the Church had a guiding role over secular governments. You know, like every pope going back to at least St Martin. This is not new or unique, and the furthest thing from a realistic "threat."

Eco Sins: this is another case of the pope stating orthodoxy in an unorthodox way. Even the linked LifeSiteNews article admits that what he's saying has been the case from day one (being good stewards), but it's poorly phrased by inventing a new name for old sin. It's PR, folks. Sloppy PR, but PR nonetheless. He might try to change the catechism to make an implicit explicit (for my brothers and sisters, 340-344 are the relevant paragraphs), but even that's just hot air at this point.

Even his talk about the death penalty is explicitly the opinion of one pope and not considered infallible (i.e. it can and probably will be revised at some point). The Church has always been leery of capital punishment: this particular pope has an Obaman penchant for "legislating" (wrong word, but it will do for now) his own personal opinions, but because of how he does it, they have the authority and impermanence of Executive Orders.

Tl;dr: this is all overblown and mostly the fault of bad reporting and sloppy PR speak.

-Tonypete

That is a valid criticism. The Holy Father is prone to running his mouth without really thinking of how it's going to be perceived and used against him. He's said plenty of good things, and when he's backed into a corner he's invariably orthodox, but he's got that Jesuit habit of thinking he's always the smartest guy in the room. He's not my favorite pope by a long shot, but he is too often maligned because of his willingness to spout off without considering his audience.

I hated being forced to give to The United Way where for every dollar contributed around 85-90 cents went for 'overhead'.

Posted by: M. Bibliophile at November 21, 2019 11:13 PM (FaG+p)

Oh, I think we know why. What I can't fathom is how it became so widespread.

Consider, however, that the Latin Mass was, in some places, done so badly that perhaps it needed to be wiped out and brought back to be made whole.

At least, that's the charitable explanation.

More likely, the commie asshats that took over in the 1960's made a huge grab for power, culminating in Cranky Franky, who is hopefully not too big on longevity.

314 Actually, I just remembered an Egyptian Coptic physician I used to know urged me to go to a Coptic service. He said they're in communion with Rome. I never did although I drive past their church fairly frequently and it looks lovely. I think I'll try it.

The physician (very nice man) went back to Cairo to visit his parents when there were a bunch of Islamic attacks on Coptic churches there a few years back. He's terribly worried about them. He said they are very old, not in good health and simply don't feel strong enough to uproot their lives and move across the globe at this point in their lives. But he said they are the last remaining generation of an ancient church.

the only file types that can be pesty are video formats. but you can still convert them, it's just a pain

ALSO any compressed files - that's a total pain, finding decompression software for MS files that works on the Mac. It's doable but not easy. decompress stuff before you move it over

My dad had that a few years back. He complained it didn't seem to do anything as well, but I think over time the pain lessened considerably. No idea if the procedure and pain reduction were related.

Portland has tons of Russian Baptists, as does Sacramento. A lot of them are Russian-speaking from the eastern Ukraine.

The story goes that there was a Baptist radio station broadcasting into the USSR, and the two pastors on the show were from Portland and Sacramento, so these were the two cities that Russian Baptists had heard of.

461 As a non-Catholic, I'll admit that JP-II drew my interest as to that heritage.

He possessed and projected a Majesty of Faith that had been lacking in his predecessors, and was sorely lacking in much of the Protestant world in his era.

Following him, Benedict appealed to my intellectual aspirations of faith, along with his evident discipline of (catholic) doctrine, much of which with which I still do not agree, but admit to the logic of that faith.

Then comes Frankie.

You don't have a Pope, there, my Catholic friends. He's many things, but he's not a Man of God.

I've seen your JPII and your Benedict. I can see the Christ in those men.

Being born back in '58, I've seen your earlier Popes, but they pale in comparison to JP-II and Benedict.

Frankie, though?

He oughta go fishing with Fredo. They'd get along swimmingly.

473 Guadalcanal Diary.

Fourth grade, about 1967, and the Bookmobile Librarian denied me the checkout of that book, because I stumbled in the reading of some of the words.

Told my Mom about that.

Next week, when the Bookmobile arrived at the school, my Mom stepped aboard that Bookmobile Bus.

Ten minutes later, it was established that I would never be denied a book, ANY book, from that Bus, ever again.

My Mom ROCKED. And sadly passed, way the hell too soon. 1978.

She was 54. I was 19.

She was also a Rosie the Riveter on B-24s at Consolidated, in San Diego, CA.

Though I did not inherit her bigotry against Catholics, I did though adopt a wee bit of Missouri-ism.

506 ..Having a good mom can make a huge difference in a boy's life.

Posted by: Insomniac at November 22, 2019 01:23 AM (NWiLs)



My true and saving grace.

What YOU saw, was my late Dad's and my Step Mom's house. Though small, they build a prosperity of a sort.

My MOM's place? Post-divorce, lost our (her)house in San Diego. Rental house and then apartment, thereafter.

An older brother already kicked out of the Army, and hurtling headlong into a life of crime.

And I enlisted into the USAF in my Junior year of H.S., trying to secure a future where I could establish my dying Mom as a Dependent, and help support her therewith.

USAF said FU to "dependent".

So I paid cash out of my meager 1976 E-1 paychecks to help support her. Carried this on through E-3 in '78, when she inevitably, passed.

My Mom *tried* to do right by me, but was far too sick, scared and dying in those last years, to have been much of a guide.

Books, literature and the worlds they presented, helped IMMENSELY. So did a San Diego Deputy Marshall, who stepped into my life at exactly the right time.

Taught me to camp, taught me to sail, taught me to shoot, taught me to be a motorcyclist, taught me to build, all at exactly the right time in my life.

Let me tell you this, Horde.

Y'all CLING to one another, and hold tight in the bonds of love.

You never know that when, or what YOU do, will be the ENTIRE DIFFERENCE to another, in the course of their life.

In the Pacific in WWII, it took he U.S. Navy over a year, to purge the peacetime "carrerist" USN Officers, and replace them with On The Warpath WARRIORS, at nearly every Command Billet upon the waves.

Whereupon, the WARRIORS wreaked havoc upon the Japanese fleets, be they merchant, warship or submarine.

Such is the same evolution from peacetime to war, regardless of era.

And it is always the soldier, sailor, airman and marine, who bleeds the most during this sad but investable process.

Their job though? Is to "embrace the suck" until the changes rise above the mediocracy.

Always does. Always takes too long in the doing.

Former Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh pleaded guilty Thursday afternoon to federal charges in the "Healthy Holly" book scandal, reported WJZ Baltimore.

Pugh pleaded guilty to four of the 11 charges, including wire fraud, conspiracy to defraud the US, and two counts of tax evasion. The disgraced mayor faces up to 35 years in federal prison, sentencing is expected in late February 2020.

Gallagher's Lt. has been trying to leave the military since the end of the trial, but Green stopped him from leaving on his own freewill. Obviously there are lots of SEAL issues and Green needs a scapegoat or three. Since Green's boss just got promoted in August, hopefully he will see the error in his support of Green and take care of it.

Went to the Tridentine Mass in town a few weeks ago (couldn't get my butt in gear for anything earlier) and had a mixed reaction.

The church is a large cathedral, and of coure he's way up at the front with his back to the congregation, and of course they decided not to mic him, so it was mumble, mumble, mumble the whole time.

OTOH hand, lots of folks there, and the two pews in front of me were filled with three generations of a family with a boatload of kids, the youngest of whom were directly in front of me. So 3- and 4-year-old boys squirming and climbing and crawling under, and slightly older sisters pulling them up and hugging and petting them, and so on and such like. Very entertaining and enjoyable, and certainly a blessing, but all things considered kind of hard to keep the old reverence quotient topped up.

Posted by: logprof at November 22, 2019 02:10 AM (818hy)

the Baltimore mayor wrote a "book" that was essentially nothing, but made companies buy many hundreds of copies the book and donate it, buying at retail.

So a pay-to-play if you wanted to do business in Baltimore. And to top it, she made over $300,000 and didn't declare the income.

Now, busted and going to jail for up to 35 years.

I remember well how she smeared her police dept instead of backing them up. It was disgusting. Glad she is moving to the crossbars motel.

645 I like the EO church. I'd probably like Eastern Rite Services in the Catholic Church. People resonate with different styles of worship. I think reverence has more to do with the attitude of the mind of the participant than what's going on. If you come into the church focused on God and God's Glory and the awesome presence of God in the sanctuary than you are more likely to be reverent. It's not about being entertained and the ways God speaks through the service..

In this one, limited instance, it's both. Why?

The profit margin is so high, and the product is so legal, that it helps offset the $$ cocaine losses when they get interdicted. (The cartels still have to pay the Columbians or Bolivians or whomever is making the original paste)

Similar to once the mafia got big enough to branch out into legal businesses. More graft legally, less jail risk. (See solid waste removal and unions)
