He lost me at "Power BI".

Ugh...what a POS.....it's the modern equivalent of MS Access....it gives people who can't code or design enough tool to create something they force others to use which causes time suck and damage along the way.

So what? What is the point you are attempting to make here?

To quit being a bunch of pussies....

These windows DO open, don't they?

I mean, there's always portable units you can use.

Please enough with the excuses....sit and swelter if that's what you want, but geez....get used to it, this isn't going away you know.

Fine...then sit there and swelter like it is the 1800's....I really do't give a fuck if people make excuses instead of solutions.

Slight warning....get used to it, this isn't going away you know....

I just checked, and it's 2:17AM in Seoul. It's 86F with 85% humidity! Heat index is currently at 103F, at fucking 2AM.

That's just a middling summer day in New Orleans.

Bump that humidity up a bit and then you get closer to common average days here in summer.

Mind you, my AC turns on basically end of April and usually is on till first part of November.

Thanks,, when I think 42 degrees my immediate reaction is, "I need a jacket or sweater, especially if the wind is blowing..."

Do these structures have windows? If so, you can hang window units on them, or at the very least have floor units and vent out the window.

AC does not necessarily mean Central AC systems....geez.

The US has tons of old homes without central AC that sill have AC with portable units, or window units, etc.

This is not rocket surgery.

So, do the Koreans believe in Air Conditioning, apparently unlike their European friends?

They claim it is a new show in order to avoid the equal time regulations whenever they put forth candidates, etc from one party......if not a news show, they have to give equal time to the opposing candidate/viewpoint.

Quick question.

Can anyone here with a straight face state they truly believe "The View" is a newscast?

It's easy...aside from statistically RARE genetic foul ups.....we have male and female. Easy peasy.

Simple biology.

Who gets to decide what's worthless?

Statistics do....

We track what jobs earn what...how many people get accepted in to what jobs on graduation....so, we only offer student loans to degrees that give the student the absolute highest chance of getting a good paying job, one what will allow them to pay off the loans in a reasonable manner.

From what I understand of the guy I'm not a fan and likely would like to see him nailed.

However, in this case...I don't think the govt has a case against him.

If they never got into the phone, how do they know there was evidence on there? How could they proved he wiped evidence if they had no clue what might be on there?

It also sounds like at the time, he wasn't under arrest? He had asked for a lawyer and had been refused?

He's not under any compulsion to give a password is he? They had the phone, nothing forced the authorities to trust anything he said....they could have tried forensics like they'd do if they had a safe and tried a safecracker to get in if the suspect didn't want to give the combination.

I just don't see the case they have....or if they do it has implications far wider for common citizens and their privacy.

You think only people that make millions pay back student loans?

No, please be serious.

BUT...we do have an incredible number of students that can NOT pay off their loans...hence all this call to have the US Tax payers pay their loans for them ie. loan forgiveness.

We need to quit giving out student loans and scholarships to people seeking worthless degrees....where these kids get into significant debt for fields that lead to jobs that do not pay enough for them to get that loan paid off....basically they become indentured servants for much of their adult life in a manner of speaking.

Let's met out student loans only to those pursuing degrees that are in fields that at least give them a fighting chance to earn enough money upon graduation and actually secure good jobs.

If you want to study underwater basket weaving, then find, do it on your own dollar, but no loaning of money to take worthless classes that do not need to meaningful jobs that earn $$ enough to pay the loans off AND lead to a happy level of livelihood and lifestyle.

You think influencers don't make money? Why do you imagine people keep doing it?

Sure I do....just like some people become multi-million dollar NBA basketball players, or earn millions doing Only Fans.

I believe that % of people after that goal that attain it are incredibly small.

Again, not massive enough success to risk hundreds of thousands of dollars in student loan debt they'll likely never pay off...
