Pete Hegseth has a hilariously bad record as SecDef. In any non-Trump administration he would already be gone (and would never have been nominated). Despite his significant fuckups, he's still there because he's loyal.

Remember when farm owners influenced Trump to say there would be carve-outs for undocumented farm workers, but there was an intence MAGA backlash? I wonder if we will see something similar here when delivery companies have to pay more for delivery workers.

A YouTube whitelist would go a long way, but I think Google don't want you to do that. The ads are obviously another problem if you can't block them.

One option (if you are technical) is to use automation tools to subscribe to a whitelist of channels and pre-cache the videos locally.

Interesting that their mathematics was base 60. I sometimes wonder how different our mathematics would be, had we evolved with 12 fingers instead of 10.

Agreed. In a film, the music is supportive but in a concert hall it is appreciated alone. In the early 80s I was a big Star Wars fan, but at a concert when the orchestra played the main theme it just felt out of place.

Dang, TIL Wojciech Kilar died in 2013. Anyway, Hans Zimmer and Danny Elfman give Williams some good competition.
