So many universities are racist against Asians even by your definition; while by my definition nearly all are racist.
facebook is the one being racist by treating some races different than others
Racism is only present when one group is believed to be inherently superior to others. The fight to mitigate socioeconomic barriers for underrepresented groups does not come close to fitting the definition of racism. It does fit the definition of inclusive discrimination, which so far has been the only successful way of fighting institutional exclusive discrimination.
I just did a manual update yesterday and I now have 1511 10586.545.
I have old hardware, according to a site I read old hardware get the update last when doing auto updates.

So the Democratic Party is exactly what I thought it was!
Tim S.
Applause for changing the subject away from the very damaging contents of these emails. There are persuasion courses that charge top dollar to teach these things. The Democratic Party in America is not what everyone thought it was. They are racist, elitist, election-fixing, democracy-shitting-on assholes. People all over the world have been shocked by just how evil they were revealed to be. But on stories like this, change the subject as often as possible, that's a solid move. Get people talking about ANYTHING other than what we all saw the Democratic Party really means.

To get idea of the scope of the misconception, a single supertanker pumps more air pollution into the atmosphere in a single day than all the cars in the world, VW diesels included.
You're the one with the misconceptions here. As per the above source, shipping only accounts for 2,2% of global CO2 emissions. Besides, you're the one with the misconceptions here - your idea came out of a Guardian article that focused on sulfur oxide emissions to the exclusion of everything else. This is ridiculously misleading, because cars emit next to no SOx.
I'm not defending VW, but pointing out that this VW bullshit is a distraction
And yet you're making factually inaccurate claims in order to trivialize VW's role in willfully deceiving regulators and their own customers around the world.
What could be more suitable to guard your drone aircraft's landing field and associated infrastructure than drone vehicles?
Sounds good; but, it might be funny to suggest American Bees as a defense measure.
For years, I have been told the USA is being invaded by African Bees; I think maybe American Bees might want some payback.
It's 2016, why are you defragging? Go by an SSD already!!!
I thought I gave a reason in the title of my post; it is a OLD PC.
It is NOT worth anything to upgrade its speed.
I decided that I really should see Windows 10; but, I saw no reason to pay for it; so I upgraded Windows 7 32 bit to Windows 10 32 bit.
My main compliant is how slow it boots up and shuts down compared to Windows 7; defragging will likely fix that.
Tim S.
It is NOT as bad as I feared; but, it is slower than I hoped it would be. Windows 7 was faster; maybe after I defrag the speed will go up.
I now have to check and see which programs fail to work.
NOTE: If you have a NON windows software firewall installed; you really likely need to uninstall it before upgrading.
NOTE2: The TinyWall software firewall front-end did NOT work for me on Windows 10; even though their website says it should.
Tim S.
Depends on whether it was parked correctly; and, if not is the car or you at fault?
Tim S.
If my Tesla Model S is parked on the street, and some truck smashes into it, sending my car onto the sidewalk where it rolls over a pedestrian... is it Tesla's fault?
GATT really meant a Gentleman's Agreement to Talk and Talk. That is likely why the WTO came into being.
Tim S.
I feel the same about the World Trade Organization. Why are THEY making decisions for Americans?
The WTO is the successor to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT). This was an attempt to set international institutions in place to regulate international trade in order to make it easier to get trade moving. It was an attempt to provide an international framework in which countries could sort out their differences on trade matters peacefully without resorting to trade wars, protectionism, and to prevent a repeat of the same economic conditions that ultimately led to two world wars.
It takes a very bad farmer to starve to death.
Tim S.
Funny is that now the Leavers from the group you've described (rural, small towns, not educated) will have it much tougher during and after the crisis. The poor will starve first.
"Earth would need to reach half of all the solar systems in the Milky Way"
I think all the people is science should know there is ONLY one Solar System in the Milky Way.
There is a lot of other star systems in the Milky Way.
Tim S.
I agree; but, I wonder more about how old of hardware is it running on.
And, does the hardware and Operating System still have good support at a good price.
Tim S.
Great just what we need a new bunch of Lunatics editing Wikipedia.
For the grammar or humor impaired Luna means moon. Lunatics could then mean moon people.

I believe the Saudi Arabia does NOT need our American military equipment.
They really do NOT have enough trained native people to support all that they have purchased.
I think the real reason they buy it is to bribe the US Government to defend their country in case they need it.
And, to have equipment on hand for US troops to use when we send them.
Tim S.
I'd say "Sell them, and you'll never buy another piece of American military equipment again, and there won't be a single US soldier within your borders within six months."
As oil's importance fades, I think the response to anything from Saudi Arabia should "Fuck you, fuck you very very much."
To be fair it's actually pretty weird to know 9 separate people named John and even weirder to have only them and a couple small local businesses in you phone contacts.
I agree Islam is the problem; what we need to do if find Muslims who believe in having a secular state and have no plans to help any Islamic State supporters to stay hidden. All other Muslims, need to be removed from Western World and sent back to the Middle East.
Tim S.
In the wake of the terror attacks, there are already complaints about security failures at European airports. Because the attacks were committed outside of secure areas, there's already talk about extending security farther out. Of course, anything that's not secured is potentially a soft target. Taken to the extreme, this could mean searching anyone upon leaving their homes. This is impractical and these additional security measures won't stop terrorism. They don't address the real issue. Yet I fear these measures are coming, and will extend the reach of surveillance while further eroding privacy.
If you want to stop terrorism, you must identify the issue, and then directly address that issue. A disproportionate amount of attacks are committed by Muslims. The typical response is that most Muslims aren't violent. While that's true, the moderate followers of Islam enable the extremists Muslims to carry out their actions. This has been elegantly stated by Sam Harris, a brilliant neurologist. Instead of being politically correct, it's important to confront the real issue. And that issue is Islam.
Stopping terrorism means stopping Islam. It's not bigoted because being Muslim is a choice. Being Arab or Persian is out of the control of a person. Belief in a fairy tale like the Muslim religion is a choice and a dangerous one. We wouldn't take belief in Zeus seriously in the present day, so why defend Islam? We would be better off extending surveillance and profiling to Muslims. Better still would be to altogether ban Islam. In order to be secure, the root cause of the problems must be addressed. That root cause is Islam, which must be banned.

Vehical emissions account for less than 1% of all air pollution sources.
Not true. Passenger cars and light trucks account for about 10% of the global carbon footprint. And unlike you, I have sources to prove it.

If the usa forces it's laws and culture on the world, then why isn't the rest of the world is more civilized?
The EU doesn't have nukes to launch, there nukes are under control of the UN.

Still waiting on that one.

That's all I have to say.
IQ != knowledge
You would be surprised how high people are tested in IQ tests that have completely bollocks attitudes to certain things.
You need to define best, greatest, and classic before you can go further in your quest.
And not in the least decide what the definition of the term science fiction is (it's not as easy as it sounds).
