The alternative is you learn to negotiate. Offer something they want in return for something they want. Obama overstepped his authority because he was never able to negotiate with congress. Not during the first two years when his party controlled congress nor later on when he faced a hostile congress.
Ronald Reagan faces a hostile congress. So he reached out to them he negotiated he traded and he made deals. Many love to point out how the darling of the Republican Party signed and even pushed for much legislation that increased big government spending. It's true, but for that he rebuilt the armed forces which were still quite demoralized from the end of the Vietnam war, He got tax cuts through and other goals.
In short the President isn't supposed to go around Congress. He doesn't have the authority. If Congress is hostile he has to negotiate, offer to sign or even support legislation he might not like in trade for some of his goals. Something that President Obama was never able to do. And something that President Trump assumed that having a GOP controlled congress meant he wouldn't have to do but he has started such negotiations. Reaching out to the Democratic leadership in the Senate and the House, at first he thought he could just back the GOP and they'd get things done. They've proven inept and unable to take advantage of the majority they hold so now he's trying to bring the Dems into the discussions.
US destabilized? I seem to recall a peaceful transfer of power, with all three branches of government still in full operation. Alleged interference in the election by spreading information is not destabilizing. There is no evidence of any actual votes being altered.
Well by law it's supposed to only be used for Tax identification purposes. Not healthcare, not insurance, not anything else. But everybody just ignores the Privacy Act of 1974 because it's never been enforced.
He wasn't the one to introduce deliberate incompatibility. In fact he probably pushed us closer to widespread compatibility through the wide spread acceptance of the M$ OS's. Before he came along every OEM had their own custom OS and custom Applications that only worked on their OS. So application makers targeted one or maybe two hardware systems and that was it.
With M$, regardless of the hardware the OS is the same and the applications can get to a much larger market. Now we have a few OS's with incompatibility, but hardware wise only a few play the lock-in game, and except for Apple they are niche markets (and usually will run windows or Linux in a VM for access to other applications commonly needed and used).
So unless you want to be buying a Dell with Dell OS and only Dell designed or approved apps (at a much higher cost per application) or a Toshiba with Toshiba OS and only Toshiba approved apps (repeat for every manufacturer) where app designers are only going to have the resources to target a couple OEM OS's then you should be thanking Billy for bringing us a hardware standard that can run one or two major OS's and have a wide variety of inexpensive applications because every brand of hardware doesn't require it's own custom coded software. Linux adapted to match the common architecture that MS forced across the industry, with only Apple Really selling it's own locked down hardware and OS combination. And even they have moved towards the common hardware architecture of the PC.
The reset button did exist and worked fine on those occasions where the problem blocked the three finger salute. If locked up to that degree the Power Switch was your one button reset.
I agree, a single button is too easy to hit on accident, rebooting the machine and killing all your work. The deliberate three key action is the way to go on this. You are not going to enter that set of keys on accident. A single or even two keystroke action is far more likely to be done accidently.
And on the occasions that failed you had the power switch to reset the machine.
It's not just resting on a rail, it's enclosed in a tube. There is no interaction with other modes of travel, no RR crossings in which to hit cars, busses Trucks etc. Similarly no Slow moving Cargo trains sharing the track (at least at this point, if successful I could see that changing.)
Not sure of the mode of propulsion, if maglev, and it loses power it lowers onto wheels on the tracks and rolls to a stop. If just floating due to the vacuum pressure in the tube it will still have wheels to drop onto when not traveling at speed. And it should be fairly straight forward to insert a pusher car to get it to the next station or just open emergency ports on the tube letting in air for the occupants and providing a route to exit the system. I'm sure there will be some risk but the question reads like it's trying to put the risks of standard trains onto this very different system.
You have to prepare oatmeal. Pretzels are a more favored snack (we like salty foods). Carrots aren't as snackable, they are wet and often get slimy/
Sedentary lifestyle is still the answer. Not just gaming but Cable and now streaming TV and an abundant supply of snack foods reduces the need or desire to leave the couch.
Okay his answer was too brief. Then how about this cause: Sedentary lifestyle. 30 years ago when I was a teen, video games were rudimentary and kids spent a lot more time outside. We rode bikes around the neighborhood, we built forts, we roamed and played. And we burned off the soda's and other high sugar foods with active play.
Nowdays it's hard to get the kids off the TV, even if you kick em out they don't go roaming and playing like they used to because all the other kids are at home playing games or watching TV.
Our sedentary lifestyle is to blame. And the difference is that it is far more pervasive than it used to be.
Your anecdotal experience as one individual who has not been selected for search proves nothing. Not when there is a large and ever growing list of citizens who are being subjected to searches of their electronic devices.
Only if the currency still has value in some non-shadow environment. Your East Bloc Example fails because "West-Money" had value in purchasing things from West-Bloc countries. The currency was illegal for most to have and use in the East, but was fully valid and of value in the West and the East Bloc nations used the West money to buy needed stuff.
If Bitcoin were made illegal globally it would have no real value. No government would be seeking to accumulate and use it and no governments would back it. It might retain some value on the dark-web but as it would have no value on the light-web and real world it's value would be greatly diminished.
It takes something legitimate backing a currency to give it value. Precious metals are no longer used, instead it is the promises and stability of the governments that produce the cash currencies that ensure they have value. It's a weak system as the collapse of a government would render all currency issued by it as worthless. But it is more inherently stable than bitcoin which is supported by.....
The US used to have a similar line called Generic. White boxes with bold black block lettering. Now it's mostly been replaced with store-brand products.
The idea is the same. Drop the brand name and it's expensive advertising for a lower cost.
Nope you have it backwards. It's the Progressives who only respect a right when it benefits them. Privacy is enshrined in the 4th Amendment as any US Conservative will tell you. We may admit that it's not as all encompassing a protected right as some would like. But it is there in our "Precious" Bill of Rights and it most certainly does exist.
A not very slight difference in the two projects. My state Utah was a close competitor for that data center, until someone did the math on the fact that it will only employ 100 specialized but not really top paying jobs as well as required a rather significant amount of water, which is always a precious commodity in a desert state, even more so smack dab in the middle of our highest concentration of population. And so we pulled out, letting New Mexico have the boondoggle.
This plant will instead employ thousands, up to 13,000. Far too many to hire a significant portion of via H1B visa's, there are only so many of those to go around.
Concrete pathways are not sufficient. A small percentage survive with expensive life long injuries thus counteracting the savings. They must be bordered with a 10 foot border of 10 inch rusty rebar spikes, with the 15m fall sharpening is not required.
Who said Mexicans? The GP post said illegal immigrants. Illegal immigrant does not equate with Mexican. Not even in Texas. Yes Mexican nationals make up a sizeable portion of illegals sneaking across the border, but the Hispanic illegals come from all across central and south America and there are many illegals from other parts of the world that also come up through the southern border.
And the officer murdered in cold blood in NYC while sitting in her car just a couple weeks ago? The five in Dallas a year ago? Bad guys with guns most certainly do kill cops, and they are intentionally targeting them more and more often. It used to be such killings were mostly in the course of firefights and resisting arrest. Now Officers pull someone over for speeding and get shot, or pull over to see if a stopped car needs help and gets shot. Just because they are wearing a Uniform they are targeted.
And their cars will refuse to enter any region covered by TW or COX. Nor will they provide transportation services to remote areas and any newly built areas will take at least five years to get Comcast Car Services enabled.

Depends on the shade of Green. John Deere Green is a brighter green than that used by the Green Bay Packers. The yellow is brighter too.
Both entities use specific shades of their famous colors.
