Just be thankful you were not carrying any of your pet dogs. Dr. Emily Pieraccci from the CDC just put into effect new regulations concerning bringing dogs into the United States that are so restrictive, that 8 airlines have suddenly refused to carry dogs and have cancelled flights for people trying to come home from Europe. This is causing confusion and total disarray for an issue that has only had 4 cases of Rabies Transmission in the last 14 years.
While that may be true, the other side of the coin is lots of people like me live part time in Mexico and a lot of us end up adopting a stray dog. We take it to our vets and get them spayed, vaxxed, and treated and would like to be able to return to the US with our loved pets. I have spent countless hours on the internet, put a microchip in a dog that would otherwise not want or need it, and am still getting run around by a bunch of petty beauracrats who do not know what the heck is going on. And I thought Covid was fun.
My families have literally had dozens of assorted pets.
Even a pet crow named Charlie (named after my long gone Grandfather).
2 baby Raccoons. (made it only past their second summer when "cute" wore out).
I read recently that pet ownership in the USA is up 50% past ten years.
That explains all the retail giants and online total coverage for Pet goodies etc.
I watch several dogs for friends and neighbors during winter months when they leave sometimes for weeks to catch the warm sun. I have had my daughters 3 year old "MONTY BOI" almost as much at my home as hers. Just worked out that way.
When he is not here, I can admit I miss my favorite Pal.
Hold on, the phone just rang....sure...... I can watch him here! Hahaha
Doesn't the recent Chevron ruling have bearing on the CDC's overreach on this topic? It should, especially in light of the fact that we are now more or less required to vaccinate our pets as much as our kids. I recently was convinced to Vax my dog for leptospirosis. I've had dogs my whole life and all of a sudden this is so dangerous. The AVMA is as bad as the AMA and CDC in my opinion.
Someone must craft a good lawsuit. If anything screams “Exercise the Chevron Deference Strike Down,” this egregious abuse of regulatory power most certainly does.
Push those vaxxes, baby, into every arm, every leg, every paw, every wing, every tail, every leaf…
Why isn't DEI inclusive of pets and for that matter pet owners? Do I sense an anti-inclusion, anti-diversity and let's not forget the M/FOAW (Mother/Father (non-binary, whatever!) of all Woke), anti-Equity? Where's the unelected Larry to make a complaint to?
What if, just a what if, somebody screwed up Thursday and the Microsoft/ClowdStrike FUBAR inadvertently occurred 3 ½ months early and was suppose to happen 1st week November? Was it AZ that said the outage affected their voting machines? What I don’t like is that paper is gone away, records are digital and voting machines are closed system, privately held and there’s been no outside access (not 100% sure of #3). If we’re gonna be using these devices they need to be open source, outside audit AND no internet connection within months of use.
OK, that was rant #1: I’m still wondering if surviving the move to a highly technological civilization is the step that must be surmounted to escape the confines of one’s own solar system - it could be that our tech may be our own worse enemy; moving too fast, trusting too much, relying excessively…
Anyone who knows me knows that tech has been part of my life since high school - lost track of the number of computers in my house (not all in use) and revel how I can hold something with more "power" than the first system I build from scratch in the palm of my hand, AND IT RUNS ON BATTERIES! But, as I pressed my love of tech and what we can do on my son, I also came to realize that we are inherently analog critters. In the span of 2, maybe 3, generations we have reorganized our world around the flow of electrons flipping teensy tiny switches from 1 -> 0 and back again; it took us 2, 3 millennia to harness the wheel (chariot, stagecoach, stern paddle wheel steamer, locomotive, and my fav jaguar e-type), 3 gens to go from kitty hawk to the blackbird and we’re still improving, 1 gen from WWII to put MEN on the moon - but these were all analog techs and didn’t require reorganizing society from the top down/bottom up while the middle spreads far and wide (geez, sounds like me in middle age); education use to be hands on beginning with actual writing as a discipline; and I’m not sure how I feel about Avatars and Anonymity (both of which I’ve used extensively).
What I’m getting at is I think we’re moving too fast - notice I didn’t bring AI into the mix: what happens if/when we integrate AI, benevolently or nefariously, into our elections?
I’m done; now if you’ll excuse me I need to grab my pearl inlaid abacus to reconcile my weekly accounting and ink up my Gutenberg printer to post another rant on WordPress. Ah, fun times.
Maybe this was a practice run or a warning? Also maybe you will end up inking up your Gutenberg printer and post (on walls Like Martin Luther) in wood block type.
Door, 95 hand written theses nailed to the Brandenburg chapel DOOR
{ 🤔 gimme a minute to fact check myself. MAILED to Archbishop of Brandenburg, attached/posted (I say nailed) to the door of All Saints’ Church in Wittenberg}.
But yeah, what if we dropped wood block printed leaflets from drones?
If you mean printing the leaflets onto wood blocks and dropping from them from drones? I am all for it! Remember the TV show WKRP in Cincinnati when they dropped turkeys from a helicopter for Thanksgiving - Les Nessman reporting on the chaos. Boss, Arthur Carlson comes in saying "I swear I thought turkeys could fly!"
Crowdstrike apparently used their customers to test their software for flaws. Not really different from pharma companies using the public to test their vaccines for safety and effectiveness.
Software companies used to test their software with beta users- a select group of representative customers who agreed to road-test the SW before it was released more broadly. I don't know what their current practices are, but based on the number of things that seem to go wrong after a forced "Windows Update", I don't think they do it anymore, and if they do, it's not as rigorous.
Pharma had a plausible excuse for rushing things- people were dying by the millions. At least, that's what our government was telling us. Looking back, that was never really true. The all-cause mortality data show that. Most people still don't want to believe they were tricked like that. But slowly, awareness is seeping through.
Astute observation, Evil Incarnate. I came to the comments to make a similar comparison:
A worldwide rollout of an insufficiently tested vaccine that does more damage and death (not the "Blue Screen Of Death" but the "Code Blue Scream of Death") than the viral infection that it's supposed to protect against.
Agree ! When Microsoft went to Windows 10, they kept sending messages to me that my computer was ready for the transition. It was not and they knew that a certain percent of computers would crash when they went to Windows 10 and mine was one of them.! it’s all about benefit. I sued them and won!
If you enjoy seeing the misery of others like I do - when they deserve it -take a look at this interview of George Kurtz, CEO of Crowdstrike, when he's asked how a single software error could cause computers around the world to shut down. He's choked up so bad he has to take a drink of water.
You don't have to be a diversity hire to write a null pointer dereference in a C/C++ program. Even the best of us do it.
This event reminds me of the crash of the AT&T phone system on January 15, 1990, also caused by a bug in a C program, though not the same kind of bug. You can't blame that one on DEI. The frightening truth is that some systems we depend on are remarkably fragile ín certain ways.
Anyway, the real problem here, I believe as a cybersecurity expert, is the widespread use of the Microsoft Windows operating system for infrastructure purposes. It's a desktop OS that was not designed for use in servers; keeping it secure requires frequent patching, and every patch is an opportunity for something to go wrong. Linux would be a better choice for many purposes.
I agree that Microsoft never really caught up with Unix (Linux) or any other OS (are there any others?) specifically built for "mainframe" - or corporate - uses. Who got these companies to go with Microsoft? A LOT of businesses use Linux in their servers, etc.
It's not just Microsoft cloud servers that were affected, when I see the reported blue screens at airports these are windows machines designed for end user interaction, many running in a type of locked down "kiosk" mode. I use windows every day and were not affected by this. I think this is purely on CrowdStrike (and whoever chose to use CrowdStrike) and is not a Microsoft problem. See my separate comment on that topic.
What’s that old saying,? Oh ya the shit always runs downhill. Doesn’t it seem as the communists have taken their slow long march through the institutions the enshitification has leeched, by government control of the institutions, into the businesses. The enshitification of government is degraded by the enshitification of the new flawed character of government officials and eventually this bleeds down through the business where business bends to government desires. I may have this wrong but socialism/communism always seems to result into enshitification of service generally and drastically. Communism has resulted into the enshitification of America and in turn the enshitification of the world.
Todays issues have surely led to your outpouring of competence! For this slow reader an extended focus so as not to miss a morsel.
In re Crowdstrike. Read an article on their particulars yesterday that confirmed and expanded on the Democratic investments and associations you provided here. l have to note that I am astounded that so many major operations rely on anything Microsoft and its affiliates. My experiences and observations re those of others would immediately lead me to other options for critical applications. The article I read related substantial relations between Crowdstrike and the WEF.
As for the march and impact of WEF/UN inspired DEI and related cures, I've watched them and their effects since the 60ties. First I've always been a dedicated advocate of knowlegable, competent staffing
Meritocracy - absolutely. I'm in full agreement with selecting the best qualified who will invest in timely quality dedicated performance. I seem to recall DJTs touching on that Thursday.
Returning to goals to achieve excellent outcomes to me is vital.
In the meantime will be devoting my hopes and prayers that you folks, DJT, RFk Jr and all of your compadres will be able to effectively weather the storms of todays morass.
Safe and tolerable travels. Happy landings and return to your bit of heaven. So happy you have it!
Thank you for the voice over. During the mid seventies and early eighties my ex husband worked for Union Pacific Railroad. He would come home complaining that the engineers would have to get off the train to move the switch because the woman they had hired was not strong enough to throw the switch. They had hired her because they had a quota of woman to hire to comply with the law. I kept thinking how wrong this was. She should not have gotten the job if she couldn’t perform the job.The engineers were not happy to have to do their work plus the woman’s.
My husband is an attorney as I have said before. He had to score high enough on the LSAT to go to law school and pass the Bar exam to practice law.
I think about the practicing drs that are not competent to do surgery or perform their other duties. This wokeness is ruining the world.
I have also seen DEI reduce the quality level and productivity in a large software company. I've worked as a software engineer for 30 years and of the top 10 software engineers I've ever worked with that I would pick for a startup company guess how many of them are women? I would love to be able say I found the most amazing female programmers out there, we only have to give them a chance, and all that, but honestly, I cannot say that, the top 10 I've ever worked with are all male, and I would say the top 100 probably are too. I don't know why it is, but to pretend this isn't true and set false quotas that ignore this fact will only destroy the quality and productivity of our software companies. Take a look at a group photo at OpenAI. It is hilariously male heavy.
Doesn’t Crowdstrike do lab testing to make sure this doesn’t happen? All that can be automated. Then they didn’t do staged roll out to minimize possible SNAFU. Crowd Strike violated every IT Good Practice. I read up on them; WEF Partner!
These aspects of it make me think this was not a "coder error" but done on purpose by someone who got inside the company to " mess with the system" for some reason.
A useful, useless pawn for the un democratic democrats. Watching him look completely gobsmacked as they turn on him to “ save democracy “ is sickening. The absolute last thing his handlers want is a leader elected by fair election.
Biden was a useful puppet. Now that he is no longer useful, in other words, useless, they want to get rid of him. Isn’t there a lesson here? It’s how totalitarians operate. Eventually they destroy those who are no longer useful.
Globalism is code for Imperialism. Unlike the conquest and colonization of people’s through Armadas and figures like Cortez, they are using the virtual domains to do it, liberating themselves from the limitations of geography and national sovereignty, the henchmen and women are multinational so functioning more like an Imperialist cartel.
The “Great Reset” is accelerating. Because too many on our side still think we can fix this by long-term RINO replacement. The problem is, as we saw this past week, you learn nothing about where politicians stand on the big stuff in political campaigns. They avoid it like a plague to keep from losing votes. E.g., Putin has said he'd rather have Biden over Trump since he's predictable.
I think Putin is a wise man in that respect: J.D. Vance has said,
" there’s going to have to be some American security assistance [to Ukraine] over the long term. "
How could Putin trust that to be anything substantially different from putting Ukraine into NATO? He knows how deceitful our government is. Not getting a warm fuzzy from Trump and Vance.
I sent my brother my own write up about Vance the day Trump announced his VP. I also posted on Dr. Malone's cross-post from The Truth About Cancer this morning as a response to a commenter who think this VP pick proves Trump is not after the deep state.
There was no way that Trump was not going to be saddled with an infiltrator, that would have been suicide for the globalist. I've been downcast ever since. I was afraid this would happen and it did.
YOU know, Shelly, exactly who and what the so-called "deep-state" is - and that it has embedded its (globalist) members within the U.S. federal apparatus no matter Democrat or Republican - as for instance the infestation of BOTH terms of President Ronald Reagan by the members of (that) "NGO".
Did you see and listen to the acceptance speech of Vance?
Yeah, the Bush family apple IS wormy - took me some time to wise up to that; but after his Pence mistake do you really think Trump would choose Vance unless he was absolutely, thoroughly vetted?
Some of you may remember Microsoft Vista windows edition, released between XP and Windows 7. It was so buggy they never did fix it and simply dropped it as soon as Win 7 was ready. Why was Vista so buggy? Well it seems Microsoft had its "A" team working on server software so the put their "B" team on Vista and the rest you can guess. The "A" team returned to work on Win 7. When you dig into problems deep enough you uncover the hidden truth that no one wants to admit. Thanks Dr. Malone for digging into CrowdStrike.
Am I to believe that this BSOD error that happens regularly, repeatedly on every single Windows system where the CROWDSTRIKE update was installed was not even tested ONCE before worldwide deployment? That is incomprehensible incompetence!
Back in the nineties, I was a software QA engineer for Apple, then later a program manager responsible for go/no-go decisions of every system build on every hardware configuration for every factory that Apple had. I once ordered a floor stop at the factory in Cork, Ireland (that cost Apple a million dollars a day) because of my concerns that the laptop battery charging drivers were insufficiently tested and could cause battery fires (that would have cost Apple a lot more).
DEI and the horse it rode in on directly offend and betray principles of freedom and devalue principles of quality and excellence, all of which is foundational to advancing standards of living and living not enslaved. The whole cultural movement is designed to defile and destroy us.
You have exposed the fallacies in DEI. Merit, competence and capability are not traits of race or gender. In addition to all you have covered consider the impact to a hire that knows or feels they needed special consideration to obtain their position.

The confusions being inflicted also in new pet ownership is the ruins of inbreeding for $.
Many a great breeds of Dogs, albeit Grand National field Champs or Glamour AKC Show dogs ruined via inbreeding,
Has been documented and with horrible results. Puppys for cash profit is unchecked.
Folks are buying from breeders with fake registry docs. Or just don't check the back history.
Along with inbreeding come dozens of immunity issues, and metabolic horrors later.
While that may be true, the other side of the coin is lots of people like me live part time in Mexico and a lot of us end up adopting a stray dog.

Joe Biden may well be the poster child for DEI.
A useful, useless pawn for the un democratic democrats. Watching him look completely gobsmacked as they turn on him to “ save democracy “ is sickening. The absolute last thing his handlers want is a leader elected by fair election.

Like the participation trophy crowd learns later in life, just showing up don’t cut it in the real world.
He looks more likely he will become the poster geezer for DIE
Part of nature! Survival of the fittest!

Globalism is code for Imperialism. Unlike the conquest and colonization of people’s through Armadas and figures like Cortez, they are using the virtual domains to do it, liberating themselves from the limitations of geography and national sovereignty, the henchmen and women are multinational so functioning more like an Imperialist cartel.

That is my take until the apple is slice to see if the worm is inside. That could come in Trump's early presidency if he wins.

Yeah, the Bush family apple IS wormy - took me some time to wise up to that; but after his Pence mistake do you really think Trump would choose Vance unless he was absolutely, thoroughly vetted?
Your thoughts?
Some of you may remember Microsoft Vista windows edition, released between XP and Windows 7. It was so buggy they never did fix it and simply dropped it as soon as Win 7 was ready. Why was Vista so buggy? Well it seems Microsoft had its "A" team working on server software so the put their "B" team on Vista and the rest you can guess. The "A" team returned to work on Win 7. When you dig into problems deep enough you uncover the hidden truth that no one wants to admit. Thanks Dr. Malone for digging into CrowdStrike.
Am I to believe that this BSOD error that happens regularly, repeatedly on every single Windows system where the CROWDSTRIKE update was installed was not even tested ONCE before worldwide deployment? That is incomprehensible incompetence!
Back in the nineties, I was a software QA engineer for Apple, then later a program manager responsible for go/no-go decisions of every system build on every hardware configuration for every factory that Apple had. I once ordered a floor stop at the factory in Cork, Ireland (that cost Apple a million dollars a day) because of my concerns that the laptop battery charging drivers were insufficiently tested and could cause battery fires (that would have cost Apple a lot more).
Agree. Which is what leads to the speculation that it must have been intentional.
DEI and the horse it rode in on directly offend and betray principles of freedom and devalue principles of quality and excellence, all of which is foundational to advancing standards of living and living not enslaved. The whole cultural movement is designed to defile and destroy us.
You have exposed the fallacies in DEI. Merit, competence and capability are not traits of race or gender. In addition to all you have covered consider the impact to a hire that knows or feels they needed special consideration to obtain their position.
