Don't mind me, I'm just talking to myself

 The scam debate occurred, while real Americans didn’t watch it because it excluded two candidates that should have also appeared. Its the same as the scam “polls” which exclude everyone that’s running except for the Democrats and Republicans. Maybe the lack of diversity is the reason that 40% of registered voters don’t vote. After all the Ds and Rs are both fielding right wing authoritarian candidates. I mean Biden and Harris are both from the law and order, right wing, extremist wing of the Democratic Party. Calling them Democtrats is like calling Hitler a Democrat.  A vote for the lesser of two evils is still unrepentantly evil. 

 Well, Cox had its ever constant outages again. This time the internet went out around 1:20 am on 9/29 and wasn’t restored until 9:40 pm, also on the twenty ninth. For those counting, i figure the outage lasted 20 hours and 20 minutes. And of course, i had to reboot my cable modem, just because their system is an abomination. Nothing like the lack of service to make you wish for a backup internet service. And all Cox wants to do is upsell you to more no guarantee internet. Theres a company in Vegas called LV.net that I’m going to have to check out. Its claim to fame is that they use microwave transmission to get the internet to your premises.  Considering the fact that Cox claims the fiber cuts they suffer are “out if their control”, its time to get a provider that doesn’t always pass the buck. After all, they insist you pay your bill, no matter if they don’t provide any reliable, consistent service. 

 In the latest On Tech newsletter by the New York Times, it says in part: Health data isn’t always useful:  Is it useful for people to regularly measure their blood oxygen saturation — a feature new to the Apple Watch and in some other smart watches?  Probably not for most healthy people , my colleague Brian X. Chen wrote after asking medical experts.  I’ll say. On the Fitbit Versa, the data they collect to come up with your SPO2 is faulty, just like counting your arm swings to calculate the amount you step. I can’t even say it’s close. The step count is invariably low by 30-40% and the specific oxygen level is off by several percentage points.  I have a dedicated, reasonably accurate oxymeter that has an app which passes the information to the Apple Health app automatically. It measures my SPO2 usually at 98-99%. The Fitbit watch face measures 91-93%. This difference is sizable, and dangerous to give out. The site that it takes the measurements, your wrist is n...

 Blogger had a shitty new interface that i tried out months ago and went back to the old interface. Only today’s guardians of the internet would spin a decrease in features into some kind of progress. You SUCK Google. I used to get stats so i could see the readership that i get. Now i get information about the latest post and almost no additional information. Considering that i used to get about 10-20 different metrics, the only way you could justify calling the new interface “progress” is that you’re delusional. 

 Well, I’ve once again been screwed by my fucking Fitbit Versa. The god forsaken thing now won’t charge uless you do incantations to the devil. Eighteen hours and four attempts to get it to charge this time. So now you can’t even track your sleep patterns. So now its down to a single function watch, tracking your “steps”. Even that is so inaccurate as to be laughable. Most of today it was only recording approximately one third of my steps as recorded by the Pacer app on my iPhone. And even that is only accurate to a degree. Mostly Pacer records 85-90% of real steps.  Its a watch, right? Well you have to bang on it so much to get the display to wake that it’s easier to reach for your phone to find out what time it is. DON’T BUY THIS WATCH UNLESS YOU’RE LOOKING FOR A $250 DECORATION.  </rant>

The National Catholic Prayer Breakfast is a fascist organization, which seems to fit well with Catholic Church hierarchy, which is corrupt like most centers of power. I mean, how many times do sexual and child abuse charges get swept under the carpet? And it’s been going on for several decades. The Catholic Church hierarchy needs to pay attention to the Bible, especially Matthew 6:24. They’ve definitely chosen Mammon as their guiding principle. This is (in part) what Wikipedia has to say about the organization: President  George W. Bush  addresses the National Catholic Prayer Breakfast in Washington, D.C., April 13, 2007. The  National Catholic Prayer Breakfast  is an annual event that takes place in Washington, D.C. It was created in response to Pope  John Paul II 's call for a new evangelization. History [ edit ] It was established in 2004 and its "founding circle" members included  Joseph Cella ,  Leonard Leo , and  Rick Santo...

So, a large proportion of the American public are certifiably insane. According to the New York Times Evening Brief: With eight weeks to go until Election Day, 37 percent of registered voters say Mr. Trump has done a good job handling the pandemic, and 56 percent say he has done a bad job, according to  a new poll from Monmouth University . Only insane people would find Trump is doing a good job of anything except using the job of President to line his own pockets with criminally obtained funds. It seems every day we get another lesson on how corrupt Donnie boy is. His delusional behavior is getting more and more bizarre. And Barr, the President’s own lapdog, has no problem using government funds for Donnie boy’s private enrichment. Treason is the only answer. Vlad Putin is laughing his ass off. And America slides further into the Shithole country classification.
