Actual attacks happened back in 2016. You know, before the election? So TWO administrations (that absolutely despise each other) both claim something happened and you say no?
Let's see...you're asking me if Hillary Clinton and Rex Tillerson are both capable of lying?
That's a tough one. I'll have to thi... YES YOU DUMB FUCK. I'M SAYING THIS STORY IS BULLSHIT.
I would like a show of hands: How many of you think this entire story is bullshit? I mean, complete and utter bollocks?
There is absolutely nothing checkable in this story except the fishy tale that "some doctors" and "others" have seen some "white matter" abnormalities. Do we know these people weren't all smoking bath salts or whatever the fuck it is these "State Department Personnel" do when they're in Cuba? With all the rum and salsa dancing and food, I'd probably be hospitalized after an extended stay in Cuba, too. Hell, one time I spent a week in New Orleans in the 80s for Mardi Gras, and I ended up on intravenous antibiotics and bed rest for a month. I didn't hear the State Department issuing any travel advisories about New Orleans and the elevated risk of venereal disease.
I'm literally trying to find one fact in this story, and then I saw this:
"Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said Wednesday he’s “convinced these were targeted attacks"
That consolidation happened years before anyone ever coined the term net neutrality.
Well, of course you numpty. There was no need for the term "Net Neutrality" until what had been the status quo was under attack from telecoms.
But the concept of "net neutrality" goes back to before there was even an internet. Since you seem to be uninformed on this issue, let me give you some information, with citations you can follow if you want to learn more about this matter in-depth.
Keeping NN now will result in network competition? The same competition that worked so well in the past?
It actually did work well in the past. I can remember when there were pages of ISPs to choose from. Now, you're extremely lucky if you have access to two. Net Neutrality has been under attack for well over a decade, eroding the internet.
Discernment of the truth is something that can be learned even at your advanced age. Don't give up and just accept that "both sides do it nobody can know what's real".
I'm guessing the majority of these mothers with this problem are in the two most populous, and coincidentally most polluted of countries....China and India?
Well, thank goodness polluted air doesn't cross international borders.
You might need to buy a newer Roku....I saw those type problems you described back on an older Roku 3 model.
I have a Roku 4 HD. All the other video apps work fine. What's wrong with Amazon. Also, it's not the hardware's problem that Amazon doesn't retain my subtitle settings from episode to episode in the same show.
But I will try resetting my Roku again to see if I can get it performing better. Since yesterday, it no longer shows any of the thumbnails in the Amazon Prime app.
I have a Chromecast, and I have Amazon prime. But I never actually watch anything on Prime Video because their damn app won't cast to the Chromecast.
Oh man, don't get me started on the Amazon Prime Video app. I use a Roku, and the app for Amazon Prime Video is one of the worst interfaces I have ever seen for any application on any platform. It doesn't respond to most keypresses, the pause and fast forward are broken, it crashes the Roku at least once a week and you have to set subtitles separately for each episode of a show you watch. Further, if you press the key to select subtitles, or rewind, it takes the app about 10-15 seconds (I'm not kidding) to respond. The Netflix app, and the other video apps I have tried, do not have this problem.
Maybe it's just an effort to get people to buy it's own dongle, but you would think Amazon would be better off pulling its application off the Roku platform than letting this represent their company. Even if I wanted to buy a Fire, I have no reason to believe the Amazon Prime Video app runs any better on that device.
I haven't yet heard of any major proven problems with GMO
If Monsanto is willing to go to such shady lengths to have researchers say good things about their products, are you surprised that you haven't heard of any proven problems?
Just remember how far the tobacco industry was willing to go to make people think their poison was safe.
This is just the tip of the iceberg. Forbes just fired its science writer for having Monsanto ghost-write his pro-GMO articles for him. The scumbag is also a "researcher" at Stanford who has published scientific articles about how safe GMOs are.
I agree. Jesus Christ tells us that toys and other possessions hinder us in receiving His salvation.
When Jesus was a baby, the Magi brought him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. I didn't see anything in the bible about the holy family giving them back..
Growing up we had part of a Slinky. But I straightened it.
You must have come from a wealthy family. All we had was a rock and a stick, and I had to wait until my older sister got dysentery and died before I could play with them.
and those that tend to invest (how many multi-millionaires do you know that don't have investments and 401Ks?) are overwhelmingly affected by the estate tax.
My friend, you have bought into a huge lie. Do you have any idea how many people in the US will be affected by the estate tax vs. how many millionaires there are? Let me tell you:
Of the 2.7 million people who are expected to die in the US this year, only 5200 were probably going to pay any estate tax at all.
Of the 15.3 million millionaires in the US (according to a 2017 report by Credit Suisse), only 5200 would be looking at estate tax. Assuming a 1% annual death rate, that means that of the 153,000 millionaires that will die in 2017, only about 3% would have been affected by the estate tax. Further, that means that out of 350,000,000 Americans, about 0.001% will be affected by the estate tax. There are a lot more than 0.001% of American people who invest. In fact, well over 50% of Americans invest in either the stock market or real estate. If you add the people who invest in small business, that number goes even higher.
So, your statement,
"and those that tend to invest (how many multi-millionaires do you know that don't have investments and 401Ks?) are overwhelmingly affected by the estate tax."
Is utter horseshit.
If you need citations for any of the figures I've used here, let me know and I'll gladly oblige.

What evidence are you talking about? Which medical professionals?

I will expect you to read this before replying. Go on, I'm waiting.

China and the US don't share an international border.
No problem then.

And "they" only care about children when they're not being molested by Republican candidates for the US Senate.
Reproductive choice isn't about fetuses, it's about women. And Republicans only care about women when they're not being grabbed by the pussy.
Well, thank goodness polluted air doesn't cross international borders.
I think you meant, "Moore victims are coming forward."
Don't be so mad. Life is too short.
I like how you think.
What can I say? I am a simple man. But at least I was able to figure out how to get a Slashdot account.
I am 100% behind Quentin Tarantino directing Star Trek if it means Samuel L. Jackson will be playing the captain of the Enterprise with a jheri curl.

Oh yes. I've read many articles in Forbes telling me so.
