it means that if you're gonna pass a law to block robo-calls it has to block _all_ robo calls. You can't single out one type of call based on it's content.
That was kinda my thought. I can't see comparing the two when there's an $80 price difference on a $200 card. But $200 is my price ceiling for graphics so take that with a grain of salt.
If they can get that kinda performance with good stability. I haven't tried AMD since the 43xx era because the 4350 I used to replace an aging 1650x could never stay stable in the game I was playing at the time Psychnauts) and my friends with AMD either had tons of stability issue or only ever play big titles like Call of Duty and Dots ( which run fine)
Vote. And vote in your mid term election. I'm not going to bother telling you who to vote for. You can figure that out yourself. But our last Congress was made up of ass clowns who got elected because nobody shows up for mid terms. Thick about that.
in America on a fibre roll out that never happened and nobody has the balls to ask for our money back. So you're forgive me if I'm not in even the tinciest bit surprised shit like this can fly. The loans will be private with public guarantees and we'll all eat it like we eat sports Colosseums.
"I don't care"
"Politicians have been doing this for decades"
"Regan Got away with it"
"So did Cheney"
"We can indict Hilary for her email server right after we finish sentencing Cheney for war crimes".
Seriously. We let monumental crap following the Afghanistan & Iraq wars just slide. Admit it, you just don't like Hilary, and you'll do literally anything to break her. Maybe you've got a good reason. Maybe you don't. But none of those matter. It's about how you _feel_. But hey, don't take my word for it. Listen to John Oliver.
or LA forget public transportation. And if you do the extra cost of living there will negate any savings on a car. Our entire transportation system is one big catch 22 built by the Car companies in the 50s and 60s to maximize their profits. The Millennials weren't even alive when those decisions were made so it's not like you can blame them.
These aren't hobbies. These are folks working second and third jobs because their day job doesn't pay enough for rent + food + car. I don't see a lot of actor-waiters, I see a lot of folks doing Uber on the weekend to make rent.
Look, whatever else you think good or bad about Hilary the fact is a lot of very, very wealthy people have it in for her. Fox news alone is enough to account for a conspiracy by the strict definition. What's that old quote from Gore Vidal? I'm not a conspiracy theorist, I'm a conspiracy documenter. Or put another way: a conspiracy is just two or more people doing something shady. If you can't find two folks from the anti Hilary side doing something shady then you sure aren't even trying...
but I'm not sure the Dems can win the political game of crazy. I don't think they've got much to lose here. Their supporters will mostly ignore this nonsense as long as Hilary herself stays clear. And a lot of the Republican party still associates Russia with Communism and Communism with everything possible that can be bad or evil. If they mange to rub a bit of those decades of anti-communist sentiment off on Trump he'll lose a substantial fraction of his base. And even if he doesn't he'll be put in the ridiculous position of defending his "Americanism". A position that's harder to defend after all the nice things he's said about Putin.
The money never makes it to the schools. It becomes tax cuts for the wealthy when funding levels are kept more or less the same. John Oliver has a funny and lengthy video on how the scam works.
in the rest of the world convenience stores have regular food. Given the large network of the things you might see better food options as they get more into delivery. Kinda like what Radio Shack tried to do but actually workable since food is perishable.
Hording is only a problem in two scenarios: a) inaction, in other words leave things up to the invisible hand. In this case wealth concentrates at the top like it did during the dark ages and like it's doing now or b) Venezuela, where their entire economy is based on 1 commodity and that commodity just plummeted in value. You solve a) with public policy to prevent wealth inequality (like the 90% marginal tax rate the US had for income over $2 million in the 50s). You solve b) with simple human decency (aid to economically hurting nations in the form of 0% interest loans). Again, as long as you don't try to "leave well enough alone" it's all fixable.
Basically, ask yourself when, in your life, have you had a difficult problem that was best solved by ignoring it?
I assume you mean a currency backed by gold. A modern economy can't do that. There isn't enough gold to back the currency needed for us to keep track of all the transactions we're doing. You run out and the system slows to a crawl and eventually collapses. Humans do more stuff than we have gold to track it with unless you're driven the exchange rate to the point of being meaningless (1 ounce gold = $1 trillion?). That's why we came off the gold standard. And frankly, we've got better things to do with gold (conductors) than let is sit around in brick form making nervous people feel comfortable about their access to wealth.
The only fault of communism is that you can never reach it's end state ( public ownership of the means of production ). Communism involves a massive transfer of ownership from the ruling class to the working class done in one fell swoop. Nobody's every pulled that off without ownership being transferred to a different ruling class instead. The closest I've seen is Venezuela, but they're a one trick pony (oil) so every time the price of it drops their entire country crashes. The correct answer is Social Democracy of the sort Obama & Hilary are trying to move us to. Very slowly, and very painfully, I might add, but trying nonetheless.
Communism is like dropping the word "Nazi" but in reverse.
Besides, the goal isn't necessarily to maximize GDP. If it as North Korea would be doing more trading. For the ruling class the goal is to maximize their cut of GDP. For the left the goal is to raise everyone to the best standard of living possible within the limits of our tech. As for communism: doesn't work. Marx figured workers would seize the means of production and then distribute the result. The trouble is you never get past the "dictatorship" part in "dictatorship of the proletariat".
That's why Social Democracy exists. Instead of eliminating capitalism you just regulate the shit out of it. The system's biggest flaw is it's complex and it's easy to convince rubes it won't work because it like any real solution to a complex problem you're constantly fixing/tweaking/improving it. People want to believe they can fix something once and it'll never break again. That's where "conservativism" comes from.
the dems don't have anti-porn and anti-LGBT line items in their party platform. It's funny seeing these numbers at their convention. I'm actually surprised how low they are. Then again somebody has been doing this every convention since at least 2000 so folks are probably wising up.
Bernie got _lot_ of concessions in the party platform. Like it or not she's got to balance that with the party's right wing. There's not enough left wing voters to get her in office. Also speaking of "Like it or not" there's Wall Street to consider. You can't just pretend those guys don't exist. You'll lose.
Hilary's biggest problem is the same one Obama has: She's actually planning on governing. That means she has to compromise, form alliances and work within the system. The only way to really "tear down" the system is with horrible, horrible violence. That sounds nice when it's happening somewhere in the Middle East. Not so much when it's in your own city.
Sonic Mania looks like a very nice kickstarter video? It's probably the constant appeals to nostalgia. What I real want is those Android ports of Sonic 1&2 that were done by the same team that did the Sonic CD remake to show up on Steam. Sonic CD looks fantastic on my TV, but I don't feel like buying an Android micro console for 2 games.
Also can we ditch the Dystopia theme for Sonic 2017? It's a Sonic game. It's OK to be bright and silly. Sonic Generations only had those levels because it borrowed them Sonic 2007, the worst game since ET 2600.
it's already much, much cheaper to hire over seas. Adding the expense of bringing someone over on an H1-B doesn't help. If companies didn't have a reason to use the H1-B program then they wouldn't.
has the economy gotten this bad? Pay-As-You-Go isn't something companies do to be friendly, they do it because they don't trust their customers to pay their bills after the fact.
Dummy? That land is 8k for a reason. Where are you going to get water to grow food? There's a reason nobody settled there, ya know? The reason the America southwest was settled was the govt paid to irrigate and developer land. It wasn't bootstrappy capitalists. You know why house prices are going up? Developers ran out of free land they could build on that you and me paid for. Christ..
He did exactly what I wanted. He moved the party platform to the left. That was also his stated goal. He never expected to win. This was slowest about keeping Clinton on her toes. Worked, too.
and Fuck Student loans. College shot up in price because we cut all the federal funding we used to give public Universities. That wasn't by accident. It was lobbied for by banks. It's a win-win. They can pocket the money once as tax cuts and again on massive interest from the loans. What I haven't figured out is how they convinced so many otherwise very intelligent people that a small uptick in Administrative costs is to blame vs the billions in Federal funding & grants that went missing.

By paying people better and treating them with respect? Kinda like we do with police, military and fire departments?
