  1. It DOES happen - but only for the netboot-enabled clients.

    EG the AC is telling a half-truth to scare people.

    It doesn't work on a regular desktop install.

  2. Share Video Internally on Microsoft Stream Is a New Video Service For Businesses (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 2

    You're already on the internal network. Make a shared videos folder and have people just access them from the network share via some e-mail link or internal site link what not, this is not difficult at all. You don't need Microsoft to make a service for you - well maybe you do if you can't think of something this utterly simple.

    Which is why there are... 14 movies, 5-6 TV series, an animated series, at least a dozen games based on the franchise, etc.

    Yup, Paramount/Desilu just said FUCK IT, WE'RE GOING TO DUMP MONEY DOWN THIS USELESS HOLE FOR NO GODDAMNED REASON!

    "You'll learn about cool things such as bullet proof vests actually being made out of plastic instead of steel."

    Shitty bullet proof vests. GOOD ones are made from human hair or spider silk.

    But I ACTUALLY HAVE TO STUDY THIS KIND OF STUFF *WHEN I DESIGN FOR EARTHQUAKE PROOFED EQUIPMENT* like my LED lighting.

    Try again?

    I've also hit many trees. Very few are actually left standing from an older vehicular impact - they perform the same crumple zone action as your shitter modern cars.

    Apprenticed Oriental cook at age 15, provable on my fucking tax records. Try again when you're even competent in knowing who you're trying to attack you witless dick.

  7. Where are they? Because that'd be the first actual medically-diagnosed marijuana overdose to ever be on record.

    And is yet nowhere present in any literature on the topic I can find. You're not providing names, case, any information.

    Which means you're likely full of crap, or else you'd have provided the information instead of responding with a very short sentence.

    Shit, I'd invest because I could mine the crap out of that area for all the resources.

    You've not been paying attention to all those minerals lying on the ocean floor and beaches just waiting to be extracted.

    " What happened to the supremacy of federal law?"

    It never existed except for various HIGHLY-SPECIFIC circumstances. Otherwise, the 10th Amendment wins.

    The states are SUPPOSED to have their own autonomy, and the Federal Government is really only supposed to be there to ensure a balanced union of territories with varying beliefs and laws.

    That's because those people were likely already addicted to opiates before the law passed because they didn't have the choice to first choose medical cannabis. The addiction just doesn't magically go away now with pot laws added to the equation.

    People that are given the proper chance to make a choice generally try making the less harmful choice. Since that option wasn't available to them, they were put on the addictive path.

  12. " I'll remember that next time another 2-year old dies because the kid's guardian overdosed the kid to get him to shut up and then dumps the body in the middle of the night."

    And you've got the toxicology report to show us to PROVE it was *JUST* cannabis and nothing else?

    Start fucking dropping docs, and back your fucking words up.

    Yet you just literally made the fucking comparison, also known as a differentiation.

  14. "In reality, many doctors don't know what to do"

    Which is why I have little faith in doctors today. Most have no desire to figure out the underlying cause (let alone they simply can't think to do such a thing,) and just proscribe pills.

    Sugar cane grows all over the fucking place. Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee, all over the south. I've grown sugar cane in every state I've lived in excepting California, where I can just walk over to the Mexican market or local Farmer's Market and buy the stuff directly (That means it's also grown here in California.)

    "How do you tell if something that appears to be a bird is really a bird or a drone disguised as one?"

    For starters, the only bird type that can hover in one spot is the Hummingbird. If you see a large bird hovering perfectly still in one spot, you can bet your ass it's a drone.
