A patent pending situation! HA!

Bay0Wulf replies on Dec 31, 2019:

I was an odd kid ... for years I wondered how they “patented” leather ... I never learned the answer, the questioned got pushed aside by more pressing questions like how do women stand the taste of lipstick? So ... finally I got an answer to “patent” leather. It’s funny where you can learn oddball information ...

Why is it bad? My brother plays games with a computer in the cloud. He pays $100 down for a device, then $25 a month. He claims it's great and way better gaming experience than his fast i7 gaming computer. I don't know.

Bay0Wulf replies on Dec 31, 2019:

Well ... yeah ... okay. If all you’re doing is “gaming” or “watching stuff” it’s great!!! Usually gamers have very little personal information or data to speak of that’s of interest to someone who exploits this stuff. I mean, what good does it do to know that “drptree’s brother” has 5 spell casting scrolls, 2 special weapons, 6 bottles of Life Elixor in his favorite warrior’s backpack? On the other hand, knowing that Jane Dough has some $318,426.32 in her IRA with Anytown Bank (and both of them and their passwords are ‘in the cloud’ ) might be kind of interesting. Oh ... you didn’t know your password is “in the Cloud”? How do you think your bank recognizes that you screwed up when you put the wrong one in?

Okay .

I can not express well enough how much I hate this crap. A few months ago I bought a lap top. Sdly I thought a lap top was a lap top and did not do more than look at things like memory, and price. Got it home to find it is a Chromebook. You can not load photos onto the lap top itself they will get ...

Bay0Wulf replies on Dec 31, 2019:

Yes. Unfortunately there are many of these devices and it’s actually difficult for a regular person to sort through the information to realize that all they’re buying is an “internet” device. A friend/client with a Home Healthcare company wanted to “upgrade” her field “computers” and asked me about iPads for her employees ... or something similar ... due to Government Electronic Filing Regulations ... We are actually stuck because the “Electronic Filing” Requirement necessitates use of devices and “Cloud Systems” that FAIL to provide the protections required by HIPAA Privacy Rules ...

Agreed. I have resisted upgrading my computers to any of the new systems as I no longer “own” them. They no longer send the original discs and require internet access to install and on a regular basis. I have been investigating Linux for future upgrades.

Yeah ... it’s the craziest thing I’ve ever heard of ... even people who are completely paranoid about their information ... their data ... happily surrendered it to the “Cloud” because ... then no-one could break into their computers. Hilariously there are TONS of companies that seek to make their data “unbreachable” and yet are completely comfortable with saying; “Oh I back up my stuff regularly to the Cloud”

You don’t like Breitbart? Okay ... go out and verify it for yourself. In fact, regardless of WHO tells you Anything, you SHOULD go out and verify the information ... for YOURSELF.

Then, when I point ... actually quote ... the Provenance and Headline, you go off on an odd tangent about Mexico “publishing” the article. I have no problem with the article having come from FOX. I read it when it was new. I am happy to see ANY news of decreases in Illegal Migration. I simply think that credit should be applied correctly and this article has nothing to do with the previous 4 months ...

@purdyday I had similar rules that I was supposed to obey ... I didn’t much ... mostly because the hockey, football, baseball game kept going until we couldn’t see the ball or puck. By the age of fourteen, I often spent the night out in the woods ... mostly on my own ... my folks weren’t thrilled but ... I wore them down. When in the company of others, especially elders, I was expected to be mannerly, use good etiquette and be respectful ... i obeyed those rules. On the other hand, I began long distance hitch-hiking at 16 ... backpacking too ... sometimes I hitched a couple hundred miles to backpack a few hundred back ... Thankfully, I was male and capable of taking care of myself.

@purdyday I grant you that I’m from a different time period but ... In my life I’ve been chased around by homosexuals (“gay” wasn’t really a “word” yet.) I had no problem with them if, when I told them; “Thanks but no thanks”. They went away and left me alone. I wasn’t “pro” or “con” I figured if they were adults then whatever tripped their trigger was ... not my business particularly. However, there were several times where I had to offer to kick the shit out of them to get them to leave off. Thankfully, I have always been physically fit and obviously strong enough to back up my offer. Transvestites (TVs) were simply considered comical ... an oddity ... However, homosexuals or TVs NEVER tried to pass themselves off as a woman ... well, maybe an occasional TV might for whatever reason but that usually resulted in seriously negative results ... and I doubt there was any “gender confusion” involved in their thought process ... Now, “Trans” (gender) people seem to think they should be able to coerce straights to accept them as reasonable “dating” material ... they seem to think that they should be able to force someone in the court system to accept them for what they “feel” they are ... Dating is generally about Mating ... Marriage is generally about Children ... The concept that someone should feel “offended” by a lack of interest in becoming entangled in a sterile, unfulfilling relationship is ... odd. Is sad ...

@MaskedRiderChris I know a few women who became “emancipated” at 16 in NJ ... I also know more than a few girls/women who were married at 16 &/or before 18 ... some of them worked out quite well, others ... not so much. I’ve known 16 year olds who were fully functional “women” at 16 ... with a level of common sense and maturity of an adult (mostly women though ... not boys) ... and I’ve known 30-somethings who aren’t mentally even in puberty yet. A lot seems to be dependent on their upbringing. Factually, scientifically, 16 is, on average, the “prime age” for women in physical terms of having children, in terms of fertility, in terms of being able to carry to term in bear a child ... that’s what evolution has decreed ... whether it’s best mentally/emotionally is another question and I think it’s dependent on the person’s upbringing.

Wasn't Pakistan carved out for the Muslims in the area, just asking?

Bay0Wulf replies on Dec 18, 2019:

@RCGibb I would disagree ... mostly because the Muslims had been deliberately exterminating Hindus (and others) in that area for some 1200 years in their many “Expansions”. I see “awarding” ANY territory to an out and out invader as a “reward” for heinous behavior. Several writings by Muslims dating back to the 1100’s glowingly depict the slaughter (males) and enslavement (Women) of entire towns ... glowingly depict the mass murder of “Hundreds of Thousands” put to the sword, burned alive and other more extreme methods of execution. Rewarding Muslims / Islam for this is beyond my ability to comprehend.

You assume he knew the age of the person ... and where it might be tenuous, 16 is considered the “Age of Consent” and a woman/girl can become legally “emancipated” from her family at 16. There are too many unanswered aspects in this article and an awful lot of “supposition” being put forward.

The West ... regardless of how much trouble we’ve seen from Islam over the past 1400+ years ... has experienced very little compared to India and Africa. Non Muslim India and Africa have every right to do everything they can to expel and refuse entry of Muslims ... of Islam ... they have several centuries of experience with Islam ... and NONE of it was ever beneficial to the local people, the populations or the government systems that were in place before Muslims “arrived”.

@Miss-Martha Coming to the conclusion that you are being deliberately dense isn’t abusive except in some la la Liberal lunatic fantasy. You’re not much fun to discuss stuff with because you pigeonholed me with your own conclusions as to what and who I am. Which, I consider to be your right and therefore I won’t “report” you as violating your right to have a conflicting opinion. Have a nice day. Do me a favor and block me ...

@Miss-Martha Oh yeah ...

I thought WE were the “Resistors” ... the “Basket Full of Deplorables” ... the ones that simply won’t go along with their brainwashed, mind numbing rhetoric.

Well, I was writing a very long and detailed answer and the page “refreshed” and it all went away. So, #3. I do, in fact, have many friends who I refer to by their Ethnicity or Race when establishing their probable level of knowledge of a topic or, at least their likely interest in it. In the late 70s and early 80s I lived in the Caribbean and developed many good relationships with the Local Blacks as well as with a strident, almost militant collection of Rastafari. We engaged in several conversations/arguments about what was happening in Africa which necessitated a great deal of open minded study on the subject. My White Friends ... my Chinese (mostly escaped from Red China) Friends ... my Spanish/Hispanic/Latino Friends were relatively uninterested. I mention my “Black Friends” so that people understand that I am speaking of a group of people who are likely to have some knowledge or at least interest in the topic ... I don’t want people to think I was discussing this with a bunch of White Guys over a couple beers ...) #2. In the mid 1970’s when I began to look at the problems in Africa, Rhodesia was Rhodesia. I have found over the years that there is so little interest in Africa in general and Rhodesia/Zimbabwe specifically that, in order to get the best response it is better to use both names. Few people I know (white or black) could point it out on a map ... especially before South Africa became an issue and personally, I think the only reason many of them can point out South Africa is the name is a pretty big clue. 1. Mugabe and ZANU-PF ... its really hard, and indicative of a lack of honest thought, to lay all the problems at their feet. Yes, they were responsible for a lot of what occurred. The Brits (British Establishment) were responsible for many of the outlooks and attitudes of the local populace before the handing over. The various militia ... militant factions ... were responsible for much of what has happened. Mugabe and the ZANU-PF were essentially “the Government” so I suppose it’s natural to blame them. The White Farmers began to flee the country almost from the beginning of the hand over as they began to experience ever more racially driven hostility, anger and hatred from the various factions. However, the Government legitimized the situation when they passed laws confiscating the lands and expelling more than half of the White Farmers in the early 2000’s ... Laws specifically aimed at “White” Farmers (the Law was not about “farmers” of whatever race). While these farms most usually found their way into the hands of Government Stooges and Cronies, the general populace was of the mind that this action was “good and just”. You can blame Mugabe and there is some good reason for doing so but it is ...

@MarieBabik Sorry, that’s stating the completely obvious. On the other hand, if you have your hand up someone’s butt, you can probably make them say whatever you want. Then there is the question of; “Who controls the Puppeteer?”. In this particular application, there is the question of; “who controls the message of a religion?”

"Reality?" Try doing some actual researdh into the history of Southern Africa, pre and post colonial, it might take a bit of effort but at least you might be able to offer an informed opinion rather than spouting some half baked response to a BBC trope.

Bay0Wulf replies on Nov 30, 2019:

Actually I know a quite a lot about South Africa and it’s “known” history. As to it’s history “pre-colonial”, there's not a whole lot of actual fact to be known although there is a lot that was carried in oral tradition. Obviously there’s much more history available “post colonial” though that tends to be records of the Europeans. There are many similarities to the arrival and results of the Europeans’ arrival on the east coast of the Americas. However, that said, little of that information has any bearing on the situation that exists today. The population growth, density and lifestyle patterns bear almost no relation to that time period. The expectations of the population similarly bear almost no relation to that time period as well. Do you mean to infer that the Europeans did horrible things? They did ... nothing that wasn’t typical for the time ... but horrible when seen through the eyes of someone of today. The “indigenous” people similarly did horrible things ... mostly to themselves. It is due to the European “culture” ... way of doing business ... way of farming specifically ... that allowed the land to achieve a much greater “carrying capacity”. As in ALL similar situations, the population (primarily indigenous) grew to meet that increased carrying capacity. The world that was ... the lifestyle that was ... is past. It is extremely doubtful it shall ever return unless, of course, South Africa’s population falls back to the levels the land could sustain ... carry ... in pre-colonial times. I don’t think that South Africa (and I don’t mean simply that country) is doomed to fail ... that it cannot support its population ... but, in order to do so, they are going to have to apply themselves to maintaining the agricultural system that was established by Europeans. So far, indigenous “Africans” have shown little desire and less aptitude in doing so. This is unfortunate. In a land ... literally capable of “milk and honey” ... starvation and deprivation is due to extract a horrendous toll where it is so totally unnecessary.

@MarieBabik Yeah ... I notice you all invented, and continue to produce some of the best, hockey players in the World. Hockey is total mayhem ... or was until recently ... even more than football. I know, I played hockey as a goalie. It is a gathering of total lunatics worse than any Black Friday crowd but we simply agree to some sort of rules and leave civilians and bystanders out of the mayhem. Obviously, you feel yourself to be a “better adjusted ... or, milder” people and ... you might be right. Canadians remained dependent on England &/or France all their existence. They never rose and threw the yoke of empire from their shoulders. In fact, to this day, you owe fealty to Queen Elizabeth II. Your country never had the nerve, desire or drive to “free” yourselves. Contrast that with the USA, as a Nation, the only crap we have to deal with is our own. Then again, when any country, anywhere in the world, needs physical help, it seems that they call upon the Government and Citizens of the USA first. I’m proud of My Nation, the People as a Whole, and, once in a very great while, Our Government.

Bay0Wulf replies on Nov 29, 2019:

I’m not a bleeding heart about things. I’m much too pragmatic for that. I feel badly for the general populations of these people as they likely had little input or profit but bear the brunt of the outcome. I “feel” badly ... not that I’ll lose any sleep ... I recognize that reality is not overly interested in “feelings” either.

Bay0Wulf replies on Nov 29, 2019:

@MarieBabik Let’s go back to “lots fewer people”... The tendency to engage in such lunacy is found in a small percentage in every people. The overwhelming majority see that lunacy and roll their eyes and edge away. Usually the “lunatic” finds no-one to act as a foil and the issue either never develops or simply fades away. (Fewer People ... I’m positive you have them too since I’ve met several) In the USA, you have the combination of it being almost regarded as some joke, an invitation to go see/experience a weird informal bloodsport and a higher density of people ... lunatics ... (More People). The percentage of lunatics in Canada and the USA I am pretty sure is about even. In the USA the incidence of their running into each other is much more likely. Of course, in the USA there are those who promote these problems for motives &/or profits of their own.

I think that depends on the student. Unfortunately there are all too many incidences of wooden heads under instruction. One would think that as dire the results tend to be, acceptance of a lesson would be rather quick and well taken. Histories stretching back to every peoples’ and cultures’ earliest days seem to prove that thought wrong.

Ohhhh ... c’mon ... First, you have lots fewer people and, until recently, lots more pot. Second, isn’t the concept of Black Friday (the day after Thanksgiving) the cultural appropriation of TWO specifically US “traditions”?
