Comment Does it run 90% or better of Windows programs? (Score 1) 62

If not, then it's going to remain a niche thing like the HUNDREDS of active linux distros.

Don't get me wrong, for certain things, particularly things that have a person of high computer-literacy to maintain it, some linux is probably great.

OTOH most people and businesses want their computers to serve as tools, not necessarily their "hobby" to constantly futz with. They don't really give much of a shit how much of their meaningless daily work is hoovered up by MS.

Pesky facts.
Maybe try #followthescience?

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/i...
"Just a small percentage of the hundreds of thousands of migrants processed by the U.S. this year have received COVID-19 vaccinations while in federal custody, and half of them are unaccompanied children" - a few hundred k out of 1.6 million over the reported span

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/a...
"The RIM community has (statistically significantly) lower vaccination coverage when compared to those born in the US."

(Japan) https://www.sciencedirect.com/...

https://www.thegazette.com/gov... This one tries hard to disprove it, the best they can get is "While vaccination rates appear to be low among migrants and asylum-seekers, data shows few are actually crossing the border and making their way into the United States" - in 2021, which would suggest that the tidal fucking wave of immigrants in the later Biden 'open border' phase were actually a big issue because then they very much WERE 'making their way into the US'.

Ah syntax is so hard for leftists.

Justification doesn't imply constraint, duh?

(The need for a militia is important so) the right to have guns shall not be limited.

Nothing in there implies that guns are limited to official militias, not even slightly.
If you STILL insist on your dumbass interpretation, fine: every adult male in the US is the militia, by law.:
US Code Sec 246:
The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard.
(b) The classes of the militia areâ"
(1) the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and
(2) the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia.

So even if your ridiculous interpretation is correct, all males in the US under 45 are "the militia" so if gun ownership is 'restricted' to the militia, that's every man under 45. Satisfied?

You think $70million for some meeting rooms is reasonable? Can I sell you a bridge?
It was actually a HALF $BILLION capital campaign.

In fact that campaign was for both the student center AND a new 'training center' (not a stadium, but close) and the training center was 2x the cost, about 1.5x the size.

I *also* think that was ridiculous.

(the student center is directly SW)
