15 As for washing clothes in space, here is what you do:

2. roll the laundry into the airlock
3. open airlock

Meaning the anthropologists can argue on the taxpayers' dime for another century about the origin of humans. This is why PDT and Elon were right to slash mucho science stuff out of the Federal Budget. How does knowing any more than we think we know today about the origin of homo sapiens improve anyone's lives, other than the eggheads getting paid big bucks to research it? If it's so damned important, let Bill Gates or other private fat cats fund all the science non-essential to improving our lives!

My go-to breakfast at a restaurant is two over easy with hash browns, and coffee. Some days I add bacon.

Since there is professional cornholing, I suppose it's a sport too.

Legitimate, schlegitimate.
In the '50s it meant homosexual anal intercourse. Despite idiots seizing it to describe a game with a perfectly good name (beanbag) like a 10 year old swearing in front of some old ladies, it's still stupid.
I think that 70 years of antisocial use makes it denotable.

148 "The Fisher King" is a pretty good movie. Looks good in 4K.

"Samurai Jack" is the best action cartoon ever.

"The 39 Steps" works really really well, decades after it was made. Hitchcock probably made the best films.

It would be interesting if TJM reviewed Robert Wise movies. "The Day The Earth Stood Still," "The Haunting," "The Andromeda Strain," "The Sound of Music," "West Side Story." "Star Trek TMP," he sure had a lot of influential hits.

170 I think it was Apollo 8 , after splashdown in the pacific, a Navy Frogman secured a raft around the command module. When they opened the hatch the Navy guy more or less slammed the hatch back closed right in their face, kind of rude.

Once the spacecraft was secured on deck and things had settled down, Anders or somebody saw the Frogman and asked “hey what was that all about?” He said “Check this out” and opened the hatch again. 3 guys stuck in a container the size of a large car for a week, puking, etc, they got to smelling pretty ripe

Don't need the piercing commentary.

180 Just learned the Texas Coral Snake has a venom said to be second only to the black mamba in toxicity.
However, most bites are dry and those bites that do envenomate, only around 10% are fatal.
Posted by: People's Hippo Voice
--------
The teeth that deliver the venom are not fangs in the front of the mouth, but in the back of the mouth. To deliver venom, the snake has to, basically, chew on you. Every serious North American Coral snake bite occurs when someone is handling the snake.
The wife described a red black and yellow striped snake in the garden a couple of weeks ago. She couldn't detail the order of the stripes so I can't be sure, but it was likely a Scarlet King. In either case, it did the usual for both species; it slithered away out of the garden.

A friend's father had this restaurant tale from BME (Before the Microwave Era). He was asked if he wanted a baked potato. He asked if they were steamed or baked because he only wanted baked. She assured him, baked. It came wrapped in foil from a steamer. Eventually, after some 'gentle' explanation of the difference in baked vs. steamed, that went back.

I love baked potatoes, not microwave ones. I love the crispy baked potato skin. I scoop out the flesh and eat that like mashed. The potato skins then are a treat, like it's two vegetables in one.

273 The spud innards should be sparkly when opened, if that makes sense. There is an additional benefit to baking, a welcome increase in the ability of the spud to absorb greater quantities of butter and sour cream (which should be employed in prodigious quantities)

We also have plenty of bees, hornets, and wasps. Yellowjackets are vying with mosquitoes for the title of "State Bird."

284 I will add that I've recently discovered this one neat trick with a baked potato.

Like I said, potato skins, love them. They can become a whole separate dish, with chili/cheese or whatever; plain is good to me. Anyway, I take the flesh out into a bowl, I fork in some butter and let it cool. I cover and refrigerate. That becomes my breakfast hash browns a day or three later.

I pull out of the fridge to let come to room temp a bit. Start a pan. Add butter. Melt. Add potato. Spread around the pan, breaking up big chunks. Lightly, or darkly, brown. Once browned and warmed, add some finely diced onion. Let them turn translucent. You're done. Maybe 15 minutes.

A deer? A moose? Maybe a horse? Stopped, and looked at it where it had stopped by a fence line. It was a llama. "Oh, somebody's pet got loose." Drove ahead a quarter mile, into some guy's driveway. He comes out on the deck. "Anybody around her keep llamas? There one roaming loose." Him, "No. There is a herd a couple of miles west, and the herd booted this one out. Nobody can catch it." Me, "So, a rogue llama?" Him, "That's right." Me, "I was concerned it might be somebody's pet. Wouldn't do to run into it; that would make me a ramallamadingdong."

Speaking of the Copy Cat machine, I had an idea for a business once. I may have already mentioned it here, not sure. Anyway, I had a very sick cat once and I went from being hopeless at giving it pills to expert. I could get those pills down its throat in 2 shakes and no back-talk.

Meanwhile, there are people who are still lousy at it and they take their cats in to the vet and pay a service fee, or they get their curtains and lower arms shredded.

So I start this business called the Catter Piller. Pronounced like the pre-butterfly. Anyone who needs their cat pilled, I come around and pill their cat and charge them $10/pill or maybe $10/session, depending on how nice I am. Probably make $200/day, 7 days a week.

Ah. But, it is Shannon's Law.

356 From HearCenter.org. Children and teens can hear frequencies above 18khz. For teens and young adults typically this drops to to about 16khz. That ceiling tends to persist for a couple decades, but at ever increasing volumes. By age 50, the average top audible frequency at normal volume is around 11.2khz. Around age 70, the average person hears sounds up to 9.8khz. This is inversely proportional to one's audiophile budget.

Oh, for the love of--

I remember Victor Davis Hansen's words about the last time this happened. "While America, the sullen bad cop, has to sit by while Europe luxuriates in the socialist ideologies it can afford thanks to America's vigilance..."

At that time, I recall the European negotiators asking Iran for some nominal concession "to silence the Americans."

You can re-direct Iran's nuclear program to peaceful purposes by dangling porn in front of them and while they're all watching, blowing it all up. I'm not sure what you do with their uranium -- probably take it back to the States and raffle it off.

Different definitions of 'superior.'

It’s very easy to blow speaker voice coils with solid state, usually by underpowered amps overdriven into clipping. Tubes don’t do that. Lots of guitar amp designs go to great lengths to emulate the sound of tube amps, never the reverse however.

In terms of distortion, the curious thing is tube amps playing back distorted tube guitar amps recordings sounds more live, more realistic. So does analog vinyl. Technically of course it is terrible, and inferior. But, I don’t listen to numbers. I listen to music. The “wooly” sound on the low end bass, and open midrange sounds very similar or like a good bar band setup.

I had a lot of fun rebuilding a Dynaco 70 and FM3 tube tuner. Amazing sound. A lot of people spend way too much time listening to their stereo, but they aren’t listening to the music. It’s an elusive concept, high fidelity. I get it. But I know it can be achieved with leftover zip cord from grandma’s table lamp. Vintage solder smells better, too

That's the "sounds better to me" argument.

Aeons ago, on rec.audio.high-end on Usenet, the scientific types there would prove that digital wasn't "ruining" the sound by setting up a turntable and tube amps, and putting an ADC and DAC inline with them. A/B tests never found anything.

I think they'd burn CDs off the turntable outputs, too, and A/B the original turntable/vinyl versus recorded-CD/CD-player. Also indistinguishable, if they could keep the timing close enough.

It is all quite amusing to me. I like shinny toys but let us at least keep one toe on the ground. There are differences in how audio gear sounds but the diminishing returns curve goes logarithmic quickly. The number one thing I have experienced is the quality is the sound source and how that track was mastered is where the magic lives. I now use CD quality lossless files and they sound great. Before I went digital I had a wall of direct to disk vinyl - those things would sound amazing through speakers made of gypsum board. Today I have a AV amp, $1000 range, with a couple $700.00 2 way bookshelves speakers and 10" subwoofer. Pump Spotify through it and it kinda sucks but my ears are shot so that is a moot point. Pump the lossless files through them and things get right; it isn't a world changing difference but it is enough that the nuances of a great performance is there. YMWV.

I knew this sort of discrimination was common with the short-range crap that Hezbollah and Hamas launch, but only recently saw that apparently this approach is also used with long-range ballistic incoming.

Anyway, the intercept rate has been around 90% so far, I think, so some of those 7 musta been "misses".

402 I know this killer guitar player and one night I asked him what kind of tubes was he running in his amp. He looked at my like I was loon. His amp was an empty case into which he had stuffed a $500.00 solid state amp that was not designed to be a guitar amp. From there he had a couple pedals he used to hone the sound. That thing sounded like a 59 Fender Joe Bonamassa uses. The sound is in the man and not the gear.

453 Well, what I’m getting at, music production doesn’t use silly $4000 cables and silver solder and hipster wankery. The old school mixing boards and pots were analog. Ordinary copper wire connecting everything. Nothing “audiophile” about it, although maybe an argument could be made for the Neumann microphones utilizing a now very expensive Telefunken vacuum tube. These are still very much in demand even today.

What I’m getting at, if you’re already listening to distortion, what’s a little more going to hurt? A good tube design will sound more realistic, it sounds like a tube guitar amp, which is distorted as hell, typically.

In terms of power output, if you want serious watts, solid state is the way to go. Also, tubes were replaced for some very good reasons in terms of long term reliability. They have also gotten expensive, old stock US and European power output and rectifier tubes. The Russians and Chicoms have restarted some tubes for the audio market and they sound OK, but they don’t last very long at all. They simply cannot pass the current the originals did without going Chernobyl.

I think with their 'The Last Record Album' album, they really got their sound down. That's a bit rock funky, with a touch of blues funky. But funky all the way through. Even love funky ('Horizontal Mambo'). Little Feat funky. I love that album, and have since I bought it when it first came out. One of my albums which made the cut, buying the cd when those came out.

One of those bands I am glad to have seen, with Lowell George. Bonnie Raitt opened at Norfolk's now gone Tides Stadium, a minor league ball park (Mets farm team). They had a few concerts there but that was the only one I ever went to.

The stadium only sat around 6,000 people, with nobody on the infield; the stage was somewhere around the pitcher's mound/2nd base. Pretty intimate setting, all things considered. (Like a few airplanes flying overhead early on during the concert, coming and going from the city airport across the interstate.)

But still, Little Feat.

473 Abbey Road has a collection of microphones like none other on the planet including the Neuman 50. And the engineers knew what they were about when setting up the gear.

https://is.gd/8S60fr

Everything has changed today. Software and solid state gear lets everybody have a studio. This is a good thing. On the other hand the old methods of how a studio was designed and equipped produced some of the greatest recordings of all time starting in the 1950s. Capitol Records had at least one studio with a garage size analog reverb chamber in the basement which was controlled by opening or closing floor vents. This in part is why Sinatra's, among others, recordings have the certain stellar sound.

Quick Hits

New York state is facing a massive deficit so of course Kathy Hochul directs $50 million to be spent on defending illegal aliens from deportation.

Sounds like New York has too much money. Cut their federal funds to zero.

Might as well elect the radical Muslim socialist who has only been an American for seven years and who has screamed "Defund the Police" for most of those.

Here's NYC's next mayor getting violent with cops as he attempts to menace Tom Homan.

Let it burn. Ship every damn illegal criminal who the ACLU blocks from deportation to NYC, Boston, LA, and SF. Let them choke on illegal alien murders and rapes.

They write it off, Jerry.

Trump is said to have blessed, privately, Israel's previous strikes but is asking them to hold off on a final round of decapitation strikes, in the hopes that madmen will finally find reason.

I doubt it, but, good luck.

The same people say Iran can't have a nuke because they are religious fundamentalists are the same people who hold the heretical belief that we must support Israel's non-stop campaign of murder, blackmail, land theft bombing & starvation of the innocent because 'God will bless those who bless the 1948 created nation of Israel'.

Noted Philosopher Whoopie Goldberg -- real name, Karen Johnson -- says that people living under Iran's terror regime have it better than blacks in America.

THEN EMIGRATE THERE. If you believe it, act on it.

If you don't act on it, you don't believe it, and you should stop lying.

I wouldn't hold my breath.

During a heated exchange on The View, co-host Whoopi Goldberg claimed that the experience of black Americans in the United States is equivalent to the conditions faced by citizens under the authoritarian regime in Iran.

The discussion began when co-host Alyssa Farah highlighted the severe human rights violations in Iran, noting that the regime will "literally throw gay people off buildings" and routinely suppresses basic freedoms. She argued that such conditions are vastly different from life in the United States.

Goldberg immediately rejected the comparison, responding that the US is known to "tie gay folks to the car." She then compared life in Iran to black Americans.

"I'm sorry, they used to just keep hanging black people," Goldberg said. "It is the same."

Farah pushed back, emphasizing that Iran in 2025 is nothing like the modern United States. She noted how if she were to walk the streets of Tehran wearing a skirt and her hair showing, she would be severely punished for it. "I think it's very different to live in the United States in 2025 than it is to live in Iran," she explained.

Goldberg dismissed the distinction, replying, "Not if you're black," a remark that was met with applause from the audience.

"This is the greatest country in the world," but also "just like Iran." The idiot emotionalism over any perspective on this show (valiant effort from A, here). All bad things are bad & the same amount of bad & therefore we are the worst but also the best. CLAP CLAP CLAP https://t.co/Eijr9hebwd

Republicans' cruel crusade against trans kids is all an attempt to divert attention from ripping healthcare away from millions of Americans.
