Podcasts about Thunderbolt

It's hard to meet a famous person, but if that famous person writes a book, you get the best of that person, and you get to sit there in the comfort of your own home and that's like, 'How am I with this person that's telling me all their secrets?' They put everything in the book, and so Prabhupāda did the same thing. He said, 'If you want to know me and everything I had to say, read my books.' And he personally told a few of us—I was there with Keśava Bhāratī Mahārāja and myself and a couple of other devotees in San Francisco circa 1974—and our temple president gave the book distribution report, and then Prabhupāda looked at us, and he said, 'You must also read my books. I have not written them just for selling. I have written them for you to become a pure devotee and go back home, back to Godhead.' Thunderbolt! So that's what we're doing, purposefully coming to 'THE' place on the planet, which our authorities say is better than Rādhākuṇḍa, in a way, because from here we're like this (folded hands) 'to Rādhākuṇḍa. We stay here at Rādhākuṇḍa with Śrī Kṛṣṇa Mahārāja and his exalted devotees, and we just hear from Prabhupāda's books, and we discuss- 'smarantaḥ smārayantaś ca, 'and from that sādhana, then comes the emergence of bhāva. It comes naturally, so that's why we are here. At least, that's my idea of it. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

professorjrod@gmail.comThe digital world seems like magic to many, but behind every functioning computer is a complex system of hardware components and methodical troubleshooting approaches. In this comprehensive episode, we pull back the curtain on what makes IT specialists effective problem-solvers and explore the physical heart of computing systems.We begin by examining the role of IT specialists as workplace heroes who tackle everything from simple password resets to complex network outages. Through real-world stories and practical examples, we highlight how the best tech professionals combine technical knowledge with crucial soft skills like communication and organization. You'll discover why explaining complex concepts in plain language is just as important as understanding those concepts in the first place.At the core of effective IT work lies a structured troubleshooting methodology. We break down CompTIA's six-step approach: identifying problems through careful information gathering, establishing theories of probable cause, testing those theories systematically, implementing solutions, verifying full functionality, and documenting everything for future reference. This methodology isn't just exam material—it's a framework that professionals rely on daily to solve real-world tech problems efficiently.The episode then ventures into hardware territory, exploring the motherboard as the computer's central nervous system. We discuss different form factors, installation procedures, and potential pitfalls like electrostatic discharge. Our journey continues through the evolution of connection standards—from early USB and display technologies to modern Thunderbolt and USB-C implementations—and the expansion cards that enhance computer functionality.Whether you're studying for CompTIA certification, working in IT, or simply curious about what happens when you call tech support, this episode provides valuable insights into the methodical thinking and technical knowledge that powers our digital world. We wrap up with practice questions that reinforce key concepts and prepare you for both certification exams and real-world scenarios.Subscribe to Technology Tap for our continuing series on CompTIA A+ certification topics, with our next episode diving into storage technologies from traditional hard drives to cutting-edge NVMe solutions.The Dom Sub Living BDSM and Kink PodcastCurious about Dominance & submission?

On this audio and/or video episode of the podcast Phillip is joined for the first time by fan of the show and especially a fan of movie, Jerry Dennis. The two of them discuss 1984's John Milius directed Red Dawn. Phillip starts the show by reading the general information about the movie with some trivia mixed in. It's then time for Listener' Opinions from Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Phillip and Jerry then discuss Red Dawn, and it's a very fun conversation. Then it's time to answer whether they noticed anything from this movie that Tarantino might have liked or used in a film. They then individually rate the movie. They then talk about if they would buy this movie, rent it, or find it for free. It's then time for Phil's Film Favorite of the Week; Thunderbolt and Lightfoot (1974). Jerry recommends Magnum Force (1973). Phillip then promotes next week's show when he will be joined once again by Frank Mandosa from the Reels of Cinema Podcast to discuss The Lords of Flatbush (1974). Thanks for watching and/or listening.

“We can be broke anywhere, so why not Nashville?” were the fateful words from Tony's wife Jamyi some 40 years ago.Once packed up from Thunderbolt, Georgia it didn't take long for the aspiring singer/songwriter (and UPS worker) tohave a chance run-in with Garth Brooks. Tony explains the quirky inspiration for writing “The Dance,” which is amonghis four #1 country chart toppers and Brook's admitted signature song. Dolly, Reba, Emmylou, Trisha, Patty Loveless andLainey Wilson have all recorded his songs. Not bad for a journalism major.

The panel strongly recommends updating immediately to protect against potential exploits. Next, the group dives into the Apple vs. Masimo legal battle over blood oxygen sensing on the Apple Watch.

While some immersive features still haven't arrived, excitement is building as Vision Pro content grows.

Critiques of Siri and voice assistants, noting how user behavior hasn't evolved since 2018 due to limited feature progress. OWC's blazing-fast Express 1M2 SSD, delivering speeds up to 6,000 MB/s.

I'm joined by Jake Myshrall from the "Film Runner" newsletter and we talk about the innovative ways von Sternberg used sound even in this early sound film, the prevalence of gallows humor throughout the second half of the film, and how various actors are adjusting to the use of sound in film.

By 1942, the skies over Germany were aflame with German fighters battling Allied bombers for the survival of Europe and the free world. Central to victory were the fighter planes of the Allies. At first they were obsolete and woefully inadequate. But with the advent of aircraft like the P-47 Thunderbolt and the P-51 Mustang, the tide of war was about to change. In this episode we hear the words of fighter aces Clarence "Bud" Anderson in his revolutionary P-51 and Francis "Gabby" Gabreski, flying the P-47 Learn more about your ad choices.

Pre-Show: John’s almost an empty-nester

On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we discuss Apple's apparent plan to launch a low-cost MacBook powered by an iPhone chip. Earlier this week, Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo reported that Apple is set to launch an all-new "affordable" MacBook powered by an iPhone chip. The machine is expected to feature a 13-inch display, the A18 Pro chip, and color options that include silver, blue, pink, and yellow. MacRumors first spotted evidence of such a device in backend code related to Apple Intelligence last summer, and subsequently confirmed its use of the A18 Pro chip. The machine features the identifier "Mac17,1." This would be the first Mac powered by an ‌‌iPhone‌‌ chip. To date, all Apple silicon Macs have contained M-series chips, which offer higher core counts, support for larger amounts of memory, and better external display support. The A18 Pro chip debuted in the iPhone 16 Pro last year. With the A18 Pro chip, the device is highly unlikely to feature Thunderbolt ports, more than 8GB of unified memory, and support for more than one external display. In line with how Apple tends to handle its other low-cost devices, the new MacBook could re-use the design and chassis of an older machine like the M1 MacBook Air to keep costs down and differentiate it from the ‌MacBook Air‌. Apple could also revive the simple "MacBook" moniker, separating it from the ‌MacBook Air‌ and MacBook Pro, and mirroring the iPad lineup, which simply has the ‌iPad‌ as the entry-level model.  According to Kuo, the new MacBook is expected to enter mass production late in the fourth quarter of 2025 or early in the first quarter of 2026, which situates launch in the first half of next year. We also discuss Apple's broader low-cost device strategy, how it seems to be positioning its device lineups going forward, and more.

On November 18, 2001, a woman returned home from church to a man burglarizing her apartment in Thunderbolt, GA. While wearing a pair of batting gloves, the man proceeded to sexually assault her and steal various items. In the days following, police found those items in the residence of a man named Sterling Flint. When the victim identified Flint as a possible perpetrator, Flint blamed a man named Sonny Bharadia, who had pressed charges against Flint days prior for stealing his car and threatening to kill Sonny and his family. A new photo array was presented to the victim, and she identified Sonny, however that photo array disappeared prior to trial. Nevertheless, Sonny was convicted and sentenced to life without the possibility of parole.
