The US has a housing shortage problem. We also have a plastic waste problem. What if we could solve both these problems simultaneously with an unexpected two birds/one stone innovation? If you’ve ever longed to live in a small house made out of 100,000 recycled plastic water bottles, your lucky day is just around the corner. If, like most of us, living in a water-bottle house isn’t on your list of life goals, but this still sounds like an intriguing idea, bear with me. 3D printed houses can’t quite be called “commonplace” yet, but they’re growing in popularity and springing up everywhere from New York to Virginia, California to Texas and in between. If putting down layers of cement wasn’t innovative enough, a company called Azure is making good use of the material that’s both a boon to our consumer society and the bane of our (and the planet’s) existence: plastic. Los Angeles-based Azure Printed Homes was founded by entrepreneurs Ross Maguire and Gene Eidelman, who believe they can build homes 70 percent faster, at a cost 20 to 30 percent less expensive than traditional construction methods—and far more sustainably to boot.

Bustami's 62-year-old mother, who wasn't identified by Metro Police or the Clark County Coroner's Office, is reported to have suffered "multiple deep lacerations" during an incident at a home on June Flower Drive shortly after 2:30 a.m. on Wednesday, Metro Lt. Dave Valenta told the newspaper.

The things I learn while preparing an ONT. I thought I would share with you.
Stories From History That Are Almost Too Absurd To Believe, But Really Happened Hindsight is usually 20/20, but not everything in history can be easily explained. In fact, the human past is littered with unbelievable moments that actually happened, even though they sound improbable and unlikely. These absurd stories from history - like historical stories we hadn't heard before - demonstrate that truth really is stranger than fiction. An Ex-Nazi Cult Leader Faked The Assassination Of Santa Claus In Front Of A Group Of Children In 1961, Paul Schäfer, who participated in WWII as a Nazi, founded Colonia Dignidad in Chile. Technically a commune, Colonia Dignidad was in reality a 300-person Germanic cult led by Schäfer. Augusto Pinochet even used Colonia Dignidad as a secret prison during his rule. The commune was also the site of cruel acts, with many accusing Schäfer of sexually abusing children. One of the strangest moments that occurred there took place when he arranged for one of his followers to pretend to be Santa Claus so Schäfer could mock-execute him in front of some children. Schäfer wanted to terrorize the children so that they would be loyal and subservient to him. (Colonia Dignidad changed its name to Villa Baviera in 1991 and is now a tourist site with a hotel.)

Woman Busted In Domestic Fight Over Sex Toy
Police: Boyfried was battered after seeking adult item's return
NOVEMBER 1--A dispute over possession of a sex toy turned violent early Saturday and resulted in the arrest of a Florida Woman for battering her boyfriend, according to court records. Responding to a “domestic violence situation” at a home in Fort Pierce, cops interviewed the male victim who said that he and Chelsea White, 34, were “having a verbal argument over a handbag and a sex toy” he owned. “As the argument progressed, the victim asked White to return the sex toy to him because he owned it,” police reported. However, “White refused to give the sex toy back to the victim.”

There is going to be another full lunar eclipse the morning of Nov. 8th. This will be the first ever lunar eclipse on an election day.
I take that as a sign. Lunar eclipses are idiotically called "blood moons" by the hype machine, and November's full Moon is the Beaver Moon (these names come from old Injun lore).
So Election Day will begin with a Bloody Beaver Moon. That's a hell of a sign.

This time, those in the West will get to see the full eclipse show from start to end. Those of us on the East won't. The Moon will set before the eclipse is over.
And looking at the local forecast, looks like it may be cloudy and raining. It was cloudy here the last one, back in May, but I did get to see some of it.

It's Trump - he destroys people who get in the way of something he really wants. That's been a character flaw we've always known. It's probably part of why he struggled to bring in good people - a lot of friends of people he burnt bridges with were probably warned off...
That said, if it's Trump, I have his back. But I'd rather have some sanctimony if I could...

Twitter employees were selling verification for upwards of $15,000. For certain accounts, mine included, they would refuse to verify you through the standard application and then privately offer to verify you for $$ behind the scenes.

Yeah well, then DeSantis is just as idiotic as Trump, the dude hasn't won his contest yet, obviously he will, but the idea he's going to skip out of the Governor's job as soon as he wins is idiotic on his part.
If he truly has designs on 24, then he will have to immediately declare and start campaigning against Trump as soon as Trump announces.
IT WOULD BE F**KING DISASTER.

I truly hope it is a one off and not something Trump incorporates into his repertoire.
Because that would be bad, counter productive and unhelpful.
It speaks to a lack of discipline and a disregard for the good of the party / country. This is one of the reasons many people tend to dislike Trump.

1 small can tomato sauce, 2 tablespoons tomato paste, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1/2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons worceistershire sauce, 1 tablespoon gojuchang sauce, 1 tablespoon sweet chili sauce, t tsp each salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder.

Europe's had a very warm fall, but that will end at some point, and the dermo will start to hit the fan in Western Europe politically.
Meanwhile, it's mud season in Ukraine, and Russia is in the process of training the 300,000 people who were mobilized, who will be available when the ground freezes in December, and offensive operations become feasible again.

Yup, 1.5 Million LEGAL immigrants per year, pluse 2.5 million ILLEGALS?
That is more than 1% of the total US population per year... 0ver 30 years? that is 120 Million immigrants... or more than about 30% of our current population...
added to the immigrants already here? US gov says 15% of our population is foreign born, but even just the LEGAL immigration numbers give that many.

The Moscow Times had an interesting article - Putin is turning over more and more authority to the one group of Russian government officials that have done well during the war - the economic administrators who have kept the Russian economy in better shape than the Western European economies.
In particular, they are now in charge of military production and keeping the troops supplied, so I wouldn't bet on continued incompetence.
Putin's heart may be with the siloviki (the intelligence community), but he's noticed who's succeeded and who's failed in their jobs thus far.

>>Especially if they indict Trump.
Yeah, if they indict Trump then it's all over and DeSantis may be the candidate, but that would actually f**k Florida as he would then start campaigning for a new job 6 months after winning re-election.
Hopefully, none of this comes to pass and Trump wins and electoral landslide in '24 and brings a suitcase of pliers and blow torches with him.

Get ready for serious fun the next ? number of years. I heard late last week that if Trump declares for the 2024 race before Meritless Garland can indict him, Garland may appoint a Special Counsel to take-over the January 6th and DocumentGate criminal investigations of Trump.

Unfortunately, the Blood Beaver Moon will not be a supermoon. The eclipse in May was a Super Flower Blood Moon.
Seriously, this supermoon and blood moon thing is a bunch of nonsense. It originated with internet hype. The clickbait algorithms discovered that headlines like, "Tonight's SuperMoon is going to be the biggest and brightest you'll ever see!!!" got clicks. They've been doing it ever since.
Even some of the more serious astronomical and space sites have picked up on it.

Possibly having only one entree choice in the hot line at the DFAC might amount to a supply crisis for the US (kidding!), but we're talking russkis (and ukes) here. Both are hardy, both are used to less opulent material circumstances than any of us.
Pretty static right now, and for some time. Some General Mud involved, but more than that. Meanwhile it seems the Russians are dipping a bit into their Kursk 1943 script, with layered obstacles/minefields to shape the battlefield. Especially in the south, terrain and water features provide lots of "synergy" for the engineers.
And fundamental asymmetry of objectives remains.

Of course the "so what" of it all remains an unknown, with little basis for optimism of much happening. The GOP (nor any other entity nominally representing an "opposition") rarely even bothers to dispute, much less act against, the various idiotic mythologies, jihads, and poisons degrading the country. And I gather they have succeeded in keeping the election about "you can't vote for those guys!", i.e. they've committed to almost nothing of consequence.

The GOP might muster the sort of steely-eyed, responsible, courageous fiscal discipline they showed with the "infrastructure" bill (and the microchip bill, and the various "stimulus" insanities for C19), and act against a major driver of the top election topic, inflation.

The Romans also used dihydrogen monoxide to make their concrete. Due to namby-pamby modern hazardous chemical prohibitions, modern concrete is made using hydrogen hydroxide instead.

That's actually a bug in the programming of these "atomic clock" that read the time signal from Ft. Collins (WWVB). There are two DST bits in that signal. One bit indicates "DST status is changing today". That signal flips at 0:00 Zulu on the day of the change.
The other bit flips 24 hours later. Buggy implementations will switch the time immediately upon noticing that "heads up" bit flip.

At 5mA ea, that sounds about right. There's no reason not to use a simple voltage regulator. I mean, if one or more were to short, then the others (with a current regulator) would receive elevated current. So, coin toss. A simple adjustable voltage regulator would do it. Another consideration is *what* voltage is the supply going to be. Put a 200 mA fuse in series.

These strips are in a series-parallel arrangement, and it seems that circa 200 mA per strip is about the sweet spot. They barely illuminate at 15 volts. 20 volts pegs out the meter on the power supply. I have seen a couple of current regulator circuits that use IC voltage regulators as their active element.

If the logic is correct, you should see it change exactly at 2 AM, jumping back to 1 AM.
There are two DST bits, at positions 57 and 58. 00 is standard time in effect. On the day of the change to DST, it becomes 10. 24 hours later, it's 11. Then like today, it will go to 01, then back to 00.
Your watch will note that 01, and say, aha, I should switch back at 2AM local time. The buggy versions just jump immediately on noticing that first bit flip.

Well, sure...but if any of them were to open, then the current supplied by the regulator would remain the same. Call it 200mA/N. So, if N decreases (LED opens) then the current per remaining LED's will increase, assuming that ONLY current is regulated. OTOH, if one opens, but the voltage is constrained to 15V (only V regulator), nothing changes. Whichever, fuse.

That prompted me to look up the V-I characteristics of LEDs. Current will tend to runaway, but they do not have a negative differential resistance property, which is what really leads to a runaway.
Electric arcs and other things have such a characteristic. The more energy dumped in, the less the resistance becomes, and boom, it tends to become a short circuit. Fluorescent lights, arc lamps, and such all have this. That's why a ballast, to limit current is needed.
Some diodes, tunneling in particular, do possess that behavior as well.

That was an epic NLCS. I remember watching them all on our tiny 13" color tv in Dover, DE. Every game but one going into extras. Down by 3 late in Game 5, Trillo's triple to take the lead, only to watch them fail to hold it in the bottom of that same inning, Then in the 10th, the 2-out double from Maddox to score Unser for the game winning run. Then on to the Series to win it all.
Of course, that was back when I cared about baseball. Opening day was my personal holiday when I entered the professional world and was able to set my days off. But they decided to fill the stadiums with BLM bullshit and bend the knee, let alone the retarded rules changes, so now I couldn't even tell you who's who.

Speaking of watches, I bought me a brand new Casio DW-5600E a little over a year ago. Set that thing at the time to UTC exactly. I wore it tonight to set all the clocks at my folks when Miley and I went up there to feed them supper.
I set it back early. I was impressed. It was just about only 3 s off from UTC after a year. That's pretty damned good.
I also got a Casio G-Shock "Atomic watch". It's local time-keeping is nowhere near that accuracy. It will get off by a few seconds in a few weeks, if it doesn't sync. Problem is, the thing cannot sync inside the house. The signal level is strong, but there's too much interference, too much noise. May have to do with the Wifi and shit.

The laptop is probably off. Windows, default settings, is piss poor at NTP time syncing. You can change that, which I have. My main machine here keeps time sync'd to within 50 ms of UTC. I could get it down to 1 ms, but I'd have to bother the NIST and other Stratum 1 servers too much.

You can set things much better from the command line and through some registry settings. What you want to do to get really accurate is set up a pool of NTP servers you ping every so often.

How cool. A humorous curling joke.
Reminds me of the movie 'Men with Brooms'. Seriously, that's the title. It's a movie about friendship and . . . curling. Stars the Mountie from the tv series 'Due South' and has a (bearded) cameo from the late, great Leslie Nielsen.
Oddball movie to be sure, but I rather enjoyed it.

I use a third-party firewall which I must disable from time to time to update windows -- including setting the clock!
My Windows installation won't connect to the time servers unless I allow the Windows time service through the firewall, which I don't...
Once a week or so, I let Windows out of its cage to phone home... It probably phones home all the flippin' time anyway, truth be known!

I am looking at my NTP settings for Windows here. I messed with some shit, and I've forgotten exactly what they do. However, I'm using three time servers, time.nist.gov, time.goggle.com, and pool.ntp.org. I put custom settings so as not to bother time.nist.gov too much. That's sort of sanity check thing. My machine will poll them once ever 8092s.
It varies on the fly, actually. You set a maximum rate, but once your clock settles in, it will ping only as much as it thinks it needs to.
Right now, it is only pinging the NTP pool at once every 2048 s.

You can't change it from the GUI, has to be the command line. The command for doing this is "w32tm", running as administrator.
You can also change things via Group Policy, but that is disabled in the Home versions. Registry editor is the only way there.
When I was young, I'd remember everything new I learned. Not any more. Damned if I forgotten just about everything I did. Would have to look it all up again.

Time.windows.com is crap. It's only Stratum 3. Pool.ntp.org will give you a good Stratum 2 usually.
Look up the NTP configurations for Linux, it will go into a lot of detail on this, which you can take back to tweating W32tm on windows.

Here's the command to add multiple NTP servers to Windows. Open a command prompt as adminstrator and issue this:
w32tm /config /update /manualpeerlist:"time.nist.gov time.google.com pool.ntp.org" . Quotes much be used for multiple. Then type:
w32tm /resync. Then type w32tm /query /peers /verbose
You should see a bunch of info for all three NTP servers.

Is this from the pool.ntp.org server that it picked up? You see both nist.gov and time.goggle as Stratum 1.
Stratum 0 means the server didn't know or wouldn't tell what stratum it was. The pool.ntp.org thing just gives you a random server participating in the pool.

Issue this, w32tm /query /peers. That will give a short version. You should see three peers listed, plus the poll interval.

If you're interested, depending on which one, I'll give you some tweaks to get the clock accuracy better, and get you to within 50 ms of UTC always.

If you keep the firewall on, blocking the NTP traffic, it won't be able to sync properly.

I won't argue with you. No such thing as too paranoid, this day and time. But that said, I see no harm in opening up the NTP port. You're behind a router, right, so it shouldn't let any unsolicited traffic come in at that NTP port at random, only stuff initiated on the client side.

All the clocks in this house are now set and to within 1s of UTC.
The AC powered clocks that count cycles will maintain that accuracy over the long term. The grid is very good at long term time accuracy. In the short term, it will vary, but they keep the long term cycle counts in sync with UTC very well.

Whatever time a timepiece carried by the person authorized by law to pronounce the time of death says it is. Mom's actual time of death was fifteen minutes earlier than her death certificate says it was - I know because I noted it as it happened.

Where's THAT coming from? Do they even still sell those?
I remember when Bobby Kennedy was running for Senate way back in the 60s, of course he was accused of being a carpetbagger since he didn't live in NY.
The wags said that RFK thought that Tarrytown (a village about 20 miles north of NYC) was a cigarette.
Ah, the memories!
