"Cord cutting" will not overtake cable as long as the only way to get a reasonable price for internet is to "bundle" your service with pay TV. And it's only going to get a lot worse with all the big mergers that the corrupt Trump administration is handing out to corporations.
You can cut all the cords you want, but you're still going to be paying a cable bill, even if you only watch Netflix and Hulu. Two companies providing all the internet bandwidth and TV content will never be anything like "competition".
No, it didn't. It started with Trump's "zero tolerance" policy created early last month.
You may be confusing what's happening now with what happened when large groups of unaccompanied minors were presenting at the border in 2014. There were no children who were forcibly separated from their parents and put into concentration camps during the Obama administration.
Calling them that is an insult to every victim of the Holocaust. I'm old enough to have known dozens of survivors, and you are insulting them with that hyperbole.
This is my favorite new line of argument from MAGA chuds. It's the most cynical kind of virtue signaling.
But before you spout off defending the memory of people who were victims of the Holocaust, maybe we should ask a few Holocaust survivors what they think:
You do know that all the pictures that came out a few weeks back when the "#wherearethechildren" hashtag started up were taken during Obama's watch, right?
Those children were unaccompanied minors who had crossed the border, not children who had been taken from their families.
You might wish to read the page you linked to, or at least its summary, at the top of the page. The President has not announced any plan or intent to put nuclear weapons in space.
Dumbshit, there are 17 separate articles in the treaty (full text at the link I provided). It covers a hell of a lot more than just "nuclear weapons in space".
Please do me a favor, raymorris. If you're so unwilling to inform yourself as to the the most basic facts of an issue, please refrain from wasting my time in the future.
They're not keeping children in "concentration camps" on the southern border. Geeze, you people are self-parody.
They are absolutely keeping children in concentration camps.
First, maybe we should establish a definition of "concentration camp"" According to Merriam-Webster, a concentration camp is, "a camp where persons (such as prisoners of war, political prisoners, or refugees) are detained or confined"
Next, we should establish that Trump is indeed keeping children in such places [note: I purposely only include foreign news sources for this, so you can't claim some local political bias]
Further, since people who present at a port of entry requesting asylum have broken no US laws, the Trump Administration is separating children from parents who have done nothing wrong and holding them in concentration camps just to exert political pressure on his opponents.
Do you think anyone in his administration has mentioned to Trump that the United States is bound by a treaty, ratified in 1967, which specifically forbids militarization of space?
Treaty on Principles Governing the Activities of States in the Exploration and Use of Outer Space, Including the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies
I mean, I understand that he wants to do anything he can to distract us from the fact that his campaign manager is sitting in a jail cell, his personal attorney is spilling his guts and his administration is keeping children in concentration camps on our Southern border, but does he really think anyone but the most dedicated MAGA chud is going to think the SPACE FORCE is anything but the butt of future jokes?
That's simply untrue, I've seen him rail against Jews on more than one occasion.
Antisemitism is horrific and deplorable, but it is not racism. Nor is homophobia or islamophobia, which are equally execrable.
Maybe I just choose to see the best in people instead of the worst, because I have a heart as big as all outdoors. I'm all about love>hate and we're all brothers and sisters and seek to unite, not divide.
Also, Fuck Trump. I believe in love, but I still have some standards.
Which is why Trump received the Ellis Island Award [snopes.com], alongside fellow winners Rosa Parks and Muhamad Ali, in recognition of his outstanding example of patriotism, tolerance, brotherhood and diversity.
He's come a long way since 1986, hasn't he?
Oh, and you might have noticed that Anita Bryant and Hillary Clinton also won the same award, so that should tell you everything you need to know about that award.
And if you're judging people based on awards, you must have great respect for Barack Obama, who won a Nobel Peace Prize, alongside fellow winners Lech Walesa, Elie Wiesel and Nelson Mandela.
You are not the real APK. You're just a 4chan Breitbart incel pretending to be someone you're not. The real APK may be many things, but he is not a racist.
You'd be amazed at all the things Trump tells you that aren't true yet still somehow help him achieve his objectives.
He hasn't achieved a single objective that wasn't going to be achieved if he had not become president. Economy, foreign policy, unemployment. If you look at a graph, he's just continuing the trends from the Obama era.
Trump has made a career out of saying he has achieved things that he has not. And dopes like you are lapping it up because he's sufficiently racist to make you comfortable. A reckoning is coming, though.
Ask yourselves why North Korea and Russia are constantly made out to be this big threat
OK, first of all, it's not "North Korea" and "Russia" that are the threat, it's the regimes governing North Korea and Russia. I don't know any North Koreans, but all the Russian people I know are fine people. I have no problem with them.
1) Why the Kim regime is a threat: Kims regularly have their political enemies murdered (including family members) including one who was strapped to an anti-aircraft gun and vaporized.
2) Why the Putin regime is a threat: He regularly has his political enemies murdered, sometimes via terrorist attacks on Western countries. He also used state intelligence machinery to attack elections in the United States, the UK, and the Ukraine, and in the case of the US colluded with criminals to throw the 2016 presidential election to a mobster.
The lie that nuclear waste "has never harmed anyone in human history", comes from a industry lobbying group called, "The Center for Nuclear Science and Technology Information". It is pure horseshit.
There's your problem, right there. You mistakenly believe that the purpose of a college education is to prepare young people for the work force. It is not.
Also... Ardour [ardour.org] is good stuff. Digi keeps fucking their customers over, and fuck Windows, are you shitting me? If not a Mac DAW, then a Linux DAW or FreeBSD DAW is the obvious replacement... not Windows. Fail.
Music production on Linux is not ready for prime time. I keep hoping maybe someday, but it's just not there yet.

I'm well-known for seeking out the good in all people, but I understand your concern. I will continue to believe in the transforming power of love.

That's not what I was responding to. Here is the quote I was responding to:
Please don't try to make my statement somehow wrong by changing the context.
First, I was talking about Trump. Second, we know Trump has a high IQ because he tells us so.
You're so full of shit.

Being spanked by a porn star with a rolled up newspaper while his wife is home with a newborn baby is definitely a life goal of mine.
I'm curious. Do any of you know if President Trump has learned to code? And if so, in which language would he work?
Since he's considered by many to be the highest-IQ president ever, I assume this would have been an easy task for him.
It's 2018. We've broken through the "stupid enough" barrier.
