So I could go get my whole body ultrasonic-ct scan done while holding a cup of ingredients and walk out of there with an espresso?

I can figure out what hue, contrast, sharpness, and color saturation settings should be on my NTSC television. Anybody remember having to adjust that on a TV .. and the V-hold. Not to mention those rabbit ear antennas. Kids nowadays have it good, sort of. It was also fun now looking back.

It wasn't ugly. I have no opinion on whether painting it blue is an improvement or not (will wait until it's finished to collect visual data), but

I've seen the reflecting pool, and it wasn't ugly.

Most of those people don't care. If you see the world as "us against them," you don't really care how similar "them" is, as long as "us" is on top.

It's clan warfare, not logical fairness.

In the US, you can be fired for freely expressing your opinion (source).

The recourse is to start a union. When employers start policing social media, or opinions in general, it's time to join a union.

It's not fuzzy, it sucks. It is true under the law that a person can be fired for expressing their opinion publicly.

However, it's also true that it sucks. Employees do have a life outside work, and should not have their freedom of speech impinged by a corporation. People have been fired by Google because they disagree with Google working with Israel, for example. Silencing people doesn't change the disagreement, it just breeds dissatisfaction.

Employees do have recourse, and this is when I strongly consider joining a union. Don't want to be fired unfairly? That's what unions are for. Unions have drawbacks, but that is not one of them.

The Florida property tax headline-grabbing concept of No More Property Taxes!** ultimately got reduced to an **only-the-first-$250K footnote on the back page of a voting ballot scheduled four months from now.

Florida will now wait and see if even that bullshit footnote, passes a supermajority vote to become more than just political fodder.

And this is in a solvent State infamous for no State tax due to their local lottery earnings. Which the (now-legal) $200 billion dollar “speculative” scratch-off market in a country that illogically still keeps bookies in Federal prison, confirms those revenue gains.

Turns out it’s actually not “pretty easy”.

Yeah, who's the guy who said that? If it were me, those would be my last words before I kick the bucket.

(Joe Sixpack) "Shiiiit, if I had ten billion dollars I KNOW I would have WON me dat 'Murican Dream!"

* cracks beer *

(Cleetus) "Hey man. Yer Tindurr dinged. She said you're still only a 6 because 'eleven billion, loser.'"

You OK when AI technologies take 50% of human jobs, along with the mass chaos, violence, and death that instability will bring upon a society controlled by governments we already know won't react fast enough to prevent or even control that harm?

Bigger picture, is a LOT bigger than your semi-valid excuse. Understand that. This isn't taxing a corporation. This is forcing those who should be funding UBI, to actually fund the fucking thing.

No evidence, you claim? The entire fucking country of India, would like to have a word with LA county regarding how to count votes effectively. Lear anything yet about evidence, or do I need to say the words “California healthcare audit” again?

Tell you what. Let’s put 100 liberals against 100 conservatives in political debate. There’s only one rule. When any participant is caught lying or dismissing blatant fact, the moderator gets to punch them in the face.

First topics up for debate will be addressing why only Democrats assume minorities are too stupid/incapable to obtain ID cards to vote in Federal elections, but for everything else in society they’re mandatory and defended. Then we’ll move on to auditing the shit out of healthcare programs funded by taxpayers. Not even libtarded girl math will help dismiss the look of a lying Democrats face after that. And the battered faces in debate will be the receipts.

The media lets Republicans act like children? Should I schedule a quick media event with former President Dementia so the media can ask about fucking ice cream flavors, or should they ask Vice President Word Salad instead to cackle out another 74 reasons to schedule Democrat Punchfest SummerSlam, sponsored by Mike Tyson? See what I mean about libtards being fucking delusional and hypocrites? Ain’t no way you’re gonna factually claim the liberal leftist-dominated MSM lets conservatives “get away” with shit. The only time they let off the lie pedal is when a legal court order forces them to. (You know, like when The View is forced to read a legal apology on air again, to avoid being sued and/or fired.) The mainstream media, is literally how President Autopen and Vice President Didn’t Earn It, got elected. But don’t ask me to prove that. Ask their ratings instead.

Are Republicans innocent? Not hardly. They’re just not nearly as brain dead when it comes to acting like the true child in the room. Adults, sit down and debate. Children run off and refuse to, while playing victim Olympics. When liberal Democrats can start actively debating conservatives on issues that actually affect the majority, THEN they can make claims about integrity and election fraud.

Heres a simple fact. Raising the voting age in America, would only affect one political party. But it would benefit an entire Nation. Now go ahead and tell me why America should lower the voting age. Because that’s almost assuredly the Democrat play, since America isn’t dumb enough to elect an Open Border Czar again so lying libtards can try and win elections, and there isn’t quite enough homeless votes for Democrats to buy.

And by the way, it’s not Republicans being against climate change. It’s being against corrupt Democrats grifting taxpayers for that problem, while doing NOTHING to fix it. Count the number of homeless taken off California streets and high speed rails operating for evidence. We KNOW how Democrats will fund climate change. It’s becoming obvious with every audit long past due.

Yeah because it's directed within a specific area. This is a range of emitters over a large area with a large amount of wave diffractions and interactions. I'm not saying it's unsafe. I don't know the energy levels involved or anything like that. Just that it's not necessarily safe, compared to say non-ionizing radiation or magnetic fields.

Someone needs to maintain the pipes! It's just a series of them.

That's basically what every teenager and every disfunctional relationship does.

"You never pay attention to me!"
"Well, if you paid attention to me, you would know how much I am dealing with!"

It doesn't matter if it's factual it just matters if you get the tone right.

If the company doesn't have a QA team, if the company doesn't have negative unit tests, if the company hasn't trained their employees in secure coding practices, if the company doesn't have a system to avoid SQL injection exploits, etc

Then the company is at fault.
