Forwardsfromgrandma is just a liberal circle-jerk that pokes fun at anyone who has an opinion that someone over the age of, oh, say 23 might have about politics or world affairs. While some of the memes are obvious trolls, I'd bet that the vast majority of them are serious. Which just goes to show how out of touch with reality the people who laugh about making the troll memes actually are.

As they say, if you're not a liberal when you're 20 years old then you have no heart.

If you're still a liberal when you're 40 years old, then you have no brain.

So, you work at a government contractor on the East Coast (VA/DC/MD anyone...nah no gov't contractors there). These type of workers start early AM, before most people are awake for the day. 7-8 AM start times are not unheard of. This would coincide with what? A 9-5 workday in UTC-0300 or UTC-0400 you say? No, can't be. The people writing the article really, truly meant the elite uber-hackers of Greenland and Nova Scotia.

Ha, are you really sure about that?

the "tactic" actually sounded pretty smart to me, and say what you will, the "older guy" definitely understood how to negotiate in the "real" world.

simple economics drives the explosion of tuition, and almost nothing else.

once the government started handing out cheap, plentiful money to students in the form of loans and grants, the universities have every incentive to capture it all, plus more from mom and dad, if possible.

I go.

It seems like many internet radio providers are dropping Shoutcast support, usually quietly/silently, and expecting you to use a proprietary app or DRM-based player to access their content. They may as well shoot themselves in the foot.

Dropping Shoutcast support today is akin to commercial radio stations dropping AM in favor of FM back in the 1960's (note: they didn't, some simulcasted but eventually dropped FM until it really took off in the late 70's/early 80's when the penetration of receivers reached critical mass).

Sure, there are players and radios that support newer formats, but every player and tons of applications support Shoutcast. Unless, and I know this is a huge stretch, the big media conglomerates don't want to compete on an open directory of stations that lets anyone with a computer and internet connection become a "broadcaster", and are trying to kill it off by removing their content from it?

Nah, couldn't possibly be that...

You're crazy.

Mozilla has just given the world governments very own honeypot a great boost in capacity. Why would that make them an enemy?

i've been running win10 on my primary dev desktop for months now and on an i3 laptop, and i can say, without a doubt, the best thing about it is the install.

i have yet to have to install a driver for anything, and everything "just works" right from the jump.

its a pretty amazing technical achievement, considering the size of the wintel environment.

instead of Wordpress, try a MVC framework and a Bootstrap 3-based theme has your jumping off point.

i currently use Laravel and BS3 themes from wrapbootstrap.com or, of course, themeforest.

you should find that with composer, you can easily install whatever modules you may need in Laravel, and the hand-coded aspect of the prebuilt BS3 themes makes integrating them pretty darn easy.

it works for me.

Ho-lee fuck. When will people ever stop with the goddamned "if you have nothing to hide" bullshit. Don't be ridiculous in the name of the "children" or "harassment", it's still just as disingenuous.

What a crock of shit.

Step 1. Create social media account under my enemy's name and bully people.
Step 2. Enemy takes the blame since they can't give up passwords to prove otherwise.
Step 3. Profit!

Actually figured out step 2 this time. That's real progress!

"Don't know it, sorry."

or

"Fuck You."

Unfortunately, the authority worship preached to our children in the public schools ensures neither of the correct answers will probably be given. The children of people smart enough to have taught their children this (doctors, lawyers, professors, etc.) don't have their children in the public institutionalization facilities, anyway.

that's great.

you must not be in your mid-40's.
