Tuesday Overnight Open Thread (10/1/24)
Well that certainly worked out better than I thought it was going to.
So a taller Mt. Everest. Who knew?
"A dress code? What's a dress code? Genius Award Winner.
A Texas judge placed a mother in handcuffs after she wore an inappropriate outfit and was seen using her cellphone to take a photograph in the courtroom earlier this year, the Daily Mail reports. District Court Judge Stephanie Boyd was seen reprimanding the woman for her wearing shorts and breaking courtroom rules by using the cell phone while her son appeared to be the defendant in the court case Boyd was presiding over in a TikTok post re-shared earlier this month.

I skimmed the Horde's comments. Apparently Tampon Timmy did a faceplant on Tiannamen Square. Also, the questions are mostly about muhbortion and not trivial nonsense like the fighting in KEEEV or the Middle East, or inflation or immigration, and *certainly* not about conspiracy theories like people taking shots at OrangeManBad.

Eventful night. I'm at my sisters and we get a call from our Mom. A car crashed into my parents car while sitting in the driveway. Parents were inside the house. We go to our parents. A car was sideways, leaning against my parents car. Lots of old trees in my old neighborhood yet this car missed them all. Kind of a miracle. The driver was taking stuff out of her car, didn't use the parking break, it's a stick shift, and gravity took over. It went down hill, crossed the street, cut over the neighbors yard, hit the edge of her house, flipped down a small hill, rolled next to Mom's car. Amazing really. (cont'd)

The important thing about Vance is that we need a successor to Trump. So the BIG thing is this debate is when you ask yourself, "Does THAT GUY, that we just saw debating, have what it takes to succeed Trump?"
The answer to that seem pretty clear, and the answer is "Hell, yeah!"

That's exactly why he was picked. I don't think it's lost on Trump that he has one term and fixing this country is going to take a lot more than one term.
Trump is the rolling ball of razor blades that we need to take down the entrenched powers that have taken over this country. Vance is the clam, handsome, young leader who can continue the fight after his 4 year internship.

One of the pro-Iran people on X noted that the flights out of Israel are full today, and concluded that this showed that Israelis are fleeing, as opposed to taking advantage of the holidays.
Also, Hatzerim Airbase was completely destroyed by Iranian missiles, albeit with no casualties.

Enough muriatic acid could dissolve the grout completely. Maybe one could just paint over the grout with white latex paint, and then wipe the excess off the tiles?

I made a stab at sealing my sister's trailer roof. I am leaving it for two days to let the seam lapping compound set up, and then I will top it with the sealant coating.
with luck it will get her through the winter until I can figure out if she needs a rebuild or a new trailer.

Muriatic acid is hydrochloric acid. Exact same product. The former name is used in commerce, the latter in chemistry. In other words, it's a chemical that was so widely used in commerce and industry, it got it's own generic name.
Just like "lye" is sodium hydroxide. Or "caustic soda".

This has been known for a long time, the other thing is the peak itself is weathering away more or less as fast as it is growing, so it is in a sort of semi-stasis
The other thing is that some geologists believe that the weathering is one of the major elements in sequestering CO2 and is argued by some paleontologists that this or a similar weathering was the reason for the extreme cold eras in geological pasts, like the ones associated with the Siberian and Deccan traps.

One thing for a fat safe superpower like the US to engage in its idiotic Beltway leak one-upsmanship, another for a small country playing for all the marbles.
And it's possible Hezb/Syria are fairly blind. Not sure Russia has or will devote the assets to give them much granular info on what's going on in the south, and drones may not be the answer. One wonders just what Hezb is using for tactical comms any more, given the, umm, "difficulties" with same in recent weeks. There have been lots of small special operations in south Lebanon going back months. Probably the best prepped battle field Israel has ever had.

Supposedly, when they got to the Himalayas, they took a reading on the highest peak and found it would have to be almost 30,000 feet tall for their survey measurements to be correct.

"Enhanced rock weathering builds on a natural part of our climate system. As rocks are worn away by rain (or “weathered”
, they release elements like calcium and magnesium. Meanwhile, CO2 in the air goes through other natural reactions to become carbonic acid (found in rain) or bicarbonate (found in the ocean). When these different compounds meet, they join to form new rocks like calcium carbonate, better known as limestone.
In this way, rocks help draw CO2 out of the atmosphere."

Some limestone is fossil reefs, and some is lime mud, apparently chemically precipitated without any fossils to speak of. And there are, of course, intermediate stages. Of great interest to the oil industry. Reef limestones can be bonanza oil reservoirs, because they can have epic levels of porosity and permeability.

The guy was an NYC social scene fixture in the '80s. I don't understand where this germaphobe idea came from.
He wasn't Howard Hughes screening films alone while surrounded by Kleenex boxes.
He celebrated his 2016 Republican nomination with, IIRC, a Big Mac and fries made by some rando.
Is that the behaviour of a germaphobe?

On the issues that matter, such as economy and immigration, the questions were brief and the bimbos could not run away from them fast enough. Why? Because...
On the issues that are fringe, every one of them was argued on Democrat turf. Not a single fringe issue was discussed that put the democrats on their heels.
The big takeaway is Vance, who proved himself, once more, a masterful communicator. Slick, polished, well prepared, good smile, friendly but willing to be serious, will argue without sounding whiny like Romney. Stays on message unlike Trump. Appeals to everyone that's not a godless leftist loon. He's the future.

As young ravenous males, of course we were "observant" on this matter - and it was a vast wasteland. I still recall the only hot ones we could all remember were two at a tea house - a "fancy", more modern place. Clearly Party brats - denim skirts, nice shoes, etc. But that was *it*, for months of, well, "research". So we predated amongst our own group, with good results, but still. When the system collapsed and all the talent emerged, it was amazing.

True, but at one point in production the TP is on a roll that is something like 8 feet wide and 8 feet in diameter. It gets cut and re-rolled to household size. What if the cutting blades are imported?
My point being, a scary amount of manufacturing has been off-shored and we might find shortages in unexpected places.

Democrats after tonight: The VP position is NOT the president, and has a very small role in the administration.

Well, sweet cheeks, since a "fetus" has its own DNA, I would say it is pretty clear that it is a seperate human being. But if you intent on murder, at least own it. Ass.

They call it a fetus so that simple minded people like you, who refuse to accept personal responsibility for anything, can soothe what passes for their conscience, by assuring themselves that that they aren't murdering their own child.

We kept the fluorine gas cylinder surrounded by bricks so they would react (burn) with any small fluorine leaks. Had a fluorine fire once but very short. Normally metered amounts of fluorine were admitted to the reaction with carrier argon gas. The exhaust, from whatever reaction, was vented to the atmosphere via a steel cylinder (repurposed lecture bottle) full of calcium oxide. Once there was too much leftover fluorine and the calcium oxide (quicklime) was burning in the fluorine.

Can't believe it's October already-- but I'm glad summer's over.
We'll probably have another couple weeks of mild weather... And so I need to unfk the pellet stove soon.

Right now, highs about 48 degrees, sunny as hell and beautiful, but already a killing frost. So, no Indian summer, but a lovely fall.

I can't help it that his panties don't fit properly. A baby is murdered every time there is an "abortion," which is murder. It's a miracle that Raimondodo survived his own infancy, honestly.

I enjoyed the tv series 'The Big Bang Theory' because the characters seemed very much like those I worked with in aerospace. One thing that turned me off to the whole series was when 'Bernadette' was pregnant, the father, Howard, consistently referred to the baby as a 'fetus', even though he was the one who most wanted the baby. Sick!

*************
Biology says otherwise. All of the criteria for the definition of life are satisfied at conception. That means that at conception, the fertilized egg becomes a human being.
It's a shame that you suck at science and have to lie about this. It's even worse that you're willing to kill an innocent human simply because they are inconvenient in the vast majority of cases. You'll deny other people their civil rights and be perfectly happy to do so.

The damage control on the dem side will be spectacular to watch in the coming days. I wonder what new 'word' they'll all be saying tomorrow. Walz was 'patient?' "tempered?' Who knows.
I bet KJP has to do a song and tap-dance to convince the WH press that Walz owned Vance in the debate.
It's a brilliant strategy letting them know that if they off Trump,they get Vance.
Good night everyone - as always I enjoy reading the posts and what is going on in everyone's lives.

I was really excited to find out that at the deepest pressure areas, like the Marianas Trench, the pressure is so high that Calcium carbonate will dissolve, and the crustaceans at that depth have found a way to excrete Aluminum to act as a barrier to prevent their exoskeleton from dissolving away,

I think that JD Vance proved that he was not an affirmative action student at Yale Law. I wonder when some former classmate comes forward with wild tales about his law school days. The Rapist, Part 2, coming soon to theaters near you!

They have a funny way of getting the “True Tax Rate”. It’s roughly equivalent to taking your taxes as a part of your actual income together with the value of all of your assets including your home.
Actual tax rate instead of “True Tax Rate”
Buffett: 18.96% instead of 0.1%
Bezos: 23.05% instead of 0.98%
Bloomberg: 2.92% instead of 1.3%
Musk: 29.93% instead of 3.27%
Apparently, these “rich bastards” don’t pay taxes in a given year because they don’t realize the value of any of their assets and probably live off of the income from the previous year.

I watched the first half hour of the VP debate. Vance seemed self-contained, entire of himself, while Walz kept shifting around and shuffling his feet. At one point he scratched at his right ear -- perhaps at an earpiece? -- and kept looking down at his podium -- checking notes he wasn't supposed to have? I headed off to bed just after Vance got into a wrangle with one of the "moderators" about illegality of our invaders. How do you think VAnce came off?
