That's good, Apple and MS still need new ideas to steal.
Naw. They are still plenty of old ideals for them to steal, and fuck up. I give you virtual desktops on windows 10. Something that has been around 30 years. Microsoft finally steals it and promptly fucks it right up the ass.
I bought a $100 laser printer 4 years ago to print out "official" documents for bureaucrats that don't take email. I print a dozen documents a year and mainly keep the dust off it.
It wouldn't be the first time that klan (I refuse to capitalize it) has turned violent only to find out the klan was defending themselves. I've been reading up on events for the last 30 years and it seems that in most of the cases where violence breaks out it usually starts with counter protesters.
Of course if you read between the lines you find out this exactly what the klan wants to happen. They show up, do their little song and dance while hiding behind free speech and police barricades. Then when the violence starts they get in their little suv's and drive off.
So if it turns out that its the counter protesters that started it all, I wouldn't surprised.
yeah, that's not what happened. he barreled down an empty street TOWARDS A CROWD, backed up, and then SPED AT THEM AGAIN. he's been charged with MURDER. you're a fool.
From what you have posted in this thread, sounds to me like you are just as full of hate as the people in the videos. At least they are honest in their hatred.
Yes he was, a few miles from where I'm sitting. I would suggest you take the time and go down to where it happened. Damn powerful feeling just standing there at a key point where history changed.
I have heard that it might turn into a self-defense trial. I could see that happening if he was truly running for his life. I think over the next few days we are going to find out some ugly truths about both sides.
This is true but I wonder how long it will be or even if it should remain that way. Google, Facebook, and Twitter control so much content and how we find it on the internet. All the companies mentioned have all ready shown a willingness to censor speech that doesn't match their agenda or corporate policies. How much longer before google polices decide what we can and can't see? How much longer before companies like Facebook and Twitter decide an election?
It might be time to start thinking about extending freedom of speech into certain private spheres.
Heather Heyer didn't have to die. She was murdered by individual with disgusting views. That individual is in custody, he will be charged with his crime, and he will be punished for it. At the trial his political views will be taken into account. What more would you want?
As you being called a a 'chink' and told to 'go back home.' Try being called a 'cracker' and told to go back to Europe, or being told the world is better off if you where dead. There are people with little minds in this world. You will not stamp out racism, bigotry, and hatred by simply sweeping it under a rug.
Take that as a weather vane of this country's values. If it's against your grain, leave. Please!
We are taking as a "weather vane" of our countries values. An those values clearly state that you have a right to say, gather peacefully, or hold values no matter how repugnant hey are.
Freedom of speech applies to everyone in this country, every one. Just because you don't like their speech doesn't mean they can't say it. You just don't have to listen to it, like most of us chose not to do.
This is my thought on the subject. I have netflix, hulu, and the curiositystream. I have plenty of things to watch if I want to waste my time watching it. If you don't want to put it on one of those 3 services, then I won't be watching it.
Have they? I see these map graphs with range circles associated with certain missiles - which have not flow that far
You know, it really doesn't matter if they have or they haven't. What they have proven is they are determined to build a nuke. We have valid data that they have did this.
Given all that I would say we have to go on the notion that they have and react with that assumption till otherwise.
The problem is that it continues "loading" and doesn't render the first page (or last edited page) and give control to the user while loading the rest in the background. It appears to want to parse ALL of it before displaying SOME of it, which is a design flaw in my opinion.
Yes, I can actually see where this could be a design flaw. I just loaded a random log file in to libreoffice to see if it could handle it. The log file was over 50,000 pages long. While I was actually impressed that it could load the file at all, I did notice it took it several more minutes before I could actually do anything with the file. Libreoffice seemed to want to format the tire file in memory before letting me access any of it.
While I don't work on documents every day of even a few 100 pages, I could see where this process could be frustrating if you had to do it all day. It may only add a few seconds to your work time but to a professional that few seconds can add up very quickly.
But at least libreoffice did load and handle the 50,000 page document. After it got through loading and formatting I found that it to be quiet responsive. I was even able to search and replace in the file with a good response time. On the other page Word 2016 loaded the file and I was able to start work in it almost instantly, but promptly crashed when I paged into the file.
I don't know, he might have something to bitch about. It took me over a minute to open a 50,805 page document in libreoffice 5.3, 230mb file. Lord knows what I would do if I had to open a serous document....
Yes, I'm being sarcastic, but on another note. I did just now open a 50,000 page log file. While it did take it over a minute to open and display that file, but 50,000 pages. That is damn impressive.
My comcast internet service has been up and down for the past year. Every time I call to get it fixed I get the same song and dance. We are or have sent someone out to fix it and this is no longer a problem. Only to have it go down for a week or so later.
So, if they can't keep my fucking cable modem up a month or so, why the hell should I trust them with a automatic car?
Crap like this is why I stay away from what I call "vanity" file systems. It always seems there is some kind of issues with the filesystem itself or the tools you have to use to maintain it. I'll just stick to plan old ext3/4 file system. Vanity file systems may have their advantages but their issues always seem to outweigh them.
An that is probably why I have never seen one of them in the wild. When it comes right down to it, in the linux world ext3/ext4 is king and for a good reason.
"I just don't think the dump the waste in a hole and forget about it approach that is used in most cost calculations is viable."
Actually, you can do just that thing. It is just a matter of how deep you want to put it. An we have the technology to do it.
In short, you drill a hole in the convergent boundary between two plates. Preferably out in the ocean somewhere. I think two miles down under the sea floor is what I saw in a paper.
You put the waste on the downward plate. Plate tectonics will carry the waste holes down under the ascending plate, down into the planet where it will be "cooked" for the next few million years.
The point being that this will be deep enough to be completely out of the biosphere. Once the wastes starts its downward journey then you can effectively forget about it.
Any disaster that is great enough to bring it to the surface after a few hundred years , well put it this way. Having a few tons of ancient toxic waste coming to the surface will be the least of your problems.
Sure the description here is a highly simplistic summary but that is the basic ideal.
Convert away from coal to natural gas. Which is cleaner and the country as much more of than coal. Coal's day is done. It doesn't matter if Trump wants to save the industry. The market has already decided to kill it off. Trump may get a few more years out of it by mining it and selling it to China, but in the US its dead.
I would rather see that 100B put to use building more natural gas plants to replace coal. Or even better put into alternative resources like better fission, solar, or even fusion research.
Plus you people are forgetting the environmental movement itself. Lots of the public may not be convinced that climate change is real but they sure as hell know coal plants are dangerous. Are you going to let one be built in your back yard?
This is the big issue. It's not that Trump wants to destroy the planet, like some snowflakes keep yacking about. It's the funneling of a hundred of billion dollars into third world countries where it won't mean a damn.
What if instead we took that 100 Billion and put it toward domestic improvements in our own carbon emissions. You know, clean up our own crap instead of paying someone to clean up theirs.

No, that is a riot but up until that they where well with in their rights to protest anything they want too.
