A static fire test (a unique SpaceX methodology) has been accomplished for the upcoming Falcon Heavy mission (launch of Arabsat-6A is now scheduled to take place on April 9th). How heavy is the load in this case? Nearly 13,250 pounds, or about as much as a fully-loaded 27′ Winnebago. From NASA Spaceflight . com: Over […]
I just watched Episode 213 of The Stratosphere Lounge, the “Bill & Natasha” episode, and I must say it was the happiest, most delightful TSL I’ve ever seen. And I’ve been following the show for years.
I need to get out more. I’d never heard of this guy until my kids showed me a video last night. Since I couldn’t stop laughing until I had problems with wine and my sinuses, I thought I’d share it here. He could do with a little less hardware poked into his face, but that […]
A long wide ranging conversation with SF author John C. Wright.
There’s a phrase I’m hearing more and more these days. That phrase is “toxic masculinity”. Time was, qualities like ambition, assertiveness, competitiveness, decisiveness and self-control were considered to be manly virtues. Nowadays, they’re liabilities. The steely-eyed man, with a firm handshake and a bit of iron in his spine is thought to be a dangerous […]
One of the most lauded movies of 2018 was BLACK PANTHER. It even won a couple of Oscars. I liked it quite a bit and it deserved its accolades. There were those who said it should have won Best Picture, and that’s where I have to disagree. Because, as much as I enjoyed BLACK PANTHER, […]
I recently had an exchange with a Leftist, wherein he characterized all of us who value liberty and self-defense as “a bunch of weekend warriors with chips on our shoulders”, and no concept of the “common good”. When I pointed out that all the tyrants of history disarmed their citizenry before starting their extermination campaigns, […]
In recent weeks, the assault on traditional manhood has been intensified. The phrase “Toxic Masculinity” has been bandied about quite enthusiastically in the last couple of years. But, in the last month or so, there seems to be a full court press on the part of the Cultural Marxists and Intersectional Feminists (but, I […]
I finally paid my dues to join all you fine people here, and the first thing I watch is this week’s Backstage show, and what do I hear? The boys insulting my religion! Some days it just doesn’t pay to get out of bed!
I wonder if Apple is opening themselves up to a class action by knowingly suppressing true information and promoting false information about data recovery from their phones.
Instead of telling people to “subscribe” to the YouTube channel or the FB page, why not tell them to bookmark the channel in their browsers? There’s no need to rely on FB or YT “feeds” to receive content. Encourage people to take control.
As I search through old Firewalls and TSLs, I’m curious if Bill has all of his IP backed up to another web archive. If Google/YouTube decides to close his channel, all of that content would be lost forever.
(UPDATE: Successful burn!) The first private spacecraft likely to land on the Moon has to ace a critical engine burn at 10:45 a.m. Eastern Standard Time today, or it won’t make it. From Spaceflight Now: The hydrazine-fueled main engine mounted to the base of the Israeli Beresheet lunar lander is set to ignite around 1415 […]
For all those others who didn’t either, take a look at this amazing gadget. Everybody else, scroll right on over this post. If I still lived in Florida, I’d have one of these (the board, not the lady — I was already married)!
Diana West is tracing back to find out who is who in the get Trump deep state and who their teachers were. Lots and lots of communists.
