The Morning Rant: Minimalist Edition

I don't much care how NPR is funded. I know that it gets public money. They are welcome to play accounting games and lie to the American people, but the fact remains that CPB (Corporation for Public Broadcasting) gets several hundred million dollars from the federal government, and that means that we are paying this rancid, anti-American, commie b*tch's salary.

NPR's new CEO is just as insane as you'd expect her to be pic.twitter.com/BDob66lNne
— Nate Hochman (@njhochman) April 14, 2024

Does she reflect America? Or is she the vanguard of the reimagining of America, courtesy of the globalists in government who so dearly want to destroy traditional America and replace it with a compliant populace that accepts the insanity of intersectionality, victim politics, and communitarianism over American Exeptionalism?

She is the personification of the AWFL (Affluent, White, Female, Liberal) who has embraced every single talking point from 100 years of progressivism. In her warped view, America is beyond redemption because of the triple whammy of its original sins...Slavery, Patriarchy, and Capitalism! Of course that capitalism made it possible for her to live into her 40s without actually doing a single day of productive labor. And the patriarchy allowed society to smile at her flitting from place to place, honing her multi-culti credentials and perfecting the Newspeak of the post-modern world. If you want to puke, take a look at the fawning NYT article about her wedding, complete with a story about meeting her husband (though I doubt she calls him that) at a "nondenominational Seder! What the hell is that?

Her resume is an unblemished record of sucking on the public teat, or even worse, the shadowy world of NGO dark money. Yet she feels confident in her perspective, that she has the experience to criticize American Exceptionalism. Conveniently, she knows nothing of history, otherwise she would be at least passingly aware that America has created the most egalitarian society in the history of the world, and fought a brutal civil war to rid itself of the last vestiges of the old world.

Luckily, she doesn't seem to have procreated, which is a blessing for the future prospects of America.

Resentful, they imagine a new system--rigged in their favor-- will see them on top.
And only a loser, losing under the current rules, would think that they wouldn't be losers under new rules:
They will be.
Because it's not rules that make winners and losers.
It's who had the drive to exploit the rules.
And those same winners will win under any rules.
They will find a way.
While the losers will whine to change the rules again.

The more interesting thing is them wistfully looking back to a time before most of them were born, like watching a sitcom from the 50s, and saying that we should go back to that in terms of safety, community, and caring for each other.

While also saying that modern day America is unfettered capitalism, late-stage capitalism, and that anyone who wants to do something like locking up crazy people is a hateful bigot.

Seriously, Intrepid DU Liaison regularly brings us quotes from people saying, "It used to be safer. I have no idea how it got so bad."

175 I went to collect someone's car who committed suicide by 12 gauge. I was very thankful that he did it behind the car in a state park and not in it. It was January 20, 2005, the day Bush II was re-sworn in. The radio in the car was tuned to NPR and came on when I started the car, so that's what the man was listening to when contemplating and setting up his demise. Turns out, NPR was playing classical music, as usual, but the most dark funeral music and dirges one can imagine. They were feeding their listeners Bush Derangement.

I don't blame NPR for the suicide, but they fed into it.The widow told the coppers to destroy the gun, before someone asks what happened to it.

177 The frozen egg thing very rarely works. Low success rate I read. Mostly a waste of time by the desperate.

This is incorrect.

Based on the cycle data of 520 healthy, fertile women undergoing treatment at Brigham and Women's in Boston, the study, published in Human Reproduction, predicts that women under 35 who freeze 10–20 eggs have between a 70 and 90% chance of at least one live birth later on.

the new form of freezing, called vitrification, is significantly more effective; studies demonstrate that 90–95% of eggs frozen using vitrification survive the freezing and thawing process (compared to just 61% of slow-frozen eggs). And here at Extend Fertility, we’re using an even more effective method of vitrification called Cryotec that has a near 100% egg survival rate. So the egg freezing success rates compiled from slow-frozen eggs are not reflective of the advances in egg freezing technology.

What that means in terms of egg freezing success rates: your eggs will have the same chance of becoming a baby when you freeze them and use them later as they would if you fertilized them and used them in an IVF cycle now.

My #1 concern: he needs people around him who share his vision and will get things done. Think back to past presidents. They all had teams around them they brought into office and so aided their presidencies. Trump did not have this in 2017. BUT...I think this time around, assuming he wins, he will go into 2025 EYES VERY WIDE OPEN and with people around him who get it.

183 You'd have to have a Donald Trump president, and at least 55 percent of both houses as yea votes, to stop its funding, and I'm not even sure that would do it.

We lived in far upstate NY from '01 thru '13 and the CPB had feeder affiliate radio stations all around to get the signal into all the tiny towns of the Adirondack region. North Country Public radio. Vermont has the same thing. Local shit being broadcast in between the NPR feeds at the hour tops and in the "morning edition" and "all things considered" AM and PM slots.

How much fed funding do these member stations get?

My experience when traveling is that they can be relied upon for interesting stories and content and very good music, in between the leftist propaganda bullshit that is the NPR feed.

Way more than that, if we seal our border then *they* are left with the population of Latin America landing in Mexico, and will have to militarize *their* border.

They're fine with being a conduit, but Mexico will not permit itself to become a destination, even if that means a border war with its neighbors.

295 Pixy had a link the other day about (my interpretation)
wireless chargers extend the life of l ion batteries over using customary wall or usb chargers.

Something about vibrating A/C smooths out the battery whereas direct DC ruffles it. - very hi Tech
Posted by: Braenyard at April 16, 2024 11:53 AM (uyqzN)

My guess? The energy transfer in wireless chargers is less efficient, so the charging rate is lower. A lower charging rate heats up the battery less.

But your electric meter does more roundy-rounds to fill your phone up.

311 Scientists think they have found a way to double the lifespan of lithium-ion batteries. (Science Daily)

Lithium-ion batteries wear out a little each time they are recharged (and have another flaw that if you keep them on the charger full-time they can swell up and destroy your expensive gadget entirely).

In testing the effects of different charging patterns, researchers found that charging with high-frequency AC power caused half as much wear as regular DC power.

It should be cheap and simple to implement as well.
