There is radical elements with extremist views and violent agendas on both sides. The difference is that Trump and his movement embrace these elements while the Liberals disavow them
That is straight-up bullshit, and you know it. Everybody from Hillary Clinton on down to (for instance) San Jose's mayor and police chief are engaged in "blame the victim" over what happened in that city recently.
Another observation of value: back in 1964, you could've bought a gallon of gasoline for about 20 cents. Those two dimes would've contained about 0.144 troy ounce of silver. At about $16 per troy ounce, the silver in those two dimes is now worth about $2.30. Strangely enough, that's about what you'd pay in today's debased currency for a gallon of gasoline.
GGBlocker pulled up a copy that was both cached and ad-free. (I think the odds of it pulling an ad-free page depend on whether whoever first cached the page had an ad-blocker active.)
Sites are starting to use EME or big Flash/HTML5 blobs with the ads built in them.
I've even seen pages that use the data URI scheme for ad images (try the Daily Caller as an example). This enables them to evade most ad blockers. If they were injected server-side, they would be practically unblockable; you'd need a block rule for each one, and I could see the server-side code tacking on some random garbage at the end to effectively make each image unique.. So far, however, they're still using client-side JavaScript to inject them, so you can use something like uMatrix or NoScript to block them.
We use the detergent packs in the dishwasher and the dishes get really clean, with no residue and minimal pre-rinsing involved (usually just to get the vegetable residue off, as the more fibrous stuff doesn't disolve and gets trapped in the filter).
How new is your dishwasher? If it's fairly new, it stands a chance of doing an OK job. An older dishwasher ("older" probably means at least 8 years old at this point, give or take a bit) won't work worth a crap with the newer phosphate-free detergents. Last year, I moved back into the condo I bought back in '99. I replaced the original dishwasher shortly afterward, and the new one works like a champ.
(To be honest, though, the old one was kinda marginal even before the phosphates went away. In the years I was gone, though, tenants told me it was pretty much useless.)
Not really; a lot of men are forced (under penalty of no sex) to watch their wife's shows, while men don't play the same game.
"Watch" often has a rather loose meaning. If you're in the same room with your head buried in an ebook (or even posting to/.) while she's watching Keeping Up with the Kardashians or whatever drek she prefers, that's often good enough. It was for me, at least.:-)
I, myself, am looking for a Hyper-V friendly distro with KDE default and no systemd. Alas, there is none.
Gentoo, perhaps? No systemd, whatever desktop you want (if any...there is no default), and while I've never done anything with HyperV, I have Gentoo VMs running in both VirtualBox and VMware ESXi.
havent seen a phone with a working FM chip in the states
Try looking at unlocked phones. I have an Asus Zenfone 2 and a Moto G; each came with a radio app that works while headphones are plugged in (the cable is used as an antenna). I think there was also radio hardware in the Moto X I used previously, but it was crippled by AT&T.
That said, I've not had much use for the radio so far. If I'm in my car, it's easier to just use its radio. If I'm playing something on my phone, it's most likely a podcast or a cached playlist downloaded over WiFi, or (less often) streamed from Google Play (where I've uploaded my collection).
My demands for Wine aren't particularly tough, and it seems to have no trouble with them: Kindle for PC (the Linux-native version of Calibre can even grab DRM keys out of it), Picasa, and ProMash (a fairly old program for managing homebrew recipes). If anything, ProMash might be easier to get up and running under Wine than under newer versions of Windows. (I think most of the complaints are about getting it to run on 64-bit Windows...that, and nobody's imported the 2015 BJCP guidelines into it.)
I don't understand the desire to run Office, period.
One word that's the bane of my existence:
Access.
At work, we have stuff that even has to be kept within Access 2003 because it won't run right on newer versions. (Don't blame me; it predates my time here.) What do you suppose are the odds these will work with whatever equivalent tool (if any) [Open|Libre]Office provides?
At least the data for most of these relics lives in SQL Server, so there's some job security in porting the UI out of Access and into something more modern. If only my predecessor had had a clue about things like normalization, relationships between tables, choosing appropriate data types, and not allowing null inputs everywhere...
Other than an SSD, what can a typical user add to a laptop that already has maxed RAM?
I have a Dell that I upgraded from a Core Solo to a Core Duo a while back when a broken machine with a Core Duo came through the office. If I wanted, I could spend maybe $20-$30 on eBay for a compatible Core 2 Duo that would bring 64-bit compatibility, but it's already maxed out at 2 GB RAM. (Gentoo x32, perhaps? It's currently running Kubuntu.)
I also have an HP that shipped with a WiFi card that didn't support WPA. More sifting through the junk bin at work turned up a replacement that does.
Beyond things like that (and both of these are fairly old...main reason I'm keeping the Dell going is its 15" 1680x1050 screen), there admittedly aren't a whole bunch of upgrade options beyond SSD & RAM a fair bit of the time.
They already control nearly every moment of our lives.
I don't know in Amerika, but in the rest of the world the LEFT is the one trying to control everything you do, lest you say something somebody wouldn't like
It's no different here. Outside of who you screw, whatever "gender identity" you imagine yourself to be, and your wife's/girlfriend's/mistress's options if you get her knocked up (assuming for the sake of argument that you swing that way), Democrats are all about micromanaging your life.
I'm too cheap to pay for Plex Pass so I cant stream to my phone across the internet.
I've never paid for Plex Pass either, but streaming works like a champ for me on my phone and my Chromebook (the latter just uses the web interface).
What phone are you using? Plex apps for Android and (I think) iOS are free, but they're charging (via Plex Pass) for the Windows app. Then again, the web app works pretty much the same on Windows devices as it does on Chromebooks (just tested it on an HP Stream 7 to verify), so you don't really need the Windows app.
That took maybe 10 seconds, and it looks like the first page of results has everything from a crappy SD Xvid AVI on up to an un-recompressed Blu-ray rip, with recompressed 720p and 1080p options in between.
Personally I really like streaming services like Spotify and Netflix, but I'm starting to think that maybe having local copies of some things is a good thing as one of the problems with streaming services is the ephemeral nature of availability.
Connection outages can also be an issue, especially when you're on the road. I uploaded my music collection to Google Play a while back (and had it uploaded to iTunes Match before that), but when I had a road trip last weekend, I had my phone download a bunch of playlists. Cellphone service is spotty between Las Vegas and Phoenix, but the music kept playing because it was all cached on the phone beforehand. Can Spotify do that? I've never used it, so I don't know what features it offers.
This doesn't matter academically of course, she did what she did because of who she was, not what she was, but why is it if someone has half, or even just 25% african heritage in the US, they're still typically considered simply "black' for all intents and purposes, and it's as if the Caucasian or Sino-Asian heritage is submersed and dismissed? Both Halley Berry and Obama, for example, are equally half white/black but they're flatly considered black by most accounts. Obama was even raised by his US mother and her parents, who were white. Few other than Morgan Freeman seem to comprehendf that Obama is actually 50/50.
It's the one-drop rule...and [Democrats|race-baiters|SJWs] are perpetuating it, now that they can twist it into a perceived advantage.

Actually, the National Guard is part of the militia. It is, however, not the entire militia; the rest of the militia is made up of the rest of us.
He was awesome as the honey badger killing and eating a snake!

You're conveniently leaving out the judge's connections to La Raza, itself a racist organization.
Senator McCarthy would've had no control over the House Un-American Activities Committee. Try again.

Given that 90% of everything is crap, this shouldn't be a surprise.

Because SJWs are fuckwits and are incapable of intelligent discourse...remember, they always project.

From his fourth point of contact, most likely.
