But, I better be careful. cremier has threatened to shoot me before when I said things he didn't like, and since I am calling him a liar once again, I expect more of the same.
You never did explain how I threatened to shoot you. Every time I pointed that out, you scurried back into the shadows like a cockroach.
You can actually blame Hillary shills for that as well. I remember hearing nonstop how they were registering republican during the primaries so they could get Trump to be the front runner because there was NO WAY she could lose to someone like him...
In retrospect, that was stupid. OTOH, The consequences of Trump winning the election will probably be the cleansing fire that both parties need desperately.
But Hillary was promoting him as a great candidate.
Because Jeb Bush and his family's fundraising machine was viewed as a greater strategic threat to her chances of winning the presidency.
All Hillary cares about is herself. She needs to be kicked off Twitter, and then out of our country.
This comment clearly demonstrates that you're not an American and don't appreciate American values. Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out of the country.
Specifically what part of the non-process did you find broken?
A slate of 16 candidates in 2016. We went from the Seven Dwarfs in 2012 to the Clown Car in 2016. Strong indicators that the RNC was out of control.
What should the process/party have done to prevent Trump (or any other candidate)?
A citizenship test that immigrants take. The same citizenship test that most Americans would flunk because they don't understand how the country works. A determined candidate would know the answers inside and out. A non-serious candidate like Trump would huff and puff about how "elitist" the test was.
Except they are sort of limited to who throws their hat into the ring...
The job of the party leadership to cultivate potential members to become leaders who run for higher office. It shouldn't be a process by happenstance. Trump is like the fat kid that no one wanted on their team, gets picked last and accidentally hits a home run because everyone thought the game was over.
[...] and unlike the Democrats, worked to not play favorites and let the candidates & their supporters duke it out.
*cough* Jeb Bush
*cough*
[...] thanks to the wonderful DNC nomination process, they ended up with the worst possible candidate.
After Super Tuesday, Bernie Sanders had to win every election with at least 60% of the votes to win the nomination. He failed to get the votes. If you removed the super delegates, he still failed to get the votes. The DNC, like the RNC, also failed to cultivate leaders for the nomination and let Hillary get it by default.
Of course, I contend that it was actually the election of Obama which moved the Overton window enough to make a Trump run & presidency possible.
George H.W. Bush's failure to win re-election in 1992 paved the way for the beginning of the end of the Republican Party that I knew.
It's entirely her fault we have Trump as President.
As a moderate conservative and former Republican, I put the blame on the RNC nomination process — or lack thereof. They had the responsibility to ensure that they fielded qualified candidates for the nomination. Trump is neither a conservative nor a Republican, and, until a few short years ago, a Clinton Democrat.:/
I've worked for IBM Help Desk only once for a few years. But I have worked in many former IBM shops with IBM-branded hardware and legacy software still lingering around.
One time I had a very onerous employment contract (i.e., $500 per day penalty for failing to turn in a proper two week notice) that an East Coast labor attorney drew up without checking California law. When a push came to a shove, I told the company to review the contract with a California labor attorney and discovered that it would be thrown out of a California court in five minutes. The contractor for the project ended up buying out my contract from the subcontractor and I signed a regular employment contract with them..
The threat of a potential lawsuit is enough to keep everyone in line. Whether the company has the resources to pursue a lawsuit is a different story. Most NDAs and/or IP agreements are pretty much the same. You sign it, forget about it, and move on with your life.
[...] void the contract you signed stating that if you invent something that it belongs to them [...]
I worked at a company that wanted everyone to sign a revised NDA that included company ownership of not just existing ideas at work but also past and future copyrights and trademarks. The entire department nearly walked out because everyone had extensive copyrights and trademarks that has nothing to do with the company. HR intervened and told legal to back off on the revised NDA.
The Democrats prefer to categorize people according to their ethnic identity (the hispanic vote, the black vote, etc.) but class and gender will do in a pinch.
You don't think the Republican's don't play identity politics as well? The Southern Strategy is based on pitting poor white voters against minority voters to get them to vote against their own interests while millionaire and billionaires make screw them over.
My iPad 2 is getting long in the tooth after five years. I only use it for the alarm clock app that blast an air raid siren at 4:30AM so I can catch the express bus at 6:00AM to start work at 7:00AM in Palo Alto.
Trump, being a businessman, won efficiently. That made it look as if he wasn't trying very hard; that doesn't mean he didn't want to win. He did just enough to ensure his victory, expending the most effort at the end of the campaign when it would be most effective..
That's an excuse, not a winning strategy. A winning strategy is winning the election AND re-election(s) with 51% of the vote, which was what Obama, Eisenhower and Roosevelt did in their own campaigns.
Trump has a good idea of what he wants to do as President, and how to accomplish it. The blind, spitting opposition by Democrats is the greatest risk of continuing America's decline.
People who make excuses for Trump are contributing to the decline of this country.
Senator Clinton served eight years (2001-2009) in the Senate before becoming Secretary of State. She also won the primary elections for the 2016 Democratic nomination. She's certainty more qualified than the current occupant of the White House.
No, you dumb twat, the fabric3 under discussion is a python [python.org] module [github.com], as the 'pip3 install fabric3' command would have suggested to you, if you weren't a half-wit with no knowledge of python, and no legitimate reason to be near the business end of a computer.
It took 45 minutes to get Fabric3 working under PowerShell but not Cygwin, the fab file generated by Pelican for a single website has 60+ more lines of code than the Ant build.xml file I wrote from scratch, and the configuration variables are all wrong. I'm not impressed.
You are very confused. The progressive left and owned media continue unabated with claims of being a Russian puppet (Comey stated again today that there is no evidence for Russia connections). This is in addition to the Progressives claiming him and everyone else who disagrees with their agenda is a racist, homophobe, Islamaphobe, xenophobe, misogynist, Nazi, antisemitic, and deplorable. The only time Trump or his administration said something about wiretapping was to force them to put up or shut up. Which amazingly the media changed their tune and went from dozens of reports from unnamed sources to "we don't know where he got that information".
Meanwhile the Progressives and their paid-for protesters continue to lose support because people are fed up with the lies from them and media. GP stated that he left the Republican party, and I laugh. I know at least a hundred family members, friends, and acquaintances who left the Democratic party since they started their tirade the day after the election.
Your comment is a perfect example of why I left the Republican Party before the 2016 campaign started.
You were never a conservative; it's just a lie you tell people to make yourself sound 'credible'. It doesn't work.
Why would I "lie" to be "credible" on Slashdot? I come here to amuse myself by playing with the trolls while waiting for a script to finish running at work.
Trumps flavor ability right now is higher than the DNC
Classic tea party response. Most people are going to find Trump very sour-tasting in the near future. Trump's favorability is still sinking and lower than the DNC.
The Dems are caving left and right on Trump's appointees, and there is no reason to believe this will stop any time soon.
Last I read that Trump was still trying to find 500+ people out of 320M people who haven't said a negative thing about him to fill all those vacant government positions.

And considering it's a a four year old device, the battery life is actually still decent.
I had a first generation iPod Touch that lasted eight years before the battery died. Battery life was touch and go for the last year or so.
Explain creimer why people choose to live in or around SV if they have a low paying job (compared to tech workers)?
Explain AC why you're asking an off-topic question?

Wow. Just wow. It's hard to find a more biased source than the oh so diverse Huffington Post. [prntly.com] They're even worse than MSNBC.
A biased source would Breitbart or Fox News. See how much trouble Trump's gets into after tweeting something from those sources?
Stay in the Democratic party, I'm sure they have a way to play to your identity too.
What identity would that be?
You are very confused. The progressive left and owned media continue unabated with claims of being a Russian puppet (Comey stated again today that there is no evidence for Russia connections).

You mean a sore winner. I've never seen anyone so butthurt over a victory.
Like proverbial dog who caught a car, Trump didn't expect to win and doesn't know what to do as POTUS.
You were never a conservative; it's just a lie you tell people to make yourself sound 'credible'. It doesn't work.

Nope. This is ancient history. Almost pre-Internet (circa 1997).
