My query has nothing to do with #1A or #2A.
It's about money.
Why in simple hell do I need Ruger, S&W, Kahr, others, when I can make that shit at home?
We both know what technology does -- it's disruptive -- and it gets better as the years go by.
Gun manufacturing can go the way of film for photography.
Come on, man!
This is funny.
... money grubbers like gun manufacturers and their PAC, the NRA?
DIY should be an issue like the fucking "right to repair," mess.
... is to bar "news," from entering the social media bubbles and echo chambers.
Social media is just that: A meeting place to be social.
News sites abound outside those limits and consumers can elect where to go get it.
Fake news will always be available and popular.
Look at The Enquirer.
People recognize tabloids for what they are.
... we have too many terrorists on Earth, supported by poppies and shit.
Why would we set them up on Mars and provide land for terror farming?
Why?
You're talking about scraping personal data.
I'm talking about stirring the pot.
... list?
Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, Whatsapp, and other social media platforms that foreign countries contaminate with ad-buying.
It's too late.
I'm still in favour of doing what's sensible, but that ship sailed 30 years ago.
Humans will survive. That's not the issue.
The issue is that those in warmer or flooded areas will have to migrate.
Plants will not migrate with them because it's all moving too quickly and they can't take the bus.
Worms and soil bacteria and chemicals that aid in nutrition for plants don't have bus passes, either.
Animals other than human will be migrating also, but their food supply will not be there to meet them.
And, speaking of avoiding high temperatures, Americans will be moving North.
Well, trying to.
Recall that they want to be nationalistic assholes because they don't like immigrants or refugees.
It's a small world, after all.
The popular vote doesn't count and the American voters know that.
Q: How many times was a president elected who did not win the popular vote?
A: It has happened five times.
Russia did not throw the vote.
Let's face it, OK?: The 2016 election cycle was totally bizarre in that all three top contenders were toxic.
Had either Bernie or Hillary won, things would still be batshit crazy.
Not disagreeing with you at all.
Trump would have won.
People wanted change.
Hillary self-identified as Obama 2.0.
The Democratic party rigged their whole primary process. Bernie was not supposed to be there to dilute the vote.
Clinton had too much baggage and Sanders was too radical to the left.
Trump promised whatever it was that his immediate rally-goers needed to survive.
Back to your point:
Businesses don't care about anything except money.
America is not a Republic or a democracy.
It's a Capitalistic society.
... take showers.
... but people shortened that to "commode."
... fails when there's weather South of me.
The Hopper3 box has an RJ-45 network wire connected to my backbone.
When I get the alert that satellite is down, Dish should switch to stream.
--
I can stream Dish on a smart device from anywhere, assuming my box at home works.
No good if there's a weather outage or if my home loses power.
If I subscribe to this or that online stream at $8 - $15/mo., pretty soon I'll be paying more than I am now.
If they're so smart, why are they flies?
Almost anything, if the timing is right.
Americans have a short attention span.
Stomping on the base just a week before elections would be a good start.
That works both ways. Remember Stuxnet.
Every goddam government is screwing every other goddam government.
Only the USA is making their incompetence public in order to give the 3-letters more power.
And, taking advantage of the president is the Republican party.
We need an October Surprise.
All the fucked up shit so far has come and gone as news.
... Manning walks past security with a Lady Gaga CD and inserts that into a computer and walks out with the good stuff.
Now we have a shit load of people pulling out USB sticks ...
I don't have mod points but I sure as hell got a fucking sense of humour and this in funny.
Precisely. Thanks.
Throw away everything except:
Public Officials Conduct Business
HOW isn't important.
Exactly.
Prohibition is the template for the answer: There is none.
Touche'
"Burning need," is code for, "rabid greed," from /. perspective.
What's your guess for ROI of a fix?
