# 13, must have been his pet pig on that sandwich. - 35Posted by Dobrien 1 day, 17 hours ago to Midnight memesEver heard of Ellen Degenerous or Robert De Nero or Rosie O’Donnell or Sean Penn or Kathy Griffith or Edward James Olmos. Well so sorry these didn’t please you.
- 36Posted by Dobrien 1 day, 17 hours ago to Midnight memesYes the Ayatollah Khomeini had been in power for 47 years and was likely reelected over and over and over after he installed himself ,I’m sure the friends and family of the 30,000 protester who were slaughtered in February would agree Putin is worse. ‘Putin is a bigger dictator “Well that’s exactly what the Fake news has been telling everyone and so has all the Russia Russia Russia hoaxers. Of course you know Putin was head of the KGB. We all were told that…..except he never was head of the KGB. He was a translator in Germany during the Fall of the USSR for KGB. He is said to hate the NAZI’s . Vladimir Putin's parents endured the Siege of Leningrad, and Putin has stated that his older brother died during that time. His father was heavily wounded by German forces and his mother narrowly survived starvation. He has also given many speeches criticizing western liberals: Russian President Vladimir Putin used the term "satanic" to describe Western leaders and societies during a speech in September 2022.Here are the details of that rhetoric:The Speech: During a Kremlin ceremony on September 30, 2022, to announce the annexation of four Ukrainian regions, Putin launched a severe attack on Western liberalism, calling it "satanic" and a rejection of "traditional" and "religious" values.Context: He described the West's promotion of LGBTQ+ rights and gender policies as "satanic" and argued that Western elites were pushing "outright Satanism" by attempting to impose these values in schools."Traditional Values": Putin and other Russian officials have used this framing to portray Russia as a defender of traditional, Christian values against what they describe as a "demonic" and "degenerate" West.Further Rhetoric: This theme has been adopted by other Russian officials, including former President Dmitry Medvedev, who characterized the war in Ukraine as a "holy war" against "Satan".
- 37Posted by JakeOrilley 1 day, 21 hours ago to The News Is So Good that "Safe Haven" Gold is Plunging?I get no popups either. I use firefox with ad blocker, and also do not use my phone.

These are all great Dobrien - thanks so much for the post. Some are thought provoking and some are just a riot! - 39Posted by mccannon01 1 day, 21 hours ago to The News Is So Good that "Safe Haven" Gold is Plunging?Thanks, FFA, as I did not know the Gulch was Google from the start. In the beginning and for a long while it wasn't obvious. My main entry into the Gulch is via Mac desktop or Mac laptop using Firefox and rarely iPhone using Safari. Same results. The most annoying screen stealing pop up ads are recent. The ads along the side or bottom that don't interfere are not the problem. I have to say some of those are interesting or offer a product I may actually use, so I have clicked on those. Maybe I need a Mac equivalent to something like AdGuard.
- 40The greatest guilt of today is that of people who accept collectivism by moral default; the people who seek protection from the necessity of taking a stand, by refusing to admit to themselves the nature of that which they are accepting; the people who support plans specifically designed to achieve serfdom, but hide behind the empty assertion that they are lovers of freedom, with no concrete meaning attached to the word; the people who believe that the content of ideas need not be examined, that principles need not be defined, and that facts can be eliminated by keeping one's eyes shut. They expect, when they find themselves in a world of bloody ruins and concentration camps, to escape moral responsibility by wailing: "But I didn't mean this!”
― Ayn Rand - 41Yes! Yes! Yes!
Wash those useless for cowardly clinging clods off!
Can't do your share? Get out of our hair! - 42Is there something wrong with me? I don't get a lot of those. Pictures of people I don't recognize? Something about baseball on fire? Apparently I can't know the players without a scorecard.
- 43Posted by Rex_Little 2 days ago to Midnight memesNot to minimize Trump's accomplishments, but I'd say Putin rates as a bigger dictator than any of those Trump has removed.
- 44The ads go away when I log in, if I can log in, since they obscure much of the screen. However, ID hack sites? Really? I don’t care as much about ads, but “Your Apple Account Just-prepaid for an iWatch”? That is ridiculous!
- 45Posted by freedomforall 2 days ago to Project Canard: 3D-Printed A $97 MANPAD Rocket LauncherI suspect the 3d printer is used to create some vital parts without exposing the builder's intentions.
3d printers are not very expensive and are ubiquitous in the marketplace around the world with no special restrictions on their sales.
imo - 46Posted by freedomforall 2 days ago to The News Is So Good that "Safe Haven" Gold is Plunging?Your article makes good sense, Walter. Thanks for the rational explanation. 👍
I also heard that some central banks have had to sell gold in response to needing to pay higher oil prices. That would remove another support from the gold price. - 47Posted by freedomforall 2 days ago to The News Is So Good that "Safe Haven" Gold is Plunging?The Gulch was built with Google tools from the start. I doubt the site has been modified in years and that may affect using your cellphones on the site.
I don't know why you guys are getting popups while on the Gulch site, but I'm not getting any popups at all from the Gulch site. None.
I do not use my phone to visit the Gulch; I use a Win10 pc.
I don't use the browsers from MSFT or Goog and I DO block ads using AdGuard browser extension in addition to the built in ad-blocker of the browser.
The above is just my experience and I'm no expert on cellphone browsing. - 48Posted by mccannon01 2 days ago to The News Is So Good that "Safe Haven" Gold is Plunging?I agree! The site is degrading into a popup mess. I can't even move my pointer anymore without an ad that has to be dismissed to continue. My guess is Google now owns the Gulch and, as usual, has to get into everyone's face. I've been contemplating leaving this Gulch and looking for another. OK, I have to admit monetarily I'm a freeloader here, but hope to make enough interesting or humorous contributions to earn my keep. However, carpet bombing me with useless ads turns the experience into total waste of time.
- 49Why the phuck are their ID hack site links on on this god damn site?!??! WTF! Popping up on my mobile web page.
- 50Posted by j_IR1776wg 2 days, 1 hour ago to Review of "A Serious Chat with Artificial Intelligence" by Walter DonwayTo be picky " 7. But an AI runs on a distributed network of processors. The NVIDIA A100 GPU “can perform 300 trillion operations per second.” 300 trillion is roughly equivalent to the number of stars in three Milky Way galaxies...."
According to an
AI Overview
"The best estimate for the number of stars in the Milky Way galaxy is between 100 billion and 400 billion. While 100 billion is a common, conservative figure, many researchers now favor a range of 200–250 billion, accounting for the high number of faint, low-mass red dwarfs." This latter number comports to the best estimate I recall from a college course in Astronomy.
It raises a concern about AI, namely, was the overstatement of 100000000 human generated error? Or did AI provide the number?
