This is as dark as news gets to me. Donald Trump says US has attacked three Iranian nuclear sites and ‘totally obliterated’ them | The Guardian

The US federal government is expected to shut down in one month (March 14) unless Congress approves a funding bill. The country is burning and ready to fully explode. There are few options for resistance. This is the best one I have seen. Democratic senators, do it and get this country back on...

Aww, I loved his films so much. https://deadline.com/2025/01/david-lynch-dead-twin-peaks-blue-velvet-elephant-man-1236258625/

The government funding bill has passed in the House 366 - 34. Quite a margin! It would seem house members are no longer willing to do absolutely anything Trump wants. In the meantime, the Senate needs to vote on it. At least one news source say it is expected to pass there too. The Washington...

How time flies!

Bethesda's next game Starfield is coming out September 6. If you are in the dark about this, Bethesda made Skyrim and Fallout. It is their first new platform in over 20 years. The game is huge, involving a 1000 stars and planets. They released a 45 minute video about it not too long ago...

I'd love to hear your thoughts. These came to mind for me. Being There Peter Sellers stars. He is Chance the Gardener later known as Chauncy Gardener. He lives in a beautiful house with gardens in a not so beautiful part of New York City. The owner has died and Chance has to travel on his own...

It is really smoky here near Philadelphia. We are going to continue to get hammered for days it seems. There is a huge wind circle that is blowing counter clockwise and not moving much. This picture is from firesmoke.ca . There is a play button on the site in the bottom left to see the forecast...

If Twitter were to fail in a major way, what will replace it? The internet finds a way and rather quickly sometimes as myspace and digg found out. Twitter is so entrenched it is difficult to see what that might be. Mastodon is one possibility. Bluesky is another possibility that seems to be...

I never know where to put things like this so here is a new thread. https://www.thesmokinggun.com/documents/stupid/meat-beat-plea-deal-642815?fbclid=IwAR2eRhPzSkxozB2EdeoUx8_8hO__Ty0J1ZvjWGV0Rk6NYpjZc19QdLGYoKI&utm_source=fark&utm_medium=website&utm_content=link&ICID=ref_fark

If you're unfamiliar with the expression it means a song with a double meaning, usually pretty obviously they are talking about something else. Here are a couple of my favorites. Obviously Chef from Southpark is not talking about cooking, the least of the reasons being there is no salt in his...

It's been an annoyance for me with VVO, whenever my cursor floats over a thread title it shows a big alt text message preview. I finally looked into getting rid of that. If you are using ublock origin with chrome on a pc, right click on the ublock origin icon, choose options, my filters and put...

Every tweet just says Loading tweet... Then the white box gets taller and the Loading tweet... gets pushed down a few lines and nothing else happens. This is with Chrome on a Windows PC. I thought maybe it was due to some extension I have installed but that doesn't seem to be the case, since...

Sometimes I don't want to start a new thread to ask some computer question, so I'm making this one for when someone has any sort of computer questions such as what pc or graphics card to get, how to get linux running under windows or whatever might come to mind. In my case today, I am looking...

I loved her and the Detroit Cobras. We were going to see them here in Portland last fall but they cancelled due to covid. So sad. There is no mention of how she died. She was only around 50. Edited to replace link for better ones that have appeared since I posted...
