I've been using my Brother laser printer since 2004. 3 printer cartridges with toner in all that time. Does postscript 2 and 3. So what if it's only single color.

I've installed printers for friends and family who just had to have color printers. Each and every one was a pain in the ass. Each and every one only lasted 2 years because the ink dried up and destroyed the heads due to disuse.

Uranium ore is a world wide commodity. It's listed on commodity indexs and has a price of $25 a pound. You could buy a few pounds yourself if you wanted to. Way down from the $50 a pound it was when that business was sold to the Russian concern. They took a big financial hit on that one. The US hasn't really lost access to Uranium ore and the business that the Russian concern bought took a HUGE financial hit. What's not to like.

What good is fact checking when you get people who BELIEVE something and no amount of factual information can dislodge that belief.
Willful ignorance is what it is called. Have you ever laid out all the facts and evidence of irrefutable proof on some subject to someone and heard 'I don't believe that and nothing is going to change my mind' in response. Fact checking is useless to those who could care less about facts, truth and reality.

If you think a Republican majority congress is going to go along with any of that you had better STOP taking your meds.

Either that or she's looking for free food.

Perhaps that perception and or reality is based on the fact that they now use their gun before their brain? Incompetence exists at all levels of government and law enforcement. When the resultant outcome of contact with law enforcement is less justice and more death it's time for a reexamination of methods and the types of people involved.

Flamebait? Please. I gave this a big LOL.

If a port is open in the ports list and no one is there to service it can it still be hacked.

I agree that you should never plug in a new windows box directly you should also never EVER run any windows box without a router box in front of it. Even if you get the windows firewall configured before you plug it in it's still weak sauce compared to a physical firewall router box.

Bullcrap. I've built a few email servers and firewall boxes running Slackware. A few even have nine nines uptime. They are rock solid and damn near impenetrable. Your only argument is that they may not be great for cloud services and even that is debatable. Do you like the taste of foot?

I work the print communications production business. With todays prices for materials, labor and other intangibles the price to produce a modern paper back book is on the order of about 2 to 4 dollars depending on page count. The price to produce an e-book is mere pennies per sale of an individual downloaded book. E-books have turned out to be one of the biggest rip offs of the second decade of this century. These over priced e-books are a just a cash grab by publishers. It makes you wonder what portion of the price goes to the author and how much to the publishing house.

Your projector has it's light out.

That 300 to 400 Million must be just for the sanitary wipes to clean the keyboards of greasy finger prints and cheetos crumbs.

Big Box refers to the big boxy buildings that their stores are usually in.
