No, the title of the post *I replied to* was "half the country voted for this".

"Oh god, we're not making enough money. Quick, fire the people making us the most profit!"

..in the fired.

"Most of the non-voters I've actually interacted with couldn't stand the idea of voting for either candidate."

Well, as long as you've carefully surveyed the situation...

" The assumption that a non-vote was a vote for Trump is just that, an assumption. And a bad one at that."

I'm not making that assumption. I'm just not making the assumption that a non-vote was a vote *against* Trump, which, without evidence (and no, "I talked with some of my non-voting friends" is not evidence) is an equally bad assumption.

Your analysis assumes that people who didn't vote would not have voted for Trump if they had voted. Trump doesn't have the support of half the nation now, with his approval rating in the dumpster, but I'm not convinced that was the case during the election.

First rule:
Contact the vendor via a method you already have on file. Worst case, Google a contact method. NEVER trust a link/phone number/whatever in an email, especially when it is unexpected.

There are still people out there for whom "You need to pay me in gift cards" doesn't raise all kinds of alarms?

"The planets Neptune and Uranus may be better described as "magma-ocean giants""

They're *fire* giants! Quick, go get Thor.

I believe you're remembering the short story "Why Johnny Can't Speed" by Alan Dean Foster, commonly citied as one of the inspirations for the game Car Wars.

"This makes the 6th data breach they have had."

This makes the 6th data breach that they've detected and admitted to.

My first reaction to this headline was "Why the hell does a system startup utility need any user records at all?"

"This was no boating accident."

"OceanGate was offering a commercial service."

Well, there's your first hurdle. According to OceanGate, they were *not* offering a commercial service. That's why the two passengers were listed as "mission specialists." So the first step would be proving that they were in the face of OceanGate's counterarguments. I would agree, that, yes, OceanGate was offering a commercial service, but legally proving that fact in face of OceanGate's resistance would not have been trivial.
