Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you were able to get the Black Friday deal you were looking for. I missed mine. It was a 50" 4K TV for $128. Once they sold out, the deal was gone. I've seen some other TV deals that are good, but I was only shopping for one at the right price. $128 was the right price. I'll have to keep getting by with 1080p for now.

I was, however, able to order a second Roku streaming stick. I got the first one on sale in October with the idea of putting it in the bedroom. I set it up and got it running in the living room and ended up never moving it. It became too convenient. Since I wasn't able to find the right TV deal, getting a second Roku device was cheaper than the wrong TV deal. Now that I have Roku, I've been watching TV more than I used to.

I don't watch a lot of movies because of the profanity and such. Traditionally, if I watched something, it was usually something I recorded on a channel that cuts out most of that. There's a service called Vidangel that filters profanity and nudity and whatever else people find objectionable. I haven't used it yet, but I've searched through what they filter. They don't filter every movie or show so it's limited in that respect, but it works with Amazon Prime. Amazon has some shows that look intriguing but are too dirty to watch. The first thing I plan to try is The Expanse. It's a space show with a detective angle. Another SF show I liked but had too much profanity to keep watching was Eureka. Vidangel covers that. Maybe I'll get to watch some of the movies and shows that I never did.

I'm on a 30-day free trial of Prime. That'll let me see how Vidangel works. Roku really works best with a streaming service. It has tons and tons of free stuff, but most of it seems to be uncensored, although I have not spent vast amounts of time looking through everything it offers. If Vidangel works like it's supposed to, I'll let you know more later.

Have a great weekend.

Human ageing process biologically reversed in world first

Here's a link to an interesting article on the fight against ageing.  https://www.yahoo.com/news/human-ageing-process-biologically-reversed-153921785.html The process involves putting people in a hyperbaric chamber for 90 minutes a day for 5 days a week for 3 months. It could add perhaps 30% to someone's lifespan. The article has more details about the specific benefits.

I wonder if this treatment could be the next great investment opportunity. If it works the way it appears, treatment centers will be springing up everywhere.

The microwave went out. I need to go get a new one.

Have a great weekend.

Censored on Facebook

I posted an article to Facebook about the most likely places to catch Covid-19. It appeared in my feed as everything I post does. I tried to post the article 'Hundreds of thousands of ballots are going to have to be discarded'. It was auto-censored. It never appeared. I kept an eye on it, thinking it might need to be curated. About ten minutes later, the post on Covid also vanished. I can see them on my personal wall, but they don't appear on Facebook.

The article 'Conservative answer' to Facebook launches sounds like something I need to read. mewe.com is another alternative to Facebook. I've had a mewe account for a while. Censorship makes me want to dump Facebook.

 

Election Stuff

Well, Trump is still fighting the fight against election fraud. There's always election fraud. The only question is how much. Unless he can find something spectacular, does he really have a case? The one thing that makes me think he might have a chance is how the Democrats keep belittling his legal efforts. They protest too much. If they had nothing to hide, why not let him go through the motions and waste as much Republican money as possible? The fact that they seem nervous makes me suspicious that they really are hiding something.

If you needed more proof that the mainstream, liberal media speaks with one voice, here it is.

 

Have a great weekend.

Democracy Failing

There was no blog last week due to the remnants of hurricane zeta. I lost power for over 62 hours. It was brutal and cold. My entire area was slammed. It's amazing how long an LED flashlight will last compared to the old incandescent ones.

The election results have not been finalized, but it looks like Biden is going to win with over 300 electoral votes. He had zero coattails. The Democrats lost seats in the house and currently have gained no seats in the senate. They're shellshocked and attacking each over the failure.

There was widespread poll fraud leading up to the election with leftists reporting false numbers in a variety of polls the same as happened in 2016. There also appears to be widespread voter fraud. A report that was never followed up stated that one county had more votes than registered voters. There have been other reports of ballot mishandling, etc.

The most serious threat to democracy is the secret counting of ballots. There are multiple instances of election observers being removed from their duty as described by law. Technically, all votes counted without observers could be thrown out. Removing observers is the definition of election fraud. That's behavior we normally only see from third-world dictators. Now it's in the U.S.

In all counties where observers were removed, democracy is no longer operating. Democracy has failed in those counties. Dictatorship has replaced the rule of law. Corrupt officials in those counties are now free to insert as many phony ballots as they need to win. If this is allowed to stand, democracy will no longer be operative in those counties all of which are Democrat. There will never be another fair election in those counties. If this is allowed to stand, this is how democracy dies in the U.S., one county at a time falling to corruption and fraud. It would be the end of democracy in the U.S.

On a different note, during the counting that's ongoing, I've been recommended some YouTube videos in which Christian "prophets" are predicting a Trump victory. Their names are Kevin Zadai, Tracy Cooke and Mario Murillo. I'm not familiar with any of them, although I did recognize the name of Mario Murillo. Perhaps, YouTube has recommended him before, and I ignored it. If Trump loses, as now seems inevitable, put these guys on the false prophet list. Although, to be fair, Trump could win and not become the next president due to election fraud.

Have a great weekend.
