Instead of watching the SOTU address and drinking, I'm just drinking.

I think that's healthier.

What word did Eru Illúvatar speak to give the Vision created out of the the Ainulindalë physical form?

@holon42
Upset me? Not at all. You'll find the answer in the Silmarillion, maybe some other websites.

Where is the land of Aman found after the Akallabêth (Downfall of Númenor)?

What substance were the Silmarils originally meant to contain?

@White_Rabbit - I know you'll know this immediately, so would you mind giving others a crack at it first?

In times like these, the only correct course of action is to throw a light switch rave.

The random ethernet disconnects from my desktop PC have been giving me fits lately. I'm pretty good at this stuff, but I'm honestly at a loss here.

So far, I have:
- reset all network hardware
- reset Win10 network stack
- tested / changed cables
- checked that power management is disabled
- upgraded drivers
- switched from Intel dual port GB adapter to onboard realtek; repeated all of above
- upgraded router firmware (DDWRT)

Still getting random periodic disconnects. Suggestions?

This is an opinion, I certainly could be wrong.

The war on Hamas, must continue. But aren't you a peace loving Buddhist? Yes. Yet also a realist. Do I negotiate with a cancer tumor? Do I give it one of my organs? Or do I use the tools of modern medicine to keep the cancer from doing more harm to my system. No. I fight like hell. Will I rid my body of cancer completely? No. But I will disarm the cancer. And I will poison many innocent cells, with chemotherapy to do so.

Do not reply.

Well funded public education would solve most problems in most countries.

@Render
How dire is the situation for Ukraine right now?

Can we send Mike Johnson there permanently with a large ammo shipment?

Some orchestra instructions for playing Mahler

--Allmahlich in das Hauptzeitmass ubergehen – Do not look at the conductor

Im Anfang sehr gemaechlich – In intense inner torment

Alle Betonungen sehr zart - With more intense inner torment

Getheilt (geth.) – Out of tune

Von hier an in sehr allmaehlicher aber stetiger Steigerung bis zum
Zeichen – From this point on, the spit valves should be emptied with ever-increasing emotion

@voltronic

Never give up, never give in, NEVER. 👊

That is all.

^ @phase2 I meant to tag you on this the other day. Might be useful to you.
