Stop being an idiot. Break your back in two places, go on tramadol for 5+ years along with a muscle relaxant and then come back and tell me how you live your life. Sometimes, addiction isn't just to "feel good" it's also due to circumstances beyond your control. I couldn't live the life I do without pain killers, I'm physically addicted to it. My choices are: No pain killers and live a life of incredible pain, if I didn't decide just to end it all. Or pain killers and being addicted to them until I drop dead.
If you're popping pills to "feel good" you've got a problem. The only difference between a junkie looking for the next hit and me grabbing my next pill is the life we lead.
Pain killers in a lot of times are prescribed over strength. Doctors are more likely to give someone a strong opiate instead of something weaker mixed or supplemented with a mild muscle relaxant for example. Or give them a longer dose then what they should actually receive(a doctor here in ontario was disbarred for repeatedly giving HS students 60-day scrips -- which the kids would mainly sell), instead of giving say 7-14 days with a return appointment. In my day, high school kids and college kids were mostly hitting booze. But they've ramped up the punishments that parents get nailed their kids get caught drinking in some places. Which explains why the "get high" path is so much easier, and getting caught with a handful of pills is less likely then a micky(375ml), unless you're acting out of it.
Canada would have voted for Hillary Clinton at around 80%. Stop lying.
Major cities likely would, Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa. Get outside of them however, and not a chance. Keep in mind that nearly 1/3 of the population of Canada lives in the GTA(Toronto) area. There's a reason why the liberal party both federally, and in Ontario are suffering badly. Why Trudeau Jr's suddenly "great canada tour" became very quiet in the media when he went out west, while it was touted as the second coming in Southern Ontario. But it was only the second coming in the big cities where he went. He didn't go to small towns/cities like Woodstock, St. Thomas, Smith Falls(those are all blue collar cities FYI) or anything. I'll let you put the pieces together, it's not hard.
Possibly. That's the real question here, while I've read the case info provided in the article there's a bunch of things that are unclear until I get a chance to read the initial case. But, local police forces which is what this case is doesn't usually have the resources to backdoor things like this unless they're commonly known exploits. And if I remember the cases correctly, if they were seized as part of evidence in the original warrant and they were able to get the information off the drives without his co-operation it wouldn't matter anyway. Since it would have already proven that he was in possession of CP. So that doesn't really matter, in the rare cases where something like this happens they can seal part of the court case to protect the disclosure of things like that which would lead to the compromising of on-going investigations.
The real thing is is what you pointed out though, where the proof. There is none really. The prosecution states they have "known hashes" but that doesn't mean much beyond that. It's more likely that the sister saw actual CP, and that's it. That in itself leads weight to it, but it still doesn't mean too much without the actual evidence.
I wouldn't be surprised if this keeps moving through the court system, or their lawyer simply tells them to take the contempt charge which he'll likely serve on weekends and get on with his life. The contempt charge itself could be an entirely new ball of wax especially if it's contested which wouldn't surprise me. The lawyer(s) in question could make their career defining case off of it. Since then the court will have to prove that he knowingly engaged in contempt.
All you need is a lawyer who's willing to argue that police lost evidence of this during arrest/warrant sweep. Happens quite often and there's a lot of case law on it.
Come to Canada, guess what happens when they can buy houses(or family who can do it for them)? The price of housing goes through the roof, and now you can't afford a house or rent. It gets compounded because of the outside real estate investment that goes on too. Vancouver is one of the worst places for this double-whammy, and then there's the whole "empty house" problem(8.8% in Vancouver). Watch Seattle(and Toronto, Ontario), since Vancouver put in a foreign buyers tax they've started buying up there as well.
Yeah too bad here in the west it's swung so far to the side of girls, that boys are suffering. And people in positions of power don't believe it has anything to do with female centric education plans, systems, etc.
How the hell could I prove something like that? I have no access to netflix internal statistics....
And you made the assumption just like her that it's review bombing. But we're supposed to take her word on it right? Seems that this is more along the lines of the trend in media and with elites that women are a super-protected class and you should believe everything they say, especially when there's multiple articles all saying exactly the same thing. You really have to believe her. After all, if you're critical of a women it's sexism, misogyny, conservatives or the alt-right. Just like ghostbusters last year.
But I guess it doesn't really matter. I just find it fishy that people who liked her previous stuff would all of a sudden think that the new show was a stinking pile of garbage.
Really? Let's compare it to video games, or a book written by a popular author. You can have an track record of great stuff, and then pump out shit. It happens often enough. You can see that with movies as well, especially the old "curse of the sequel." I don't find it fishy at all. Take a look at these two games: Dragon Age: Origins and Dragon Age 2. The studio in question(Bioware) had a track record of decades of making great games, and managed to piss off their die hard fans with a single release because it was an absolute stinking pile of garbage.
She also draws big crowds, so some people clearly like her. But if you only read reddit you would never know this. Every single article that mentions her is completely bombarded with posts saying she is the worst comedian they have ever seen. Not just "she sucks, so I don't pay attention to her", but really "she sucks and I hate her with a passion, so I will mention how bad she is at every possible opportunity" dislike.
The local yuk-yuks also draws huge crowds. But that doesn't really translate into anything. It also doesn't help that every time she opens her mouth, she's simply stolen the jokes, gags and so on from someone else and that has a tendency of pissing people off too. Especially when she tries to tout herself as "unique" and boy there's a lot of unique comedians like her out there these days almost down to the same act.
Obviously it is impossible to know what is really going on, but it does not seem completely ridiculous that there was some coordinated review bombing.
There's that assumption again. I'll just remind you about ghostbusters again, and how she along with the actors and director all claimed it was "review bombing" instead of just a steaming pile of shit that failed so badly that Sony took a $100-250m write-off on it. After all, if it was such a great show then all those fans you say she has would have already reversed it right? But that's not what's happening.
Should be very easy for you and netflix to prove then. After all, youtube does this already. You have to watch(aka play) a percentage of the video in a steady stream for your up/downvote to be counted outside of what's actually displayed. The fact that netflix isn't showing this to be the case, and that the media has simply run with the "review bombing" and giving Schumer a platform to cry over while screaming "harassment/sexism/alt-right/etc" says that it's not a case of that. But people believe that it was simply terrible and were more vocal than normal, especially how much she and netflix tried to hype it up.
This isn't any different then the ghostbusters trailer flop, followed by the movie flop. She along with the other actors and director then went flailing their arms screaming "sexism/misogyny/etc" and the media started falling all over itself promoting that narrative. Despite the fact that it was simply a shit movie, the trailer was shit as well, and people in general hated it.
Back when I was a little boy (Windows User/Admin) you couldn't make changes to the registry as a non-privileged user. Did this actually change? Is it really possible for a low privileged user to modify the registry?
It doesn't appear so. I just made a non-privileged user account to see if I could modify the registry. Every time it asked for elevated access and the administrator password. Using their proof-of-concept script, I can't get it to do anything either. Regedit always asks for admin privileges and an administrator password. It appears that this only works if you're using a lower setting of the UAC, have it turned off, or have the notifications disabled for it.
Strangely this change is suddenly coming after Amy Schumer's latest comedy flop. And the claims of "review bombing" of course, every person that I've heard talk about watching it said it was a steaming pile of shit and worthy of it's 1 star review. A few people I know said it was so bad they wished they could have gotten back those precious minutes of their life.
The median range where I live is around $38k/year(poverty wage is $19k/year). The average wage across Canada around $49k/year and $52k/year in the US. So yes, $60k/year is wealthy. Now maybe if you live somewhere, where rent for 550sqft is $2000/mo and you're paying $15/lbs for kale, yeah $60k isn't going to reach very far. In my neck of the woods, you could not only live comfortably on $60k but live a lifestyle beyond the scope of your neighbors in the average middle class neighborhood. And to be realistic, at $38k/year most people in this area are barely making ends meet because wages aren't tied to inflation, but the basic costs for fuel, food, and so on have gone through the roof in the last 5 years.
Well if there's one guy shooting, then sure. But what if dozens guys shoot 100-200 round per minutes, that should do it.
CIWS systems are around 2500-8000 rounds per minute and weigh 13,000lbs-24,000lbs and that's required to knock an explosive or aircraft out of the air. Just think on it for a minute, because you're now arguing about spraying an area that could have friendlies with a few thousand rounds falling from the air. Which is why things like patriot missiles work better, it limits the possibility of friendly fire incidents.
Well, we're talking about a War environment. I'm surprised there's any consideration about this.
Not always, in many cases we're talking about a defensive environment. The article in question is talking about an operator being able to determine the nature of the threat. Which also include random attacks which don't fall into the area of war at all, but individuals seeing a military as a viable attack target.
Unless there's a laser with every squad, I doubt it'll be a solution (but then again, is there a patriot missile with every squad?).
These type of systems are usually semi-mobile or fixed. There usually isn't a patriot missile with every squad, but there's usually some form of defense system with every company or covering several squads.
Smaller area coverage fallout if you're talking patriot vs CIWS. CIWS are basically spray and play systems, you can be talking miles of falling rounds while an exploding patriot can be tiny. While the newer self-destructing rounds limit that, you still have the obvious hazards.
Ever gone skeet shooting? Not as easy as it looks. On top of that bullets have a higher chance of killing someone on the ground vs a missile used as an intercept device. Someone can still be killed in either case though, one of the reasons that lasers to shoot them down are being pushed. The other is lasers would be far cheaper and have a higher hit:miss ratio.
Well, in Japan, they have just about the highest suicide rate in the developed world. Maybe we don't want to emulate them too closely.
Has a lot to do with their culture and work ethic. People who can't conform to the ideals presented by society look for the easiest way out. It's not dissimilar to what happens in North America or Europe when there's a serious depression and people start losing their jobs. The suicide rate goes up, so does the murder-suicide rate because people see no way out. It's also the same reason why here in the west that you see things like 15.0-35.9:100,000 for male suicide rates here in the west, but female suicide rates are usually under 5.5:100,000. Or why people are calling male suicides here in the west the "silent epidemic" especially when there's sudden spike in female suicide rates and everyone(media/politicians/etc) freaks the fuck out.
You don't have a right-wing write nationalist president now. If you think you do, you're either an idiot, or so grossly misinformed(aka living in a bubble) that you deserve to be lied to. Besides, I'm sure it would have been better that Hillary was elected right? She only wanted to start WWIII, bomb Russia, and was actively pushing to attack them in Syria during Obama's last few years in office. Yeah great plan, good candidate. I'm sure you'd have been lining up to do your country proud and fight the good fight. Not even touching on the massive corruption. Or did you fail to notice that all those clinton foundation donations have dried up?
There are plenty areas of the US that are worse then in the 1980's, there are a lot which are better too. It's the same in Canada, but there's been a serious problem with urban decay in most western countries like Canada, and in the EU compared running it towards what happened in the late 1970's in the US.
Thus you are irate, when it is possible, even probable, that nobody knew of the potential for infection.
Yes of course just like the other AC that spouts off shit and has no idea of what they're talking about. Never mind the big, huge, gigantic announcement, on the TV, radio, magazines, newspapers, pamphlets sent home with kids, warning notices stuck to doors stating that there was a chickenpox outbreak and if you had even the slightest belief that you were infected, had come in contact with someone who was infected(and developed symptoms later), and etc., etc., etc., you should not be out in public.
Hate to break it to you kid, but this was less then 10 years after the last polio case in North America. Unlike today where people seem to have the belief that serious infectious diseases are gone, which works very well for things like TB. Which of course requires all kinds of new things especially if you do volunteer work.
It takes a special kind of idiot to (a) regard the 'media' as a monolithic entity (all the same people, sure!) and (b) heavily imply that Trump doesn't lie. Seriously.... LOL.
It takes a special kind of idiot to not see that there are organizations like Journolist around which exist to drive ideological narratives. That the media has been caught doing this numerous times. Including in other media like games media(see gamejournopros) Or media groups which will publish political propaganda directly from political parties as gospel truths. The DNC did that with multiple media organizations in the last election. The Obama administration did that multiple times, it became so common that the WH Press corps., openly wrote a letter about it. In most of the west, the 4th estate is broken and the people in it, are nothing but puppet mouthpieces trading favors for favors.

You can post animations, but they don't automatically play unless you have it enabled. It's the same for videos if you embed them.

Meaning the account I use is a "local power user" account. What? You didn't know you could still make those with a little bit of effort?

Now it's time for you to understand the difference when "Trump says something" and when an entire arm of a political party uses their weight in order to push an ideological view point, and the media accepts it as truth and repeats it. Or turns around and forwards it to the party in question to ensure it has ideological purity. Keep in mind, that in the beltway +90% of the reporters are democrat voters, donate directly to the DNC, and hold either democrat or progressive views. That drops to 80% outside of the beltway. Time for you to grow up a bit perhaps, and realize just how much institutional power the left has held for decades and why there is such a backlash brewing across the west.
