The Quotes of The Day


Quote I

"I'd like to see him put in jail for the rest of his life," Travis Mitchell,brother of criminal


Quote II

“A civil war in this country, I’m sorry to say, becomes a race war. That’s the sad truth about this country,” the host continued, adding “And if they put him in jail, I mean, the first thing his supporters are going to say is, ‘Oh, that’s what it is.’ A Black district attorney. You know, all these people who are the district attorneys, they’re black. The judge was not White. This is what it is. Bill Maher

Project much Bill? The problem with you and your ilk, you look at everything in shades of melanin.

The inner city culture on full display with this story. There are at least 2 factors driving this, LBJ's damaging social policies and Roe vs. Wade. Babies are disposable. Courtroom Shocked as Mother of Murdered Baby Defends Man Who Killed Her Son

Few things can be worse for a mother than losing a child, but one mother in Ohio shocked everyone by defending the person who was convicted of brutally taking her child from her.

The comments that shocked the court came after Traveon Hughes Sr., 20, was convicted Friday of murder, involuntary manslaughter, and child endangerment in connection with the June 25, 2022, death of his 13-week-old son, according to Cleveland.com, the website of the Cleveland Plain Dealer.

The family had moved to Cleveland from Chicago and two days before the boy’s death.

Speaking of inner city values......Caitlin Clark Is Going To Be Seriously Injured If Racial Hostility Continues

At this rate, Caitlin Clark is going to be seriously injured on the basketball court.

For months, the media has told us that Clark is the beneficiary of white and straight privilege. Sunny Hostin of "The View" also recently attributed Clark's popularity to "tall and pretty" privilege.

Notable figures and outlets who've stoked the "privilege" flame include, but are not limited to, Jemele Hill, the other mean girls on "The View," the New York Times, USA Today, Sheryl Swoopes, and Becky Hammon.

"We would all be very naive if we didn’t say race and her sexuality played a role in [Clark's] popularity," Hill bitterly recently told the LA Times.

Already, society preaches to black Americans that white people are their enemies and their oppressors. According to a recent Gallup poll, most black people believe that.

If I really wanted to see a group of homely lesbians I would travel to a gay bar.

We are being governed (And I use that word loosely) by an Utopian clueless group of people. Don't believe me? Check out this headline. "Department of Labor panned for posting advice for how 'menstruators' can 'thrive at work'"

The Department of Labor has been slammed after posting advice on how 'menstruators' can 'thrive at work'.

The government agency has posted on their social media pages to promote Menstrual Hygiene Day.

As part of the post, the department referred to a blog post of theirs on '5 easy actions employers can take to help menstruators thrive at work'.

As the Fabulous would say "Oh FFS"

The DOJ, what can't they do? Well something really fvcking simple such as: DOJ cites AI deepfakes as reason to withhold Hur interview audio

The Department of Justice is withholding the audio from President Joe Biden‘s interview with former special counsel Robert Hur due to fears that it will be altered by artificial intelligence, according to a court filing.

CNN, the Heritage Foundation, and Judicial Watch, among others, have all been denied Freedom of Information Act requests for the audio and have subsequently filed suit against the Justice Department. In response, it issued a court filing Friday night to explain why it won’t release the audio from Hur’s interview with Biden.


I wonder where the DOJ is planting an uprising blaming us MAGA folks? A funny thing about the the Bullshit verdict of Donald Trump. There were no mostly peaceful protests of us Bitter Clingers and Deplorables.

Good news for those "Mostly peaceful protesters"

60 Let’s talk about our 19 year old bride a minute. If ever there was an example that Snapchat is a terrible thing, here it is. These girls put a filter on their pictures and love that look. But it doesn’t look like them, really. It’s more them adjacent. They want to look like fake them. So much so, they go to a quasi third world country for surgery, because that same surgery in the US or UK is expensive. For a reason. And she still doesn’t look like her filtered pictures!

We can talk about the dumb makeup and iron on eyebrows, but whatever. Crazy make up has been around for eons. In summary, this is a cute girl who should know she is cute just as she is. Or was. Or could be if she washed her face.

She's a rookie WNBA player who is white and so far as anyone knows heterosexual. Her jersey has been selling pretty well, possibly more than other established players.

72 I wonder where the DOJ is planting an uprising blaming us MAGA folks? A funny thing about the the Bullshit verdict of Donald Trump. There were no mostly peaceful protests of us Bitter Clingers and Deplorables.

Adam Schiff explained this on a talk show this morning.

Trump will be sentenced to prison on July 11th, and the Democrats are hoping that this triggers off "J6" riots (aided and abetted by the FBI, of course), which they can use to completely crack down on the opposition party.

Piece of advice - anyone calling for violence online after Trump is sentenced on 7/11 can safely be assumed to be a Fed.

I saw a few reports on the incident and went to the ESPN site to watch a video. You can clearly see her calling Clark a bitch right before a very fragrant foul. That led to a video that showed it's been happening to Clark since the start of the season.

Since Obama and then the BLM bullshit black on white racism has become common to the point it seems to be something we are supposed to accept and not talk about.

In Portland, lesbians use closed Facebook groups and other invitation-only social media to advertise parties in warehouses and such, so that the men wearing dresses don't find out about the parties.

The greasy tattooed bandit initiated the encounter with his Beguiling Tales of Lost Wallets incantation, but he was cut off with a quickly employed Words Of Rebuke spell, though this resulted in a hostile stance, and a hand was wisely placed on a Magnum of Three Hundred And Fifty-Seven Reasons To Fuck Off... the bandit fortunately beat a hasty retreat and quickly left with his accomplice in his beat up old silver steed. Rumor has it, this vulture works the rest stops along 70 in that area of Indiana, consuming large amounts of Skooma and preying on travelers.

163 >>The Democrats are hoping for and expecting riots when Trump is imprisoned.

At the beginning of this season of lawfare this case was widely considered the weakest of all the cases against Trump because it's idiotic. It's so obviously partisan bullshit that Biden did not get the huge bump they were hoping for and instead Trump has raised over $200 million since the verdict and he's enjoying a huge amount of public support. They've made Donald Trump into a martyr. And the other cases are fizzling out.

And instead of being bombastic he's being very calm and said in an interview today that his lawyers shouldn't plead that he not be jailed and just let things go forward. None of this has worked out the way they have planned.

I have no idea how this is going to play out but I don't think leftists are very happy with how this is unfolding right now.

These, to document, indict and prosecute the greatest number of Guilty Democrats as possible, in the shortest amount of time, post-inauguration, as possible.

Mostly, for all, Denial of Civil Rights Under Color of Law, Title 18 USC. Section, I'd have to look up, again.

ALL of the key players need to face Life, with no possibility of parole. A few of them need to Meet the Needle, as that Title 18 charge does allow for penalties, up to and including death.

The kind of Treason they've committed, is deserving of exactly that severity.

But, Paxton, or whoever Trump has in mind for the job, needs to be getting busy, behind the scenes, NOW. Draft those Briefs, Draft those Subpoenas, Draft those Filings... have everything ready, save for minor edits, as near to Day One as can be managed.

Fast track 'em all through Judges who are NOT (d) operatives, too. A few of THOSE judges need to face those same charges, too.

In other words, a good shooter will be aided by a coach's rules to pass to the designated player for shots every possible opportunity, along with blocking-out defenders from the designated player as much as possible.

You know where 16 2/3 records did get used? Muzak. They used changers with lo-fi 16 2/3 RPM records on a changer than would play many hours of music before exhausting all the discs. Then some store employee would flip the discs over, and the changer would play the other side for hours and hours. I had a stack of those records once. They were, uniformly, terrible.

The Combat Controller AFSC is very locked in to working with Green Beret insertion teams, and trains with them on an ongoing basis.

You'll notice also, that you hardly ever, damn near NEVER read about nor see TV as concerns the U.S. Army's Delta Force? 'Cause Delta wants it that way. So do Green Berets. And, so do USAF Combat Controllers.

They shun the spotlight much the opposite as to how (too many) U.S. Navy Seals have sought, and reveled in it.

Go into Half-Price books, and browse the Military Books section. Likely, three dozen books on, about or BY SEALS. And you're lucky to find one, maybe two, about DELTA. Those, most likely, by .mil "experts", two or three specialty fields, removed.

We live in a world that turned upside down so quickly most didn't see it coming at all. The left suffers from a virulent strain of mental illness. They need to be stopped before it gets out of hand.

This is a bit different. Robinson was the first black player in the league in a time where that just didn't happen. Clark isn't close to being the first white player and not even the first really good white player. Look at Sue Bird for just one example.

This is all ginned up race hate that started with Obama. Race relations in this country were doing great before he came along and started all of this intentionally.

268 AC-DC's Thunderstruck has been on my radar over the last week which has caused me to chase down a few dozen versions, some pretty unexpected. Provided the musicianship is up to snuff the composition stands on its own merits; it seems odd to say this but it is a transcendent piece that is perfect.

By far my favorite version is AC-DC live in 1991. The band crushes it. There are later versions that are essentially the same but they lack that extra something.

Another favorite is a a woman playing a solo version on a what I think is a traditional Chinese instrument. In her own way she crushes it too.

336 Those big consoles usually sounded pretty good, even without the top end components.

Reason being, intelligent and knowledgeable electronic and audio engineers worked together to meld a balance of adequate electronic performance, a favorable acoustic cabinet to best project the sound from the few-steps-above-cheap speakers which then served those markets.

And, the multi-hundred pound cabinets were, of themselves, pretty damn good resonance proof audio environments, relying on their own structure for sound wave reflection and projection, and not to some random wall, sliding glass doors or set of drapes behind the array.

Immediately following the mid-century cabinets and internals, the short-lived "gold-faced" stereo era led directly to the 60's, 70s', early '80s Silver Face, mid-Fi and Hi-Fi eras. Stereo at it's best, seldom equaled, especially now.

Similar, but not the same, to the first pic. Does not have the hook (quillon?) on the blade guard. just a blunt triangular extension opposite the loop for the rifle muzzle. Markings on blade, from top down: a Crown, G R, 1907, 9----6, Wilkinson. There are crowns, "T5", and a "D" within a square on each scale of the wooden handle. The blade guard is stamped on the right edge: "5 D ^ D", where ^ is an upward-pointing arrow. Reverse side of the blade has what I assume are acceptance stamps. The sheath is leather, and has a round, not lozenge-shaped button.

Piltdown was much later, around 1912, and was also an intentional fraud, though it was never found out if it was on purpose or a joke, since most of the people blamed for it died in France in the war.

This fits with my #336, upthread.

Every era has it's "crossover" points. Tube era leading to Solid State. Solid State leading to a very few Integrated Circuits in the layout and design. I.C. leading to full digital receivers, the CD revolution, and more.

There is a LOT of the "former" eras, that needs revival, and return to the present day.

Large, Heavy, REAL transformers, for one. You want audio, you need power. Wee, tiny transformers with an array of amp-switching circuits ahead of them, might save on electrons here or there. But DO NOT match the sound quality of the dinosaur amps.

1st band I was ever in was an AC/DC/judas priest tribute band. This was back right before bon scott went carbon neutral. Malcolm was a bad ass, but really not that hard to play. You only need to know 1 trick, when you hit that chord you need to make all the strings go off at once. Usually you don't hear individual strings, the chord just appears in it's entirety. Do that and you got it made, you'll nail the sound. Scott Ian is doing exactly that if you watch, fast strum attack and get the chord to just explode at once.

My 1979 Sansui G-5700 says Hi !

85 watts per channel, right. An a modern, 7.1 Onkyo or such says 120 WPC?

Let's hook 'em both up to identical sets of 8 ohm speakers. Advent, Infinity, JBL, doesn't matter, just choose a quality pair.

Rock 'em if you go 'em.

I'll have my Sansui turned up to maybe "2". The other guy will have to turn that Onkyo up to "6" to keep up. Maybe "7". And then his finals will overheat, and the fuse will blow.

"Headroom", requires a BIG transformer. Always has, always will.

JVC mastered this with their "Super A" amp switching technology. But were smart enough to keep Big ENOUGH transformers in the plan, to survive the demands of High Power Delivery. Much respect for '70s/'80s JVC pro-sumer gear.

Indeed. Once the tunnels are full of water, which is incompressible, any explosions in the tunnel will act with much greater force on the ground surrounding the tunnel, increasing the chance of a breakthrough to an adjacent tunnel.

427 JVC Super A *Receivers*. Most common failure node was in the pre-amp filtering circuits, which took disparate signal characteristics from various inputs, such as Phono, CD, and Tape, and processed them to give the Amp (and Transformers), a fairly uniform envelope of frequency and amplitude, without resulting in wild spinnings of the Volume, Bass or Treble knobs on the front of the receiver.

JVC made very few SEPARATE Pre-Am & Pure Amp components. And those are HIGHLY sought after items.

Because they had very close to zero electronic or audio flaws, for the mid to lower-high range consumer.

The true Audiophile, will always find a flaw. They LIVE for finding, the flaws.

Yeah, I remember those cables. Nowadays all the cabling/cords are bare minimum. I thought I'd repair a phone charger cable....one strand of tiny wire. Not worth the effort. Had mostly JVC equipment back in the day. Didn't understand the "why" it performed so well - that you explained upthread.

I remember reading a good article on this a long time ago. It summed it up pretty nicely, and it goes something like this:

Everything distorts. You play some recorded source back, or amplify something live, whatever. You're gonna get some distortion. But, different equipment distorts differently.

It went out about vacuum tube vs modern solid state amplifiers. They distort differently.

So, which sounds better amounts to which distortion you like better. :-)

There was a bit about how some people actually prefer some distortion over the real thing. Something sounds better to them when it has a certain distortion.

THE most valuable tool in the audio cabinet. A "Square Wave" multi-track LP for 33-1/3. Will give that Square Wave at nine different frequencies, one per track.

You KNOW what the stylus and system should be tracking.

Your Oscilloscope, when plugged in after the pre amp, or amp, or via mic from the speakers, will SHOW YOU what's NO LONGER a SQUARE WAVE as it travels through the system. Thsoe are your technical flaws.

HOW it SOUNDS to you? Those are your PREFERENCES.

Choose as you wish.

Just don't choose Craig, or Soundesign. ALWAYS the wrong choice!

You might've been missing on, on a lot.

The Audio Freaks aren't so much 'wrong' as they're INSANE!

You want "accuracy" in your system. Staging, separation, voice, imaging, production/reproduction.

The violinist playing into the mic, needs to be as close to the EXACT SAME violinist you hear through your speakers. Same for vocalists, etc.

But, yeah. LOUD is thing, too. See above. My Sansui at "2", vs. the modern Onkyo at "6" or "7".

And it'll BLOW YOUR WINDOWS OUT by time you turn it to "5". IF, that is, the speakers can hold out that long!

447 My home system is hardly "audiophile." It consists of a S760H Denon AV thang, a couple of 12 year old Polk RTiA3 book shelf speakers, a matching center channel, and a PSW108 subwoofer. I have it tweaked for my living room and when playing FLAC files ride cymbals sound like ride cymbals and I can even tell when the guitarist has it cord plugged in backwards. It isn't my Sansui thang but then again that would probably kill me these days.

If you search on "people like distortion" that can get you started on this.

Anyway, in that article I mentioned, the author was a audio engineer. Imagine his task. You want to faithfully reproduce "live sound" as best you can. You set up the system to do that as best you can. As little distortion to get a sound field as best to the real thing as you can.

Define that as follows. Imagine someone playing a real guitar in your living room. Now, you want to set up your audio equipment so that it sounds just like that real guitar being played in your living room.

This guy does that with expensive equipment, as best he can. Objectively, per his instruments, he's got in the best he can do.

The customer then hears it, and yells, "That sounds awful!". So, he learns he has to distort things to the customer's preference. And different people have different preferences.

You've NOT been missing out on a lot.

What you've done, is to have bought Good Enough audio gear at the lower/mid range of the Pro-Sumer market, and have paid attention to the TUNING capabilities it gave you, and tweaked it to fit the Sound Stage of YOUR environment.

Which is far more than the 98% of "plug and play" audio IDIOTS do, and then complain about muddy and indistinct sound.

May their eabuds ROT in their auditory canals.

My current boxes do all that remarkably well. My experience says having a well recorded and mastered recording, be that a direct to disk or high quality FLAC is far more important than gear for us mortals. If your hobby is gear, well, yeah, that stuff can be pretty great.

454 My all time favorite direct to disk recording was of the the 1812 Overture with cannons. The grooves, were the cannons were popping off were, being technical now, a country mile wide.

A great test for what your gear can do and how a recording affects all that is to get your mitts on a high quality recording and a Spotify version of a popping jazz track, combo or big band. Then pay very close to the ride cymbal and the attack/decay on the upright bass. Buddy Rich comes to mind here as a useful place to begin. Yeah, it is a live altering moment that cannot be undone.

463 Masters.

You will NOT FIND a higher quality collection of pressings that are direct FROM the digitally REMASTERED Original Studio Recordings, than from:

Mobile Fidelty Sound Labs.

Their LPs near to the end of the analog era, were the Best of the Best. Take THAT, to the bank.

And their 24 karat gold CD production? Not only degradation proof, but the 8x greater "pit burn" rate ensured that as close to ALL of the information from the Analog Tapes made it TO the Digital Master for the CD repros.

Give a listen to their Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon or Elton John's Yellow Brick Road, on the FINEST systems you can find and borrow "a listen".

You only thought you had "heard" those albums, before. Until then.

And then, you'll hear them anew. And MARVEL.

I had more than two of those. There is a level beyond that where the band played live and brass master was cut while playing. Those would be the direct to disc recordings. I had more than three of those and they were absolutely mind blowing, especially after growing up listening to AM radio. The best late analog period recordings have never been exceeded in my opinion.

MSFL had a robust catalog of Direct to Disc REMASTERED albums in their library. Imagine, if you will. D2D, with any and all analog FLAWS removed, but leaving every BIT and BYTE or every sub-microscopic wiggle of the stylus, INTACT.

MIND BLOWING audio. Do some (non google) net research on MFSL. And you'll then go on a quest to buy of 'em, what you can find.

475 As many of you probably know here, I spend my Saturday mornings up on a bridge here in the bluest of blue states. I stand behind a chain link fence filled with Donald Trump signs and flags, and American flags. There are at least two accidents every single Saturday, it is always caused by leftist drivers with TDS who abandon all pretext of driving to remove both hands from the wheel and flip us the double bird while ignoring brake lights in front of them. Last Saturday I arrived, we usually number about 20, we had 72 people there on Saturday, someone had deposited a large amount of animal or human feces and urine on both sides of our bridge.

It smelled horrible and some very good people on our side removed it and disinfected the area. Our opposition is a bunch of mentally ill evil fucks. Don't let anybody tell you different.

One of tthe organizers suggested that we relocate and I joined several others in saying that we will defend this bridge. It is us or them.
