So move here. I would suggest somewhere in the south, like Alabama, if crime is your big concern. They put up with almost nothing there. The poor are well-maintained by the police force.
I think a scientific study might show that welfare, truly, solves poverty in the same way that arsenic solves cancer. We have to deepen our understanding of the problem. Instead of welfare, give people a nice, clean place to live and a guarantee that they will have food in their refrigerator and an economy which will produce a job for them if they are willing to become equipped to do a job. The very small number of CHARITIES which do things along these lines that I have seen have stunning results in comparison to results from government-administered welfare programs. They also spend a lot less money doing it.
Look, I've been, in one way or another, poor for most of my life. I have had money at various points and lost it doing stupid things. I intend to have money again now that I have a family. I believe that anyone with enough grit can make it. My wife and myself, we were both homeless travelling hippies when we met. In fact, she recently wrote a short blog about this. We wouldn't have gotten off the street without some help from others, so I doubt we'll ever be as ungrateful as the typical wealthy are. I do not consider the rank and file at Apple, Google, or any other major tech firm to be wealthy, ruling class, or rich. These same progressives who are bitching about their perceived affluence would also shit their pants if these tech companies were to pay them wages comparable to the folks protesting. The more a company makes, the more a society makes, the more its lowest level members should make. That is the way capitalists have always said it should be, and it's really only when they pervert their own notion by giving CEOs 500 to 10,000% of what they pay their janitors that the corruption and bad decision-making begin to take place. Society rewards hard work but it too often rewards asskissing and outright lying, as well. Just my thoughts. I know my family will be fine no matter what; I always seem to figure something out. Still getting on our feet, now, but I'm willing to bet my income will be 300-450% of what it was last year. It takes faith, it takes grit. If I hadn't done it before, though, I don't think I'd feel equipped to do it now, so I recommend anyone who really wants to change their life to take a business class or something along those lines, because you will truly never break the economic chains as long as you have a boss profiting enjoying the fruits of your labor.
The major difference between my current model and the one we had growing up is price and brand. That one was a GE, weighed about the same, lasted roughly 19 years if I'm not mistaken (my mom hates buying new things), and cost something like $200 80s money. This one I got as an adult at Big Lots for $40 2013 money, and it is a Westinghouse. It has roughly the same functionality. So I'm with you, there is no reason to have a shitty microwave. It's either early or I'm really annoying.
Ten years is a long fucking time to this generation. I hope that in ten years strength in numbers, intellect, and courage give this country the balls to erase the government and use the significant advances in communications technology to build a better version of it. I also hope that myself, my wife, and my son are far, far away from these shores when that happens, because even though it will be universally accepted as the only true and lasting solution, it will be ugly and dangerous.
The most respectable conservative I ever met in person was a cross-dressing bisexual. He was a conservative republican because 1) he believed the government had no place in our personal lives (if you can't agree with that, you are not an American, you are something else, and you are a motherfucker) and 2) he believed that government had no incentive to save him money as long as they could decide how much of his money they would take and not the inverse.
Well, okay, 11-27 aren't considered the bill of rights, but within them is the right of women to vote and a revision of the racist counting of black people and the end of slavery, so I feel they are every bit as important.
It would be amusing if it weren't so detestably obvious, friend. It almost seems to me like they kicked off the year 2000 with a list of targets known as the bill of rights. The following no longer offer any legitimate protection I, II, IV, and VI. That only leaves 23 and we're only 14 years into the century. We were probably silly to count on a legal document in the first place. We should have heeded the words of our forefathers and hung these bastards as far back as 1913.
Slashdot Mirror
My apologies.
Graphics development is a lot of time and work. Paid positions doing it obviously produce better results.
Well, that would seem like cheating if you could do it in multiplayer. They should have the functionality but most major servers would disallow it.
I don't like the train signals myself, but then I really prefer the road vehicles and I am pushing for a road-vehicles-only server on N-Ice.org.
That would be awesome. Owen Rudge should interview him about it.
Is that OSS or free of charge?
Oh shit, check this out.

Right. Might have been better to have had a small child do this.
And he SURE PLAYS SOME MEAN PINBALL.
(vote up if you get this reference)
Maybe the real problem is his dishwasher, be they human or bot!

The judge is not a jury. It's a district judge who is reversing the decision, not another, equal jury.

The USA PATRIOT Act, that is, sorry.
Where were these turds when Bush rammed through the PATRIOT Act? My eyes are gonna roll out of my head on this one.
