entropy

Dog is copilot. Dog on lap. Got dog, but he was distant and so I didn't care. Then other humans left, just me and him. We bonded. I prefer dogs to cats (and cats over humans). He has NO nipples which freaks my son (13) out, but no prob. Ms. Lady Kootoo has nips, but she's also neutrered, and a teeny female cat. I2C goes to 0.4 Mhz. SPI to 20 Mhz. Will talk more later. Tired.

Ricin

Just to be clear, my wife made me pay big $$ for a laborer to nuke / raze my back yard. which had canopies and privacy and trees even. And she agreed to let me keep, once. Now we have bare dirt. A few leftover plants in pots. A little mint and even a strawberry plant in the dirt. One palm in the corner of the dirt. Of course our front yard is green-grass perfect (in socal, idiots...) At least we killed the Arondo, right? After massive multiple chem warfare. http://www.trbimg.com/img-516ed344/turbine/la-na-ricin-explainer-20130417-g/950 We have a few disturbed-soil castor plants that don't need anything to grow --no water, fertilizer, nothing. Just disturbed soil. Very common for that reason; a roadside invasive. Anyway, nothing eats it. Funny that --I guess you really do need your ribosomes :-) It can be pretty. I try to avoid touching it as it can heighten sensitivity; its been years since the harmless but very distracting poison ivy/oak reaction has messed with me. But that's just inflammation, not protein stoppage. You can kill it with roundup (tm). But as long as it doesn't grow around infrastructure (HVAC, sprinklers) I don't care. Somewhere someone is injecting ricin in very very low amounts into rabbits or goats, then bleeding them for antibodies. These antibodies are used to screen congressional mail. Anyone see any biblical refs here? Anyway, a few coarse hits will be resolve in a few days. Hilarious how one yahoo with a few beans can close down the Roman posts.
Ricin suspect hired by senator as Elvis impersonator ENTROPY WINS http://www.latimes.com/news/politics/la-pn-ricin-suspect-elvis-impersonator-20130418,0,880787.story W=TF is the new unifying theory of the universe. --- "He's an entertainer. He's an Elvis impersonator. He entertained at a party that my wife and I held for a young couple that was getting married," the senator said. "My impression is that since that time he's had mental issues. He's not as stable as he was back then."

cox.com so stupid

trying to pay a bill. Can't log in since I don't remember my email password. they can't change it over the phone without pin because of fcc and phone link. I don't have recent bill with pin. gotta wait for wife who set it up, stupid, stupid, stupid, only want my email passwd reset so I can log in to account to pay bills. Cox, I'm "axing" you to fix this, this is how your techreps talk when I'm forced to reset my docsis modem on *your* end, maybe this is what you understand. Stupid fucking cox have no choice but satellite because they have some sodomistic relationship with city and phys infrastructure.

dog narc

So dogg and I go to a public park nearby (he won't walk unless I drive him somewhere on sundays). We watch a woman try to train a bunch of midsized dogs and their owners. Four dogs. But they are letting them off their leashes and one or more of them is hostile. A little girl is barely able to control her hound. They ask us to move. We leave. I call the police when I get home ---commercial dog trainer breaking rules and threatening locals in public park. Not cool. Sorry charlie, take your biz and f'ed up mutts elsewhere. My dog was on a leash and friendly. Turn them into fish food, they're troubled. You and your client$ are neurotic. Go away.

Roomba lifetime costs

Roomba 550 cost about 2-300 US$ about 10 years ago at Cosco. Is in third battery now, after a battery lifetime down to about 5 seconds. It is cranking now. Very good. We have doghair now and this accumulates! Blocked the black/white front passive wheel IR sensors! For about 10$ a year for battery ($30 every 3 years) and maybe $5/yr for filters, replacement brushes etc, its pretty good. Amortized over 10 years: 300 + 10 * 15 = 300 + 150 = 450 / 10 yrs = 45 $/yr to clean the floor autonomously, when we're not home. Nice. ROOMBA and MIT and HAL, SCORE! Also, being in consumer electronics now, I see some of the problems they would have or did face, eg chinese plastic that deforms under stress... But they replaced these easily and Ms. R. continues to work! (I also used some low-temp-softening nylon prototyping plastics to fix a pair of self-fastening screws on the bottom of the 'bot. This saved me about $30 for the stupid replacement part. And saved "duh erth" from "du landfill" <---- fur dur erf moronz And for the price of a pair of "C" batteries one of my walls is working so I can leave Ms. R. to tend to the intended area. peas and doves

Boom

Why does siberia get to have all the fun? Tunguska, now this... There was 3 minutes = 180 sec between flash and boom... that's 36 miles. Just a coincidence.

Small increments

I once donated to EFF, cryptome, and Ron Paul. Boy, am I on some lists. Still some of those persisted and continue. I regard this as fairly redeeming. I have a RP 2008 bumper sticker which seems to cause some occasional mirth.

A manic interested person would perhaps synth 10-100 mg just to understand. More than that is dangerous to others, immoral. Cut it out guys. The problem is, folks in glass empires ought not fly drones, folks in us ought not make enemies like the romans rome did not fall in a day but things happen faster now peas and wuv really, can't we all just get along? social overlays? jurgas?

Dorner neuroscience

Chris Dorner wanted his brain (subject to 2 concussions that he documented) studied for depression (etc). It will be interesting if the LAPD pyre allows such a dissection. Of course, all the LAPD wanted was to shut him up. "Mission accomplished" (tm, George Bush Failure Corp)
