I think I saw this episode of daytime soap opera. Oh wait, no I didn't. I don't watch that crap. I get all my weird TV-like drama from the news. http://abc7news.com/news/email-sent-by-alleged-kidnappers-of-vallejo-woman-threatens-police/597834/

What the hell does that mean? I have the Google Photos menu, I guess, and then it asks me if I want to create a folder? Isn't that what's already there? Google Drive, you're not keeping us very well informed. No direction on transferring files over or when that might happen? And what does My Tracks have to do with anything?

This should alarm all content creators, especially those creating visual or audio arts.

This should alarm all content creators, especially those creating visual or audio arts. Fox News is arguing that copyright shouldn't matter when they share content on social media because social media is inherently transformative, thus circumventing copyright laws. If Fox wins, it means any entity out there, from for-profit to non-profit corporations and media outlets, can use your content free of charge as long as they share it on social media. This must be those market forces Fox is always saying they're behind.  http://www.ibtimes.com/fox-news-jeanie-pirro-facebook-lawsuit-could-change-copyright-landscape-social-media-1865246

Yesterday I was going through my SD card on my camera, trying to decide what to keep and what to toss. It's a 32gig card and I was using about 29gigs of space. I ran across some pictures I'd forgotten about taking back in August. They were just a handful of random shots of my nephew whom I've only met twice since he lives in Florida with my sister. None of them are special. They're practically on par with mobile phone quality. But, I picked the best 5 or so, edited them up, and emailed them to my sister so she could have some pictures of her kid. Yay! Good uncle, right? Not quite. Last night I get what can only be described as drunk texts from my sister asking where the pictures are of her boyfriend's kid who happened to be with them that day. I'd already explained to her that I only took a handful of pictures and was sending her the better ones.  And let's face it, this is the longest relationship she's been in. How was I supposed to know she would stil

I'm not feeling very confident about Google's  latest move in consolidating storage. Personally, I'd rather use Picasa and Picasaweb again. They weren't perfect, but they were infinitely better than G+Photos (and now Drive).

(See  http://googledrive.blogspot.com/2015/03/photosindrive.html if you haven't.) Like everyone else, I was initially thrilled with the news. We've had the ability to have photos in Drive show up in Google+ Photos for a while now through a weird one-way bridge. Now the bridge goes both ways. Sorta. Kinda. Not quite. But I'm getting ahead of myself. I started playing with it... and after only 15 minutes I have to give the Google D

Mike Pence is either stupid or he believes the rest of the country is stupid. How can he honestly stand before the media and claim he didn't know this legislation would allow discrimination? Hell, people have been talking about this for weeks if not months. Rights groups, non-profits, secular lobbyists and many others have warned about the affects of this bill.  This bill was making headlines before he signed it and he signed it in a closed door private ceremony which indicates he knew of the controversy this bill would generate. And now he wants to play the "I didn't know" card? No. He doesn't get to play ignorati. He knew exactly what he was doing when that bill made it's way through two GOP controlled congressional chambers and when he put pen to paper to make it a law.

Steven Crowder is one of those "Obama can do no right" pundits who will find some angle to blame Obama and liberals in general for just about everything. I think he got into my circles during a Circle share. He never comments or defends his stories (because stories they are, not journalism). Anywho, I'm sharing this one because (1) he really believes Palin would have made a better president than Obama (if that tells you anything, (2) the comments are somewhat hilarious but mostly atrocious and (3) we need to be constantly reminded that people like this exist in real life. They're not all on Fox News spewing their ignorance and hate, nor are they all at Tea Party rallies. Although, it wouldn't surprise me that Steven Crowder travels the country going to Tea Party rallies.

Is the American Dream dead?

Is the American Dream dead? That's an interesting question and up for much debate. Why? Because dreams are just that: dreams. They are wishful meanderings of the mind, there to encourage or challenge us. The American Dream , that ideal we all grew up hearing about, wherein everyone is financially stable, white picket fences and 2.2 children is gone. Modern Americans now struggle to put a roof over their children's heads at all, job security is a legend of a bygone era and the promise of upward mobility is a relic of the past. Corporate personhood, the 1% and the accumulation of a majority of the worlds wealth/resources by just a few has ensured a world where upward mobility is a pipe dream, not an American one. Now the American Dream is merely not to slide backwards - to find peace and contentment at your station in life instead of 'dreaming' of a better life via +Marty Nozz Originally shared by Wisecrack Captain America's got a question for you: Is The American Dr

Although it's supposed to rain, I walked to the gym like I always do. At one point I have to pass through an alley which isn't too much of an ordeal since it's normally fairly well lit. My walk is usually boring but not tonight. Tonight I came upon this little terrier tied to a fence. When I saw him he yapped at me and as I drew closer he growled. Apparently he didn't care for strangers. I didn't see a tag on him, and since he wouldn't let me come nearer I decided to check a nearby pet store, wondering why the dogs owner didn't take him in. But the store had already closed. Actually, aside from the gym and the Dollar Store, everything was closed. Okay. So, being the dog friendly person I am I waited with the dog that kept growling at me. And waited. And waited some more. Finally I heard some people coming out of the back door of the pet store so I followed the voices wondering if someone abandoned the dog near a place that constantly has "Lost Pet"

If you think you live in a free society you should read this. Those of is who think a little deeper than Fox News or lapel pins already know these things. Originally shared by **** It is ironic, considering democracy’s pitiful state worldwide that, in accordance to its etymology, it literally means “common people’s rule” or, more simply, “people’s power.” The English term democracy and the 14th-century French word democratie come from the Greek demokratia via the Latin democratia. The Greek radical demos means “common people,” and kratos means “rule, or power.” How did we manage to pervert such a laudable notion of power to the people and diametrically turn it into a global system of rule at large under the principles of oligarchy and plutocracy? Everywhere we look, from east to west and north to south, plutocrats and oligarchs are firmly in charge: puppet masters of the political class. They have transformed democracy into a parody of itself and a toxic form of government. The social

I see this all the time. People don't want to get involved, they don't want their names out there or for an act of selflessness to turn into a headache. Or, they just don't think it's their problem to address. There's a level of cowardice that's pervasive in our culture that needs to be faced. No one who kept their head down and their mouths shut ever changed anything. "I used to think it was just Mississippians who had this trait of just closing their eyes and not wanting to get involved," Wu says. "I saw it a thousand times growing up--when people wanted to deny that racism was a problem, or that they could do anything about it, they would just shut down and not address it. I used to think that Southerners were fundamentally broken. That is not true. It is part of the human condition. Most people just don't believe in fighting for things greater than themselves. Most people are more self-interested." http://www.inc.com/magazine/201504/d

Well, that was odd.

Well, that was odd. While driving home I came upon a traffic slowdown in a place where there's not normally a traffic slowdown. Not unless there's flooding or snow or something. It's a six lane road (three each way) and I was in the far left lane since my next turn was a left.  In the middle lane I notice someone on foot. A girl, maybe a teenager; petite, nonetheless. She looked like she was trying to cross the road but not at the traffic signal intersection just 30 feet behind me. I saw her go up to a car and try to get into the driver's door but the car sped off. At that point I was thinking someone left her at a nearby store and she was trying to get in, recalling my childhood when my mom drove off in a parking lot because I wouldn't leave. When she couldn't get into the car she went to the next one, a silver sedan, in the center lane. She tried the passenger door but the silver sedan (Mercedes? Lexus?) sped off. By this time I was passing the silver car myse

Granted, I didn't go to any of the Facebook links because Facebook, but the remainder of this is perfect. Originally shared by **** Let's skip to the end of this tired public conversation between blinkered ignorance and actual reality, shall we, Jack Fitzgerald? You are in laughably complete denial of widely observable facts, but even if we pretend that there was any intellectually honest basis for your position, which there is not, it would all boil down to a simple logical argument:  Either the science is correct, or it isn't, but whether we're asking the right questions and understanding the information correctly doesn't matter. We don't get to choose the facts. So let's imagine that we make a chart where column A says “the science is right” and column B says “the science is wrong.” We are in one of those columns, and we don't get to pick which one, we can only make the best educated guesses that we can. There is one thing that we do get to choose, th
