Bill: What if you mix the mayonnaise in the can, WITH the tunafish? Or... hold it! Chuck! I got it! Take LIVE tuna fish, and FEED 'em mayonnaise! Oh this is great.
I'm a slashdot guy and I do not object to being characterized as making you sick.
Your comment should carry a 5+, Insightful because you have the insight.
My momma divorced my dad when I was 14 and when she told me to wash dishes, I said, "That's women's work."
That's the way my daddy raised me.
My momma took me aside and told me that she was alone now and really needed my help. Then she made the light-bulb observation:
"Son, it don't take titties to wash dishes."
I went off by myself and thought, "How fucking unfair of me."
I washed dishes and did whatever I could to help. To this day, my heroes are single moms.
Later, when I entered the world of physics, I noticed the almost total lack of women in math, science, and computer repair and programming.
To this day, I am very upset that we have all done a grave disservice to ourselves by turning our backs on a 50-50 chance of benefiting from a female Einstein.
Men, and I include myself, are shit.
It has to stop and spotlighting young girls in this manner is a start.
I never had kids, but I was one until I was let go. Adults were my role models. For men who are barking like a goddam junk yard dog about this, STFU and pitch in.
Just as we both know what a "floppy disk" is, we also know that since the inception of the 3.5" disk, there's nothing floppy about it and yet, modern computers still use that term.
And so it is with "modem."
While the words may be inaccurate, both are in common use.
To repeat, my modem is handling speeds at 52mbps down and 5mbps up.
So, my worries about hitting the wall at (theoretically) 56kbps, while supported by science, were premature, eh?
The Supreme Court would be invalidating its own existence only if the validity of the Supreme Court were an issue before the court and the court decided to invalidate its own validity.
To date, the validity of the Supreme Court has not been challenged in the lower courts and gone through the appeals process and been accepted by the Supreme Court for consideration, so you're full of shit and stuff.

So Africa has a low IQ because America has not invaded it yet ...
With a few substitutions, your puzzlement could be applied to native Americans.
Why are they just about extinct?
It isn't because they had a low IQ.
It's because they were stone-age people overtaken by much more advanced peoples.
Africa and its indigenous people have all they need to survive and prosper, just as did the native Americans.
Africa, like native Americans, simply don't want to, and don't need to, advance like a bat out of hell and get iPhones.
Left alone, both would have been much better off.
Meanwhile, Africa is being exploited precisely as were native Americans.

Fortunately, you don't have the sense God gave a piss ant to find your way to a voting booth.

Oh, hi there. I'm surprised to see the reverse discrimination card.
I didn't snap to it at first. My bad.
In all honesty, you're a bastard.
I didn't ask for a show of hands for those who are a part of the problem, but thanks for playing anyway.

So it is written, so let it be done.
My unicorns are not amused.
Take up your fucking problem with the goddam Internet. It's a fucking modem whether it modulates/demodulates or stuff.
I've taken 3.5 disks apart but the goddam thing is still a fucking floppy disk.
Bite me.
Apparently I can't expect respect in some situations.
We're both correct.

Take, for instance, the 2nd amendment.
People who elect to live in some government housing cannot keep and bear arms in that housing.
Tenants waive that right and the authorities can and do file charges for those exercising their right.
Courts have successfully litigated those cases, so your position in wrong.
Exactly this.
3. At the high school level, the players are minors.
Too better explain: We were trapped in a dial-up technology with no foreseeable options.
DSL?
... that stated 56kbps was the fastest theoretical (48kbps practical) speed we would get with a modem.
I understood the theory behind it and dial-up was all consumers had, so life's a bitch.
My speed test today yielded 52.87mbps down and 5.93mbps up.
Ain't life grand?
Probably the same number who can't operate a rotary phone.
... but it's my guitar and mic amped up.
Grab that spare room and be grateful for it.
... how many kids can operate a slide rule?
