There's some theory about Alzheimer's that it is a sleep disorder. That the human brain has a housekeeping crew that works on the brain at night, sweeping the floors, gathering the dust, emptying the ashtrays - stuff like that. If you put that housekeeping crew on short shift the brain starts to act like Joe Biden. Posted by: Divide by Zero at June 10, 2023 04:24 AM (enJYY) 16

I wonder if that is brand placement by Apple, and thus paying for the privilege, or just a director's choice? Personally I keep away from such overpriced POS.

15 There's some theory about Alzheimer's that it is a sleep disorder.
Posted by: Divide by Zero at June 10, 2023 04:24 AM (enJYY) ---- Well it seems that all those theories, research, drug development that went on assuming it was those strange proteins causing all the problems, was all just sucked out of someone's thumb early this century. Billions in research down the drain. That 'team' should be physically drawn and quartered. I cannot bear the thought of falsifying even a minor detail in a scientific paper. Putting forth false data is scientific sacrilege. Why did it take so long to figure out it was all falsified?

Hubby sometimes enters state of mild dementia, due to excess ammonia in his bloodstream, caused by his liver's inability to filter it all out. Said ammonia is produced in the digestive tract and can be 'flushed' before absorption if he uses enough laxative.
It's truly (and literally!) a sh1tty situation. At least (for now) it is somewhat reversible when it does occur. Posted by: JQ-- Moon Moon is my spirit animal at June 10, 2023 05:11 AM (Gkog9) 35

For sure, being stimulated and active for a period is more likely to produce a subsequent period of rest. Often without that natural Circadian rhythms get disrupted and sleep cycles become irregular, at odd hours, many become more active nocturnally.
Without a long enough sleep period you never achieve that desired REM state where the brain is supposedly "cleaning" itself. Posted by: San Franpsycho at June 10, 2023 05:13 AM (RIvkX) 37

More seriously, I did skim this and it is interesting and disappointing but not surprising.
My sense is although this research may have been corrupted like so much in our timeline, there may be other support for the idea of amyloid plaques as etiology as well as other possible sources such as sleep disorders. Posted by: San Franpsycho at June 10, 2023 05:28 AM (RIvkX) 42

You know, people who must try to sleep during the day, when others are doing their "normal" --perhaps noisy-- activities.

Is THIS the solution to global warming? Scientist claims we should MOVE the Earth away from the sun - here's how his wacky idea could really work
As of 2037, Humanity had been mining from the moon for decades. Unfortunately, they had over-mined the moon by 2037, causing it to drift out of its orbit colliding with the earth's atmosphere, tearing the moon apart and sending debris crashing to Earth. The moon's destruction shifted the orbit between the moon and Earth, devastating the cities on the planet. Luckily, most of the moon stayed intact, while some remained in Earth's orbit, forming a ring around the planet. Posted by: rhennigantx at June 10, 2023 06:24 AM (BRHaw) 85

Ryan McBeth has an interesting take on the Dniepr dam collapse. There are multiple outflow gates. The outflow gates have to be opened by moving a gantry crane over each one and lifting it. The Russians had both cranes on their side, but did not open gates because Uke snipers were shooting at the crane operators. The dam overtopped and collapsed.

Posted by: Cat Ass Trophy at June 10, 2023 07:05 AM (WGUfL) Legal Insurrection has posted a surprising set of google map photos from the week before the collapse. In them, you can see the roadway over the dam start to degrade and fall apart a couple days before the actual collapse. This doesn't tell us how the damage occurred, but it does look like a slow motion collapse began several days before the final big collapse; ie, the dam was falling apart.

Ryan's take, and this is after talking to Grady from Practical engineering, is that the Russians only had one gate wide open, and it caused that downstream part of the dam to undermine. Made a weak point, combined with the stress of overtopping, caused the collapse.

The project this weekend is to replace some siding with Hardiplank, and then paint. I had to go to 3 Home Depots to find beaded Hardiplank. One store I went to said online they had 320 in stock.

The Georgia GOP Convention is this weekend. Georgia Republican Assembly head Alex Johnson says that a Georgia GOP rule change "will bring ideological purity to Republican candidates". Under the rule, a majority of delegates can vote to stop " far-right activists" from qualifying. He likened it to homeowners who put a sign on their lawn advertising they own a firearm to deter thieves. “Politicians thinking of voting badly will start to vote better,” Johnson said.

The former president stored boxes of classified documents in various locations at Mar-a-Lago, including an office space, his bedroom, a storage room, a bathroom, a ballroom and in the shower, according to the unsealed indictment.
On 5 April 2021, a Trump employee texted a colleague to ask whether boxes in the business center could be moved to make room for staff to use it as an office. The employee responded, “We can definitely make it work if we move his papers into the lake room?” First employee: “There is still a little room in the shower where his other stuff is. Is it only his papers he cares about? Theres some other stuff in there that are not papers. Could that go to storage? Or does he want everything in there on property?” WHO REALLY FUCKED UP HERE??

>>Ivermectin for HIV would get the Pride Month nod.
FWIW, stories on Reddit recount how gay relatives took ivermectin and . . . stopped being gay. Kinda wild, if even remotely true - would also explain why western countries were so against it. Also that it might cure left cat lady toxiplasmosis on the side. . . . ![]() Posted by: Lizzy at June 10, 2023 08:38 AM (mo/0F) Posted by: Aetius451AD Work Laptop at June 10, 2023 08:39 AM (zZu0s) 384

On my way to the pickle ball court. For those who are asking, it's a cross between tennis, ping pong, and badminton. Played on a court about 1/3 the size of a tennis court with a ball that resembles a wiffle ball and paddles that look like oversized ping pong paddles. Takes 5 mins to learn and it's highly addictive.

Has anyone mentioned that KitchenAid has pulled their appliances from Target? Mentioned on Twitter yesterday and it's over the pride clothes. Bogus. A 'satire' web site made the claim and some people got sucked in. In actuality: KitchenAid is one of the companies that partnered with Dylan Mulvaney, a transgender influencer known for documenting her gender transition on social media.
