Actually, if "Russian Collusion delusion" was subject to a 'normal' legal process and not the rules of impeachment, there was enough information already known to proceed.
It's disingenuous to say there wasn't enough evidence for an impeachment when the senate refused to hear it. Rules of Impeachment allowed them to do that.
No...hard to claim smear campaign when principal testimony wasn't allowed to be heard. There was enough information already known to proceed if the process were subject to any other legal proceedings other than impeachment (like what any 'regular' citizen would face in court).
But, the middle school CSI class that figured out none of the timelines matched for GOP/Russian claims made about Biden and Burisma, plus the Republican-run committees that couldn't come up with anything, kind of point to maybe it is just fake news.
So you choose to believe the disinformation, then.
The GOP has done nothing, since at least 2007, but misrepresent the threat. They have done nothing but fear-mongering to get people, like you, to react to fear rather than think skeptically.
In the Expeditionary Force series of books, it is Colonel.
If you can't get enough signal on your phone to make it work, you can't get enough signal for a hotspot to work.
- lives in rural area with shitty coverage
- no cable or DSL
- satellite is pretty much the same service with the same costs and same limits as mobile
I saw this as a solution to my rural broadband access woes (no cable, no DSL, AT&T access horrible, Sprint access fantastic). Maybe I could dump my satellite TV and get into the modern world of Netflix, Hulu, and other services, and decrease my AT&T data plan.
Alas, roughly the time I ordered my Karma the infamous blog post appeared. Just received the gadget yesterday. As I already paid for a month, I'll use my (unlimited) 15 gig before I return it.
Shame...it's a nice implementation.
If we allow the government to socialize internet access, we'll wind up with a system that is constantly in need of repair, upgrades, and endless red tape to get even the slightest thing done, along with constant pressure to charge rich people more and give access away for free to poor people in the name of 'fairness...' We need to be stopping the relentless growth of big government, not find more things for them to get their paws into.
New generation of Slashdot poster doesn't know what the internet actually is or what it represents. Never thought I'd see it here.
Therefore...checkmate.
Agreed. The original post is somewhat comparing oranges to tangerines. Seems to be more of a DIRCM or LAIRCM for drones than an offensive system.
To all the drone theorists, have you read any Fred Saberhagen?
A lot of problems with law enforcement is that they are not properly trained on what the laws actually say. They think that they have limited or no jurisdiction over parking spots on arguably private property.
In my state, we sometimes do presentations to LE on what the law actually says. Once a parking spot gets designated as a handicapped spot, it becomes subject to the laws of the state or the local municipality...not Wal-Mart or the mall or Starbucks. And once we tell them that all of the fine goes to the local municipality, they generally start enforcing the law almost gladly. This is the law about actually displaying a permit when parked in a handicapped spot, not determining if someone is disabled enough to park in the spot.
But sometimes not. In our town the school system is the biggest violator. We actually have photos of the school cops parked in handicapped spots.
A handicapped toilet stall (the king of poopin' stalls) does not require a permit to use, unlike a parking spot. Building codes (at least in the US) for new construction require access for the disabled, especially for public-use or gov't facilities. The Americans with Disabilities Act contains guidelines for ramps, doors, hallways, ratios of disabled-to-non-disabled parking spots, and yes, bathroom stalls. Most of the time someone involved with the construction of a facility that is supposed to be accessible just guesses at what is appropriate, and most of the time they get it wrong (angles of ramps, doors open wrong way, etc.).
A lot of fun can be had by calling people out who are parked illegally in a handicapped spot. They tend to go psycho on you the moment you question them.
The ADA is also hugely ignored.
You expect the stall door to close in a public restroom so you can have a little privacy. Shouldn't someone in a wheelchair expect the same?
Someday somebody has got to decide whether the typewriter is the machine, or the person who operates it.
