Let me ask you a question: you can sell a product for a dollar, 40% off which gets eaten up by middle men. OR you can sell it for 70 cents, directly to your customers; which makes more money for you? What are the middle men going to try to do to keep 'their' 40% Maybe put a bad spin on it and claim the musician are worse off? maybe lie to the musician to generate outrage?
You letting someone feed right into your narrative and you keep lapping it up.
"Just because the wealthy have greater wealth now than they did in the past (shifting the mean income) doesn't mean two cars, a tv, and the means to feed your children is no longer middle class."
Those have nothing to do with middle class.
Everyone wants to believe they are middle class...But this eagerness...has led the definition to be stretched like a bungee cord — used to defend/attack/describe everything...The Drum Major Institute...places the range for middle class at individuals making between $25,000 and $100,000 a year. Ah yes, there's a group of people bound to run into each other while house-hunting.
In my experience* the power the child the less likely that child's parents will be involved with the school and the child's homework. And it isn't just because they may be working and not have time.
That's incredibly misleading and not what they are teaching. Stop believing facebook post, you dolt. People who don't understand math rail again good math teaching techniques. hmm, maybe that's the problem.
Who every modded you up is just as ignorant as you are.
really? sheesh. In 1975 I built a device that shut the volume off the TV is the gain got too high. My parents loved it. Never did get find all the screws afterwords.
I should have patented it, but what do 11 year olds know?
no, people believe it's homogenus. However all facts point to that being incorrect.
But. hey, don't let facts determine your narrative just by into popular culture.
What is the Obama administration to be blamed for? hmm?
The changes made the bill more specific.
First and foremost, the bill introduces a different conceptual approach to prohibiting mass spying under Section 215. Unlike the Senate version, which tries to stop the mass collection of calling records by mandating that the records sought "pertain to" an agent of a foreign power or their activities—an approach that we’ve worried about because “pertains to” and “relevant” are so similar—the House version mandates that a "specific selection term" (currently defined as uniquely describing a person, entity, or account) be the "basis for the production" of the records. The overall language may be stronger than in the old USA Freedom Act, but "specific selection term" must be further defined as "entity" could be construed expansively. After the order is filed, the government can obtain up to "two hops"—which may be too expansive for many investigations—from the selection term.
What VA scandal? oh the one where the media talked up a few people who complained and then investigation has to keep widening to find something, anything, wrong?
I've seen those before.... pubs create a scandal, search for anything to blame on the president. hmmm. Oh, right Clinton.
Considering what seems to have been change, it's not 'Gutted' it's different. The term gutted is just being used for FUD. for example:

It's like talking to some one and they go glassy eyed. You might as well just stop talking mid sentence.
" since you don't get the explicit notification of now-looking-at-screen, now-looking-back-up attentional state that you get with smartphones." so? If they miss something ether they didn't care or they need to pay attention.

except they aren't doing that.
Merlin is making a beg deal and trying to spin it because Youtube is going directly to the musician instead of using Merlin.
This is BETTER for the musician because there are less, to no, middlemen between the musician and the money.
Yes, you experience clearly overrides all the data.
well done, Cap't anecdote.

Mathematics is next to Godliness. Hmmm.
You play GURPSs. Any opinion you have is therefor useless, if not just plain wrong.
Please explain how recognizing where the market is going and telling the SEC is evil?

Name one thing he said he would do that he didn't try to do, only to be shut down by the republicans.
He has done a lot, you just get angry when you narrative is in jeopardy from facts.
A trivial search on the internet would show you that.

No he is not more conservative then Reagan, not by a long shot. Obama is moderate.

Nope. The children had no choice. That's why they get brought up.

Where have you been in the last 20 years?
People pay to beta test now.
I think BT 3 and 4. can do 25MBits.
Granted, 4 wasn't out during Glass development.
