The Morning Rant

talking ape.jpg
"WE'RE NOT THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!" screamed CNN as their accountants wrote out a big honkin' check to Nick Sandmann for defaming him.

"I'd like the settlement to include an epic groveling on-air apology by Brian Stelter, wearing oversized diapers, while eating kibbles from a dog dish on all fours, but that's probably too much to hope for.

"So, my question is, what are they going to do to improve? I'd like to think that there will shortly be a meeting of the CNN bigwigs where the CEO gets up in front of everybody and says something like, 'Guys, we really fcuked it up this time. We screwed the pooch, we got caught with our pants down, we pulled a boner, we dropped the ball, roughed the passer, stepped on our own dcik, got called for unsportsmanlike conduct, and made an unforced error. So what are we going to do to prevent these giant payouts in the future? How do we improve our product?

"Because in any other industry, a meeting like this would be taking place. A failure analysis would be started, procedures reviewed, and there would most likely be personnel changes. But you turn on CNN right now, and what do you get? The same lineup of half-sentient tubers whose reporting was so incompetent and maliciously biased that their bosses knew they'd lose the defamation case if it ever came to trial, so they bravely turned their tails and fled.

"And this nonsense will continue until the crappy journalismists start losing their jobs because of their crap journalismisng. But first, they have to see this is a bug, not a feature of the way they do business. In other words, they have to first admit they have a problem, and I don't think they've even got to that point yet."

Monday's Celebs: Singer Linda Ronstadt and musician Gram Parsons. Ms. Ronstadt is beset with health issues and can no longer use her singing voice. Parsons died of a overdose back in 1973 after shooting himself up with too much morphine. The circumstances subsequent to his death, as alluded to by MPPPP in the thread, read like something out of a low-budget comedy/horror movie. The connection is the music they collaborated on, notably:

Harris and Ronstadt both sang on the final song on [Parson's] final album "In My Hour of Darkness"

84 If freaking CNN had really given a sh*t about accurate reporting, there's this thing called a search engine (friends don't let friends google) where they simply could have typed "demonstration, january 18 2019, lincoln memorial" and been presented with several different video angles of what took place.


In fact, I'm pretty convinced they'd seen those and chose the best possible angle to get their talking points. How could you not have the remotest curiosity to check even if the first video you saw was the incriminating one? I expect a lack of curiosity from politicians, but not "journalists". I hope they go down in flames.

119 And speaking of not funny, I happened to catch Roy Orbison's 1967 comedy Western The Fastest Guitar Alive. What a stinker.

MGM signed Orbison to a five-picture contract. When Guitar bombed, MGM cut him loose.

But the studio is to blame. The script is cliché, the performances bad (poor Orbison is stiff as a corpse, with no sense of how to deliver a line) and the soundtrack has perhaps two good songs - the title tune and a lovely ballad, "Rollin' On."

They live or die with access to power.

My first instinct is to arrest them for treason and sedition. But in lieu of that - pull all CNN press passes, permanently. Make it an executive order that anyone employed by the Trump administration who appears on, phones to or even is caught leaking to CNN is immediately fired, with all pension revoked. Also make it clear that any GOP rep, senator or associated staffer who appears on, phones to or is caught leaking to CNN will be locked out of the White House and the closest they will get to seeing the president is by watching him on television.

Starve the bastards of their access. Short of bodies against the wall, that is the only way to straighten them out.

291 Serious question: how does CNN make any money?


I
imagine it's a loss-leader, like MSNBC. If they were standalone they
would perish, but as a boutique news channels funded by yuge
corporations, they can be run as partisan DNC propagandists. Regardless
of that, though, they have to be dealing with declining advertising
rates based on their abysmal ratings? At some point someone will have to
take action, right?

Worrying about whether or not minute, inconsequential things like wearing a toupee are sinful is *itself* a sin. It's the pride that says "Well, I am me, and I am by definition perfect, therefore I can't be allowed to do anything that isn't perfect, so I have to go to ridiculous lengths to avoid sinfulness."

Let's see, Bret, they use their oil and "deal" money to pay proxies to sow terror across the ME. For example, the payments made to the families of Palestinian martyrs. They can pull those payments any time they want - thus controlling a lot over how much their proxies are motivated to do.

But since the MSM always forgets to mention that you have to go with vague ruminations over how they could possibly control their proxies. . .

If you show pics of famous Civil War generals, but the pics are from say 20 years earlier, it gets really difficult. Many historical figures are known because the picture itself if well known. Throw them another one from a year they were not famous, and it gets very tough.

Of course note. Put yourself in Iran's place:

- The people in your enemy's country don't like you, and might demand action if you go on the offensive

I wouldn't strike, either. I would take my billions, spin up my centrifuges, and laugh at Obama's contempt. There was no point in engaging the US militarily in any way because doing so might raise the ire of the people and force the president's hand.

435 A thought keeps occurring to me.

Look at Carter. Look at Bush Jr. Look at Obama. All men who have never in their lives had a real enemy. Sure, they've had rivals, or competitors, but not a real existential enemy, out to destroy them.

Trump has spent his entire professional life fending off enemies trying to end his career. He knows what it is to fight back. Our last run of presidents (hell, maybe even including Reagan to some degree) don't have that "life experience".

I dunno. It just seems salient, is all.

A lot of small, bullet-like holes would be typical for a Russian built AA missile. They like to surround their missile warheads with a large number of steel balls, so that a near miss of a plane is still a hit.

Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at January 08, 2020 12:15 PM (KZzsI)

I am with you. The idea that if some abuse something we all should be punished is lefty and authoritarian. They used opium, laudanum etc in the old West and somehow they survived. Hell, we used Heroin and morphine in the Civil War and no one got carded. They were too busy getting their legs sawed off.

People have been experimenting with tobacco for some time. There are supposed to be many pharmaceutical uses for the plant. It is also a good pesticide and works on bee stings. One of the last Virginia statewide Repubs was in big with a company that was doing all types of pharmaceutical research with tobacco. I still say he got screwed on that one but I did not follow it closely. He was an R so it is likely he got screwed.

Crazy like a fox, maybe.

There were three obvious responses to Iran's attack on our embassy (and don't kid yourself - it was Iran).

1) Do nothing. Not a Trump option.
2) Crank up sanctions, bigly.
3) Hit back at Tehran.

Trump took a different way out - he killed their mastermind. A totally unforeseeable response and I suspect it caught them flat-footed. Just like his release of the Zelezny transcript did.

It left Iran in a bind. It was an attack and an important one, but it didn't hit them directly, didn't occur in their borders, didn't carry any economic consequence (though it did carry significant military consequence).

What to do? What can you do without provoking or escalating?

It was a smart move, I think.

I rode in one a couple of years ago. I haven't been pushed back in the seat like that in a long long time. And this was on wet roads.

Nope, this is not about us. They know they cannot really win a shooting war with the US.

This is about their own internal dissent. They have killed thousands of their own over the last few months. They are facing large scale internal problems. They created this incident to try to create an outside threat, so they could hold power.

Trump did not bite, and is going to INCREASE the sanctions which are leading to many of their internal problems (Iran cannot feed itself).

They are not just starting to break records with sales, but they are in the forefront with the lithium battery development. They purchased a major company for this purpose.

Have you seen the Powerwall? The Tesla home battery? It needs to be improved for areas with horrible climate, but so far, it's pretty sweet. Looks dangerous, but then, all energy sources could be considered that.

I'm looking at a lithium battery versus those traditional fuel-based generators for power outages. Many have been used on a smaller scale (Jackery, portable power station for campers). Some of the larger ones (that construction sites use) can power refrigerators, etc. Short windows though, depending on the size.

I've also read how they are refurbing the batteries now.

One YUGE change in foreign policy that I've wanted to see for a long time is-

No more of this polite diplomatic fiction of -

"Oh, well. Allah's Army of the People's Tunisian Conclave of Camel Fuckers is a radical group.*sigh* There nothing we can do.


I was pleased to see that Trump botched this very idea the other day in passing in his comments.

They are not just starting to break records with sales, but they are in the forefront with the lithium battery development. They purchased a major company for this purpose.

Have you seen the Powerwall? The Tesla home battery? It needs to be improved for areas with horrible climate, but so far, it's pretty sweet. Looks dangerous, but then, all energy sources could be considered that.

I'm looking at a lithium battery versus those traditional fuel-based generators for power outages. Many have been used on a smaller scale (Jackery, portable power station for campers). Some of the larger ones (that construction sites use) can power refrigerators, etc. Short windows though, depending on the size.

I've also read how they are refurbing the batteries now.

668 "Seriously? I thought internal combustion motor was the most efficient per btu?"

The Diesel engine driving the wheels directly is definitely more efficient than engine -> generator -> battery -> electric motor. That is 2 additional conversions, which each probably lose 20% of the energy.

678 Never heard of anyone getting in and out in under 1 hr 40 though. Usually 2-4 hours with normal traffic.

Yeah electric car companies lie about range and recharge time just like gas car companies lie about gas mileage.

I guess Tesla makes sense if you like the car and are going to drive it to/ from work and plug it in overnight.

If they made a really low end commuter, maybe. The problem is that the front end cost and battery replacement makes the car never actually ever cheaper than gas. I ran the numbers years back: they charge so much for these things that it plus the cost of electricity adds up to be so expensive that it takes more than a decade to finally be cheaper than gas powered cars.

And by then you have to buy another 5-10k battery pack (plus disposal costs, installation, etc). So you never actually save money.

Yeah, GM was especially egregious (doesn't the government STILL own part of them??) but they've all done it. Its just Telsa is really excessive about it. The entire operation was built on government money, they only exist and continue because they suck on that government teat. Without it, they'd collapse like every other electric car company. Most of the models that came out in the Obama administration are not being made any longer because they money ran out.

686 678, You are absolutely correct on the financial numbers which is why finance majors tend to do quite well in the job market. They take the emotion out of investment decisions. Ultimately, all sorts of things are effectively energy storage at the atomic level but some are more effectively utilized by technology than others.

Physics as we understand it, has all sorts of practical limits that engineering has discovered. For example, hydrogen fuel cells, which have been the holy grail of non-pollution haven't been massively adopted. One, is that to produce large amounts of hydrogen, you more or less have to spend a lot of energy to do so, and second, hydrogen is a rather nasty substance to contain due to its gas properties at normal temperatures.

If you take the total requirement to convert to a hydrogen economy for moving vehicles, then it is apparent that it won't really help the environment much if at all.

Converting to a battery economy using lithium is somewhat similar. You still need the energy to produce the batteries etc. and then the energy on a recurring basis to recharge the darn things.

Ultimately, reliable power generation at an affordable price to society depends on either nuclear or fossil fuel--nat gas, petroleum, possibly coal as the fundamental support for our civilization.

Solar, wind, geothermal, hydro electric power generation is all niche applications and apart from geothermal require some sort of storage mechanism. Hydro is fairly easy, solar, wind, not so much.

Geothermal is most valuable in the term of reducing electrical needs of heating and a/c where the techniques are well understood and can be applied at a relatively small premium.

Solar is most useful in passive designs of new structures. Wind is very useful for killing birds (especially raptors) or pumping water from wells into storage facilities. For electrical applications, both of these are best employed in niche applications combined with on-site storage for individual anti-fragility purposes.

Hydroelectric can work and is well understood, however, eventually you do have to deal with the silt problem and whether or not the dam is used for flood control/drinking water purposes as well. What is well tailored for one application is problematic for others.

687 684, Senior Kurt, it is obvious that you do not understand accounting. Revenue does not equal profit. The major reason that ATT keeps CNN in existence at all is to A) influence lawmakers to keep their mitts off ATT and B) use CNN as a loss leader source of content for their package requirement of channels on their TV offerings. Having Fox or Comcast owned MSNBC would require payments to that company and inflate the base price of their packages. Requiring those channels as addons for higher tier packaging gives them more money.

BTW, there are a number of good places to get your GED that will help you educate yourself and gain worthwhile employment in the economy.
