If it was a Muslim ban, how are Pakistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia and Malaysia not on that list - along w/ a mechanism in US consulates in India to deny Muslims any visas?
The 19 terrorists in the Sept. 11 attacks were from Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Lebanon and the United Arab Emirates, Myre points out. They are among the Muslim-majority countries not affected by Trump's immigration freeze, but where Trump does business.
He has significant commercial interests in Turkey and Azerbaijan, is developing properties in Indonesia and Dubai, and has formed companies in Egypt and Saudi Arabia. His daughter Ivanka said in 2015 that the company was looking at "multiple opportunities in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Qatar, Saudi Arabia — the four areas where we are seeing the most interest."
And I know this didn't answer your question about India, so here's the answer from the President's own "mouth":
NYC here. I was on the subway last night and all of a sudden there was a heavy river of liquid rolling down the car towards my feet. I figured somebody dropped their water bottle but no, it was this white guy who let loose with a flood of urine. He didn't seem to mind, just shifted in his seat and relaxed back. I didn't vote for Trump either. But I'm beginning to see that certain types of people just can't hold their water. I'm not sure I like having them riding in the same car I'm in, some rethinking is in order here.
It's not "partisan crap" when the Republican Congress is voting in lockstep to push through the Trump agenda.
Or when they refused to even hold a confirmation hearing for President Obama's Supreme Court nominee; or all of the other politically motivated blockages foisted upon the country by "Congress R Us".
Or do you mean that the Republican controlled Congress is indulging in "partisan crap"? If so then I agree wholeheartedly.
Still, if I had trademarked a weight loss candy named "Ebola" back in 1946 I probably have changed its name after the 1976 discovery of the Ebola virus. Unless I was being super ironic, that is.
I just can't imagine how the AYDS folks (and the airtime salespersons for the radio channels) could have been so tone deaf to what was happening.
It was a strange time. My jaw would drop to the floor every time the "AYDS diet candy" commercial came on the radio. There was no secret that we were in the middle of a devastating AIDS epidemic, but apparently a whole bunch of people didn't quite hear it. Certainly at least some of the radio folks must have understood how morbidly bizarre their airtime advertisements were.
No longer is the administration simply censoring scientific reports – it has moved to silence the scientists themselves. In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, the administration refused to allow a top federal scientist whose research links increased hurricane intensity to global warming to speak to the press. It sent out a gag order to top government polar scientists, demanding that anyone attending international scientific conventions agree not to speak to reporters about "climate change, polar bears and sea ice." And it ordered a former intern from the Bush-Cheney campaign in the NASA press office to prevent Dr. James Hansen, the godfather of global-warming science, from talking to the media.

Several reports by Shin Bet officials (Yuval Diskin, Yitzhak Ilan) alleged that Hamas used Al-Shifa hospital as a bunker and refuge, knowing it will be spared by air-strikes. Ahmed Jabari was one of the leaders of Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades alleged to have hidden there during the 2008–2009 Israel–Gaza conflict.[9][11]
In 2009, The Palestinian Health Ministry, run by the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank, accused Hamas members of taking control of wards in Shifa Hospital, using them for interrogation and imprisonment, while withholding medical care.[12]
During 2014, Operation Protective Edge, the hospital was described by The Washington Post as being a "de facto headquarters for Hamas leaders, who can be seen in the hallways and offices."[13] According to the WorldNetDaily, a conservative website[14] Middle Eastern security officials were said to believe that Hamas members are using the Al-Shifa Hospital complex in Gaza not only as a hiding place but also as a sanctuary command center for some of the Islamist group's operations targeting Israel and are using tunnels to move in and out of the complex.[15] A Palestinian journalist reported for Libération that just a few meters from the emergency room a section was being used by Hamas as offices.[16] This report was removed by Liberation at the journalist's request for unknown reasons. [17]
Reporting from the Gaza hospital to the Finnish Helsingin Sanomat Aishi Zidan reported that a rocket was fired in the middle of the night from a parking lot at the hospital.[18]
During Operation Protective Edge, Wall Street Journal correspondent Nick Casey tweeted a photo of Hamas MP and media spokesperson Mushir Al Masri using the outside of Shifa hospital for media interviews, but then later deleted it.[19][20]
Apple was reportedly having serious problems with hardware coming into their data centres being tampered with.
You'd think that would have provided enough economic / reputational incentive for them to build their stuff here without requiring corporate welfare schemes.
Yes. It sounds to me also like "Computer manufacturer (Apple) will build servers for their own (Apple) computer installations. Like, wow man, that's awesome!"
Next time try to buy your stuff from a shop that allows returns with full refund (I'm assuming that is as normal in the EU as it is in the US). Then you would have simply returned the broken headphones and bought another pair; a pair that, hopefully, were not defective.
But electronic devices (radios, televisions,...) used to typically include detailed schematics so that they could be repaired by somebody other than the manufacturer.
I know it's hard for someone who has access only to epoxy-embedded devices to believe that, but it's true.

Anyway, if it took all night to transfer 500GB I'd check the syslog for drive errors and run diagnostics on them (both the source and the target).

I don't see the newsworthiness in this; it's been done before, just manually. The only advancement here is automating the process.

But then the city folks retire to Florida. This explains why Trump won the election.

I agree. But how does one know for certain if the TV really is not smart or if it's just playing dumb?
Yup.
