Granted, there are people who actually *work* at shopping malls. But these “tours” of the Google offices in LA really don;t seem like tours of work sites. There are not a whole lot of people in evidence, and the vast majority of those seen doing something are shown relaxing, playing, eating, drinking. I’m sure…
Yesterday Project Veritas released footage of a Pfizer employee on a “date” talking about how his company is “mutating” the Covid virus. I’ve seen a lot of people losing their minds over this, seeing it as evidence of the virus being weaponized. But I can honestly see it the other way: If you are in…
Because in present Day, everything has to be All About Me… Several years before I left Utah I was contacted by an aerospace historian/ museum feller about a potential project. It seemed that a big tech company was purchasing an old Hughes Aircraft hangar with the intention of turning it into office space; I…
Up first: U.S. Poised to Provide Abrams Tanks to Ukraine Of note here is that this will, theoretically, spur the Germans to send their Leopard 2 tanks. The Leopard 2’s would likely be more advanced than the M-1s; and while there are more M-1’s in the world, the Leopards are closer to Ukraine and there are…
So Musk bought Twitter and laid off something like half the workforce… and Twitter *promptly* failed to implode. It seems to be functioning just fine, indicating that the bulk of those canned were not vital to the operation of the company. Now Google and Meta and a bunch of other tech companies are going through…
So California, Gun Free State, has it’s second mass shooting in a handfull of days. And… it’s another old Asian guy. 7 Dead, 1 Injured in Half Moon Bay Mass Shooting; Suspect in Custody Authorities identified the suspect as 67-year-old Half Moon Bay resident Chunli Zhao. Also, (apparently) not an Evil Black Rifle: A…
A 1950’s film describing the “Lobber” rocket from Convair. This was a small battlefield cargo delivery system… rations, medical supplies, ammo, that sort of thing. Kind of a neat idea, but obviously it didn’t go into service. The ability to launch 50 pounds of stuff eight miles just wasn’t that spectacular when cargo planes could…
We’re told that people doing impersonations of other cultures or ethnic groups is “offensive.” But I can’t stop laughing at this: https://www.tiktok.com/@jac0b.bann0/video/7190421319492717826?lang=en
So there was a mass shooting in Monterey Park, California, Saturday, killing ten in a predominantly Asian-ethnic area. This *promptly* led to the usual incredibly predictable takes: 1) Booga booga white supremacy 2) Argle bargle we needs more gun control Well… whoopsie: Man found dead after police standoff in Torrance was the Monterey Park shooting…
Every time one of these narcissistic videos comes out from someone “working” at a tech company, there is *vastly* more time spent yapping on about the food they seem to be constantly consuming than the work they seem to take no interest in. Note that even in the second video, the “oops, I’ve been laid…
