I don't condone this blokes actions nor do I like the people he hangs with but fuck me this is a worrying violation of someones free speech.
“He made it clear he was anti-Muslim and directly criticised the Koran.”
He made a number of derogatory comments about Islam,
mixing with certain people that had ‘skewed his thinking and how he perceived the world’.
The judge found him "Highly Racist"
We have gone full Orwellian. Just wait til we get stand alone Islamophobia laws.

Yes, I know. I listened to him talking to Douglas Murray and most of it was fine but on the occasions when Delingpole said something silly Murray would let it slide which left me wondering what he actually thought.

Just read this on the Beeb web site:
While many parts of England and the whole of Northern Ireland are voting for local councillors today, in Northamptonshire elections have been called off.

Northamptonshire County Council's financial crisis has meant it has twice banned spending, made cuts to services and had to sell off £70m of assets.

Now budget controls imposed by government mean that elections in several district and borough councils could be delayed until 2020 or beyond.

The borough councils of Corby, Kettering, Northampton and Wellingborough as well as at district councils for East Northamptonshire, South Northamptonshire and Daventry were all due to have elections today.
Is this true? How can it be legal? I am stunned, shocked, ashamed, embarrassed by how far the country of my birth has fallen down the shitter. It really, really is fucked.

Or possibly not - Randazza (PZ's lawyer) is out - and things are not going so well for Daily Stormer founder Andrew Anglin.

https://forward.com/fast-forward/423282 ... y-stormer/

So, I guess this can be chalked up to a blow against free speech.

I read a fair bit of Delingpole years ago; long before what became known as the 'alt-right' came to prominence. He's a fairly sharp writer and I like his penchant for history. On the other hand, he's a very English product of the class system, and you can practically smell his regret he isn't part of the Etonian caste; merely making it as far as Oxbridge.

His more recent shtick is just stupid, like a male mirror of Katie Hopkins it's all about clicks. I wouldn't be sure of anything he claims to believe.

Trigger warning: watching The Orbit as it slowly, asymptotically, approaches death.

Two bloggers managed, all together, to put up a grand total of 4 blog posts at The Orbit in the month of April. They accumulated a total of zero (0) reader comments.

By the numbers, the site-wide picture looks like this:
0.133 posts/day
0.000 comments/day

When averaged over all 22 bloggers at the site:
0.006 posts/day/blogger
0.000 comments/day/blogger

Ania Onion Bula ('Splain You A Thing) put up 3: she always puts up 3 a month, usually jammed in on the last week of the month (even though her patron page commits to 5 posts a month). And Tony Thompson (The Progressive Pub) stopped by to put up his usual once-per-3-month post.

As usual, the topics are all about the trials and tribulations of the poster. It's funny how they seem to define "fighting for Social Justice" as "complaining about their own personal fucked-up situations in life". I guess other marginalized people will just have to wait their turn.

Haha! Fat old fraud was supposed to have given up on Twitter years ago on principles. Now he's using it to pay off his debts! Fucking lol.

It's a line between two different steels. It's not to my tastes, but that may be the lighting. It has a 1095 high carbon steel core clad in 15N20. 1095 doesn't keep an edge all that well, isn't very hard, but it does take abuse. There are better (more expensive) knife steels. I don't like carbon steel for a knife because of the extra care needed to avoid corrosion. Some people love it. I prefer stainless. From what I can tell from a photo it isn't a top of the line knife but it also isn't a shit knife.

Yes, it looks like that on purpose.

Turns out it's a 300 UK pounds nice knife. Now that is via an auction with the aim of funding a "good" cause, but still it must be better than it looks to the untrained eye. And the handle is ebony/pure silver.

300 pounds? It's for a cause and people will pay extra in that case, but that's getting into Konosuke territory price-wise.

Sorry, it is actually Dollars. I swear it was the Pound symbol before. I wonder if the currency symbol on websites changes depending on which country my VPN is set to connect through, because earlier I was appearing to browse from the UK and now the US. Interesting...

I concur that it "looks" like carbon steel. I have a couple myself and they do require more care than "regular" stainless steel knives. I looks like it was hand made too.

One thing is clear, if you attack someone with it, avoid stabbing and stick to slashing. Unless you do not mind cutting your hand when it slips off the handle while you are delivering stabs, and it will, pretty much guaranteed do that.

I've been out of the loop for a little while. Has Carrier been spooging up the place?
Haha! Fat old fraud was supposed to have given up on Twitter years ago on principles. Now he's using it to pay off his debts! Fucking lol. That blade looks weird, maybe one of our surprisingly high number of local knife experts can tell me if that is some weird high quality finish that is supposed to look that way?
It's a line between two different steels. It's not to my tastes, but that may be the lighting. It has a 1095 high carbon steel core clad in 15N20. 1095 doesn't keep an edge all that well, isn't very hard, but it does take abuse. There are better (more expensive) knife steels. I don't like carbon steel for a knife because of the extra care needed to avoid corrosion. Some people love it. I prefer stainless. From what I can tell from a photo it isn't a top of the line knife but it also isn't a shit knife.

Yes, it looks like that on purpose.
And the two steels are acid etched to show off the fact it is of san mai construction. A few custom straight razor makers have experimented with this, notably Mastro Livi. It's a way of having the toughness of stainless steel combined with the honing and edge qualities of carbon steel and is more applicable to long thin blades subject to high impact forces - ie swords. Not needed in a kitchen knife unless you have something to prove.

Once per month I get a straight razor shave from the little lady. It has become something of a ritual (music, pre-shave shower, glass of vino etc) and even though I thoroughly enjoy the post-shave feel, I must admit, I am squirming (internally) the instant she puts blade to neck. My mind goes into overdrive should the worst happen - quick-clot location, mobile phone fully charged, bandages, improvised defensive weapons within arms-reach, "actions on" drills fully memorized etc.

Man, either I'm mentally ill (is paranoia a mental illness?) or my divorce has left me with serious trust issues.

Not sure I should have shared this...

Oh yeah, it's decorative. I do have a couple of knives made with a powdered stainless core clad in cheaper stainless. The harder steel is nice, especially with vegetables. If I'm dealing with bone then it's too brittle and I'll use a German steel or VG10 knife. The great majority of knives are German steel or VG10 because no one needs anything more than that. I have some Wusthofs that have taken decades of abuse and still bounce back. Damascus finishes and the like look pretty and give salespeople a way to talk people into more expensive knives. It's surprisingly easy to convince some people that a fancy knife will make them better. If you're shitty at chopping an onion with a cheap knife you'll still be shitty with an expensive knife. It will look better as you mangle the onion, though. Anything I can do with a $100+ knife I can still do with a $10 knife.

I have a similar reaction when whoever is cutting my hair decides to trim my eyebrows without giving me a heads up. I'm just sitting there enjoying a haircut and suddenly there's a pair of scissors within an inch of my eye. I have to fight the urge to leap out of the chair.

I still have the 10" Wusthof my ex tried to stab me in the heart with. No way she was getting the kitchen knifes in the divorce.

Fascinating. Among my horse racing friends, the reaction to the Kentucky Derby disqualification is falling on political lines.
