I am sick and tired of the War on Ownership. Being forced to pay a second time to “unlock” features that the hardware you bought us inherently capable of ought to be illegal. Tesla, especially, deserves the corporate death penalty for being at the forefront of the attacks!
Might as well get a bunch of maintenance and upgrades done now while they aren’t busy.
…assuming the business ever comes back, that is.
They’re both forms of autocracy, but their ideological justification and means of maintaining control are at least somewhat different. I don’t see any particular reason why said justifications would shift from monarchical →fascist ones; if anything, I’d expect it to go in the other direction as a fascist dictator seeks to “legitimize” his rule by claiming “divine right” or naming a hereditary successor. I would be more inclined to agree with the statement “fascism is proto-monarchism.”
As a person learning French, I think it’s more closely related to “training” or “entrain.”
When you put it that way, it sounds more like human trafficking than marriage.
The denial only increases my certainty that he’s serious about it.
Alternatively, he’s not considering “running” for a third term but instead just claiming it without an election.
True, but kids aren’t free-range anymore the way they were when I was growing up in the '80s & '90s.
Then quit being fucking paranoid cowards and fix that!
That’s why Napster went away (possibly before people late to the party had a chance to use it), but it didn’t stop it from being “the OG.”
At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if they start “deporting” African-American citizens to their “country of origin.”
Napster was so early that most folks didn’t have the bandwidth and CPU speed to deal with decent-quality video yet, so it initially only did MP3s. I think some folks forget about it because they didn’t get into the piracy scene until they could get TV shows/movies/software etc.
I believe there were also files like “yoursong.mp3 .exe” (not sure how this will render, but lots of spaces before the .exe so it would be hidden by the UI even if extensions weren’t hidden).
Replace your double-quotes with backticks, like this: yoursong.mp3 .exe.
I’d still be an “Engineer,” LOL. (I do civil engineering as well as CS, and try to work at the intersection of the two fields.)
That sounds extremely plausible.
Weird middle-aged Marty and white Jesus. Good concept, poor execution.
Other real (albeit idiotic) reasons might include Putin feeding Trump the idea of the US having control of the newly ice-free Northwest Passage, or just a sheer megalomaniacal desire to secure his legacy via territorial expansion.
The only way it could be more efficient is if the U.S. took over Canada and was trying to directly trade with Russia without Europe being in the way.
Exactly.
Greenland is part of Denmark, so attacking it ought to trigger NATO Article 5. I’m pretty sure NATO ex-US is capable of putting up a fight too, even if the 50k people who live in Greenland themselves could not.
Do you have any recommendations for a local Free Software tool to fix VHS artifacts (bad tracking etc., not just blurriness) in old videos?
I do not think that word means what you think it means, Chuck. That woman knows what’s up and is right to worry.
