No really, this question is beyond stupid. It's obviously because someone still needs it for old hardware. They wouldn't bother selling it if nobody was buying.
If you want to see a trailer that does deserve nomination, you should look at the trailer for Crawl. Excellent voice acting and writing, and it describes the game really well.
Apple has been trying to belittle its opponents since the beginning. It's how they roll. Just look at the old mac vs pc commercials. I have to agree though, the days of innovation at Apple are dead under Cook's leadership. When your best idea is removing features, it's time to rethink your strategy.
Finally, someone who gets it. It's funny how libs are always screaming to censor people's thoughts and ideas, but when someone censors them they scream bloody murder.
Don't count on Donald Trump securing our voting machines any time soon. Trump is on Russia's payroll and only acts in their interest.
This statement is incredibly dumb. Trump is independently wealthy already, what exactly makes you think he needs to be on anyone's payroll? One of the points in favor of Trump was that he didn't need to suck on anyone's teat for a payday. Yet, far left supporters seem to think it's the only reason he's there even though that argument makes no sense whatsoever. It's just grasping at straws.
There's still no evidence the Russians were even involved. This is what really irritates me - not that it may or may not have been Russians, but that with zero conclusive evidence you've already made up your mind that you know who the bad guy is. What this says to me is that you're a proponent of the far left, which is just as bad if not worse than the far right. You have your head so far up your own ass that you're trying to use hyperbole as facts.
Did the Russians hack, or at the very least attempt to hack the election? It's possible, but we don't really know. Even if we had something conclusive in that direction we don't know what the motive was, or if it was government sponsored or just some guys doing it for the lulz. We have some IPs and a time of day but any junior network technician can tell you that isn't really actionable evidence because it's possible to proxy yourself around the world in order to hide your true origin. The only thing we've got right now is a potential lead. If you're truly interested in facts then you have to stop letting emotion dictate your conclusion and start allowing the collected intelligence tell you the story. Right now, the story barely fits in a paragraph.
Twitter used to be about the free exchange of ideas and thoughts. Now it's an SJW infested viper pit where the slightest deviation from SJW opinion is banned. Twitter forgot their original mission and is suffering as a result. If they can't figure out what their users actually want they don't deserve to survive.
This is exactly why I hate the word "bloat". It means something different to every person who uses it. To many oldschool unix gurus any kind of GUI is bloat. To most people here, "bloat" just means "something I don't like and would remove". Rarely does it ever mean "unnecessary software that makes things slower". "Bloat" is little more than a geek buzzword to me now as a result.
Only really a problem if you continue to drink Apple's koolaid. Many of us figured out long ago that Macs simply do not fit very well if you want a cost effective, practical solution for a variety of tasks. The proponents of Apple want you to believe that the company can't do any wrong. The people who think objectively about the company and its products know they can, and have.
...you'll find it in the dictionary in between shit and syphilis. It's high time countries started forcing companies to take care of their own instead of being allowed to bring in cheap Indian replacements. Let India solve it's own labor problems.
The biggest problem has been and always will be that there's no way to tell signal from noise in an automated way that makes sense. Any system will be gamed or abused to push a personal agenda. Any forum that sees to much traffic becomes unusable as it drowns in a sea of voices. Those who post sooner have a greater chance of being heard than those who post later. Good ideas get lost if they're too far to the bottom because nobody's got time for that.
Even Slashdot is not immune to this. Forums universally suck because it's hard to have a discussion involving hundreds or even thousands of people without things getting lost.
I can agree with what you're saying to a point if it weren't for the fact that I have a very difficult time finding a truthful argument these activist groups. Maybe I'm just hearing the wrong groups. Perhaps you can point me in the direction of the people who have something truthful to say. They seem so incredibly resistant to any kind of opposing discussion sometimes to the point of violent or crude behavior. As for "leaning on a video", there are hundreds of these videos to lean on where supporters and sometimes leaders of these groups start behaving less like well reasoned people and more like animals - often more racist and/or misandric than those they take aim at.
As far as modern media is concerned, it has become acceptable for women to bash men without reason and for black people to spew racism against white people. It doesn't matter if you don't hate women and have never been racist - you had best start apologizing for their laundry list of issues because of your gender and skin color. These polarizing near-militant attitudes are generating a lot of hate and resentment, much of which is thankfully only pointed at the activists themselves. My fear is that eventually after enough bashing a large subset of people who were previously unfairly targeted will begin to lash out by becoming the very things they keep getting baselessly blamed for.
If you want real equality then you can't give preferred treatment to anyone. This means no diversity quotas, no handouts. Want to know how to stop getting shot by police? Stop committing crimes. Want to know how to get along better with men? Stop treating every single one you meet like the enemy. Want to know how to get in to the tech fields? Get and education. Start judging people as individuals instead of a borg hive mind that is linked by the color of their skin or what's between their legs.
These groups are not looking to become equal. They're already equal. They're looking to become superior and that needs to stop.
No, that's the truth. I wouldn't expect you to take my word for it though. Really examine the complaints made by the feminists and/or BLM members, and then follow the evidence. It's hard to find any kind of cohesive argument that doesn't fall apart the moment you begin to pragmatically check everything they're saying. These "movements" (really, they share more in common with cults) are harming society, and people like you are helping them to do it by not questioning anything.
Start a real conversation, go in to it willing to follow the evidence wherever it leads. Think for yourself for once instead of letting political radicals do it for you.
Justice implies someone has been wronged. In this case, nobody has been wronged. What we have here is a fabrication in order to achieve a protected status. Most of the vocal groups these days are just making shit up now to elevate themselves. Racism and sexism will never be completely gone, but they're also not pandemic like the proponents are claiming.
When you encounter racism or sexism combat it - but stop trying to make every single white male the enemy. If you continue to demonize everyone you'll cause the very thing you're trying to prevent.
The problem is that social justice isn't justice. It's presently a weapon for deposing some while elevating others. It leads to a system where position is not determined by merit, but by how protected you class of minority is.
Right now this woman is completely stupid to try to make this statement. Women are accepted to universities more than men. Women are generally graded higher than men. Women have a 2:1 advantage in technical fields than men. Perfectly good male candidates are punished now just because of their gender and skin color. There's sexism and prejudice right now, but it's not aimed at women.
That's exactly it. He'll point to any policy endorsed by any of those publications and start screaming "Nazi!" without actually giving us any white supremacy examples. White nationalism is not the same thing as white supremacy. In fact, many of these Nationalists are trying to use the system as it was intended to voice their own opposition to various things that are happening in the country. In most cases this is carried out it a peaceful and orderly fashion by exercising their constitutional rights and freedoms. You don't have to agree with their ideas but trying to paint "Nazi" all over them with broad undiscriminating strokes in an attempt to silence reasonable debate via lies and ad hominem attacks is ironically a far more fascist policy than anything the Nationalists have suggested.
They need to stop doing that. It doesn't make anything better. It makes things far worse.
Instead, if you think you have a point worth considering present it in a calm and reasonable manner to be considered and criticized by other people. Screaming louder than your opposition is not how you should try to win arguments.
Americans should have the right to protect their own culture. Nobody is suggesting that segregation, social subclasses, or extermination as ways to do this. Non-whites are welcome to be a part of American culture, but they have to stop trying to destroy and subjugate it first.
There is, but I'm not sure it's enough to sustain the market. VR is not selling that well and game publishers are backing away from committing to the platform as a result.

Nothing says "I made the right decision!" Like a mouthful of Apple's courage!

Perhaps you should ask yourself that next time you need medical treatment.
Oh, we're getting our facts from vanityfair now! They've never done anything like publish clickbait before! Good job!
Do you have an actual reputable source for that information? Linking to a health food store hardly seems impartial.
...exactly nobody was surprised. Multi-billion dollar tech company screws with politics for profit. This isn't news, it's par for the course.
...you'll find it in the dictionary in between shit and syphilis. It's high time countries started forcing companies to take care of their own instead of being allowed to bring in cheap Indian replacements. Let India solve it's own labor problems.
Sounds like someone who has never worked in the industry. Ever.
