Tonight's ONT Is Bass Ackwards

This just looks wrong.

backwards US.jpg

If you show me the outline of the US facing the other way, I can't see anything else. Show me this and I see a chicken with a big ass.

Snow Madness

Rag on Texas for how we handled snow all you want, but it's not like the Canoeheads always have a sane and rational approach to snow.

Facebook watchdogs beg Canadian town: Stop building sexy snowmen!

Now, the City of Winnipeg Complaints Department is a parody account, but the erotic snowmen are real (pics at link, semi-NSFW). It's like a million degrees below zero in Winterpeg, you'd think the residents would be inside keeping each other warm rather than out making sculptures of it.


Speaking Of Texas

Couple Hosts Delivery Driver For 5 Days After Her Car Got Stuck In The Snow

Her car got stuck in their driveway after she delivered their groceries, so they put her up for a week. That's the Texas I know.


Old Time Commercials

Sound on.

These are a hoot and a half. Scroll down, there are some more linked below the first one. Do they still make Wilkins coffee? Now I want some.


Great Moments In Sports


Connecticut town blames ‘poor decision’ for attempt to dry baseball field by lighting gasoline

Town officials in Ridgefield, Connecticut are blaming a “poor decision” for an attempt at drying a local baseball field by pouring 24 gallons of gasoline onto the area and setting it ablaze.

At least the game featured base runners with blazing speed.


Comparisons


50 Photos that Really Put Things into Perspective

Not all of these are things that are bigger than we might think, although many of them will make you think. I didn't realize how big the Mars rover is, for example.

Getting Out

There's a movie called The Shawshank Redemption, have any of y'all ever seen it? I don't think that it's ever been shown on TV, so you might have missed it. In any event, there's a scene where a trustee gets out of prison and, unable to handle the outside world, he hangs himself in his room. In the movie he was in for something like 50 years, but think how fast things are changing these days. Even a much shorter stay in prison has got to be disorienting. Here's some food for thought.

45+ Ex-Prisoners Are Sharing The Things They Found Shocking To Discover About The World When They Got Out


Fun At Work

Office Antics That Prove Humor Is Alive and Well

There's one in here that I've seen done. I knew a guy who had a whole bunch of stickers that said “Now Voice Activated! Simply say “Dry Now”” made. He used to put them on the hand dryers in bars that he visited. It was funny to hear drunk people shouting at the hand dryer in the head.

Is Your Roomba Drunk?

iRobot says it’ll be a few weeks until it can clean up its latest Roomba software update mess

No word on if they hooked up with the coffee maker and regretted it the next day.


Fried Chicken!

There's nothing really new to me about what he says except the “pressing the flour onto the chicken on the second dredge”. I tried it and it really made a difference. Mine didn't crunch quite as loud as the chicken in the video, but it was close. This is a winner.

46 For almost my entire army career, we always studied the Russian hordes in Europe. East vs West.
Or maps were always oriented like that.
One of my instructors loved to mess with the student's minds.
"What happens," he asked, " when the enemy does something you don't expect!!?! ". And then he flipped the map around. I was in the back of the class and every head tilted in the direction he flipped the map.

48 One of my favorite art eras is the Dada-Surrealism onset. The Dadaists were convinced that "civilization" brought on WWI, and so "civilization" needed to be destroyed. Which didn't work out so well, did it.

Anyway, never thought I'd be living through Dada 2: Electric Boogaloo. But here we are.

As for Surrealism, well, that's me. Way too bad Breton was so desperate to suck up to the commies. Probably should have posted this in the Art Thread. Oh well.

Gonna have to rig a block & tackle to hoist it up through the attic hatch, and depending on dimensions, I'll also have to de-install the pull down stair to make large enough opening. An electric unit, so I won't need a plumber for gas (or any other) connections, and I'll just move the 220V wire & plug from the old unit to the lugs on the new. There WILL be cussing.

I don't think building codes in WA state allow for single family homes to have a hot water tank in the attic, IIRC it is restricted to the garage if attached, or some kind of small room on the side of the house on the ground floor.
Water heaters burst more often than they should and the flooding is what costs the money.

194 ..It's much easier to just put it in the basement. Posted by: Ladyl, Insurrectionist at February 25, 2021 10:43 PM (TdMsT)

The only basement in Texas is at The Alamo. Thought everyone knew that? (and you'd hit groundwater seepage about 4 to 5 ft. down, here.) This house has spray foam insulation, throughout. In the attic, it was sprayed onto the underside of the roof decking and rafters. Attic stayed well above freezing. But that's a 13 y/o heater now, and a cheap-ass builder's grade one, at that. I'm frankly happy that it lasted nearly 13 years. The rust pisses me off, as I changed the zinc anodes about four years ago, and the old ones weren't in terrible shape. One thing though. Post freeze, the city restored water pressure to it's glorious, Pre-2008 Hurricane Ike power. And something in the water heater couldn't take the new strain.

239 Glenn Campbell and Roy Clark. The two greatest guitar entertainers of their times. Maybe a metal-shredder could rock it harder, or a classic guitarist might've played some more complex licks. But that'd be hard to imagine.

And Clark. Every bit as good on a banjo and fiddle as he was with the guitar. Campbell could sing the alphabet and out-do Clark's best vocals, but all in all Clark still could really convey the meaning and emotion when he sang, and he sang well.

A worthy waste of an entire evening, watching either of 'em in Youtoobville.

288 went to the Met Museum for the first time in a year. They moved everything around and added SJW BS.

The Medieval Hall resembles a church. Dark, lots of stone, medieval Christian statuary. You used to see, on entering, a poignant wooden polychrome Madonna and Child. He sits in her lap and holds a book, pointing to a word and looking up at her. She has a faraway look on her face. She knows what's coming.

Now first thing you see is a platform with sacred sculpture from other cultures. Camodian gods, the head of Constantine, an Aztec thing holding an axe. Ew. There's a whole room in the galleries about slavery too. There are two HUGELY offensive murals in the main hall of indigenous people helping drowning immigrants onto their island and ignoring the white people.

Of course, you had to enter all kinds of codes in the right order and it was frustrating him badly. Naturally he let's out some choice words. Across the hall is another colleague who realizes what's going on and remotely prints stuff like "Please be nice to me" and such.

CLEAN aluminum is actually a pretty fair conductor, and was considered very cost effective in it's day. Untold thousands of mobile homes and houses burned down as testimony to it's potential.

Fact is though, clean and new aluminum works just fine. Just size it right for the anticipated loads, right? But, nope. 1950s & '60s electricians used the aluminum wire, but didn't upgrade the connectors on switches and plugs, which were all still copper based. And lazy 'elctricians often "shaved" the soft aluminum to "fit" the smaller connection spaces on the copper based switches n' outlets. Much electrolysis later, Aluminum Oxide proved a very capable resistance surface at every connection, and hoo-boy, did things ever get HOT after that!

403 We were shooting in Syria under Trump. Including, once, killing a whole buncha russkis (yes) who were either more misinformed than Rick about the waters in Casablanca, or pretty stupid. Private military contractors wink-wink effectively Russian aid to the Syrian regime. Little sticky back home, politically, and most of them got military funerals or recognition, kinda sorta unblurring the blurred lines.

I haven't looked at the reported identity of the recipients of our high explosive affections today. If I did, I'd probably have to repair to the info sources to see who they are/were, and there'd be a decent chance they're new, or their name is new, or their allegiances have switched, or ....

Did see "Iranian-backed". Of course there are Iranian-backed outfits who are mere extensions of the Damascus regime, and some that have their own (crazy or venal) agenda, and some whose coloration is, well, variable. Without any info whatsoever, my guess would be groups connected to recent attacks on Coalition facilities in Iraq.

Aluminum wiring is fine and dandy if done correctly with the correct terminations. It's used all the time for big wire, but pretty much a no-no for small branch circuits.

As Jim mentioned, aluminum has some properties that make it unforgiving with poor termination. Aluminum oxides are strong insulators. And aluminum's melting and "get soft" point is much lower as well. Oxides form, junction resistance goes up, local heating goes up, aluminum gets soft, connection gets looser.

Copper doesn't suffer from this. It's oxides aren't that bad, and it doesn't get soft until very high temperatures.

Al's properties also make it a bitch to weld. The oxides are denser than the metal itself and thus will sink into the weld puddle.

421 >> Isn't there some issue with pipes where they went from Copper to Aluminum? Like if you had a copper section going to an aluminum section.

You're probably thinking of wiring. While aluminum pipe is used for many applications, it never was a house plumbing material. Copper, brass, steel, pvc and so forth are that.

Now, joining aluminum to copper (in the presence of moisture) is a disaster electrically. Some jackwagon who didn't know what he was doing actually did that with a large feeder circuit at the local church we went to. Massive heating which was melting fuses in a disconnect. The copper wiring was carrying the heat a few feet back to the switch and melting the fuses. That prevented it from getting too out of hand before they caught it.

428 Iran was actually fairly important in WWII, though only for resources and geography, not as a participant.

Second biggest Lend-Lease route to the USSR was through Iran. We had an assembly facility for trucks there, they would come in parts and sub-assemblies, be assembled, then driven north to the Caucasus and thence (before June '42 and after February '43) on to Soviet heartland.

And oil from Abadan was big for the Brits.

Iran was also where US flyers, interned in the USSR (they had been flying against Japan, the Soviets were still neutral) "escaped" from Soviet detention in the south Caucasus (narrator: the russkis connived in the whole thing).

The reaction between copper and aluminum needs moisture to occur. You can join it together and it will hold if you can keep moisture away from it.

They actually sell some connectors which do this. Basically a wire nut and some sealing compound. While they are sold, and used, they are not UL listed, and I don't think really legal per code anywhere.

To properly splice aluminum to copper you need some alloy, compatible with both metals, which goes in between.

If you look a power company service drop connections to copper SE conductors, you'll see they use a crimp-on (and these a big, high force crimpers) with two holes. Copper goes in on, aluminum in the other, and they never touch directly.

A "separated split-bolt" is another one based on that principle. You have an alloy material which gets sandwiched in between the copper and al wires.

441 One of the problems with mixing copper and aluminum is that their differing heat properties cause them to flex and mechanically work loose from fittings. With the electric panel and aluminum service entry cable, there are large aluminum lugs that secure them in place. But in the wall, using something like wire nuts or screw terminals in recepticles that are not secure enough, the wires can flex loose and arc.

Currently finishing Richard Frank's "Tower of Skulls" about Japan's armed tourism 1937-1942 (first of a trilogy). Lots of good stuff about one of the many many areas where I know/understand little - China.

And really relieved/impressed with his handling of Japanese-American internment. I actually could make at least one improvement, but his treatment is the best (i.e. least worst, most reasonable) I've seen in a major historian.

449 ..Jim, back in the 90s I used to actually buy some of the 'gold-plated' CDs sold by Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab and other labels. I joked (and always figured) that the layer of gold was so thin, I could probably penetrate it just looking at it. Posted by: qdpsteve at February 26, 2021 12:39 AM (L2ZTs)

I've got a good collection of those MFSL CDs, and they still work as advertised. Less known than the archival properties though, is that the gold medium allowed MFSL (and ONLY them) a much finer laser etching pitch than with the aluminum CDs. The Ultra-Disk contains eight times the digital information of a standard CD, and is formatted in such a way that a regular CD player can decode the math in it's own, regular way. But yield 8x the signal out to the amplifier. Not eight times louder. Eight times more "tone" inside of every note of music, and in between the notes, too. It's why an UltraDisk sounds AS GOOD as an LP, without the associated "noise".

Competing brand "gold" CDs lacked that 8x signal capacity. Accept no substitutes.

Try jumping rope. I did today. Lasted 5 minutes, in 15 second intervals. Holy cr@p. I think I need a shorter rope though. I remember being in elementary school and instead of playing "smear the queer" with the boys, I'd watch the girls jump rope (2 girls twirling the rope and 1 or 2 jumping). Much more interesting/entertaining to watch and much less painful.

465 SFgoth -- Jumping rope is excellent exercise. I do it occasionally. I've become a runner over the past year and a half. Started out just walking. Turned into walk/jog intervals. Did a few 5k races last year. Now I run 4-5 miles at least 3 times a week. Working up to a 10k this year.

I have the PDF of my sister's late father in law's pilots logbook I'm now going over, and trying to find a way to "annotate it" with details explaining some of his missions (B-26 pilot, ETO, most missions in the months after D-Day). But that's a tough slog. That kind of detail is available mostly in unit histories and archives.

Another thing MFSL did that few seem to remember. If a label agreed to an MFSL UltraDisk, said label also had to surrender the actual STUDIO MASTER RECORDING to MSFL, who digitally RESTORED and REMASTERED the original, to equal every aspect of the original, but with ABSOLUTELY clean sound and perfect fidelity. Two to try as proof. Elton John's "Yellow Brick Road", and Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon". Play them on the System of the Gods of your choice. You will never have, nor will after, hear a better, cleaner, more accurate or wide spectrum Hi-Fi version of these albums than these, on any medium, anywhere.

I'm not kidding, and this extends across the entire MFSL library. It is what they DID that made them separate from the rest. They made LPs, too. I once owned the required decoder to go between turntable and receiver. Lost now, to the dusts of time and divorce. But mostly, divorce.

Another benefit of ACSR -- skin effect. Even at 60Hz, in the large diameters, skin effect become significant, making the AC resistance significantly higher than DC.

You are wasting the center core of the wire anyway, so replacing that with steel for strength makes little difference. The AC resistance of ACSR in the larger diameters is not much greater than that of pure stranded aluminum of the same diameter.

533 I am thinking of saving money by driving like a madperson and only staying in one motel on the way there, and one on the way back.

I figure if I book one extra night during the meetup, I can rest and recharge enough to make up for the lack of stops there and back. Also I'm good with getting up super-early on drive days. For me these days, using the early morning hours in a productive way is like finding extra money in my pockets.

"Tin" cans are actually steel, with a very thin layer of tin applied. Tin is a lustrous white metal, similar to silver, and would better classed as a precious metal than as a base metal. It is very costly.

And the aluminum cans are 100% recyclable, whereas "tin" cans were not. It simply made economic sense to switch to aluminum cans.

591 I wouldn't call aluminum a poor conductor. It's a pretty good conductor. Not as good as copper or silver, but pretty good. A good heat conductor as well.

In fact, Aluminum is the 4th of the top conductors. Silver, copper, gold, and then aluminum in order of conductivity.

An article I'd read about it yesterday stated that for the last year or so, they'd only been selling goods on consignment. Or in other words, the products that they carried were from vendors that had agreed to only take payment for products after the products had been purchased by customers.

Given that, there wasn't really much of a "going out of business sale" that they could have had.

Dubya never cared about it. But Obama really, really wanted to overthrow Assad, and kept trying to get Republican support in Congress to go to war with the Syrians. Thing was, he never really gave a reason for it. Dubya had things like support for terrorism, and WMDs, for going after Saddam Hussein. But Obama seemed to think that everyone would just magically fall in line if he announced that we should kill Assad.

We churned out that pretty-good guy who went on to be the new NASA head under Trump. Our current guy, AFAIK, was solid with Trump all the way through. Not like the 2nd Cong Dist guy who just said Ashlie's murder was justified. And our Senators, one old, one new, are squishy RINOs who need to be primaried. But basically this region is among the most solid Constitutional republicans (not the non-cap) in the nation. Tulsa notwithstanding.

End of plug. Beginning of final nightcap... You may not see me agggginnnn.... ♪

-Someone decided to bomb Syria. Why? I dunno, I did not see any precipitating event- even a mention of one.

-Who? Dunno, seem to see something about Iranian allied forces?

-Who authorized? Dunno. See something about Harris not being informed ahead of time. If Biden were not suspected of being a vegetable at this point, it would be less concerning. The fact that the story seems to be: White House silent, is pretty disturbing.

It is a weird thing. The past four years have been quiet on a lot of fronts.

Society/life was so perfect and comfortable that they began to create problems just for the sake of having problems to deal with.

It might take a couple of decades (probably not, though), but this will end poorly. Best case scenario is collapse of the dollar and outright dissolving of the union into nation states. Worst case, and what is more likely, is good think enforcement and purges via antifa and BLM as Obama's private well funded citizen army he mentioned a few years ago. I believe they've already started the push to have a single "truth" media and outlaw any questioning of what the government deems "truth".

Our nation is not headed anywhere good. Look at what history tells you is next. Prepare your family for what is coming.

it has been going up since before the election. Some even denied this for some reason. Maybe in their particular areas it was not obvious. But inflation is on the move in a major way, and gas prices in particular are rising on the reg. And anything that will not be covered by inflation will be covered by increased taxes and government reduced supply.

772 Biden* will probably just submit a written by somebody SOTU, perfectly in order with the requirement. Actually, I think it should be that way and it has been submitted in writing in the past. The live, in person deal just gives the opportunity for theatrics. In Biden's* case it's because he can't put together two sentences without drifting off, dreaming of tapioca pudding and the scent of freshly washed hair.
