Yeah, and obama supporters voted for 'hope and change'. They got a basketball playing george bush, at least as far as civil liberties go.
Oh, come on! Obama was greater than Bush in every possible metric, including drone bombings. The thing is, what Bush did was absolutely terrible, and needs to be condemned, but when Obama did it, it was great--or are you a racist?!?
You vastly over-estimate Clinton's influence and power.
The press was by and large in the tank for Clinton. Whether it was newspaper owners holding fundraisers for her (Washington Post), or sending her releases of stories about her in advance for approval (Politico/New York Times), or sending her debate questions (CNN), the press in this country has demonstrated that they are not trustworthy to deliver unbiased news. These are only a few examples I can think off the top of my head. I'm sure the same shenanigans would have gone on even if Trump wasn't the GOP nominee.
The photo from the Washington Monument was time stamped 12:01: right at the moment of inauguration. Not "3 hours before". There's also a photo time-stamped 11:49:43, and even a time-lapse photo of the whole event
Out of curiosity, do you think the threat of violent protests had anything to do with suppressing the turnout? Even if that were not the case, it's no surprise that Obama's inauguration crowds were larger, since they were more historic.
I'm glad they are including the headline with the trending news item. Every time I see a celebrity's name in the trending news, I wonder to myself "Why is X in the news, did x die?" Better to be able to glance at it instead of having to hover.
According to the MacRumors Buyer's Guide, only the MacBook Pro is a recommended buy, and that's one of the most panned Macs to ever come out. With sales of Apple Watches, iPads & iPhones tanking, they better have a boatload of new offerings in 2017 to turn things around, or they'll really be in trouble.
The obvious solution is to dig only under your own property. Any two pieces of property can be connected by digging straight down from both of them until the tunnels intersect.
They conveniently intersect at his secret underground volcanic lair...
On the bright side, it is refreshing to see the Democrats suddenly care about fiscal responsibility, and the press actually scrutinizing the government.
I'd think from a military standpoint what you want is soldiers who make better battlefield decisions, not ones that engage in a stereotypical behavior regardless of circumstance.
Unless of course, you have a lot more bodies to throw in to combat, like China.
Laziness and impatience drives obscene profit margins within the coffee industry. It's still fairly easy to still spend pennies on a cup of coffee, if you're willing to get off your ass, grind a few beans, and brew a cup. Most people prefer whistling for a dog named Starbucks or shove a pod into a machine to whip up a coffee-like substance fast enough to not be a burden on a FOMO lifestyle.
Quit being such judgmental snob. I do all three; it depends on the situation I'm in, and nothing to do with FOMO. There are times when I want a coffee and I'm not at home or not at work: Starbucks or Biggby, usually with a triple shot of espresso. When I'm at work, I use my Keurig. I find certain K-cups make great coffee. When we're camping we grind our own and use a percolator over coals. Definitely the roughest cups of coffee I drink, but then again, I'm out in the woods.
No idea why this is modded as troll. In any case, I agree that Netflix has better original content than Amazon, though Man in the High Castle has been very good.
But if you make people more productive, you'll need less people, or you'll need the same people for less time.
Which will free up people to pursue other interests & career opportunities. Losing a job isn't a life sentence of despondency. I've been there many times, and nearly every time I ended up with something better. A couple of times I had to take a step back though too. It's during those times that you explore new opportunities & retool your skill set.
It's not that it's not workable, it's that the markets are not efficient (in the economic sense). Note that this took TEN YEARS to occur. Had the reaction been on the order of 3-6 months, I'd say it worked properly. The time from the beginning of price gouging to the current state where the cost is a single digit multiple of the production cost means that the marketplace is only reactive to massive imbalances.
You don't think that the barriers to entry (patents & FDA) had anything to do with the "slow" reaction?
I had them burrow into the fascia for my deck when I lived in Virginia. If you sit on the deck, you can hear them chewing away.
I caught one boring a whole in my deck. They can chew quite fast. I happened to have a garden spade in my hand, so I chopped it in half while it's head was embedded in the wood. Those are ones you don't want to let go of, or you'll have a massive problem.
So according to you fraud is ok because nobody *has* to buy from Amazon? Weird argument you have there. Sorry but retailers shouldn't get to make any and all claims about their product regardless of veracity. This includes lying about the "market" value of the product to make it seem like it is a better deal than it actually is.
Fraud would be if they offered you a product for a certain price, then charged you a different price. Or charged you that price but sent you a different item. Or made a claim that a product had certain features but didn't. The market value of anything is whatever people are willing to pay for it. So it doesn't really matter if you claim that your product is ordinarily worth x; it only matters that you're selling it for y. Your argument boils down to "I think other people are stupid."
Canada's Competition Bureau said in a statement. "The Bureau determined that Amazon relied on its suppliers to provide list prices without verifying that those prices were accurate."
If that's the price the suppliers are giving them, why wouldn't it be accurate? Nobody forces people to buy from Amazon, there's an entire world wide web out there where they can compare prices and make their own determinations. Heck, there are even sites that will do the comparisons for you. Likewise, nobody ever pays MSRP on anything anyway; this sounds like a bogus complaint to me.
By not disabling the cache Safari will just reload the web page from disk, instead of downloading it all over wifi. In normal use you don't sit around reloading the same page all day, you surf to different web sites, so caching extends battery life to unrealistic levels.
No, you don't reload the same page constantly, but you usually visit several pages within the same site. There's no reason you'd want those images to reload every time. I saw somewhere that the average user only visits 5 different sites per day. That was a few years back, so it has probably changed since then, but I wouldn't think it's too dramatic.So it seems to me that caching extends battery life to expected levels.

In Trump's case he's already getting rid of medicine for the terminally ill who don't have insurance...
Of course he is!

The only untruth I see here, is your attempt to redefine lying to mean being wrong or naive.
O'rly? Either you're incredibly ignorant of the events, or you're a shill. In either case, it's not worth debating with you about it.
For most of these folks, they will now receive money for something they never even knew they had. No one will be forced off the land.

Still haven't figured out why you lost huh? Keep digging. You're doing a great job.
Is winning really more important than boosting his low self-esteem?

I hear this a lot, but with the one child policy I don't think they want their one and only child killed.
Sure, most people love their children, but then you have this issue: China's biggest problem? Too many men
30 million more men than women by 2020. Don't you think that's going to cause some problems?

Total Wireless has a 4-line plan with 15 GB shared data for $100 a month (taxes included), and it drops to $95 per month if you get auto-refill.

Anyone try one of those cheap "Smart Watches" you see on Amazon? Here's one I looked at: CNPGD Bluetooth Smart Wrist Wrap Watch Phone for IOS and Android, Black
I don't know. Based on the size, it appears to be a bit cumbersome...
