Comment Re:The Vegas Store Too (Score 1) 240

Yea, its nothing like it used to be. Used to be in line for 30 minutes sometimes waiting to check out and they would have 10-15 registers open at that time too. They don't even have motherboards or CPU's at the frys here anymore... I have seen a lot of "frys is dying" articles the last 6 months or so. And frys keeps responding with "were changing product models" Trying to go to consignment like Walmart and Home Depot do. But I think they may have shot their self in the foot with this one. Will be a sad day when it closes. They don't even have contact cleaner anymore... Or molex connectors I found out last week.

Only a small section of a gun is actually considered the "gun" by law. That is what makes it so easy to acquire and build yourself a "ghost gun" as the media likes to refer to it as. So, me being a felon can possess all the pieces needed to make it including the 80% lower, and the tools to make it. But if I haven't made the "gun" portion yet it is 100% legal for me to have and even show to a cop. Sure, might not be a smart thing to do as they would probably start watching me after I showed it to them. But I would still be a free man.

I stand corrected on your position of free speech. The rest of my comment still stands. YT runs ads on all videos(I think, I block ads and scripts so I wouldn't know anymore) they choose to give a portion of that to people who meet certain criteria. But that doesn't mean they owe everybody who uploads a video to their service. And if for some reason your video gets demonetized does not mean they are stealing from you. I do agree they should be more open about how their system works. I however would never consider it a job or career and try to depend on a huge corporation you have no contract with for your sole income. My opinion is, these people are stupid and should have been prepared for this. This is google we're talking about. "do all teh evils" or something is their motto.

Normally by trying to explain why their idea is a bad idea. And then conversation with them about why you think it is a stupid idea. But forcing your opinion on someone who doesn't agree with it is how we get political landscapes we have now. I.E. Trump, AOC, Polosi, and so on. But with so many people trying to dehumanize people they don't agree with does nothing to help the situation, in fact normally does the opposite of what you want. It causes people to disregard what you have to say as when there is no conversation only yelling and not listening to the other person no ideas get exchanged. Our country was founded on the exchange of ideas, reason, and understanding. Seems we have lost all three of those in recent years.
