    Happens. My Father in law was a Korean War vet and hit his 55 in 1988. Poof, he was canned. I felt it was clear cut discrimination. NOBODY would even talk to him about a case. Even a lawyer that seemed to specialize in it.

    I know, I know, this is the 2010s and it's way different now, right? It's amazing how every generation thinks the same thing.

    Check out your history dude. Obama intentionally made the wrong decision time after time in that region causing the boiling over toilet bowl we have there right now. Egypt today would be enslaved under the muslim brotherhood if they hadn't risen up and put them down like the swine they are. They intentionally caused the refugee problem over there, and here. Look forward to shootings, bombings in the US as Directory Comey told Congress recently. It'll be a lot worse if you vote for Hillary.

    Well that's obvious, isn't it? If you vote for Hillary, you're really voting for Kaine.

    The Presidency takes a hell of a toll on everyone in there, even Obama and he's a playboy. I doubt she'll even make January 20th. Even if she gets in, I'm sure they'll start impeachment proceedings against her. So many charges to bring against her and they'll have no choice but to convict. Almost all of them are slam dunk cases.

    Just a formality. Being part of the EU is stupid and I think everyone in the UK understands that. Take back your sovereignty. Then you can kick out the invading force, sometimes called refugees. Get rid of the Soros funded destruction of Europe.

So called "adjustments" that happen to put this year in record hot months every month. Just wait a few days, I'm sure a /. article will be saying once again - October was a record hot month.

    As for RHCE, whenever I hire one, they're always top notch. I never have to show them system stuff. Just how to use our ticketing system and they're off. Even if I ask them to fix a Solaris box.

    Here's a thought, dump the really bad OS and make something real instead of trying to bolt onto a really bad foundation. Great stuff on top of crap is still crap.

    Your really big chance was back in the late 1990s when you were being sued. Should have sold the OS to IBM for say a billion, then upgraded the OS to Linux. It's a win win win. You guys get a really good OS under it, Linux users get office, IBM gets screwed again. What more could we ask for?

    Oh, and you should have dumped monkey-boy years ago. Just google microsoft and monkey boy. No, it's not racist. Then google balmer and 1980s. You can see one of the original M$ commercials.

  20. Re:Nothing will come of this on FBI Probes Newly Discovered Hillary Clinton Emails and Reopens Investigation (telegraph.co.uk) · · Score: 1

    You won't have 8 years of Hillary. You'll probably have no years of Hillary. Vote for her and you're really voting for Tim Kaine. I think everyone but a few cool aid drinking people realize that. She has way to many scandals out there. She's as corrupt as they come. Besides her Espionage act problems (i.e. her e-mail server having secret and beyond docs, that's an espionage problem), there's RICO, Murder, all the way down to coordinating with a PAC group. The Donald Duck stuff and sending people to hit others at the trump rallies and shut down highways. The Donald Duck problems are ironic because those are Watergate era laws, some of which she helped push through. Love her to get busted for something she pushed though. Fits in with no good deed goes unpunished. This is not BS by the way, we have video of an awful lot of this stuff, so we can show she knew and we can show she was involved. No doubt about it. Then there's the e-mails. By someone that isn't even a US citizen, trying to show us just how much of our ass is sticking out.

    Besides, the numbers I've seen, Trump is crushing Hillary. The press is spinning it big time by using what we see from her advisor's e-mails that were leaked - how to sample to bullshit people. Trump is way ahead in all the key states. However it's a bitch because of they way they report it. It's not reports R=N, D=M. It's by party. So it's kind of a WAG.

    Now it's just a matter of the newspaper title - "Hillary Trumps Donald" or "Donald Trumps Hillary". Suppose by then it could be "Donald Trumps Kaine" if Hillary is in jail where she belongs. Where you or I certainly would be if we did anything like what she did.

  21. Why never Trump? Both sides seem to be against him, clearly he's not part of the corrupt problem. He actually created jobs, he actually knows about money and how to handle it, he actually knows how to handle labor, he's a businessman.

    Politicians are for the most part dumb people that think they know how to handle stuff. Don't know about money, don't know how to handle it, can't manage people worth a damn (they exempt themselves from just about every labor law the rest of us have to deal with), etc. Check them out sometime. Just California, we have Boxer and Feinstein, both wack jobs with no clue and they are from one of the largest states. The other house, look at the crazy people that were acting like babies and sitting on the house floor. http://www.usatoday.com/story/... . Why? It was so they can prevent people from buying guns that are on the no fly list. A list that there is no oversight to, no appeal, no due process, very un-American and they know it. A few of the Congressmen were on it, like Ted Kennedy. A Senator and even he wasn't able to find out how he was added. A US Senator! So to ban guns, easy, just add everyone to the list. They've got to know it's unconstitutional, though I'm sure they don't care. Just blatant bullshit, yet people still support Democrats and Republicans. They both smell like last week's fish catch in the dumpster, or a rendering plant, take you pick.

    Why keep the madness going on? An opportunity like this comes up about once a lifetime. You can do something about it. It's time to dump the crap out of Washington and Trump is your best bet to do that. He'll be a one term President I bet. Clearly way better than Hillary. Besides, even if she wins, she loses. If you vote for her, you're really voting for Tim Kaine because that's who will be either be President right off, or will be President when she's removed or resigns. There's no getting around all of her crimes. Espionage, corruption, murder, racketeering, and so on.

  22. Those at the to of the economic scale also tend to be older. RTFA says they're doing it via eye movement. I'm certainly not at the top of the economic scale, however I noticed that as I'm older my mind is a lot better at filtering. Recently I was in an elevator with 4 women. I knew one of them, though I don't see her very often. She's married now and isn't keeping herself up. Before, yea man! You bet I'd notice her! She was really hot. Now, I didn't even see her. She said hi to me. Same thing driving. As a young man, I'd see every little thing on the road. Today I can go the 45 minutes to work and as long as nothing's new, I don't see entire highways. Brain thought is also at a higher price. Aviation has found that as we get older, we can't handle as much as we used to. The FAA won't take new air traffic controllers for training if you're over 30. You simply won't be able to handle it. If you're already one, you generally will be fine and can continue. I've flown into airspace where those guys are rattling off commands to aircraft like a machine gun. Not even 1 second of open air is between talking.

    On the street which is where they were doing their survey, I'm likewise filtering a lot of stuff out. Maybe this has more to do with older minds than with economic status.

  25. The US hasn't had a two party system in years. It was dying in 1988 and they buried it in 2008. Now we have a group that are called Republicans, though they aren't really. They would be Democrats back in 1988. The Democrats today are what we called communist/socialist back then. Remember the Nationalist Socliast party - aka NAZI party? That's the new Dems, sending in thugs, beit health care if you remember that and more recently to Trump rallies. Incite violence, punch people, vandalize stuff, even recently they're into firebombing just like they did in the 1930s in Germany.

    Never did believe the sex stuff against Assange. It really smelled fishy.
