    You've never been there, have you? Somalia is full of government. Just because you don't recognize them as legitimate doesn't mean the people aren't governed. They have an excess of government. You might know them as warlords.

    Change .onion to .onion.to and you can access the sites without any need to install TOR.

    64 bit Windows still has the 32 bit bits in it. So, 32 bit will still run. 64 bit Linux usually only has the 64 bit bits within it, as default. So, of course Linux went default 64 bit first. It was easier.

    I don't think he much cares about your opinion, or applause, however. Still, you can easily get this information. They get a complete audit, every year. You don't even have to pay to see the results, they'll give them to you.

    Yeah... Nobody is paying the inheritance tax. Nobody.

    Well, if you're paying much of it, you were given poor advice. Avoiding taxes is perfectly legal. These same mechanisms are available to anyone, and aren't horribly expensive.

    Which side are you accusing of instigation? I seem to recall one side went armed to counter protest and punched some Nazis. I get it, Nazis suck. However, I'm not so sure they instigated anything, unless you want to say their protest was instigation. I'm pretty sure they're allowed to do that, even if they suck.

    I personally kill and process the vast majority of the meat that I eat. I eat a lot of meat, actually. This year, I'll even harvest a moose and a deer. They will be delicious.

    I'd suggest it is you who hasn't any understanding of the subject matter. I, on the other hand, have run a number of the models myself. Yup, you can download 'em and the data - it's not even all that hard. I'm used to modeling large data sets. I freely admit that I'm not a climate scientist - but I am a scientist, specifically, I'm a mathematician. I'm gonna guess I'm a bit more well versed than you, call it a hunch.

  15. I'm pretty damned sexy, if I do say so myself - and I do.

    I do own a couple of pairs of Doc Martins. I did once consider going to a KKK rally. (I'm part black and sobered up before going but not before cutting holes in a pillow case. My goal was to wait until they lit the cross and then take off my hood and yell, "Surprise!")

    Bigot is our natural state. Tolerance is learned, not innate. There have been numerous studies on prejudice. It's pretty much what we do, and probably a holdover from our tribal days. You are born with an automated distrust of different.

    I dunno...

    I am pretty content letting them speak, unless the make credible threats. I am even okay with letting them advocate violence. Ultimately, the choice to act resides with the individual.

    Once upon a time, this was considered a very leftist view. Speech you don't like is countered by speech you do like. It's even possible to be civil. Shitty people wilt in the light. Let them speak. Expose their speech. Let the world see how horrible they are.

    Political views don't make one a member of a protected class.

    I think a reasonable argument can be made that it should. However, legally, it does not.

    You can 'bribe' your way into any country, even with criminal convictions. You apply for a visa, ahead of time, and pay the applicable fees. Even murderers travel internationally, if they have the money. Depending on your past, they will just ask for more money.

    Umm... What is Donald Trump doing now?

    You do know he condemned the incident, and the racists, right?

    I do not really approve of him but you're seemingly confused, or being intentionally dishonest.
