Does anyone miss this sound?

The Internet Shouldn’t Require ID.

Reclaim The Net: Every age check creates another opportunity to connect identity with online activity. 

Once the checkpoint is built, the only question is what it guards next.

Age verification is being used to justify digital ID checks that erode online anonymity. See where online age checks have been proposed, enacted, enforced, or stopped by a court. 

Put the fork down, Ma'am.

Yikes! Grifting widow Erika Kirk has let herself go, not that I found her attractive. But whoa...

The photo apparently is REAL. 

Erika encroaching on Randy Fine territory. 🤣 

Some non-mainstream social media sites CLAIM Erika is A) preggers and B) the father is Lamar Odom.  I, as usual, believe nothing. Just passing along the speculation of what I'm reading on the Al Gore Super Information Highway. 

* Kirk fat photo is fake.  

Trump supports Crypto; Freeing Silk Road's Ross Ulbricht.

Crypto News: Industry support and the Silk Road founder release: what Trump promises to the crypto community.

[Trump] promised to release the founder of the darknet marketplace Silk Road, Ross Ulbricht. If he wins the election, Trump promised to cancel the sentence on the first day.
[.]
He also pledged to support self-custody rights for the nation’s 50 million digital assets holders.

The story mentions Trump has solid and large support from the digital currency community while they view Biden and Handlers as anti-crypto, which they are. The article states Trump saying he'd never allow the launch a CBDC.

Great; yeah! 👍👍

Trump should've pardoned Ulbricht, along with Julian Assange and Edward Snowden, his first time around.

Internet in Real Time.

How many posts, searches and uploads occur every second to FB, X, IG, You Tube, Pinterest, Google, Yandex and other social media sites or online Big Media? How many people are calling an Uber or using Skype every second?

This site Tracks that data it in real time: The Internet in Real Time. Check it out. It doesn't include Blooger or WP. Awwwwww...😭  It should, I'd like to see real-time data tracking for posting on both Bloog and WP.

It's kind of like the USA Debt Clock but for Social Media and other online commercial sites.

Largest solar storm in decades!

NPR: The largest solar storm in decades is slamming into the Earth.

The source of the solar storm is a cluster of sunspots on the sun's surface that is 17 times the diameter of the earth. The spots are filled with tangled magnetic fields that can act as slingshots, throwing huge quantities of charged particles [known as Coronal Mass Ejections] towards our planet.

If Comms are compromised, if Al Gore's SuperDuper Information Highway goes glitchy, if things go south, we'll know it was planned to coincide and that the solar storm is the false narrative. What better timing?

A Spectacular Technical Achievement is Upon Us!

Oh Boy! A more modern look and feel! Don't worry, Beta-Testing a resounding success. Passed with flying colors. No glitches. No redesigns that impact the current simplicity of it.

If you dislike the changes, will they allow you to revert to the legacy mode?

"Vat do you mean you don't like ze chang-zes? You vill like ze chang-zes und you vill use them!"

Rad Fem to take on /pol/.

"Manosphere content." LMFAO!

"Times up." Sure Toots! 

Give /pol/ all ya got. Good luck! 🤣

FBI paying attention to online slang; it "might be Extremism."

Other slang that may draw FBI scrutiny includes "Looksmaxxing" and "LARPing". Read more at:

NY Post: FBI documents associate internet slang like "based" and "red pill" with "extremism".

New documents released Monday warned that common internet lingo is being associated with “Violent Extremism” by the FBI.
[.]
Many of the terms mentioned in the FBI’s list of incel terminology are either widely used across the internet or innocuous in nature.

"Lingo"? 🤣 Groovy Baybee. Very Hip.

"It was just like those incels Chad and Stacey, who are based and red pilled, to say, 'Hey, it's over. Just be first.' They both are Looksmaxxing. Their LARPing is tedious." 

^ This is how the FBI, under AG Merrick Garland's DOJ and, Biden and his Handlers, spends its time...¯\_(ツ)_/¯...

How will you determine and decide when to end your Site?

Just curious. Some blogs/sites havent been updated "X" months or years ago. They end and that's it. I keep a few on the Blog Roll because they're great people and there's one I wish would do at least an annual update...but...(sigh)...

Some take time to publish a final post. At least knowing is nice, I guess.

Some have left and returned. Others, I presume, Left Planet Keyboard and are in a much better place and wouldn't return if they could.

Will you assign your site to someone you know who will run it as you did?

I know We all mourn the loss of our like-minded Brethren, no matter what the reason is for wrapping up a site.

What are your plans for exiting the Blogosphere...ya know - IF that day ever comes?

Still toying with the Blog Roll.

I attempted to remove the blogs and sites listed HERE.

They are the sites that aren't bumping up the link list when they update.

The links to them work, they just don't bump up. I know the four sites I attempted to delete, your site will be added back after "a cycle", please don't think I deleted your site for anything other than this tech gremlin.

I'm not sure they are deleted as they still show up, at least for me. Maybe it takes a "cycle" for them to be removed.

After a +/-24 hour cycle, I will add them back to the blogroll (if they do delete) and we'll see if their feed is detected.

I've TEMPORARILY removed the following sites from my Blog Roll.

Five minutes later ... Well that's interesting. I deleted the below sites, clicked "SAVE." Reloaded the page and they're still at the bottom of the Blog Roll. Did it again, same thing, not "removed." So - another glitch to play with. UFReal.

- - -

* The Daley Gator (New Home),

 * JPFO, 

* GunBlogger, 

* The Religion of Peace.

The links to the sites work. The problem is, Blogger isn't detected their feed when they're updated and bumping them up as "most recently updated".

I'll add them back after +/- 24 hours. Maybe that will get Blogger to recognize the feed and return them to the "bump up" when updated.

I don't know what the deal is and why this is happening. Maybe by removing them, waiting a day and adding them back will fix the problem.

Thank you for your patience.

Blog Roll "most recently updated" seems restored!

Working pretty much. Irish has a post that is so helpful. THANK YOU, IRISH!

There are a couple sites whose feeds aren't yet in the "recently updated" flow and I'm working on that.

Everyone that's been on my BRoll is still there. I had changed it to list alphabetically for a little over a day and then I read Irish's post, fiddled around and flipped back to "show most recently updated atop." I'm workin' on it. 👍

"So, here we are, because we are here. And we are here because we are not there. There is not here. There is there, not here. Here is here, and here is where we are."

- Vice President Kamala Harris, September 20, 2022 commenting on the current Blog Roll technical difficulties experienced by some blogs and sites.

Blog Roll Feed still SNAFU.

But I can comment again on my own blog! 

Some of the other blogs and sites still aren't rolling up as showing the most recently updated, while others are. I don't know if I need to eliminate the "/feeds/posts/default" suffix on the URLs or not. Still going to let it sit a couple days and see if it resolves itself. 

If not, then maybe I'll have to go through my Blog & Site Roll and eliminate the "/feeds/posts/default". That involves work and motivation. ICK!! 

Another option would be to deselect the option of those most recently updated roll up as such and instead select the method of listing the blogs and sites alphabetically, which is a preference I don't like. So...bear with it all. We'll see if the gremlins go away.

FYI The Blog Roll issue isn't me.

As Irish mentioned on August  September 10, there's some gremlins around. I just noticed  while I have the settings "on", that all blogs and sites should update with the most recently updated at the top of the list, that's not happening. Not just Blogger platform either. The Daley Gator (New site) is listed near the bottom. So it's [dot] other domains, including WP. Go figure. 

I can't comment on my blog either. 🤣🤣🤣 I don't know why this is happening.

Just going to give it a couple days and see what happens. Maybe it's Teh Habbening or Climate Change?

Major internet outage hits Canada with 75% national connectivity loss.

Euro Weekly: Major internet outage hits Canada with 75% national connectivity loss.

Canada has suffered a major internet outage across the nation as reported on Friday, July 8.

Canada’s major internet outage is reportedly due to the telecommunications giant “Rogers” suffering technical difficulties that have caused clients across the nation to lose their cable, wireless and internet connections.

Nationwide outage of Internet, cell phones, ATMs...coming soon to the USA. Just gotta test it on Canada or another third-world country first.

IE is DEAD! GOOD!

PC World: Internet Explorer dies today, but its spirit lives on in Microsoft Edge.

The day has finally arrived:

Microsoft has killed off Internet Explorer. Or has it? The answer to that is: well, sort of.

Microsoft has said for years that it plans to replace the venerable Internet Explorer browser in favor of a more secure option: Microsoft Edge. Today, IE11 ends support for most users, which means that IE won’t receive any additional support or patches going forward.

If you're still using Internet Explorer, don't panic. Here's what you need to do.

..."Here's what you need to do..." - - - Uninstall IE and install ANY OTHER browser.

CNN labels 4Chan the, "Internet's Wild West."

CNN: Buffalo massacre puts spotlight on hate-filled website.

4chan is part of the internet’s Wild West. While Big Tech platforms like Facebook and Twitter at least try to police their sites, almost anything goes on 4Chan.

"Facebook and Twitter at least try to police their sites."  🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

Perps have livestreamed their own crimes, killings, smash and grabs and worse on FB. Antifa, blm, pro-baby killers all have organized violent protests on both FB an Twitter.

Yes, there are some crazy and ranting posts on 4Chan. But I'm unaware of any unlawful behavior organized and instigated that can be blamed on a 4Chan poster. 4Chan jannies are far more arduous and strict about deleting a post or file than FB, Twitter or the unhinged blue-red hair Redditors.

CNN is the 4Chan of the MSM. How unironic.

"This is CNN...and FB...and Twitter": 

Well today's issue with Blogger, at least for me is replying to comments.

Publish comment from others. 

Enter a reply. Click Publish. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Watch the reload circle spin and spin.

4,5,6 tries later, Huzzah, my reply gets publish. 

Fucking Bloooooger. If it wasn't free they should pay users who use their platform. 

But how does it know I am a robot?

"Something's not right."

Thanks for that notification, Bloooooger. I wouldn't have concluded that without the message.

Friday the 13th? Since Biden's has F'ed Up everything he touches, I suppose it's a matter of time until he shats on the web. I've seen other blogs and sites (Blooooger, WP and other independently hosted sites), all having problems today. Pages won't load or if they do it's a half-assed load. Tried to leave a few comments at Blooooger and WP sites, all of which failed.

Oh...wait, I know what's causing this. It's climate change.
