Has anybody looked into cloud berry to glacier or similar. https://www.cloudberrylab.com/...
I am not the OP but i do agree, largely. I would split it into two phenomenon:
1. At 15, it is much easier to be impressed. you have less experience of what the world has to offer. In my day (80s kid) there was a lot less choice so you watched and re-watched the same things until you loved them. You had a lot more free time to watch. And, importantly, you are selecting which groups you will be part of. Your media consumption both influences and is influenced by that but I feel teens latch onto cultural icons and make them really important to their emerging identity. While I still liked Ferris Bueller, as I started showing movies I remember loving to my kids, many of them were really pretty bad.
2. The other reason you remember the movies as being great is that pain has a short memory. You don't remember all the crap that was released and you either saw or managed to avoid. Same w/ the 19th century, not everybody was writing war and peace but the best things stand the test of time. Our consumption is only the best of the best of what was released in the past.
No, that's fair. They have every reason to organize and act against the placement of this pipeline due to our history.
I was noting that rather than the rhetoric against pipelines in general, we should be examining how to make our best method of fossil fuel transportation fit for purpose.
One more point on maintenance. Trucks at least, and likely trains, have to go through inspection several times a year. Wouldn't requiring that of pipelines be a more sensible solution than dismissing it out of hand?
Nothing is perfect but rail is objectively safer.

You suggest that there are pipeline leakages. There must be but surely this becomes an oversight/maintenance problem.
The oil still has to move from A -> B. Trains/Trucks have far more risk than pipelines.
If you want to abstain from usage, fine. But until you do, you need your fix to get to you.
It would be the height of hypocrisy to type on your plastic keyboard on your electric computer in your heated home and pretend to be against fossil fuels.
As much as I am not a fanboi, this was where Jobs was really good. Ramming through entrenched interests to get what he wanted. Apple forced the carriers not to bundle crapware and repackage the OS, a side effect of that is that they can push their updates promptly. Google didn't and the carriers still hold the keys to the devices, to our detriment.
I agree that the DNC is corrupt and badly in need of change. This is not the way to do it.
What is?
Elect local delegates, build a movement from the bottom up and change the rules. Don't try to switch out the top of the pyramid and pretend that will be effective.
There is no such person that could 'soundly beat him' because most people just vote party line with little more concern than the D or R. You can see this on both sides but primarily R has nominated somebody who stands against much of what everything the party has said for the last couple dozen years and yet, the vast majority of people, the media and the party machinery mostly just fell into line behind him.
The vendor is only half the battle (well, one third). Now that google is putting out monthly updates, even users of handset makers that push them along monthly (Samsung) don't usually get the updates. The carrier is also involved. So unless all three, google, Samsung and, say, vodafone, all move the patches along, there is going to be a huge lag in getting these devices patched. Sooner or later, somebody isgoing to take good advantage of this hole. I can only hope it doesn't hurt too bad.
It only makes sense b/c, really, we all wait with bated breath for the fantastic bloatware apps that _need_ to be installed to certify it for the provider's network.
I am not sure of the numbers but the prime costs in the UK jumped a LOT over the last year or two. Something like 49 to 99 GBP.
They added a bunch of video's, libraries and now music so there is some value but I wasn't looking for a bundle, i just wanted the expedited shipping.
I had a similar thing where I sold an item and the buyer didn't like it. I said fine, send me the item and I will refund but they just complained to paypal and got their money refunded while they still had the item. I had no recompense. Pissed me off enough to make me avoid paypal as much as possible for the last 15 years though.
Can anyone please tell me how to break single sign on on android?
It isn't really hard. sign out and click the link below sign on that says 'sign on as a different user'.
Why do I know? I have two accounts w/ the same username and different passwords that amazon wouldn't combine for me. somehow when my first kindle was bought it didn't go in under the same account. Real pita but I had bought a bunch of kindle books before I realized the problem and have ended up keeping the two accounts since. Wasn't a problem they combined single sign on on android but they fixed the problem shortly there after.
What kind of WTF in the user management allows two accounts w/ the same username is a mystery to me.
