That's brilliant! Maybe we could have a thing so when you get a driver's license, you have to sign a form agreeing not to commit a violent crime? That would solve the crime problem! They're geniuses!!
Of course, we'd then be very suspicious of people who don't drive... but at least they couldn't flee the scene of the crime quickly.
Not true.... ever hear of a getaway driver... there is a glitch in the matix....
Yes, they are. The reason why is because it's easier to research and select components for computer systems on their web site.
They have, for the most part, the best filter for finding CPUs, motherboards, cases, RAM, drives, etc. Before Newegg, it used to mean visiting manufacturer's web sites for product specifications just to make sure that, for example, the CPU you selected has the right socket for the motherboard.
Granted, I will then take the list and check out the price on Amazon, etc. All things being equal, I will order from Amazon because of the ease of the return policy. Sometime I'll find the item that I want on sale at Newegg and I'll order from them. Also, there are items that Newegg stocks that you just can't find on Amazon.
there are issues in MA, but no more than other State.
MA never released the autopsy report on Mary Jo Kopechne. All other autopsy reports in the state are public record. MA is as crooked today as it was when Joe Kennedy was first greasing palms to get his boys into the congress.
According to Wikipedia: "Massachusetts officials pressed for weeks to have Kopechne's body exhumed for an autopsy, but in December 1969 a Pennsylvania judge sided with the parents' request not to disturb her burial site."
From another article: "Within hours of Kopechne's death, a Kennedy aide named Dun Gifford flew a chartered plane into Edgartown (the Martha's Vineyard town of which Chappaquiddick is a part), with orders to get the body off the island. Before Massachusetts officials had even decided whether to perform an autopsy to settle the cause of death, Kopechne's remains were in Pennsylvania -- beyond the state's jurisdiction." http://www.jeffjacoby.com/3007...
From another article, it appears that the local medical examiner ruled it a drowning and released the body before doing an autopsy.
So, what autopsy? All of the info that I can find indicates that there wasn't one and that the body was in the jurisdiction of Pennsylvania before the full facts of the case were known. So, wouldn't it make more sense to claim that Pennsylvania was corrupt? Also, I would think that moving a body across state lines would fall into federal jurisdiction. But I could be wrong here.
You obviously don't read very well. Nothing in what I said attempts to absolve robinhood of wrongdoing whatsoever. I'm sure they're guilty of bending people over in countless ways.
As far as, "show us why you think Massachusetts is corrupt"....just LOL. Three speakers of the house in a row in prison, and that's just the tip of a very big iceberg.
This is misleading at best... only one went to jail on corruption charges and that was over 10 years ago. The other two were charged with false testimony and tax evasion. This isn't acceptable in any light but it's not exactly the deep corruption picture that you're painting.
DiMasi, 65, was convicted by a federal jury June 15 on charges of conspiracy, extortion and theft of honest services by fraud as part of a kickback scheme. Finneran pleaded guilty in 2007 to a federal obstruction of justice charge for giving false testimony in a 2003 lawsuit over a legislative redistricting plan that diluted the clout of minority voters. Charles Flaherty, was forced from office after pleading guilty to a federal felony tax charge. Neither Finneran nor Flaherty served prison time.
So, yeah, there are issues in MA, but no more than other State.
There are MANY ground connections in small aircraft let alone airliners. (Retired avionics troop, engine mech and fighter crew chief here.)
Since as usual on Dicedot the parent article was for tech illiterates it didn't explain anything but is heavy on filler. (Rivets ARE "fasteners" BTW.) The fix is probably adding a short, simple ground cable worth only a few dollars even at aircraft markups. If new Barry-style mounts were used (for example) a popular grounding point to bypass the non-conductive rubber biscuit is one of the fasteners holding the airframe side to the airframe.
"Grounding" is merely not flying the affected birds until a tech receives the repair kit or standard part(s) then installs them. Hassle level depends on adjacent obstacles.
It sounds like the rivets, likely aluminum, provided the electrical grounding that the unit needed. The new fasteners likely used a different material that was less conductive, isolating the unit from the grounding that the airframe provides. It does sound like the fix is to provide proper grounding, either using a ground wire, as you mention, or perhaps a fastener that has better conductivity.
I guess that I am in the minority. I loved the Harmony remotes.
Programming required a little bit of effort but got better over the years. Once set up, it replaced 4 to 5 other remotes.
I even setup a couple up for my parents. They love having just one remote instead of having to use 3 or 4 and don't miss having to search for the right one.
Granted, my experience has been with the higher-end remotes, the Harmony One, Ultimate, Elite, etc. and with more popular A/V components.
Man our species is hopeless, the last 23+ years the entire game industry and the whole of silicon valley tech companies have been over the moon at how stupid and computer illiterate most people are beginning with mmo's in the late 90's with ulima online and everquest.
Um... maybe lay off of the drugs a bit before posting. You response has a jumble of keywords in sentences that make no coherent point or thought. Reminds me of this... https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

but if it's "good enough" to last a meaningful period of time and bring value to people during said meaningful time
Its true that the token will live a "meaningful period of time" because its stored as part of the blockchain. However, the content itself is not stored as part of the blockchain, it's stored on third party servers selected by the creator. The point is that the content is at a much greater risk of destruction than a physical object and the owner has no control over the measures taken to mitigate this risk. At least with a physical object, you can put it in a fireproof, waterproof safe, for example.
You're part of the problem too. You have two choices when confronted with a significant opposing political force. You can compromise or you can fight. The decision to ignore, dehumanize and/or insult is a decision to fight.
These people will be coming with firearms, not internet quips.
But how do you compromise with a group of people who are basing their opinions on complete and utter lies and are only willing to accept facts that supports their "cause"?
For example, lets say that an election commission was held to investigate the voting system. It finds that there was no fraud, same as all of the audits. Or maybe it finds individual cases, but not enough to change the outcome. Do you really think that that would satisfy them? Any outcome other than what they "feel is true" would become another conspiracy theory and another establishment lie.
Like it or not, these people are evolving into terrorists. And there is a reason why the US, and other countries, do not negotiate with terrorists.
The previous 45 Presidents don't seem to have had a problem reaching out without social media.
The first 28 presidents were never broadcast by radio and the first 32 presidents never addressed the public via television. Times change.
While I strongly disagree with what the president has done with his bully pulpit in the months following the election, I also don't feel it's the job of private business to censor the president. That is the job of the judicial and legislative branch of government. I guess we are living in a corporatocracy after all.
If companies are going to decide what is acceptable on their platforms then they should lose all 230 protections.
To an extent, I agree. However, I don't think that the Founding Fathers envisioned a time when there would be mass media that can reach millions of people almost immediately and where a "beloved leader" can override and overwhelm the checks and balances. In their day, there was time for reflection. Today, everything is reactionary and instantaneous.
Sure, its not wearing things that dont work that is the problem.
I guess it depends what your definition of 'work' is. Will it work to slow or stop the pandemic? No. Will it work to get more people to be as much of a sheep as you are? Yes.
Actually, Yes, it does. Does it stop you from getting the virus? No. Does it help prevent you from spreading it? Yes.
At the very least, wearing a mask reduces the amount of virus load and the distance that it can travel. So when you are near others, it does help protect them from getting it. Its all about protecting your neighbors and friends. But "freedom" seems to be more important to some people than actually caring about others.
if you are reading or watching something that tells you that masks don't work, listen to the language that is used very closely. The vast majority focus on whether masks protect YOU from the virus. They do this because they know that there is overwhelming evidence showing that it protects you from spreading it to others. But that doesn't fit into their narrative, so they ignore that part.
Two words... Bird droppings....
Epileptics are now SJWs. Do I get to call you an SJW for your apparent learning disability?
The millions or so fucks donning their armor and swords and gearing up for war about this... without being asked... are not epileptics... but they are definitely SJW's
Meanwhile, blacks still know how to get a drivers license regardless of the millions of fucks that donned their armor saying that they didnt because racism is hard
The issue of Voter ID laws requiring a drivers license isn't whether someone knows how to get a drivers license, the issue is not everyone can get a drivers license for various reasons (i.e. medical, lack of discretionary funding, etc) and that they typically cost more and require more investment (drivers training, etc.) than another form of government ID would. In other words, it's a way to prevent poor people from voting. The side effect (possibly deliberate) is that it affects certain races more than others due to demographics.
If you're going to require ID to register to vote and you are truly only concerned about voter fraud, then there should be a free ID option. Otherwise you end up disenfranchising specific groups. And it's quite telling that most Voter ID laws do not offer a free ID option.
I was going to play him the world's saddest song on the world's smallest violin but he might mistake it for a public performance and try to sue me. Oh wait, I guess I'll play it after all.
The swamp is deep and murky and full of terrors my friend, so I wouldn't start playing just yet....
