A) "Dubya" did not have the power to spend money that was not approved by Congress. B) Clinton only had a "surplus" through accounting manipulation of moving the Social Security funds into the general funds C) Clinton had the benefit of being President during and internet bubble and the Year 2000 bug scare, where huge amounts of economic activity were propelled by early replacement of capital investments that led to a lull in replacements directly after 1999...you know, when "Dubya" took over.
But, you go ahead and keep living with your kindergarten view of world history.
"In short, if Hillary had won, nobody would know or care about this. Clearly this is political.
"Am I wrong about that? "
I hope so.
You should consider your hope summarily dashed. The Obama campaign BRAGGED about doing the exact same thing, and the media PRAISED them for it. You can't get much more political than that.
Speaking of cosmetic changes...I know someone that provides laser services (hair removal, tattoo removal, etc), and she is constantly on her phone with these client/patients. Some of these procedures fall under HIPA regulations. Would Facebook be running afoul of HIPA regulations by scraping and storing such data?
Yeah, I said it. You get bored because you're not willing you exercise yourself. You're sitting around waiting for someone else to be creative to stimulate you. Well, guess what, any environment will eventually become "normal", and observing a "normal" environment is boring. It is only when you're actively involved in changing, manipulating, improving your own environment that you see it as ever changing and exposing more detail.
You don't have to go outside. You don't even have to put down your phone. But, you do have to change from a consumer into a producer if you want to avoid boredom.
*If you can fly higher, you have less air resistance to fight. To fly higher, you have to fly faster.
*There are two ways for airplanes to fly faster....add power, or reduce resistance. We know how to go faster with currently available power, but it doesn't pay due to regulations. So, the design might as well be changed to add cargo capacity, instead, and that is what companies currently do.
*A design that is not pouring energy into making useless noise is possibly going to be more efficient (possibly). You might end up with the additional speed on the same energy output (possibly).
*Flying my airplane which only gets 100kts, it is more efficient for me to slow down and take my time when I have a tailwind. With a headwind, it is more efficient for me to push ahead hard and get though it as quick as possible, because the wind is pushing me backwards more the longer I'm up there.
Like you said, it's complicated. But, technology that can make the current limitations seem arbitrary is not unwelcome.
Imagine trying to copy-and-paste some text from a news article somewhere into a Slashdot submission box
So, you'll have to go old school on them and re-type what was in the article. Just like I had to do in high-school when copying text from a book...with a pen...and no friggin' auto-correct!
Mr. Bannon and Mr. Nix received warnings from their lawyer that it was illegal to employ foreigners in political campaigns, according to company documents and former employees.
You can't be serious. You mean like how Hillary's campaign hired that British spy to compose a dossier?
The FAA requires flights in the US to be planned to have a minimum of 30 minutes of fuel remaining at the end of the flight for Day VFR operations. 45 minutes for night or IFR flights. The requirement is there for a reason, as running out of fuel is a consistently high ranking cause of accidents. In my Zenith Zodiac 601XL, which has approximately the same performance as this vehicle, it is generally around 15 minutes between arriving at an airport and getting it on the ground. Setting up in the pattern for a coordinated landing with the other traffic actually takes time.
This thing cruises at 93mph, and has a 62mile range....somewhere around 40 minutes of flight time.
To fly across the city, say 20 miles, there is going to be several minutes of climb out, and something on the order of 15 minutes of en route time. Every landing would have to be an emergency declaration disrupting any traffic pattern.
I drove through the place once. Where was that beautiful scenery you speak of? I don't consider scrub brush covered hills with shabby house squirted on them "scenic" in any way.
I find the headscarf mildly irritating at times, but then I ask myself, "What if the person was dressed as a nun? Would I be bothered then?" Then, I just move on and keep shutting up.
Except Uber isn't advertised to work the way existing taxis work. They were never promoted as a way to make a living. They were promoted as a way to economize a trip by "sharing a ride" with someone that was going the same way. Uber was a way for someone taking a trip to match up with someone that needed a ride in the same direction. The fact that someone with little or no skills found a way to make easy money by picking up aluminum cans on the side of the road does not mean that they deserve guaranteed minimum wage for doing so.
Related to this, I talked to one driver who would turn the app on whenever he was going someplace, but had no intention and would not pick up a fare. Turns out, Uber would send you a detailed report at the end of the year listing the number of miles you drove for them, which (at least in the US) can be used as a tax deduction to the order of something like 50 cent a mile.
Basically, the guy could use Uber to cheat the tax system.
Try working for a large corporation that uses stack ranking for focal reviews, and then come back to us. You don't have to actually go THROUGH the review to see how the people that are best a blowing smoke step over the few doing the actual work.
Every rooftop that can have solar should have solar.
Possibly, but that maxes out at around 40 percent of our current electical power needs (not including HVAC and transportation, even). So what else do we do?
The second step is to cover the parking lot, especially where I work. As an added source of revenue, I would PAY to park my car in the shade of the panel.

actually, it doesn't speak to much of anything. Most people prefer to live where they were born.
A) "Dubya" did not have the power to spend money that was not approved by Congress.

Which party was using a FISA warrant to spy on the opposition party? Instead of giving you the answer, I'll just let you stew in hypocrisy.

From all accounts I've heard, the annoyed party was the FAA and the annoying part was that Boeing didn't build it.
Topgun was NOT a movie about the Air Force.

Or that unpleasant feeling of fullness while being raped?
Also known as capitalism. Also known as human nature.
BTW, also notice that you did not concede that you were willing to volunteer yours. Just upset that others are not willing to volunteer theirs.

We did we ever have a society not filled with attention whores and professional narcissists?
Facebook stock is in a nosedive. Your techbros appear to be correct again. You should keep paying attention to them.

Are you actually implying that fund managers would have any idea what to make of this at all?

Yes. And I never hear anything like that from Californians. Never. Ever.
If by "real city", you mean "ant farm for humans", I'll pass.
