Probably why they chose to *not* air Trump's speech. MSNOW often states this as a reason for not airing Trump speeches live and/or in their entirety -- too many lies, misrepresentations and bullshit from Trump and those in his administration.

Noting that Trump currently has a 20% tariff on all products from China.

Hah! All my systems use DDR3 and DDR2, and I've got a bunch of spare modules in the closet. :-)

My Windows 10 system is a DELL XPS-420 I got from a friend with 8GB DDR2 and my Linux Mint system, which was built from parts, has a ASRock Z77 Extreme3 motherboard from a friend on which I put an Intel Core i7-3770 and 32GB DDR3. Both run great, btw. I have a few other old(er) systems, including a Dell PowerEdge T110 (unused) that has 32GB ECC DDR3 and the AMD motherboard from an HP a6130n with a Athlon 64 X2 (B) 5000+ and 8GB DDR2 that I'm using as my OPNsense router/firewall -- I switched to that when a bad "won't fix" security bulletin was announce for my D-Link DSR-250 as I had the system lying around, so it was cheaper and more flexible than getting something new/dedicated. All my systems have SSDs for the systems files and I've added SATA3 PCI cards to the systems with only SATA2 on the motherboard (except for the OPNsense system). None of them are powerhouses, but they're fine and do what I need them to do pretty well. As a bonus, from a home security standpoint, I don't think anyone would ever want to steal any of them. :-)

It doesn't even have to fail. I would bet Google has enough other data that they use re-associate at least some of this data. How many people use Google services with their flight (or hotel) information for alerts, calendar, flight tracking, etc...

Exactly. You don't send an "alert" for a non-event. If the guy wasn't flagged, why was an alert sent? Doesn't sound correct to me. If the software just notes possible matches, subject to human review then say that, but it sounds like it's trying to do more or store staff is relying on it rather than thinking for themselves.

And, contrary to what the wealthy would assert, wealth and brains/smarts/intelligence doesn't always go hand-in-hand. If Trump hadn't gotten $14 million from his father and taken over his father's business, he probably wouldn't be anywhere near where he was before getting elected, perhaps selling used cars somewhere - no offense to used car sales people. :-)

Then you'd be living like the truly rich.

Buy some investments, borrow against them, only pay the interest, leave the investments to your heirs. When you die, they inherit them at their stepped-up value (usually way more than purchased) and pay little/no capital gains taxes when they sell a few shares to pay off those loans against your estate and pocket the rest.

Fun, ya, but it's "da mentals" that are ruining it for most of us. :-)

It's all the "winning" - driving this K-shaped economy. Brought to you by ... well, you know who.

Internal documents list it as, "Todayland". :-)

Worst pick-up line ever. :-)

Don't know if it's actually true, but people have posted (elsewhere) that it's less expensive to buy round-trip tickets to Japan and and spend a week at Tokyo Disneyland.

Maybe just having the most money isn't his Paramount concern ...

It takes effort to clean up someone else's slop, even, or especially, AI slop, sometimes more effort than simply doing it yourself.
