“Lord, would you allow Donald Trump to have a second term as president of the United States.”

December 5, 2020   Humor
 Lord, would you allow Donald Trump to have a second term as president of the United States.

“All gods, the pagan as well as the Christian ones, have possessed a real existence. Did not the ancient Moloch reign? Was not the Delphic Apollo a real power in the life of the Greeks?”

God regrets that he took this Zoom call from Michele Bachmann, thinking it was Marsha Blackburn.

Then there’s whether he’ll skip the inaugural.

But not all transitions have been quite so cordial. If he insists on staying away, Trump would be the fourth incumbent to refuse to attend the inauguration of his successor, Thomas Balcerski, associate history professor at Eastern Connecticut State University, told Newsweek.

The first incumbent no-show was John Adams in 1801, who faced a challenge from his own vice president Thomas Jefferson.

At the time, electors voted twice, with the vice presidency and presidency going to the candidates with the second-highest and highest number of votes. A tie between Jefferson and running mate Aaron Burr was followed by the House of Representatives choosing Jefferson and ending Adams’ tenure. Before the ceremony, he left Washington at 4 a.m. on March 4, the date for inaugurations until 1933.

His son John Quincy Adams followed suit, leaving Washington before the celebrations of Andrew Jackson in 1829. Meanwhile in 1869, Andrew Jackson Johnson, who like Trump had survived an impeachment trial, refused to attend the inauguration of Gen. Ulysses S. Grant, preferring instead to stay in the White House to sign legislation.

Circumstances rather than point-blank refusals were behind the inauguration absences of three other incumbents.

In 1921, poor health prevented Woodrow Wilson from attending Warren G. Harding’s inauguration, although they did ride from the White House to the Capitol together.

On August 9, 1974, Richard Nixon resigned at noon and flew off in Marine One, after which Gerald Ford took the oath of office in the White House.

Another presidential no-show occurred on March 4, 1841 when President-elect William Henry Harrison rode to the Capitol on a white charger. Incumbent Martin Van Buren was nowhere to be seen, although his vice president, Richard Mentor Johnson, did attend Harrison’s inauguration. However, Van Buren was probably not invited by Harrison to participate so it would not be qualified as a snub, Balcerski said.

In GOP Texas, would grandparents sacrifice themselves for their grandkids’ economy

 In GOP Texas, would grandparents sacrifice themselves for their grandkids economy

“Dan Patrick strongly opposed HERO, an unsuccessful Houston ordinance intended to establish legal protections for gay and transgender residents along with some other classes, as he claimed that the ordinance would lead to sexual predators being freely able to enter women’s restrooms. Patrick has stated that if necessary, he would support legislation to require people to use the bathroom that corresponds to the gender listed on their birth certificates.”

GOP eugenics and a Logan’s Run economy must guide COVID-19 policy, because Dan Patrick (not the sports guy, but the RWNJ homophobe) wants to put the Grans under.

Who would do it for as much as the withheld Ukraine aid? George Lopez does Ted Nugent no favors

 Who would do it for as much as the withheld Ukraine aid? George Lopez does Ted Nugent no favors

Tom Hanks reaction to Ricky Gervais joke at Golden Globes Awards show

Apparently Trumpist-bots are trying to be angry about an online message that resembles a stock line in comedian George Lopez’s stage routine about performing a task for less compensation because he’s Latinx.

The backdrop for this is the 30-round AR-15 magazine emblazoned with an imprisoned Hillary flaunted by Donald Trump Junior. The online trends went to citing counter-examples and the discourse deteriorates from there.

George Lopez trended on Twitter Monday morning after commenting on an Instagram account that he would kill President Trump to secure a bounty mentioned during a eulogy at Iranian Major General Qassem Soleimani’s funeral over the weekend.

News of the $ 80 million bounty — which hasn’t been confirmed as actually being sanctioned by the regime and instead was a comment from someone speaking at the funeral — was posted uncritically as fact to an Instagram account Sunday.

Lopez commented, “We’ll do it for half.”

x

According to this article it should have been ok for Lopez’s comment as he is a comedian (Ted Nugent was wrong to imply he wanted to kill Obama as he is a non-comedian-he later apologized and vowed to be civil in future comments) https://t.co/7qVAxVbfG0

— Elaine (@IMissJamesWoods) January 6, 2020

Along with his name, “arrest George Lopez” was soon trending on Twitter as right-wing pundits attacked him for the comment. Turning Points USA founder and president Charlie Kirk tweeted that the comment was “sick” and worth an investigation from the Secret Service. LifeZette TV’s Wayne Dupree, too, asked the Secret Service to get involved. He called Lopez a “violent lunatic” who should be arrested. Mark Levin simply called him a “lowlife.”

In a Functional Country, We Would Be on the Road to Impeachment

April 23, 2019   Humor

This is the title of an opinion piece in the NY Times. It is a good, thoughtful rant, and I don’t disagree with much in it.

Note that it doesn’t say that we should impeach Donald Trump, just that if our country weren’t so screwed up and dysfunctional, we would be impeaching him.

Our country has lost its way. I’m not sure what we can do to bring it back. To Make American Sane Again.

Buy a ticket on the Titanic II?

It’s set to launch in 2022. Yeah, it’s been delayed.

If they want to be “authentic” then I think they need to have all first class passengers in tuxes and tails and hats and long dresses.

And there should be NO mingling of classes.

Keep the fucking slobs that pass themselves as cruise liner passengers down in the holds.

Plans are continuing to launch a new Titanic.

A replica of the infamous ship dubbed the Titanic II is set to make its first voyage in 2022, thanks to Australian billionaire Clive Palmer, who’s fronting a group called Blue Star Line.

Blue Star Line is trying to create an authentic Titanic experience, providing passengers with a ship that has the same interiors and cabin layout as the original vessel, while adding modern safety procedures and 21st century technology.

It will welcome 2,400 passengers and 900 crew members, which is almost the exact same number on board the boat that sank in 1912.

The replica project was originally announced in 2012, with a cruise from Dubai planned for 2018.

Palmer told Cruise Arabia & Africa Online earlier this month that the new launch date for the new boat will be in 2022, which is 110 years after the original. He said the plan is for ship to sail from Dubai to Southampton, where it will begin its Southampton-New York runs.

More than 1,500 people died when the original Titanic hit an iceberg and sank.

What Life Would Be Like Without Mainframes

Unless you’re a professional mainframe programmer, you probably don’t see or think about mainframes very often. But the fact is that no matter who you are, the world around you would likely look quite different if mainframes were not a part of it.

How? Let us explore the ways.

There would be no ATMs

Do you like the convenience of being able to withdraw cash almost anywhere from an ATM? If mainframes disappeared, that convenience would likely disappear along with them.

That is because mainframes help to power the infrastructure that makes ATMs possible.

You could not pay with plastic

Similarly, a world without ATMs would be a world without credit and debit cards. Mainframes process millions of card transactions each day.

If you couldn’t withdraw cash from an ATM or pay for things with your credit or debit card, you’d be in a tough spot, indeed. I guess you could always go to the bank, withdraw a bunch of cash and carry it around with you to make purchases, but then you’d know what life was like before the first ATM and modern credit cards debuted a half-century ago.

State of the Mainframe for 2018 What Life Would Be Like Without Mainframes

Insurance would be hard to get

The ten largest insurers on the planet rely on mainframes. (So do many smaller insurance companies.) That is not likely to change anytime soon.

Mainframes help insurers to process payments and claims. They may also help to do the number-crunching that enables insurance companies to assess risks and determine how much to charge you for a policy.

It may technically be possible to run an insurance company without a mainframe. But doing so would be a lot less convenient for users, who would have to go through a lot more trouble to use their policies and pay their premiums. And insurers would have a harder time accurately pricing policies and calculating risks.

Governments would not govern as effectively

Many government agencies rely heavily on mainframes, too. Sure, some citizens might be happy in the short term if some of the government organizations that depend on mainframes, such as the IRS, ceased to operate. But in the long run, the resulting breakdown in government services would not be good for anyone.

Your power might go out

electricity 3442835 960 720 600x What Life Would Be Like Without Mainframes

Utility companies across the world also rely on mainframes to help deliver services. If mainframes suddenly disappeared, your lights may well go out. Your water might even stop running.

The bottom line is, mainframes help make life what it is today. The world would be very different without them.

The results are in! What are your peers saying about trending best practices and the future of mainframe? Download our State of the Mainframe survey report to stay ahead of the curve this year.
