Hey, I must have missed the part where the Constitution talks about "Climate Change" and ctrl-F doesn't seem to find it. Can you copy/paste that in for me?
Think so? Why even bother with replacing them? Trump's not a "yes" man. He doesn't need them to stroke his ego. Shut them down and be done with it. After that, move onto the EPA and the Department of Education.
"companies should not be engaged in politics and social justice activism and engineering"
This is exactly what is killing Twitter. Outright bans, shadowbans, and their new Safety Center has turned Twitter into Jack Dorsey's own little echo-chamber. He and the staff of Twitter have even broken their own Mission statement by kicking people off the service they don't agree with...
Our mission: To give everyone the power to create and share ideas and information instantly, without barriers.
In the end, Twitter is going to crash and burn just like Yahoo for their SLW activities.
Dude, really? They can't get rid of the male population. Who the heck are they going to ask to get the stuff down from that really high shelf? You can't just leave step stools around, cluttering up your environment.
But how does a lifetime "public servant" become a multi-millionaire? I'm sorry, but politicians are held to a higher standard as we elect them to represent us- our rights, our causes, our needs and interests. They aren't elected to profit off insider information, selling "pay for play" or to advance their causes over those they represent. You might think Trump is corrupt, but as a private individual (at least until he threw his hat into the 2016 ring), he should not bear the same scrutiny as Hillary. He and his businesses have followed and taken advantage of good and bad laws, some he's been called to account for (1972 racial discrimination rental case) and other's he's benefitted from. Hillary, OTOH, has been on the law creation side, and has had a hand in crafting laws specifically to benefit her interests, which is not what she was elected (or appointed) to do. If you decide to vote for Hillary, it signifies that you condone her actions. And it's not like they've been "hidden" or "secret". From Whitewater, to TravelGate, to Email scandal, to Benghazi to (insert 30 other Clinton scandals), she has shown her hand. Nothing Donald Trump has done is even remotely on the scale of corruption that Hillary has shown.
Agreed. Politically correct needs to go- individualized pronouns, safe spaces, the whole lot. Senators or Representatives (D or R) "elected for life" need to go find a real job. If you're part of the solution, chip in. If you're part of the problem, straighten out, get humble and grab a shovel, because we've got a lot of work to do. If you don't like it, go find a country that will put up with your whiney ass because America has no interest in anyone who doesn't pull their own weight.
Don't get it, eh? Trump is not the GOP, which is why he was the winning candidate. This election is about immigration, national identity and an economy that's fscking over the middle class and making them pay for everything. The GOP as a party is dead, they just haven't stopped twitching. All you have to do is look at HRC and Trump's campaign slogans- "I'm With Her" is all about Hillary, who will continue to screw over the white middle class to bring in Democrat-voting, public assistance-using blacks, latinos and migrants and make the middle class pay to become a singled-out minority. Trump's "Make America Great Again" is about America for Americans, "To Ourselves and Our Posterity" and looking out for the American who wants an equal footing and opportunity (used or not) to be his or her own person. America is equal opportunity, not equal outcome and anyone who's tells you differently is a Democrat.
What a clueless git. So think of it this way- when Trump is elected President, the media will be a serious watchdog on everything he does for the next 4 years. Good or bad, you'll know about it. IF Hillary is elected, the media will continue to faun over her, hide her illegal dealings, lie about events far worse than Benghazi and EmailGate and generally ignore every illegal, immoral or unConstitutional thing she does. You think that Obama's emphasis on race relations is bad, just wait. She's all pay for play and there will be a slew of VERY unsavory characters that run through the White House, and not all of them will be sporting a blue dress. Pick your poison brother, because Hillary for the next 4 years will end in a civil war.
You'll be able to thank Techies, GG'ers and the Alt-Right for systemically rending the lies of HRC and keeping her from getting elected to POTUS. Yeah, yeah. Whine about Donald, but look at the mottos- "Make America Great Again" (about you and me and other Americans) versus "I'm With Her" which is not only all about Hillary, but suggests that you condone, nee, support her lies, obfuscated truths and definition of what "confidential" is. Techies have dredged emails, freelanced journalism and asked a slew of tech questions which have not only helped reveal the lies of a presidential candidate, but will also make sure President Donald Trump stays on the straight and narrow and doesn't fsck over the American people like the last 3 or 4 have.
Because the signs of Parkinson's visibly manifest themselves. It is not a disease that can be hidden from physicians and caregiver's that are familiar with the tremors, jerky head movements, her "short circuiting" and other physical signs.
And along with the missed date, Neil reports that what he actually said was "That's one small step for *a* man, one giant leap for mankind". In the revideo of the broadcast from Australia (original receiving location) there was a bit of fuzz that missed the "a".
Yeah, more than that. Factory MPG is set with 100% gasoline, whereas US gas stations are forced to dispense somewhere between 10-15% Ethanol which results in a 4-8% reduction in MPG. Factory MPG is set on flat tracks at a highway speed of 50 mph and a city speed of 35 mpg. They also average it out as 55% city and 45% highway, which matches almost no one's driving pattern. I can just barely beat the factory highway MPG of my 2006 Subaru Outback (23 city/28 highway) but only by hypermiling and 75% highway. There's almost no way a normal human driver can match (or beat) the factory MPG without some significant changes to their driving patterns.
As an American, you should never allow it either. If you haven't figured out, the founding mantra of the USA is "equal opportunity, not equal outcome". By forcing successful and contributing citizens to pay for someone else's income encourages mediocrity and abuse. Just look at all the failed socialist countries who had this as their main goal, with Venezuela as the latest example.
Pick a song and use the first line from it. "Scooby Dooby Doo, where are you?" with the next password iteration for the account being "We've got some work to do now". Substitute in your favorite alpha-numeric swaps or capitalize all formal names and not only have you got a longer than normal password, but also one with names, spaces, and a theme for easy memorization. You just need to have memorized the words for more songs than Happy Birthday....
Win 3.11 was an operating environment, so technically not the Win 3.x family. The real question is, will it work on WinME, because even officially authorized software was unable to work with it...
"How Long Before Self-Driving Cars Become Mainstream?"
Um, how long before Self-Driving cars are even available? Popular Mechanics kept telling me I'd have flying cars by the beginning of the 21st century and I've already written that off as vaporware.
Ah, you must live near one of those naturally occurring lithium battery fields I've been hearing so much about. You know, the ones where chaste young women frolic out into the fields with wicker baskets and collect the full-grown batteries just as they reach the peak of ripeness, in a wholly sustainable and zero-emission farming collective?
No? What? You mean you need to find and then mine the base ore in Argentina or Brazil, transport it to China, extract it, refine it, ship it across the Pacific Ocean yet again to the USA and then turn it into batteries? Then you need to worry about the toxic chemicals used in the manufacturing (and recycling and recovery) of the lithium. You know, like disaster mitigation. Cause you've got to put the overburden someplace, right?
You are correct Sir, I think the lesser of two evils is clear.
Ah-ha! Thankfully Jack had enough foresight to start Twitter's Trust and Safety Council. They're just the SJWs to smooth over any potential insults or hurtful words and make any possible concessions needed to keep the ISIS threat quelled. While ISIS is demanding a rather large "safe space", westerners need to check their white, democratic privilege and let these folks self-segregate so as to avoid any "justicesplaining" we might want to inflict on their sensitive feelings and need to provide a welcoming and comfortable environment for the followers of Allah.
I have a client running a Apple PowerMac 7200 (circa 1995), running MacOS 9.2.1 for a QuidProQuo webserver. Apart from a power outage 6 years ago (led to the purchase of a UPS for the system) it's been accessed almost daily during it's lifetime.
Really? Republicans? That's what you're going with? Get me if I'm wrong, but didn't a major Democrat (who's running for US President) stop using her State Department provided email account so she could send her mail through a mailserver she controlled, which would not be archived, audited or available to FOIA requests? And then when asked for the mailserver contents, said "hey, we went through it all and there's nothing of interest there. Hey, is that a squirrel over there?" God thing you're posting as AC. Should probably be AI, Anonymous Idiot...
Yup. I've got a 7yo girl that wants to be a princess *and* a paleontologist. And loves My Little Pony (Rainbow Dash) and Mikey from TMNT. Geez, the kid is 4 yo, get over it. The more you force them, the more they reject it. Apparently the OP hasn't gotten over that hurdle as a parent.
The trick is to integrate it into day-to-day life. We've been running a 2 year old experiment on Starbuck's compostable spoons at home (hint- they aren't so far, even in 10% vinegar solution). Buy butterfly gardens and raise them from larve, grow a garden and show your kids the bud, flower and fruit stages, get them a flippin' Estes Rocket kit. The only way to ignite their interest is to show them that you, as an adult, are interested. Hunt for fossils, buy a desiccated coyote skull off eBay and go over all the parts, built home-made lava lamps, melt army men with a magnifying glass. The possibilities are endless. As a bonus, you get a parenting merit badge for it, which is odd, as it's your job as a parent to make sure they have all the skills and knowledge to live as functioning adults.
All you have to do is take an *active* interest in your kids and they'll turn out fine. They're not stupid.They'll get irony and sarcasm (and everything else) way before you introduce them to Black Adder....
Do agree. I miss 4x3 displays as Widescreen sucks for anything but watching widescreen movies. These days, if clients get larger 16x9 displays I usually show them that they can be pivoted to portrait for easier file creation/editing and web browsing...
