Overnight Open Thread (25 Apr 2015)

So Lena Dunham is still claiming to be a rape victim. I seem to recall the rape from her book 'collapsed under scrutiny'. I would think Variety could find a real rape survivor to honor no?

Transparent Armor

Hmmm. Transparent armor from Naval Research Labs.

Star Wars: Rogue One

So this news came out last weekend too. New details on Star Wars: Rogue One spinoff movie.

Finally confirming the rumors, director Gareth Edwards announced that this will indeed be about the mission to steal the Death Star plans - and it's set in a universe where there are believed to be no Jedi left. "God's not coming to save you."

Realism is important - he wants this to feel like a real war movie set in the Star Wars universe.To that end, he has the cinematographer of Zero Dark Thirty and special effects guys from Black Hawk Down and Saving Private Ryan. He said that while Star Wars is quite black-and-white in terms of good and evil, Rogue One will show the gray area that becomes polarized. Good guys are bad, bad guys are good - it's like the reality of war.

Which is how all this started.

It's still a town of steel workers and linemen. A few stores might get smashed, but you're not gonna see any widespread or long lasting disorder. And what damage does happen, will be in places where respectable citizens don't go.

The problem was Abrams refused to tell his own story with the second film. The first film was fine with the fan service. The story was decent at least. The second film was overly complicated, made Kirk look childish, and seemed like a collection of scenes based on other Star Trek stories.

If he wanted to do a Khan story, I would have (secretly mind you) made Kahn actually the son of Kahn. Also would have tossed the whole evil Starfleet Admiral plot. Then would have had son of Kahn run amok in a smaller, more intimate type plot. Thereby, Kahn could show up in a later movie for revenge.

Best served from a deep freeze, to help numb the taste buds.

months of physical therapy, and he will be all better.

The left controls the productive class by offering a decent life in return for submission to their whims. This is why, so far, we members of the productive class haven't done anything collectively - the price would be too high.

We'll actually know that this calculus is no longer operative when you see member of the productive class going Galt. But the left is aware of this and has so far striven very hard to maintain a balance of terror and hope.

It is interesting then to ask if perhaps the left's recent decent into the politics of terror is motivated by the obvious failure of Obamanomics?

252 The second film was overly complicated, made Kirk look childish, and seemed like a collection of scenes based on other Star Trek stories.

Posted by: Not Loved Time


Um, Kirk was 'childish.' He was promoted to Cpt far faster than any other XO in the story. He was the ultimate in inexperienced officers.


If he wanted to do a Khan story, I would have (secretly mind you) made Kahn actually the son of Kahn. Also would have tossed the whole evil Starfleet Admiral plot. Then would have had son of Kahn run amok in a smaller, more intimate type plot. Thereby, Kahn could show up in a later movie for revenge.


No point in using a relative of a character when the whole thing is a reboot.

I didn't have that much of a problem with Teh Evil Admiral;

1 ) It's Robocop!

2 ) Meh, there are shitty admirals/generals/commandants in the best organizations.

The Mexican director of the film "Birdman" said that super hero films were "cultural genocide".

The press asked RDJ about it, clearly hoping to provoke him since he was doing pressers for the Avengers

RDJ said he respected the heck out of the director and that "for a man whose native tongue is Spanish to be able to put together a phrase like cultural genocide just shows how bright he is."

snarky, sure. But the other guy started it. And the press was hoping for a reaction

so now they are saying he is racist. Because Mexican is a race. or spanish. or something

It's a good thing the White House Correspondents' Dinner wasn't around in the 19th century. Take Andrew Jackson for instance.

312 I'm wondering: if the principle of innocent until proven guilty no longer applies when the charge is rape, why, exactly, should it apply to a charge of murder?

So, I accuse someone of murdering me. Somebody points out I'm not dead. So I respond by saying telling the truth about my being still alive is insufficiently sensitive to the nastiness of murder.

Which makes me want to shout "Bring out your dead."
"But I'm not dead."

RDJ has been in the cross hairs of the SJWs for a while as he is one of the few very visible people in Hollywood who is willing to stand by Mel Gibson after Gibson stood by him when RDJ ran into his own public problems.

Being suspected of not being a moonbat is just the latest reason to go after him.

Can't imagine he cares- he is doing pretty well in box office returns and Hollywood has to offset all the Matt Damon and other leftest box office flops somewhere.

BTW, Kirkland is the Costco-specific "generic" name. Generally, the Kirkland branded stuff is pretty damned good. That said, their American vodka ($12/1.75l) is truly Val-U-Rite grade. Not sure if that's good or bad...

I've actually got a bottle of Svedka in the bar right now. They're both fine once mixed with club and a lime.

And that explains why I've never heard of Kirkland, nearest Costco is in Louisville, and I'm not driving 2 hours for a bottle of vodka. Bourbon or scotch? Sure. But not cheap vodka.

422 Once you have a pitcher, the filter is about 10-12 bucks. A high end bottle of vodka can run you 200 bucks although 50 or so is more likely for a good bottle. Buy a cheap bottle and run it through the filter 5-6 times and apparently its indistinguishable from the finest stuff.

I say make it very fucking obvious. Staying home or voting for el-Slimeroad will make the RepublicRATs think they didn't turn far enough to the left when RoJo loses. Voting for somebody other than el-Slimeroad or RoJo (so long as that person is reasonably conservative) will send the message that RoJo's left turns cost him.

Whether the RepublicRATs internalize that is an open question, but either they willl do so or they will become extinct. Either is acceptable.

I have a 72" rough-cut mower, also sometimes called a brush hog, that mounts behind my tractor on the 3-point hitch, and is driven by the PTO. "Rough-cut" is a good descriptor. The Dixon mower does a more thorough job. My yard is basically cow pasture, and contains a lot of grass described as "prairie wool" which is very tough, and difficult to cut. I tried a sickle bar mower on it, and it just jammed it right up. A pass with the rough-cut mower, followed by a couple of passes with the Dixon make it look pretty good, if I really want it nice.

And no, no bagging of clippings.

Are you using a mulch plug, or is the discharge open.

If it is open, I have found that considerable grass will still gather in the discharge deflector. I solved it by just tying up the deflector with a bungee cord. NEVER, EVER get off on that side of the mower.

472 I live on a postage stamp so I usually use an old fashioned push reel mower--not for green reasons but because it is simpler.

Posted by: Northernlurker at April 26, 2015 12:10 AM (nlHrF)


I have the Cadillac of push mowers in my shed: a Clemson E16 Junior. It weighs very little, and achieves the necessary rigidity to keep the reel and bed knife aligned by having side plates made of die-cast magnesium, and a front frame tube a full 1 1/2" in diameter. There is nothing approaching it made today. Made in the USA in the '50's.

1. Take two passes, first with the cut set high, second set to your desired final height.

2. On a walk-behind rotary, set the front wheels a notch lower, so the deck of the machine is a bit high in the front. That way, the front of the blade cuts the grass to say, two inches, and the rear of the blade reduces that to an inch and a half. Result: shorter clippings that are less likely to clog.

Posted by: Robinson at April 26, 2015 12:27 AM (5gToQ)

What do you trail it behind? Is it self-powered? There is a type of mower called a "flail mower". Often used for mowing ditches. It has a thick horizontal axle studded with small metal loops, from which hang small L-shaped steel blades, or flails. The long leg of the "L" has a hole drilled to go on the loop (which is actually like a clevis), and the short end of the "L" has its edges sharpened. Axle rotates very fast, and centrifugal force makes the flails stand out straight, but they will deflect if an obstacle is encountered such as a boulder or a sleeping hobo.

I was thinking more along the lines of a HD "lawn tractor" in the $4k - $5k range instead $1500 for a homeowner riding mower.
For $1500, you could probably pick up a used Skagg with a velky or sulky. Things are bulletproof, will last for decades, and do a very nice job on the lawn.

That is a baby brush hog, or rough-cut mower. It will knock the grass down. but won't leave a finished "lawn" appearance. There will be tufts or ridges, or leave strips. And will need either a lawn tractor or an ATV to pull it. Of course, if you are looking for an excuse to get an ATV...

556 Did my first mowing of the year yesterday at my rental house. Looked like jungle cause of all the rain we've gotten. Takes about 2 hrs usually but a little longer yesterday cause of having to make 1/3 width passes instead of 2/3rds width. Having to manuver around all the trees is a bitch.

569 For my postage stamp of a lawn? Home Despot's cheap "Yard Machine", 3.5 hp OHV gas mower.

Given to me nearly new, by a realtor friend. He'd sold a house, and the seller abandoned the mower, as he was moving to a yardless condo somewhere back East.

First or second pull start, every time. Cuts like a hammer.

Best free mower, ever.

Funny -- back in college we had a drink nicknamed "the green death" -- keep green cdm, Bacardi 151, and clear 100-proof peppermint schnapps in the freezer. Layer pours in a shotglass -- first the straw-colored 151 (will end up on top), then the clear schnapps (middle), finally the green cdm (bottom). When you shoot it, you'll note your breath is fresh and minty!

594 Asheville Robert.

Always strip off the old roof, down to the deck.

Or, NO manufacturer will warranty your new shingles and roof. Not a one of them.

I know you don't live on the Gulf Coast. But, you get violent weather there, too.

Have your roof installed to Miami-Dade or Texas Windstorm Insurance Association coastal standards.

Just. DO.

You'll end up thanking me when the next kick ass storm Fs up all your neighbors, and your roof stays intact.

697 Skyrim/Steam update: The paid mods rollout has been a spectacular disaster. Where the workshop used to have 5-10 new entries a day, this weekend there've been over 30 every 12 hours that I've checked, with most being protest mods against the idea of paid mods (about a dozen $1 mods that add a potato or something similarly useless, a similar number insulting the CEO of Valve, a $99 mod putting genitals on the back end of all the game's horses, and my favorite, a mod that lets you turn down gold quest rewards saying 'I didn't do it for the money') and no serious paid mods as far as I can tell have been added beyond that 17 that appeared with Thursday's announcement.

Oh, and a couple of paid mods have already been pulled because they used content created by other modders, a common practice no one much cared about when it was all free, now, there are lawyers involved.

Modders responsible for some of the biggest, both in terms of importance (the unofficial patches which fix over 15000 bugs still in a game that's four years old) and size (Falskaar which I don't use but apparently gives you another continent to explore) have already publicly stated their disinterest in the scheme. And the comment boards on steam are, well, the term 'inferno' comes to mind.

In case you missed it, Steam announced Thursday that it was allowing modders for skyrim to charge for their mods, which were previously universally free (and the main reason anyone would buy a game that's 4 years old and still full of bugs). Now, I believe in the right of an individual to own one's work as much as anyone here, but there is an established culture of modders that see it as a hobby and of mutual benefit to have it free (with donations options that exist mainly where users have begged for them-in at least one case I've seen, modders legally can't charge due to other contracts they are under) which Valve is running into. Further the deal, as best as I can determine is this:
You set a price for your mod. Eventually, steam says modders will be able to set paid mods at 0 and let users set a higher amount, but as of today the prices are take them or leave them.
You get 25% of whatever's pad, with Valve and Bethesda splitting the other 75%
You can't claim any of it until it accumulates to at least $100
Valve isn't writing any checks here, even if you top $100, it goes straight to your steam wallet so you can get more games from them.

Users who don't want to pay are upset. Modders by and large seem to be insulted either by the prospect of a paywall, or the enormous cut Valve and Bethesda are taking. And the CEO of Valve was on reddit earlier trying to claim he didn't know anything about it. I'm told he went from being a bit of a dock star there to now, you have to specifically search for his comments as they've been so overwhelmingly downvoted.

Sorry for the length, but I figure at this hour only two of you will mind, and I may not be around for the gaming thread tomorrow (bad head cold messing with my sleeping pattern)

I don't think he's saying it was a political movie. I think what he's saying is how it would be seen by, say a freshman class in college today, rather than how we saw it originally. Which is to say it's a comment about the country, not the movie.

742 One of the more amusing nuances to a "peaceful separation" involves the national debt. Does anyone not currently high and orbiting expect the Conservative States of America to not repudiate their share within the first 12 milliseconds of the separation?




I mean, let's put this right up front -- the strategy was to run-up government debt that would at some point be paid by taxpayers....who had to have taxable earnings.



And pay the proceeds of this monstrous debt out to inner cities, unions, academia, lobbyists, layabouts, the MSM, and bureaucrats.



And we're expected to split the debt 50-50 between the earners and the parasites, and have the earners honor-bound to make their part good.

752 Hate to be a buzz-kill, but any national divorce would leave the bulk of coastal space in the hands of the commies, and their rapid collapse would invite UN (read: Russian and/or Chi-Com) "peacekeepers" to land.

Not to mention that the Chi-Coms aren't going to let the trillions we owe them slide just because, domestically, we're not in a good place right now.

Depends what you mean by 'out'. I suppose we could conceivably all volunteer to be dirt poor while the folks in government live like as kings but pretend they've made good on their promises.

Looking at Baltimore tonight, and similar situations where people air their grievances over someone they almost certainly didn't know, I don't much expect passivity when the day comes that some has to say 'Dude, you're poor and now you're going to have to live like it because there's nothing we can do about it.'

Surrounded by enemies is surrounded by enemies. The Chinese would run into the same blade of grass issue the Japanese were worried about even on the coast, and I doubt Russia could sustain any meaningful occupation here (just look at the time its taken them to carve little pieces out of Ukraine). Besides with Europe undefended, Russia can find other ways to occupy it's soldiers' time.
