Which one of these is not like the others? I mean, besides segregation being nowhere near the greatest evil in history, American segregation wasn't even that impressive. Have you even heard of South Africa? They were so worried about foreign challenges to their way of life that there were no TV stations there until the 1970s. The cultural turnaround was remarkable.
Let's hope they are a little more thorough than whoever was responsible for making sure Secretary Clinton only used the State Department email system for official communications.
Then your "black friend" is stupid, the reason the word is offensive to everyone it's because that's what was said right before your neighbors hanged you, or right before they beat and whipped your mother in front of you.
Oh. I guess if that never happened to you, then it shouldn't bother you.
Obama also ignored the restraining order and unilaterally issued 2,000 immigration permits.
He also de facto bypassed an injunction against his moratorium on Gulf drilling following the Deepwater Horizon disaster by imposing unlawful requirements for companies when reapplying for permits-- like making CEOs assume personal liability.
So what you're saying is that if Obama never had any wingnut critics, you'd believe what the facts are telling you about his motivation? Whether any of his critics are radicals or wingnuts is irrelevant to the question as to whether Obama favors big corporations, mass surveillance, and bypassing the courts and Congress to execute his policies.
To be fair, I am against a lot of things they do in public schools, yet I'm forced to pay property tax to support them. I don't seem to get an exemption, and no matter who I vote for in school board elections they all seem to do the same things.
The Celeron 300A was the version WITH the cache, which is the point. It had only 128K cache, but it was on-chip so in some applications it actually ran faster than some higher clocked chips with the 512K cache. If you unlocked the FSB so you could go up to 450 MHz, it flat out blew the P-III chips away.
After three years of being a video game tester, I became a lead tester and I spent the next three years going to back to school to learn computer programming. Despite working 80 hours a week for two to four weeks at a time, I was branded as not a "team player" by management because I had an exit strategy.
Zig Ziglar used to say, "the only thing worse than training an employee and having him leave, is not training him and having him STAY!" Employers who push an employee out for enriching himself, especially at his own expense, deserve to fail.
I agree with your assessment of its lack of popularity, but the very performance of the game proved your claim that it didn't have the hardware to do what an NES could do is wrong. Carmack figured out how to do it with EGA, and my personal experience was that the game was just as smooth as Super Mario. He even made a demo of SMB3, but Nintendo rejected it not because of its accuracy or performance, but because they were not interested in anything but their own platforms.
Well, you'll have to excuse anyone under 40 for having grown up in a world where it's settled that inexpensive handguns were outlawed because they were being used mostly by criminals, though in reality they were in the hands of poor urbanites. It made the ruling elite nervous that large numbers of their subjects were mad as hell and not going to take it anymore, so they created the narrative that gun dealers were cranking out cheap guns for murderers, robbers, and drug dealers. This allowed them to create a climate of fear and get their laws passed without objection-- even though the police have established that they have no obligation to defend these defenseless people.
I recall an article on Obama winning the election back in 2008. That was the last time a pro-Obama article made the front page of slashdot. Since then it has been a regular parade of how evil he - and everyone in his administration - is.
Because he hasn't done anything to warrant the admiration of the "News for Nerds" community.
The USA Patriot Act is (mostly) still in place.
Gitmo still holds people without charges.
Cannabis is still illegal.
Civil forfeiture still exists.
The IRS is (still) going after people the administration doesn't like.
Obama promised the most transparent administration, yet it's probably the most secretive one since FDR's WWII administration.
The world, especially the Middle East, still hates us, yet he has the gall to claim that they love us now because of him.
What positive "News for Nerds" are we supposed to report, again? Obamacare?
It's clear that Capone did violate tax laws. He had undeclared income. Even if what he'd done was legal, he hadn't paid tax on it and the amount of tax in arrears was documented. It isn't the same. It would be similar if, say, the statute of limitations on tax evasion was 10 years and the IRS tried to go after him 11 years later for hiding the money.
If someone tinkered with MySQL, that would indicate personal interest, which I would probably take over someone who worked at eight different McJobs over 3 years before getting a diploma from ITT Tech.
That's not statistics at all, but a logical fallacy.
I guess what we're proving here is that people who don't understand statistics can be easily fooled when they're given information that is derived from them.

Yup
Definitely.

Hmm... I much prefer Conan the Barbarian's office rules.

I'll make sure it's all 20s. CRITICAL HIT
Did you choose Biden over Palin because she's female?

How about a straw man? Or a false dilemma? Would either of those help?

I work for a company with over 21,000 employees, and several units have Windows 2003 servers that are being retired as we speak.
There are two kinds of Democrats: millionaires and pawns.

They'll be right down the hall from where quaint notions like the rights to life, liberty, and property are exhibited.

He's a kiddie scripter.
The proper usage cycle for NiCd actually REQUIRES that you drain them completely to avoid memory effects.
