@PNS@Dan_Ramos did anyone bother to remind Disney that they own Pixar? And open AI by definition is open source so why don't they just let Pixar front their AI generated crap fest instead? Would have saved them a billion
@PNS Indian spices are all coated with lead citrate to make the colors pop so they appear to be fresh. I wouldn't trust any of them. This became a big issue when import authorities discovered this a couple months back
@PNS the excessively pointy chin will only be more fun as she ages into her proper old crone witch form.
500 guys...
"let's see what new disease you'll fetch .... The spoiled one who wins So shocking, where's your sense? Don't you know I hate you, though? Unsatisfied, you little girl .... I will never be diseased [Chorus] Tying yourself to me Stitch up my emptiness 'Cause you're the death of me So precious, loving the thrill " -- Stitches by Orgy circa 2000. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FIeZo9RD53Q
@ZeroSum06 Adam found a new cult of sycophants to worship him. Those small time bible thumpers that used to be on AM radio & handed out sermons on cassette tapes. They likely see him as an answered prayer come to provide them with a new venue format for their audio preaching. His podcast 2.0 vision is to weld crypto micropayments into podcast RSS feeds and apps so listeners can donate directly to producers, in this case preachers taking zero overhead donations directly from your player.
@PNS the only good thing about dead artists, you can finally catch up with all of their work. Pity Vangelis won't make any new ones. I forgot that a few weeks ago I meant to go listen to Albedo 0.39 and maybe To The Unknown Man albums again. Been a long time. I still think there's one or two of his collaborations with Jon Anderson of YES discs that I haven't heard. Oh & Aphrodite's Child album 666 about revelations was really mostly his early work. I got a double CD of that put away somewhere.
@PNS adopting children that look nothing like their adopted parents leads to a higher degree of persistent adolescent alienation feelings. Leading the child to seek out more dangerous group forms of belonging and acceptance like cults.
Even when a parent works hard to overcome the stigma of adoption, Hollywood's notorious divorce rate where 10 years is considered a long marriage, shatters the stability required for stable upbringing.
@ZeroSum06 I was wondering if Lords of Acid had changed lead female singers over the years. It's always been a Praga Khan project but I caught a newer video a few years back & wondered how Jade4U still looked so young. Carla from Butcher Babies is the newest singer.
Members: Praga Khan Olivier Adams Carla Harvey
Past members: Ludo Camberlin Ruth McArdle Deborah Ostrega Nikkie Van Lierop (Jade 4U) DJ Mea Erhan Kurkun Marieke Bresseleers
@inscius just to hold it, Denmark pays a lot for Greenland every year. China will loan them money for it secured by mineral rights. Then when they default, China will start mining Greenland for its Rare Earth minerals. That will let them set up their own bases there and get a foothold in the Arctic that breaks the security line from Greenland to Iceland to the UK. They'd like to get in on Arctic offshore oil drilling as well
@dictatordave@PNS he doesn't need to cut the pipe back, this is obviously a stopgap matter because he can't get to the main valve I guess. He's decommissioned that bath tub for now. Said something about working on a furnace today so I bet his next project will be shutting off the main, getting a torch, & either replacing that elbow or resoldering it because it broke loose due to water hammer action.
@magicalthinking@Dan_Ramos I think I already posted a report about Greenland that explains its significance to geopolitics and that China wants to offer them loans so they can default and then China can pick up the resources dirt cheap as Surety against the loans. It turns out everything for running Greenland for those 58,000 is costing Denmark 680 million a year. They'd be better off with us anyway.
@PNS that I'm really a 6 ft tall lesbian with no impulse control because of all these tattoos I'm showing off and not a tranny dude in disguise. Hey lady do you have a t-shirt? Then put it on.
@phoneboy@eriner@viking@spencer@darrenoneill@thatlarryshow@PNS@ryno you buy vinyl because you like the dirty crinkly sound it makes. Oh recently I saw on a deal site a discount for a knock-off of a Discwasher (tm) brush & liquid set for $12. Trust me these newer turntables have really shitty audio response. Terribly cheap styluses tracking too heavily. They jumped back to 1960 level disposable portable buy it again quality era vs the pinnacle of late 70s early 80s of turntable tech.
