I've been able to solve the Rubik's Cube since I was 6yo. Coincidentally - every now and again I will take a solved one and do those exact four moves enough times until it looks really messed up. Then I will do those four moves in reverse until it "solves itself". No that wouldn't work with a randomly messed up cube. Not in hell or anywhere else. P.S.

I used to work with a guy who drove one of the really big dump trucks around into and out of a pit mine somewhere. He said it was pretty dull unless someone got too close to the edge.

Psuki Pfuki is making my prediction come true: "Now that Russia has made these false claims, and China has seemingly endorsed this propaganda, we should all be on the lookout for Russia to possibly use chemical or biological weapons in Ukraine, or to create a false flag operation using them. It's a clear pattern." Indeed it is. Be on the lookout for more lies about Russia, she said. Posted by: Soothsayer, the #1 most trusted name in news at March 09, 2022 07:22 PM (fYp8D) 26

Two things strike me about that photo (if it's even real). And they're what's missing, like you would find at an American mine, if we had diamonds. 1.) There are no fences around the shaft, to protect people from accidental harm. 2.) The entire rest of the site appears to be unsecured against outsiders looking to steal. Where are all the fences and walls? At a dangerous, tempting place like a diamond mine? Posted by: Yudhishthira's Dice at March 09, 2022 07:23 PM (SKVme) 29

Y's Dice - industrial diamonds, presumably extracted through processing of bulk material extracted. This explains the lack of $ security (you may be familiar with South African diamond mines and how extensive such security is).
Lack of fencing/safety issues. (room erupts in boisterous laughter) Russia. "Safety" is at a 19th century level. They generally don't bother with such things (actually an exaggeration, it's much better than it used to be). But - Russia. Russians. Crazy SOBs. That part's not exaggerated.

Back in the day they buried a cable in the road down into the mine. Antennas on the big dump truck bumpers to follow the cable. Did I mention this was before microchips? Relay logic turned out to be too slow.

Again ace. Not sure if that was the answer to my request for gliding dogs on woodland trails, and thanks.
That vid was in the particular cafe and shows happiness makes the doggo glide. There was another one with a slightly bigger dog that I was referring to. Still amazing. Somewhere between this doggo and the malinois arcing the stream. I'm guessing goldies can't do it as they're too busy being happy-dogs and labs would only be interested if there was water! Unhappy that I've had some character cats lost that had some incredible purely vertical jumping skills. Doggos as gliders. Posted by: micky at March 09, 2022 07:32 PM (3byMq) 57

Russki press has been mentioning purported Uke plots re chem/bio warfare etc for a few days. Plots, or false-flags, or whatever, haven't paid that much attention, sort of convoluted, plus it falls into the "crudest" category of propagandistic stuff being pumped out.
More interesting was MinDef spokesman's claim this morning that 90% of Uke long- and medium-range air defense assets have been destroyed, and that patchy capabilities left do not threaten Russian aviation. He didn't mention short-range. MANPAD systems seem to be taking their toll. Posted by: rhomboid at March 09, 2022 07:33 PM (OTzUX) 60

Browsing the russki wires, there's a story about a wanted criminal (murder) who is said to be in Ukraine now (just part of the non-stop propaganda or propaganda-ish stuff Russians are fed). Interesting part - first name "Togliatti".
So I figure the guy must be in his 40s at least. Togliatti was an Italian commie party chief. City where Fiat auto production was set up named after him. But this old Soviet thing about using stupid political words or proper names as first names is something I haven't seen in people's names in a while. All-time favorites were "Elektrifikatsia" (not a bad name, for women, typically shortened to "Elektra") and Roy ("dig!!!" - a hero-project canal slogan) - as in Roy Medvedev, the dissident historian (his brother was "Zhorez", after a Spanish commie leader). Have never heard the short or nickname for the poor guys named "Traktor". Posted by: rhomboid at March 09, 2022 07:51 PM (OTzUX) 138

On the "gas giants" (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) it is hypothesized that diamonds fall as rain. This is due to the high atmospheric pressures and heat generated by the carbon that eventually circulates around the planets in the upper atmosphere.

I started leaving towels around to cover the area if I was wearing thin shirts. She was funny in that she would skitter away if you walked near her, unless she was on something only an inch high or higher. And she would do the kneading thing if you lay down. She also used to regularly steal the sleeping spots of the boy cats if they got up, like clockwork. Needed an extra bed just in case. Posted by: Oldcat at March 09, 2022 07:57 PM (eoQWY) 161

Posted by: Oldcat at March 09, 2022 07:49 PM (eoQWY) Concur. There was a higher-priced one when I was looking that had more adjustability along more axes, but I couldn't actually adjust it enough to fit as well as the mid-tier one did. It should go without saying, but you need to sit in a chair way longer than just "eh, feels OK" before deciding, so feel free to bring your laptop and coffee and a cat or two right into the store and sit your bathrobed ass down with your fuzzy bunny slippers and knock out a good four hours or so of work to see how it holds up.

Agree with the previous advice on getting an office chair. Go mid-range price-wise, I'd say. I had to get one a couple of months ago. Got it from Office Depot, and paid about a hundred bucks more than I'd intended, but it was well worth the extra money. It gives excellent back support, and my back and hips have been giving me a lot less trouble since I started using it.

OK I have to read the operators' manual because I've been slacking on requalifying on this chair. That's a lot of controls.
Yes, it will lock upright. It's got a little latch that releases the seatback, then you adjust it to where you want it, then re-clamp it. There's a tiny bit of play once it's locked, maybe 3° or so, which is more than it sounds like, just enough to be able to shift a bit.

There was a process for the Rubik's cube. I had it memorized. I could do a cube in about 90 seconds, sometimes faster.

I classify Rubik's cubes with Sudoku... there's no real "intelligence" involved, you just learn the algorithm, and apply the algorithm. The more you practice, the faster you get and the less you mess up. Like anything.
Posted by: Warai-otoko at March 09, 2022 08:04 PM (6FeV1) With the Cube there's some spatial reasoning and working memory involved so I wouldn't say it's completely outside of intelligence. You have to be able to spin it around in your head, an ability which of course is commonly tested on standardized IQ exams (for whatever stock you put in those).

167 Agree with the previous advice on getting an office chair. Go mid-range price-wise, I'd say. I had to get one a couple of months ago. Got it from Office Depot, and paid about a hundred bucks more than I'd intended, but it was well worth the extra money. It gives excellent back support, and my back and hips have been giving me a lot less trouble since I started using it.
- Posted by: Ann Wilson, aka Empire 1 at March 09, 2022 07:58 PM (y0zVi) Agree. Few years ago got completely fed up with my office chair and got a good quality mid price range one. The moment I sat in it realized exactly why my back had been hurting for years and years. I probably took a bit too much joy in introducing the old one to Mr. Dumpster.

Our solar nightmare is hopefully coming to an end. We decided to get panels because we live in a low-lying rural area with power outages. If our sump pumps fail, our basement floods in 15 minutes. We have a generator, but middle of the night start up in a storm is sketchy. Taking a vacation means having someone house-sit for the sump pumps. 2+ years later, on our second solar contractor, we are finally getting our TESLA batteries installed tomorrow!!
We were lied to, stolen from, put in danger from scam first installer. We won in small claims (will never see $), reported him to every agency in the state we could find, etc. The inspectors agency for trades found 15 code violations after the initial installation. LIVE 220V exposed wires in the basement over Christmas in 2020 where our young nieces were playing. The case has been referred to the local DA, but probably won't be prosecuted because hard to get a conviction on contractor fraud. LICENSE TO STEAL. THEY CAN'T GET PARTS - ESPECIALLY PANELS AND BATTERIES. NO REGULATION. NO RECOURSE. Welcome to the Green Nightmare.. Forget the electric car. Solar to power your house will cost at minimum $50K as well.. Posted by: kimmbber at March 09, 2022 09:06 PM (JoKSf) 420

One of my cats just died in my arms about two hours ago (I've been trying to write this for an hour). He had been diagnosed with Lymphoma, and given about 3 months to live, back in August.
I already miss him. When he was a newborn kitten (over 14 years ago) he was hissy and spitty at me when I first put him on my chest. Tonight that is exactly where he was when he passed on. In retrospect I think Monday was the tipping point and I should have been more insistent with my vet that maybe it was his time instead of getting an appointment for next week. But the past couple of days we have been inseparable, he was constantly in my lap or laying against my leg. Since last night it was pretty clear that this was goodbye. He didn't seem to be in pain, and he only would get anxious if he was away from me. I think me being at work was the worst for him. Every day for years he would greet me at the door when I would get home, until yesterday evening. But after that he would only fuss or get anxious if I lifted him out of my lap. We had a chance to say goodbye over the past few days. I don't think I'm wrong to cherish that. Posted by: The Atom Bomb of Loving Kindness at March 09, 2022 09:17 PM (lXZ2r) 440

He went out embraced in your love. One blessed kitty, who blessed you with fourteen years. Hard though, and harder still in the days to come. But, he'll be in your heart, always.

Pfizer lied to the FDA to get approval. In the document dump they told the FDA in post EUA surveillance there were "no new concerns". The numbers of doses given are redacted, but independent research shows a 133x increase in myocarditis in over 16 year olds compared to the baseline population. That should have been reported as a new concern.

Pfizers position is that the 43,000 adverse events they recorded between Dec 2020 and Feb 2021 would be the same as expected in a population that was infected with covid. So... not a concern. Except you were getting approval for a drug that was supposed to PREVENT covid.
Posted by: Cat Ass Trophy at March 09, 2022 09:44 PM (R8uWY) So you get the adverse events plus covid. Hell of a scam. Posted by: flounder, wrecker, hoarder, saboteur at March 09, 2022 09:54 PM (SH2Zi) 546
537 I found the conceit that Will Paxon, Jaime's biological father, and Jaime's talentless shrew of a baby mama were powerful political movers and shakers who were going to propel him into the governorship eminently laughable.
Posted by: Krebs v Carnot: Epic Battle of the Cycling Stars at March 09, 2022 09:33 PM (pNxlR) I know everyone is supposed to love Yellowstone but I think it's an embarrassment to everyone involved in that over the top cowboy soap opera. Posted by: lowandslow at March 09, 2022 09:50 PM (4thlk) However, I cannot wait to see who Beth is going to lay waste to in the next episode. All dramas are soap operas to one extent or another. About Jamie's little family: Stupid folks never know they are stupid. See--the Democrat party in general and other idiot liberals. They will tell you how smart they are, and then show you just how smart they aren't. I assumed that nasty bunch was in that category. But YMMV.

My other cats are taking turns hopping in my lap. I think they have me on suicide watch or something. But right now I look at them and think there's three more layers of pain to come later. That's just grief, though; I should have better perspective when the immediate sorrow fades. There's joy despite the grief and I wouldn't give up the years we had together for anything.

cowboy soap opera
This. It's Dallas, Dynasty, or Falcon Crest with a cowboy hat, more swagger, and violence. Seems to confuse masculinity with having a low IQ and trying to punch your way through life. Hate it.* * Standard disclaimer: no accounting for taste. I watch plenty that must leave people scratching their heads. Or balls. Or something else, just generally experiencing itchiness, rash, or swelling. Posted by: bear with asymmetrical balls at March 09, 2022 09:56 PM (KFhLj) 551

Posted by: Kindltot at March 09, 2022 09:55 PM (xhaym) When you have multiple cats there is another thing that happens - you hardly realize it but there are rules about who sits where at what time, who sits on the bed. When one cat dies, the others are free to take over these empty spots. In my house the senior girl is the one who gets to perch on my shoulder if I am lying down in bed. It has been passed down from senior to senor since the 80s. Always the girl except when I didn't have girls. The cats who hang out by the doors 'on guard' changes too - so far always a male.

439 That made me tear up.
My condolences. We have many cats and the worst part is saying goodbye. I do prefer it when they pass on while on our laps and I really hate having to go to a vet to do it as it seems more like an execution. My last goodbye was our almost 22 year-old tabby last year, not long after I lost my wife unexpectedly. Posted by: Ciampino at March 09, 2022 10:20 PM (qfLjt) 577

I have to think ahead now, and figure out what to do with his mortal remains. Part of me wants to bury him in my back garden. This is the only house he has ever lived in, ever. Seems wrong for him to go anywhere else. I'd plant a small flowering bush over him instead of a stone marker.
