knowing the m.o. of the g.o.p. - anytime jim jordan tries to 'kill the messenger' - in this case a reverend - YOU KNOW the story has legs!

We sent greeting cards, prayed and had dinner at times.
Occasionally we got together for a few days out west.


WOW that is influencing peddling at the highest level.

Good find at government wasting tax dollars on nothing .

Fairlight CMI - the first digital sampler and sequencer

newtboy says...

My dad had a Prophet 2000 shortly before they were available to the public in 85, cost about $2k I think…it was the same technology but for consumers.
Recording samples was a single button push, every characteristic of any sound was infinitely mailable from reverb and attack and fade, sustain, tone, speed, looping, layering, etc. Not a professional unit like this one, lower fidelity, but affordable (by comparison) and comparable in features except the display. It also did MIDI. I have many memories of shoeboxes full of 3.5” “floppies” and way more dials than I knew how to use.

Sweeping Trash at Every Minute For Twelve Hours

BSR says...

The hands on the clock start out at 10:10 the same position as you would see new clocks set at.

--------------------------------------------

Why are all watches set to 10 10?

Image result for time on new clocks

The most common reason is obviously the same as why 10:10 is the norm—aesthetics. Sometimes watch dials feature the brand name at positions other than 12 o'clock, and sometimes there could be indicators or displays that might actually get partially hidden with hands at 10:10.


Congress requires new tech to detect and stop drunk drivers

dedstick jokingly says...

I agree, but lets take this to it's inevitable use: car senses illegality, locks doors, parks car and dials 911 to make sure you get the help you need from your local law enforcement friends. All in the name of group safety of course.

Mom catches book falling on child using reflection from TV

cloudballoon says...

Also, how often a book slotted like what we see in this video would fall out like so?

If this is not fake, if I'm her I wouldn't care about checking the kids and dial 555-2368 posthaste.

TheFreak said:

When trying to determine if a video like this is real, I always ask myself, "why is the camera there and recording at that moment?"

A camera constantly recording your living room while your family is there? The only answer that's not creepy as fuck is, fake video.

Wendy Carlos demonstrates her Moog Synthesizer in 1970

newtboy says...

My Pops had a prophet 2000 the mid 80's. The first home digital sampling synth. It had all these options and more to apply to either the basic hum or to any sample. It had reverb, attack, sustain, decay, multiple preset wave forms, speed (of the sample), pitch and tone, and probably 1/2 dozen more I can't recall, all in a keyboard size unit, not a full pipe organ size. The samples came or could be recorded on 3 1/2" floppies, and you could store a huge number of presets to modify them as you wished at the push of one button, not a complete retuning with multiple dials. I had fun remixing James Brown and Prince, but never learned to play well.
Amazing the advancements they made in just 15 years.

That's some dope ass bass playing (super funky)

wtfcaniuse says...

Very cool. I was impressed with tweaking the dial between slaps. Playing slap on a RH bass left handed would be extra difficult because there will always be a delay when moving the wrist to pluck above the slap.

Would be cool to see slo-mo footage of his technique.

I played it on my king ant's huge and heavy office IBM P70 portable computer that was a 386 10 Mhz PC. It had a monochrome monitor, internal Hayes 2400 dial-up modem, and no sound card. It was so choppy, but still worth it.

I remember it taking like 3 hours to download. Worth every minute.

Capitalism Didn’t Make the iPhone, You iMbecile

newtboy says...

In reality, it wasn't spare time tinkering at all, it was serious academics doing full time paid research funded by the government. ARPANET, while funded by the defense department, was designed by and connected college researchers, the first transmissions were between UCLA and Stanford in 69, not the military. This was the first networking, the infant internet.
The military system in the 60's was a point to point tonal encryption system that ran on proprietary bell telephone systems with dedicated direct phone lines until the FCC forced Bell to give up it's capitalistic monopoly in 68, allowing for advancements in both the public and eventually private sector that led to the infant internet instead of just individual "computers" (and I use the term lightly here) directly communicating. Remember, back then, almost into the 90's, you needed to know the direct phone number of the other computer to connect (think "War Games"), there was no publicly accessible network.
The first retail internet transaction wasn't until 94.

Also imo, it was weird individuals tinkering in their spare time that made home computing anything more than very expensive word processors/calculators. We've had PCs since the 70's in my home, I remember what they could do then....I'm one of those weird individuals.

Long and short, your 5 different capitalistic ways ALL stem from a purely socialist base and a socialist denial of private for profit monopolies, and most if not all of them were developed and implemented using at least some public funding. Without that, we would still be using bell telephone phone modems to direct dial each other. Without public/private cooperation, neither sector could advance like they have together.
Imo, it's not an either/or situation, it's both.

Counting Trump's False Claims Using Gumballs

bobknight33 says...

Newt,

CNN mainly pushes 1/2 truths and anti Trump leaning reporting day in day out.

Biggest liar and fraud of our time was Obama not Trump. and MSM is riding along on their side.

Tim Cook Apple Big dial who cares its like call you newtbabe by accident. Who cares but liberals suck it up and think the worst. Your no better that all the rest.

Muller report will clearly take that smug ass smile of Adam Schiff and the rest of the left. Sad thing is that Adam Schiff knows and have always known there is ZERO collusion but still pushes BS lies.

I believe there will be a big turn of events and Trump will win 2020 by a historic landslide.

newtboy said:

Bob.
Lie about Trump all you want, don't lie about me....you know full well that is a lie.
I've never once tuned my tv to CNN, as I've told you a dozen times.
I use multiple sources cross referenced to determine what I think is fact, CNN often provides decent short clips on youtube that illustrate the point succinctly and or clearly but are not my "trusted news source" as you well know....
....but you implicitly trust the biggest liar and fraud of our time without a critical thought. I bet you heard Trump say "Tim Cook Apple", or whatever he's claiming he said today, didn't you?
Don't dare try to impeach my information gathering and filtering skills when you are....well...you.

And the numbers aren't from CNN, only the visual depiction of the independently verified fact check numbers. *facepalm
