The number of times the press uses twitter to justify whatever outage it wants to peruse is amazing especially after all the evidence of fake bots used by many social groups to amplify their own outrage.
Sorry but the Clinton era helped usher in a new acceptance of sexual infidelity. And after hearing the whole thing trivialized for the next 15 years, it's hard to muster up the outrage for infidelity.
For 15 years we were told that we should understand why a husband would cover up an affair and use all his means to do so. It's funny now that the Clinton's don't matter, you are finally holding him accountable, but honestly, it's too late. Moral apathy is contagious.
If you want to go the partisan route, only one party has impeached their own president (twice).
In all the news about Hillary Clinton's email servers, I never saw ANYTHING that would indicate Hillary Clinton has any technical knowledge.
Maybe it's because how flippant she was about it? "Wipe the server" "You mean with a cloth?"
Maybe it's because she deleted so many emails before granting access to the FBI?
Maybe it's because she was head of the Department of State and should have asked somebody if she honestly had no technical knowledge?
Maybe it's because she has almost no credibility and the only ones voting for her were doing it of party reasons, anti-trump reasons, or for gender reasons>
Crap - Do I sue Metal Gear for not proving an update to continue the game's support for newer OSs, NVidia for providing an update that removed support, or Steam for providing an update that removed support?
Or can I sue all 3 and make millions from this game I bought in 1998?
"Please refund me the money I paid 15 years ago for a game I can no longer play."
If this type of lawsuit was possible, all the multiple player games ever made would still have servers online. (And really, that would be a more interesting lawsuit than expecting steam to branch 2 or 3 versions of their window's client.)
By your logic, MS would just need to do an occasional trivial patch to XP to force their competitor to keep supporting an OS they themselves abandoned.
, the solution is progressive property taxes that tax really expensive real estate and boat and planes and super rich play toys, but only to the extent of cost recovery and no more.
The problem for the non-rich is it starts with the rich and then works it way to everyone else.
The city has a ton of power in these matters. My house is in worse shape than it was 5 years ago when I bought it but according to San Antonio, it is worth nearly double what it was worth when I bought it. My escrow is more than my mortgage (and that's with getting the Homestead reduction Texas offer to first time home owners.)
It's crazy. The city is going to out price me out of a home.
The salaries of all my peers was $150,000+ but the food and prices at Target were suitable for areas with economies closer to $40,000. That means that the people shopping at the stores should be paying more and the stores should be paying their employees more. Instead, they were very definitely minimum wage workers.
That means that the pay gap is INSANE!!! Even with $15 an hour minimum wage, the property values are so ridiculously high that people have to spend an hour commuting or live in squalor to make ends meet. $30,000 a year is simply not enough to survive in Seattle given the relatively small size of the city and the relatively high demand for real estate.
Then let them leave and don't bitch when another city offers them the same tax breaks that Seattle is trying to take away. Instead just be happy they will drain another city.
I, for one, would welcome Amazon to San Antonio as long as they don't get voting rights - we are blue enough already. Frustrating thing is they will come here, push for it to be more "socially responsible" like Seattle then bitch when a tax actually effects them
as well as absorbed the nuances of American highway-number names (eg, "I-595" = "I five-ninety-five", "405 Freeway" = "Four-oh-five Freeway", "State road 836" = "state road eight-thirty-six",
Just curious, in Britain would it be "I-four hundred and five"?
Coming from a family of mathematicians and engineers (of which I am not yet pretend to understand the math jokes they make), I understand the annoyance of hearing O instead of zero. Would "405 Freeway" be "four-zero-five freeway" or ""four hundred and five freeway"?
The more power you give government to regulate business, the more business will us that power to further itself.
Now, regulations actually help larger corporations because they help keep the cost of maintaining or starting a business to high for smaller companies or start ups.
The downside about the consumer protections laws in the EU is the seller is probably liable for the 2nd/3rd hand stuff they sell even if they claim it possibly defective.

Which part? It died in America or it's used by America?
It feels like that nowadays doesn't it?

Cable news?
And some people (not me) enjoy channel surfing.
I thought the BCE/CE movement died out decades ago. Interesting to know it's still ongoing.
You forgot to click the "Anonymous Coward" button.

It boggles my mind how liberals are ok with this but are outraged by a possibly illegal payment to a woman Trump allegedly had sex with.

I'd love to see the request.

I remember that too. I was one of those naysayers. Now I can't stand looking at stuff in sd.
In all fairness to myself, the TV I had back then didn't do much to help the case for HD

How much do you pay your employees?
It was an interesting read. I feel that neither one of our posts meet the criteria in that article.

It doesn't count as subsisting red states when they are able to write off their taxes on their taxes (nice scam, btw).
I guess the fact that most new technologies are more efficient and environmentally friendly is lost on you.

So if Trump does something to hurt Russia, it's a smokescreen and if he does something to help Russia it's proof of collusion?

That is cool. I'm going to look into that.
The downside about the consumer protections laws in the EU is the seller is probably liable for the 2nd/3rd hand stuff they sell even if they claim it possibly defective.
So you would pay more for refurbished products than new ones?
That in the US.
In the EU there is to much risk involved for amazon due to all the consumer protection laws in place.
It's cheaper to destroy the item then risk selling it.
No, I want Amazon to accept the consequences of their business model
Why do you think there should be a consequence for their business model?
How much of the internet do you want to go away? Just the store part?
