Ok but we're in 3 major wars and Trump only forced us into 1 of them. What exactly do you think happens when countries are at war? That's why they should be avoided.

Please tell us what you think about Biden supporting the Ukraine while we armed and funded their attacks that killed Russian children? Is Biden also a socialpath? That's a trick question. It's hard for anyone to believe that Biden was actually making any decisions for himself.

I don't understand what people think is happening when countries go to war. People die, including children. That's why you want to avoid it. We're in 3 of them and they didn't all just start with Trump.

How can they say that with a straight face? Removed physical controls because young people want things done quicker?

It takes way longer to perform a task using touch controls and navigating menus, and things like that, versus a dedicate button. These marketing people are morons.

White nationalist horseshit?

Wow. Tell me that you're retarded without telling me that you're retarded.

I'd argue that the Linux gaming experience is much worse. Apple, let's not even get into.

BTW it's an unmaintained and unsecure open source driver that's crashing, which was also abandoned and isn't maintained. So the problem is that all of these companies are using the same freebee driver that literally hacks into the system in order to operate, and now it no longer works.

Huh? It's an unsecure and unmaintained open-source driver that's causing the issue. The OS is running perfectly fine.

Are you suggesting that people should switch to Apple? Because saying that they should switch to Linux would be incredibly comical since a non-MS open-source driver is actually the problem here.

Actually, in the US legal system, two wrongs do make a right in many cases, including cases like this. That fact has even resulted in high dollar payouts to people.

If the courts decided that the boarder agents did not have the right to search his phone, then he cannot be charged with destroying evidence. "Evidence" obtained through a violation of someone's rights is inadmissible in court, meaning that his phone would not be admissible. Without the phone, there is no case.

100% this. Flock is no different than a Ring camera. So, if flock would require a warrant, then Ring should too even if the home-owner is willing to provide the data freely. It's the same thing.

So, would they also need a warrant for Ring camera video that a homeowner is willing to provide freely? And will they be stopped by the law from accepting video from a homeowner unless a warrant were signed too? Same thing, different company, right?

No. /end topic.

I've never had a display fail to operate without a forced driver. So what are you talking about? Are you saying that plugging a game console into the same display won't work because they can't install a driver?

Windows 10's updater had a very clear option for allowing installations for 3rd party devices or not. Windows 11, not so much. They have a section for optional updates, but no idea how those are flagged.

In addition to the civil lawsuit answer, there's also a legal different between having copyrighted material versus distributing it.

Right, and the end result will be the union itself getting paid more than the workers it represents. Members of the union will either get nothing or just a few bucks, paid by the union itself from its collection reserve (if it even has one). Not many unions force a company to pay you even when work isn't available, where a down-size is required.

Well, the lack of tax-payer funding has resulted in a reduced teaching staff in cities across the US. A city might not be able to afford more teachers, but it can probably afford a bunch of sex.. I mean teaching bots to supplement tutoring.

Keep in mind that they sell several configurations, and you don't necessarily need the expensive full-bodied bot for teaching.

Ok, but their salaries are based on taxes that people need to vote for. Everyone always votes against increasing taxes for higher teacher salaries. The problem is that everyone is already taxed incredibly high at the federal level, and everybody always votes "no" to raise taxes at the local level where the direct benefits are seen the most. 33% of my income goes into taxes already, so yeah, I'm voting "no" every time.

I wouldn't exactly call them poverty wages either. I'm in Ohio and teachers make 60-70k a year after they get some experience in. It's not great but it's still a middle class income.
