Walrus Corner

We’re all concerned about Walrus going dark when he moves his internet and computer from one location to another.

Why did he move to where he did?

“For the waters.”

But there’s no oceanfront there.

He was misinformed.

“Don’t look now, what’s-your-name, but I think we may be under surveillance.”

New York D.A. Bragg Indicts Oppo for Nothing — Nothing at All

Doesn’t Like the Cut of His Jib

“Well, He May Have Viewed IMAO, Which May Either Have Been a Crime, or a Misdemeanor in Furtherance of a Crime, Which I Haven’t Specified Yet . . . “

Judge Merchan: The jurors do not need to believe a crime was committed in order to convict Trump of unlawfully hiding a crime he never committed.
Conservative Treehouse | May 26, 2024 | Sundance

Judge Merchan has yet to release the public version of jury instructions, however he previously decided last week that the jurors do not need to agree on a predicate crime in order to find President Trump guilty of trying to hide one.

Fifth Amendment: “No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment …”

Sixth Amendment: “In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall… be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation…”

Apt quote:

“The more lilliputian their maneuvers, the bigger they make the giant they are trying to tie down.”

Straight Line of the Day: Once the Nanobots Take Over Your Body and Connect You to the Internet, …

We Are Being Warned That Nanobots Will Be Flowing Through Our Bodies “By 2030” And Will Be Used To Connect Our Brains To The Internet
End of The American Dream | 5/16/24 | Michael Snyder

Once thousands of nanobots are zipping around inside your body, will you still be in control of your mind, will and emotions or will the nanobots be running the show? According to Google, a nanobot is “a hypothetical, very small, self-propelled machine, especially one that has some degree of autonomy and can reproduce”. Scientists here in the United States have been working on nanobots that can travel through our bodies at astonishing speeds, deliver medicines to targeted locations, and even enter our brain cells. Eventually, researchers hope to use nanobots to connect our brains directly to the Internet. I realize that all of this sounds quite crazy, . . .

Nah…

Futurists often claim that nanobots hold the key to eternal life. Inventor, author, and Google futurist

(He’s planning to use Google at some point in the future?)

Ray Kurzweil, in an interview with Neil deGrasse,

(Did his Tyson go bankrupt?)

claimed that tiny nanobots in our bloodstreams will prevent us from dying in 2030.

Other years, apparently, are up for grabs.

According to Kurzweil, the nanobots will travel inside you on a molecular level, protecting your biological system and ensuring you’ll have a good and long life.

So they’re just tiny little Spocks?

Pessimistic Oppo Sez: I’m Just Glad I Won’t Live To See the Next Fifty Years.

For the first time in history, Iran attacked the homeland of Israel. It launched the largest wartime array of cruise missiles, ballistic missiles and drones in modern history—over 320 projectiles.

Iran’s theocrats simultaneously claim they are about ready to produce nuclear weapons. And, of course, since 1979, Iran has periodically promised to wipe Israel off the map and half the world’s Jews with it.

Most ignore these crazy threats and write them off as the braggadocio of dictators. But as we saw on October 7, the barbarity of human nature has not changed much from the premodern world, whether defined by savage beheading, mutilations, murdering, mass rape, torture, and hostage taking of Israeli elderly, women, and children.
