If you believe that Democrats want the rich to pay their fair share, take a look at all the tax raises that Hollywood and Wall Street get from the Democrats.
Democrats are for big business just as Republicans are, just a different part of big business.
[MODERATORS] I am used to being down-modded unfairly because I frequently go against Slashdot group-think. Instead of down-modding me why not actually give readers a chance to come up with an intelligent response instead? Is it because the opposing position is basically indefensible? Or are the supporters of the right so stupid that they cannot string together a few sentences that (a) make sense and (b) support their position?
Perhaps you should rethink your methods of argument, as your post comes across as quite flamebait, and I would have downmodded you.
This "study" is from a Libertarian "think tank" (can you say oxymoron?)
So, because Libertarians have a different political opinion than you, they must all be stupid, is that really the way you want to portray yourself? It is very likely that you aren't a Libertarian because you don't understand the platform, not because the platform is stupid.
I am sure there are other examples, but I feel like I am losing intelligence arguing with you, so it is not worth it to me.
Or are we to believe that Putin's ordering of a criminal investigation will really find the people who did it who were widely believed to be acting on Putin's orders?
The price of college is based (loosely) on how much it costs to educate someone. As the costs of labor increase, wouldn't you expect that professors salaries would go up as well, or would you rather just lock them into a state mandated salary?
This is not to say though that college is way to expensive, I totally agree there. I have two kids that in a few years will be looking at college, and I will encourage both of them to go to Germany.
Someone will shoot her while she is out walking with her boyfriend in the snow. It will be ruled a horrible crime, and the parties involved will be moved somewhere less public where they will be handed envelopes filled with money.
I base all my decisions on ACs responding to themselves. Splitting a single post up into three posts all acting like different people agreeing makes an AC look that much more trustworthy.
TCP Port 110 or 143, but preferably 995 993. TCP Port 465 if you want any kind of email security. Though it is quite easy to read documentation and get all the ports that are needed internally and externally:
Read the comment you originally responded to again. He wasn't comparing Apple to Microsoft. He was comparing Desktop to Laptop. It doesn't matter how powerful Apple's desktops are, desktops are inherently more powerful than laptops. The Mac Pro is more powerful than the Macbook Pro, and always will be (for the same generation). You can't get 32 or 64 GB of ram in a laptop (yet), you can't get 4 hard drives in a laptop (likely ever).
You came up with the relative power, it was a strawman that wasn't in the original post you replied to. There was no need to respond to the strawman you came up with.
This is one point s/he made:
windows is still king of compatibility
This is the other point:
For desktops on the other hand, where you might actually need some power
The point was that desktops are more powerful than laptops, not that Windows is more powerful than Unix. The other point was that Windows is still king of compatibility. Can you refute either of those points? Your response didn't address either of them, and I attempted to point that out to you.
I know all about what Apple designed, but that has 0 bearing on the comment you replied to.
As far as the Dell $600 computer, it depends, at different times Dell has come out with $600 computers that run circles around the current at the time Apple models, so just writing them off as POS is silly. Also, why would you compare a $600 Dell instead of a $2000 Dell that would beat the pants off of the $3000 Macbook pro?
It seems that you are the moron here. You are judging information based on the source, not the content, therefore you are the one who can't see past a book's cover. I am giving plenty of information, you are the one too blind to see it.
Are you really going to argue that a desktop isn't more powerful than a laptop?
The comment was that Windows is the king of compatibility and that desktops are where the power is (faster/more drives, more powerful processors, more memory).
It appears that with smoking around children at least, you are wrong.
I never said I had no problem with it, I actually quite clearly indicated that smoking, drinking, drugs, whatever IS child abuse. You are the one trying to argue that it isn't, though it has been determined by the state to be so.
I haven't made a big deal out of forcing anything. I stated that it is murder, and as murder, there are some reasons for it to be acceptable in society, and some conditions which make it less serious, but it isn't any less of killing.
I absolutely didn't remain silent on the slow poisoning of children, I actually clearly stated the opposite:
A mother that smokes, drinks, does drugs while knowing she is pregnant is considered to be committing child abuse.
When there are many people who can't have children who struggle to adopt, abortion should not be happening. Your argument is that the person who gives birth should be saddled with the support of a child, as if the father isn't when the woman decides to have the child against his wishes. There are other ways than abortion, and acting like none of them exist is pretty shady.
Telling a woman that murder is wrong is intrusion into her personal life?
Identifying that human brain activity begins at 12 weeks is saying that it is a human life at that point, so killing it should be considered murder. A mother that smokes, drinks, does drugs while knowing she is pregnant is considered to be committing child abuse. I don't know where your obese argument is headed, but I don't see that as causing problems for the child. If you want to try and argue that child abuse is perfectly acceptable, so murder should be perfectly acceptable, perhaps you should rethink your argument?
Slashdot Mirror
Do you perhaps mean long pig?
This here is one of the Russian trolls. It is all a western conspiracy to devalue Russian principles!
Maybe Hillary will win the democrat nomination, one of the other people Republican, and we'll have a Trump/Sanders ticket. Wouldn't that be something.

According to the latest numbers, he is gaining on Hillary (liarly?), and only 6 points behind her.

Perhaps you meant page 7 or 8 (by the numbers on the bottom of the pages) or pages 11 or 12 (by the actual page number from the PDF).

How many days do they have once fired from a company to get someone to take it over?
How does that apply to the original comment? Being fired =/= quitting.

I tried to leave the advanced degrees to collages, but they just sat there on the wall looking pretty.

Around here, there is a guy that runs for sheriff (never really cared if he won) named Moran, it is entirely possible that the poster is a joke.

All his signs say "Moran for sheriff", I always read it as Moron for sheriff and wondered why anyone would vote for a moron for sheriff.
