The people who elected a 34-time felon who also instigated a violent mob into attempting to overturn the previous (lawful) election have some nerve lecturing anybody on "following the law".

Obtaining citizenship has never been a requirement of anyone living in the country. Their only obligation is maintaining legal status, whether that is on a temporary or permanent basis.
What a ridiculous comparison.
Spoon-fed by the algorithm. I looked over my dad's shoulder at some of the posts he was looking at and just shook my head.
Fark stopped being fun when some loon tried to get me fired.
It didn't work, by the way.
Same reasons that required Jimmy Carter to sell his peanut farm.
And the "meritocracy" people claim this is in pursuit of more educational opportunities for American students without a molecule of irony.

"Nobody should ever need more than 640k of RAM."
Once everyone found it easier to just add more memory, the idea of efficiency started to go away... knowing the more efficient way to divide by 2, knowing how to avoid unnecessary program pointer jumps (if the first character of the string does not match, why run strncmp() for when you have a large data set)... these are things taught by experience. One of the best efficiency teachers would be to write for an embedded system with very limited memory. You learn very quickly about memory management and operational efficiency.
At least those of us who grew up with "The Six Million Dollar Man"... Death Probe

Yeah, all kinds of options for consumer electronics that aren't made in China.
