  1. Re:Sellers' state should be the taxed side on Tech Giants Urge Congress To 'Protect Entrepreneurs' From Supreme Court Ruling (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    At that point, with the sale complete, he mails it to me.

    No. The sale isn't complete until the goods are delivered. Usually, the seller hires a third party to see to that part on their behalf.

    That's just daffy.

    And yet that's what South Dakota wanted, and they just won in court. Which is why it's time for congress to step in.

    usually the sale is complete when the carrier picks up. if lost in transit the claim is with the carrier not the seller. unless, the seller is willing to work with the buyer. what clusterfu*k any state creates is a good reason not to sell to people in that state.

  2. creating the "surprise" Trump win in 2016. on Facebook Users Cry 'Censorship' After Being Told Which Russian Troll Pages They Liked (gizmodo.com) · · Score: 1

    my view is the 2016 election night was very similar to the 2000 election night. between 10pm and 2am very little update to vote totals was taking place. then as in 2016 close states ended up going republican by not a very wide margin. the election winner did not win popular vote. the Russians had media bots. heck, one thing yet to be explained is why many of the frequent talking heads for trump on the news programs were Russians. anyway, as i felt in 2000 , i again felt in 2016, the forces that wanted the republican to win found a not very legal way to do it. not sure how, but they did. if the election had been left to just the voters clinton would be president.

  3. google recently axed project tango which was very innovative to begin ARcore which is very much like apples ARkit.

    the introduction of a new experience that does not yet work is one long time feature of opera products.

  5. maybe he did it? on John McAfee's Belize Home Burns To Ground · · Score: 1

    my first thought is he is unable to sell it at ridiculous price and tired of upkeep and high taxes so he torches it to collect insurance.
