  1. Re:Response to Walmart.com on Amazon Quietly Lowered Its Free Shipping Minimum to $35 (fortune.com) · · Score: 1

    I'm sure it has nothing to do with Walmart offering free 2-day shipping on orders greater than $35, no membership required.... Under $35, no worries, $5.99.

    Walmart also has a reputation for shipping things out promptly unlike Amazon. Amazon is fine if you have prime, but if you choose free shipping, there are times you may wait a week for your item to even ship.

    Bingo. Walmart also has the best customer service you will find.

  2. Hey don't forget Teddy Ruxpin, worlds of wonder on How Atari's Nolan Bushnell Pioneered the Tech Incubator In the 1980s (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 1

    Bushnell was all over the place. It's a real shame he sold Atari to Warner. Steve Ross the CEO at the time had nothing to recommend him. He had no knowledge of technology, and even by today's standards of CEO's being narcissistic assholes he was one for the books.

    My parents were born before the Balfour declaration, but thank you for answering my earlier question. There is indeed, no subject on this earth that you will not speak on in total and complete ignorance. From your statements in this thread alone the spew of anti-information that comes from you is beyond belief.

    Your statement above that Israel started its wars to affect election outcomes is beyond belief and worthy of Alex Jones in it's insanity.

    I have to ask are you paid to spout this stupidity or do you just have no self respect ?

    Point two is not correct. Take a look at what has happened at the time of each election cycle in Israel to see the timing of the aggression,

    Yes Israel's elections caused Syria, Jordan and Egypt to attack. Everybody loves to have a war where they outnumbered over 20 to 1

    Oh god here we go again.
    1. The U.S had treaties with the Indians and was indisputiably the aggressor
    2. Israel was indisputably defending itself from aggression
    Or did you think a sneak attack when 90+% of the country was participating in its most important holiday, was just a really clever ruse by the Jews ?

    And I'd love to live in a world where conservatives didn't spend the last 8 years trying to repeal a successful law without a plan for what they want to do instead.

    You need to define an interval now. The individual mandate just got executive ordered away. As for what's instead nothing is a completely acceptable answer.

  20. Granted, that may be an issue if one party has a broad field of candidates and the other has only two, but how common is that, really?

    2016 ?

    It isn't even a function so much of the initial state as the rate of convergence. For the sake of argument lets say party A and B both start with 8 candidates but by the time New Hampshire is done party A has one clear front runner and someone left obviously playing for the VP spot. If party B still has 5 or more viable candidates it's a winning strategy for party A to have people tilt Party B towards weaker candidates and less unity.

  21. It isn't a question of good or bad, it's more unified vs less unified. To a certain extent primaries are meant to be internal party events to build unity within the party. With open primaries whichever party unifies quickest can disrupt the other party.
