    East St. Louis != St. Louis

  8. Comcast is weird, you need to stay on top of it and jump between promotional plans none of which have contracts. I only want internet, I added this and my bill went down $30. It wasn't mentioned in the article but they also severely limit what you can view if you aren't on your "home WiFi". And by home WiFi they mean home network, a VPN bypasses this limitation.

    Overall the application works just fine, and they threw in HBO as well.

    I did it as part of my job during the WannaCry/NotPetya outbreak. We were already patched. I was looking for anything else we could do / have to worry about.

    It honestly depends on the instructor if it is religious or not. I would love to find one that just ran us through the forms and focused on proper technique.

    I haven't found one.

  11. Re:It's Politics, Not Conspiracy on Scientists Study How Non-Scientists Deny Climate Change (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    Umm aren't we seeing damn near an article a week about how there are serious problems with the current peer review processes, or about replication problems in a majority of studies?

  12. Incorrect on porn sites, these days it is actually the Church sites you've got to be careful of.

  13. Even on the Internet the sarcasm in that one was obvious.

    I mean, Vader had a fucking *presence* about him when he walked into the room - enough to see palpable fear emanating from all the other actors in the room. You knew right up front that he was a badass.

    Yeah that's it that was what was bugging me about him. Poe gets dropped down in front of Kylo and starts wisecracking, zero fear what so ever. That would be fine IF Kylo was already established, then it would have does a lot in establishing Poe as a badass for looking him in the eye.

  21. Re:Also, see the A-10 on B-52s: The Plane That Refuses To Die · · Score: 1

    Dale Brown wrote a book on that, I remember being entertained and it does seem like an interesting.

    In a somewhat similar vein there is the B1BR proposal, replace engines with the F22 reduces range but increases speed, improve the RADAR and then cram it full of A to A missiles.

    Nah, if you are going to go that far you might as well try for a "Super Hornet". A new aircraft that looks a lot like the old one in pictures.
