Wednesday Overnight Open Thread - February 5, 2025 [TRex]
Good evening Horde. The time has come for mid-week shenanigans of the overnight variety.
This is the Wednesday night ONT.
"Whiskey in the Jar," a song about a notorious Irish highwayman Patrick Fleming who was hanged in 1650, has become one of Ireland's most beloved songs, a true rebel air that stirs the passions. Fleming was no hero. He murdered, robbed, and maimed rich and poor alike, including women and children before being hunted down. He made a legendary escape from his death cell by scrambling up a chimney but was eventually recaptured. In death, he acquired a heroic air and many poems were written about him. Historian Alan Lomax says songs of highwaymen attacking the agents of the crown were very popular with Irish and British peasants. The folk of 17th century Britain liked and admired their local highwaymen, and in Ireland (or Scotland) where the gentlemen of the roads robbed English landlords, they were regarded as national patriots. Such feelings inspired this rollicking ballad. The history of Irelands beloved "Whiskey in the Jar"The song first gained wide exposure when the Dubliners, an Irish folk band, performed it internationally as a signature song, and recorded it on three albums in the 1960s.
Ozzy Osbourne will reunite with all of the original members of Black Sabbath for the first time in 20 years, in a gig that will be his last and that's being billed as the "greatest" heavy metal show ever, promoters said Wednesday. The band, one of the most influential of all heavy metal bands, will headline "The Back to the Beginning" show on July 5 at Villa Park, home of the Aston Villa Football Club in Birmingham, England.
The concerns were prompted by media coverage of a report for the Scottish government by the independent Scottish Animal Welfare Commission, which published its recommendations on responsible domestic cat ownership last Monday. Among its proposals, which included encouraging vaccination and neutering, the report also suggested that consideration be given to "containing" cat ownership in certain rural areas that were also home to red-listed bird species. It is estimated that domestic cats kill 27 million birds in the UK each year.Wait a minute. A commission in Scotland produced a report on "responsible domestic cat ownership?" Yep. 56 pages worth. You will be relieved to know that the report currently does not "recommend making it compulsory to neuter all owned cats." But "[t]his option will be kept under review by SAWC, in order to take into account of future research into alternatives to surgical castration, such as chemical implants." Like every other good online conspiracy theory, this one looks more true than false.

The Social Security Administration has terminated its contract for the “Gender X initiative marker” and removed all references to gender ideology from public facing applications.
This saves > $1M and is in accordance with the President’s Executive Order:
Why would SSA be involved with anything involving Gender X anything? The only thing they should be doing is collecting money and disbursing checks to retirees who paid into the system and those with disabilities.

my appetite has collapsed and I've been getting only 4 to 6 hours sleep a night. it happened when I heard the news about Musk in the treasury. disabled people were among the first the Nazis came after. wondering if my SSDI will come through
I'm kind of the opposite. I want to sleep ALL THE TIME. I am napping every day, sleeping 8-10 hours a night just to get away from all this.
Anyone not worried hasn't paid attention for over FORTY FIVE YEARS! When all the states legalized marijuanna, at the time, I wondered, what do THEY know about what lie's ahead?
As the guy in the movie said, "I ain't got time to bleed". I have to believe the groundswell of protests I am seeing, and support from citizens of other nations even, and all the lawsuits that will number in the hundreds, will mean our side will win eventually.

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons
Anything they want, hide it or mislabel it. Anything they plug in, unplug it. Remove light bulbs. Move cubicles around so they hide some of the doors and when they leave the room move them again so they hide different doors. Play really loud music. Think like a cat and sabo tabby yourself a mess"

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons
Anything they want, hide it or mislabel it. Anything they plug in, unplug it. Remove light bulbs. Move cubicles around so they hide some of the doors and when they leave the room move them again so they hide different doors. Play really loud music. Think like a cat and sabo tabby yourself a mess"

It was interesting to see that shot of the theater's seating. We were right there. Both shows were amazing.
For the Saturday night, we ended up in the basement — tubes (the theme of the show) had been strung around, from the basement to the lobby and everywhere, and before the show started, folks were talking to each other through them.
The Sunday matinee included many kids, and the manic nature of the show (throwing rolls of toilet paper unrolling over the crowd, among other audience involvement) had the kids going wild, running in the aisles. So much fun.
Gee, those guys got old. (He wrote with creaky fingers.)

Have the helicopter hover so the guys in back with automatic weapons can shoot the sh!t out of the good guy's car coming or going on a straght road, or taking a hairpin turn? Or hover to get an easy shot at the good guy with your helicopter's machine gun or missiles?
Nope. Have the helicopter weave like a druken sailor heading to the pier, in constant motion behind the good guy's car. To fool the audience into thinking, "Hey the good guy won't get hit! It's a tough shot, firing at car on a winding road from a weaving helo!"

After a long time of listening to Irish music, I came to a conclusion. The Irish employed their music as a part of their struggle to escape English control. The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem, Black 47, the Wolfe Tones, and Irish Storm are only a few of these musicians singing songs to encourage total freedom.

In some cases, such as Iraq, I can see the necessity of the program. Sort of a "you break it, you bought it" sort of deal.
There are, of course, catastrophic events where the US is in a position to assist. And, we do on an individual basis. If the US Govt. is going to pursue a humanitarian gift, then is should be done as an individual vote in Congress....NOT a hand out decided by non-elected functionaries with who allow politics to shape their "altruism." Congress is lazy and unwilling to do the work in such cases, and pawn it off on non-supervised career politicians. USAID should be so small, and structured that it can be handled on a legislative basis that requires a vote to enact...not a separate agency to act as a clearing house.
Needed to be said. And now back to your regularly scheduled programming.

The best factory tours I went on were beer breweries. You get to drink the beer. Or you used to. Right after high school graduation I went to a tiny brewery in Frankenmuth, Michigan with some friends. They gave us beer. Another time we went to the Stroh's factory by Detroit. You didn't even have to go on the boring factory tour. You just watched some beer commercials and drank free beer and ate sandwiches. I'm not even sure food and beverage companies are allowed to do that anymore.

Cub Scout, Boy Scout. Been there, done that. Never liked it, even then. But some would just toast/burn marshmallows for hours. I was done after one, maybe two. I just don't like the texture.

225 TRex is a sucker for videos showing how things are made. This one is from Porsche, showing assembly of two different models
The best factory tours I went on were beer breweries. You get to drink the beer. Or you used to.
----------
Sometime in the last decade I ordered a Mercedes Benz through their European Delivery program. In addition to getting my car custom-ordered, I got a tour of the Mercedes assembly plant in Sindelfingen.
Having never seen an auto assembly plant, it was awesome. I got to see E-class cars assembled from literal rolls of steel to finished cars rolling off the line. Throw in a guided tour through the MB museum and a free lunch in the MB restaurant, and it was a picture-perfect example of marketing excellence.

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons
Anything they want, hide it or mislabel it. Anything they plug in, unplug it. Remove light bulbs. Move cubicles around so they hide some of the doors and when they leave the room move them again so they hide different doors. Play really loud music. Think like a cat and sabo tabby yourself a mess"

Problem was he was wearing a large metal belt buckle and was just scratching the hell out of the paint.

Little boy who was injured because of got hit the crashed plane in Philly woke up today. The kid was in a car with his dad and siblings getting donuts when suddenly the plane comes down like a bomb.
His dad yells get down and he covers his sister but he gets hit with a piece of metal in the head.
They didn't know if he'd make it but he's awake now and he asked if he saved his sister (yes).
Also wanted to know if he'd missed the superbowl.

USAID used taxpayer money to send Hollywood celebrities to Ukraine to promote Zelensky. Angelina Jolie got $20M, Sean Penn $5M, Orlando Bloom $8M, and more. Meanwhile, Americans are struggling.

It's not about the cheap, imported crap merchandise. Not anymore.
They now offer credit cards. And do "check cashing" (probably mostly for ill iggles, what don't have bank accounts) tied to "reloadable debit cards". Interest charges! Fees!
Also... they try to screw their vendors with various huge penalty clau$e$ in the contracts. Probably what drove off most of the domestic products. IMO.

Another thing about these retail outlets. You have a lot of people saying they will never shop at Costco again. The reality is Costco makes very little on the items they sell. It is not a secret that over 70% of their profits come from memberships. If you ever want to hurt Costco, just don’t renew your membership but not shopping there isn’t going to hurt them as long as your membership is paid up.
My personal advice and it doesn’t really matter because it’s just one guy, but I don’t think a Costco boycott is going to work for many reasons. No one should shop there if they truly don’t want to of course that’s the case. But don’t get your hopes up about a large swath of the country abandoning Costco, and them changing course. It could happen for sure, but I don’t see it.

He steals from the rich, he gives to the poor,
Mr Moore, Mr Moore, Mr Moore.
He initially fell into the trap of taking only lupins from the rich and wealthy, items for which the poor had no use. He then switched to stealing from the rich, to the point that the poor were now rich themselves. His ethics suggested some articles should be returned to the wealthy. This altered his theme song to "He steals from the poor and he gives to the rich, silly bitch." By the end, Dennis is ruing the near impossible task of redistribution of wealth.
Also, the English were very pissed off about the Anglo-French Concorde program for reasons I still am not able to decipher.

Congrats on receiving a half years pay with no effort. You have always been a bit of an oxymoron. A moron in good standing and a federal employee. As a long term private employee that felt the sting of a pink slip, I suggest counting blessings. The real alternative currently seems to be the trebuchet. The corps will continue but maybe leaner, meaner hopefully more effective. I wish many happy years of blissful selfish retirement for you and yours.

I know several Federal employees who, like our own tcn in AK, are good people and excellent employees.
My Aunt Betty is taking the buyout because most in her office are, and she doesn't want to be left doing the work of 6 people. She is a wonderful person; at one point, I wondered if she wasn't one of the whistle blowers a few years back. She is definitely wondering what it will look like once the dust settles, and doesn't want to be the only one left trying to put Humpy Dumpty back together again.
She supports the mission, but wishes they were using a scalpel instead of a chainsaw. She does acknowledge that speed is crucial in an operation like this, keeping the enemy on their toes and not giving them time to counterattack. ( She thinks there's going to be issues with judges slapping things down again)
The next 4 years are gonna be a helluva show.

I suspect that, if they could speak honestly, the two or three (or one) good employees in the office would acknowledge that they're already doing 80%+ of the work of the other 6. And, unless it's something where a certain level of staffing/manpower is actually needed (24 hour infrastructure*, for example), get rid of half the staff and hopefully have a sincere discussion about "Would you rather be paid more and do their work that you're already doing, or be paid the same and continue watching the other employees be paid the same, too, while you do their work so they can coordinate and run their side gigs on federal time?"
* and with automation even that is often a single person job on the off shifts
