The number of arsehole men is too damn high. Whenever I see or hear these stories my blood boils.

Trump playing ‘the wisdom and experience angle’ seems like a great strategy. I wish he goes for it!

You love what you love. If others don’t, that’s cool. I quite like some songs by Nickelback, but they aren’t quite my favourite. I find myself listening to Creed from time to time and I think they are great.
As for AB, the best band ever as far as I’m concerned. There is not a single AB album I haven’t played again and again. I’ve seen them live ten times or so, and will go see them every time I get the opportunity. And Myles could sing the phonebook and I’d still love it.
Remember when email was useful? I remember when it was magical!
Time for a story from the ancient times. I had this idea and asked my professor for advice. He said he knew a person on the other side of the world who would know all about it. “This is his ‘email’ address.”
I had never heard about ‘email’ so I needed to learn what it was and how to send one. I wrote my message and off it went. The very next morning I had a reply. One of the best experts on a topic I was keen about had shared their thoughts from the other side of the world, just like that.
In that time, a long time ago as you’ll appreciate, that interaction was magical.
In an instant I understood the power of the Usenet. A while later and with a couple of additional protocols they started calling that the Internet.
Toot-toot, moog got the boot!
I root for the moog to get the boot.
How about the whole Cabinet?
A number of major forces (e.g longer lifespan and that Russian twat waging war) will continue to increase pressure on public finances like an ever tightening screw. Pretending that economic growth will solve the problem is wishful thinking, to put it mildly. Either one substantially cuts some publics service or increases taxes to a whole new level. Quite possibly both at the same time.
I’m deeply disappointed that the UK political parties wishing to have power seem only able to obfuscate things. “Let me be very clear, yadi-yadi-ya” - bullshit! It is tiring to hear only media optimised, content void word salad.
I’ve been a sceptical old git for quite some time, but perhaps I’ve still held a glimmer of optimism somewhere deep down. This election campaign has only pushed me deeper into cynicism.
I made couple of bass tramps tuned to the room’s main resonant frequencies, which I measured. I followed instructions from the book.
I added sound absorber panels to the walls and ceiling to kill immediate reflections from the main speakers plus a sprinkling of additional panels to kill reflections and also act as decoration. I also needed to move one radiator because it was in the worst possible location for my setup.
The room got thick curtains to improve absorption, and they also darken the room as it is dual use music listening and home cinema room. A few defraction elements went into the ceiling for a good measure. The ceiling is made of custom panels that I made myself from wood and fabric to allow sound energy through to the various acoustic elements behind them.
I also spent a fair amount of time with subwoofer placement, but in the end it became a bit of a compromise between sound and placement of furniture. Nothing a bit of signal processing can’t deal with, mind.
The rivers have already been turned into streams of shit, so all we need is a bit of pipework and we have arrived at the Tory dream, known as nightmare for the rest of us.
Is there a bigger societal waste day-in-day-out than people sitting in traffic jams? Any measure that reduces car journeys taken is a good measure in my books.
