This might shock you, but the actual percentage of LGBT persons is like 1% of the population. Why are we bending over backward for such a tiny minority in the first place?
I'd dispute that number as actual surveys have found the results always higher than 1% but for the sake of arguing, lets say it is 1%. US population is 319m. 1% of that is 3.19 million people. There are laws that are passed all the time that affect far few That's more people than 21 states, DC, or 5 US territories individually. Would you ever say "Sorry Hawaii, we'd like to pass a law but you just don't have enough people to worry about"? Or how about "Sorry Iowa, yeah that flooding or tornado you had is pretty awful but we can't authorize any federal disaster because you're only at.97% of the US population and you just don't matter"?
They don't deserve special treatment.
You're absolutely right on this point. LGBT don't deserve any special treatments. They should be able to marry who they want, adopt children, have families, receive benefits, use the restroom they are most comfortable with, etc just like everyone else. We must get rid of special treatments that treat LGBT as less of people than what they are.
Original comment said irritation. I said asthma attack. You said inflammation. I'll admit they are all related, but I don't put them as equivalent. I put the asthma attack as a severe inflammation and much worse than just an irritation.
Regardless, you can't say it causes zero impact just by dismissing a major potential issue (and completely dismissing all the other issues others have posted). Otherwise you can say stuff like science has consistently shown a gun shot wound has zero impact on anyone, aside from annoying people and irritating tissue in the vicinity of the wound.
As a Representative, he co-sponsored an amendment to prohibit same sex marriage. He voted against the Employee Non-Discrimination Act because it would prevent discrimination based on sexual orientation. He voted to oppose prosecuting hate crimes based on orientation. He voted against repealing of Don't Ask, Don't Tell. As governor, he allow businesses to discriminate based on orientation before RFRA was amended.
It's pretty clear that he has made hostile actions towards LGBT in what he's introduced, supported, or signed into law. As a politician, I'd say that qualifies more has hates LGBT rather than disagrees with LGBT.
There's never been any proof that second hand smoke is even remotely dangerous.
the NIH, CDC, Cancer.gov, American Cancer Association, Surgeon General, International Agency for Research on Cancer, American Lung Association, American Medical Association, just to name a few, would disagree with that statement. But I know, biased sources with agendas.
Over his 12 years in Congress, he was the primary sponsor for 63 bills. 18 made it to committee. 0 made it out to the floor even for consideration. He was useless in Congress. He was harmful to Indiana. If the pattern continues, he'll be awful as VP even with token powers.
I never commented on how big or small they were, just that he was convicted. They were federal felonies, so I'd say that they were more significant than not.
I purchased numerous items last year during Prime day including one of the LED TVs. All the deals I got in on did sell out, but I didn't employ any special technique or insider knowledge to get any of them. The only thing I did, and it wasn't a secret as many others were talking about it, was recognizing the time that the major deals were released. I believe it was 10 minutes till the top of the hour was when they were revealed. Signed in, hit refresh a few times, made purchase.
Anyone who says that there was nothing but useless items, microscopic discounts, or a complete fraud is wasn't looking, lying, or just bitter about not getting what they wanted.
Decrypting data doesn't alter evidence anymore than sequencing DNA evidence alters a blood sample, or sorting a bank transactions into deposits and withdrawls alters a bank statement used for evidence.
My legislative process is a little rusty, but I believe that it's not that the bill failed to pass, but that the motion to suspend the rules and fast track approval failed. That's why 2/3 was needed. It still got more than a majority that would be required to pass it if it took it's normal route. That should still be the troubling part.
It is a little refreshing to see a mixture of parties for both yeas and nays. I didn't think they were capable of voting for something and it not being a partisan issue.
So I have now taken Seagate off my list of potential hardware suppliers.
So who are you using then? Intel, AMD, Nvidia, Western Digital, Hitachi, Samsung...they've all had significant layoffs as part of cost cutting or restructuring. Your computers are going to suck if you just cross off names because they have layoffs.
Technically the cat herding is theoretically possible. Highly improbable, but could be done. Decrypting all information on the internet is impossible in an infinite amount of time, let alone 2 weeks.
If all you do is standard office tasks, probably not.. If you do graphics intensive applications (image editing, video editing, CAD, etc) or applications that can benefit from offloading tasks to GPU (via whatever technology/cores/execution units/stream processors the cards offer), then possibly/probably but the improvement may not be worth the extra cost, power, and or noise that comes with the discrete GPU.
According to media reports and Hollywood, quantum computers will be able to do anything normal computers do instantaneously. Find the last digit of pi, divide by 0, factor N where N = infinity, decrypt any and every unknown encryption algorithm, etc.
No, the spec says the BUS SPEED is 312MB each way. Actual read/write performance is up to the chip and is no where near that speed based on any real world review I could find. It's no different than trying to find a HDD or SSD that can transfer at 6gbit/second SATA-III speeds. It just doesn't exist (yet).
Those minutes add up when you're transferring files on and off of a memory card from a camera, camcorder, or similar portable device with potentially large amounts of data.

It'll be fun watching the Brits and Russia fight it out while each trying to be secure since both are essentially demanding the keys for everything.

What matters more, past views that have since changed, or past views that remain current today?

I'll let my wife know next asthma attack she gets from second hand smoke that she's fine and just imagining her inability to breath.

Depending on which Android device you have, just use the native Netflix app. Nexus Player, Amazon Fire TV, and Nvidia Shield can all do 1080p Netflix.

So pleading guilty to mail and tax fraud in 2002 isn't good enough to be considered a conviction anymore?
So buy it from one of the the 14 different retailers that are selling the movie through Amazon.

Much like Trump's hands among other Cheeto-colored body parts apparently.

UHS-I is equivalent to Class 10 speeds.

For the same reason why you'd store your payment information with Google, Apple, Samsung, Paypal, or any other payment service. Convenience.
A hand wound mechanical watch should last at least 24 hours and would typically be wound once a day.
