He didn't need it, he was pardoned immediately by his successor. Bush was never even prosecuted for his war crimes. The tweet is correct that no other president has needed immunity, but it's not because they didn't do crime. It's because the system has always been rotten, and these crooks have always covered each other's backs even across party lines.
I do love the way old cars look, but in addition to the poor mileage, they're also deathtraps by modern safety standards.
someone needs to do work to get anything
The issue isn't that someone needs to do work, it's that some people are forced to do more than their share of work so that other people can do less. There's a class of people who get money without having to lift a finger just for owning stuff (land, residential buildings, companies, etc.). When there are people who get money without having to earn it through work, that means there must be other people elsewhere in the system who are paid less than their work is worth. And there's not a damn thing they can do about it, because the owner class can simply refuse to pay them more, so the workers' choice is between being exploited or starving. The workers can't just go and find some land to claim as their own, it's all owned already.
I wish I could make YouTube "experience suboptimal revenue" in retaliation, but sadly I can't block more than 100% of ads.
I can't think of an application where a nail is better. Sure, sometimes a nail will do and there's no need to use a screw, but that doesn't make the nail better, just cheaper.
Because that's what intelligence is. There's a very funny video floating around of a squirrel repeatedly trying to bury an acorn in a dog's fur and completely failing to understand why it's not working. Now sure, a squirrel is not the smartest animal in the world, but it does have some intelligence, and yet there it is just mindlessly reproducing a pattern in the wrong context. Maybe you're thinking that humans aren't like that, that we make decisions by actually thinking through our actions and their consequences instead of just repeating learned patterns. I put it to you that if that were the case, we wouldn't still be dealing with the same problems that have been plaguing us for millennia.
I have an HP LaserJet 6L from like 1997. I recently managed to get it working reliably after decades of struggle and frustration that drove me to tears on occasion. So yes, as far as I can tell they've always been this bad.
Rejuvenating. It's the circle of life. The old have to die so that new life can spring from their corpses.
Yes, and the person you replied to gave an example of one. What's the problem?
Because a lot of people do use Photoshop for painting, and Adobe does recognize that and implement some painting tools into Photoshop.
I have rss feeds that’ll let me know if any of the coins I own spike for some reason.
Ooh, that sounds handy! Mind if I ask where those feeds are coming from?
Note the pattern: a willingness to ignore the details of what could go wrong, YOLO it and just test it out, and the assumption that if nothing goes wrong when you do that, it means that everything is fine and nothing else could possibly go wrong.
Did anyone else reading this bit immediately think of that other rich idiot that died in his ridiculous submarine?
Supply and demand. There are many workers and relatively few employers, so it's much easier to find a cheaper worker than a more generous employer.
Technically yes, but in practice any gains are going to be counteracted if not outweighed by the electromagnetic noise from the fan's motor. To avoid that interference and see any real improvement in your signal strength, you'd have to either use a fan with a shielded motor (the last such model went out of production in 1953, so good luck finding one) or a fan driven by an alternative power source such as a water wheel.
Initially, maybe, but I suspect they'll soon get over their infatuation with him, since I doubt he'll be able to hide the fact that he considers them beneath him. People only worship Trump from a distance.
As if I needed any more reasons to avoid their craptacular browser like the plague that it is.
Yes, it's almost as if making a car with completely flat body panels is an idea so completely idiotic even John DeLorean wouldn't do it...
Wait, I thought he was just bullshitting his fans with that. He's actually serious? XD
Also, I don't understand what this has to do with bare metal construction of the Cybertruck and why that should present exceptional difficulties. DeLorean figured out how to make bare metal cars more than forty years ago, so it can't be that hard.
So in other words, they can afford to pay damages for it. Make them pay!
