The use of "politic" the way she used it predates the phrase "politically correct" by decades if not centuries.

Could you post a link to this keyboard (or even a part number searchable on newegg's site) so that I can see what happens when a newegg customer in NC tries to get one?
Did tribal Africa have plenty of food because some of them were selling others of them to slavers, or were they selling each other in spite of not needing to do it to ensure an adequate food supply?
Did you ever see Brooks as "Hawk"?
But somebody has to book the hookers or they won't know where and when to show up for work.
Of course if someone wants to book them for doing the work, that's a different problem.
That's unpossible. Most of us don't even read Slashdot.
Well, not the articles or summaries, anyway.
Yes computers and internet are important but let's not get ahead of ourselves. The most important engineering currently being done is still analog, like reusable rockets and fusion reactors. These rank slightly higher on the scale of importance to humanity than the guys making internet-connected refrigerators and targeted website ads.
Reminds me a few years ago when some dudes running websites voted "the internet" the most important invention in human history. It's as if they never heard of agriculture, or fire, or electricity, or indoor plumbing, or any number of things that are keeping these idiots alive.
I had a high school history teacher who said the most important invention in human history (or at least one of the most important ones) was soap, since it was so important in reducing the spread of infection and diseases.
Someone mod this guy up some more. It's certain that these coins belong to the guilty party, regardless of whether or not it's Ulbricht.
Guilty of what? Has it been proven in a trial of anyone that these bitcoins were received as payment for illegal items yet?
I can actually imagine the government being incompetent enough to try auctioning off dollar bills from a drug raid. It makes me laugh, but not quite as much as the thought of idiots bidding ten dollars for that dollar bill.
Maybe they think that dollar bill had soaked up $10 worth of cocaine or whatever from being stashed with the drugs.
I heard several years ago that there are basically no one hundred dollar bills in circulation for any length of time that do not have traces of cocaine.
You should give two bit coins. This would drive the auctionators crazy.
There wouldn't be an auction. The value of the two-bit coin is permanently pegged to one fourth of a dollar.
Duke isn't giving us contaminated water, that's "Freedom Juice".
...a story about a fictional character called Slenderman, of which/whom I had not previously heard, but apparently some of those (specifically those two 12 year old girls) who had heard of him think he's real and not fiction, and that they need to kill someone to go join up with him.
I do not work for Comcast or any other internet provider. Whether something is positive or negative is a point if view and I view government getting into businesses as generally a bad idea. I also see governments nationalizing existing businesses as a very bad idea.
But apparently you're just fine with the consumer getting charged as much as possible while receiving as little as possible.
You start talking about mints and all I'll be thinking of is trying to find the hole in the middle of your argument.
No, the hole is in the middle of the Lifesaver.
