Thanks @Klaus 👩‍❤️‍👨

It sounds like the economy is conducting an insurrection.

This is treason!

@Friday said in Don't wear vulgar pants.:

She didn't have to take off her pants in front of the crew. She could have gone to a private place to do it. But I call shenanigans on that "mortified" bit; I honestly don't think that really bothered her.

She is somewhat "famous" in Asia, and if you see how she dresses regularly, there is no way she was mortified. LOL

@jon-nyc said in Elon Musk to Buy Country Music:

I don’t know the genre too well but I have heard it’s gotten a bit too much like pop. Putting the joke aside, is that the complaint of the savingcountrymusic people?

I know the genre well.. there has always been a vocal few in the industry who complain if the music changes. According to them, anything that doesn't sound a certain way is not "country music". I have always both understood their point, but completely disagreed with it. Fans tastes change. I know Alan Jackson wa ts everything to sound like George Jones, but damn... George Jones' music changed and evolved too.

They have a point that Beyonce or KISS or I sent your favorite genre specific artist here are likely to not be able to pull off a country tune, and any genre will be hurt by going that far off course, there needs to be room for growth and change. In the end, the listening audience will continue to determine what is and is not country music, not Alan Jackson.

You said it good. Music tastes change, and what I listened and call "country" or "rock" or "jazz" will change. I may (or may not) like the way it changed, but it will change.

I think that musical "taste" is set between the ages of 12-25. What you listen to during that time pretty defines how you define the various types of music.

@Axtremus Cool graphic.

When I was in INdia, there was a lot of envy towards China.

There seemed to be a question: "why are we not china?" (in terms of economy, world influence, etc.)

Oh, yeah. Householder was outed and indicted a year or so ago.

@xenon said in Advancement in hydrogen fuel cells:

What are the main sources of hydrogen fuel? (At the most basic level, I know next to nothing about this).

I've heard it can be produced, but that then will just mirror the current energy infrastructure like electric cars.

I think that most use steam reforming even the small units now becoming more technology friendly. I have an aquaintance who has done work with this company.

Hyradix H2 Generation

I am not surprised and I agree with a lot of the article. I have always said that China's time "in the sun" will be relatively short.

I have a f riend that works for a US tech company. As part of selling in China, they have to take on a Chinese partner. They always sell technology that is at least one generation old as they know the Chinese will steal their technology and start promoting it as their own.

Love this elephant theme, George! Keep 'em coming, please!

@George-K what is the legal foundation for seizing the assets of (supposedly) private citizens?

Convicted drug trafficking.

@George-K WOW! So is there a chance he gets released? Wasn’t there supposed to be evidence of him drugging some of the members of his cult, too? Of course, how reliable is that?

@Horace said in Sometimes the "they" pronoun seems to work.:

She seems like a good person.

I bet she would make a great forensic psychologist.

Have the Dolphins surrendered yet?

looks like an archaic measuring device using that prehistoric passe non metric imperial system to try to give perspective to a an organic specimen from a living thing.

Reminds of my wife's aunt who was a nun in Belgium. She told family she hoped her end would come by being hit by a bus. Ended up, she was killed by being hit by a taxi. The guy in the sky works with what's handy. One can only hope for the swift end to it all.

Ok, now I really don’t care about 5 million chickens getting cooked.

Wow, what a rebel! Silicon Valley used to be all about looking forward, but the maverick is making it about bringing back old things. Visionary!

Elon told me that he was active in this forum a couple of years ago. He didn't tell me the user name, but he told me that he had teh sex with 7 women.

Sounds right.
