I like that. Plus I know of at least two federally funded research projects that cannot possibly produce the promised result due to flaws in the dataset available. I’d really like a bit more diligence in vetting grant proposals.

Jurassic Park gotta start somewhere.

@Mik said in Weird night…: On one of those partings it will occur to you that one is coming where he won't be coming home. Yeah, that’s the other side of it, but we’ve got at least 15 months… But… We have turned the in-law suite in the basement into his space. Give him some privacy…

Kind of surprised we don't do that to convicted rapists and pedofiles. Stop the possibilty of repeat offending.

@Horace I seem to recall that you learned that Sonata. Is that right?

This needs to be done very carefully with an eye to compassion and where the error originated.

IT'S ALL IN CAPITAL LETTERS IT MUST BE TRUE.

Words can be tricky.

@mark said in UPS uninterruptable power supply for computers: I like the CyberPower. I have replaced the batteries once. ARe you sure it just doesn't need new batteries? Problem with this one is that I cannot be sure that replacing batteries will fix the problem for good. Having a UPS is all about reliability and the peace of mind that comes with it. If I cannot trust the equipment anymore, it's time to replace it. Thank you all for the referrals to Schneider and Falcon. I will check them out too. Thanks!

So Canadians ARE shipping drugs into the US!

LOL, I love this misconception… "every element of his efforts to expand the authority of the executive branch. The guy is limiting the scope of the Executive Branches. He’s reducing their roles. He’s actually weakening the Executive agencies.

The J6 magats walked, so apparently the answer is yes.

@AndyD said in Overlooked?: I take it that the answer to my question is Zero. How is construction of the Mexican wall coming along? The border is 2,000 miles long. I believe Trump had about 400 miles of fencing replaced and 80 miles of new border wall. Also Mexico didn’t pay a dime. Good campaign promise though, whatever gets him the W.

@LuFins-Dad I vaguely (and I mean, vaguely) remember it on the news back in the day. However there was something a couple weeks back on one my son’s History channel shows that had a segment on it.

@LuFins-Dad said in Keeping the DoD safe from DEI: Sounds like they did a generic search to tag pictures for review, the images will be reviewed and either removed or not. If the Enola Gay is removed, it’s pretty obviously another malicious implementation, again. Scouring the internet, bringing Truth to the American people, one story at a time.

It did not seem to bother King Charles III that Zelenskyi wasn’t wearing a blue business suit, white shirt and matching tie when the two met last Sunday. Like bachophile pointed out in his post last week, it doesn’t appear to bother Trump when the Saudi Prince, MbS, and his entourage arrive at the WH in their bath robes. Who’s to criticise Zelenskyi when Trump himself is just an empty suit?

@89th said in Trump Talk: And I actually like most of his policies! [Bill Maher] New rule! You cannot like his policies if you do not also accept his alternative facts. [/Bill Maher]

I would rather have seen George Step-on-all-of-us hit the bricks.

King George was my favorite character and song. Brilliant. The whole show was a complete original. Lots of great music.
