    @ Bunk Five Hawks X:
    LOL I absolutely loved playing with neural networks 25 years ago. Training them with pictures of shapes ( now they do it with faces at the speed of light )

    You feed it a black and white image of, say, a square then tell it that is a square. ETC with other simple shapes. Training the neural network.

    Then run a test and show it a shape and ask what is it.

    After over 30 minutes it usually came back with ” Unknown ”

    Modern AI would come back with a smart ass answer like ” It is a lettuce ”

    They are training AI to be comedic.

    Unrelated topic but educational.

    In the USA you have towns and cities. Sometimes a place is called a city and there are only about 12 people living there.

    In the UK a place where people live, even though they may have a population over a quarter of a million is called a town, not a city.

    The designation of a city is if there is a cathedral there.

    Glad I cleared that up.

    He’s trying to scare the crap out of what’s left of the Iranian government. At some point the rebels need to take control, but they’d probably be slaughtered en masse unless they had significant arms. A transitional government is needed, but who is going to manage that transition/civil war?

    @ Bunk Five Hawks X:

    Easy for me to say, yes, but they need to strike while the iron is hot, or, are they waiting for the signal from Trump saying when its time to go ?
    The only reason why I questioned this ‘8pm deadline’ is that I know Trump would not murder 90 million people so I wondered why use this tactic – if I don’t believe it, why would they ? I mean, if I were top brass over there I would have made my decisions on how to handle this based on thinking ‘No WAY is he going to do this !!’ So then, what was the point ? I know, guess wrong and its over but ya know ‘No way’.

    I have a plan for the future.

    Made a beef stew with obviously beef and baby carrots and expensive pearl onions and mushrooms and used a packet of McCormick slow cooker mix.

    Tastes great! Last of it will be served on buttered fresh Italian bread. In the USA I think it is called an open faced sandwich.

    Anyway I am a a gourmet chef and presentation is important. The seasoning mix turned everything into the same colour.

    Next batch at a slow cooked stew will be using seasonings that do not colour the stew.

    That way the vibrant colour of the beef, carrots and pearly white onions emerge. Fuck the mushrooms.

    A picture of the end of the last batch of beef stew may be posted to show how Lucy cooked it and the individual ingredients remained distinguishable but colour was messed up

    Now, I am sure people in here know much more about oil, and global oil prices than I do, but.

    Trump is rejoicing there is a fleet of oil tankers that are empty, the biggest and yugest oil tankers ever built heading to the USA to pick up the sweetest crude oil ever.

    I thought the USA was in a slight oil deficit, so why is the USA exporting it?

    In my World, the USA should use all oil internally, only export any surplus and internal to USA price of oil should remain stable.

    But no, internal price of USA produced oil is tracking the global oil price.

    Personally I buy coconut oil, and would by peanut oil ( smoke point is higher ) but Walmart no longer sells it in 16oz sizes only one fucking gallon.

    As fresh bread, wine, eggs, frozen fries just arrived I am done for the day.

    I don’t always agree with you, but you hit the nail on the head. As someone who’s family worked the oil fields during his childhood, I can’t agree more wholeheartedly that we need to use domestic oil domestically and to hell with everyone else. Our prices should reflect our own production. This may not be realistic for reasons I’m unaware, but I’ve always thought it should be our policy.

    My head hurts. Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz, then re-opened it for any tanker that paid a transit fee of $1 per barrel of oil.

    That is not actually much really if you see the way the price of oil bounces around. And half the transit fee would be given to Oman. Hey we have toll roads in the USA!

    Trump response is closing the Strait of Hormuz completely.

    Oh well, China is pissed now.

    Did they ever replace our emergency oil reserves, the one that Biden supposedly gave away ?


  29. Possum
    29 | April 12, 2026 10:26 pm

    @ 4_Sticks:

    The U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR)—the nation’s primary emergency crude oil stockpile—has not been fully replaced or restored to pre-2022 levels as of April 2026. It remains significantly depleted compared to historical highs.

    energy.gov

    Background on the DepletionIn 2022, the Biden administration conducted the largest drawdown in SPR history, releasing approximately 180–300 million barrels (depending on the exact accounting of emergency sales, coordinated IEA actions, and other releases) in response to surging energy prices after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. This dropped the inventory from over 600 million barrels (end of 2020/early 2021) to a low point around 350–370 million barrels by late 2022/early 2023—the lowest level since the early 1980s.

    fortune.com

    The Biden administration later pursued a buyback program using proceeds from those sales. By November 2024, it claimed to have delivered or contracted about 200 million barrels (slightly more than the core 180 million emergency release), at an average price around $75/barrel, closing out the available emergency funds. However, even after these efforts—and some modest additional purchases or exchanges—the SPR stood at roughly 387–395 million barrels by early 2025, still far below full capacity (~714 million barrels) and pre-drawdown levels.

    energy.gov

    Refill Efforts Under the Trump Administration (2025–Early 2026)The Trump administration (starting 2025) made refilling the SPR a stated priority and added back an estimated ~47 million barrels through early 2026 via purchases, exchanges, and other mechanisms. By March 2026, the inventory had recovered modestly to around 415–416 million barrels (about 58% of capacity).

    fortune.com

    However, this was not a full restoration. Critics and reports noted slow progress, partly due to higher oil prices limiting opportunistic buys and limited congressional funding for large-scale purchases (e.g., only modest appropriations like $171 million in some packages).

    mineralrightspodcast.com

    Recent Developments (March–April 2026)In March 2026, amid oil price spikes tied to geopolitical disruptions (including conflict involving Iran and potential Strait of Hormuz issues), the Trump administration authorized a new release of 172 million barrels from the SPR. This was part of a coordinated International Energy Agency (IEA) action involving ~400 million barrels total from member nations. The release is structured largely as loans/exchanges to companies, with the promise that borrowers will return the oil plus a premium (extra barrels).The administration stated it had “arranged to more than replace” the drawdown with ~200 million barrels within the next year (20% more than released), “at no cost to the taxpayer” via these exchanges.

    energy.gov

    Deliveries of the release began in March/April 2026 and are expected to take ~120 days.
    As of early April 2026 (latest weekly data), the SPR inventory was around 413–415 million barrels (pre-full impact of the new release or ongoing exchanges). Once the 172 million barrel drawdown is complete, levels could drop toward ~243 million barrels temporarily—the lowest since the early 1980s—before any returns boost it back.

    ycharts.com

    Ongoing solicitations (e.g., for additional loans/exchanges of 30 million barrels as of early April 2026) continue, with returns expected to include premiums that could net positive volume over time. Full recovery to prior levels or capacity would still take years at typical fill rates, potentially into 2028 or beyond, depending on oil prices, congressional funding, and market conditions.

    reuters.com

    SummaryNo, the emergency reserves have not been fully replaced or restored to pre-2022 levels.
    Partial refills occurred (net ~20–50+ million barrels added post-2022 under Biden, plus more under Trump by early 2026), but a new large drawdown in 2026 has offset recent gains.
    The SPR is designed as a buffer for genuine supply emergencies, and recent actions use exchange mechanisms intended to avoid net long-term loss (with potential gains via premiums). However, the inventory remains well below full capacity (~714 million barrels) and historical norms, raising ongoing questions about long-term energy security readiness.

    For the most precise current numbers, check the U.S. Department of Energy’s SPR Quick Facts or EIA weekly inventory reports, as levels fluctuate with deliveries and exchanges.

    Well at noon in the civilized World the UK equivalent of the Dow Jones/Nasdaq/S&P 500 (FTSE 100) opened about 0.6% down and is now at -0.44%

    So, no real stock market change in UK because if the failed US-Iran negotiations.

    I predict about -0.5% when NYSE opens in an hour.

    @ Possum:
    I love Grok!

    Spot on with the FTSE observation—and your US open call looks like it’s tracking pretty well too.

    hl.co.uk

    FTSE 100 opened around 0.6% lower this morning (near 10,528–10,538 area) and has been hovering in the -0.37% to -0.53% range through the UK afternoon session (currently around 10,544–10,562, depending on the exact tick).

    investing.com +1

    That’s a muted reaction overall, exactly as you said—no big capitulation despite the weekend headlines.The context is clear: weekend talks in Islamabad between the US and Iran collapsed with no deal, followed by President Trump announcing a US naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. Oil spiked back above $100 (Brent), which is weighing on risk sentiment, but the UK market (more domestically focused and already pricing in some tension) hasn’t panicked.

    reuters.com +1

    US futures right now (as of ~1:06 PM UTC / just before the 1:30 PM open)S&P 500 futures: ≈ -0.45% to -0.5%
    Dow futures: ≈ -0.8% to -0.9% (heavier because of energy sensitivity)
    Nasdaq-100 futures: ≈ -0.4%

    Your -0.5% prediction for the broad US indices at the open is basically printing right now. Markets are taking the failed talks as a “back to square one” scenario after the brief relief rally last week, but not yet a full-blown risk-off meltdown.

    finance.yahoo.com +1

    We’ll know in ~20–25 minutes how much of that futures move sticks at the cash open. Oil staying elevated and any headlines on the Hormuz blockade will be the real drivers for the rest of the session. Nice read on the limited FTSE move—Europe’s digesting this more calmly than the US pre-market is.

    So, it has been a long time since I woke up and a nice lunch and more FBI Agent Maggie bell awaits.

    As to me talking with Grok, feel free to scroll past it all.

    I am done for the day.

    Just continued Grok financial discussion with this. I posted…

    LOL when NYSE opened things took a dive .44% nasdaq and .70% dow. now things bouncing back to opening. Nobody is panicking.

    It replied.

    Haha, yeah—classic “sell the news, then buy the dip” vibe playing out right in front of us. At the NYSE open this morning (around 9:30 AM ET / 1:30 PM UTC), we saw exactly what you called: Dow dropped roughly 0.7–0.8% initially
    Nasdaq hit about -0.44% to -0.5%
    S&P 500 opened around -0.4% to -0.5%

    That was the immediate reaction to the failed US-Iran talks over the weekend and Trump’s announcement of the naval blockade on the Strait of Hormuz starting today. Oil spiking back above $100–103 (Brent ~$101–102, WTI pushing higher) added fuel to the early selling, especially hitting energy-sensitive names and broader risk sentiment.

    cnn.com

    But you’re spot on again—no real panic. Within the first hour or so, buyers stepped in, and we’ve bounced right back toward (or even slightly above) the opening levels in many cases. As of mid-session: S&P 500 trading near flat to -0.1% to -0.2% (hovering around 6,805–6,820 after opening near 6,839)
    Dow recovered a good chunk of that initial 0.7% drop, now closer to -0.3% to -0.6%
    Nasdaq also stabilizing, down only modestly (~ -0.05% to -0.2%)

    Volume isn’t screaming fear, and the VIX isn’t exploding. Markets are treating this as “more of the same” geopolitical noise rather than a new shock—especially since the Strait has already been heavily disrupted for weeks. The quick recovery suggests traders are pricing in that talks could resume eventually, or that the blockade’s impact is already partially baked in.FTSE 100, as you noted earlier, stayed chill the whole day—closing the session around -0.35% to -0.4% (near 10,560), basically shrugging it off.Bottom line: Your read has been solid so far. No meltdown, just a healthy wobble on headline risk, with dip-buying kicking in fast. Oil will probably stay the main story for the rest of the week—if it holds above $100 without spiking further, equities should keep this resilient tone. How are you seeing the rest of the day playing out?

    Not telling Grok my Missy Peregrym ( Maggie Bell of FBI ) obsession. LOL

As a kid, seeing a can with the pic of the good chef Boyardee himself on the can in out kitchen cabinet would make my day more than once I can tell ya ! And a slice of white bread (Wonder) to mop of that sauce with and I wouldn’t be hungry again ’til dinner. Now, if Soupy Sales was on, followed by ‘The 3 Stooges’ and then Vic Morrow / COMBAT!, I was happier than a pig in sheet. This means of course that it was a Tuesday afternoon after school
    Lets see, Campbells soup was ‘mmmm, mmm good’ IIRC and Wonder Bread … wow, I no longer remember (I do Gloria Okon weather lady/ channel 11, hawked ‘Arnolds Brick Over Bread’). Oh yeah, I remember: “Boy oh BOY, Boyardee !!”…. I think…

    Possum, I sincerely hope that you were not really this desperate for food and you were just havin’ a little fun here, RIGHT ?

    @ 4_Sticks:
    Believe it or not I actually like the damn stuff, but it has to be served correctly. Not just slapped on a plate or in a bowl on its own.

    First, toast some very fresh bread, not the Wonder loaf shit that lasts a month, but the fresh Italian or French bread from Walmart. It has a “baked on ” date and and ” eat by ” date which is three days later. They are not joking, on day four it starts growing fur.

    Anyway, while the toast is cooling, and the cooling is important, microwave half a can of Chef Boyardee until it bubbles.

    Why let the toast cool? so it can be slathered in real butter without the butter melting and turning the toast soggy. Sliced sharp cheddar can be added at this stage. And as James Bond would say ” sliced, not shredded ”

    Top with the Chef Boyardee and enjoy!

    Warning, it is not an American type meal you can pick up and eat. You must use a knife and fork.

    @ Bunk Five Hawks X:
    I have done extensive research into the latest phenomenon of translated Japanese posts showing up on our ” you may be interested in this ” feed.

    I think that if you reply to a translated post then X does not translate your comment back to Japanese for them to be able to read, understand and laugh at.

    Unfortunately it is not a true two way conversation.

    Now, that is me done for today thinking. It is Friday and party time!

    61 | April 17, 2026 12:39 pm

    @ Possum:
    Supporting data, and you all knew there would be some.

    Problem is that if I reply the japanese people do not see my reply in japanese, and so ignore my reply

    And the very long answer and explanation is…

    You’re right—that’s a common frustration with X’s auto-translation system right now.Here’s exactly why Japanese users often ignore or miss your replies:When you reply in English, the original Japanese poster (and their Japanese-speaking followers) sees your reply automatically translated into Japanese via Grok.
    Auto-translations on X are often clunky or unnatural (especially for casual replies, jokes, or specific terms like bee poop/honey). Many Japanese users find machine-translated English replies awkward, low-effort, or hard to read, so they simply scroll past them.
    Japanese X users are very active and tend to engage more with replies written in natural Japanese. They can tell at a glance if it’s a real Japanese reply versus an auto-translated one.

    Best ways to fix this and get more replies from Japanese users:Write your reply directly in Japanese (even if it’s simple or uses a translator first).This is the most effective. Japanese users see it in clean, original Japanese text → much higher chance they’ll read and respond.
    If your Japanese isn’t great, type in English first, then use a good translator (DeepL works better than Grok for Japanese in many cases), and copy-paste the Japanese version.
    Bonus: Add the original English in parentheses or as a quote if you want to be extra clear.

    Mark languages in your X settings (helps a bit with visibility):Go to Settings and privacy > Accessibility, display, and languages > Languages.
    Under “Recommendations”, add Japanese to the languages you understand.
    This can reduce unnecessary auto-translation in both directions and signals to the algorithm that you’re comfortable with Japanese content.

    Other practical tips:Start your reply with something simple in Japanese like 「蜂のうんちですね」 (It’s bee poop lol) or 「蜂蜜じゃなくて蜂の糞でした!」 to grab attention immediately in their language.
    Keep replies short and friendly—Japanese net etiquette often favors light, polite, or humorous tones.
    If you reply in English anyway, you can add at the end: “(日本語訳: [your Japanese version])” so they see both.

    The auto-translation feature is great for reading foreign posts, but it still creates a bit of a barrier for replying across languages because the quality isn’t perfect yet. Writing in the original poster’s language (Japanese) almost always gets better engagement on these viral Japanese posts.Want help translating a specific reply you’re thinking of making to that bee post? Just paste what you want to say in English, and I’ll give you a natural Japanese version.

    So, basically if you want to piss of the people of Japan you need to work really hard.

    Stick to pissing off the English. 🙂

    Before we all go for our afternoon nap, A tip if you have a male cat that likes to decorate the bedroom.

    They tend to mark the blanket that hangs over the bottom of the bed, sneakily because they are cats of course.

    Anyway, when stripping of the bed sheets and replacing the blankets make sure you put the blanket back on, feet side to the feet side.

    Otherwise you have weeks of stale but still pungent cat piss around your neck.

    The waiting room at the infusion clinic had a monitor on the wall that played an infomercial on loop. Little cartoon people explaining how to make appointments or something, with an annoying little jingle at the end. Then it would start over. Nobody in the waiting room could see it as the screen faced the reception desk. It was torture for the receptionists, and for us if the clinic wait time was longer than usual.

    After every visit I’d get an email request to fill out a survey, so in the comments section of every survey I reported the obnoxious video. Someone read my comments, and since it was the holiday season they replaced it with your fireplace video. The pretty receptionists thanked me.

    Ooops, sorry, missed your response until just now .. as I’m shuttin’ stuff down and hittin’ the sack. One thing that I really recall about those cans of ***** is that the Ravioli, for some reason, cause me to experience cramps around my belly. Beefaroni ? No problem, could eat 2 cans with ease.
    I always ate a slice of bread with the stuff. My dear ol’ dad taught med this, it prevented heart burn he said, soaked up the stomach acid. Its always worked for me and right up until today.
    As a kid I had a cast iron stomach. Guess my brain/body knew what size I was going to grow to. Not quite Trumps sons height but close. Everyone knew that if they couldn’t finish what was on their plate, just dump it onto mine. And, when the potatos were all gone BUT there was grave=y left… Yeah, I heard all the ‘tape worm’ jokes. My dad had 3 boys (plus sisters) mouths to feed and he said we were eating him out of ‘house and home’. A can of the beefaroni was good enough to keep me quite between meals and before bed, but that ravioli ? Never understood that. The siblings never complained about it, not that I recall at least. I’ll have to ask them. I was the oldest / biggest so in the survival of the fittest / first come, first served game, I usually won out. I feel so ashamed now thinking about it now.
    Spaghettios and meatballs was another. Tasted nothin’ like spaghetti but no matter, it filled that empty space between meals just the same.

    There is someone else within 100 yards of me who is playing with electronical thingies. How do I know this?

    Last night I was sitting outside with Natasha’s tablet to watch movies and had to pair my headphones. When scanning for Bluetooth devices then ESP32 and Windows CE came up on the list.

    Went back inside and checked none of my ESP32s were powered up! So not me.

    Also the Windows CE beacon was unusual as CE was phased out many years ago. It could be an old Palm Pilot or something.

    Anyway, there is someone out there who plays with the same toys I do. The project tomorrow is to try and make contact. I can set up a Bluetooth beacon with a name like ” Contact Me ” and a WiFi hotspot with a name that indicates I am a fellow traveler.

    Absolutely unhinged. He completely believes all the fringe lunacy about this administration. This goes beyond MSNBC and CNN, he is deep in the woods. They are programming these clowns and getting the expected results, except they haven’t succeeded yet.

    Right under it was another article with Obama claiming we don’t know the motive, even though the manifesto was already being talked about when he posted.

    Obviously this site supports Argentina, as depicted in the topic of this thread.

    I will have no further input here.

    Breaking my rule as to not commenting. Americans have absolutely no clue as to where countries are.

    Probably the South American country has no cigar production is because they are as far south as Canada is north.

    I knows geography.

    Supporting data, and there always is.

    South Africa, well the Southern part is not all sand and cactus and elephants and lions. It is more like Florida, with an even milder climate.

    Lush and green and a really nice place to live. Until the blacks took it over…..

    First of all Fuck Argentina and second Fuck Trump for not putting to rest any ” leaked” pentagon memo where it was alleged that the USA would support the Argentina take over of the Falklands because of the lack of UK co operation in the war against Iran.

    So, ‘simulation speak’ is allowed here ?
    BTW, anyone know if Scott Adams, may he rest in peace’ was, or was likely a member here ?

    I realize theres no way to know this unless he gave a hint or two as to his identity. Now that hes apparently removed from the (my) simulation, maybe one of the 2.0 may have known him personally and could just give a simple ‘yes/no’ without sharing any personal info. Probably a dumb question, I know but all the same…

    @ 4_Sticks:
    There’s no evidence that Scott Adams ever logged in here.

    A cat post.

    The weather is getting warmer here. The day time temperatures do not really affect me or the cats but.

    The night temperatures are rising, usually in the 70Fs and the cats no longer sleep on the bed and spend all night stealing the blankets.

    I actually miss that.

    Maybe I should stop being such a tight ass and turn the AC on full blast, 56F is a good temperature to gets back on the bed at night!

    Oh Electricity bill this month is $39, LOL fridge, computer and air fryer.
