My answer is E. All of the above. Twice over. Does that mean I always agree with the Democrats on everything? No, I certainly do not. Do I side with them over the GOP - absolutely. I should probably ask one of my neighbors as they are (were?) an adimant die hard Trump supporter... Though for the State I live in, I don't think it matters, the odds of it even turning slightly a shade of 'purple' splitting between GOP and democrats is basically zero.

Comment Re:Biking? (Score 1) 152

Yeah, recurring issues with drivers is a problem that states need to look at more seriously. One of my company offices is in the bay area, I know of a few cyclist there that have said how bad it can be at different times and places. It's unforunate that us cyclist basically have to "fight" to exist almost anywhere. Luckily for me, my state all the drivers are pretty reasonable, the worse problem I deal with sometimes is someone trying to make a right hand turn and sit in the bike lane to do it. Every time I see it, I get off of my bike, walk up to them and just stare at them for about 20 seconds.

Comment Rewrites of massive code bases... (Score 1) 338

Good bye Social Security. I'm not collecting it, but I'm going to say that pretty much EVERYONE knows at least 2 people that are collecting... I hope they aren't dependent on it. Because when this is "done", I'm pretty sure it will not work for at least several months, which will get the administration an excuse to say "nope, not fixing broken system that we broke, good bye social security payments!" then promptly reallocate the funds to their own pockets.

Comment Crypto value (Score 1) 170

Two questions because when it comes to crypto I'm not really that well informed. 1- What's actually backing the value of crypto currency anyways aside from general venture capital. 2 - US to crypto and vice versa, fine it's worth a lot. What about Euro to Crypto, or Yen to Crypto, or any other country backed currency?

Honestly no, I haven't. only thing I've done "recently" banking wise was setting up transfers from a brokerage account, and getting a mortgage loan about 5 years ago. Lots of paper work there on it's own, but as far as opening an account - No. I've ended up "switching banks" by "force" when certain banks left the region I was in, then bought out by a larger bank... which has made it easy for me because... all the transitions were easy and seamless, and never had to worry about transferring banks really.

I'm confused, I can understand why an investment company would need your social security number, so that it could be tied back to you for tax related purposes. I don't entirely agree with it but OK, fine. But Why would they need your driver's license information at all? If they are able to validate you are who you say you are based on your ID information, there's no need to Keep that set of record data long term.

Comment Controller issue... (Score 3, Insightful) 92

Sorry, but the controller is not going to matter. doesn't matter if it's a $10 used NES controller, or a $500 dollar specialized driving device. The Submersible Imploded at extreme Depths. If the Vehicle can't withstand the pressures, the controller isn't going to matter in the slightest.

This is correct. where I live up until about a year ago, My Only "viable" option was Comcast Xfinity. Now fortunately, in my area their service actually wasn't terrible from an uptime perspective. Then last year, this other company called Google signed contracts with the local cities, or some of them anyways, to build out Fiber networks. Pretty sure Comcast subscriptions locally as it's built out as just dropped like a rock.
