. . . Figured it out . . .
Grrrrr . . .

You know the restâ¦

It has nothing to do with being cowards, they are robots. It's a case of saving a little money at the expense of being excluded from a lot of money.

Piracy laws are very effective... for curbing intentional piracy in businesses because they have too much to lose to break laws like these and they are basically robots with instructions to follow the law.

But they won't outlaw these, what they'd do is prohibit companies that use them from government work/contracts and the government gives away WAY too much of our money to give that up.

"And that's before you consider that TikTok and Slashdot are not remotely similar in their impact on people. "

Quantify this. What is this "impact" on people, and how are you measuring it?

You can do that, right? Because if you can't you're just another moron talking about how video games and rock lyrics and D&D are corrupting the minds of our youth.

You are posting to a social media site which many of us started participating it when it started, when we were "children." Your bootlicking is pathetic.

"What is the point of having a job, when you can not live from the wage?"

Sometimes it's to buy textbooks, or make extra money on the side, or to earn money during the summer so you can spend it during the rest of the year.

It's myopic to assume that all jobs are supposed to be full-time careers.

I just want to be clear about this: you believe the American middle class is smaller/worse-off than it was in the early 1900s?

Another person who needs to read Bastiat.

Do you think it would help the middle class to bring back the requirement for people to walk in front of cars waving a lantern?

"If I say "all white people should die"

That is 100% protected speech, full stop, and is absolutely your right to express in a free and open society.

"I've always been pro free speech, but"

You can always just stop posting after the 'but' because it means that you are not in fact pro-free speech.

What seemed to be noticeable errors this past year on watching my vehicle track on GPS. Some major lags on positioning, and even some apparent forays off road while traveling on an interstate. I realize the radio testing was done in the northeast Atlantic, but it seems like a possible explanation for something I had not seen in a long time. I also realize mine is an anecdote and not significant data. I do remember when they turned off selective availability, rigging my Garmin to the computer so I could watch the position accuracy numbers tighten up.

or does this administration seem to treat the periodic table like the first monolith in 2001?

with 12 launches in 3 years at a 58 percent success rate and zero orbits, and a requirement for 20 successful full orbit launches in 2 years. Musk has a reputation for hubris masking actions. This is not the same as using a LM. Wake me when they can auto land something unmanned on the moon.
