    No Agenda-The Saturday Memo

    Note from John C. Dvorak

    A Birthday.

     

    Producers,

    From the looks of the PayPal account today along with an unusually low number of checks received this week, we are asking those of you who have not done much tosupport the show to consider contributing any amount you can by clicking here. You’ll feel better.

    And, if nothing else, wish Adam a happy 51st birthday with a nice $51 happy birthday Adam donation. The big five-one 0n 9-3.
    One of the things about news analysis of the sort done by your No Agenda Showis the constant battle to fight off analyzing a lesser story that only serves as a smokescreen to draw attention away from a bigger story.

    Does the media overlook more important stories when they incessantly cover Donald Trump. Apparently yes according to this story in the Guardian.

    Trump is highlighting the screwy relationship between Hillary and her “aide” Huma Abadin.

    Your No Agenda Show has been tracking this lady for years. What is this all about? Is this this a media distraction? No Agenda has answers.
    But perhaps the best smokescreen of the month is the Ashley Madison hack. What would it be covering up? The OPM hack, of course. This has completely fallen off the radar and (as will be discussed on tomorrow’s show) might be the single greatest catastrophe in American history. You will learn why. The pundit-centric shows should be discussing this non-stop, but have done just the opposite. It’s not even mentioned.
    One news item that has been chewing up the clock is the 10th anniversary of hurricane Katrina. If you paid attention you would have noticed that only No Agendaretuned to that era with the numerous dire predictions that came out of Katrina.  It makes show 751 from last Thursday worth listening to again.

    Tomorrow’s show will be another winner. And remember, your support is more than important, it is everything.
    Your co-host,

      Shooting a
      Reporter.
      WHY?

       

      No Agenda Thursday Show

      Crazy Stories abound. Live murder.

       

      Dear Producer,

      Tomorrow and Sunday mark the last two shows in August as your No Agenda Show tries to make up for the miserable July. Please help with a contribution of any amount whatsoever by clicking here. The show continues to offer the following special contribution from the last show in case you missed them.
      Webpage directory of Mile High Club members coming. Our dude named Ben from Finland, Lauri, is designing the site with a Nordic flair.
      Tomorrow you will hear about the on-air shooting of a on-air TV reporter  and cameraman. Recent verbal assaults of live TV programming will be blamed for this. The on air kiss by some goofball, the Black Lives Matter protesters, the Univision reporter are all part of a trend. And, as usual, Twitter – the supposed best source of breaking news – gets it wrong and blames the wrong guy. Only No Agenda willanalyze these and other incidents in a way that makes sense.
      Makes sure to listen to the Thursday Show. Support No Agenda by clicking here.
      Your co-hosts,
      John C. Dvorak & Adam Curry

      PS Remember the Support Page hereAnd you can always send checks to Box 339, El Cerrito, CA 94530. Make checks payable to the No Agenda Show.
      If you want real analysis based on research and digging deeper into a story, No Agenda is your show. To keep it alive please support No Agendaany way you can. There are excellent ideas on the support page here.

      Windows 10-If you really must install it yourself-pay attention!

      I have many clients that are getting excited and a little anxious that they haven't received the Windows 10 upgrade yet.. some have received the pop up stating it is ready and have contacted me, but I am getting to them as fast as I can.. the thing is, YOU HAVE A FULL YEAR to get this done as that is how long the free upgrade lasts.. Not that you should be waiting that long. With some people, they would rather hold off a while--until all the bugs are worked out--yeah right!  First of all this has been in a public beta for over a year before it was final and released to the public on July 29, 2015 therefore you shouldn't really have to wait at all. In fact most of the windows updates happen during the upgrade process as well as once the windows desktop appears.. There will be consecutive windows updates following this, most likely on a daily basis and so if you are like most of my clients who I tell to leave their computers powered on, this is a good thing because it can stay current.  However, if you are leaving it on then it is not getting restarted either and that is something Windows will now schedule in 2 days.. but why wait that long--if you aren't sure if everything is up to date, just restart your computer.. upon restarting it and it connecting to the internet, it will check if there are any new updates. As well, the fact that you just restarted it, if there were updates waiting to be installed that required the computer be restarted, you just did that so all should be good.

      Now, if you are reading this and thinking to yourself, "well this is great, but I haven't got it installed yet!".. and you really want to do this on your own, you should pay attention to the first screen that comes up, wanting you to answer a number of questions, or as Microsoft words it most of the time by placing the (recommended) tag after what they want you to choose--most of the time you don't want that option, especially initially when they prompt you to "get going now" and use the "express settings".. You may want to follow this very detailed update process from The Register as they explain what security and data is being shared by Microsoft.  Personally I do not suggest signing in to Microsoft on start up either. When you install apps, choose to sign in each time, otherwise it will switch you to signing in to your Microsoft account on start up again.

      If you really  must install it then this should seriously save a lot of headaches later on! If you are an existing client of mine and have not received your upgrade, just drop me a line and I will move you to the top of the list.. you know what they say about the squeaky wheel...

      Windows 10-Ransomware is out of control!


      With the most recent release of Windows 10, it appear the criminals are going crazy with building malicious websites that lock up your computer, stating "YOU HAVE A VIRUS" and to call a specific number.. when you call they tell you to do a few things and then all of a sudden they are connected t your computer.. it is at that point you are screwed.. so DON'T DO IT!   

      I have posted about this not too long ago yet already since that post 2 of my own clients have been hit with this.. one through a phone call and one through landing on one of these websites.. Unfortunately only one of them contacted me first and the other allowed this complete stranger access to their computer.. fortunately she pulled the plug (literally) and disconnected him on the phone as well as shut off the computer.. I was then able to connect and am currently performing numerous malware/spyware and security scans.

      Do yourself a favour and STOP ALLOWING COMPLETE STRANGERS ACCESS TO YOUR COMPUTER! If you are unsure of something contact me first!

        No Agenda-The Saturday Memo

        Note from John C. Dvorak

        No Agenda is not like anything else.

         

        Producers,

        I was a little annoyed by one of the producers today. And I realized this subtle affront has happened more than once or twice. It amounted to an email challenge. If we did a certain thing on the show this listener would donate $100.

        To my ears this is a violation of the principles of the show and is the sort of thing the advertiser supported media does. While the suggestion may be sincere and innocuous it can easily be interpreted as “jump though this hoop, monkey boy, and you get a banana.”
        Your No Agenda support model rejects this mainstream media ideal where hosts are commonly jumping through hoops for advertisers, pressure groups, or sadistic bosses.

        In the process the show lost $100. Was I wrong to think this way? You tell me.

        Any producer who has been hankering to help the show, you are offered a special “incorruptible $100 make-good donation.” Click here so there are no second thoughts about refusing to play old games.

        And, of course, there is always the open donation of any amount whatsoever. You can click here for that. (Tomorrow's show could use the help.)
        The many faces of MSM Donald Trump. Always a goofy look.
        You should be stunned by an odd piece of anti-Trump/anti-Republican vitriol that appeared here.
        One paragraph pulled out the Hitler meme, which was an eye-roller.

        “Can Trump win? It seems unlikely, especially after this weekend. Of course that is what the media said about a funny-looking spewer of hate with an odd mustache who was dismissed as an awful public speaker and not a serious candidate in Germany in the 1930s. In the Reichstag elections of November 1932, held months before Hitler become Chancellor of Germany, there were 37 different political parties competing in a melee that bears some resemblance to today’s Republican primary. Given a long time to spread racist drivel to a public nervous about preserving their national identity from ‘non-Germans,’ Adolf Hitler won.
        How this sort of drivel appears in the bastion of journalistic integrity, Pointer.org, shows that there is no integrity, anywhere. And anyone who knows any history knows that theserandom assertions are not even close to accurate including the “odd moustache” quip which described a fashionable moustache of the era. Actor, Charlie Chaplin wore it.

        “Awful public speaker” really makes you wonder.

        But the breakdown and nonsense of the piece adds that necessary guilt by association message with the comment that in the 1930’s “37 different political parties competing in a melee that bears some resemblance to today’s Republican primary.” This is a further effort to associate (smear) Republicans with Hitler. 37 political parties bears zero resemblance to 17 random candidates of one party.

        I have never seen such freakish behavior by the media ever. Something is up. If Trump’s goal is to bring out the worst behavior in the analysts, pundits, and supposed objective reporters, he’s doing a great job.
        The No Agenda Show does not succumb to any sort of media or political ploys. No Agenda does continued in-depth, non-partisan, believable, and logical analysis of today’s events. No other media outlet can do what No Agenda does because they are all beholding to some outside interest. No Agenda is beholding to YOU.

        Please support these efforts with a contribution of any amount by clicking here.
        Tomorrow’s show promises to be exciting again.

        Your co-host,
