I used to do that too, but since the .NET framework updated itself to the newest version, it won't let me touch the cache.

Yeah that update sucks, but if you download some more RAM to your hard drive it actually re-allows administrative access again. Whether this is a bug or an implementation by Microsoft I'm not sure but it works regardless: https://www.downloadmoreram.com/download.html

Ah, I missed that. Rookie error. I'll get it done when I get the time.

i posted this in the "what do you hear right now" page but it seems noone noticed it (or liked it) so i ll repost it here for the kesha fans and other more regular people who hang around.

theres this group the exbats. they seem to be completely unnoticed (like in spotify p.e they have<1,000 monthly listeners. they put out 2 cassetes and it seems they re going to compile some of their songs from those to what will become their "debut"
they have like 4-5 super indie-hits in there (in my opinion amyway), heres one of them.
(a strange fact is that they re a father-20y.o daughter duo)
i mean beeing a 20 year old girl and beeing in a rock-n-roll/punk duo with your father??????? blewww. anyway. the tracks are fine. here it is:

didnt know where to put this (i only found an "adult political page" or smth but read a bit and it didnt seem to fit in) so i ll just put it here.


seems that this guy that once founded virgin records is producing some kind of concert or smth at the borders (?) of venezuela to help force the goverment of the country to take in some "humanitarian aid".
the whole thing smells from miles away but it seems many people are (at best) naive enough to believe in the humanitarian motives of the sending of this aid.
anyway what i found and wanted to share is roger waters' (!) reaction to this story. i amazed by it (amazed in a positive, happy way..)

search venezuela threads resulted in one thread:

I always thought of Roger Waters of being a bit whiny—and a bit of a defamation troll—and a sort of Al Franken when it comes to insipid leftism (as opposed to other types of leftism) but tbf, I haven't paid him much attention.

One of the few Pink Floyd songs that's optimistic (at least seems to be):




Yeah, the US and company are encouraging Venezuelans to "vote with their stomachs" but Maduro likely made his country vulnerable to this.

If the aid was given directly to him—and assuming he'd take it—he'd use it to feed his soldiers and supporters—like in Ethiopia in the 1980s.

Russia could counter these US-supported efforts by sending food aid to him—likely cheaper than propping up his government like they're doing in Syria, but I suppose they're too busy with their own self-inflicted gunshot wound in Ukraine.

Invading Venezuela is a bad idea—unless perhaps one does it like Papa Bush did with Iraq—plan well, get in, get out—but that's likely a bit too much expect from America's current HIIC.

Wall or no wall, they're coming. Like Guatemala and El Salvador: America broke it, they bought it.

i ve definitely paid even less attention to waters' politic views, i only know floyd were actively taking sides to the palestinian/israeli conflict.

in this case his position cant even be called left, he says the us want to take over venezuela and this unwanted and probably not needed (?) "aid" is just a trojan horse to throw maduro of the goverment and plant thheir guy in his position. (thru "free" elections of course.)

ukraine is not russia inflicted, it is germany inflicted (or us inflicted if you wanna go back to the whole orange-revolution stuff)

invading countries is always a bad idea and iraq is a pretty good example why.
i think its crazy and i wont even try to understand why you are citing it as a good example....

good track! (the floyd track i mean), thanks, i m not sure i even heard it before.
the first guy playing with his granddaughters i didnt like the track and the video is awful, everyone's so unnatural..

I slightly wonder if they support that stupid musical boycott of Israel I somewhat heard about.

Yeah, that's something a leftist would say—though I agree the US wants to move in. But I guess that "trojan horse" got burned. It's not a trojan horse: it's food. If Maduro's suspicious, I suppose he could inspect the convoy and have minders accompany them, but even this would be an admission of need.

Russia attacked Ukraine, ergo Russia inflicted injury on Ukraine—and itself in terms of lost credibility, prestige, and Ukrainian resistance, such as it is. Less than 30 years ago, Ukraine was occupied and controlled by Moscow. Several decades before that, millions of them were starved by the Soviets—of which Putin admires. Ukraine shouldn't have given up her nukes. It was stupid to believe the promises of the American and Russian presidents; and now it's being carved up like a pot-roast while the world does pretty well nothing. (Not that I want it too, but it's a lesson.)

I didn't. Note the word "perhaps." I opposed Papa Bush invading Iraq, but at least he didn't leave the mess his son did.

Thanks. Bachman gives me hope that septuagenarians can still do good new music. Differing views on music are inevitable. Thanks for listening.

(Note: lest you get tired of them, just because I post a lot of links to videos doesn't mean I expect people to click them all. )

This is him about 25 years earlier.



Same song, countrified a bit. Margo Timmins of the Cowboy Junkies starts around 1:52.



This is him in a video of a punk band covering a BTO song. Hosers versus businessmen.



This is him with Kevin O'Leary. I didn't watch the video yet, myself.



Unlike Burton Cummings (the guy that sang American Woman), he's still kept a lot of his voice—what happens when you avoid drugs I suppose.

This is him when he was in his early 20s, maybe not even 22.
