He had exhausted all diplomatic options and was finally fed up with the other countries blatant disregard for life and human rights. The out of control regime had began indiscriminately using nerve agents, not only on their own people (many of which were fleeing the country), but the surrounding counties in the region, threatening U.S. interests. After several days of great consternation and much debate amongst his advisors and cabinet people he decided to use the nuclear option.  Upon calling the Marine with the football over to his desk, he informed the ...

At first we were going to put some AI images, that we generated on various online generators, on a separate blog. However, after a quick Google search the AI indicated that X.com is a popular platform for sharing those images. So, we figured why fool with another blog, easier just to upload to X. However decided to make a related post here on our main blog. With a few thoughts and examples. Listed in alphabetical order. __ Craiyon.com   A seemingly completely free image generator. Just to mention, since we did try it. It is somewhat slower than some of the others we tried, and the images (although actually quite good in composition), were somewhat blurry. It does seem to allow an unlimited number of image creation without requiring an account. The images of free accounts are published publicly on their site, those of account holders apparently are not. __ DeepAI.org   A good generator, with the many available options, but only allows generation of two hundred free ...

There obviously is none, or if there is, some of the entertainment companies seem to be ignoring them. Disclaimer : Am no expert, and know nothing about safety regulations. – I am surprised that more people are not seriously injured (or killed) due to the sheer stupidity of some of the people working for the K-Pop companies. Who at times seem to be ignoring standard safety procedures, whether required by any legal requirements or not, some things are just common sense. Which obviously many working for and running some of the companies seriously seem to lack. To start, here is a nice capture of a bragging caption notice of how they were following supposed safety measures, during the making of the ITZY - Girls Will Be Girls music video. --- The singer is climbing into a moving vehicle.   – example 1: Lightbox hanging from crane, outdoors, over member of ITZY, on top of vehicle, during the making of the same Girls Will Be Girls music video. Just looking at th...

Do not become paranoid and limit your online pleasure and convenience. Remember that any access to the internet can involve a certain amount of risk to your privacy. That said, here is a few thoughts that we have came up with over the years since we have been using the internet. Do not store anything on your device, that you connect to the internet, that could compromise your privacy (documents, photos, …). If you use your phone to take personal pictures or video (regardless of the content), always transfer them to another device or offline storage, before connecting. ( we think that is even somewhat risky, due to possible caching on some systems -- we suggest using a dedicated camera, rather than your phone ) Never give any personal information to anyone that emails, text messages or contacts you in any way via the internet, regardless of who they may identify themselves as (even if you think it is them). We have been contacted on numerous occasions by persons identifying themselves ...

Well actually Halloween. We finally got around to having the stupid mercury vapor yard light turned off. (been thinking about it for a while, just hadn't got around to it) Didn't need it, a couple properly placed fixtures with LED bulbs works for me. Now we can focus on our nighttime holiday decorations, Fourth of July, Christmas and of course my favorite, Halloween. Have started drawing up plans for a small haunted cemetery in my front yard and scrounging up some old cardboard boxes for fake headstones. While compiling a list of sound effects and spooky song playlist ( which we have added a list of some ideas at the end of this post ). Have one of those boxes that you just hook up speakers and plug a USB thumb drive into and let it play several hours of MP3 files continuously. Now if I can find my old pair of PA speakers. I'm thinking some select K-pop songs might be a nice touch (Dreamcatcher, PIXY, TRI.BE’s WITCH , Sunmi, Pink Fantasy, maybe some PURPLE KISS), Maybe some...

Just more random thoughts, this time about Christianity and the Judeo-Christian God (BTW, what we believe to be the only god). First off, we will answer the common question,  “Does prayer work?” Yes. (that was easy) Q: But how does one pray? A: ( this is what we think ) 1) Be polite, do not demand or insist; remember who you are making a request to, if something is God's will he will do it, if not you probably are wasting your time —— However, do not assume either to be the case, one can not always be certain either way, and it is possible (at least we think) that God may give certain things a second thought, if a person or enough people are requesting it (maybe?). 2) Do not be selfish, what we mean is that it is okay to pray for yourself and things you need, but do not limit prayer to just things about you or your immediate circle of friends and family. Pray for others; people you know, do not know, people you see in public, people on TV, in the news, YouTube, singers, actors, … e...
