It's kind of an inelegant setup with that pickup stuck on the top like that.. A guitar with an the ability for split channels and mixing on-board would be neat. They probably already have those around but it's not what very many players are looking for. OTOH, my guess is that in the future, most music will be generated by AI. You can kiss all this goodbye.

We are at the dawn of the age of machines that program themselves. My guess is that we'll have machines that don't mimic humans. They'll do things the way that's natural to themselves. A robot culture. It might be that humans will do what they always do when we meet another culture - adopt some practices into our own culture.

Gacy's painting would be delightfully naive if it wasn't so damn scary.

I'm more of a Jaco fan myself.

"comedy is hard"

"people always try to project their own darkness onto others"

"we are complicated"

And all this from a robotic looking guy with a German accent.

Followed by the bot's Dalek joke?

I am creeped out now.

Ringo Shiina is a singer/songwriter that put out a audacious rock CD when she was 20 years old in 1999. She has somehow remained true and uncompromised in her artistic vision ever since. She had the clout to able to put on large stage shows that she called "Expos."

Hawking was out again saying it may or it may not.

http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news...ephen-11453107

In October last year (2016), Prof Hawking said he believed AI would
either destroy or transform society.

Speaking at the launch of Cambridge University's artificial intelligence
centre last year Prof Hawking said: "I believe there is no deep
difference between what can be achieved by a biological brain and what
can be achieved by a computer.

"It therefore follows that computers can, in theory, emulate human
intelligence €“ and exceed it.

"Artificial intelligence is now progressing rapidly. Recent landmarks
such as self-driving cars, or a computer winning at the game of Go, are
signs of what is to come.

"Enormous levels of investment are pouring into this technology. The
achievements we have seen so far will surely pale against what the
coming decades will bring.€�

He went on: "The potential benefits of creating intelligence are huge.
We cannot predict what we might achieve, when our own minds are
amplified by AI.

"Perhaps with the tools of this new technological revolution, we will be
able to undo some of the damage done to the natural world by the last
one - industrialisation.

"And surely we will aim to finally eradicate disease and poverty. Every
aspect of our lives will be transformed, In short, success in creating
AI, could be the biggest event in the history of our civilisation."

He added: "But it could also be the last, unless we learn how to avoid
the risks. Alongside the benefits, AI will also bring dangers, like
powerful autonomous weapons, or new ways for the few to oppress the many."

Mankind is racing towards what could be the means of it's extinction and there's nothing that can be done. Perhaps this is the natural order of things.. Technology advances until it reaches a point where it destroys the civilization that created it. It would really be something if we vanished in a single night and day - like the Krell did. The truth is that in the end, nobody can stop the advancement of technology.

Please enjoy your waffle. I cooked up some Cacique Mexican chorizo yesterday because it was $1.25 a package. That seemed pretty reasonable to me. I had better read up on how to cook this stuff because mostly, I was left with some weird ass paste. I mixed it up so I could load it up into a tortilla. It's a tasty product - but weird.

And the truth is, as Plato reminds us, that this has all happened before
in Atlantis and Lemuria for example.

Oh, don't forget Gobeklitepi...

http://www.ancient-origins.net/news-...klitepe-003441

€œThe scene on the obelisk unearthed in Göbeklitepe could be construed as
the first pictograph because it depicts an event thematically€� explained
Director of the Şanlıurfa Museum, Müslüm Ercan, to the Hurriyet Daily
News . Ercan is leading the excavation at Göbeklitepe. €œIt depicts a
human head in the wing of a vulture and a headless human body under the
stela.

http://www.todayifoundout.com/index....-gobekli-tepe/

First, unlike its arid landscape today, 11,000 years ago, the Sanliurfa
region was a €œparadise€� that teemed with game, fruit, nut trees and wild
grains, all readily available to collect without the need for farming.
Second, archaeologists, who have been digging at the site for nearly 20
years, have yet to find any evidence of the hearths, cooking, houses and
garbage dumps found in the typical Neolithic settlement. Third, rather,
they found 100,000 bits of the bones of wild game animals like boar,
gazelle, sheep and deer, as well as a variety of bird species; as one
expert said: €œIt was pretty clear we were dealing with a hunter-gatherer
site.€�

Building on this evidence, the new theory turns the Neolithic revolution
on its head: rather than monument building as a consequence of
agriculture and settlement, it became the impetus for it. Proponents
theorize that the enormous number of people required to build the
complex, and who chose to remain near after it was completed, required
more food than could reliably be collected with hunting and gathering.
As one expert opined, €œI think they began cultivating wild grasses on
the hills€� in order to feed the masses. Recent findings from other
disciplines seem to back this theory up.
....

In the final analysis, proponents of the new theory conclude the
interesting notion that, based on the evidence at hand at the Gobekli
Tepe dig, €œreligion motivated people to take up farming.€�

There are 2 kinds of chorizo, soft and hard.

Both have their merits.

Soft works real well with scrambled eggs and papas.

What you have there was begging for eggs and small cubed taters.

The texture is indeed weird and I was baffled the first time I cooked
some up.

But it was so hot even the dog gave me a gimlet eyed look.

This was the soft Mexican style which is pretty unique stuff. My problem is the stuff didn't look anything like the video. I thought the whole thing was going to liquify into a red, greasy, slime. For the most part, it did. Anyway, I added some eggs and ate it. It was good but I'm going to need a better product if I get it again. I'll look for a different brand.

On a happier note, we had some scallop poke yesterday. We ate it in the car and it was a very good thing. The scallops were large and uncooked. I like it better than cooked scallops.

https://www.amazon.com/photos/share/...gL7Yo8wE6XCTgA

I got a pork butt now up at bat. I don't even know what I'm going to do with it. I can make shoyu pork, or kalua pork, or sweet sour pork, or whatever.. I'm leaning towards whatever. In this case, that would be pastele stew.

That ain't bad looking, a bit dark maybe, but chorizo's really vary.

It has an almost chipotle hue to it - which is a nice addition too, btw.

Chomp-ready.

I think some real creativity is going on there.

So I guess the pic above was pastele?

Check out this pastele fries dish with cheese on it:

Came from:

Fresh Catch

Once again we see foods from 2 different cultures starting to meld a bit...

You could swerve that here and make a lot of friends!

That orange stuff was not chicken curry although it certainly does resemble it. Thanks for pointing that out. That strips in there that look like chicken is the scallop mantle. It's some sort of muscle that surrounds the big scallop muscle. My understanding is that part is thrown away on the mainland. The raw scallop is pretty soft and the mantle provides a pleasant contrasting chewiness. They should not be throwing the scallop mantle away.

The pastele stew is getting to be very popular on this rock. You're not likely to find the dish anywhere but here. I'm still trying to get to an understanding as to the essence of pastele stew i.e., I order the dish whenever I see it. The best I've had is at Masa & Joyce in our little town. My research is a work in progress.

I've never seen pastele fries before. What I have seen is furikake fries. It's fries with a mayo type sauce and furikake. The kids always order it when we eat at the Fresh Catch in our little town. I think most people on the mainland would dig it.

I thought the whole thing was going to liquify into a red, greasy, slime. For the most part, it did. Anyway, I added some eggs and ate it. It was good but I'm going to need a better product if I get it again. I'll look for a different brand.

Aha!

Now that looks more like it!

The poke must have a fruit juice in it that resulted in that coloration?

I'm all over those!

Had to look it up 1st tho:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furikake

Furikake (振り掛� / �り��) is a dry Japanese seasoning[1] meant to be
sprinkled on top of cooked rice, vegetables, and fish. It typically
consists of a mixture of dried fish, sesame seeds, chopped seaweed,
sugar, salt, and monosodium glutamate.[2][3] Other flavorful ingredients
such as katsuobushi (sometimes indicated on the package as bonito), or
okaka (bonito flakes moistened with soy sauce and dried again),
freeze-dried salmon particles, shiso, egg, powdered miso, vegetables,
etc., are often added to the mix.[3]

Furikake is often brightly colored and flaky. It can have a slight fish
or seafood flavoring, and is sometimes spicy. It can be used in Japanese
cooking for pickling foods and for rice balls (onigiri). Since 2003,
furikake has increasingly gained acceptance in the US (particularly in
Hawaii and the West Coast) as a seasoning for baked or fried fish,[4]
raw fish salads [5] and snack foods such as furikake party mix.[6]

Outside Japan, furikake can be found in most Asian groceries (near the
katsuobushi) or in the ethnic food aisle of some major supermarkets.


Mmmm!
