We’re Never Going Back to the 1950s

The year 2020 shattered America’s shared reality.

by DEREK THOMPSON

DECEMBER 16, 2020

***

Twenty years ago, the sociologist Robert Putnam in Bowling Alone used the decline of bowling leagues since the middle of the 20th century to symbolize America’s declining social engagement. This year, he published a sequel of sorts, The Upswing, in which he identified more stray threads of our social unraveling: in lower marriage rates, church attendance, and trust in government; in falling membership in all chapter-based associations; collapsing social trust among young adults; and even a decrease in mentions of community versus identity in novels and nonfiction books.

But no measure of communitarian pessimism could have prepared Putnam for the circumstances of the past nine months. America’s bowling alleys haven’t just depopulated; they’ve gone dark, along with thousands of churches, restaurants, bars, cafés, gyms, theaters, and almost every other physical space that could preserve or nurture a physical community.

Mirroring this civic fragmentation, America’s media and entertainment industry has spun apart, and the spinning is accelerating. On December 3, the film studio Warner Bros. announced that subscribers of the company’s digital streaming service HBO Max will be able to watch all of its 2021 film releases at home, on the same day that they’re released in theaters. The movies affected by this decision aren’t humble indies. We’re talking Dune and The Matrix 4—the sort of films that, if they were released exclusively in theaters next year, might earn a domestic box office roughly equal to the GDP of Micronesia.

Like Putnam’s beloved bowling alleys, cinemas are an example of the decline of semiweekly gatherings in the United States—even if they’re less chatty establishments. In the 1940s, the average American bought more than 30 movie tickets a year, regularly packing into theaters with scores of strangers. In the past few years, that figure fell below four. In 2020, movie tickets sold per-person will fall below one—possibly for the first time since the late 1800s. The decision by Warner Bros. will likely encourage other entertainment companies, such as Disney, to funnel more of their marquee content to streaming services in the next few years. And the result could be a death spiral for movie theaters as we know them, as the film industry continues its shift from a public, ticketed affair to a private, living-room experience.

Home entertainment is fracturing as well, and along with it the communal-while-alone possibility of a shared popular culture. Since 2010, 33 million households have either cut the cord or never signed up for cable TV in the first place. The traditional cable bundle is slowly dying, and its death is fertilizing new subscription-only streaming services, such as HBO Max, Disney+, Peacock from NBCUniversal, and Quibi (RIP), which join a landscape crowded with Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Hulu, not to mention user-generated video platforms including YouTube and TikTok.

It would be hackish to accuse Netflix or Warner Bros. of being the main accelerants of American loneliness. But the fact is that cinematic entertainment, which was born as the ultimate communal ritual, an experience whose technology required simultaneity and togetherness, has become the ultimate personal activity, an incomprehensibly long spectrum of different stories mostly consumed in a state of solitude.

This media shift—from the scarce and communal to the abundant and privatized—also describes the evolution of the news industry. In the past 20 years, newspaper circulation, advertising revenue, and employment have cratered. But overall, news—that is, sources of new information, of varying truthiness—didn’t decline; it exploded. The web created a phalanx of news publishers, not just websites but also Facebook pages, Instagram personalities, newsletters, podcasts, and so on; at the same time, Google and Facebook duopolized digital advertising, creating a situation where publishers were multiplying as advertising declined.

In ecology, the term niche partitioning describes the way that competing species become hyper-specialized in an attempt to co-exist in an environment with scarce resources. I think that’s what’s happening in the news industry. As the number of competing publishers increases, it makes sense for each of them to carve out an ecological niche. This niches-get-riches race leads logically to a set of more outlets that embrace a more unabashedly partisan perspective—just as they did in the late 1800s.

One might assume that polarization is what happens to people cut off from information. But the truth is closer to the opposite: More information means more polarization. Research shows that access to broadband internet in the U.S. has in many cases increased various measures of polarization, as the web introduces voters to a bigger menu of partisan news from which voters select the sites that match their political tastes.

We’ve seen this phenomenon accelerate in 2020. Four years ago, most people would have said there were three major cable news networks: the center-left one (CNN), the liberal alternative (MSNBC), and the conservative juggernaut (Fox News). But in the past few months, the conservative-news monolith has shattered. Since the election, Newsmax TV and the One America News Network have stepped up to backfill President Donald Trump’s election-fraud lies with programming from an alternate reality. And behold, niche partitioning works: Last week, Newsmax rode the election-conspiracy story to its first-ever ratings win over Fox. Because Trump devotees are going to buy tickets to whatever media universe offers the best narrative, networks are competing to tell the Trumpiest tale.

With weekly religious attendance at low ebb and live TV in structural decline, national elections are arguably the only activity that Americans do together in shared time. But shared time is not shared reality. Led by the president, Republican lawmakers have petitioned to sabotage the results of the election, based on fantastic conspiracy theories. The GOP fever dream, which is credulously reproduced across Trump-friendly media, is clearly contagious: More than 80 percent of Trump voters believe that Biden’s win is illegitimate, a figure corresponding to about 60 million people. There is nothing unique about reality and fantasy blending together in politics. But the speed and severity with which Trump’s “Stop the Steal!” mind virus has infected the GOP is the sign of a compromised civic immune system. A far-right cohort has been effectively quarantined from reality in one corner of our honeycombed media landscape.

There is no going back to the 1950s. We will never again be enfolded by those bespoke mid-century circumstances, the scarce broadcasts and broadsheets. The dividing forces are too strong and too many. The film experience pushed out across millions of flatscreens; the live-television networks splintering into millions of digital entertainment queues; the news dissolving into innumerable political realities: One by one, these are not evil trends. But they add up. Or, more aptly, they divide. They individuate.

People ask me if I’m optimistic about 2021, and the answer is that, in a way, I’m ecstatically optimistic. The economy will reopen, and life will reopen. People will come out of their homes; they will send their kids to school; they will hug and kiss and live. But underneath the high tide of economic growth and social normalization, I think we’ll feel something else, an eerie undertow of isolation and anxiety.

“The definition of community is ‘where you keep showing up,’” said someone I met, whose name I’ve forgotten, back in the days when it was normal to meet new people whose names you could forget. I haven’t forgotten that line, though: Community is where you keep showing up. What a lovely idea. But where do people keep showing up, these days? Nowhere. Not the office, not the COVID-aerosolized bars and gyms. A lot of people have spent a year finding community via a glowing screen in a room they never leave.

The empty bowling alleys and movie theaters; the infinity buffet of entertainment and partisan media; the dissolution of a shared American reality—these are distinct yet connected phenomena. Digital technology has spawned a choose-your-own-adventure mediascape, which has flooded the electorate with alternate realities, at the same time that its community ties wither. America is coming apart, and these pieces will not be easily reassembled.

[softgrungeprophet]

Okay, I’ve decided I don’t want my Official Writing Blog ™ to get bogged down by negative posts or negative reviews, or things I’m not ssssuuuuuper feeling strong on (of which this piece is both), so...

I’m gonna put this post I made about my qualms with Eddie’s line from issue #10 about being white (and thus privileged)... right here:

----------------------

This post contains spoilers for the plot of the current Venom series (Cates/Stegman), as well as Web of Venom: Carnage Born (Cates/Beyruth).

----------------------

I was going to write a long post about my criticisms of the current Venom run, written by Donny Cates, and how I feel the story and pacing fall short.

It turns out, it's difficult to do that when you have a problem with almost every aspect of a story.

So I wrote this post instead, which is much shorter and less about why it feels disconnected as a Venom comic, and more about an underlying problem in the comics industry.

In issue #10 of Venom (Cates/Stegman), Eddie Brock mentions that he benefits from white privilege—"I was young, white, and the son of a rich and powerful man in the community... what do you think happened?"

(Context: as of Venom (2018) issue #10, Eddie's backstory has been retconned so that he killed a child in a drunk driving incident as a teenager.)

For the purposes of practicality and honesty, we will treat this as not just white privilege, but the privilege specifically of a white male.

On the surface this comes off as an innocuous little aside, a neat explanation rooted in truth; and for Eddie Brock to say it doesn't seem entirely out of place. It's not incorrect; it's not even entirely out of character despite Eddie's tendency, historically, to shift blame onto others... but it immediately dug under my skin to bother me in a way I could not place—until, of course, I realized...

To include such a line in a comic which has so far only featured the phantasm of a female character, retconned out of existence into some kind of specter of Eddie Brock's delusions...

To include such a line in a comic which has so far included two characters of color; one of whom is Miles Morales and thus untouchable by the narrative in any meaningful way...

Well, there's a certain irony, there.

(The other character of color in question is Rex Strickland, an old African-American man and a veteran. Rex is actually a pretty interesting character, but in the end... he dies. Not just that, it turns out he had actually died long ago and this Rex, this singular black character other than Miles, is in fact not even a human being. So the original Rex was already dead, and this Klyntar facsimile of Rex is now also dead.)

So, thus far our track record is: One female character mentioned only so she can be erased from existence, and two black characters, both male, one of whom Cates managed to shelve not once but twice without even bringing him back from the dead first.

Not to mention the Web of Venom: Carnage Born (Cates/Beyruth) tie-in, in which Tanis Nieves, a prominent female medical professional and host to the Scorn symbiote...

Wait for it...

She dies.

I don't know about you, but that doesn't sit right with me.

But look, this line about his white privilege! Isn't this so perceptive? In this story focusing on the masculine agony of this blue eyed, white man and his... blue eyed white brother-or-son... and his abusive white male father... and the antics of... another white man... (The Maker) Not to mention Cletus Kasady's prominence as, supposedly, an upcoming villain (yet another white man). Oh and Knull, while not technically human, sure looks like a white man to me.

Hmmm...

Perceptive...

From a white male author, on a book made in an industry heavily dominated by white male authors—in a series which, if I go off the top of my head, has not had a female creative lead working on a main-series comic in roughly twenty-five years (Ann Nocenti, of The Madness (1994) infamy)...

I'll hazard a guess based on common sense and the history of the comics industry and say that there aren't many more creatives of color working on main-series Venom comics, either. That the majority of Venom writers, pencillers, and inkers, have probably been white men, with a few exceptions here and there for creators like Larry Hama. But the thing about race is that, even more than gender, you cannot tell by looking and you cannot tell by names. So I'm not going to pretend as if I really, truly know.

Let me rewind a little bit.

There has not been a single female author working on a main Venom series in over two full decades, and if my suspicions are right, it's been around the same amount of time since an author of color penned a main-series Venom comic as well (that being Larry Hama, in the mid-90's).

In this context, the single line about Eddie's privilege as the white son of a wealthy white man, in a single issue of a run with disappointing representation compared to the fairly diverse series of the previous, oh... six years?

It doesn't do a lot for me.  

But of course, even those diverse series fall short in that they still lack women and people of color in the writers' seats, the artists' seats... in the seats calling the shots.

As much as I enjoyed 2016's Carnage (Conway/Perkins) I do find it telling that the only characters to die were characters of color, and while I enjoyed Venom: Space Knight (Thompson/Olivetti) a great deal, I do believe that Robbie Thompson is doing the bare minimum in his writing—he is one of the few male authors I feel does really well, but even then... That should be normal, and expected, and does not change the overwhelmingly white, male history of Venom creators.

There are side stories with much more varied creators; spin-offs and tie-ins that are either considered non-canonical or are often unrelated to the main series at all... They can be fantastic. They can do amazing things. But I find it telling that this is where the female authors, the authors of color, the queer authors, are so often relegated.

It is only here where we find occasional drift, toward creators who are often otherwise excluded—writers such as Nnedi Okorafor and Saladin Ahmed, artist duo Gurihiru (Chifuyu Sasaki and Naoko Kawano)...

It is sparse. It reminds me that many of us are not welcome in this space. Never in the serious, important series. Always in the comics for children, the side-stories, the alternate universes.

Is this Donny Cates' fault? Something he has control over?

No, of course not.

Could he use his privilege to uplift others? To offer one of his multiple seats to someone else?

Perhaps.

Regardless, the result is that Cates' line, spoken through Eddie as his vessel, comes across as tone-deaf and insincere at best, considering his own privileges in a series so dominated by others just like him, and considering his poor track record with female characters, characters of color, and a textually queer relationship.

Did you know: (2014)

The new sleek $100 bills released by the U.S. Federal Reserve on October 8, 2013, are the design and creation of then, 43-year-old African American artist, Brian Thompson. Thompson walks in his father’s footsteps, who served as a cylinder maker at the U.S. Bureau of Engraving and Printing in D.C. His father saw a call for artists and knew his son would fit the bill.

Taking Care of Your Motorcycle

There is nothing like riding a bike on the open street. For the majority of the Earth, the bike or 2-wheel scooter has become the most typical type of motorized transportation accessible. Approximately 200 million bikes are in use worldwide (in comparison to nearly 600 million automobiles ) and nearly 60 percent of them have been in Asia and the Far East - China and India both have over 35 million bikes and motorized scooters in usage. Compare this to the United States in which the vehicle is dominant (roughly 30 percent of the planet's automobiles are here in the USA ). In reality, the world's biggest manufacturer of two-wheel vehicles is not Harley Davidson or Suzuki, it is Hero Motocorp, located in India. Kind of little indication of the way the planet is changing, is not it?

While we are not experts on the area of motorcycles from the culture of the other nations, it is clear here in the united states, the bike has a exceptional niche in our pop culture understanding. This location was cemented in the 1960s with films like Easy Rider and Hunter S. Thompson's novel on the Hells Angels motorcycle gang at the mid-1960s. Harley Davidson's earnings are bolstered with their distinctive marketing and advertising appeal to how bicycles feel and look on the open street. Harley even optimized the specific sound of the engine. Past Harley Davidson, motorcycle sales in the USA now are approximately 1 million units per year. So plenty of people nowadays are hitting the open road and feeling the wind in their face.

While bikes and scooters are fuel-efficient and a great deal of pleasure to ride, they are not always affordable. High-end bicycles such as a Harley can quickly rival exactly what it costs for a new vehicle. That is a good deal of money spent in just two wheels. Therefore, in case you've got a scooter or motorcycle, it is important to look after your investment so that it is going to keep you riding for a long time to come.

This report covers information and ideas from professionals to direct you in the steps that you want to follow to look after your bicycle and keep it working its best for as long as you can. We'll speak about regions of the bicycle which you have to pay regular attention to and why. We are going to discuss the ideal fuels to work with and how to store your bicycle.

YOUR OWNER'S MANUAL - THE ESSENTIAL GUIDE TO SUCCESS

Adhering to the operator's guide is, quite honestly, fairly underrated when it comes to making sure a long and productive ownership expertise of your bike (and your vehicle, also ). However they compose owner's manuals for a motive. The guide will Provide you the best information from the maker on significant topics like

Everything You Have to get repaired, how frequently, and when you should schedule the support the Sort of oil and fluids required by your bicycle Any particular approaches you can undertake to maintain your bike running its Very Best For all those folks that are heavy into DIY and much more mechanically-inclined, you will find"full service" guides available which essentially tells a mechanic they should learn to reconstruct the whole bicycle from scratchdown to these esoteric information regarding the number of pounds of force to tighten a bolt on the bicycle.

Whether you are among these gearheads or merely an ordinary biker who wishes to maintain your bicycle in its very best shape, you require a copy of your owner's manual and you need to check it frequently. The investment will be well worth it. have a peek at this web-site bike price in bangladesh 2019

PROPER MAINTENANCE SCHEDULES

Manufacturers recommend that bicycles be serviced in specific mileage or time periods. The proposed maintenance periods are recorded in the operator's guide to assist owners and owners establish a sensible and proper maintenance program. Most bikes made after 1980 are fairly reliable if maintained correctly. To a point, the high reliability of the bikes has worked to the disadvantage of several riders. Some cyclists are lulled into thinking that bicycles are like modern automobiles and need little maintenance. Modern bicycles require less upkeep than they did in the 60's and 70's but they still require a good deal more care than a vehicle.

BREAKING YOUR MOTORCYCLE IN FROM NEW

When you put out the money to purchase a new cycle, then you definitely would like it to begin out its life perfect. This usually means you've got to"break it in" properly. This will prevent issues with your bike in the future. Just what you have to do in this regard is dependent upon the manufacturer recommendations on your bicycle, which can be seen in your guide. It might be as mild as being advised to perform"mild riding" for the first hundred kilometers of life, to much more complicated and involved break-in protocols which involve forcing the bicycle at particular speeds and motor RPMs for certain periods of time, and which can change and subtract from performing something through the initial few hundred miles into doing something else to another million.

No matter your owner's manual claims for this is exactly what you have to do. And you need to perform it. It'll save you headaches in the future. You've got enough headaches on your life with no one out of not following these tips.

THE ESSENTIAL OIL CHANGE STEP

You need to be well knowledgeable about the notion that changing your oil within the suggested guidelines is the only best thing you can do to any motor on any type of automobile. This clearly includes motorcycles.

It is equally as important to modify your bike oil on a regular basis because these motors have a tendency to work more difficult - in greater rates and RPMs - than automobiles and truck motors. Your owner's manual will have the ideal recommendation for the correct oil to work with. It is going to also let you know how frequently you have to change it. Discount these recommendations in your own peril.

Proceed too long between adjustments along with your oil will not protect the metal components from wear as efficiently as it should. Bear in mind that oil includes additives like acid neutralizers that are utilized to safeguard the engine surfaces out of build-up of harmful contaminants and combustion products (such as soot and acid). Therefore, in the event that you go too much time between changing your oil, then these additives will wear out and stop protecting the motor.

On the reverse side, change your oil too frequently and you will be flushing money down the drain. It's true that you can change your oil every 500 kilometers"just to be more safe", but what is the purpose? You would only be wasting money by being too cautious.

AIR FILTER MAINTENANCE

An internal combustion engine takes a continuous intake stream of air to supply the oxygen required to support combustion of the gas. A clean air filter is essential for making certain the atmosphere which goes into your motor does not bring in overseas contaminants and materials that may do damage to your motor. Dust and particles and dirt in the surroundings may get trapped in the oil movie or on metal surfaces in which they behave as abrasives and harm the valves, pipe and inner bearings.

Cleaning or changing the air filter can help stop this. How many times you ought to do this is ordered by your owner's guide (there it is again). Additionally, it is always a fantastic idea to boost the frequency by which you change the filter should you ride your bike a good deal in dusty surroundings. Clearly a dusty environment raises the rate in which your filter becomes dirty and too plugged.

Last, a fresh air filter will also enable your gas mileage. This really is a bonus that everyone enjoys. It will not increase your mileage by 20 percent or anything like this, but you also do typically receive a little mileage incentive for being diligent on your upkeep within this region.

RIDE UNDER PRESSURE

Tire pressure may be the difference between wasting petrol and riding or money in your finest. Tires will be the contact points on your street and affect so many things on your driving adventure. Your fuel mileage remains high and your bicycle handling is greatest when your tires are in the appropriate pressure. Tire pressure that's too low causes a lot of this tire's surface to get hold of the street at any particular time. This produces excess drag and drops your gasoline mileage. Additionally, it puts pressure on the side walls of their tires and rates that the use of the tire. So be certain that you're not riding too low. But do not increase the tire pressure too large, either. It's correct that high tire pressure provides you a mileage increase. But go too far in this way (some people today believe if a small amount of something is great, a great deal of it needs to be good ) and you also won't find the best grip in wet weather, which is certainly harmful. And tires which are overinflated use more rapidly also, but at the center of the tread, rather than on either side.

There is no rocket science - only check your tire pressure once weekly using a gauge.

KEEP YOUR BEARINGS (GREASED) AND CHECK YOUR SUSPENSION PARTS

Individuals who have dirt bikes are familiar with the tendency of greasing wheel bearings, because dirt bikes require a great deal of grease virtually in the moment they have already been bought. Street bikes do not have as many vulnerable bearings as dirt bikes do, however they do require a wholesome dose of dirt in regions such as suspension linkages. Assessing them and after routine greasing patterns will make these vulnerable parts last longer.

Any fantastic care routine should involve assessing the health of significant bearings for indications of wear. It is vital to get this done since these bearings wear out fast when they begin to go. Steering stem bearings must be assessed (increase the front wheels off the floor on a rack and inspect the texture of this turn). Any strange sense or extra loose play in this test may be a indication that these bearings will need to be replaced.

Assess your bicycle's swing arm. The pivot point ought to be tight and it must have no side-to-side play within it. Same thing for front and back axles. Any drama in these places necessitates replacement of those bearings.

In conclusion, check all of your bearings and bolts frequently. Grease them often to make them last longer, and place anti-seize coating onto them once you reinstall your bolts (swing arm, linkage, engine mount). Paying attention to those essential components will stop larger problems at a subsequent moment.

WATCHING YOUR DRIVETRAIN

We have already discussed the value of fresh oil and a clean air filter on your bike's health. But another vital part which operates with these parts is the string, belt or shaft that permits your transmission to push your bicycle's wheel - that the drive rail. Which one of them you have is dependent upon the sort of bike you've got.

Maintaining your drivetrain healthful is fairly simple but important to perform. Assess your chain and sprockets for use. Ensure to don't have any cracks on your own belt. Examine the rotating housing and add oil every so often. Care to this crucial area pretty much entails monitoring to guarantee the lubrication is sufficient. Do not ignore this. You can not go anywhere if your drive train is out of sequence.

BATTERY CHARGE

If your drive train is in great working order, you won't go anywhere if your battery is dead. Batteries drain gradually from fresh, therefore it is your responsibility to make the most of the entire lifetime you're going to get from it. There are two sorts of batteries you may elect for: a sealed battery and an enclosed battery. Exposed batteries need you to inspect the liquid remedy inside every so often. In case the solution becomes too low, top it off. This keeps the inner plates from becoming exposed and sporting out the battery too fast. Should you use a sealed battery, then you won't need to be worried about it.

RIDING WISELY

Beyond the easy things you are able to do to create your bicycle last more, the best way to run the bicycle also goes a long way in this aspect. An automobile driver that squeals his tires, pops his clutch and slams on his brakes is not likely to have long life from his clutch or transmission and brakes and is very likely to be spending a great deal of time together with his friendly neighborhood mechanic. The exact same is true for bike riding. Riding the bike tough, not feathering the clutch whilst altering, not backing off the throttle at the ideal time - those will wear out your transmission fairly fast. In precisely the exact same vein, both accelerating and braking in controlled manners help out too and is going to keep you from the repair store for more periods of time. You've got enough time to spend less on those times without squandering it by wearing basically bicycle parts out too fast.

FUEL SYSTEM MAINTENANCE - ESSENTIAL Measures

The gas system is an integral internal system which guarantees your bike has its essential life of fuel delivered to the ideal place in the ideal level for the very best performance. As with other areas of the bicycle, the fuel system demands just a bit of looking after, however it does not need to be hard or labour intensive, it is more preventative in character.

Acquiring the FUEL RIGHT

Fuel is rather often overlooked as a sort of preventative maintenance on a bike. Whenever you're referring to petrol and gas systems, you need to always think about the gas filter. It is sensible to look at the fuel filter frequently in the event that you've got you to make certain that it's not clogged, seems clean and is apparent. It's strongly suggested that you replace fuel filters every 2 decades, or earlier if you have some indications of gas. While you're at it, check the bicycle gas lines for climate damage and breaking. Replace these lines immediately if any damage is located.

Normally, untreated gas retains its very best combustion quality in storage for approximately six months; less when the gasoline includes ethanol. Things that cause gas fuels to reduce their caliber are exposure to light and air, and also the accumulation of water in the surroundings. Air and light cause chemical reactions (oxidation) to happen in the gas, making discolored gas with dim residue collected on the base of the gas may or storage tank. These reactions occur faster in warm weather.

Ethanol fuels also have the dilemma of pulling water from the atmosphere and to the gas. This is a result of the compound nature of the vapor itself. Once enough water is consumed, the dissolved ethanol m ay begin to fall from solution in a procedure called"phase separation". The free ethanol blends together with the water and sinks into the bottom of the tank (since ethanol and water is thicker than petrol ). While this occurs, you've got any issues which are best prevented, such as leftover gasoline that's stripped of its octane rating, or your gas line sucking a water/ethanol mix rather than sucking gasoline.

The best method to protect against these storage issues is to see to the gas with the additive. However, in order to work, any gas additive has to be inserted while the gas is in great form. When the gas goes bad, there aren't any products available on the marketplace which may restore it into good condition, along with the gas has to be lost at the point. At best, bad functionality and in the worst, serious engine damage may lead to deteriorated gas is burnt on your motor. A fantastic gas additive therapy can double or triple the life span of gas and is going to have a beneficial impact on the functioning of your motorcycle.

What's more, the ethanol found in the majority of on-road gasoline is extremely corrosive and can actually dissolve the aluminum on your carburetor as time passes. A fantastic gas additive blended in with the gas should coating and protect the carburetor and fuel system parts, protecting them in this procedure. This is essential if your bike is in storage for a long time period.

WHEN YOUR BIKE SITS AROUND - BURNING YOUR RESERVE

Also keep in mind that, when parking the bike for any elongated amount of time, to turn the petcock to the off position. This prevents any gas possibly flooding or leaking the carburetor. The gas that's drawn in if you alter your petcock setting from"Normal" to"Reserve" stems in another portion of the gas tank, typically in the very bottom. The gasoline found in this component of the tank is much more likely to be more phase-separated gas containing greater concentrations of vapor, water and anything foreign matter and hefty deposits which would have gathered over time. The possibility here is the very first time you want your book fuel, your bike just stops dead since this polluted gas would be drawn to the carburetor or fuel injection system. A fantastic preventative remedy for this predicament is to ride the book setting with a complete tank of gas on occasion. The ratio of polluted to great gas will probably be so modest as to not be as much of a difficulty. You are more inclined to burn off anything bad gasoline is at the book without almost as many issues. This may also indicate that the day that you want your book, it is going to work just like you want it to.

STORING YOUR MOTORCYCLE

When planning to keep a bike for an elongated time period, you need to take certain measures that will lower the odds of getting particular storage-related issues. These items are a few recommendations for measures to consider before you set the cycle off for storage. This will guarantee that if another riding season arrives, your bike is going to be free of troubles and prepared to go:

Change the oil and filter.

When the bike is liquid-cooled, make confident the cooling process is full of a 50% antifreeze solution to protect against the cooling system parts from freezing.

Fill out your fuel tank with gas and add a fuel stabilizer. There are quite a few alternatives for this, some better than others. A fantastic gas additive will stop rust to gas system parts (particularly from ethanol) and stop the fuel from deteriorating during storage.

Drain the carburetor if potential or flip the gas petcock to the off position and operate the motor until all of the fuel in the carburetor is absorbed and the motor dies.

To stop rusting from the tanks, poor a tsp of fresh engine oil into each cylinder by removing the spark plugs. Put a sheet of fabric over the spark plug holes and then turn the engine over a couple of times to spread the oil and then coat the cylinder walls. Replace the spark plugs after finishing this operation.

Remove the battery and confirm it is completely charged and keep it in a area to protect it from freezing. You should set the battery on a trickle charger once a month while in storage to keep it from releasing and sulfating.

When the bike has a driveway series, you must lubricate it to stop it from rusting.

Inflate the tires to the mill recommended pressure to avoid sidewall cracks or flat spots.

Wash and wax all of the chrome and painted components.

Cover the bike to keep grit and dust out of deciding on the paint that could lead to a scratched finish. It's also recommended with a fabric cover to prevent any moisture accumulating on the pay or the chrome or painted surfaces. Following these procedures will lessen the odds of getting problems when choosing the bike from storage and making sure that your bike will look as great and operate and it did when you put it . The outcome will be a fun riding period once it starts.

[berniesrevolution]

In the heyday of the internet message board, let’s say in the 1990s, a certain species of idiot materialized. He was male, aggressively pedantic, self-professedly logical, committed to the hard sciences, prone to starting sentences with “actually,” and almost always devoted to the notion that his disbelief in God imbued him with intellectual superiority. This archetype’s golden years were the 2000s, a decade that saw George W. Bush’s politicized creationism and the use of web forums peak in unison. Once that decade ended, the internet tired of his antics and made him central to a series of in-jokes —“neckbeard” described his less-than-stellar grooming habits; and his hat of choice, the fedora, became the butt of innumerable jokes during Obama’s first term. No longer needed or tolerated, this misunderstood paragon of Enlightenment-core values began a journey that brought him to the worst possible destination: the Republican Party.

The Bush years provided militant atheists and amateur debate enthusiasts adequate fodder for their performative condescension. It seems almost quaint in retrospect, but newish, performative Christianity was being lab-tested at the time. Bush himself was a born-again Christian who cited a vision from God when justifying the disastrous invasion of Iraq, and his leadership inspired zealots across the country to up the ante. In 2001, Jerry Falwell, who had recently accused the show Teletubbies of “modeling the gay lifestyle” to children, blamed 9/11 on pagans and abortionists. In 2003, Judge Roy Moore installed a 5000-pound Ten Commandments monument outside the Alabama Supreme Court, refused to comply with court orders to take it down, and was eventually removed from office as a result.

The Bush presidency was a fantastic moment in which to be a self-satisfied dork with a penchant for explaining things to people.

Richard Dawkins’s 2006 The God Delusion and Christopher Hitchens’s 2007 God Is Not Great each sold millions of copies, and Bill Maher’s Religulous was the highest grossing documentary of 2008. South Park lampooned Mormons, and internet trolls declared war on easy targets like the Westboro Baptist Church and the Church of Scientology. Until his disbarment in 2008, gamers mobilized to stop evangelical lawyer Jack Thompson from filing frivolous obscenity lawsuits against the makers of Grand Theft Auto. Atheists invented a religion around the “Flying Spaghetti Monster,” and demanded it be given equal weight in textbooks, to satirize the teaching of intelligent design in public schools. This subculture was dubbed “New Atheism.” It had a nice jaunt.

Once Bush left office, the promoters of “intelligent design” curricula retreated from the public sphere, and millennials asserted themselves as the least religious generation to date; the group that had coalesced around the practice logically refuting creationists needed new targets. One of the targets they chose was women. Militant atheism had always been male-dominated, but it took several years and a sea change in American politics for the sexism within its ranks to fully bloom. In 2011, skeptic blogger Rebecca Watson described in a YouTube video how a male fellow attendee of an atheist conference had followed her into an elevator at 4 a.m. in order to ask her on a date—behavior that, understandably, made her uncomfortable. The community erupted into what was later remembered as “Elevatorgate.” A forum was created to harass Watson, and Richard Dawkins himself wrote a comment telling her to “stop whining” because she had it better than victims of honor killings and female genital mutilation.

This dynamic played out again and again. In 2012, the popular atheist vlogger Thunderf00t (real name Phil Mason) aimed his sights at Watson in a video titled “Why ‘Feminism’ is poisoning Atheism,” thereby reigniting the previous year’s controversy. This time it took off, leading him to create several follow-up videos accusing women of destroying the paradise that was New Atheism for their own gain. In 2013, Mason inaugurated his “FEMINISM vs. FACTS” series of videos, which attacked Anita Sarkeesian, a feminist video game critic who was then receiving an onslaught of harassment and violent threats for daring to analyze Super Mario Bros. This sort of idiocy, combined, again, with the growing popularity of jibes associating outspoken atheists with fedoras, neckbeards, and virginity, led to an exodus of liberals and leftists from the “atheist” tent. Those who remained for the most part lacked in social skills and self-awareness, and the results were disastrous.

New Atheism and the Gamergate movement of 2014—which sicced vicious online mobs on female journalists and game designers based on spurious allegations of media corruption—overlapped in several ways. They were both male-dominated, the latter almost exclusively so, and they both festered on nerd-oriented internet forums. Both movements resented women and minorities who asserted themselves within those spaces, ostensibly because it provided an unimportant distraction from their respective goals of destroying religion and uncritically consuming entertainment products. The difference, though, was that Gamergate had no basis in reality. The central allegation of that controversy, that a developer slept with a Kotaku writer in order to secure a positive review of her game, was blatantly untrue. No such review existed, which posed a problem for anyone who viewed himself as the protagonist in a battle “vs. FEMINISM.” In order to continue this all-out war on feminists—the curious replacement creationists for a new decade that lacked for them—these New-New Atheists had to break with reality altogether.

The heirs to New Atheism may have a new target and a remodeled ethos, but their rhetorical crutches remain the same. They announce at every opportunity that they revere logic, evidence, and science, even if the opposite is plainly true. We saw this play out with James Damore, the engineer who was fired from Google after spreading a memo critiquing the company’s pro-diversity policies. Damore argued in his memo, titled “Google’s Ideological Echo Chamber,” that biological differences between men and women, not sexism, could account for the lack of gender parity in the tech industry. In the memo, he repeatedly used the favored buzzwords of atheist pedants. He wrote that he “strongly value[s] individualism and reason,” claimed that “the Left tends to deny science” and asked that Google “be open about the science of human nature.” The repetition of these sentiments failed to strengthen his case, which was made from gut feeling and justified retroactively with garbled logic and irrelevant studies. An investigation by Wired found that two of the researchers Damore cited disagreed with the conclusions he drew from their work, with one telling them that “It is unclear to me that this sex difference would play a role in success within the Google workplace (in particular, not being able to handle stresses of leadership in the workplace. That’s a huge stretch to me).”

The full scope of Apple World is being focused

The full scope of Apple World is being focused

https://theministerofcapitalism.com/blog/the-full-scope-of-apple-world-is-being-focused/

Even a new feature in the iPhone Photos app that organizes your photos into a slide show with an emotional soundtrack will require a subscription to Apple Music. To access new fitness class offers on Apple Fitness + and use them on a large screen, you’ll need a Fitness + subscription, an Apple Watch, and an Apple TV.

With macOS Monterey, which will soon run on Mac computers and laptops, a new feature called universal Control allows users to wirelessly sync their Macs and iPads and use a keyboard or mouse on both pieces of hardware. AirPlay will also reach Macs, so iPhone users can stream phone content to a Mac screen. And macOS Monterey includes many of the same software updates that iOS 15 gets, including an updated FaceTime experience and SharePlay feature. Almost every road leads to another Apple product.

Not all of Apple’s recently announced software features were limited to Apple stuff. SharePlay will have an API, or application programming interface, a set of software tools that allows other application makers to integrate these media sharing experiences into their offerings. Some major content streaming application manufacturers have already signed up to allow their videos to be shared with SharePlayed, including Hulu, Disney +, ESPN +, Twitch, and TikTok. FaceTime reaches the web, which means that Android phone users and people with Windows PCs will be able to access the same FaceTime calls that have been closed for years. Siri, Apple’s typically exclusive voice assistant, may appear speaking from Apple-approved third-party hardware. Don’t forget that Siri is still a bit ineffective; at least now it will work with an Ecobee smart thermostat.

Apple’s differentiation will, however, be in the details. Just because you can use Apple software on different apps or devices doesn’t mean it’s optimized on those devices in the same way you do on an iPad or iPhone. FaceTime on the web will not have the latest Apple SharePlay feature, for example. Also, FaceTime calls on Android phones will not be able to apply effects to your video. And even the appearance of Siri on that Ecobee thermostat comes with a major catch: You’ll need to buy a $ 99 HomePod mini, Apple’s answer to Amazon Echo, for Siri to work with non-Apple hardware.

All about Apple

Some technologists and consumers will argue that these fully integrated experiences are what make Apple products work. better than other options out there. In some cases, the argument is solid.

There are security advantages, for example. This kind of close integration allows in part products like iCloud +, which, when released later this year, will include security enhancements to Apple’s email client, unlimited storage for video images recorded with HomeKit compatible security cameras and a feature similar to VPN. masks Internet browsing in Safari.

Ben Thompson, the analyst who writes the popular Stratechery newsletter and is a keen critic of Apple’s App Store issues, points out in his newsletter that even he sometimes enjoys the “advantages that come from Apple’s deep level of integration, both in terms of individual devices and in its ecosystem.”

A specific example given by Thompson is his use of AirDrop as part of his workflow, and he claims a new feature called Quick Note, which creates an ecosystem-wide experience for taking notes on Apple products. , you are tempted to switch to Apple Notes. “Yes, innovation is born out of openness and the philosophy of letting a thousand flowers bloom, but it can also come from control and the ability to integrate through non-obvious interfaces,” Thompson writes.

Techsponential’s Greengart also has a somewhat optimistic view of Apple’s prioritization of its own software systems and applications. He points out that Apple’s focus on its tightly integrated software is usually followed by some reduction in access restrictions for developers that Apple puts on sensors and APIs running on Apple’s hardware, which its turn leads to better applications for consumers. “I’m hoping that at some point, the things that are shown to improve the iOS ecosystem, developers can also play within that ecosystem,” he says.

You could even call it a rosy view of Apple’s approach – a fitting description for a walled garden.

Elon Musk Decries ‘M.B.A.-ization’ of America

What is wrong with American corporations?

Elon Musk

says too many M.B.A.s. are polluting companies’ ability to think creatively and give customers what they really want.

His comments criticizing M.B.A.s came amid a broader conversation about leadership before an online audience during The Wall Street Journal’s CEO Council annual summit, where he also encouraged executives to step away from their spreadsheets and get out of the boardroom and onto the factory floor.

“I think there might be too many M.B.A.s running companies,” the

Tesla Inc.

chief executive said. “There’s the M.B.A.-ization of America, which I think is maybe not that great. There should be more focus on the product or service itself, less time on board meetings, less time on financials.”

Many business-school leaders shot back, saying that Mr. Musk’s comments don’t match the reality of what is taught in M.B.A. programs and that more students than ever who are pursuing the graduate degree are interested in entrepreneurship and tech rather than Wall Street.

“I have nothing but the utmost respect for Elon, but he’s wrong to focus the blame on M.B.A.s,” said

Robert Siegel,

a lecturer in management at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. “I think he’s got a strong element of truth of what leaders should be focused on, but he is completely off base talking about M.B.A.s.”

Mr. Siegel said Stanford offers students a variety of business-school courses on product development and customer engagement. There are also opportunities for budding entrepreneurs to pitch their business plans for capital as well as to work with professors and other departments, such as the engineering school, to help launch their ideas, he added.

Glenn Hubbard,

the former dean of Columbia Business School, said an M.B.A. gives entrepreneurs the foundation needed to succeed, including imagining a product for a customer’s needs, developing a strategy, putting together a financing plan and building a team.

“He is a visionary, but many CEOs do well at vision and execution with the benefit of an M.B.A., or with a strong team of M.B.A.s.”

“ ‘There should be more focus on the product or service itself, less time on board meetings, less time on financials.’ ”

— Elon Musk

Among the top 100 CEOs in the Fortune 500, roughly a third holds a master’s in business administration, according to the U.S. News Best Business School rankings. Five M.B.A. programs have trained more than one Fortune 100 CEO, including Harvard Business School, which counts JPMorgan Chase & Co. chief

James Dimon

and

Lawrence Culp Jr.

, the CEO of General Electric Co., among its alums, and Stanford, where General Motors Co. CEO

Mary Barra

and Capital One Financial Corp. CEO

Richard Fairbank

went to business school.

Not all Fortune 100 CEOs with an M.B.A. attended a highly ranked program, the report says. For instance,

Stephen Squeri,

CEO at American Express Co., earned his degree from Manhattan College’s O’Malley School of Business.

Raj Echambadi,

the dean of Northeastern University’s D’Amore-McKim School of Business, questioned Mr. Musk’s assertion that CEOs shouldn’t be attuned to their company profitability, adding that an M.B.A. can give corporate leaders a holistic understanding of business, from the supply chain, operations and manufacturing to marketing, customer service and human resources.

“Do we really think that investor focus on financials is an MBA-education problem?” said

Rich Lyons,

the former dean of the University of California, Berkeley’s Haas School of Business. “Do firms with fewer M.B.A.s on their boards and senior teams have shorter meetings? I’m skeptical. Might Musk’s rightful emphasis on product be more a function of the science-driven industry he’s in, as opposed to valid generalization?”

future of m.b.a. programs

Some critics of the M.B.A applauded Mr. Musk. Dan Rasmussen, a partner at investment firm Verdad Advisers in Boston, said he was delighted by Mr. Musk questioning the value proposition of business education. Mr. Rasmussen wrote a report published in 2019 in Institutional Investor that found M.B.A. programs don’t produce CEOs who are better at running companies when their performance is measured by stock-price return.

“What Musk is pointing out here is rewarding doers rather than focusing on airy concepts such as management,” Mr. Rasmussen said. “I’m in favor of a society that favors doing and action rather than pedigree. People devoted to the company might be better or equal to a star M.B.A. that got head-hunted into the company.”

This wasn’t the first time Mr. Musk or other tech leaders have criticized the M.B.A. In a 2013 interview with the American Physical Society, a nonprofit professional organization for people in physics-related industries, Mr. Musk said: “I hire people in spite of an M.B.A., not because of one.”

Peter Thiel,

the venture capitalist who started

PayPal Holdings Inc.

with Mr. Musk and others two decades ago, once said: “Never ever hire an M.B.A.; they will ruin your company.”Tesla is one of the most sought-after places to work for young graduates and many business-school students, according to Handshake, a student career-services website that college graduates use to look for work. For the past five years, the electric-car maker has consistently ranked among the top three employers receiving the most job applications

Jeff Bezos,

the longtime head of

Amazon.com Inc.,

has criticized M.B.A.s. in the past. But as the e-commerce retailer has grown over the past decade, it has become one of the biggest employers of M.B.A. graduates.

SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS

How much weight do you think Elon Musk’s views on MBAs will carry with potential business-school applicants? Join the conversation below.

M.B.A. programs have faced criticism over whether their often hefty price tags are worth it. Some of the highest-ranked M.B.A. programs can cost six figures without any living expenses added in or factoring for the opportunity costs of taking two years out of a career to pursue the degree.

Kai Thompson, a recent M.B.A. graduate of the University of Minnesota’s Carlson School of Management who works as a consultant, said his education was worth it.

“The assumption of Mr. Musk that all M.B.A.s care more about finances, spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations, and board meetings than delivering quality products and services to customers is just simply inaccurate,” he said.
