The more they walk, the lower their carbon footprint.

Texas doesn't need Russia's help. It would be just fine.

That's a stupid analogy. It only makes sense if you know that the car will jump the sidewalk and choose to be there anyhow.

When you sign up for a semester/quarter of college, you see the costs ahead of time. You are buying a product, not a victim of happenstance.

It was their choice to take on so much debt.

Never mind, missed seeing you refer to it. A new MB is in the cards either way. May as well accept that.

What about Threadripper?

Whenever you receive a call from one of these scammers do what you can to talk to a live person. This is what costs them money. When I get a robo-call telling me about pack pain medication or having an import message from my credit card company, I always press whatever button I need to push to seem interested and speak with a representative. Then I keep that person on the phone for as long as possible until they give up and hang up on me.

If everyone did this, the overhead of these bastards would be too high to keep calling people. At worse, it would make them limit their calls to known suckers.

If PP charged lower merchant fees, they might. But they don't. So they haven't.

Guess they should have realized they were pricing themselves out of the market earlier.

Except for a lack of TRIM support, and a few too many quriky bugs from the still rapidly changing code base.

Thanks for proving my point. By you speaking more, you proved how irrational and infeasible your position is. Maybe not to yourself, but to those reading this discussion.

Ideas want to be free. Using force to quash them serves only to make them more attractive. Showing their foolishness, like what was done to the KKK, is far more effective.

I do.
And I'm a firm believer that the cure to hate or other bad speech is more speech, not less.

Speaking of hysterical...look at the protestors.

And who do you propose do the work to support said software? The PHP folk 'only' support the last three major versions. Which will be 7.1, 7.2, and 7.3 come December. Support for 5.6 had already been extended for an extra year.
