Free Republic

H.R.3684 - Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act 117th Congress (2021-2022) How many projects have been completed?

The post is to present to the Free Republic assemblage of great technical thinkers a concept that seems to be an improbable and irrational prospect but is in fact a real conundrum. A generator has been created that produces the electric wattage to drive an electric motor that causes the rotor of the generator to spin and produce the electric current. Not only does the generator produce the power to run the motor, but it produces a considerable excess for other electric devices. The generator produces free energy, forever. The video depicting the fabrication and assembly of the generator/motor is...

I am in Israel for 3 weeks volunteering in logistics for the IDF through “Sar-El”. Many of you asked for regular Situation Reports, and this is my first one for the first week. Primer Please see my original post for why I’m here, and the nature of Sar-El: https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/4237961/posts Tel Aviv • Young: Tel Aviv is filled to the gills with young people. The ages on the street appear to be 20-35. If you’re a single Jew below 35 anywhere in the world, I recommend you RUN to Tel Aviv. The girls are extremely good looking, the weather is hot,...

Im not enjoying the free republic lime I used to. Too many newbies that are trolls, looking for someone to drag into their abyss of self hatred. Theres been a lot of posts linked to posters with no bios, I think admin needs to limit the number of posts or remove those without any bio info.

1 Corinthians 1:10 (King James Version) Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. Is the Samestream Media going to say an assassination attempt is a step too far in the land of the free? Of course not, they have to cover for the Deep State since they are an important piece of the brainwashing and control of the average America as well as...

For the past half hour or so, FR has been slow to respond, with a long delay. Refreshing a page pauses for 10-30 seconds, then suddenly bingo it's there. All other sites are acting normally. I'm on Spectrum in Upstate NY with very high-speed cable. No other symptoms. Anybody else noticing a longish delay to get a page from FR? Disclosure: I'm spoiled. The early years of FR were pretty slow all the time, and JohnRob has had this site working extremely well for so long now that a 10 second pause is unusual. Kudos JohnRob, and I hope if...

I apparently accidentally edited my tagline. Been here nearly 25 years and haven't (deliberately) edited that tagline in two decades I have NO recollection of how to DELIBERATELY edit one's tagline. How do you edit your tagline.

Over the course of my lifetime these are some of the film makers I have revered: Charlie Chaplin (more for his silent features than his talkies) and Shirley Temple, (both as a child and adult for the former and as a child only for the latter), Woody Allen (when i was a tertiary student in the 1970's and 1980's but less so now) Steve Bochco, primarily for the reinvention of what television can do through Hill Street Blues and Shawn Ryan and Micheal Ciklis for The Shield which I consider an even better drama than HSB and the best thing...

And folks wonder WHY there is a Civil war going on in the Republican Party? Well start right here. Come on over and take a peek into the minds of these people. First off, last election cycle we had a guy named Darren Bailey running for Governor. By far he was the only Republican in Illinois to show ANY Cojones! During the COVID mask debacle he told the Governor (PRITZKER) to SHOVE his mask and got escorted by the Illinois State Police off the General Assembly floor for no mask. Darren Bailey is a Farmer and a MAN who will...

Just wanted to touch base with anyone that has had open heart surgery and what I can expect post surgery. I understand they want to replace my aortic valve, have had a heart murmur for many years and I guess it has gotten worse. Bless the VA because there is no way I could afford this any other way.

With Kristi Noem's dog Cricket bit away her chances of being chosen for VP by President Trump. That appears to have narrowed the field down to two especially since the former governor of the other Dakota (North), Burgum, is revealed to be nothing more than a fully owned tool of Bill Gates as you can easily find out in any quick search.Therefore it appears the VP field has been narrowed down to JD Vance and Tim Scott. Now tell me, which of the two, according to your own observations, has the fire in the belly to carry on the MAGA...

I cannot think of anything in comedy in my lifetime more deeply meaningful to me than Babylon Bee. There was Mark Twain. Who agrees? Who believes that the Bee's Trump Bible is sacrilegious?

1 John 5:14-15 (King James Version) And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him. How desperate do you have to be to Virtue Grandstand for a group of bloodthirsty savages as if they are an oppressed person. Never mind they just had a sneak attack to gang rape and murder two thousand innocent victims; the innocent victims are the problem. You have...

The sources include Epoch Times and Jihad Watch. I can find these emails via a Yahoo email search, and the results indicate they are in the inbox, but I can't see them there. I've checked my filters, but there is nothing that might cause this problem. I added filters to whitelist the sources, diverting the email in the Inbox, but that didn't work. I've been consulting with Epoch Times about this. Other users of theirs have had similar issues with several different email providers. Any ideas?

Does anyone know anything about Vivaldi? I was looking for a privacy browser for the new ?Chromebook I was given. Brave doesn't seem to want to download, but the web search pulled up the Vivaldi browser. (I guess you could say it's a browser for all four seasons.) Anyone used this browser? Know anything about it?

Has anyone seen or heard from FReeper Nathan Bedford? I haven't seen him on the site in quite a while

I know it's a longshot but you can get up to $15 at 850/1 on Rand Paul to the be VP nominee on Betfair Betting exchange. If it came off that's a return north of $12k. I might have a little go... In terms of shorter and more realistic odds here's the list: - Tim Scott: 5.2 (Shortest by a long way) Tulsi Gabbard: 9.0 Elise Stefanik: 11.5 JD Vance: 13.5

Lying in bed listening to music on my android pad the other night and ran across this song by Owen Mac, "Play Me the Waltz of the Angles" The young boy has a beautiful voice. What got my attention was when the camera would fade in and out to what would seem to be his father or granddad. Whoever he is, this old man looks exactly like me. Even shocked my wife when she saw the video. Take a look if you like but enjoy the song. I'll be 85 next month and most 85-year-old people aren't too good looking....

Made an appointment to see a medical specialist affiliated with a large hospital and teaching institution located in Tampa, Florida. The appointment was made two months in advance, the office was that far booked up and its services apparently that much in demand. On the day of the appointment, I arrived twenty minutes early, produced my insurance and identity cards, and was given a portable tablet to complete some documentation. Just about everything I had to electronically sign on the tablet was about disclosing my personal medical history to anyone who asked for it, and agreeing that anything done to...
