Oh don't forget he's also a mysoginst, a xenophobe and anti-semite. What's that you say? He's the first president to have had a campaign run by a woman. He's married to a foreigner and his daugher is married to a jewish guy. This crap really pisses me off... the left keeps shouting and name calling, now they've lapped themselves and actually believe the names they started using. What is true? He is unashamedly pro-American.
If you happen to have an iPhone 6 and can get internet for the âoeupgradeâ to FM radio, you can get your news. How much is a FM radio these days? And a purpose built radio will work head and shoulders above a radio inside a cell phone with no antenna. Sheesh.
The first rule of a fiat currency is that you must compel people to use it. Even if that means shutting down access to other currencies (china today) or making trading in precious metals illegal (USA, 1933). Bonus points from making the world use your fiat currency (USA 1947), and by the way, you may have to invade other countries of start a few coups along the way to ensure they continue to use your fiat currency.
Wish I had mod points. Yes, this exactly..... remove some laws. From Atlas Shrugged...
There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced nor objectively interpreted—and you create a nation of law-breakers—and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the system, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with
The value would be in fleet operators. Drive from one warehouse to the next (think UPS hubs) and swap out the batteries. A company would keep batteries on charge and switch them out when the truck pulled in. Even better, put the batteries in teh trailer. That way the tractor could hitch to the next trailer and get going again while his trailer was being offloaded and recharged. Tractor would have a smaller battery that would allow it a limited range (ie around the warehouse property)
We are all guilty of using P@assword1, P@ssword2, etc.... but I can't keep committing a complex password to memory every 90 days. So here's the deal... let the user decide. Users are free to pick simple passwords and the system will decide to make them change those passwords every 90 days. If the user picks a complex password they won't have to change it again. My bet is that the users will come up with a/great/ complex password ONCE.
Yeah, 'cause a la carte is working so well in the CATV world. I've got 357 channels of which I only care about 5 or 6. I see your point, but for $99 a year, I get my money's worth out of the shipping and the music and TV is just a plus. Their music service *is* annoying as they have pushed some songs into my play list that I didn't want and won't let me delete and they keep moving songs I do like to their music unlimited service which I won't pay for.
I second your backup plan as well. Here's another upshot.... Say the stay home mom wants to homeschool their kids in the future and the State decides that since she doesn't have a high school diploma she cannot educate her own kids. It could happen the way society is going. After all, they aren't/our/ kids, they are The State's kids.
Here's a perspective for you.... Nixon took the US off the gold standard in 1971. This meant that the dollar was no longer locked to gold at $35/oz and was free to lose value. This is the same dollar that was used exclusively in international trade per the Bretton Woods agreement in 1947. So OPEC, looking to continue getting the same amount of gold for a barrel of oil, tried to negotiate with the US for 2 years. In 1973, the simply stopped selling oil in the "flexible" dollars. We US citizens were told that OPEC raised the price of oil, but in fact, it was the US government that depreciated the/value/ of the dollar.
What about a girl completing high school who just wants to marry and have some kids? Being a homemaker doesnt seem to be one of the prescribed choices! This is the central planner way of micromanaging everyone's life. If the kids show competency required to finish high school, give them their diploma. Not everyone knows what they want to be, nor does everyone actually become what they profess to want to be. I remember as a kid hearing about communist Russia dictating who would be what when they grew up. Seems we are moving in that direction - for the betterment of the dear citizens of course.
Although you are A.C. and probably won't ever see this.... thanks for the pointer to night of the long knives. It is clearer to me now. I've just read about Ernst Roehm.
Wish I had mod points.... so many times I see people calling the NAZI's "fascists" when they were in fact socialists. Yes Martha, socialism killed millions of Jews and militarized an entire economy. But the sell job these days is that socialism is this nicey nice thing that takes care of it's citizens.
Moving forward in which direction? Moving towards a more free society or moving towards a society in which everyone is compelled to do what the government says? Having an educated population is a wonderful idea, but it brought about taxes and schools that are self motivated and have lost sight of what is best for students.... but those schools were touted in the early 1900's by the/progressives/.
Yes to parent.... the rough cut lumber was wet and green. Houses built using the Balloon construction method required that wall studs be as high as the building (3 stories high means 30' long timbers). When the lumber dried and shrank, it would cause the floors to buckle and the houses always squeaked when you walked across the floor. The shorter lengths of dimensional lumber and kiln drying solved alot of those issues.
I wonder if the person who sued Home Depot knows that a "8 foot wall stud" is 93-5/8"? or that 12" ceramic tile is actually 30cm, not 30.5cm. Or that 2" pipe isn't 2" OD? What a maroon.
Germany stuck it's head in the sand since WW2. They are in such denial about the Nazi time that they don't teach it in school.... just in time for the last of the people who were alive in WW2 to die and not warn the current generation.
I think that the US and western nations have been screwing over and double crossing a lot of these 3rd world countries. The anger at the West is there, and Islam's violent components are exploited by their leaders to motivate their people to attack. Was there a religious aspect to the Japanese Kamikaze attacks?

Really, nothing to see here......
I fully expected their wireless charger to be something unique and incompatible with Qi. Glad they didn't go that way.
IF the phone turns on when you are checking for stray hairs, obviously you are holding it wrong.

Isn't the German motto if you aren't cheating you aren't trying hard enough? Und ja, ich spreche Deutsch.
UPS does the same artifical delay tactic. I once saw a label on a UPS package that said "Don't deliver SDS first day".

I will gladly rent my O/S from microsoft. At long last, I loved Big Brother.

Don't even get them started on nominal pipe sizes!!!
The truck's trailer straddling the lane was not recognized as a low bridge???? lol.
Don't commit a crime????
