Seeing as 96 percent of google search results about Trump come from liberal media outlets
You may wish to rethink you naive view of this.
If you apply some critical thinking then the results make sense. You have most of the entire English literate world using Google, not just the US. Very few outside the US think US conservative media outlets are reputable and therefore avoid them. Google ranking is a convoluted feedback loop so you inevitably are going to end up with results people look at which aren't US conservative media outlets.
Built in 2002, the turbine had been out of commission since May last year after being struck by lightning...
... when winds reach a certain speed, turbines are shut down to prevent the blades suffering any damage. When wind speeds reach a critical level for a turbine, its blades can be twisted, or “feathered,” to reduce the chances of them being caught by the wind.
Seems like it wouldn't have been broken if it had been functioning properly. Gotta maintain.
Are you telling me that struggles with climate change, scarcity of natural resources and so on will just vanish into thin air by embracing Socialism or perhaps a Fascist dictatorship, or Communist rule? These issues somehow ONLY cause problems for people living in Capitalist systems?
I think what they are suggesting is that unregulated/ill regulated capitalism is a serious problem because it doesn't act in the best interest of the people. However, socialism is intended to be directed to benefit society.
Do note, fascist dictatorships are not mutually exclusive to capitalistic economies and democracies are not mutually exclusive to social economies.
The majority of innovations in technology that will help the whole planet transition to cleaner forms of energy, and possibly even mitigate some of the climate change issues are being developed in Capitalist America.
I agree. However, the reason for this isn't because "capitalism will solve all the problems!" Instead, it's because a tax will eventually get applied to pollution output and thus there will be an economic incentive to pollute less. Until we use regulation to incentivize reducing and removing pollution from the environment, capitalism will continue to plunder the environment.
Regulation and taxation is the solution, not the problem.
If the American Capitalist system fails, it won't be for any of these reasons. It'll simply be due to our leaders constantly increasing the levels of our national debt, in efforts to extend and expand the role of central government into all sorts of areas it was never originally intended to get that involved with.
It would be more accurate to say it will be due to massively regressive taxation and the ever growing military industrial complex.
The nation only generates so much wealth each year, and it's a recipe for disaster to keep spending more than what's sustainable.
Agreed. If you are going to spend more money than you have then you need to raise taxes. The magical thinking that you can cut taxes and spend more is just absurdism.
It was a mass shooting, so why was it put in quotes? Seems rather disrespectful to me, like someone saying, "so you were in a 'mass shooting' and you're a 'victim'? Sure you were."
I've always preferred Intel motherboards (when they made them) and network cards over the competition because their parts always had good documentation and software support.
I don't know about motherboards but I do know that the reason for their well supported network cards is because of Linux. The internet is mostly Linux servers and servers are their most lucrative market, so ensuring it's well supported is necessary.
maybe in some big sense they've been a bad economic actor
This is similar to contracts that detail that they need to support Microsoft's software's proprietary protocols without actually saying it should be a Windows server. Sure, an alternative is technically possible but it doesn't exist. It's pretty shit but it just means that's they have no interest in changing their operations.
Yes, it's bullshit but it's old bullshit that's been going on for decades.
They can't. Trump's built a system where going against him equates with going against conservative values in general. Any politician that doesn't agree with him even slightly is "not on the team" and loses. Conservatives are all-in on Trump. Trump is conservatism in America.
You seem to misunderstand what duty means. They swore an oath and now they are failing to uphold it.
Just because something will destroy you politically doesn't mean you should refuse to execute your responsibilities.
It looks as though you have someone who is completely out of control as president of your country.
That seems like accurate description of the situation. Though upon closer inspection, we also have a chickenshit congressional majority who refuses to do their duty to keep the president in check.
Intel has been a bad actor since the day it got in the x86 business. I think you need to look at this history of Intel because anticompetitive behavior has and always will be their modus operandi. AMD could have locked Intel out the x86_64 market by refusing to license AMD64 instruction set but they chose fair competition over splitting the market.
AMD acts in it's own interest but Intel acts exclusively it's own interest, the rest of the world be damned.
If he were serious about any of this then he would be telling us how they are going to boost NASA's budget. However, after increasing expenditures (a massive military budget expansion) and undercutting revenue (cutting taxes on corporations and the rich), the nation is running up a massive deficit.
What this all means is that this is just nice flowery talk and they are going to leave a financial train wreck for Democrats to clean up (again).
The reason they did this is because it slows performance to what I would call a painful crawl. I would post the benchmarks to quantify and prove it but it's not allowed.
Facebook is basically trying to define truth by using user input. Obviously this can be manipulated but I think by adding their own input to week out untrustworthy users, they just might be able to pull it off. There are a lot of variables that can be factored in to deem someone trustworthy but many factors can also be gamed. However, with additional input on who is a bad actor then it also discredits the users that trusted that user.
Russia is definitely going to fuck with this system but I don't think it will be a case of cat and mouse because there is a continuing basis for trustworthiness. It's just crazy enough to work.
The real news here is that Facebook may actually start doing some good instead of being a total parasite!
TDS happened. Trump won the election nearly 3:2 and it just broke the minds of the left.
Are you claiming that Microsoft is a left leaning organization? It's their findings that are in question here.
It's why you'll frequently see trolls talking about how President Trump is going to jail, despite the complete lack of evidence of any crime committed by him and his team.
Oh, I guess you haven't been reading about the Paul Manafort trial. Then again, maybe you didn't read that the president is refusing to even be interviewed and is prepared to fight a lawful subpoena.
TDS is a problem but it's a problem for those in the cult of personality who deny some very basic truths.

What is so complicated about "[s]hall not be infringed?"
Yeah! Why won't they allow me to yell "fire" in a crowded theater? /s
Every amendment has limitations.

Clearly you don't know the half of it but hey, I didn't either until more recently. here's a good video that explains their bad deeds that we know about.
Intel always seems less worse than so many other big technology companies.
They do have a great PR department but make no mistake, they are the greater evil.
Stop using JavaScript to do backend operations!

Not sure who this Bruce guy that everyone keep talking about but to assert my superiority, I demand to fight him in an epic battle for the ages! ;)

So MS of old is associated with bribes and corruption in your mind?
Absolutely. Corruption, anticompetitive behavior and shitty code are all MS has ever been good at.

Intel has a long history of shady and illegal business practices. AMD is a far better bet than Intel will ever be.
Hmm... sure seems like they haven't changed.

Back in 2015 and 2016 the DNC poo-poo'd FBI and other agencies that tried to alert them that they were the targets of concerted hacking efforts.
If that's the case then wouldn't you say it's a good thing that they have learned from their mistakes?
New sub, who dis?
;)
Who knew that Winnie the Pooh was so dirty and unrighteous.
Fuck Xi Jinping, fuck him up his stupid cartoon bear ass. (we both know the internet has images of that)
