Made a audio track with Gemini Ai
They couldn't make a video using the video I supplied and adding an audio track to it. So it produced an audio track instead.

Is it me, or are people decidedly negative these days?
After scanning over most of the stores on my usual haunts on the web, it sure looks like people want to be negative about things.
Maybe people would rather be unhappy?
Massie got beat, but he gets a lot of media coverage. It would seem that the loser would disappear. But no...
It isn't just this Massie business. It's everything. If there's a negative take, people are taking it.
Would folks prefer the Democrats??? They haven't got anything to offer but bad news!

Strange title for this post on Instapundit... Texas isn't that much sunnier than the East. It is less sunny than the West!
Compared to Europe, America gets a lot of sunshine.

CSI Starbase Deep Dive
Here's another one of these deep dives. More than what you can possibly want to know about what only a nerd cares about.
Rumble
It's been years since I posted anything on Rumble. Why? I purchased a new computer. The old one wore out. The old one had a video editing program included, so it was possible to make videos that can be uploaded. The new one didn't, but you could use Microsoft's "Clipchamp".
Clipchamp is not the same program that I had been using. Therefore, there was a learning curve to master. It also requires that you sign in to use it, which I frowned upon. Without any way to edit new videos, there was no reason to upload anything new. That explains why there's no new content being produced on Rumble.
Going back there to use it for uploads reminded me of what I'd done before. Some of the videos got some views, but nothing spectacular.
There is a way to monetize the thing and make money. I laugh as I write this.
Well, maybe that is not really a big joke. I suppose it is always possible that it could turn into a money-maker. But I didn't even think of that with respect to this last trip.
Maybe this should take some thinking...
Update (on next day):
I've done some thinking... Plus I did some work on ClipChamp again. I was successful in getting the video shortened. It may be useful for putting together disparate clips into one larger one, but I haven't checked into that yet.
If I post on Rumble, I'm not likely to make much money. But theoretically, I can make a little. I can't make money on Google because they didn't like what I did in the early history of this blog, and because of that, they won't allow me to make money here. It wouldn't have been much anyway.
In other words, I'm not counting on making money from this. But things could change. It's always possible, I suppose.

Not claiming to be Cherokee here. If I was like Pocahontas, I could even claim to be African American. Somewhere in the past, a North African made his way into my genealogy. Yep, enough generations that would produce about 1% North African descent. Senegal, if memory serves. This wasn't my word, but a brother's word about the test he took. 2% Injun, 1% North African, the rest is North European.
I think I could pass as white.
6/7/15:
In my genealogy foray, I discovered that my great great grandmother was 100% Cherokee injun.
Doggone!
That explains everything. "White man has been sneaking up on us for years." "We are civilized because we are easy to sneak up on".
