    Well I would be more worried if you did take me seriously here. I think it's fairly obvious to every one but a few, and you, that I'm being sarcastic.

    So did you ever apologize for that homophobic comment you made?

    You talk like this is a bad thing. Any jobs this bring home is a good thing in my option. It is also a good thing if they are made here instead of in China. At least for now the environmental and worker regulations are are better than they are in China.

    China has a habit of doing just that. Subsidizing their industries and dumping cheap products on the world at the expense of other economies. The have done this in the past with cheap steel. Make no mistake, the Chinese are purely looking after Chinese interest. I, personally can't find any fault with this logic.

    There is a difference between efficiently produced panels and cheap panels. Cheap panels will have a shorter lifespan than say more quality produced panels. So to replace a cheaper panels as they wear out will require the manufacturing of more panels. Solar panels are not with out a environmental cost, that is most evident in the manufacturing phase.

    I care where the manufacturing happens. The Chinese are very far behind on their environmental regulations, not mention worker rights. Also this move will help our energy independence than hinder it. We we just keep importing cheap panels from China we become dependent on them. This will make domestic panels more cost effective and actually speed up our energy independence.

    I don't know, how many times has Trump extinguished all life on this planet? Can you give us some hard numbers? i've search google for it and I've come up with nothing.

    Why don't you get back to us with some hard numbers on this.

  7. Hoss, you and I are in the same boat. I was looking at a nice 1070ti. Last week the thing was $500 now its like $900. But some advice. Wait it out. If you can get by with your 660GTX for a few months and see what happens. Don't by some card off ebay right now. Odds are it has been worked hard and will fail soon any way. Not worth the trouble.

    Electoral votes are the same as the number of representatives in the house. Since most of the power in that area lies in the urban areas that they want to split from, I would expect the electoral shakedown to stay about the same. Urban California would lose some electoral votes to rural California I doubt it would be enough to change the college vote that much.

    Of course he doesn't regret it at this time. Nothing has happened yet. Once this goes to trial he might be singing a different tune. It's the little things that tend to set big things in motion. I've been hearing talk of regulating google and facebook for several months now.

    Once the trial starts everything that has happened will go on public record. That might be the tipping to make congress ether start regulating google or break up google. The latter being the most likely of the two.

    So, he might not regret it now but the fat lady is far from singing on this issue

    It is not that someone can't or won't do a "simple" google search. It's the fact that my google search will yield different results from the OP. Google search results change by the hour, or even by the minute. Even if I knew the exact search terms he used to get his information that doesn't mean I will be looking at the exact same article.

    That something, is someone. Another user on slashdot who posted a link that refutes your bullshit too.

    https://slashdot.org/comments....

    There is a link to that post. Take note of the link in that post that clearly refutes your bullshit.

    So far, all you've cited is something called a "SuperKendall" which I assume is some sort of sex toy for homosexual men..

    I'm not what exactly you mean but this post though. It seems to make some kind of derogatory comment about homosexual men. Which if it does makes you one sorry excuse for a human being.

    It also means we are done here. You clearly have no data to back up your clam. Therefor you are just as much full of shit as it is. In the future you should learn to make sure you can back up your bullshit because some of us won't baffled by it.

    But most importantly if I was you I would work on my homophobic issues. I believe you can get physiological help for it. I would suggest you do so.

    Which would make you incorrect, yet again. I'm very aware of how to work a search engine. What you need is practice in learning how to back up your bullshit. You see, you make the claim so therefor its up to you to prove it. Not the other way around. I'm in no obligations to do your research for you.

    So again. Cite your sources. Please provide the appropriate links to the articles in Money magazine for everyone to see. I will read them. An once I have done so I will provide counter evidence if I do not agree with them.

    Do you understand how this works now?

  22. Re:Uh-oh, you know what this means on Apple Gives Employees $2,500 Bonuses After New Tax Law (bloomberg.com) · · Score: 4, Interesting

    So lets look at your original statement here.

    So far, every single company that has announced employee bonuses thanks to the tax bill has followed with an announcement of layoffs shortly afterward. In some cases, the dollar savings of the layoffs almost exactly matched the dollar cost of the bonuses.

    Which is a pretty broad statement, leading to me to call bullshit, and asking you to cite your sources. What I get is 4 articles about 3 companies that have laid off employees while giving bonus to others. I also requested credible sources, I'm not sure that Vice qualifies but we'll let it slide.

    Now then, you calm that in some cases the dollar savings by the layoffs almost exactly match the dollar cost of the bonus. Yet, in none of the articles do they give numbers for you to reach that conclusion. Vice tosses some numbers around but those seem to be just guesses. Vice tosses around a number like 4,000 but the real number seems to be closer to 700 in AT&T case. Plus the fact that Comcast is giving bonuses to the people it laid off clearly shows that your assessment is in error. So that part of your statement is wrong.

    Now then. You state that every single company that has give an bonus as also announce a massive layoff. But yet SuperKendall has posted a link to over a 100 companies giving "Trump Bonus." So unless you can provide evidence showing each and everyone of those companies is having a massive layoff that part of your statement is false too.

    So basically Bullshit was the correct call. Any questions?
