Read the unscientific "study" on Second Life. Seriously-- read it. It has nothing to do with how Second Life is programmed. They set up a biased scenario by presenting a fake article to the subjects and were surprised when the results were biased. Then they cite one anecdote from a player who said he was the token black in the game.
No one suggests that Second Life doesn't have diverse avatars, or that people are penalized for being non-white.
Garbage.
Most people probably don't realize there is a setting for this, but yes, there should be a menu for display settings that allows you to set the temperature for the LED backlight. I have it in my Sharp.
Why is it that when a socialist ruins a nation, it's because that socialist was just a bad guy, but when an alleged free-market type ruins a nation, it's because free markets are bad?
missed that the poor now have 60 inch 1080p tv sets.
... that they are leasing from Aarons/RAC, and the water heater broke so they haven't made two payments and it's probably going to be repossessed soon.
I know we love our car analogies, but 40 year old cars can be, and are, driven on the roads in the USA. Heck, Cuba's are even older. And if things like safety and emissions bother you, you can retrofit a modern computer-controlled engine, ABS disc brakes, and modern safety belts. It's not really possible to install crumple zones, though, so like a nuclear reactor, a 40 year old car will never be quite as safe. However, when a 40 year old car is in an accident, it affects several orders of magnitude fewer people than a reactor accident. So, yeah, let's hope we've learned that politics need to stay out of energy, so that we can move away from obsolete nuclear and coal power and into newer, safer nuclear reactors and renewable energy.
The classical way would be work through a coinop car wash or laundromat partner and then launder it through them by inflating the sales over a few years.
Um, you can buy everything Home Depot sells from somewhere else. If they choose to raise their prices and hope that they don't lose sales to competition, that's their call.
he helped solve Childhood hunger but then cut taxes so we couldn't afford it anymore. He removed our ability to deduct credit card interest rates on taxes.
So I take it you're both FOR and AGAINST higher taxes?
I love when some amateur internet "economist" dismisses a great economist as an idiot and, as proof, holds up public assistance programs as if they are net wealth creators.
I'm pretty sure the Civil Rights Act of 1964 blows the straight numbers out of proportion. They're absolutely unreliable for other reasons as well, such as changing census questions that did not break out Hispanics and "whites", and the adjustment of the poverty line based on differing interpretations of the COL.
Oh. I kind thought it was like that South Park episode where the cure for HIV was injecting tons and tons of cash directly into the bloodstream, but I think your idea is more sound.

It's only unremarkable because he's so good at it.

Indeed. A planet is no moon.

60 Hz refresh in an LCD does not have the same impact as 60 Hz in a CRT. The proof is literally right in front of your eyes.

Nixon and FDR.
Oh, you weren't serious? Shut up, and let the adults speak.

Obama said in his tweet that he looked forward to hearing directly from the Cuban people.
Unfortunately, most of the people who wanted to speak with him were arrested Sunday night.

Windows NT didn't require activation. In fact, I think XP was the first version that required it, and 2008 the first server version.
Quarters contain no zinc. They are mostly copper, with the remainder nickel.
That's pretty close to literally laundering it.
... at the arcade, while I try to get past the kill screen on Pac-Man.
No.

FYI, SQL Server 2005 is EOL April 12th this year.
According to a very old Supreme Court decision, basically anything is interstate commerce because it COULD POSSIBLY affect interstate commerce.
So I take it you're both FOR and AGAINST higher taxes?
Then support it with your time and money, not someone else's.

Not sure who ever decided that crony capitalism was a conservative principle.
