« Last post by roamer_1 on Today at 10:08:09 pm »Because of just what you've outlined here, I clicked on the Netflix "DOCUMENTARY" category and have become addicted.
It's the only genre that haven't been corrupted by Barack and Big Mike's hands...usually 3 or 4 episodes...how they gather evidence and garner confessions.
Have to get 'SOMETHING' for my $18 @ month.
It's just strange to me now. and uninteresting drivel - And this from a guy who is a big fan of crappy B grade movies with lousy FX... It leaves more for my imagination. But now, the plots are crap... Even to me.
But it comes at a price too... In selecting exactly what I want all the time, and sinking into my preferences, I find myself calcifying . It's getting damn hard for me to find new and exciting things to bend my mind around, returning over and again to the same things.
I actually like listening to Hank FM again these days, for that reason... I have no control over what the DJ is going to play (within the Country category)... Prior to now, I had done much the same thing with my music, hitting a threshold somewhere in the 00s, and being largely ignorant of any music newer than that.
Now I get a little bit of that and have expanded my musical palate to include a few new artists. I would like to find some way to do that in film too. But no such thing exists according to my tastes.

by Michael Bartiromo and Addy Bink - 05/06/24 2:14 PM ET
(NEXSTAR) — Donald Trump was found to be in criminal contempt Monday after the judge in his hush-money trial determined the former president had violated his gag order once again.
Judge Juan M. Merchan ordered Trump to pay a $1,000 fine — marking the tenth such fine that Trump has been issued for violating an order that bars what he can say about those involved in the case, including witnesses and jurors.
The latest ruling came in response to comments Trump made on April 22, during which Trump claimed on a conservative news program that the trial was being rushed, and the jury selection had been “unfair.”
“You know [the judge is] rushing the trial like crazy,” Trump said during the April 22 news segment, according to the judge’s decision. “Nobody’s ever seen a thing go like this. That jury was picked so fast — 95% Democrats. The area’s mostly all Democrat. You think of it as a — just a purely Democrat area. It’s a very unfair situation. That I can tell you.”

by Brett Samuels - 05/06/24 5:07 PM ET
Former President Trump on Monday suggested he would be willing to go to jail over repeated violations of his gag order imposed by a New York judge.
“This judge has given me a gag order and said you’ll go to jail if you violate it,” Trump told reporters after court adjourned for the day in his hush money trial. “And frankly, you know what, our Constitution is much more important than jail. It’s not even close. I’ll do that sacrifice any day.”
“But what’s happening here is a disgrace, and the appellate courts ought to get involved,” Trump added.
Judge Juan Merchan on Monday found Trump violated a gag order for a 10th time and ordered him to pay $1,000 for attacking jurors in his hush money criminal trial, just days after the judge ruled on an earlier set of gag order violations.
Merchan warned Trump that future violations could be punishable by incarceration.

Health/Education / Scientists tried to give people COVID — and failed

When Paul Zimmer-Harwood volunteered to be intentionally infected with SARS-CoV-2, he wasn’t sure what to expect. He was ready for a repeat of his first brush with COVID-19, through a naturally acquired infection that gave him influenza-like symptoms. But he hoped his immunity would help him feel well enough to use the indoor bicycle trainer that he had brought into quarantine.
It turned out that Zimmer-Harwood, a PhD student at University of Oxford, UK, had nothing to worry about. Neither he nor any of the 35 other people who participated in the ‘challenge’ trial actually got COVID-19.
The study’s results, published on 1 May in Lancet Microbe, raise questions about the usefulness of COVID-19 challenge trials for testing vaccines, drugs and other therapeutics. “If you can’t get people infected, then you can’t test those things,” says Tom Peacock, a virologist at Imperial College London.
