So - to get an idea of how popular Obama's plan was so we can do the maths fairly... can you remind me how many judges struck Obama's ban down for being unconstitutional?", '>>{UsedToBCool} : Did Obama also try to create a border wall and simultaneously push an isolationist agenda when he blocked travel?', ">>{AmericanFabius} : We have dig a little deeper.

Military-aged males are all grouped into one category which is why the number appears so low.', '>>{ButterflySammy} : I guess it would be unconstitutional! Looks like we need check how similar the two bans are.

Definitely apples to apples if you are into revisionist history', '>>{BenDarDunDat} : Civilian casualties have historically run around 70%. Some wars were higher, some lower. However, the average is around 70%. That drones are only resulting in 4% civilian casualties is nothing short of amazing.', ">>{MiCK_GaSM} : “Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing” - Donald Trump, July 27th, 2016 Yeah, it's totally ridiculous.", ">>{RepelGropers} : That's the amusing thing about Trump.

How so?', ">>{ButterflySammy} : This is not an interrogation. I guess it isn't a conversation yet either - you haven't answered any of my questions, I'll get back to you once you do.", '>>{AmericanFabius} : I\'m sorry I thought it was clear I was conceding that Obama never uttered the phrase "Muslim Ban" but Trump did. I didn\'t think you wanted to banter back and forth about facts we already know. I\'m sorry for hurting your feelings by conceding your question about facts that no one is disputing.', ">>{ButterflySammy} : You were scared to say the facts because they are contrary to your assertion that both bans are the same. Don't be scared homie.", ">>{JohnGillnitz} : The number 117 is pathetically low. We know that isn't true. Still, it is several magnitudes less than what happened under Bush. You can have a drone war, a conventional war, or mass terror attacks. Pick one.", ">>{geedeeit} : Exactly! It's hilarious! [Like this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QS2a44F5TgM)", ">>{geedeeit} : If Russia had anything to do with these leaks, it happened months before Trump was the candidate. Anti-Hillary doesn't automatically mean Pro-Trump.", ">>{AmericanFabius} : Both bans are the same. To you that phrase magically makes them unconstitutional, I was asking you how when you got all upset with hurt feelings. Again sorry if this hurts your feelings but I don't follow the reasoning that two words makes an act unconstitutional for Trump that clearly wouldn't be unconstitutional if Obama had done it.", ">>{phiz36} : Wow. I'm sure they tried really hard to prove innocence. Like seriously, what incentive at all would they have to do that?", '>>{90sBojack} : Trump: It’s ‘Ridiculous’ ~~To Think~~ Russia Intervened In The Election On My Behalf. There. Fixed it for ya.', ">>{ButterflySammy} : You keep talking about feelings; are you trying to drop hints? Would you like me to ask you how you are? Both bans are not the same - Trump's ban is unconstitutional because he framed it as a muslim ban; that's literally a thing that makes them different. If Obama had called his ban a muslim ban I hope it would have been struck down... but he didn't... so it's not the same. Do you follow now... or... should... I... say... it... slower? Edit: And while I remember - I wasn't saying the difference is that one is unconstitutional - the reason I mention it is because I said the amount of people not travelling to the US will depend on how *popular* each ban is **not** how *constitutional* they were. I was showing that Trump's ban is widely unpopular inside your own country as well as outside it. To that note, I'd never heard of Obama's ban so I don't know why are crying about him. We were calculating how much travel both would cost which depend on how many people don't like it, not how much you can conflate Trump's ban with Obama's.", '>>{AmericanFabius} : He "framed it" as a Muslim Ban? How does that make it unconstitutional? Clearly it wasn\'t a Muslim ban as it was only seven countries and only for 90 days and the EO said nothing about Muslims. Are you saying his words on the campaign trail carry forward and alter the constitutionality of an otherwise constitutional act? What is the constitutional principle this theory rests on? Is there any precedence in our history where campaign statements later affected the constitutionality of an otherwise constitutional executive act?', ">>{opheliaks} : Mass terror attacks? You mean the one that happened 15years ago? that's if you believe the shady hole filled story BS that was. The only option is war is what you're saying. Do you hear yourself? Welcome to being conditioned.", ">>{ButterflySammy} : Why do I care? I only mention it because we are looking at how popular it is so we can calculate the different relative change in tourism revenue - I'm trying to establish Trump's ban is so unpopular it keeps getting struck down by his own country where people are protesting it - compare that to Obama's ban where it was popular enough to pass relatively silently.", ">>{ButterflySammy} : I didn't say that - I said we should look at popularity and you threw an Obama tantrum. I opened: > An amount proportional to the number of people who opposed his ban in countries that could travel to the US + the amount lost from the country that could not I assume. > So - **to get an idea of how popular Obama's plan was** so we can do the maths fairly... can you remind me how many judges struck Obama's ban down for being unconstitutional? It's simple - the financial impact will be relative to how many people dislike the policy - more people hate Trump's. Even people in his own country. So the financial impact of Trump's ban will be worse. Which bans are and are not constitutional don't matter to my argument - just the fact that Trump's ban keeps getting struck down and Obama's didn't - and only because that says Trump's ban is more unpopular, not because I care about how constitutional either are. I already told you I'm not American, why are you even crying about Obama's ban being unconstitutional in the middle of a discussions about the cost to tourism? We can agree Obama's ban was unconstitutional right now - won't change what it cost. Won't change that it went through like a whisper in the night while Trump's ban was like a fart in an elevator.", ">>{1liberalsocialist} : Maybe those civilians shouldn't have standing between the enemy and the weapons. Obama knew what he was doing. Unlike Thump. I wish we could have just kept Obama forever.", ">>{AmericanFabius} : >**I'm trying to establish Trump's ban is so unpopular it keeps getting struck down by his own country** Popularity determines constitutionality? Lol that's a new one >I said we should look at popularity and you threw an Obama tantrum. Please don't make personal attacks. It's against the rules.", ">>{oowowaee} : Just had another friend tell me today he and his family will be travelling inside of Canada this year rather than visiting the states. So, uh, you're not just losing Somali tourist dollars, and to pretend that is a joke.", '>>{ButterflySammy} : No - constitutionality is irrelevant when it is popularity that will determine how many people don\'t travel because of the ban. If the rest of the world think Trump\'s ban is worse than Obama\'s ban and act on their belief then it will be worse economically because less people will travel. You can argue constitutionally Obama\'s ban was just as illegal as Trump\'s, and it may be true for all I know, but that doesn\'t change that Trump\'s ban is being received way worse than Obama\'s. We can agree that constitutionality Obama\'s ban was just as bad if you like - this is a discussion about the economic affects of both bans and constitutionality is irrelevant - people looking to travel to the US aren\'t basing their opinion of the travel ban on how constitutional it is; that\'s something you argue about internally. See - regardless of how legal your government considers things, I don\'t care - it\'s not my government. That\'s not how people living in other countries look at before deciding to travel to the USA or go elsewhere. What does sway me is when I see someone at a Trump rally on stage saying "Fake news - or to use it\'s original name Lúgen press" - when I see the ruling party trying to invoke Hitler at a rally I don\'t think "Good time for a foreigner to visit".', '>>{BenDarDunDat} : I made this over a month ago, but I think I found the statistics on Wikipedia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civilian_casualty_ratio', '>>{oowowaee} : Plenty of people I am sure, but less.', ">>{fuzeebear} : This article I didn't read is biased and wrong!", '>>{FakeeMcFake} : Yes..I jest, of course. But while Trump seems to be winning now...the long term backlash will hurt them. *Who wants to move or start a new economy business in the backwards climate of Middle America? Lower taxes, sure...but bad schools, bad political & economic environments, racism, homophobia, religious intolerance, etc. keep *profitable*, good paying job makers out*. In 15-20 years, when Trumpland whines & wants a bailout *again*, the rest of us will shrug and think "this is all on you - & you\'re on your own."']

Poor Trumpland...no one loves you anymore.", ">>{ButterflySammy} : An amount proportional to the number of people who opposed his ban in countries that could travel to the US + the amount lost from the country that could not I assume. So - to get an idea of how popular Obama's plan was so we can do the maths fairly... can you remind me how many judges struck Obama's ban down for being unconstitutional?", '>>{UsedToBCool} : Did Obama also try to create a border wall and simultaneously push an isolationist agenda when he blocked travel?', ">>{AmericanFabius} : We have dig a little deeper. If Obama did this same sort of ban, which he did, would it be unconstitutional? Is something really unconstitutional if it isn't for one President but allegedly is for another?", '>>{ButterflySammy} : I guess it would be unconstitutional! Looks like we need check how similar the two bans are. Let\'s start by asking: * how many times did Obama call it a "Muslim Ban"? and * how many times does Obama\'s website use the phrase "Muslim Ban"?', '>>{MissionStyle} : So Obama rabble roused his base with racist comments then proceeded to attempt to ban a region based on that promise with no actionable intelligence? Definitely apples to apples if you are into revisionist history', '>>{AmericanFabius} : So those phrases make an otherwise constitutional act, unconstitutional? How so?', ">>{ButterflySammy} : This is not an interrogation. I guess it isn't a conversation yet either - you haven't answered any of my questions, I'll get back to you once you do.", '>>{AmericanFabius} : I\'m sorry I thought it was clear I was conceding that Obama never uttered the phrase "Muslim Ban" but Trump did. I didn\'t think you wanted to banter back and forth about facts we already know. I\'m sorry for hurting your feelings by conceding your question about facts that no one is disputing.', ">>{ButterflySammy} : You were scared to say the facts because they are contrary to your assertion that both bans are the same. Don't be scared homie.", ">>{AmericanFabius} : Both bans are the same. To you that phrase magically makes them unconstitutional, I was asking you how when you got all upset with hurt feelings. Again sorry if this hurts your feelings but I don't follow the reasoning that two words makes an act unconstitutional for Trump that clearly wouldn't be unconstitutional if Obama had done it.", ">>{ButterflySammy} : You keep talking about feelings; are you trying to drop hints? Would you like me to ask you how you are? Both bans are not the same - Trump's ban is unconstitutional because he framed it as a muslim ban; that's literally a thing that makes them different. If Obama had called his ban a muslim ban I hope it would have been struck down... but he didn't... so it's not the same. Do you follow now... or... should... I... say... it... slower? Edit: And while I remember - I wasn't saying the difference is that one is unconstitutional - the reason I mention it is because I said the amount of people not travelling to the US will depend on how *popular* each ban is **not** how *constitutional* they were. I was showing that Trump's ban is widely unpopular inside your own country as well as outside it. To that note, I'd never heard of Obama's ban so I don't know why are crying about him. We were calculating how much travel both would cost which depend on how many people don't like it, not how much you can conflate Trump's ban with Obama's.", '>>{AmericanFabius} : He "framed it" as a Muslim Ban? How does that make it unconstitutional? Clearly it wasn\'t a Muslim ban as it was only seven countries and only for 90 days and the EO said nothing about Muslims. Are you saying his words on the campaign trail carry forward and alter the constitutionality of an otherwise constitutional act? What is the constitutional principle this theory rests on? Is there any precedence in our history where campaign statements later affected the constitutionality of an otherwise constitutional executive act?', ">>{ButterflySammy} : Why do I care? I only mention it because we are looking at how popular it is so we can calculate the different relative change in tourism revenue - I'm trying to establish Trump's ban is so unpopular it keeps getting struck down by his own country where people are protesting it - compare that to Obama's ban where it was popular enough to pass relatively silently.", ">>{ButterflySammy} : I didn't say that - I said we should look at popularity and you threw an Obama tantrum. I opened: > An amount proportional to the number of people who opposed his ban in countries that could travel to the US + the amount lost from the country that could not I assume. > So - **to get an idea of how popular Obama's plan was** so we can do the maths fairly... can you remind me how many judges struck Obama's ban down for being unconstitutional? It's simple - the financial impact will be relative to how many people dislike the policy - more people hate Trump's. Even people in his own country. So the financial impact of Trump's ban will be worse. Which bans are and are not constitutional don't matter to my argument - just the fact that Trump's ban keeps getting struck down and Obama's didn't - and only because that says Trump's ban is more unpopular, not because I care about how constitutional either are. I already told you I'm not American, why are you even crying about Obama's ban being unconstitutional in the middle of a discussions about the cost to tourism? We can agree Obama's ban was unconstitutional right now - won't change what it cost. Won't change that it went through like a whisper in the night while Trump's ban was like a fart in an elevator.", ">>{AmericanFabius} : >**I'm trying to establish Trump's ban is so unpopular it keeps getting struck down by his own country** Popularity determines constitutionality? Lol that's a new one >I said we should look at popularity and you threw an Obama tantrum. Please don't make personal attacks. It's against the rules.", ">>{oowowaee} : Just had another friend tell me today he and his family will be travelling inside of Canada this year rather than visiting the states. So, uh, you're not just losing Somali tourist dollars, and to pretend that is a joke.", '>>{ButterflySammy} : No - constitutionality is irrelevant when it is popularity that will determine how many people don\'t travel because of the ban. If the rest of the world think Trump\'s ban is worse than Obama\'s ban and act on their belief then it will be worse economically because less people will travel. You can argue constitutionally Obama\'s ban was just as illegal as Trump\'s, and it may be true for all I know, but that doesn\'t change that Trump\'s ban is being received way worse than Obama\'s. We can agree that constitutionality Obama\'s ban was just as bad if you like - this is a discussion about the economic affects of both bans and constitutionality is irrelevant - people looking to travel to the US aren\'t basing their opinion of the travel ban on how constitutional it is; that\'s something you argue about internally. See - regardless of how legal your government considers things, I don\'t care - it\'s not my government. That\'s not how people living in other countries look at before deciding to travel to the USA or go elsewhere. What does sway me is when I see someone at a Trump rally on stage saying "Fake news - or to use it\'s original name Lúgen press" - when I see the ruling party trying to invoke Hitler at a rally I don\'t think "Good time for a foreigner to visit".', '>>{oowowaee} : Plenty of people I am sure, but less.', ">>{fuzeebear} : This article I didn't read is biased and wrong!", '>>{FakeeMcFake} : Yes..I jest, of course. But while Trump seems to be winning now...the long term backlash will hurt them. *Who wants to move or start a new economy business in the backwards climate of Middle America? Lower taxes, sure...but bad schools, bad political & economic environments, racism, homophobia, religious intolerance, etc. keep *profitable*, good paying job makers out*. In 15-20 years, when Trumpland whines & wants a bailout *again*, the rest of us will shrug and think "this is all on you - & you\'re on your own."']]

They are great from a CC company perspective and a vendor perspective because it is easier to argue that a charge wasn't fraudulent (even if it was). Exchanged keys is a pain to manage on a small basis, and would be a nightmare to handle for something of this scope. Text messages is a possibility, but there are complications with that too. Lose your phone? Can't use your CC. Don't have a phone? Can't use your CC. Phone get cutoff because you didn't pay the bill? You can't use your CC. One time use credit card numbers are their own tracking nightmare. Honestly the ApplePay type model is the best in my opinion though ApplePay isn't implemented with all the protections it could have. I haven't studied the Google/Android model but assume it is similar. With those approaches the vendor never gets your CC number, only Apple has that info.

You can fake a credit card just like a SIM. The point is, as some point it may as well go that way, because it has a lot of potential benefits over credit cards that you have to fully consider rather than just the potential flaws. Credit cards had many potential flaws, and actually flaws that ultimately caused security problems, but we figure it out scam by scam.", ">>{Iksuda} : Yeah, definitely, this, but the problem is, at least last I checked, they're more of a debit card or a much better version of those Visas you charge up without a bank.

Pretty much isn't a thing here, but I saw it more in the UK. The only places I see have the tap terminal are places with a lot of college students going, and as far as I know they're not actually credit cards - more debit cards.

Also I would bet that it's feasible to electronically detect what numbers are displayed on the card without looking at it or touching it.

This screen is just 3 digits - unless it is a Faraday cage it's probably going to leak.", ">>{Iksuda} : Absolutely, but I didn't say get rid of CCs right away. Even these new CCs will take years to roll out and you'd have to expect the same of phones. Frankly the fact that people still don't have phones in the USA disgusts me anyway, it's essential to modern life. It's arguably a right all Americans deserve to have that connection. The people who can't afford phones, with the exception of some elderly people, have the least security risk because they live paycheck to paycheck and generally don't make as many purchases as a wealthier person would. My basic point is simply that scrolling numbers on a CC seems to be a nearly useless and redundant technology, and is becoming ever more so by the day. We should act on the expectation that someday soon everyone will have a phone. A great number of advancements humans have made are similar, and once upon a time it was said that the phone would never be more useful than perhaps a line to every town. Now everyone has on in their home, even the tremendously poor in the US, and there's no reason that they shouldn't have one in their pocket, especially if they're working. They both deserve and need it.", ">>{PonyKiller81} : I see your point. Mobile phones have become an integral part of the lives of essentially everyone on Reddit. It would be a long road before they could totally replace credit cards, for these reasons: 1) Not everyone has a mobile phone; b) Many cannot afford the cost of buying and using a mobile phone (I think many have become a bit desensitised to the amount we pay for them) iii) Not everyone here lives in the US, myself included. Maybe this plan could work in the States. In many parts of Australia, however, this would not. I'm all for new technology, as long as no one is left disadvantaged by what is meant to be a step forward.", ">>{Iksuda} : Yeah, I'm talking about the US particularly but I didn't think of the number of places besides the number of places besides extremely poor countries that might have this problem. Australia and the US may be alike to some extent though if you mean what I think you mean. It's a big place. Not everyone could use a cell phone even if they had one. It's true of the US too, it's a massive country and even I live somewhere I get an occasional signal if I'm lucky. Again though, I'm totally not saying we should just leave those people behind. The size and wealth of that demographic would mean that, should we begin to use cell phones to pay more, this card would be of very little real importance.", '>>{pb7280} : Almost nowhere Ive seen accepts apple pay though, this tap app works almost everywhere', ">>{pb7280} : In Canada, almost all credit/debit cards now have an NFC chip you tap on the payment terminal (which is in almost all stores). The app just emulates the cards chip so it works anywhere the tap cards work The stores pretty much have to have a PIN terminal machine for credit card payment (we don't do signatures at all anymore), and these machines mostly include the tap hardware. So it is very widely available", '>>{Iksuda} : Yeah, the NFC chips are usable in a lot of the US now, but there are still loads of places they still have the same machines. When I lived in the UK it was similar, they all had chips. I guess the hard thing really is that chipped cards still have a static security code for online purchases.

Including within the past year where they determined the costs where too high", ">>{OozeNAahz} : Yeah, the chips are pretty dumb from a card holder perspective. At least it isn't chip and pin. They are great from a CC company perspective and a vendor perspective because it is easier to argue that a charge wasn't fraudulent (even if it was). Exchanged keys is a pain to manage on a small basis, and would be a nightmare to handle for something of this scope. Text messages is a possibility, but there are complications with that too. Lose your phone? Can't use your CC. Don't have a phone? Can't use your CC. Phone get cutoff because you didn't pay the bill? You can't use your CC. One time use credit card numbers are their own tracking nightmare. Honestly the ApplePay type model is the best in my opinion though ApplePay isn't implemented with all the protections it could have. I haven't studied the Google/Android model but assume it is similar. With those approaches the vendor never gets your CC number, only Apple has that info. To make it more secure, setting up the CCs in ApplePay should require a step on the CC card side to approve it. It seems a bit too easy to link someone else's CC to an ApplePay account you control.", ">>{Iksuda} : Yeah, I mean I get this, in its current state it's not viable (but there are a variety of ways you can use your phone as more of a debit card, and they have pretty good track records), but many of these are also CC issues. You can fake a credit card just like a SIM. The point is, as some point it may as well go that way, because it has a lot of potential benefits over credit cards that you have to fully consider rather than just the potential flaws. Credit cards had many potential flaws, and actually flaws that ultimately caused security problems, but we figure it out scam by scam.", ">>{Iksuda} : Yeah, definitely, this, but the problem is, at least last I checked, they're more of a debit card or a much better version of those Visas you charge up without a bank.

Pretty much isn't a thing here, but I saw it more in the UK. The only places I see have the tap terminal are places with a lot of college students going, and as far as I know they're not actually credit cards - more debit cards. Either way, the fact that we do have this technology just makes it all the more ridiculous that we need something like this card.", ">>{Iksuda} : Google had it first I think, but the point is why make a stupid changing card when banks instead of tech giants could use the technology. Also they're all basically debit card equivalents I believe - not actually credit cards.", ">>{Iksuda} : Enough people in the US have cell phones to make a switch over right now to just about everyone. They'd still make credit cards, but the credit cards would very much be a fringe situation.

It\'s easy for the comfortable to talk about smartphones like everyone has one. In reality, for many this is not the case. Your "cheap" phone is another man\'s unobtainable dream. Last year I gave a woman at my work an old LCD television. She was amazed and incredibly grateful. Never underestimate the struggle of others. Anyways back to the original topic ...', ">>{PonyKiller81} : Why is this downvoted? It's a perfectly reasonable point of view. Sure the majority has cellphones. Comment is still valid and fair.", '>>{Duffelson} : You can find NFC payment option in pretty much every store in Finland, no matter how small.', ">>{tddp} : This is entirely redundant if you use 3D Secure and have the user authenticate with their card provider on checkout. Who actually needs a card like this? 60 minutes is a hell of a long time to rotate the code. Criminals will react by simply using your stolen card details faster. Also I would bet that it's feasible to electronically detect what numbers are displayed on the card without looking at it or touching it. We already have the technology to see what's on a screen by the radio frequencies it leaks. This screen is just 3 digits - unless it is a Faraday cage it's probably going to leak.", ">>{Iksuda} : Absolutely, but I didn't say get rid of CCs right away. Even these new CCs will take years to roll out and you'd have to expect the same of phones. Frankly the fact that people still don't have phones in the USA disgusts me anyway, it's essential to modern life. It's arguably a right all Americans deserve to have that connection. The people who can't afford phones, with the exception of some elderly people, have the least security risk because they live paycheck to paycheck and generally don't make as many purchases as a wealthier person would. My basic point is simply that scrolling numbers on a CC seems to be a nearly useless and redundant technology, and is becoming ever more so by the day. We should act on the expectation that someday soon everyone will have a phone. A great number of advancements humans have made are similar, and once upon a time it was said that the phone would never be more useful than perhaps a line to every town. Now everyone has on in their home, even the tremendously poor in the US, and there's no reason that they shouldn't have one in their pocket, especially if they're working. They both deserve and need it.", ">>{PonyKiller81} : I see your point. Mobile phones have become an integral part of the lives of essentially everyone on Reddit. It would be a long road before they could totally replace credit cards, for these reasons: 1) Not everyone has a mobile phone; b) Many cannot afford the cost of buying and using a mobile phone (I think many have become a bit desensitised to the amount we pay for them) iii) Not everyone here lives in the US, myself included. Maybe this plan could work in the States. In many parts of Australia, however, this would not. I'm all for new technology, as long as no one is left disadvantaged by what is meant to be a step forward.", ">>{Iksuda} : Yeah, I'm talking about the US particularly but I didn't think of the number of places besides the number of places besides extremely poor countries that might have this problem. Australia and the US may be alike to some extent though if you mean what I think you mean. It's a big place. Not everyone could use a cell phone even if they had one. It's true of the US too, it's a massive country and even I live somewhere I get an occasional signal if I'm lucky. Again though, I'm totally not saying we should just leave those people behind. The size and wealth of that demographic would mean that, should we begin to use cell phones to pay more, this card would be of very little real importance.", '>>{pb7280} : Almost nowhere Ive seen accepts apple pay though, this tap app works almost everywhere', ">>{pb7280} : In Canada, almost all credit/debit cards now have an NFC chip you tap on the payment terminal (which is in almost all stores). The app just emulates the cards chip so it works anywhere the tap cards work The stores pretty much have to have a PIN terminal machine for credit card payment (we don't do signatures at all anymore), and these machines mostly include the tap hardware. So it is very widely available", '>>{Iksuda} : Yeah, the NFC chips are usable in a lot of the US now, but there are still loads of places they still have the same machines. When I lived in the UK it was similar, they all had chips. I guess the hard thing really is that chipped cards still have a static security code for online purchases. A phone could use a number that changes every purchase like a much more advanced version of this card.', '>>{lurk_n_throw} : And you can "refund" to an Apple Pay device. It\'s not just one-way.', '>>{AkirIkasu} : I know this comment is old, but I just wanted to point out that your phone already has a number of different encryption engines built into it. With Android Pay (and Apple Pay too, I believe), it stores your sensitive information inside what\'s called a "Secure Element" that is typically embedded in the NFC controller. That Secure Element is essentially as secure as data can possibly be.']]

What do you do in 2 years time after being elected though? The 2009 Democratic trifecta put in place the most anti-inequality spending since LBJ, put in place strong financial regulation, and saw the US regain respect and good governance. In November 2010 the American people voted decisively against that, with conservative Democrats being hit particularly hard, as they were seen as supporting a centre-left agenda.', '>>{RayWencube} : > In November 2010 the American people voted decisively against that **That** is the problematic narrative. That isn\'t at all what happened. Political scientists have known going back to the 70s that midterm elections are categorically not referenda on the President. Here\'s why: There are three groups who vote in a presidential election. Partisan Democrats, partisan Republicans, and true independents. The true independents tend to be the group that decides the winner of the presidency. Moreover, they are much more likely than the partisans to let their choice in President determine their choice in down-ballot races. In midterm elections, however, there are only two groups who vote: partisan Democrats and partisan Republicans. The independents stay home. Therefore, the President\'s party *typically* has a much smaller coalition of voters than it did during the general election. The result is that congressmen who won on the backs of those independents in the presidential are at a high risk of losing in the midterms. Certainly 2010 was worse than most (maybe all) years, but a pretty significant amount of the "extra" losses can be explained pretty easily by the fact that the Democratic base\'s enthusiasm was at a probably record-breaking high in 2008 because of Obama. That enthusiasm doesn\'t last long, and it had worn off by 2010. Moreover, Obama attracted *a ton* of independent support--moreso than is typical of a winning President. The result is that the Democratic coalition was not only thumped by the loss of a historically sizeable group of independents, but also significantly reduced turnout from partisan Democrats.', ">>{letsmakemistakes} : I'm no longer shocked about how often I see people post stuff like that unsarcastically :[", ">>{PolanetaryForotdds} : I know, my post is really day-to-day stuff, but I mean, I'm posting it literally under the evidence I'm asking for.

It\'s virtually guaranteed. To start, you have to build enthusiasm among the party base during the presidential election. That leads to Democrats getting elected during that election. Then, you have to *sustain* that enthusiasm through the mid-terms by, say, championing popular policies like single-payer or Wall Street reform, so the size of the base is not reduced in the midterm. Meanwhile, you have to focus on convincing non-partisans to become partisan Democrats. The way to do that is long and complicated, but it boils down to "be exciting, simple, and populist."', ">>{AtomicKoala} : Do you have any examples of this working?

Like I was agreeing with your idea that Democrats have forgotten just how right wing the US is, they ignored the lessons of 2010 and 2014.', '>>{RayWencube} : No, the Democrats have been *too* right wing (well, too corporatist at least). The vast, vast majority of the electorate don\'t think in ideological terms--that has been a central tenet of political science since the 50s. The Dems have lost sight of the populist message that led them to power in the 40s-70s. Moreover, when you spend your time campaigning on "man, I\'m not like the rest of my party--they are all socialist shitlibs but I\'m basically a republican" you leave voters wondering why they shouldn\'t just vote for the republican.', '>>{RayWencube} : I swear I\'m not toeing a line here, but it would be Bernie\'s message. "The system has left average Americans behind, and I am going to relentlessly fight that system, and here\'s how" The how of it honestly doesn\'t matter that much so long as it\'s *different*', '>>{AtomicKoala} : Yeah, I get that. What do you do in 2 years time after being elected though? The 2009 Democratic trifecta put in place the most anti-inequality spending since LBJ, put in place strong financial regulation, and saw the US regain respect and good governance. In November 2010 the American people voted decisively against that, with conservative Democrats being hit particularly hard, as they were seen as supporting a centre-left agenda.', '>>{RayWencube} : > In November 2010 the American people voted decisively against that **That** is the problematic narrative. That isn\'t at all what happened. Political scientists have known going back to the 70s that midterm elections are categorically not referenda on the President. Here\'s why: There are three groups who vote in a presidential election. Partisan Democrats, partisan Republicans, and true independents. The true independents tend to be the group that decides the winner of the presidency. Moreover, they are much more likely than the partisans to let their choice in President determine their choice in down-ballot races. In midterm elections, however, there are only two groups who vote: partisan Democrats and partisan Republicans. The independents stay home. Therefore, the President\'s party *typically* has a much smaller coalition of voters than it did during the general election. The result is that congressmen who won on the backs of those independents in the presidential are at a high risk of losing in the midterms. Certainly 2010 was worse than most (maybe all) years, but a pretty significant amount of the "extra" losses can be explained pretty easily by the fact that the Democratic base\'s enthusiasm was at a probably record-breaking high in 2008 because of Obama. That enthusiasm doesn\'t last long, and it had worn off by 2010. Moreover, Obama attracted *a ton* of independent support--moreso than is typical of a winning President. The result is that the Democratic coalition was not only thumped by the loss of a historically sizeable group of independents, but also significantly reduced turnout from partisan Democrats.', ">>{AtomicKoala} : Right, what I'm asking is, how would you avoid this?", '>>{RayWencube} : It\'s very difficult because the President\'s party always loses seats in the midterm. It\'s virtually guaranteed. To start, you have to build enthusiasm among the party base during the presidential election. That leads to Democrats getting elected during that election. Then, you have to *sustain* that enthusiasm through the mid-terms by, say, championing popular policies like single-payer or Wall Street reform, so the size of the base is not reduced in the midterm. Meanwhile, you have to focus on convincing non-partisans to become partisan Democrats. The way to do that is long and complicated, but it boils down to "be exciting, simple, and populist."', ">>{AtomicKoala} : Do you have any examples of this working? I'm interested.", ">>{data2dave} : You got a Progressive Gay mayor in Fort Wayne. Sorry, his name doesn't roll off my tongue. But there is hope. Whereas the Bayh clan is too establishment, boring and Third way and they lose. Economic Populism is what is needed-- not the phony brand of Trump's which will be undone with another recession around the corner.", ">>{data2dave} : Too be honest, Obama, tried to deal with Republicans more than tried to energize his base during '09 and '10. He did the opposite of FDR who never gave quarter to the Republicans who led us into the Great Depression. Also, the ACA wasn't a good cause as Jobs and stimulus were a far more important goal then. He kissed Wall Street's butt and let Main Street whither by giving Republicans too much respect.", '>>{AtomicKoala} : Yeah fair point, would have been better if Hillary won in 08. Obama was mediocre at that stuff.', '>>{AtomicKoala} : How do they hold on to power in 2 years time though?', '>>{butdoctorimpagliacci} : institutions will always fight change. they will never give it up willingly. the republicans fought trump every step of the way, and only accepted some concessions on economic populism and lgbt acceptance when he won. establishment democrats will never give an inch, they must be purged and replaced.', '>>{data2dave} : Sorry, but both have similarities and Hillary\'s probably would be worse than Obama\'s. She\'d give Social Security to ReThugians if it meant more contributions for her funding and Third Way agenda. Her inability to not be a "trimmer" of the truth matched her husband\'s. and I\'m old enough to remember how Limbaugh and Gingrich kneecapped the Clinton\'s two years into their first Term. Again major disaster for Democrats.']]

You have to use the TVs internet like Netflix and there are 4 or 5 shows that in in 4k, YouTube videos are way compressed anyway so it isn\'t even really 4k, and forget about TV, it will be years before they go to 4K, besides some havent even gone to 1080p yet. Yes it will look better with the more dense pixles and the better color representation but unless you have a PC capable of handling 4K (with gtx 980ti and above with capable cpu) there is no point in getting a 4K tv, or a "4k" console.

Really, the best for sound is Lazer Disk. Streaming anything has something called compression rate.

Sure bluray sounds great when you consider it next to someone with'a 7mb connection. Also blu ray bit rate is 40mps and usually coded and pressed at 25. Sooo my internet which I adjust for, actually comes out way ahead of bluray as far as compression goes. However I will agree bit rates and compression combined will always better on bluray.

Unless someone is a extreme home theater user (high end) I can agree bluray will provide an over all better expierence that can match going to the movies. However for the other 99% people watching movies at home, streaming is perfect. It's proven by the 20% jump in digital media and the 12% decrease in DVD/bluray sales. Digital sales outsold physical media period by 20%. Case and point convenience will always win. VHS beat laser disc, compressed audio files killed the CD and 4K bluray is dead before it even started.

The xb1 s will run games at 900p or 1080p (I believe I saw that it might try to simply upscale to 4k sometimes) at 30-40 fps on low to medium settings. You also are talking about an 800 dollar graphics card? What card right now costs 800? A 1080 is cheaper than that and a new Titan X is way more but completely unnecessary for gaming and more for workstations.

The fact alone you had to goto a Reddit called PC master race is pathetic all in its own. If you knew shit about builds you would know that build will not keep up. Second: Your x4 with a 750 is going to blow balls. If you play Tetris or another GPU dependent game, your fine. Play a new game and tell me how it works. Next the requirement was for a $300 PC that compares. You went and cited someone else's build and still busted budget and you're not even close to being done. I'll exclude monitor because I know your going to say something about a tv. We both know PC gamers don't play on a TV so you need a monitor. You still need a OS, power supply, speakers, keyboard, mouse, and a few other things. So again you lose. I win. Just give up kid.

Some of this is because I have limited bandwidth due to my geographical location. I am excited for 4k movies and the amazing surround sound that will support them. Your argument fails to take into consideration the immense variety of hardware configurations, human preferences, internet services, and personal economic situations.

Also, I was the one who started talking about getting a 4k bluray player. Your response was to the person who replied to me. My point was simply that you shouldn\'t label people as being "behind the times" without giving some consideration first. It was opinionated and inclusive of millions of people who aren\'t early adopters or cord cutters, or whose circumstances don\'t match your own. I still think you spoke in ignorance (both times). It\'s not like I called you stupid.', ">>{throwthisawayacc} : Automatic driver updates if you so wish, and issues like having no audio are very rare.

You look like you're trolling, you can't jump back and forth between two different arguments. Obviously he wasn't trying to say that an i3 can pair up with a 980, and the 980 is still pretty expensive compared to newer cards that match or outperform it at equal or lesser prices so mentioning it at all doesn't even make any sense. You could throw together an i3 and a 750ti or an RX 460 and have something that matches the performance of the xbox one s and beats it in the cases of more cpu intense games. And that's not even factoring in overclocking the gpu, whereas the consoles out now have mid-range gpus from 2012, underclocked. Let's not even factor in the cost of xbox live or the fact that xbox games on average cost more than PC games, without even considering websites that sell keys for cheap. These factors exacerbate the savings you get from PC every year after you've made the purchase.", ">>{Macnsal09} : I actually didn't jump back and forth. Follow the conversation and you will see I only jumped to counter his argument when he left the main topic. Also I fully awknoledged that gpu he mentioned are perfectly fine just not with an i3. It's proven ready when you run an i3 with those gpu, it's a troubled set up for new games. People are running the i3 set up at low to medium settings just to get a decent refresh or frames. It's nothing personal or a way to try to win the argument. Newer games just require more CPU power/ GPU power ratio. The argument was getting a full PC set up for 300 bucks that matches what Xbox s will do. And for 300 bucks it's just not going to happen. I also never argued that games were cheaper or more expensive. Anyone can research and find this to be a plausible factor.", ">>{Macnsal09} : Agreed it's simple once you have done it a time or two. However fact remains consoles are designed as Uplp in general. PCs try to be and generally are easy but they are not as easy as consoles.

So when there is a lot going on it drop the res from "1080" to 460. Besides, there is VERY VERY few content that is even in 4K. You have to use the TVs internet like Netflix and there are 4 or 5 shows that in in 4k, YouTube videos are way compressed anyway so it isn\'t even really 4k, and forget about TV, it will be years before they go to 4K, besides some havent even gone to 1080p yet.

But it's ok because you obviously don't care about the experience, grant it I do have Netflix and enjoy the convenience but that's all it is to me. Also, 4K Blu-ray does exist.

Sure bluray sounds great when you consider it next to someone with'a 7mb connection. Also blu ray bit rate is 40mps and usually coded and pressed at 25. Sooo my internet which I adjust for, actually comes out way ahead of bluray as far as compression goes. However I will agree bit rates and compression combined will always better on bluray. Audio I will agree can be tricky and requires some work. 90% of everything I stream is 7.1 and the rest is 5.1. Unless someone is a extreme home theater user (high end) I can agree bluray will provide an over all better expierence that can match going to the movies. However for the other 99% people watching movies at home, streaming is perfect. It's proven by the 20% jump in digital media and the 12% decrease in DVD/bluray sales.

Shut the fuck up about things you know nothing about, go back to playing your games at a cinematic 30 fps, and of course, never stop being a waste of space and oxygen. Hahaha jeezus', ">>{Macnsal09} : We will address your comments backwards. First I told you I'm a PC gamer but I'm also not an idiot thinking a $300 PC compares. The fact alone you had to goto a Reddit called PC master race is pathetic all in its own. If you knew shit about builds you would know that build will not keep up. Second: Your x4 with a 750 is going to blow balls. If you play Tetris or another GPU dependent game, your fine. Play a new game and tell me how it works. Next the requirement was for a $300 PC that compares. You went and cited someone else's build and still busted budget and you're not even close to being done. I'll exclude monitor because I know your going to say something about a tv. We both know PC gamers don't play on a TV so you need a monitor. You still need a OS, power supply, speakers, keyboard, mouse, and a few other things. So again you lose. I win. Just give up kid. It's not possible to build a $300 gaming PC that will compete with Xbox s. Go back to Reddit. I look forward to your highly educated response. /S", '>>{SpaceGoonie} : I completely disagree that I am behind the times. I already have Netflix for streaming, which I use frequently. However for the best quality picture and sound on my current hardware Bluray is my best bet. If I want to watch something I own that is also available on Netflix, I will put the disk in for the best quality picture and sound. Some of this is because I have limited bandwidth due to my geographical location. I am excited for 4k movies and the amazing surround sound that will support them. Your argument fails to take into consideration the immense variety of hardware configurations, human preferences, internet services, and personal economic situations. Millions of people still use basic DVD players because they didn\'t see a need or have the ability to upgrade to HD and Bluray. You saying they are "behind the time" is insensitive and ignorant.', ">>{Sundried_Poop} : That's cool except some people don't have the money or time to devote to a gaming PC.

I have no problem with people enjoying consoles.

Read the conversation and try to understand it. Nothing I've said has been directed at you.", '>>{SpaceGoonie} : Your statement may not have been directly aimed at me, but it certainly includes me (and many others). Also, I was the one who started talking about getting a 4k bluray player. Your response was to the person who replied to me. My point was simply that you shouldn\'t label people as being "behind the times" without giving some consideration first. It was opinionated and inclusive of millions of people who aren\'t early adopters or cord cutters, or whose circumstances don\'t match your own. I still think you spoke in ignorance (both times). It\'s not like I called you stupid.', ">>{throwthisawayacc} : Automatic driver updates if you so wish, and issues like having no audio are very rare. If they do occur, the solution is generally pretty simple and the application probably just needs to be run in some sort of compatibility mode. Once an issue has been troubleshooted (we're talking standard issues, nothing like modding bethesda games) it most likely will never pop up again.", '>>{throwthisawayacc} : With an SSD, a PC can go from off to in-game faster than a console too, and it has a handicap since the consoles (IIRC) are always on, but in sleep mode when not in use.', ">>{throwthisawayacc} : You realise he was talking about an i3 to match the xbox one S, right? You look like you're trolling, you can't jump back and forth between two different arguments. Obviously he wasn't trying to say that an i3 can pair up with a 980, and the 980 is still pretty expensive compared to newer cards that match or outperform it at equal or lesser prices so mentioning it at all doesn't even make any sense. You could throw together an i3 and a 750ti or an RX 460 and have something that matches the performance of the xbox one s and beats it in the cases of more cpu intense games. And that's not even factoring in overclocking the gpu, whereas the consoles out now have mid-range gpus from 2012, underclocked. Let's not even factor in the cost of xbox live or the fact that xbox games on average cost more than PC games, without even considering websites that sell keys for cheap. These factors exacerbate the savings you get from PC every year after you've made the purchase.", ">>{Macnsal09} : I actually didn't jump back and forth. Follow the conversation and you will see I only jumped to counter his argument when he left the main topic. Also I fully awknoledged that gpu he mentioned are perfectly fine just not with an i3. It's proven ready when you run an i3 with those gpu, it's a troubled set up for new games. People are running the i3 set up at low to medium settings just to get a decent refresh or frames. It's nothing personal or a way to try to win the argument. Newer games just require more CPU power/ GPU power ratio. The argument was getting a full PC set up for 300 bucks that matches what Xbox s will do. And for 300 bucks it's just not going to happen. I also never argued that games were cheaper or more expensive. Anyone can research and find this to be a plausible factor.", ">>{Macnsal09} : Agreed it's simple once you have done it a time or two. However fact remains consoles are designed as Uplp in general. PCs try to be and generally are easy but they are not as easy as consoles. Never have been and never will be ( which turns out to offer more benefits then downfalls).", '>>{Macnsal09} : I didn\'t call you stupid either. Sorry I triggered you. Block me and goto your safe zone. Like I said, read and if your still,offended I do t know what to tell you. Fact remains bluray is old technology and streaming is current technology.

It was an Apple decision some time ago to make the management of NSFW apps a site by site decision.

If only someone had warned us about this. Let\'s be honest here: The concern that many of us have isn\'t the action, it\'s the *actor.* In just three days time Donald Trump went from a strict isolationist to bombing a nation that posed no threat to national security, he made his decision so quickly that Congress learned about the strike from the evening news reports. The attack on Syria may have been the right thing to do, personally I\'m still conflicted on that, but what I\'m concerned about are the President\'s motives. Do we really think that a man who advocated for [targeting and killing civilians in the war on terror](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1eXRXL0nkk), who [is seeking to loosen rules protecting against civilian deaths from drone strikes](https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/12/us/politics/trump-loosen-counterterrorism-rules.html), who has been [responsible for over a thousand civilian deaths in Iraq and Syria *in the month of March alone*](http://www.newsweek.com/trumps-war-civilian-deaths-syria-577353), is suddenly queasy about civilians dying overseas? Firing fifty tomahawk missiles into Syria to protect the civilians is fine, but [accepting Syrian refugees is a step too far for this man.](http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/trump-signs-two-executive-orders-expands-power-military-extreme-vetting-n713336) That should scare the shit out of anybody: Donald Trump is more willing to risk war than risk accepting immigrants. I am reminded of a point in the campaign when Donald Trump was asked about abortion rights (something he\'s flip flopped on repeatedly throughout his life, going from "very pro-choice" when he was a registered Democrat to being "very pro-life" when he was running as a Republican) and he screwed up his answer by saying that yes, women should be punished for having an abortion. The shit hit the fan, as did his poll numbers, and he started saying and doing anything he could to fix the situation. As a result he [went through five different, often conflicting positions on abortion in three days.](https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/04/03/donald-trumps-ever-shifting-positions-on-abortion/?utm_term=.d24b1b12ea34) Donald Trump is a man who ran his entire campaign on the theory that whatever got the most applause was the best thing to say. Just tell the people what they want to hear and put on a good show, that\'s what matters. But we\'re past the campaign now, we\'re past the point where words alone are all that\'s required to bring Donald Trump the popularity and praise he\'s so addicted to. His poll numbers are in the tank, he\'s being hounded by scandals from Russia to Mar A Lago, so far all of his initiatives are failing, and his supporters are turning their back on him. Words aren\'t enough and he knows that, *he needs popular action.* Maybe [after four years of decrying war against Syria](https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/donald-trump-syria-tweets-old-2013-stay-out-of-many-bad-things-will-happen-a7671561.html) he really did have a change of heart, maybe we\'re finally seeing the real Donald Trump. Perhaps through the campaign bluster about [reinstating waterboarding and worse](http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/gop-primaries/268530-trump-calls-for-hell-of-a-lot-worse-than-waterboarding), the [calls to take Iraq\'s oil](https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/donald-trump-threat-seize-iraq-oil-reserves-cia-middle-east-us-president-petroleum-a7545106.html), the [threat of indiscriminate bombing](http://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-bomb-isis-2015-11), and the [advocation of targeting civilian families for military strikes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1eXRXL0nkk), he actually was a humanitarian all along. Maybe we should ignore the [record high number of civilian deaths caused by US-led airstrikes under Donald Trump](http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/donald-trump-civilian-deaths-syria-iraq-middle-east-a7649486.html), follow Kellyanne\'s advice, and look at "what\'s in his heart." Maybe we shouldn\'t judge Donald Trump by any of the words he said or the actions he took before we struck Syria last night, or maybe we should let his past inform our opinion of the present. But what if Donald Trump\'s motivations aren\'t so benevolent as he would have us believe? As we discuss the fawning media, the ecstatic Congressional Republicans, the warhawks cheering how strong and presidential he looks, and the allies around the world praising his quick action, let\'s consider a less wholesome alternative: Donald Trump on October 9th, 2012: * [Now that Obama’s poll numbers are in tailspin – watch for him to launch a strike in Libya or Iran.

It completely contradicts his stated approach to foreign policy, even though the facts of the situation have not changed. We knew last summer that Assad has used chemical weapons against his people, but Trump was content to keep bleating about "America First" and non-interventionism. One can completely understand why the people who voted for him are pissed off, though it\'s less clear why it\'s *this* lie that seems to have struck a chord with them, given that he has demonstrably lied to them ad nauseum since the very beginning of his campaign.

If only someone had warned us about this. Let\'s be honest here: The concern that many of us have isn\'t the action, it\'s the *actor.* In just three days time Donald Trump went from a strict isolationist to bombing a nation that posed no threat to national security, he made his decision so quickly that Congress learned about the strike from the evening news reports. The attack on Syria may have been the right thing to do, personally I\'m still conflicted on that, but what I\'m concerned about are the President\'s motives. Do we really think that a man who advocated for [targeting and killing civilians in the war on terror](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1eXRXL0nkk), who [is seeking to loosen rules protecting against civilian deaths from drone strikes](https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/12/us/politics/trump-loosen-counterterrorism-rules.html), who has been [responsible for over a thousand civilian deaths in Iraq and Syria *in the month of March alone*](http://www.newsweek.com/trumps-war-civilian-deaths-syria-577353), is suddenly queasy about civilians dying overseas? Firing fifty tomahawk missiles into Syria to protect the civilians is fine, but [accepting Syrian refugees is a step too far for this man.](http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/trump-signs-two-executive-orders-expands-power-military-extreme-vetting-n713336) That should scare the shit out of anybody: Donald Trump is more willing to risk war than risk accepting immigrants. I am reminded of a point in the campaign when Donald Trump was asked about abortion rights (something he\'s flip flopped on repeatedly throughout his life, going from "very pro-choice" when he was a registered Democrat to being "very pro-life" when he was running as a Republican) and he screwed up his answer by saying that yes, women should be punished for having an abortion. The shit hit the fan, as did his poll numbers, and he started saying and doing anything he could to fix the situation. As a result he [went through five different, often conflicting positions on abortion in three days.](https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/04/03/donald-trumps-ever-shifting-positions-on-abortion/?utm_term=.d24b1b12ea34) Donald Trump is a man who ran his entire campaign on the theory that whatever got the most applause was the best thing to say. Just tell the people what they want to hear and put on a good show, that\'s what matters. But we\'re past the campaign now, we\'re past the point where words alone are all that\'s required to bring Donald Trump the popularity and praise he\'s so addicted to. His poll numbers are in the tank, he\'s being hounded by scandals from Russia to Mar A Lago, so far all of his initiatives are failing, and his supporters are turning their back on him. Words aren\'t enough and he knows that, *he needs popular action.* Maybe [after four years of decrying war against Syria](https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/donald-trump-syria-tweets-old-2013-stay-out-of-many-bad-things-will-happen-a7671561.html) he really did have a change of heart, maybe we\'re finally seeing the real Donald Trump. Perhaps through the campaign bluster about [reinstating waterboarding and worse](http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/gop-primaries/268530-trump-calls-for-hell-of-a-lot-worse-than-waterboarding), the [calls to take Iraq\'s oil](https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/donald-trump-threat-seize-iraq-oil-reserves-cia-middle-east-us-president-petroleum-a7545106.html), the [threat of indiscriminate bombing](http://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-bomb-isis-2015-11), and the [advocation of targeting civilian families for military strikes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1eXRXL0nkk), he actually was a humanitarian all along. Maybe we should ignore the [record high number of civilian deaths caused by US-led airstrikes under Donald Trump](http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/donald-trump-civilian-deaths-syria-iraq-middle-east-a7649486.html), follow Kellyanne\'s advice, and look at "what\'s in his heart." Maybe we shouldn\'t judge Donald Trump by any of the words he said or the actions he took before we struck Syria last night, or maybe we should let his past inform our opinion of the present. But what if Donald Trump\'s motivations aren\'t so benevolent as he would have us believe? As we discuss the fawning media, the ecstatic Congressional Republicans, the warhawks cheering how strong and presidential he looks, and the allies around the world praising his quick action, let\'s consider a less wholesome alternative: Donald Trump on October 9th, 2012: * [Now that Obama’s poll numbers are in tailspin – watch for him to launch a strike in Libya or Iran.

The news today isn\'t going to be talking about the lousy jobs report we just got in, they won\'t be covering Jared Kushner\'s newly revealed ties to Russia, the nuclear option is already gone from the headlines and front pages and Neil Gorsuch\'s impending appointment to the Supreme Court is barely worth a bi-line, the $1trillion infrastructure bill President Trump was peddling for this week probably won\'t be mentioned, and who knows what happened at Mar A Lago with Chinese President Xi Jinping?

Normally the bed would be stationary and the hot end would be moving around, but this model has the hot end stationary and the bed moves. This means that the bed should only hold a certain amount of weight before the weight begins to alter the print quality negatively. Each pair of those arms you see is attached to a carriage which is attached to a belt and the belt is moved by a NEMA motor. The X, Y, and Z are corners of a triangle and the three motors move to be able to reach all points within the build container of the printer. Most people run a delta with a bowden hot end (basically the extruder motor that feeds the plastic in is held somewhere else and feeds plastic through a PTFE tube to the hot end) so they don't even have the extra weight of an extruder motor supported by their delta arms. Considering an extruder motor weighs about 250g - I would think this printer will suffer in quality printing items over 200g or 300g. Notice how in the samples all the larger prints are vases, they have to offset the weight problem by printing hollow objects. This may be decent for printing small samples, but for the price, you'd expect much more. The build quality does look nice, but I think the design would have been better with a 4-tube bowden feed and something like E3D's Kraken hotend. I'm fairly sure you could find some mods online of people who run such a setup. _________________________________________________________________________________ I personally have a Rostock Max v2 Delta printer, so if you're good at soldering and building - that's a great option. There is also a similarly priced Hatchbox brand Delta printer on Amazon that's already assembled. Again, on 3D printers, I'd recommend against them if you don't have technical ability or the patience to invest in reading on how to properly operate and maintain them.

Normally the bed would be stationary and the hot end would be moving around, but this model has the hot end stationary and the bed moves. This means that the bed should only hold a certain amount of weight before the weight begins to alter the print quality negatively. Each pair of those arms you see is attached to a carriage which is attached to a belt and the belt is moved by a NEMA motor. The X, Y, and Z are corners of a triangle and the three motors move to be able to reach all points within the build container of the printer. Most people run a delta with a bowden hot end (basically the extruder motor that feeds the plastic in is held somewhere else and feeds plastic through a PTFE tube to the hot end) so they don't even have the extra weight of an extruder motor supported by their delta arms. Considering an extruder motor weighs about 250g - I would think this printer will suffer in quality printing items over 200g or 300g. Notice how in the samples all the larger prints are vases, they have to offset the weight problem by printing hollow objects. This may be decent for printing small samples, but for the price, you'd expect much more. The build quality does look nice, but I think the design would have been better with a 4-tube bowden feed and something like E3D's Kraken hotend. I'm fairly sure you could find some mods online of people who run such a setup. _________________________________________________________________________________ I personally have a Rostock Max v2 Delta printer, so if you're good at soldering and building - that's a great option. There is also a similarly priced Hatchbox brand Delta printer on Amazon that's already assembled. Again, on 3D printers, I'd recommend against them if you don't have technical ability or the patience to invest in reading on how to properly operate and maintain them. Deltas are also considered more prone to calibration problems than a standard Cartesian model. If you want a starter 3d printer, I'd recommend a Monoprice Select Mini at $199 - which minimizes the investment if you decide 3d printing isn't right for you.", '>>{printering} : This looks like linear rails on a home-built Cartesian.

He is not functionally literate. He isn\'t thoroughly literate. Often people with dyslexia struggle with literacy and can\'t read at adult levels because of that.

The mail app works fine for any email services except for gmail, so if you do have a gmail account (I assume you do since you're coming from android), use the gmail app instead of iOS's mail app. Gmail restricts iOS's mail app to only fetch instead of push, so you're not always up to date if a new mail comes in.

The mail app works fine for any email services except for gmail, so if you do have a gmail account (I assume you do since you're coming from android), use the gmail app instead of iOS's mail app. Gmail restricts iOS's mail app to only fetch instead of push, so you're not always up to date if a new mail comes in. This is personal preference, but Google Keyboard was always my keyboard since it was release on Play Store in KitKat, so I've pretty much used Gboard ever since I owned my iPhone. iOS's stock keyboard doesn't suit me. Also, my dictionary was brought over from android (I tend to speak a mix of english and my own native language), so all the words learnt on android is somewhat here as I am given suggestions of words from my native langauge even though I set it to English.

Gmail could only login to Gmail accounts while on android, they support Yahoo iMAP, outlook and other office emails. But Google apps still works better on iOS. On android, there's that constant battery drain from Google Play Services, something iOS doesn't have. As for me, iOS 10 offers the option to uninstall most of the system apps, so I uninstalled Mail, Calender, Apple Music and Maps in preference for Gmail, Google Calendar and Google Maps.

A voting system should also give equal representation to everyone (though maybe we can argue about this). The EC gives drastically different weight to different votes based on the state, doesn't differentiate between winning by 1 vote or 1 million votes, and also forces there to only ever be two viable options for the presidency (unless something really crazy happens). On the very arguably plus side it gives higher weight to certain states which might not be represented in choosing a president. I don't think it has really any pros that outweigh its cons, so let's get rid of it and implement something better. One idea that looks promising would be a ranked choice popular vote. It would allow for many possible viable candidates, discourage tactical voting, and give everyone equal representation. In such a system you could have had Clinton, Trump, Sanders, Kasich, Johnson, Stein,... all running on the ballot without splitting voters.

What makes the people of Vermont more deserving of such protection than people across the border in the Adirondacks of New York? Why do Iowa farmers need special privileges while Illinois farmers have *less* influence on the POTUS election than they would if we just did a popular vote? We should care about *people* not states. People concerned about "large states" having an advantage without the electoral college are often implicitly expressing concerns that without the EC the rural vote wouldn\'t matter (never mind that several small states like Rhode Island, Colorado, Utah, Connecticut, Hawaii, Delaware and Nevada are highly urban). The US census classifies America as 81% urban. That\'s a *deeply* deceptive figure because the census bureau classifies urban areas as follows: >For the 2010 Census, an urban area will comprise a densely settled core of census tracts and/or census blocks that meet minimum population density requirements, along with adjacent territory containing non-residential urban land uses as well as territory with low population density included to link outlying densely settled territory with the densely settled core. To qualify as an urban area, the territory identified according to criteria must encompass at least 2,500 people, at least 1,500 of which reside outside institutional group quarters. An urban area can have less than 3,000 people. Ever been to Fredericksburg, TX? Quaint tourist trap of a town in Texas hill country. 10,500 residents. Most people would classify it as rural. It\'s an urban area. But lets put that aside and pretend for a second that voters that we think of as "rural" voters are only 19% of the US population. Would they get overwhelmed in a national popular vote? Probably not. Look at Florida for an example. Cubans are only around 7% of the vote in Florida. Does anyone in the world think that people running statewide races in Florida neglect to court the Cuban community or don\'t make an effort to listen to and address the desires of Cuban voters? The influence of Cubans on Florida politics is *famous* and they\'re proportionally only around 1/3 the size of even a narrowly construed US rural vote. Likewise, the Florida panhandle comprises around 7.5% of the state. This last election the panhandle alone delivered Trump the margin he needed to win Florida. The panhandle *matters* in state politics. Not as much as Miami, true, but it certainly still matters.

In general a voting system should give many good options and allow people to pick their favorites of those options without being forced to vote tactically. A voting system should also give equal representation to everyone (though maybe we can argue about this). The EC gives drastically different weight to different votes based on the state, doesn't differentiate between winning by 1 vote or 1 million votes, and also forces there to only ever be two viable options for the presidency (unless something really crazy happens). On the very arguably plus side it gives higher weight to certain states which might not be represented in choosing a president. I don't think it has really any pros that outweigh its cons, so let's get rid of it and implement something better. One idea that looks promising would be a ranked choice popular vote. It would allow for many possible viable candidates, discourage tactical voting, and give everyone equal representation. In such a system you could have had Clinton, Trump, Sanders, Kasich, Johnson, Stein,... all running on the ballot without splitting voters.

Now obviously, we'd be naive not realize that this is the very reason why the discussion is being raised in the first place. But now that we're talking about it, the decision should be made for the right reasons. One big reason is that people's votes will actually matter in non-swing states, possibly boosting the national voter turnout significantly.

In school, I remember hearing that it was a result of limited space in the Capitol building, but that's hardly a reason to let the numbers get so out of whack. A lot has changed since the early 20th century. Fuckers should excavate space under the National Mall if they're worried about preserving architecture.", '>>{RSeymour93} : It was also designed to protect the institution of slavery. Not all of the design decisions in the constitution were good or wise. And the emphasis on protecting smaller states may have made some sense in 1776 but looks bizarre in the present day. What makes the people of Vermont more deserving of such protection than people across the border in the Adirondacks of New York? Why do Iowa farmers need special privileges while Illinois farmers have *less* influence on the POTUS election than they would if we just did a popular vote? We should care about *people* not states. People concerned about "large states" having an advantage without the electoral college are often implicitly expressing concerns that without the EC the rural vote wouldn\'t matter (never mind that several small states like Rhode Island, Colorado, Utah, Connecticut, Hawaii, Delaware and Nevada are highly urban). The US census classifies America as 81% urban. That\'s a *deeply* deceptive figure because the census bureau classifies urban areas as follows: >For the 2010 Census, an urban area will comprise a densely settled core of census tracts and/or census blocks that meet minimum population density requirements, along with adjacent territory containing non-residential urban land uses as well as territory with low population density included to link outlying densely settled territory with the densely settled core. To qualify as an urban area, the territory identified according to criteria must encompass at least 2,500 people, at least 1,500 of which reside outside institutional group quarters. An urban area can have less than 3,000 people. Ever been to Fredericksburg, TX? Quaint tourist trap of a town in Texas hill country. 10,500 residents. Most people would classify it as rural. It\'s an urban area. But lets put that aside and pretend for a second that voters that we think of as "rural" voters are only 19% of the US population. Would they get overwhelmed in a national popular vote? Probably not. Look at Florida for an example. Cubans are only around 7% of the vote in Florida. Does anyone in the world think that people running statewide races in Florida neglect to court the Cuban community or don\'t make an effort to listen to and address the desires of Cuban voters? The influence of Cubans on Florida politics is *famous* and they\'re proportionally only around 1/3 the size of even a narrowly construed US rural vote. Likewise, the Florida panhandle comprises around 7.5% of the state. This last election the panhandle alone delivered Trump the margin he needed to win Florida. The panhandle *matters* in state politics. Not as much as Miami, true, but it certainly still matters.

Their tradecraft is superb, operational security second to none and the extensive usage of ‘living-off-the-land’ techniques enables them to easily bypass many security solutions they encounter. In particular, we identified advanced methods consistent with nation-state level capabilities including deliberate targeting and ‘access management’ tradecraft – both groups were constantly going back into the environment to change out their implants, modify persistent methods, move to new Command & Control channels and perform other tasks to try to stay ahead of being detected.

Their tradecraft is superb, operational security second to none and the extensive usage of ‘living-off-the-land’ techniques enables them to easily bypass many security solutions they encounter. In particular, we identified advanced methods consistent with nation-state level capabilities including deliberate targeting and ‘access management’ tradecraft – both groups were constantly going back into the environment to change out their implants, modify persistent methods, move to new Command & Control channels and perform other tasks to try to stay ahead of being detected.

The first attempt at "ISIS" by the first al-Baghdadi was laughed out of existence by groups like al-Qaeda because they had no support, no caliphate, no backing and weren\'t recognized as a legitimate state. ISIS\' goal is to bring about the apocalypse, a war between the West and Muslims. Anyone who does not fight in this war is apostate. The war is supposed to occur in Dabiq, however Turkish backed rebels took the city back this week, and ISIS\' last major stronghold lies in Mosul. Essentially, this will be one of the last main places that ISIS has to fight. All of its fighters must fight or else be declared apostate. Warning of this attack will likely cause dissonance within ISIS ranks and will allow townspeople to leave. Those who want to heed ISIS\' call will stay, and Iraqi/US forces will retake Mosul. The aftermath will be one of the last key battles in conquering ISIS, as without a caliphate they will be illegitimate.

The first attempt at "ISIS" by the first al-Baghdadi was laughed out of existence by groups like al-Qaeda because they had no support, no caliphate, no backing and weren\'t recognized as a legitimate state. ISIS\' goal is to bring about the apocalypse, a war between the West and Muslims. Anyone who does not fight in this war is apostate. The war is supposed to occur in Dabiq, however Turkish backed rebels took the city back this week, and ISIS\' last major stronghold lies in Mosul. Essentially, this will be one of the last main places that ISIS has to fight. All of its fighters must fight or else be declared apostate. Warning of this attack will likely cause dissonance within ISIS ranks and will allow townspeople to leave. Those who want to heed ISIS\' call will stay, and Iraqi/US forces will retake Mosul. The aftermath will be one of the last key battles in conquering ISIS, as without a caliphate they will be illegitimate.

Sounds a whole lot like Turkey's Erdogan administration.", ">>{UrukHaiGuyz} : >Before today he would have been willing to endorse Trump and do work on his behalf in Ohio, a critical swing state. “I’m probably not going to any more,” he said. LOL, you're supposed to burn bridges *after* you cross them, morons. No wonder there are so many tight races in what should be reliably red states.", '>>{Ximitar} : That guy is brown. Get rid of him, would you please?', '>>{AnusFreeSince93} : Way to race bait by including his ethnicity in the title when it had nothing to do with the article.', '>>{JoshuaZ1} : It is clear from the article that his ethnicity had nothing to do with the matter but was rather a very marginally critical tweet.

America has, for better or worse, one of the only militaries capable of projecting force anywhere in the world, and the onus to stop genocide and atrocities falls on us. I don't think she'll back down from that. But she also won't go off half-cocked at the slightest provocation, which has been a hallmark of Trump's. Her social policies and healthcare initiatives are good - and I'd like to see what she can do to move that forward as President.

In fact, here is what President Eisenhower said when he met with the CIA, I believe for the first time during his presidency...

Success cannot be advertised: failure cannot be explained. In the work of intelligence, heroes are undecorated and unsung, often even among their own fraternity.

I assure you this is indeed true.” https://www.cia.gov/news-information/featured-story-archive/2010-featured-story-archive/dwight-d-eisenhower.html Quite the difference between the two (Eisenhower/Trump), wouldn\'t you say?', '>>{eggsuckingdog} : Gonna be a long 4 years listening to this guy talk about himself.', ">>{NeverHadTheLatin} : The word is describing the nature of the affront.

In fact, here is what President Eisenhower said when he met with the CIA, I believe for the first time during his presidency... "During the laying of the cornerstone for the Original Headquarters Building in 1959, Eisenhower paid tribute to Agency officers: “By its very nature the work of this agency demands of its members the highest order of dedication, ability, trustworthiness, and selflessness — to say nothing of the finest type of courage, whenever needed. Success cannot be advertised: failure cannot be explained. In the work of intelligence, heroes are undecorated and unsung, often even among their own fraternity. Their inspiration is rooted in patriotism — their reward can be little except the conviction they are performing a unique and indispensable service for their country, and the knowledge that America needs and appreciates their efforts. I assure you this is indeed true.” https://www.cia.gov/news-information/featured-story-archive/2010-featured-story-archive/dwight-d-eisenhower.html Quite the difference between the two (Eisenhower/Trump), wouldn\'t you say?', '>>{eggsuckingdog} : Gonna be a long 4 years listening to this guy talk about himself.', ">>{NeverHadTheLatin} : The word is describing the nature of the affront.

You could argue that to use the word vain would run the risk of allowing other possible meanings to potentially confuse the message. 'Vain' can also mean futile, as in 'gave battle in vain,' which might lead someone to read the headline as 'Trump's futile affront to the CIA'. 'Vain' also has strong connotations with aesthetics, especially personal looks, which wouldn't be completely out of keeping with Trump's character, so maybe the headline refers to Trump comparing his looks with those of a CIA officer.

By avoiding to go to war with Russia, that\'s just the minimum standard. That\'s nothing. Trump would have to forgive the sanctions against Russia, but that wouldn\'t solve Europe\'s issues yet. Russia did kill 200 passengers in that airliner from Holland. Russia did annex Crimea.

In order to avoid going to war with Russia, one could go to war with basically everybody else. America could go to war with Iran, Saudi Arabia, China, Iraq again, Turkey... And then America could avoid going directly against Russia. Only problem is the body count being left behind. Trump may be too "dim" to want to go to war with anybody. But the "red lines" and "sanctions" can put him under duress all the same. Trump hasn\'t yet forgiven Russia in the least. So he hasn\'t yet solved the Russian issue. By avoiding to go to war with Russia, that\'s just the minimum standard. That\'s nothing. Trump would have to forgive the sanctions against Russia, but that wouldn\'t solve Europe\'s issues yet. Russia did kill 200 passengers in that airliner from Holland. Russia did annex Crimea. And Russia is still at war in Syria and Russia will not single-handedly deal with the humanitarian issues in the Middle East, even if they were allowed to. Climate change is still a thing. Population growth is still a thing. Immigration is also still important and a source of distress.

The only slowdown I face in my 150 USD off contract Redmi 3 Pro is on games, so if I have Switch, obviously it's good enough for my needs. If you're in US where carrier subsidized phone are common, a decent one like BLU R1 HD can be had for less than $50, this kind of phone should be good enough for non-gaming purposes. Now I personally don't find the need for playing console, so I pick a good enough phone for casual gaming on the go and fill the itch for FPS & RTS on my laptop. For someone who actually relish consoles, especially Nintendo libraries, it's no brainer, they may even forgoes laptop/phone upgrade to save for Switch. Doesn't matter how fast is your smartphone, there's no way it can compete with Nintendo game libraries. People still play old games in their console/PC because of the gameplay, not because of how many pixels are moving around.

To the point I think having 2 smartphone, one for normal stuff and other for "game only", is more practical. 2.The best game I have played on my nexus 7(2012) is MACHINE KNIGHT (kemko). And it is mostly gba style graphics. And still have some frame drops. You have to turn off wifi to load games faster. Adventure Capitalist takes 1 minute to load. I can\'t participate on events because it just crashes. And my Nexus 7 is supposed to have way more stronger hardware than a PSP. 3.Touch only controller sucks for many kind of games. Platformers is umplayable. I would like the smartphones have physical buttons like XPERIA PLAY or Shield. >You can bluetooth regular console controller and special controller for smartphone. It\'s half-ass compared to nintendo switch and way more inferior than 3DS. You have to sync every fucking time the controller to play it because you have to turn sync off in order to maintain battery longer.

I guarantee you they will soon be running ads just featuring Brietbart\'s ridiculous "news" articles and racist conspiracy theories, and they are going to make Trump go out and defend them all day long. This campaign is going to shine a giant spotlight on the Brrietbart and alt-right media cesspool for the entire country to see, and it\'s going to absolutely tank a campagin they had no chance of winning anyway.

They\'re interested in the "passionate following" they can "monetize" and that\'s all. From day one, Trump\'s campaign has been nothing but a grand con. He never thought he\'d win the nomination. But, now that he has he\'s going for bigger fish and more marks. With Bannon\'s help and the hundreds of thousands of rubes who hang on his every word, Trump\'s got the makings of a TV, radio, and print media operation. Trump and Bannon are going after Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, the Washington Times and the other Right Wing media cash machines. And, they\'re using a faux presidential campaign as the greatest PR stunt ever pulled off the United States. Look at all of Trump\'s decisions. None of them are what a serious candidate for the presidency would do. All of them are what con would do to hook and reel in the marks and suckers. So, what happens if Trump wins? No problem. Trump resigns and Pence become president. Does anyone seriously think Trump is going to turn over the management of his businesses to a blind trust? Not on your life.

If Trump feels a "Mexican judge" is going to be biased against him, then there are legal avenues for him to explore that would provide reprieve.

Here\'s what you need to know: (1/x) 1) NSA traces and targets malware C2 servers in a practice called Counter Computer Network Exploitation, or CCNE. So do our rivals. 2) NSA is often lurking undetected for years on the C2 and ORBs (proxy hops) of state hackers.

Rare public data point on the positive results of the leak.** --- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- Only a state has the power to leak NSA\'s weapons left on a server. I agree with Snowden\'s assessment that it was Russia. His reasoning is that this is a warning to America. Before the FBI publicly announces those behind the DNC leak, Russia is warning the U.S. that they can prove the U.S. hacking into computers too. What surprises me most is how naive the West has become. We\'re being bombarded with leaks on an almost weekly basis now. Most people have probably focused on the DNC leaks, but did you know that a group calling itself "DCLeaks" leaked the internal documents of liberal George Soros\' Open Society Foundation AND the private emails of the NATO general? Here\'s a look at their [Twitter account](https://twitter.com/dcleaks_) (tell me if you notice their emphasis on a certain country): >Hacked NATO general defends plotting to push Obama to escalate tensions with Russia >Breedlove’s war: Emails show ex-NATO general plotting US conflict with Russia >Dangerous Propaganda: Network Close To NATO Military Leader Fueled Ukraine Conflict >Emails show Obama saw US involvement in Russia talks as a \'threat\' >\'Gen. plotted against Obama on Russia\' >Check George Soros\'s OSF plans to counter Russian policy and traditional values All they post are tweets relevant to Russia. [ThreatConnect Identifies DCLeaks As Another Russian-backed Influence Outlet](https://www.threatconnect.com/blog/does-a-bear-leak-in-the-woods/) Also, Russia hates NATO and Soros, which are the only topics the leaks from DCLeaks talk about. Russia is relying on naive Westerners to hate NATO and Soros. In other words, useful idiots. I see from /r/The_Donald that you people already hate Soros (links often lead to Russian disinformation websites) and think NATO should turn into a protection racket, ignoring basic hegemonic theory and forward deployment strategy of the U.S. near Russia and China. As an example, take a look at this conspiracy theory (and irrational) self post from /r/The_Donald: >[Is it just me or does it seem kind of funny that whenever there\'s emails leaked of people in the Clintons circle a shooting or riot comes up to distract people right after the leaks happen](https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/4xnree/major_leak_hurts_clinton_campaign_blm_riots/) And look at one of the more popular comments: >[Every single time. **This distraction brought to you by George Soros**](https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/4xnree/major_leak_hurts_clinton_campaign_blm_riots/d6h26dq) What\'s most interesting is that the Russians lost access to their hacked NSA computer June 2013 directly because of the actions of Snowden. Snowden claims that after he outed the secrets of the NSA, the NSA was forced to change the computers it uses for offensive operations, thus booting out the Russians too. **We now have proof of three leaks in mere weeks, all done by Russia, to influence Americans\' opinions on the 2016 election (pro-Trump), to hate NATO, to publicly embarrass the NSA and warn the FBI of the consequences of announcing Russia was behind the DNC leaks, and disinformation about Soros to lure Trump supporters. This is unprecedented in Western history - Cold War active measures are back. They are using fake personas - "Guccifer2.0", "DCLeaks", and now "The Shadow Brokers" - the NSA weapons leakers - to destabilize the U.S.** I\'d characterize this as more of a disinformation campaign rather than a cyberwar. Essentially, Russia is busy spreading conspiracy theories about the U.S. As an example, a pro-Russian hacking group calling itself "CyberBerkut" pretended to hack into John McCain\'s laptop when he visited Ukraine (McCain is demonized in Russian media for being harsh towards them). You\'ll never know what they pretended to leak: apparently, they filmed a fake video of some people pretending to be Jihadi John and James Foley filming his execution in front of a green screen! The hackers said they had exposed McCain and America\'s involvement in staging fake ISIS execution videos. But the good folks over at MetaBunk did a frame-by-frame comparison of the real execution video and the so-called "leaked" filming of the set. They found that the actor had different movements compared to the real JJ. Here\'s the full debunking: https://www.metabunk.org/debunked-cyberberkut-video-supposedly-showing-staged-isis-beheading-of-foley.t6520/ This "secret" video was prominently featured on InfoWars and Zerohedge. This fake hacking group, that literally makes fake videos and documents and then pretends to hack them from Western politicians\' computers, is without a doubt a Russian disinformation front group. Active Measures, as they called it back in the Cold War. This may sound cheesy, but the West doesn\'t do disinformation. Even during the Cold War, the side known for disinformation (Active Measures) was the Soviet block, not the West. Russia is an authoritarian country. It has no qualms paying thousands of people to spread pro-Kremlin propaganda online. Over the years, there have been countless reports of this happening. Heck, the unofficial Russian branch of Anonymous hacked the "Internet Research Agency" - a well known Russian troll farm - and leaked *everything* - emails, names, contact information, salaries, lists of troll accounts, assignments, you name it. Europe has set up some sort of media monitoring centre, called ["East StratCom Task Force"](http://disinfo.com/2016/01/disinformation-review-week-ten/), to counter Russian propaganda, that they created in March of 2015. It\'s one of the most pathetic and useless things I\'ve even seen. All they do is make a weekly .pdf file of Russia\'s lies and conspiracy theories Russian trolls try to spread online. They then upload said pdf file to some random corner of the web and call that their "response". Passive but not active. Assange doesn\'t care about the truth. He only cares at getting back at Clinton. He\'s been handed no less than 4 separate leaks in the past few weeks (DNC emails, Soros foundation\'s intranet documents, NATO general\'s emails, and NSA cyber weapons). He\'s a programmer just like me and Snowden. Heck, he\'s a genius programmer, or at least, he used to be back in the 1990s. He should be feeling suspicious about the large number of leaks regarding the U.S. But he hasn\'t publicly mentioned it - he knows it\'s Russia, but won\'t admit it. As an interesting aside, Guccifer2.0 claimed on Twitter [that he gave Assange the DNC emails](https://twitter.com/GUCCIFER_2/status/756530278982684672). If so, why is Assange spreading conspiracy theories about the dead DNC staffer, Seth Rich? Strange indeed. For now, read some of this history regarding Soviet Active Measures (relevant to our current situation): [Soviet Active Measures in the "Post-Cold War" Era 1988-1991](http://intellit.muskingum.edu/russia_folder/pcw_era/index.htm)', ">>{Refreshing_Beverage} : And yet [it's Trump who thinks we should send up to 30,000 ground troops back to Iraq.](http://www.cnn.com/2016/03/11/politics/donald-trump-30000-troops-isis/)", '>>{Irishish} : Silly OP, everyone knows RT and Breitbart are the last bastions of objective journalism. Everything else is owned by Shillary.', ">>{sweeneypng} : In terms of direct funding, the U.S. provided 22% of the NATO funding this last year. Which would mean that Europe (and Canada) are already paying more than the 70% figure you want. With indirect funding, the U.S. provides quite a bit more than the other countries, but that is mainly because the U.S. has a giant military with bases all over the world, and the same troops that are considered to be indirect funding of NATO are also being staged to deploy to Afghanistan or some other operation. The proportion of funding you are expected to provide for NATO is determined, as per the agreement, by the nation's GDP, which is why the U.S. has a larger contribution than, say, Estonia. Total U.S. funding last year was around $500 million, so it's hardly responsible for the $600 billion deficit.", ">>{MyWifeDontKnowItsMe} : A CNN article where he simply recites what generals have told him?

We have to knock out ISIS. I would listen to the generals, but I'm hearing numbers of 20,000 to 30,000. Good luck persuading people of Trump's prudent and sober judgment when it comes showing how tough he is. He can't even handle twitter trolls without getting his jimmies rustled!

But the good folks over at MetaBunk did a frame-by-frame comparison of the real execution video and the so-called "leaked" filming of the set. They found that the actor had different movements compared to the real JJ. Here\'s the full debunking: https://www.metabunk.org/debunked-cyberberkut-video-supposedly-showing-staged-isis-beheading-of-foley.t6520/ This "secret" video was prominently featured on InfoWars and Zerohedge. This fake hacking group, that literally makes fake videos and documents and then pretends to hack them from Western politicians\' computers, is without a doubt a Russian disinformation front group. Active Measures, as they called it back in the Cold War. This may sound cheesy, but the West doesn\'t do disinformation. Even during the Cold War, the side known for disinformation (Active Measures) was the Soviet block, not the West. Russia is an authoritarian country. It has no qualms paying thousands of people to spread pro-Kremlin propaganda online. Over the years, there have been countless reports of this happening. Heck, the unofficial Russian branch of Anonymous hacked the "Internet Research Agency" - a well known Russian troll farm - and leaked *everything* - emails, names, contact information, salaries, lists of troll accounts, assignments, you name it. Europe has set up some sort of media monitoring centre, called ["East StratCom Task Force"](http://disinfo.com/2016/01/disinformation-review-week-ten/), to counter Russian propaganda, that they created in March of 2015. It\'s one of the most pathetic and useless things I\'ve even seen. All they do is make a weekly .pdf file of Russia\'s lies and conspiracy theories Russian trolls try to spread online. They then upload said pdf file to some random corner of the web and call that their "response". Passive but not active. Assange doesn\'t care about the truth. He only cares at getting back at Clinton. He\'s been handed no less than 4 separate leaks in the past few weeks (DNC emails, Soros foundation\'s intranet documents, NATO general\'s emails, and NSA cyber weapons). He\'s a programmer just like me and Snowden. Heck, he\'s a genius programmer, or at least, he used to be back in the 1990s. He should be feeling suspicious about the large number of leaks regarding the U.S. But he hasn\'t publicly mentioned it - he knows it\'s Russia, but won\'t admit it. As an interesting aside, Guccifer2.0 claimed on Twitter [that he gave Assange the DNC emails](https://twitter.com/GUCCIFER_2/status/756530278982684672). If so, why is Assange spreading conspiracy theories about the dead DNC staffer, Seth Rich? Strange indeed. For now, read some of this history regarding Soviet Active Measures (relevant to our current situation): [Soviet Active Measures in the "Post-Cold War" Era 1988-1991](http://intellit.muskingum.edu/russia_folder/pcw_era/index.htm)', ">>{Refreshing_Beverage} : And yet [it's Trump who thinks we should send up to 30,000 ground troops back to Iraq.](http://www.cnn.com/2016/03/11/politics/donald-trump-30000-troops-isis/)", ">>{sweeneypng} : In terms of direct funding, the U.S. provided 22% of the NATO funding this last year. Which would mean that Europe (and Canada) are already paying more than the 70% figure you want. With indirect funding, the U.S. provides quite a bit more than the other countries, but that is mainly because the U.S. has a giant military with bases all over the world, and the same troops that are considered to be indirect funding of NATO are also being staged to deploy to Afghanistan or some other operation. The proportion of funding you are expected to provide for NATO is determined, as per the agreement, by the nation's GDP, which is why the U.S. has a larger contribution than, say, Estonia. Total U.S. funding last year was around $500 million, so it's hardly responsible for the $600 billion deficit.", ">>{MyWifeDontKnowItsMe} : A CNN article where he simply recites what generals have told him?

That\'s fucking pathetic.', ">>{pirate_simon} : Because it isn't right to tax citizens half of their paychecks. People should keep most of what they earn", '>>{RammingIntoChicks} : Because we are taxed too much and we spend too much. Cutting both just seems like a logical choice.', ">>{theSofterMachine} : The republican party is what's pathetic. I have no problem with conservatives but they're anything but. They whine about taxes and guvment but they have no problem wasting taxpayer money on stupid shit meddling in people's lives like trying to pass laws on where transgender people can take a shit.", ">>{RammingIntoChicks} : I'm still absolutely dumbfounded that this man didn't get more support in the primaries.", ">>{hey-be-rational} : Or... wait for it... That's what you read about, because that is what you like to read, or hear, or see on the news. And so they feed it to you. They feed it to you until you are so full you could almost puke. And then you do puke, and the result is this comment or more like it. Thanks for playing. I keep it real, no need to thank me.", ">>{Alphamonkey1} : No, he said he hates that he is one. He didn't say he hates republicans.", ">>{escalation} : The Republicans have blown up many a budget on wars and military spending. It's like saving a couple bucks on the grocery bill by not eating out and then going and buying a new motorcycle which you plan to wrap around a tree.", ">>{escalation} : It's called responsible budget management. Everyone else would rather run up the credit cards.", '>>{BakingTheCookiesRigh} : Me too. The media and big idiot characters like Trump draw the lazy gaze of millions while people actually trying to get shit done for the good of Americans are ignored. Thank God he is still Senator of Kentucky and young still.', ">>{gokuuu} : the entire world laughs at republicans, they're a joke", '>>{Just23breathe} : Also a great deterrent from Trump getting surprise assassinated. No big-bank globalist would put the money up for a hit if Rand would be standing there to take the reigns. That being said, I still think Sessions is going to get the VP nod.', '>>{Just23breathe} : Republicans and Democrats are basically just the right and left wing of the Globalist Party. Rand goes against most of that philosophy so he was going to be ignored anyway much like his father was. Where Trump succeeded where Rand and Ron failed is that Trump is a master of persuasion and was able to captivate the nation the quickest and longest.', ">>{Chuck419} : I love Rand but he could get more done in the senate than as VP. The VP really doesn't have much power, they vote in the senate if there is a tie and wait around for the president to die.", '>>{Chuck419} : The reason the NC passed the bathroom law was because the mainly liberal Charlotte city council passed an ordinance saying you could use whatever bathroom you want.

Ten billion more. This includes equipment replacement. Now, remind me what the combined costs of the war in Iraq and Afghanistan were, and how much quantative easing we had to do to make the numbers sorta work?', ">>{sshan} : That is just a very different system of government. It really just comes down to a value judgement. It is if you think that certain things should be provided to all people in a rich country. Once you say some sort of baseline elderly retirement plan, medical care, roads, police, ambulance, military, plus misc services of natural monopolies (ie hurricane forecasting) you have to tax a lot. It's fine if you don't want that but in the end democracy....", '>>{MammalMolester} : Because he has the same attitude towards the globalists that Truml does. The only difference is that Trump new how to crash the system.', ">>{ashstronge} : He ran a terrible campaign. If he had been more on message and trumpeted positions like these, I think he could have been far more competitive. I think he tried to appeal to social conservatives (I.e. 'Baltimore's main problem is single parents') and his main message was that he was against Hillary (and later Trump). I think he would have made a fantastic nominee, but his primary campaign was pretty terrible.", ">>{MammalMolester} : Tbh I think it's more important for him to get the VP spot and put libertarian politics on the national spotlight and to influence Trump's policies when he wins the election (with Hillary presumptive, it's guaranteed).", '>>{ztsmart} : The president America needs but not the one it deserves', ">>{theswerto} : If it were that easy to assassinate a president Obama would have been killed, or Bush, or Clinton, or the other Bush. There's a reason why there hasn't been a successful assassination since Kennedy.", ">>{theswerto} : Socially 'liberal' and Fiscally conservative does not a make a left politician, definitely more left than Rand, but still not left.", ">>{liberationation} : Well he's not left like Bernie Sanders, but he's in favor of some manner of social safety nets, civil rights legislation, environmental protections, etc. that's what makes him more left-*leaning*.", ">>{theswerto} : Social safety nets with no way to pay for them because he refuses to be in favor of a government large enough to fund them. Talk is big when you aren't willing to follow through on it. Bernie couldn't even afford what he wanted and he wanted to raise taxes across the board.", ">>{rightseid} : Trump is also willing to stick to republican talking points way more than either Paul and as outlandish as trumps antics are, his positions don't land nearly as far outside of mean stream republicans as the Pauls.", '>>{masonsherer} : I was watching a Collegehumor video and when they were talking to Adam he said government is by the people for the people; since most Americans suck we are getting just what we deserve.', ">>{liberationation} : We aren't talking about the effectiveness of his proposals right now, only that what he proposes is more left leaning than right.", '>>{masonsherer} : libertarians are also for closing tax loopholes too. We would have much more money if google and apple paid more than 2% income tax. plus a huge reduction in spending on other areas would allow lower taxes and more money for the few social programs most Americans support.', '>>{masonsherer} : To be fair I would take an anarchist party over the GOP.', '>>{theswerto} : His proposals are complete lies if he\'s doing everything in his power to undermine them with his other proposals. That\'s like saying "I WILL CUT TAXES" but propose a 10% increase to defense spending. That isn\'t how it works, that isn\'t how any of this works. If you want small government, you can\'t have social safety nets or anything. On a nation the size of the US the government *needs* to be large. Could it be more efficient? Yes, but going full libertarian is stupid.', ">>{liberationation} : You consent to your rate of taxation that year by electing politicians who either raise or lower your taxes. If they didn't do what you wanted them you vote in someone else.", ">>{liberationation} : I'm not interested in having this debate right now, I have made that abundantly clear already. Jerk off to pictures of Mao elsewhere.", ">>{theswerto} : Because I'm against Libertarianism I'm a communist? Such an intelligent counterpoint. You sure showed me.", ">>{liberationation} : You clearly love large and efficient government? What's more efficient than mobilizing your entire nation toward starvation? Less people means less people suffering… Central planning will never work.", ">>{lightfive} : Yes he tried to outconservative the conservatives while disappointing his libertarian base. There's a respectable chunk of Republicans that have libertarian leanings in some areas. He should have courted those people. He's already a libertarian moderate and basically what the Republican party in 21st century should be. Maybe they'll learn after giving away this year's election.", '>>{lightfive} : I think it\'s a smart move to not associate with Trump to be honest. Best case scenario for Rand would be Hillary winning this year and him staying in the senate. So he can continue sponsoring legislation and run against Hillary in 2020. Maybe I\'m biased though, he\'s an ophthalmologist and I want him to use the slogan "20/20 - perfect vision for America" in 2020.', ">>{lightfive} : Big L Libertarian normally means he's a part of the Libertarian Party which he is not. He has libertarian leanings though.", ">>{theswerto} : It isn't a two option system. It isn't libertarianism *or* communism. There are other options such as a socialist-capitalist state (like we have now, like pretty much every western nation has, actually) there's far more socialist systems for smaller countries like a couple of the nordic countries, etc. etc. It isn't an either or thing. Libertarianism doesn't work with a nation the size of the US. Cutting restrictions and taxes and shrinking the government is just fast tracking us for a terrible dystopian future ala cyberpunk settings where corporations become the de facto government.", ">>{LookingToLoseItAll} : > You consent to your rate of taxation that year by electing politicians who either raise or lower your taxes. That's some crazy mental gymnastics. What other choice do I have? It's practically impossible to move to another country without going through years of paperwork, and it's pretty much impossible to escape high taxation anywhere in the world anyways. There's no consent at all. If I decide not to pay taxes, the government can throw me in jail. It's coercion.", ">>{liberationation} : No one is forcing you to earn an income, no one is forcing you to buy things from stores. You can move out to the wilderness of Nowhere, USA and live off the land if you don't want to pay taxes. Of course then you also won't benefit or participate in any of the services the government provides.", ">>{LookingToLoseItAll} : > You can move out to the wilderness of Nowhere, USA and live off the land if you don't want to pay taxes. I can still be subject to property tax or local taxes. The only way this would work, and this is something for which I have been advocating, is if individuals could declare themselves a sovereign nation. So they don't get any of the benefits of government, but they can live without harassment.", '>>{ac3raven} : One nice thing about living in Kentucky is that I can vote for this man in November. He toes the party line more often than a truly honest person should, but its still worth having him in the Senate.', '>>{ashstronge} : Yeah, I think he could have really transformed the Republican Party, had he not tried so hard to please all of the republican base. I hope the next time he runs, he takes that into consideration. Like I said before, he would be a fantastic nominee and probably could have beaten Clinton with ease.', '>>{kiaryp} : What if the politician that I voted for isn\'t elected? This sounds like a collective bargaining agreement that I didn\'t explicitly sign up for. I think it\'s more comparable to a very large mafia organization that comes around and collects money from businesses and people in return for "protection" and occasionally uses a small portion of that money as kickbacks to the communities (in particular the poor communities which need less to gain the support of) in order to gain some public support.', ">>{Semper_OFP} : Rand Paul's brand of libertarianism is extremely moderate... The President rarely has the power to make sweeping changes. All he wants to do is begin to scale things back and make things voluntary. Corporations are already the government bubs. If you give a body of government the authority to tax and regulate, someone will always try to buy that authority. Our argument is that you cannot buy authority that does not exist.", '>>{crusoe} : You still benefit from roads, schools etc. Feel free to move to Liberia.', ">>{crusoe} : Well really that's more outlawry.

The state dies with the person.", '>>{kiaryp} : Yeah, like I said the Mafia also has kickbacks to the masses.', '>>{Attorney-at-Birdlaw} : All spot on, why we blew up the ticket with Trump.', '>>{Attorney-at-Birdlaw} : The problem is the majority of liberal policies are far from a democratic decision, specifically the ACA which was rammed through congress.', ">>{thelizardkin} : This, he's considerably more conservative than his father Ron.", '>>{thelizardkin} : Idk it depends on how much you make, we could tax some people at 99% and they would still make more than a lifetimes worth of money in a year.', '>>{Just23breathe} : The reason being that Kennedy was our last nationalist president.', '>>{sshan} : Pretty sure when you look at polling people broadly want things like SS and Medicare at least for those people they see as deserving.

Also likely concessions on Ukraine and whoever else he wants to invade, as well as reducing and likely eliminating any sanctions against russia for whatever reason. My guess is that through a false narrative and or false flag attack that assad may have given US terrorists chemical weapons to use on US soil, and or an attack of some kind with that weapon on US soil... which pretty much cements that plan and will get a lot of republicans on board and likely a few dems...

Also likely concessions on Ukraine and whoever else he wants to invade, as well as reducing and likely eliminating any sanctions against russia for whatever reason. My guess is that through a false narrative and or false flag attack that assad may have given US terrorists chemical weapons to use on US soil, and or an attack of some kind with that weapon on US soil... which pretty much cements that plan and will get a lot of republicans on board and likely a few dems...

As someone else in the other thread for this article asked: "Even if they are biased, does that make everything they say wrong?" Yes, they are wrong. I do not like Clinton but you can bet your ass that if the delegate totals were reversed I wouldn\'t be ignorantly dismissing the wishes and concerns of those who voted for Clinton. This author is ignorant, arrogant, and yes, wrong. It\'s incredibly ironic that they talk about political realities while completely dismissing the reality of Sanders\' movement. For this person to be even half way correct the sentiment among the millions of people who have voted for Sanders, many of whom represent the majority of the future of the Democratic party and progressive wing of the country, will have to completely disappear. Considering that\'s not going to happen, again, they are wrong. > Sanders’s path to the Democratic presidential nomination is essentially nonexistent. His only hope rests on convincing Democratic “superdelegates,” nearly all of whom back Hillary Clinton, to swing his way. They will not do that. It is incoherent for Sanders to ask them to do so, given that he has attacked superdelegates as non-democratic actors in the nominating process and that Clinton will almost certainly end the cycle with more votes and more pledged delegates. The message this author is trying to convey is not the reality of the delegate math, it\'s that Sanders is politically insignificant, which is simply false. Who cares if they got a few facts correct when they in no way prove their point? It\'s hardly relevant and the fact that they didn\'t get literally everything wrong down to simple facts doesn\'t add legitimacy to their message.

Honestly, I think that\'s where the disconnect comes between people like you and the people that are still supporting Bernie Sanders, some of which still donate to his (most likely over) campaign. To you, he was running like every other candidate and he should be happy playing "Politics as Usual" and get the token crumbs that are usually handed out in this way. The people that support Bernie Sanders **don\'t like** that sort of deal making. They don\'t want Bernie to just "take a better job and shut up". Presumably, he would lose a lot of support by doing just that. They want a candidate who continues to fight for what they think is right. >Sure HRC isn\'t perfect but IMO a million times better than Trump. That\'s *your* opinion and the opinion of many millions of people but there are probably millions of people that think you are wrong. Just like you said, that\'s an opinion (a view not necessarily based on knowledge or judgment) so people will just agree to disagree. >Her voting record is 92% the same as Bernie but the Burnbros make her out to be the spawn of satan. So we have two issues here. Last one first, you continue to flame the fires between the two camps by calling them the derogatory name "Burnbros" and then complain that they don\'t join with you. I don\'t know whether it is purely trolling or just inconsistency with your message, but it won\'t get the desired effect that the article claims to want. The second issue is that the number 92 and the percentage 92% doesn\'t mean a whole lot by itself. Humans and Chimpanzees share 99% of our DNA, but we *are* significantly different. Hell, even Humans and Bananas share 50% of our DNA which *is* a lot but many people would probably be surprised that it is so similar. So lets look at how that number was calculated. I\'m willing to bet the person who came up with that number (which is widely posted) did the most amateur job possible and simply calculated it based purely on how many times their votes differed and were the same. Is this accurate? Yes, but I would argue that it is *probably* not accurately **weighed**. After all, *what* is voted on is what matters. If Bernie and Hillary both voted the same on 99 issues and then Bernie (for example) voted to turn America into a 1984-style Government and Hillary didn\'t, you would be right to point that out and say "The 99% is misleading because one of these candidates wants to turn America into a Dystopia!". Now, obviously I don\'t believe that the record has been THAT misleading. That\'s just an extreme example. So lets take a look at a few actual votes between the two. Hillary accurately (and sometimes inaccurately) pointed out the Brady Bill, Bernie has many times pointed out the vote for the War in Iraq... which, by the way can I just mention how sad it is that Democrats are considering nominating someone that not only supported it but admitted to doing so without even looking at the justification for it? Honestly, it is one of the biggest foreign policies blunders in recent American History and we\'re voting for someone who not only voted for it but didn\'t even read the reasoning behind it? Before sending people to die? Anyways, there are other examples, like Dodd-Frank and such. Clearly, for Bernie AND Hillary supporters, these things are *large* issues and many people have strong opinions about these things. So when you say "Forget about the 8% difference!", that\'s like telling people to forget about the Brady Bill, or forget about the Iraq War, or forget about Bank Regulation or Campaign Finance Reform, etc. >Bernie has no realistic shot at winning the nomination and he keeps dragging this out, which helps no one but Trump and the Republicans. Now, I agree that with everything as it is today it is *very* unlikely that Bernie Sanders will win the nomination. As someone that believes in Democracy and not saying the results are in before the vote, I won\'t say he\'s lost but it is certainly very likely. That being said, waiting until every state has voted and going to the convention is well within his right and he should not be *shamed* for it. As for your second part about helping Trump and Republicans, I hope you can expand on this more. Why -exactly- does political discourse *within* a party help the Republicans? Shouldn\'t we flush out as many issues with both candidates as early as possible, and discuss why each of us hold these positions? What -exactly- is Bernie Sanders doing that is helping Trump that is Bernie Sanders\' fault?', '>>{monkeypack} : But how about that protruding camera though!!?', ">>{_jerky} : I honestly have no idea what goes on in people's heads to dismiss someone like Sanders the way they do.

But if you look at Trump in the primary, he wasn\'t really talking about much policy. It was all mission statement. "Make America Great Again!" Yeah! That sounds like a great goal! How do we get there? Now he is just reading the same Republican Playbook * Cut income taxes. * Get rid of regulations. * Implement import tariffs. * His childcare proposal is a joke because allowing a tax deduction on childcare is meaningless if someone\'s tax liability is already near zero.

What will be interesting to see is if the so-called *bump* in the polls for Clinton materializes when/he Sanders is out. I believe he will continue to the convention where she will become the nominee. Prominent Democrats and the media are of the same theory; Sanders supports will come around and vote for Clinton. They cite the PUMA's of 2008, who said they'd never vote for Obama but in the end circled the wagons in favor of the party. I believe they are wrong. What they haven't factored in is the power of the insults that have been hurled on the internet. It's been way beyond 2008. I think what we have seen on reddit, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat will have had a strong impact on whether or not Sanders supporters go for Clinton.

Well, good governing requires some distance between the happenings and the public because it is too easy for the public to fuck up *anything no matter how non-political it is*.

The quotes were along of the lines of, "How can you play basketball with that [man]?!" (They didn\'t say "man.") It is just a game of pick up basketball that is slotted into the President\'s very busy schedule. It isn\'t policy negotiation. > Their lies are not always clear, and they can cover themselves up, as Clinton has been accused of doing. At least with Trump he is not trying to be deceptive, perhaps from his own incompetence. Trump is (1) bad at lying and (2) has terrible policies. There is no rational argument to put him in a position to make it easier to implement those policies. * Stop-and-frisk is not just unconstitutional, it will increase the number of surprise interactions between police and men of color. That increase will cause a correlative increase in the number of police shootings of unarmed men of color. That will make tensions worse in this country. * Getting rid of the estate tax (a tax that applies to only 0.2% of estates) is stupid. Taxing after death is the least inconvenient tax because **the person is dead**. * Wants to rubber stab Paul Ryan\'s tax plan. Clinton is sincere in wanting to increase taxes and all the good that could do. She won\'t get all of the tax increases she wants.

The Democratic Primary is not over and the Republican Primary is so there is no doubt that much of the attention will be on the individuals on the Democratic Party.

This author is ignorant, arrogant, and yes, wrong. It\'s incredibly ironic that they talk about political realities while completely dismissing the reality of Sanders\' movement.

His only hope rests on convincing Democratic “superdelegates,” nearly all of whom back Hillary Clinton, to swing his way. They will not do that. It is incoherent for Sanders to ask them to do so, given that he has attacked superdelegates as non-democratic actors in the nominating process and that Clinton will almost certainly end the cycle with more votes and more pledged delegates. The message this author is trying to convey is not the reality of the delegate math, it\'s that Sanders is politically insignificant, which is simply false.

To you, he was running like every other candidate and he should be happy playing "Politics as Usual" and get the token crumbs that are usually handed out in this way. The people that support Bernie Sanders **don\'t like** that sort of deal making. They don\'t want Bernie to just "take a better job and shut up". Presumably, he would lose a lot of support by doing just that. They want a candidate who continues to fight for what they think is right. >Sure HRC isn\'t perfect but IMO a million times better than Trump. That\'s *your* opinion and the opinion of many millions of people but there are probably millions of people that think you are wrong. Just like you said, that\'s an opinion (a view not necessarily based on knowledge or judgment) so people will just agree to disagree. >Her voting record is 92% the same as Bernie but the Burnbros make her out to be the spawn of satan. So we have two issues here. Last one first, you continue to flame the fires between the two camps by calling them the derogatory name "Burnbros" and then complain that they don\'t join with you. I don\'t know whether it is purely trolling or just inconsistency with your message, but it won\'t get the desired effect that the article claims to want. The second issue is that the number 92 and the percentage 92% doesn\'t mean a whole lot by itself. Humans and Chimpanzees share 99% of our DNA, but we *are* significantly different. Hell, even Humans and Bananas share 50% of our DNA which *is* a lot but many people would probably be surprised that it is so similar. So lets look at how that number was calculated. I\'m willing to bet the person who came up with that number (which is widely posted) did the most amateur job possible and simply calculated it based purely on how many times their votes differed and were the same. Is this accurate? Yes, but I would argue that it is *probably* not accurately **weighed**. After all, *what* is voted on is what matters. If Bernie and Hillary both voted the same on 99 issues and then Bernie (for example) voted to turn America into a 1984-style Government and Hillary didn\'t, you would be right to point that out and say "The 99% is misleading because one of these candidates wants to turn America into a Dystopia!". Now, obviously I don\'t believe that the record has been THAT misleading. That\'s just an extreme example. So lets take a look at a few actual votes between the two. Hillary accurately (and sometimes inaccurately) pointed out the Brady Bill, Bernie has many times pointed out the vote for the War in Iraq... which, by the way can I just mention how sad it is that Democrats are considering nominating someone that not only supported it but admitted to doing so without even looking at the justification for it? Honestly, it is one of the biggest foreign policies blunders in recent American History and we\'re voting for someone who not only voted for it but didn\'t even read the reasoning behind it? Before sending people to die? Anyways, there are other examples, like Dodd-Frank and such. Clearly, for Bernie AND Hillary supporters, these things are *large* issues and many people have strong opinions about these things. So when you say "Forget about the 8% difference!", that\'s like telling people to forget about the Brady Bill, or forget about the Iraq War, or forget about Bank Regulation or Campaign Finance Reform, etc. >Bernie has no realistic shot at winning the nomination and he keeps dragging this out, which helps no one but Trump and the Republicans. Now, I agree that with everything as it is today it is *very* unlikely that Bernie Sanders will win the nomination. As someone that believes in Democracy and not saying the results are in before the vote, I won\'t say he\'s lost but it is certainly very likely. That being said, waiting until every state has voted and going to the convention is well within his right and he should not be *shamed* for it. As for your second part about helping Trump and Republicans, I hope you can expand on this more. Why -exactly- does political discourse *within* a party help the Republicans? Shouldn\'t we flush out as many issues with both candidates as early as possible, and discuss why each of us hold these positions?

If they don\'t, then they are no better at getting things done than the sidewalk preachers yelling at passing people. You are right about the record. 8% can be a huge difference and probably is. The point i was trying to make (and failed) was for the Sander fans who keep threatening to jump to Trump if their man doesn\'t get the nomination. Sanders does not play the negative game, but Sander\'s people sure as hell do. Look at the front page and 92% (see what i did there) of stories about how unfit HRC is. This divide of course helps trump. Keep the negative narrative about HRC as long as possible is exactly what the Trump wants (see poll numbers changing between HRC and DT). Most sanders supporters are focused on anything negative about HRC, they have completely ignored Trump (most true in reddit). Trump and Sanders supports will upvote anything negative about HRC, Trump supporters downvote anything negative about Trump, so FP is filled with negative narrative for HRC. I am sure this applies outside reddit which will help DT campaign.', ">>{Heiminator} : What does it say about Sanders if people don't vote for him over Hillary even though they think he is more honest?

Keep the negative narrative about HRC as long as possible is exactly what the Trump wants (see poll numbers changing between HRC and DT). We still have almost half a year until the election. The nomination will wrap up in a few months, one way or another and most of the party will solidify. I doubt that people within the party airing their grievances will create a permanent effect for the General Election. Truth be told, the Primary is the only time when the party members *need* to be open about them. They certainly aren\'t going to do so in the General Election and during the rest of that cycle people will say "Bring it up when it matters, reelection!" >Most sanders supporters are focused on anything negative about HRC, they have completely ignored Trump (most true in reddit). Trump and Sanders supports will upvote anything negative about HRC, Trump supporters downvote anything negative about Trump, so FP is filled with negative narrative for HRC. I am sure this applies outside reddit which will help DT campaign. The Democratic Primary is not over and the Republican Primary is so there is no doubt that much of the attention will be on the individuals on the Democratic Party. Just because the Republicans quickly nominated a buffoon does *not* mean that the Democrats should rush through this as well. It is part of our society to generally believe that rational discourse is preferable to a rush to judgment. Until the Primary Process is over, we should worry more for making sure the Democratic Party has the best possible candidate fully vetted before shifting the focus.'], [">>{BobSeton} : Project Veritas: We've Hit The Tipping Point, Elite Are in Panic Mode: James O'Keefe", ">>{mortfeinberg} : Yeah dude, I'm sure the elites are shaking in their boots because a known con artist won an election.

There are newer better education models emerging. Maybe ask way, when you want a computer science degree, you should spend 20,000 a year to learn about outdated languages and tools and meanwhile waste a bunch of time on humanities, french, and history that you\'re only going to forget (source: I was in college, I can barely recall any spanish or latin) when the state has already provided 13 years of general education. >…you\'re against big money in politics, and specifically Citizens United: Johnson says corporations should give as much money as they want, as often as they choose, to whomever they please.

Johnson has said he\'d prefer no agreement but in the real world TPP does more good than harm. >...you think the minimum wage is too low: Johnson thinks this is a "non-issue" – because, as he has wrongly claimed, hardly anyone works for minimum wage. Yeah, its 3.9 percent that make at or below (more than half make below meaning they\'re either kids working summers in a family business or they also make tips which means they actually make more than minimum wage). Only 2 percent of full time workers are at or below minimum. And percentages drop as you get older because if you\'re worth anything, your experience gets you a promotion, a raise, or a better job elsewhere. >...you support paid medical and family leave: "I would be opposed to that," In other words, he would be against forcing employers to take a chunk out the compensation they\'ve already earmarked for the position and setting it aside for a benefit the employee didn\'t necessarily want and could get now if they wanted by continuing to put in applications. None of these "benefits" are real increases in compensation, they\'re just forced inflexibility in compensation packages. >...you think we should have virtually any reasonable restrictions on the purchase and ownership of guns: "I don\'t believe there should be any restrictions when it comes to firearms. None," This is the correct answer. And "reasonable" is a meaningless buzzword in this context. "Reasonable" means whatever you want it to mean so dispense with the semantics. >...you think the Affordable Care Act serves an important purpose, and you\'d like to see it preserved: In 2011, Johnson swore he would repeal Obamacare. Its an abject failure. We lost our doctors in spite of promises. Premiums have gone up, insurance companies have ducked out.

Given all the convoluted rules states have about getting onto ballots, thats a huge boost for 2020. Second, its going to be more. FiveThirtyEight has noted that Johnson is bucking the trend in terms of holding onto his voters (third party polls often drop closer to election time but its not happening here) and could see a gain after Trump\'s terrible week. We know that there are a fair number of voters in both parties who would vote libertarian if they didn\'t feel bound by the lesser evil argument. If enough bad stuff happens to one or the other (more bad debates, more wikileaks) that could shake some of those people loose to vote for Johnson. Third, Johnson is polling well among Millenials (hence the recent Millenial targeted articles) and if you look at indepth polling (like the 2014 Reason Rupe Survey) it turns out that Millenials are less socialist than you might think. When you remove the terms "socialism" and "capitalism" and just talk about stuff, they favor capitalism in substantially greater numbers. So as time passes, this points to growing support for the movement. As to which issue, I think the Republicans could make huge gains if christian conservatives could be convinced to not put our religion at the top of the agenda. And I think a lot of them could. I was one, and I know a lot of christian conservatives who are open to that. There is a strong argument to be made for that. After all, we don\'t need God etched on everything, we just need the freedom to practice our faith. Enforcing our religious values is soulless and hollow. God made us free so we could choose Him, so why deprive anybody of that choice? Once that argument is made, the Republicans could focus on fiscal conservatism and liberty, which I think would be a winning combination.', ">>{ahx-fos} : I think you misunderstand what a credit 'score' is.

But critics do nothing more than invoke them as boogeymen. As if Trump or Clinton isn't on the take. I remember Johnson was asked a ridiculous question during the Libertarian primaries about whether he would have dropped the bomb on Hiroshima. His response was that he didn't know, which didn't sit well with Libertarians in the room. But its because, of all the people on that stage, Johnson was the only one with any governing experience (its hard to find unless you're importing from the other parties). And I think he recognizes that you need to be in the situation sometimes before you make the decision. I think Johnson has an open mind and he knows that as President he'd have more information than he is privy to now.", ">>{KingDragonlord} : Its a fair point. Johnson emphasizes the similarities he has with the left and right, but a critic can emphasize the differences. I think Johnson is the closest we get to putting the brakes on things and seeing if we can't come up with better candidates in four years. But really all I'm counting on is Johnson securing enough of the vote for one party or the other to wake up and shift its policies to try to win us back. We get stuck with a bad president in the short term (which seems like a given at this point) but we get at least one improved party to fight back with in the long term.

"I would not believe that colleges or universities should be free," Pumping more money into a bloated wasteful institution (which is what the "free" would be doing) is only going to make it more bloated and wasteful. There are newer better education models emerging. Maybe ask way, when you want a computer science degree, you should spend 20,000 a year to learn about outdated languages and tools and meanwhile waste a bunch of time on humanities, french, and history that you\'re only going to forget (source: I was in college, I can barely recall any spanish or latin) when the state has already provided 13 years of general education. >…you\'re against big money in politics, and specifically Citizens United: Johnson says corporations should give as much money as they want, as often as they choose, to whomever they please. You want it on the books or under the table? Those are your only real choices. I\'d prefer to know who is giving what to who. >...you\'re against fracking: Johnson thinks we ought to be doing more of it. Yup. Until the alternatives are ready for primetime. We\'re already past the point where the carbon problem is going to have to be solved by scrubbing, not conserving. >..you\'re against the TPP: Johnson supports it. Why are you on about this? Its an agreement for everyone to play fair in an open economy. Johnson has said he\'d prefer no agreement but in the real world TPP does more good than harm. >...you think the minimum wage is too low: Johnson thinks this is a "non-issue" – because, as he has wrongly claimed, hardly anyone works for minimum wage. Yeah, its 3.9 percent that make at or below (more than half make below meaning they\'re either kids working summers in a family business or they also make tips which means they actually make more than minimum wage). Only 2 percent of full time workers are at or below minimum. And percentages drop as you get older because if you\'re worth anything, your experience gets you a promotion, a raise, or a better job elsewhere. >...you support paid medical and family leave: "I would be opposed to that," In other words, he would be against forcing employers to take a chunk out the compensation they\'ve already earmarked for the position and setting it aside for a benefit the employee didn\'t necessarily want and could get now if they wanted by continuing to put in applications. None of these "benefits" are real increases in compensation, they\'re just forced inflexibility in compensation packages. >...you think we should have virtually any reasonable restrictions on the purchase and ownership of guns: "I don\'t believe there should be any restrictions when it comes to firearms. None," This is the correct answer. And "reasonable" is a meaningless buzzword in this context. "Reasonable" means whatever you want it to mean so dispense with the semantics. >...you think the Affordable Care Act serves an important purpose, and you\'d like to see it preserved: In 2011, Johnson swore he would repeal Obamacare. Its an abject failure. We lost our doctors in spite of promises. Premiums have gone up, insurance companies have ducked out. We never gave the market a chance. >...you want private for-profit prisons gone: Johnson supports private, for-profit prisons There\'s nothing fundamentally wrong with that idea. Johnson talked about reforms in response to recent reports of abuses. And as he pointed out, the number one opposition to the legalization of marijuana in California came from the public prison employees union.', ">>{KingDragonlord} : And pressure from the outside is the best hope of that happening. If they keep getting votes, we'll keep getting lipservice.", '>>{gogeauxgadgetpirogue} : Problem is, those republicans that are socially liberal are generally neocons so they are still very much pro-war', ">>{DAVEYDYK} : Well it's gonna also be hard to pull many Democrats to the far right on economics", ">>{DAVEYDYK} : I mean if you got like 5% of the vote, which issues do you think could realistically fit in each party that wouldn't lose them votes from their core base?", '>>{spoiled_generation} : > I just love that Clinton is spending millions to discredit Gary Source?', '>>{KingDragonlord} : Well first, 5% means you\'re automatically on the ballot next time. Given all the convoluted rules states have about getting onto ballots, thats a huge boost for 2020. Second, its going to be more. FiveThirtyEight has noted that Johnson is bucking the trend in terms of holding onto his voters (third party polls often drop closer to election time but its not happening here) and could see a gain after Trump\'s terrible week. We know that there are a fair number of voters in both parties who would vote libertarian if they didn\'t feel bound by the lesser evil argument. If enough bad stuff happens to one or the other (more bad debates, more wikileaks) that could shake some of those people loose to vote for Johnson. Third, Johnson is polling well among Millenials (hence the recent Millenial targeted articles) and if you look at indepth polling (like the 2014 Reason Rupe Survey) it turns out that Millenials are less socialist than you might think. When you remove the terms "socialism" and "capitalism" and just talk about stuff, they favor capitalism in substantially greater numbers. So as time passes, this points to growing support for the movement. As to which issue, I think the Republicans could make huge gains if christian conservatives could be convinced to not put our religion at the top of the agenda. And I think a lot of them could. I was one, and I know a lot of christian conservatives who are open to that. There is a strong argument to be made for that. After all, we don\'t need God etched on everything, we just need the freedom to practice our faith. Enforcing our religious values is soulless and hollow. God made us free so we could choose Him, so why deprive anybody of that choice? Once that argument is made, the Republicans could focus on fiscal conservatism and liberty, which I think would be a winning combination.', '>>{gogeauxgadgetpirogue} : I think theyre equally Sisyphean tasks, no reason to deviate our message to hope they move as most people are still stuck in the two party myth', ">>{DAVEYDYK} : But the problem with the libertarian platform is it won't have a big enough base if continues to have views so far to each side.

If he really started getting coverage in this election, how do you think people across both parties would respond to: Switching to a fair tax, ending the IRS and the Fed, Pro TPP, open borders, privatizing healthcare, education and prisons, Cutting the budget by 43%, abolishing the min wage, changing child labor laws, legalizing Marijuana (and he has said all drugs in the past), making big cuts to the military, Pro choice, Pro gay marraige, anti union, and against spending money on global warming.

Petersen will be ready in 2020.", ">>{KingDragonlord} : Millenials are more free market than you think. Reason-Rupe did an in-depth survey back in 2014 and found that Millenials actually like capitalism more when you don't use that word and instead just describe the features. They also like social programs until you add in the costs. The shift is substantial. Basically, the more educated they get, the more they like a soft libertarian position. And a lot of the support for Bernie wasn't principled support either. They were just in it for change. They just know that the current direction isn't working so they want some kind of big change, and libertarianism and socialism both represent that.", ">>{DAVEYDYK} : Ya I don't disagree with that. I just think when you look at the debates and candidates can attack those positions, it could make it very hard for a libertarian. At the very least, I think libertarians need a much better candidate than Johnson. But ya you are right, if the main thing people want is change, they can vote for anything whether they agree with the views or not. I mean shit Trump is the nominee based on being an outsider alone.", ">>{KingDragonlord} : > At the very least, I think libertarians need a much better candidate than Johnson. I think now that I know where you're coming from, I agree with you. Johnson isn't really sharp enough to sell libertarianism, even his own softened brand (that isn't really libertarianism) is a bit of a strain for him to sell in terms of his public speaking skills. Weld could do it. I think he's the smartest person left in the race. And its clear that he could also walk either of us through the reasons why the TPP is actually a good idea (as he believes). But he's also even less libertarian than Johnson. Clearly though, its Weld's intelligence and Johnson's humility that leads Johnson to emphasize that Weld is going to be co-president.", ">>{DAVEYDYK} : Ya I really like Weld, I wish he was on top of the ticket. He wouldn't be having these Aleppo moments. But I would actually consider voting libertarian if they softened even more than Johnson. I know they wouldn't be real libertarians anymore, but I just can't get on board with their basically tea party economics.

Trump and Clinton both are going to make it worse.', ">>{DAVEYDYK} : It depends on what you are talking about as far as making it worse. I do believe their economics would bring higher GDP growth, but it also does that by ignoring a lot of other issues people want addressed. Would a totally privatized healthcare system make healthcare more affordable for people? Maybe, maybe not. Would lot's of deregulation help businesses grow, most likely, but how much would it increases the chances of another bubble? And with very few safety nets in place if it did, couldn't we see the kinds of poverty we saw in the great depression? Would the policies help with inequality? We don't really know how the market will react to no min wage or labor protections, and having nothing in place to stop the rich from not spending and accumulating massive amounts of wealth. You also have to think of the 3 million employees of the federal government, how long would it take them to find further employment. What about all the lawyers, accountants, regulatory advisers that Johnson says we would no longer have any need for, will there be jobs for them? My point is while their system may well be the best system, a lot of it is mostly theory, and Economics has many other factors that play into it, like human behavior.", ">>{KingDragonlord} : >We don't really know how the market will react to no min wage or labor protections, We don't know what effect any of our economic policies will have, and yet the government continues to think it can design society.

Note also that King is there with Wilders, the rightist, racist Dutch member of parliament and Frauke Petry, the rightist, nationalist leader of Germany\'s Alternative for Germany party. These are the parties Trump\'s top advisor Steve Bannon wants to help loft to power and ally with in a rightist, north Atlantic political movement. >This isn\'t just one "controversial" member of Congress. **King is part of American white nationalist, far-right political movement**. That\'s not a softer way to say "racist." He\'s also a racist. But there are plenty of racists who have more conventional politics. **He\'s part of a movement. So is Bannon. So is Trump.** Never forget this.', ">>{CarmineFields} : The whole Republican Party is rotten with white nationalism. It's what the party has stood for for years now.

You might get away with that if you're willing to pay a monthly fee for more iCloud storage, and then use iCloud Photo Library, which stores the master copies of your photos on iCloud, and downloads low-res versions suitable for your screen size to your phone. But I'd suggest holding off and saving some money for more storage if at all possible > How does the music transfer work? Do I need to use iTunes or is there a way around that? There are lots of 3rd party apps which have a variety of different ways of getting music onto your phone. iTunes is required for moving music from your computer to the built-in Music app, but I think only a minority of people would still do it that way > How is the picture quality? Right now I have Samsung Galaxy s4 mini and I'd like a phone with at least just as good camera as this one has. The camera is excellent, but I've never used the Galaxy so I can't compare. > Does the phone have issues after being used for a while, e.g. is slower, battery life has decreased,overheating etc? Every Android phone I've had had this issue, which is why I'm thinking of switching. It will slow down if you update to the latest version of iOS every time it gets updated. If you read this forum, you'll find that for each major update, many people will report whether it slows the device down or not. But you can expect at least 2 or 3 years of updates with minimal if any slowdown > I know it is not possible to uninstall the preinstalled apps, to which extent does this cause issues? How much of the memory do they take? There's no way of knowing how much memory they each take. Most people just hide them away in a folder and ignore them > If there are any former Android users here, was it difficult to get used to the operating system?

It means judging an entire religion as terrorists and banning a bunch of countries that haven't committed a single terroristic act in the United States (one Somalian guy got stabby once. No one died.

I haven't run into overheating issues, but I didn't on my Z3C either other than extended video recording, which I haven't yet tried on the iPhone. * Anything that uses GPS like fitness trackers seems to use a lot less battery life than it does on Android, which is really nice. * The reddit apps available for iOS are terrible compared to Android. That's actually a plus for me, since it means I waste less time on reddit when I should be doing other things. * I still have a *lot* of trouble getting used to the OS. It's not hard to use exactly, but it's a lot messier than the modern (5.x+) Android UI, and I find I need to be far more precise in my taps and gestures on iOS. * Notifications work differently on iOS - this may or may not be an issue for you depending on your preferences. Personally I don't like it, as it's much easier for me to accidentally miss notifications. * Battery life is actually lower than my Sony Z3C was overall, but it's more consistent if that makes sense. My Z3C lasts longer in idle and basic activity, the iPhone lasts somewhat longer when using things like GPS or camera. Admittedly, the Z3C has unusually high battery life for Android. * I have the 64GB model, so I can't really speak to storage. I highly recommend using something to upload the photos so you don't need to keep them on the device, such as Dropbox or Google Photos, both of which offer more free storage (especially Google) than iCloud.", '>>{mayaisme} : >there are no widgets There are, located in the Notification Center, accessible from within any app', ">>{brucensb} : I've made the same change and heres my 2 cents: * I have a 16GB model because I store everything on the cloud, google play music, google drive, icloud etc, so I always have about 6GB free space. I stream all my media with unlimited data and I don't have any games installed. * I transfer my music with Google Play Music because I have to pay to use apples wireless music sync service. Google gives me 50,000 songs for free and its as painless as uploading it on my computer and having it available everywhere. * I used to have a Z5 Compact, which took multiple 20MP photos and sampled them into a single 8MP photo. I think the iPhone 5s took photos onpar with the Z5 compact. * I haven't had the 5s that long but a friend I know has had it for a year and it is still running as quick as it always did. iOS is very well optimised for older devices. * The phone doesn't give me too much data but I think the preinstalled apps take up less than 50MB, its hardly anything. * It's very easy to get used to the operating system from Android. It's similar in the aspect that you can swipe left on the home screen to get contextual info like current news and weather. Swiping from the top gives you notifications, but unlike android to get quick settings you swipe from the bottom.", '>>{TheApoplasticMan} : That is an example not a definition. Bigotry is defined as "intolerance toward those who hold different opinions from oneself." Therefore if you are intolerant of those who want to retain a waspy culture then by definition you are the bigot. If someone is intolerant of Muslim\'s they are a bigot. If someone wants to limit Muslim immigration that does not make them a bigot, limiting migration is not necessarily intolerance.

No, bannjng immigrants because your country isn't white enough hurts people directly. Being brown in a country that King wants white, does not. Even other republicans are calling it racist.

As a politician, I question his ability to do his job and represent all Americans. Also, it's not bigotry to refuse to accept bigotry, racism or beliefs that hurt others.

Where did any other subgroup of people contribute more to civilization?” . >On September 2015, on Muslims and immigration: “Why would you do this if you were president of the United States? [Obama is] seeking to change the demographics of the United States of America. And changing the demographics changes the politics, they’re going to have Democrat voters at least two-to-one, some numbers go all the way to five-to-one, and I’m not speaking only of Muslims, I’m speaking of the Central American immigrants that come into America too. … So if it turns into a few hundred thousand every year, how long is it before the culture of America is changed?” . >On August 2015, on whether America owes apologies to other places for slavery: “[Obama] apologized to Africa for slavery and genuflects to the Arabic princes and genuflects to the emperor of Japan, and it goes on and on. Americans are tired of apologizing, Ox. We’re a proud people. We’re the vigor of the planet and there’s nothing for us to apologize for until they come and thank us for the things we’ve done.” . >On July 2013, on undocumented immigrants: “Some of them are valedictorians — and their parents brought them in. It wasn’t their fault. It’s true in some cases, but they aren’t all valedictorians. They weren’t all brought in by their parents.

First and foremost, has anyone in the MRM requested funds in that politician's district or through their office?", ">>{TheApoplasticMan} : I'm not conflating issues, was it legit for example for HRC to advocate for women's issues given she was a woman and she is thereby advocating against alternative uses of funding?", ">>{CarmineFields} : She didn't say she wouldn't provide equal money to men's issues. It's okay to talk about issues that affect one demographic. It's not okay to state that you want to exclude other demographics.", ">>{TheApoplasticMan} : So I suppose programs to give loans to female run businesses were going to be matched by those explicitly ear marked for men? They weren't tho were they? Did you oppose Hillary disproportionately supporting women's issues during her campaign?

But you can expect at least 2 or 3 years of updates with minimal if any slowdown > I know it is not possible to uninstall the preinstalled apps, to which extent does this cause issues? How much of the memory do they take? There's no way of knowing how much memory they each take. Most people just hide them away in a folder and ignore them > If there are any former Android users here, was it difficult to get used to the operating system? I do like the ability to personalise the phone, but I don't do it to the extent of installing mods or rooting the phone, I pretty much just use the weather and music widgets and change the background. Can't help you with that since I've always used iOS.", ">>{doggscube} : I bought my wife a 6s for our anniversary. I have no music or videos on my phone and I have 27 gb used right now. 16gb is effectively unusable and apple shouldn't sell that size anymore. I got her a 64gb. There are no widgets. iOS is very easy to use and you shouldn't have a problem. I switched from years of android last October and I've been happy.", ">>{LondonPilot} : Off the top of my head, I think around 12Gb is available.... but I haven't looked at a fresh 16Gb model for a while, so someone might come along with a more accurate estimate if I'm wrong.", '>>{phwelo} : I switched from a 32g nexus 6 to the iPhone 6 with 16gb. I take photos and videos of my kids somewhat infrequently and constantly battle with the 16g size. In the other hand, the camera is significantly better in regards to speed and quality', ">>{dblake15} : I would always get my wife the 16gb and she would pretty much take pics and get in Facebook. She was constantly bumping into storage is full errors. So I got her the 64gb and no more problems and she can take as many pics as she wants. The rumor is for the iPhone 7 they will finally get rid of 16gb and go 32. We'll see", '>>{jdr30} : I take a lot of pictures as well and 16GB is not an issue for me as I have Google Photos app installed. When you take a picture it sends it off into google\'s cloud (unlimited storage is provided) and there is an option within the app to delete the photos from you phone which are synced to google photos. So every week or so I do that and clean up my phones storage. The app is better than the iPhone "Photos" app and allows grouping, searching, sharing, etc. just as well if not better than the native app.', '>>{Nachtwolfe} : > then use iCloud Photo Library, which stores the master copies of your photos on iCloud, and downloads low-res versions suitable for your screen size to your phone Or just use Google Photos since its free.', '>>{dblake15} : Yeah use google photos and it is fantastic. But you have to manually go in and have it sync and then free the space. Just get the bigger model and less headaches', ">>{phwelo} : I've long since maxed out my free space on Google, Dropbox, and iCloud. Currently syncing photos to mega", '>>{rayhussain} : Google photos offer free backup service for iOS camera roll', '>>{phwelo} : If you\'re into "high res" vs "original" or whatever, sure', ">>{NerdDood} : I got a 6 plus two months ago. 16gb I think I had 10 or 11gb free right out of the box I hover between 7 and 8 free right now. I use Google Photos to store my pictures in the cloud for free (they let you store unlimited photos if under 15mb per picture). I also have unlimited data so it's not a big deal for me. I also use an app called Battery Doctor that clean anything that's been cached. I find when I stream music it caches information but I run battery doctor every couple days and I'm good. People who say the 16gb versions are not usable are wrong. Manage your stuff through the cloud whenever possible :)", ">>{retsotrembla} : I've always bought 16gb iPhones, and always been happy with them, never running out of storage. But - I sync regularly with iTunes on a Mac, while the phone is charging, and I move stuff off the phone I'm not using that week.", ">>{noratat} : My experience with the iPhone 6 after having used only Android: * Camera quality is excellent - better than all but the flagship phablets on Android. I haven't run into overheating issues, but I didn't on my Z3C either other than extended video recording, which I haven't yet tried on the iPhone. * Anything that uses GPS like fitness trackers seems to use a lot less battery life than it does on Android, which is really nice. * The reddit apps available for iOS are terrible compared to Android. That's actually a plus for me, since it means I waste less time on reddit when I should be doing other things. * I still have a *lot* of trouble getting used to the OS. It's not hard to use exactly, but it's a lot messier than the modern (5.x+) Android UI, and I find I need to be far more precise in my taps and gestures on iOS. * Notifications work differently on iOS - this may or may not be an issue for you depending on your preferences. Personally I don't like it, as it's much easier for me to accidentally miss notifications. * Battery life is actually lower than my Sony Z3C was overall, but it's more consistent if that makes sense. My Z3C lasts longer in idle and basic activity, the iPhone lasts somewhat longer when using things like GPS or camera. Admittedly, the Z3C has unusually high battery life for Android. * I have the 64GB model, so I can't really speak to storage. I highly recommend using something to upload the photos so you don't need to keep them on the device, such as Dropbox or Google Photos, both of which offer more free storage (especially Google) than iCloud.", '>>{mayaisme} : >there are no widgets There are, located in the Notification Center, accessible from within any app', ">>{brucensb} : I've made the same change and heres my 2 cents: * I have a 16GB model because I store everything on the cloud, google play music, google drive, icloud etc, so I always have about 6GB free space. I stream all my media with unlimited data and I don't have any games installed. * I transfer my music with Google Play Music because I have to pay to use apples wireless music sync service. Google gives me 50,000 songs for free and its as painless as uploading it on my computer and having it available everywhere. * I used to have a Z5 Compact, which took multiple 20MP photos and sampled them into a single 8MP photo. I think the iPhone 5s took photos onpar with the Z5 compact. * I haven't had the 5s that long but a friend I know has had it for a year and it is still running as quick as it always did. iOS is very well optimised for older devices. * The phone doesn't give me too much data but I think the preinstalled apps take up less than 50MB, its hardly anything. * It's very easy to get used to the operating system from Android. It's similar in the aspect that you can swipe left on the home screen to get contextual info like current news and weather. Swiping from the top gives you notifications, but unlike android to get quick settings you swipe from the bottom.", ">>{mgroot} : I don't know the price difference between the two where you are, but I'd definitely check out the iPhone SE's price. That way you're getting a new phone (as in the internals) and not a nearly three year old one. I'd not be surprised if some of the new features in iOS 10 (whatever they might be) won't be supported on the 5S anymore", ">>{LokiKamiSama} : The android os on my LG tablet is complete crap. I hate how it operates, the layout, how to find things, how to delete apps, how to customize it and so on. Apple is much more user friendly. That being said, I love PC's and HATE Mac's.", '>>{TheJedinator} : How!? What do you have 27GB of????', '>>{idea_seeker} : I switched to iPhone from Android and hated it. At the first opportunity, a year later I went back to Android. IPhone is so restrictive. File transfers and moving stuff between apps and devices is a long process and frustrating. IPhones only have good hardware: the camera, build and processor. But their software - iOS - is shit.', '>>{Myfeelingsarehurt} : [Mine] (https://imgur.com/a/h17He) is mostly videos pics and movies', ">>{codemonkey85} : For what it's worth, whatever compression they're using is super, super good. Android Police [did a comparison a while back](http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/09/12/deep-dive-google-photos-not-grandmas-photo-album/) and the difference was nearly imperceptible.", '>>{IIIRUCKUSllI} : The software is actually the smoothest least buggy experience out of ios android and windows mobile. But yes it is definitely restrictive.', '>>{aristideau} : Just curious if you have ever used OS X?. I am a developer and was offered an late model air for relatively cheap (primarily to use for browsing / media watching). I was wary because I just assumed that it would be an underpowered toy, but was surprised at how fast it was. I now do all my development on my air (all my tools are available on OS X). The GUI is very intuitive and the complete lack of having to download drivers was a unexpected bonus. I have supported a friends W8 machine and it literally took minutes to find anything.', ">>{IhasTaco} : Same boat but mine is mostly hardcore porno It's just one continuous video that takes up 27gb I'm only 12 hours in", '>>{TheJedinator} : But u/doggscube stated no movies or audio......', '>>{LokiKamiSama} : I have not tried OS X. Mostly because I don\'t own a Mac (I can have a more powerful PC for a fraction of the cost, not to mention a larger screen. I was spoiled a long time ago by purchasing a Sony Vaio, 18.4" laptop. Not many companies make even close to that large of laptops). I will say the OLD OLD OLD OLD Apple computers were fun (I\'m talking the ancient Apple II\'s. I miss Oregon Trail and Number Muncher). I still can\'t get over having to "throw away" the disk to get it to eject. Really, how hard was it for Apple to include an eject button? Yes...I am bitter and set in my ways.', '>>{aidbal42} : If youre concerned about photos taking up too much space get Google Photos']]

In fact, all it does is increase the discount on premiums for participating in an employer-sponsored wellness program from 30% to 50%, a 66% increase, while defining Nondiscriminatory Workplace Wellness Programs (which if I\'m not mistaken are NOT defined in the ACA). If you\'re just noticing the disclaimer at the bottom regarding the collection of genetic information, you really need to go read up on the Affordable Care Act. The bill in question here is [H.R.1313](https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/1313/text), and it\'s well hyper-linked. Here\'s the bit the clickbait thread title is referring to: > Collection of information.—Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the collection of information about the manifested disease or disorder of a family member shall not be considered an unlawful acquisition of genetic information with respect to another family member as part of a workplace wellness program described in paragraph (1) or (2) offered by an employer (or in conjunction with an employer-sponsored health plan described in section 2705(j) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 300gg–4(j))) and shall not violate title I or title II of the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (Public Law 110–233). For purposes of the preceding sentence, the term “family member” has the meaning given such term in section 201 of the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (Public Law 110–233). All it states is that the collection of information does not violate Title I or Title II of the 2008 Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act. But the collection of information was already protected in both GINA and in the ACA. All this really does is highlight what was already standard practice. It doesn\'t even expand it. And it DOES NOT allow employers or insurance providers to do anything they weren\'t already allowed to do. Which is to say, your employer was already forbidden from discriminating against you on the basis of "genetic information." In GINA and the ACA, they\'re free to discriminate against you on the basis of "non-genetic information," which could be paraphrased as "observed instances of \'disorder.\'" In the context, I read disorder to include "mental health issues." And the ACA already protects insurers rights to increase your premiums on the basis of collected genetic information. I did a whole post on this here several days back. I guess the LA Time didn\'t catch it. H.R.1313 showcases how we should be reforming the ACA, by highlighting it\'s more damaging elements and having a discussion about it.

In fact, all it does is increase the discount on premiums for participating in an employer-sponsored wellness program from 30% to 50%, a 66% increase, while defining Nondiscriminatory Workplace Wellness Programs (which if I\'m not mistaken are NOT defined in the ACA). If you\'re just noticing the disclaimer at the bottom regarding the collection of genetic information, you really need to go read up on the Affordable Care Act. The bill in question here is [H.R.1313](https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/1313/text), and it\'s well hyper-linked. Here\'s the bit the clickbait thread title is referring to: > Collection of information.—Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the collection of information about the manifested disease or disorder of a family member shall not be considered an unlawful acquisition of genetic information with respect to another family member as part of a workplace wellness program described in paragraph (1) or (2) offered by an employer (or in conjunction with an employer-sponsored health plan described in section 2705(j) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 300gg–4(j))) and shall not violate title I or title II of the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (Public Law 110–233). For purposes of the preceding sentence, the term “family member” has the meaning given such term in section 201 of the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (Public Law 110–233). All it states is that the collection of information does not violate Title I or Title II of the 2008 Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act. But the collection of information was already protected in both GINA and in the ACA. All this really does is highlight what was already standard practice. It doesn\'t even expand it. And it DOES NOT allow employers or insurance providers to do anything they weren\'t already allowed to do. Which is to say, your employer was already forbidden from discriminating against you on the basis of "genetic information." In GINA and the ACA, they\'re free to discriminate against you on the basis of "non-genetic information," which could be paraphrased as "observed instances of \'disorder.\'" In the context, I read disorder to include "mental health issues." And the ACA already protects insurers rights to increase your premiums on the basis of collected genetic information. I did a whole post on this here several days back. I guess the LA Time didn\'t catch it. H.R.1313 showcases how we should be reforming the ACA, by highlighting it\'s more damaging elements and having a discussion about it. But the Republican bill itself is benign.

It forces congressional incentivized workplace wellness programs to comply with laws already on the books - and not the other way around by creating new ones. Compliance with laws that protect the employee. It keeps data collection from over-reaching and forces employers to provide an viable alternative path and time frame to an employee should they refuse to comply. Meaning - it protects employees from an overzealous company that over reaches. Creating an alternative to allow the employee to refuse is a good thing. It prevents a business from threatening a person's job, while not penalizing the employer for having an employee refuse to participate. How is that not a good thing.

[[">>{SATexas1} : I never thought I'd find myself supporting a strong Germany leading Europe But here we are Germany needs to stand strong, work closely with the French and be the pillar of the EU. They need to keep NATO relevant, and maybe that means those countries do need to increase their spending on defense.", ">>{bontesla} : NATO serves a functional purpose. It's useful for NATO allies especially when it comes to enforcing/levying sanctions outside of the UN. However, NATO is compromised of powerful countries who have a history of unsanctioned military and covert operations in less powerful countries. I think NATO justly deserves criticism for how it's being used. Trump is correct to criticize NATO but he is unable to make the moral/ethical argument because, ultimately, he doesn't disagree with the behavior. His objection is how that behavior is being utilized. This leads back to Trump's campaign in a nutshell. He *almost* sounds like a populist when you only examine some his criticisms. That delusion falls apart when you hear his solutions.", ">>{ComradeTaco} : Russia is working overtime to make sure all of those efforts are undermined.

Add a mixture of economic anxiety and you've got a nice neo-nationalist ruling coalition sympathetic to Russia. Russia is playing a brilliant game right now. Help the alt-right take power, exit NATO and the EU. In exchange, the alt-right turns a blind eye or even applauds continuous annexation by Russia in the east. Once annexation starts, the newly fragmented power structure of Europe will be helpless to collectively resist. The Ukraine, Belarus, Latvia, Estonia, all stand in the immediate path of Russia. It was only 26 years ago that Soviet tanks departed. It may be only 27 before they return. And if you have doubts: Look at the comments that will follow at the bottom of this article.

No matter what we're going to have to re-think the way we view work and its value. I mean what happens when say 10% of the population wants to work but there's just nothing for them to do anymore?", ">>{Inlander} : The thing about UBI is it allows you to de-stress and follow your passions. Look at some of the great inventions of our time, and it (UBI) would allow that inventiveness 10 fold. The right people for the right jobs. Also our government cannot stop off shoring, but they can take away the incentive of tax breaks that have been removed from the conversation long ago. This could be reversed, but I'm a little leery of constantly giving tax incentives for companies that do not deserve shit! Talking to you Comcast."]]

My 9-year-old son could make fun of Trump in clever ways, and does so routinely. For Clinton to fixate on Trump’s endless flaws suggests that her own platform has little substance. For example, in a recent speech she said of Trump, “He says he has a secret plan to defeat ISIS. The secret is, he has no plan.” While these kinds of statements might make for funny one-liners, Clinton’s main credential is that she once led the State Department, and she did so with such hawkishness that Americans who are weary of endless wars are not impressed by the experience. (Not to mention that she was caught telling lies about her private email server while secretary of state.)

Clinton's tax plan is one that would minorly change this (taxing wages is a drop in the bucket for actual rich people). Her court appointments could change Citizens United, then campaign finance reform, then gerrymandering. The rich rule, I agree, but I do think one party actually wants to change things. Healthcare: 'We' don't want it because Americans companies are making a shitload of money from it. Biotech is a fully entrenched industry. My understanding of the ACA is that the companies went full obstructionist. If there was a single-payer then negotiations would dramatically reduce costs, like it is in every other 1st world country.

Nunes also has roots in the Azores, and before Valadao got elected a few years ago, was the only one of them in living memory to make it to higher office. He is their golden child. He could probably kill a dozen puppies on live television, and they'd still vote for him.

I\'m a constitutionalist and a realist. If a Congressional representative can\'t do his job and would rather do some other job, then he ought to quit and do the job he wants to do. I\'m sure President Trump could use a good lawyer. I\'m not sure that Representative Nunes is up to the task. For one thing, the lawyer must be an officer of the court and can\'t bow beyond reason to the wishes of their client. President Trump is not a mature person. In this light, if Representative Nunes actually were President Trumps attorney, It is remarkable that someone as immature as President Trump could have influence over Represntative Nunes. Otherwise I\'d say to Representative Nunes "go for it." But don\'t muddy your name and try to entice others to follow your lead and completely betray the people of the United States. "We The People" are the ones who require representation. I\'m certain that Billionaire Trump can find his own. >Nunes sits in one of the more secure seats in all of congress. But first, this keeps coming back to the idea that this is party.politics. If Nunes continues in this vein he won\'t be around. Period. To continue to fray the US Constitution into fragments of partisanship is a hopeless morass for Congressman Nunes. All this stuff about the Azores aside, I\'m quite familiar with the Portuguese and Jim Costa.

For example, in a recent speech she said of Trump, “He says he has a secret plan to defeat ISIS. The secret is, he has no plan.” While these kinds of statements might make for funny one-liners, Clinton’s main credential is that she once led the State Department, and she did so with such hawkishness that Americans who are weary of endless wars are not impressed by the experience.

Her court appointments could change Citizens United, then campaign finance reform, then gerrymandering. The rich rule, I agree, but I do think one party actually wants to change things. Healthcare: 'We' don't want it because Americans companies are making a shitload of money from it. Biotech is a fully entrenched industry. My understanding of the ACA is that the companies went full obstructionist. If there was a single-payer then negotiations would dramatically reduce costs, like it is in every other 1st world country.

Trump\'s original campaign issue was stopping terrorism. Then he shifted to stopping illegal immigration to block terrorists from entering the country. Then he shifted to deporting some illegal immigrants to prevent domestic terrorism (despite most cases of domestic terrorism being done by radicalized citizens). Then he shifted to deporting more illegal immigrants to prevent serious crimes like rape and murder (despite most of those crimes being committed by citizens). Then he shifted to deporting all illegal immigrants for technically being "criminals" by having committed unlawful entry, which isn\'t really a crime but rather an administrative violation that carries zero jail time. Legally, it\'s in the same class as failing to file an income tax return, which under federal law results in a fine but no jail time. Before people realize how far we\'ve slid from the anti-terrorism argument, all brown and black people are now subject to sudden and indefinite imprisonment in an ICE detention camp, regardless of their actual immigration status. With only a few judges to process them, they\'ll stay there for years until it can be verified whether a mistake occurred. This creates a huge artificial bias against investing in relations with brown or black people. Of course, it is still perfectly legal to form business or personal relationships with them, even if they have foreign-sounding names, but now the government itself is unnaturally mandating strong practical reasons to avoid investing any money, time, or emotion into such relationships. If the federal government can suddenly throw any of your minority relationships into open-ended limbo at any time, their message to you is "you\'re better off sticking with whites." So now whites have a big government-mandated incentive to associate only among themselves, and racial minorities have a big government-mandated incentive to value whites more and avoid other minorities. This unwritten apartheid will prepare Americans to accept formal apartheid, long before the first segregation bill gets introduced into Congress. It starts by deliberately worsening racial divisions and laying a heavy hand on everyone\'s First Amendment rights to freely associate with whomever we damn well please.', '>>{DomesticatedElephant} : Examples please.

This is ridiculous.', '>>{di11deux} : Gladly. Trump\'s candidacy is based on a few fundamental premises: that he\'s an outsider who will shake up the Washington establishment, which has grown out of touch with ordinary Americans, and that his record as a businessman is an indicator of his overall success in life. His willingness to say things society has deemed as taboo is also appealing to some. As to him shaking up Washington: he can\'t do that. He\'s not on a board where he has authority to fire whomever he wants or institute policies on a whim. The office of the President is inherently curtailed in terms of absolute power. He can make policy proposals, but what he ultimately needs is Congress to agree and support him. That requires working with the exact same Washington establishment he\'s spent the past 9 months shitting all over, and in a town like DC, people don\'t forget. What people also forget is that the political elites are elites for a reason. Joe Plumber doesn\'t write foreign policy proposals because Joe Plumber doesn\'t know what the fuck he\'s talking about. America is a democratic Republic, not a democracy, and we have always had elites in Congress acting as agents of the public. If you don\'t like the elites, then participate in your local elections; expecting a President to change that is foolish. His record as a businessman is also, all things considered, quite poor. The entire Trump brand is based on the idea of it being luxurious - when you buy Trump, you buy quality. But that\'s an illusion. The Trump brand is average, at best, stamped and marketed to lower income people to make them *feel* wealthy. Ever wonder why no rich people actually buy Trump brands? It\'s because compared to actual quality, Trumps brand is an imitation. And that\'s really the metaphor for this entire election: the illusion of Trump\'s superiority despite evidence telling you that, under the surface, what you\'re getting is actually shit. And that doesn\'t even touch on, you know, *actual policy proposals*. His foreign policy will alienate centuries-old allies by "making them pay" like we\'re running a fucking mafia protection racket, and his economic policies will instigate trade wars and make everyday consumer items more expensive. It\'s a fantastical idea that jobs will just appear because Trump told Mexico to go stuff itself.

Seriously -- this is the problem that trump supports don\'t seem to get. Finding something positive that withstands scrutiny and that isn\'t a complete fabrication is difficult. Let\'s see -- * Trump\'s going to make America great again: Ok, how? He can\'t tell you. That makes positive news kind of hard. * Trump\'s going to bring back jobs -- Again, how: by renegotiating trade deals and forcing companies to bring jobs back? Ok, but tell me what\'s positive about that: 1) can he actually do it and 2) assume he actually does -- what happens? A few people win, a whole bunch of people lose. Products become more expensive (losing jobs), foreign trade dies (losing jobs) resulting is economic slowdown (losing more jobs) and he won\'t do anything to help because government is bad so the slowdown becomes a depression. Honestly, it\'s like SouthPark the other day when they believed the Economy was angry at them and decided to punish them. * He\'s going to repeal Obamacare: Great - there go 16M people who currently have some form of insurance and now don\'t, hospitals close, and insurance costs continue to go up. The consequences are easy to predict. Does anybody remember how much insurance was raising every year for the decade before the ACA?-- That\'s probably not a positive news story. Heath insurance costs are increasing? No duh. They\'ve increased ever year that I\'ve been alive. From 2000-2005, they increased by double-digits. From 2006-2015, they increased by 4-6% more or less. The ACA was designed to keep the increases down, not to eliminate the increases. But we\'ve done nothing to fix anything in the ACA, so it\'s not surprising. But eliminating the ACA isn\'t going to stop the increases. It\'s always been funny to me that when you poll people about the provisions of the ACA, they\'re really popular until you actually call it "Obamacare" then the popularity goes to crap. We -- republicans and democrats -- should take a page from Arkansas (of all places). The politicians ran on a policy of eliminating the ACA. When they won, wonders of wonders, they found they couldn\'t actually do it without screwing a whole bunch of people. They did eliminate the ACA in Arkansas: They took the program, gave it a new name with exactly the same benefits, provisions, and structure -- and declared to the public that they had killed the ACA in Arkansas. And the people ate it up. * He\'s going to effectively wipe out the EPA -- he loves going after the EPA: Well, that\'s easy to predict: Hello Flint Michigan. Hello air pollution, hello water pollution. Again, a difficult story to put a positive light on. * He\'s going to reduce the size of government: He\'s going to do this in two ways: 1) he\'s going to decimate the revenues -- because it\'s hurting companies * He\'s going to bring companies\' money back... those ones with more money than ever before. I know -- they\'re going to bring all that money back from overseas and invest it. In what? Without demand for more products, why on earth would they invest in capital expenditures? The money\'s coming back, but it\'s going to get plowed into stock buybacks -- not dividends, they get taxed differently. Again, if you follow it through, it doesn\'t work. * He\'s also going to eliminate choking regulations. Well, how do you think we got all those regulations? Because people are just willy-nilly writing regulations for the sole purpose of choking business? Or maybe because somebody actually did something that the regulations are designed to prevent? So get rid of regulations and bad things start to happen again. You want to eliminate regulations? Pass better laws to begin with. Honestly -- I can keep going on and on.

Clinton is obviously a hawk, but had amble opportunity to lobby for nuclear strikes and there is no evidence she did. * Trump flies off the handle with 3am tweetstorms targeting anyone he believes has offended him. Clinton is, if anything, too reserved. * Trump has lied about so many tiny, venal things (remember the letter the NFL sent him?) that it\'s gotten to the point where his supporters *champion* the fact that you can\'t believe anything he says (see: nuclear weapons) * Trump\'s racism and sexism are blatant and not worth denying.

Trump\'s candidacy is based on a few fundamental premises: that he\'s an outsider who will shake up the Washington establishment, which has grown out of touch with ordinary Americans, and that his record as a businessman is an indicator of his overall success in life. His willingness to say things society has deemed as taboo is also appealing to some. As to him shaking up Washington: he can\'t do that. He\'s not on a board where he has authority to fire whomever he wants or institute policies on a whim. The office of the President is inherently curtailed in terms of absolute power. He can make policy proposals, but what he ultimately needs is Congress to agree and support him. That requires working with the exact same Washington establishment he\'s spent the past 9 months shitting all over, and in a town like DC, people don\'t forget. What people also forget is that the political elites are elites for a reason. Joe Plumber doesn\'t write foreign policy proposals because Joe Plumber doesn\'t know what the fuck he\'s talking about. America is a democratic Republic, not a democracy, and we have always had elites in Congress acting as agents of the public. If you don\'t like the elites, then participate in your local elections; expecting a President to change that is foolish. His record as a businessman is also, all things considered, quite poor. The entire Trump brand is based on the idea of it being luxurious - when you buy Trump, you buy quality. But that\'s an illusion. The Trump brand is average, at best, stamped and marketed to lower income people to make them *feel* wealthy. Ever wonder why no rich people actually buy Trump brands? It\'s because compared to actual quality, Trumps brand is an imitation. And that\'s really the metaphor for this entire election: the illusion of Trump\'s superiority despite evidence telling you that, under the surface, what you\'re getting is actually shit. And that doesn\'t even touch on, you know, *actual policy proposals*. His foreign policy will alienate centuries-old allies by "making them pay" like we\'re running a fucking mafia protection racket, and his economic policies will instigate trade wars and make everyday consumer items more expensive. It\'s a fantastical idea that jobs will just appear because Trump told Mexico to go stuff itself. Couple that with the fact that the man is a genuine asshole, and you have plenty of reasons why Trump would make a far worse president than Clinton. So please, take your downvote.', '>>{rankor572} : I do love how even this strong endorsement of Trump ends with "sure Trump is a roll of the dice." Literally the only reason they support him is because they don\'t know what he\'ll do.', '>>{saturnengr0} : Positive news: trump didn\'t grope anybody today. Seriously -- this is the problem that trump supports don\'t seem to get. Finding something positive that withstands scrutiny and that isn\'t a complete fabrication is difficult. Let\'s see -- * Trump\'s going to make America great again: Ok, how? He can\'t tell you. That makes positive news kind of hard. * Trump\'s going to bring back jobs -- Again, how: by renegotiating trade deals and forcing companies to bring jobs back? Ok, but tell me what\'s positive about that: 1) can he actually do it and 2) assume he actually does -- what happens? A few people win, a whole bunch of people lose. Products become more expensive (losing jobs), foreign trade dies (losing jobs) resulting is economic slowdown (losing more jobs) and he won\'t do anything to help because government is bad so the slowdown becomes a depression. Honestly, it\'s like SouthPark the other day when they believed the Economy was angry at them and decided to punish them. * He\'s going to repeal Obamacare: Great - there go 16M people who currently have some form of insurance and now don\'t, hospitals close, and insurance costs continue to go up. The consequences are easy to predict. Does anybody remember how much insurance was raising every year for the decade before the ACA?-- That\'s probably not a positive news story. Heath insurance costs are increasing? No duh. They\'ve increased ever year that I\'ve been alive. From 2000-2005, they increased by double-digits. From 2006-2015, they increased by 4-6% more or less. The ACA was designed to keep the increases down, not to eliminate the increases. But we\'ve done nothing to fix anything in the ACA, so it\'s not surprising. But eliminating the ACA isn\'t going to stop the increases. It\'s always been funny to me that when you poll people about the provisions of the ACA, they\'re really popular until you actually call it "Obamacare" then the popularity goes to crap. We -- republicans and democrats -- should take a page from Arkansas (of all places). The politicians ran on a policy of eliminating the ACA. When they won, wonders of wonders, they found they couldn\'t actually do it without screwing a whole bunch of people. They did eliminate the ACA in Arkansas: They took the program, gave it a new name with exactly the same benefits, provisions, and structure -- and declared to the public that they had killed the ACA in Arkansas. And the people ate it up. * He\'s going to effectively wipe out the EPA -- he loves going after the EPA: Well, that\'s easy to predict: Hello Flint Michigan. Hello air pollution, hello water pollution. Again, a difficult story to put a positive light on. * He\'s going to reduce the size of government: He\'s going to do this in two ways: 1) he\'s going to decimate the revenues -- because it\'s hurting companies * He\'s going to bring companies\' money back... those ones with more money than ever before. I know -- they\'re going to bring all that money back from overseas and invest it. In what? Without demand for more products, why on earth would they invest in capital expenditures? The money\'s coming back, but it\'s going to get plowed into stock buybacks -- not dividends, they get taxed differently. Again, if you follow it through, it doesn\'t work. * He\'s also going to eliminate choking regulations. Well, how do you think we got all those regulations? Because people are just willy-nilly writing regulations for the sole purpose of choking business? Or maybe because somebody actually did something that the regulations are designed to prevent? So get rid of regulations and bad things start to happen again. You want to eliminate regulations? Pass better laws to begin with. Honestly -- I can keep going on and on. If you only look at his plans very, very superficially you can find a lot of things to cheer about.

Trump\'s original campaign issue was stopping terrorism. Then he shifted to stopping illegal immigration to block terrorists from entering the country. Then he shifted to deporting some illegal immigrants to prevent domestic terrorism (despite most cases of domestic terrorism being done by radicalized citizens). Then he shifted to deporting more illegal immigrants to prevent serious crimes like rape and murder (despite most of those crimes being committed by citizens). Then he shifted to deporting all illegal immigrants for technically being "criminals" by having committed unlawful entry, which isn\'t really a crime but rather an administrative violation that carries zero jail time. Legally, it\'s in the same class as failing to file an income tax return, which under federal law results in a fine but no jail time. Before people realize how far we\'ve slid from the anti-terrorism argument, all brown and black people are now subject to sudden and indefinite imprisonment in an ICE detention camp, regardless of their actual immigration status. With only a few judges to process them, they\'ll stay there for years until it can be verified whether a mistake occurred. This creates a huge artificial bias against investing in relations with brown or black people. Of course, it is still perfectly legal to form business or personal relationships with them, even if they have foreign-sounding names, but now the government itself is unnaturally mandating strong practical reasons to avoid investing any money, time, or emotion into such relationships. If the federal government can suddenly throw any of your minority relationships into open-ended limbo at any time, their message to you is "you\'re better off sticking with whites." So now whites have a big government-mandated incentive to associate only among themselves, and racial minorities have a big government-mandated incentive to value whites more and avoid other minorities. This unwritten apartheid will prepare Americans to accept formal apartheid, long before the first segregation bill gets introduced into Congress.

He is sick of the argument that not voting for Clinton is a vote for Trump. >"I can imagine a four-year presidency under Hillary Clinton where she makes policy decisions that directly contradict things that I believe in," Fiato told CNN. "I don\'t want to have to be confronted with someone in the future who says, \'Well, you voted for Hillary Clinton.\'" This hit a little too close to home...', ">>{Quinnjester} : It's not over. The GOP is trying to suppress voters.", ">>{HonkeyTonker} : That's true, but I really would like Libertarians challenging Republicans locally, specifically because of their social stances.

Not with the number of eyes on them right now, thanks to Trump screaming about 'rigging.'", ">>{Quinnjester} : Still it's better to have a landslide against him than something like Obama vs Romney.", ">>{Infernalism} : I don't want to split hairs, but Obama's victory over Romney wasn't even close. It was a remarkably decisive victory. No landslide, no. But far from close.", ">>{Roryedd} : You're rewarding and solidifying a bad Democratic Party. Because you're scared of the next four years you're willing to set back real political change and honest representational government by decades. Don't sell out.", '>>{Infernalism} : He only looks good now in hindsight, in comparison to Trump. You all need to bear in mind that Romney is still a vulture capitalist who made his fortune buying other companies, selling off their assets and then firing everyone. This is a man who did this: http://www.nationalmemo.com/coal-miners-forced-to-attend-romney-event-lose-days-pay/', ">>{Wicked_Inygma} : What if that progressive platform to which she agreed just turns out to be empty campaign promises just like so many of Obama's empty campaign promises? Then what is the path forward?", '>>{Diet-Dr-Thunder} : Actually voting for Trump gives him one vote over Hillary while a write-in does not.', '>>{Shiari_The_Wanderer} : How about "I\'m scared of the next 100 years." Because that\'s how long his supreme court appointments and decisions are going to last. How long do you think it will take to get a Supreme Court willing to overturn Citizens United and reinstate the protections of Roe v. Wade and Obergefell v. Hodges?', '>>{Shiari_The_Wanderer} : As I stated, primary her in 2020. And don\'t blame Obama for "empty promises." He spent the first 2 years working on health care reform, and then in 2010 he was given the most obstructionist House and Senate in the history of the United States because "progressives" failed to show up and vote during midterms and subsequent elections.', ">>{Barron_Cyber} : This isn't short term thinking. This is long term. But a republican senate isn't going to do a damn thing about global warming, inequality, expanding healthcare, opening up higher education opportunities for more people, or approve the supreme court seats we want. I don't particularly like hillary. But at this point, between today and the election, this is the best path forward imho. The democratic party won't get a dime from me, and I gave a feeling a lot of mellienials feel the same way. However we can show our force when it matters.", ">>{reddit310} : Sometimes I wish I were white so I wouldn't have to deal with the fear of my mother being harassed by Trump supporters because she wears a hijab to work. Or not having to deal with the consequence of keeping a beard without some bigot giving me the middle finger because I'm brown and Muslim. While a Trump presidency may mean absolutely nothing to most Americans, people like me cannot afford a Trump presidency. And I say that as someone who voted for Bernie in the primaries. Sorry, I let you guys down.", '>>{Deadcharacter} : This! Progressives have to start voting consistently in MIDTERM elections. The president is not everything. President is not a savior. The Congress is the place where budgets are passed and laws are made. So VOTE', '>>{PixelBlock} : In all honesty, even the DNC was abandoning Obama during the midterms. Disillusionment with internal discord compounded by a poor support network doomed the entire operation.', ">>{PixelBlock} : Never seen Futurama? Neutrality is the ultimate crime. If you don't join in the crapfest, you must be the problem.", '>>{Deadcharacter} : Voting third party is like running away from a fight. Not taking responsibility for the potential outcome. Also, the "me, me, me" trope is driving me nuts. Hillary may not be Bernie, but actually she stands for protecting minorities and for immigration reform. I\'d rather be in solidarity with the latino community than be in it only for myself...', ">>{AlfredoJQuackus} : Don't you understand? The regressive leftist liberal media wants you to *believe* you're not a terrorist, but Alex Jones has proven you are one. It's just patriots *reclaiming* America and preventing *White genocide*. /s, obviously. Fuck the knowledge that people unironically believe this makes me want to puke.", '>>{TacosEveryCorner} : If the Dems take the Senate, Bernie becomes chair of the Senate Budget Committee.', '>>{Roryedd} : Hillary Clinton has benefited more from Citizens United than any candidate in history, and I think Trump actually supports campaign finance laws. I also think that the Supreme Court will not go against the will of the people and reverse Roe v Wade, even if Trump says he can to shore up evangelicals, or if Hillary says it would happen to scare progressives. I think gay marriage is also safe.', '>>{BrazenBribery} : You can vote however you want or not at all, it\'s not a responsibility nor something requiring apology. I say that as a fellow Muslim who hates, loathes, despises and will never ever forgive Clinton for her conduct during the primary towards Sanders and preceding the primary publicly as Secretary of State and privately amongst her oligarch donors. As a Muslim, you\'re concerned for your family and voting for Clinton against Trump. That\'s fine, but what about her vote for the Iraq War, her oppressive sanctions on Iran and her threat to "obliterate" Iran if they acted against Israel, her ownership of the NATO massacre of Libyans, her support for a no fly zone in Syria to oppose Russia even while she admits in private to her donors that it will kill Syrian civilians, her receipt of millions from oppressive Wahhabist Saudi countries into her fraudulent charity, her increased arms sales to those countries through the State Department which they use to quell uprisings and bomb neighboring countries like Yemen, her Zionistic speech to AIPAC and her apologetic stance towards Netanyahu? I don\'t blame people for voting for her despite all such misgivings i have about her. Those I *do* blame, however are people ignoring and denying such proven misconduct to justify their vote for her. Vote for her if you choose, but don\'t deny to yourself her proven misconduct, *especially* towards Muslims.', ">>{Barron_Cyber} : i dont think dws' time will be remembered fondly by democrats. im not blaming her in total, but before she took over they were gaining seats, on an upward track. than she took over and seemingly overnight the democratic party is in disarray. from 08 to 10 it seems like the wheels completely feel off any and all momentum they had. even in deep red states like washington. again im not saying it was all her, but as head of the dnc, the buck stops with her. i know the economy and cu helped fuck things up. but it seems internally the dnc wanted nothing to do with obama or bragging about the things they had accomplished and selling themselves to the average voter.", '>>{Barron_Cyber} : the problem with neutrals is that you never know where they are coming from.', '>>{nekurashinen} : > He only looks good now in hindsight, in comparison to Trump.

Pro-tip: if you’re going to claim your candidate has a highly contagious infection that caused her to pass out (after exhausting a bunch of other absurd excuses), don’t send her to the home of her vulnerable newborn granddaughter, then have her hug all over a little kid on the street while declaring how great she feels, then suddenly cancel a bunch of her events because she’s so ill.

After being checked and cleared by her physician, she is feeling ok now." Instead, her campaign went with, "she\'s overheated, but here, look at her hugging this kid, SHE FEELS GREAT, nothing to see here." *video and pictures showing her fainting and having neuro-examinations (squeeze my fingers) surfaces* Anyone with any medical training knows you don\'t ask someone to squeeze your fingers if you\'re overheated, it\'s literally to test motor functions after a stroke or concussion.

That\'s just like having polio? Here\'s the thing though, that\'s not the story they started with yesterday morning. That\'s the story they ENDED with after being called out on the problems with the first version of the story once more details came out. The first version of the story had her "overheat" then come back out on the street an hour later to give hugs to little kids and tell everyone what a beautiful day it was. It was an attempt to show that there was nothing serious going on and it was business as usual. Hell, they didn\'t announce the cancellation of her events until this morning. The story was changed ONLY when the videos of her wearing a jacket (if you\'re overheating, why not take off heavy clothing), getting neurological examinations (squeeze my hand, which has nothing to do with overheating), passing out, and being trucked off not to a hospital, but to her daughter\'s apartment.

I voted against her, donated to her opponent and campaigned for her opponent.

It's entirely possible, even likely I'd argue, that she has pneumonia, a symptom of which is fever, was out at this event sick in a jacket and bulletproof vest, overheated, feinted, was taken to a cool relaxing environment and then came out and gave her little speech, cringey fake hug and all. It sounds like she's going to release more medical records. I hope they're thorough and approved by a trusted source so we can all find out for sure what's going on. As for your questions, they wouldn't take off the jacket if she's overheating because them wearing kevlar isn't something they advertise or want people to witness for myriad reasons, the neuro test should be done to anyone pushing 70 who feints for any reason that isn't immediately known since it's simple, fast and comes with no risk at all, and her going to a private residence after makes sense as doctors can come to an apartment more easily than a presidential candidate can go to a hospital.", '>>{The_Nameless_King} : > It\'s entirely possible, even likely I\'d argue, that she has pneumonia I agree, but wait....let\'s take it one step further.

It sounds like she's going to release more medical records. I hope they're thorough and approved by a trusted source so we can all find out for sure what's going on.

I do not think the US should ask for the countries to pay for all the protection, but some money to alleviate the costs is not that far fetched of an idea in my opinion.

You may want to tell the Saudis to fuck off, and so do most Americans, buy they are a massive net gain for American business. They buy billions of dollars worth of American weapons, they invest billions more in the American economy, and they hold absolutely enormous amounts of American debt. If Trump tells them to go eat sand he would quickly find that he didn't have any friends in Washington. The Saudis have the capability to crash the entire US economy; you probably aren't old enough to remember when OPEC first flexed their muscles, but it was completely devastating to the economy, and if the Saudis sold even a fraction of their US debt it would plunge the country into a recession. The world is interconnected, and there are tens of thousands of trained professionals who spend their lives studying and crafting foreign policy, and a loud, populist neophyte can't just go and smash their decades of work because he found a campaign line that rouses the rabble.

The Russians claimed there were 23 hits, DoD says 60 missiles fired, 59 hit targets, 1 splash. Independent satellite imagery shows 44 separate targets hit, and their analysis says that some targets may have been hit multiple times. Source: http://archive.is/zuxre There are 15 targeted aircraft shelters, so if (just my conjecture) those were each assigned two missiles (which would make sense since they\'re the sturdiest targets), that would be 44 hits + 15 second hits on aircraft shelters, bringing the total in line with DoD claims. Russian claims of only 23 hits are not supported since there were at least 44 hits. Yes, runways were not targeted and Syrians launched aircraft the next day. Feel free to discuss the overall effectiveness of the strike. But the idea that the Russian claims that the missiles hit open fields has been disproven by independent sources, and when you make those claims you are spreading Russian propaganda. There are a lot of good arguments to be made against Trump\'s hasty use of the military. "The missiles did nothing" isn\'t one of them because it\'s false, and doing so allows the opposition to focus on that and undermine your other points, such as that it was a distraction. Most of the missiles (44 minimum, 59 claimed and plausible) hit structures or equipment on the airbase and damaged or destroyed those targets. Donald Trump is incompetent, but Mattis and the rest of the U.S. military are not. Mattis or his subordinates would be the ones planning the strike, and they\'d take that planning seriously and choose to hit real targets instead of sending missiles into the sand. That\'s the case even if the "This strike is a Trump / Assad / Putin conspiracy" is true - and no way Trump would reveal himself by ordering Mattis to not destroy anything on the airbase. If Trump doesn\'t actually give a shit about Syrian babies, then he sure as hell doesn\'t care if he blows up a few Syrian air force buildings.', '>>{prostitutepiss} : The chemical attack and US response was designed by Trump-Putin to distract from KremlinGate, here\'s why: - Russia put out publically that there would be negative consqeuences if US attacked Syria. Anything Russia puts out publically can be viewed as the exact opposite. - US informs Russia prior to attack to ensure that Russia would not be harmed in this attack. - Everyone knows Trump needs and wants a war to distract from KremlinGate. - Rex Tillerson\'s and Nikki Haley\'s well timed statements regarding Assad immediately prior to the chemical attack were designed to muddy the plan and make it seem that the response was based in principle opposition to the chemical attack and reactionary rather than planned. - The Kushner/Bannon fued is based on Kushner\'s view that Trump requires more popular support. This is why Bannon was ousted, and this is why Trump wants to look like a hero for his response to an inhumane attrocity. - Oil Prices have risen as they do when conflict in the middle east heightens. Rex and Exxon have benefited from this response. Russia too. - Russia\'s interests in Syria and access to resources remain intact. And will continue to remain intact as this episode plays out. - Assad will most likely remain in power through all this as an increaed US intervention that would oust him would require congressional support that Trump/Russia knows they do not have. - Further on the last point, Tillerson has said the following which points to Assad remaining in power despite this measured response: >"I would not in any way attempt to extrapolate that to a change in our policy or posture relative to our military activities in Syria today. There has been no change in that status," - Assad had zero reason to employ such a chemical attack from a geopolitical viewpoint if not to help his friends Putin and Trump. As the New York Times put it: >The diplomatic situation had been looking bright for President Bashar al-Assad of Syria. With the help of Russia, he had consolidated his power, the rebels were on their heels and the United States had just declared that ousting him was not a priority. So why would Mr. Assad risk it all, outraging the world by attacking civilians with what Turkey now says was the nerve agent sarin, killing scores of people, many of them children? Why would he inflict the deadliest chemical strike since the 2013 attacks outside Damascus, which came close to bringing American military retaliation, averted only by a last-minute deal? - Trumps prior tweets against intervention in Syria in 2013 at a time when Russian influence was already upon him shows that this response is hypocritical. And shows that this air strike is the result of present political needs rather than based in any principles against attrocities. - Putin\'s overall geopolitical goals of creating refugees to continue the false narrative against globalism to destabalize the West also benefits from these actions. - Mark my words here: The next fake narrative that Trump/Russian Trolls push will be "Why would Trump attack a Russian ally in Syria if they are in cahoots" Wait for the eventual confirmation of my theory as this narrative gains ground on Russian propaganda networks.', '>>{IClaudiusII} : Im starting to think the Russian trolls get paid by the post not by the day.', ">>{toastjam} : I'm struggling to figure this out myself based on their post history... elaborate troll account or simply a true believer?

The Russians claimed there were 23 hits, DoD says 60 missiles fired, 59 hit targets, 1 splash. Independent satellite imagery shows 44 separate targets hit, and their analysis says that some targets may have been hit multiple times. Source: http://archive.is/zuxre There are 15 targeted aircraft shelters, so if (just my conjecture) those were each assigned two missiles (which would make sense since they\'re the sturdiest targets), that would be 44 hits + 15 second hits on aircraft shelters, bringing the total in line with DoD claims. Russian claims of only 23 hits are not supported since there were at least 44 hits. Yes, runways were not targeted and Syrians launched aircraft the next day. Feel free to discuss the overall effectiveness of the strike. But the idea that the Russian claims that the missiles hit open fields has been disproven by independent sources, and when you make those claims you are spreading Russian propaganda. There are a lot of good arguments to be made against Trump\'s hasty use of the military. "The missiles did nothing" isn\'t one of them because it\'s false, and doing so allows the opposition to focus on that and undermine your other points, such as that it was a distraction. Most of the missiles (44 minimum, 59 claimed and plausible) hit structures or equipment on the airbase and damaged or destroyed those targets. Donald Trump is incompetent, but Mattis and the rest of the U.S. military are not. Mattis or his subordinates would be the ones planning the strike, and they\'d take that planning seriously and choose to hit real targets instead of sending missiles into the sand.

Anything Russia puts out publically can be viewed as the exact opposite. - US informs Russia prior to attack to ensure that Russia would not be harmed in this attack. - Everyone knows Trump needs and wants a war to distract from KremlinGate. - Rex Tillerson\'s and Nikki Haley\'s well timed statements regarding Assad immediately prior to the chemical attack were designed to muddy the plan and make it seem that the response was based in principle opposition to the chemical attack and reactionary rather than planned. - The Kushner/Bannon fued is based on Kushner\'s view that Trump requires more popular support. This is why Bannon was ousted, and this is why Trump wants to look like a hero for his response to an inhumane attrocity. - Oil Prices have risen as they do when conflict in the middle east heightens. Rex and Exxon have benefited from this response. Russia too. - Russia\'s interests in Syria and access to resources remain intact. And will continue to remain intact as this episode plays out. - Assad will most likely remain in power through all this as an increaed US intervention that would oust him would require congressional support that Trump/Russia knows they do not have. - Further on the last point, Tillerson has said the following which points to Assad remaining in power despite this measured response: >"I would not in any way attempt to extrapolate that to a change in our policy or posture relative to our military activities in Syria today. There has been no change in that status," - Assad had zero reason to employ such a chemical attack from a geopolitical viewpoint if not to help his friends Putin and Trump. As the New York Times put it: >The diplomatic situation had been looking bright for President Bashar al-Assad of Syria. With the help of Russia, he had consolidated his power, the rebels were on their heels and the United States had just declared that ousting him was not a priority. So why would Mr. Assad risk it all, outraging the world by attacking civilians with what Turkey now says was the nerve agent sarin, killing scores of people, many of them children? Why would he inflict the deadliest chemical strike since the 2013 attacks outside Damascus, which came close to bringing American military retaliation, averted only by a last-minute deal? - Trumps prior tweets against intervention in Syria in 2013 at a time when Russian influence was already upon him shows that this response is hypocritical. And shows that this air strike is the result of present political needs rather than based in any principles against attrocities. - Putin\'s overall geopolitical goals of creating refugees to continue the false narrative against globalism to destabalize the West also benefits from these actions. - Mark my words here: The next fake narrative that Trump/Russian Trolls push will be "Why would Trump attack a Russian ally in Syria if they are in cahoots" Wait for the eventual confirmation of my theory as this narrative gains ground on Russian propaganda networks.', '>>{silentiumau} : > They don\'t cite any senators... “This was not contrived,” Sen.

Five groups fighting for control. Hundreds of thousands have died. A major refugee crisis. And now it turns out they didn't get rid of those weapons after all. Should the US sit back and let Assad use them again or ISIS or al-Qaeda or any of the other warring factions there who could possibly get their hands on those things? Yeah he tweeted some stuff years ago when this all started but things were different. The consequences of what happens there now is on his watch.

All I'm saying is Syria went from really bad to a catastrophic nightmare scenario in a relatively short period of time. If you'll remember, we had just wrapped up an extensive bombing campaign/regime change in Libya and then a month later finally ended the war in Iraq. Syria was already a mess at that point (ISIS was spreading, everyone was fighting each other) and Americans were just flat out done with war. Nobody wanted to intervene. Not you, not me, not Obama, not Trump, not anybody. We were grateful when Russia stepped in. Unfortunately they ended up being ineffective.

Then why the hell would Obama ask congress to approve strikes in Syria?? For fun? You baffle me.', ">>{AFbeardguy} : Maybe because he caught a lot of flack for reducing Libya to rubble without receiving congressional approval before starting and wanted to do it the right way with Syria? The War Powers Resolution (an executive power which Obama exercised to begin the Libya bombardment) gives the president 60 days to use military force plus an additional 30 to withdrawal any troops/armaments before congress can intervene.

So DNG might be easier to work with because it generates smaller files than CR2. [This](http://petapixel.com/2015/07/16/why-i-stopped-using-the-dng-file-format/), for example, says that DNG achieves a "15-20% reduction in file size over proprietary raw files".

Adobe tends to argue that DNG\'s are "better" or "easier" because while they are smaller, they are also a single file. Editing a CR2 is easy, sure, but creates a XMP sidecar file. Now you have two files to manage. DNG wraps that xmp info into the same file. They\'re also a bit smaller, yes. but not always. Also another small detail for ease, LR5 and past versions will read DNG\'s (but not read all current raw formats from other brands) and you can simply convert files from that 5DSr or 5D4 to DNG with their free converter if you don\'t want to bother upgrading to LR CC right now. (this article is saying that you would have the option to have DNG\'s straight outta camera, which could be handy for some) All that said (and to ramble a little more), Adobe always points out in their demos/etc at things like PhotoPlus and PhotoshopWorld something along these lines "DNG is our (adobe\'s) format and we\'re not going anywhere. While companies like Canon and Nikon may change things on their end, our formats won\'t change so you know your files will always be read-by and work with our products" That\'s used in arguments they make saying "use photoshop over our competition\'s bundled software" So should you use DNG? Hard to say.. what\'s your workflow like? Do you keep your files and masters in one spot and only ever need them on those drives/system? Or do you travel a lot and need to work on files on different systems with other people\'s software?

That said, I think it still sounds stupid. It *almost* feels like it is targeted at the lowest common denominator of people who can\'t be expected to comprehend anything involving modern technology.

And from your link, a video I have seen several times now. https://youtu.be/t7PM9kwFwnc?t=69 The time stamp where he starts talking about kissing women without consent. "When I see a beautiful woman I just start kissing her, I don\'t even wait." "And when you are a star they let you do it, you can do anything." https://youtu.be/t7PM9kwFwnc?t=79 "Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything." That, since you seem to not understand how laws or human decency work, is called sexual assault. And if you don\'t believe me, and if you somehow missed the debates, here you go. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SN-dUOebFi8 >The Justice Department defines sexual assault as “any type of sexual contact or behavior that occurs without the explicit consent of the recipient.” Here is a full article you can read on it, you know, if you\'re capable of handling being wrong. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/10/09/anderson-cooper-told-trump-that-is-sexual-assault-the-justice-department-agrees/ So maybe your argument is that the definition of sexual assault is... what? Too strict? That women should not have the human right to decide for themselves if a stranger, if some businessman or television star has the right to start molesting them? Grabbing them by their genitals and treating them like cattle? Now onto the pedophile case. She laughed because she saw a polygraph test for the first time and saw how stupid and unreliable it was for evidence. She was not laughing over her client being protected properly in a court of law, she laughed because polygraph tests are notoriously unreliable and she saw it first hand. Did you listen to the rest of that tape? The prosecutor had destroyed alleged evidence of the alleged crime. No matter what, no matter if the man was or was not guilty, that destroys any case that can be held against him. In America you are innocent until proven guilty. How can you prove guilt without evidence? The opposing lawyer destroyed the evidence and then expected it to be held up in court, even going so far as to try and stop Hillary from seeing the evidence beforehand. Sorry mate, that doesn\'t wash for me. If the man was a pedophile then it\'s a crying shame the prosecutor did what he did. If anything the video you linked me shows the kinds of trials Hillary had to face in our law system being a woman. "I don\'t want to talk about this in front of you" grandstanding and obscuring evidence, destroying evidence? It\'s ridiculous. Hillary did her job and she did it damn well. Is it Trumps job to purposefully walk in on naked teenagers at beauty pageants though? He sure thinks so. http://www.slate.com/blogs/xx_factor/2016/10/12/donald_trump_walked_in_on_half_dressed_teen_girls_in_the_dressing_room_pageant.html >Trump himself has bragged about exploiting his power as the then-owner of the pageants to force naked or half-dressed contestants to let him stare at them. He told Howard Stern in 2005 that he pretended to be checking on the progress of the show: >"Well, I’ll tell you the funniest is that before a show: I’ll go backstage, and everyone’s getting dressed, and everything else, and you know, no men are anywhere, and I’m allowed to go in because I\'m the owner of the pageant and therefore I’m inspecting it. You know, I’m inspecting because I want to make sure that everything is good. You know, the dresses. “Is everyone OK?” You know, they’re standing there with no clothes. “Is everybody OK?” And you see these incredible-looking women, and so, I sort of get away with things like that." Girls as young as fifteen, and he\'s bragging about it. Girls as young as thirteen, according to the women he has harassed. He\'s raped women, molested women, raped children, sexually assaulted little girls. A pedophile by his own admission. And you sit there and defend him on the internet? Reconsider your position, and reconsider it strongly. I\'m not going to tell you who to vote for, but I would certainly hope you would be capable of looking at the facts and see that Trump is not the person you want for president. I mean, unless if you want a mentally unstable rapist to be given access to nuclear weapons that he\'s willing to use on our allies. But, in that case, I\'d have to wonder how you\'re able to read or write at all.']

So DNG might be easier to work with because it generates smaller files than CR2. [This](http://petapixel.com/2015/07/16/why-i-stopped-using-the-dng-file-format/), for example, says that DNG achieves a "15-20% reduction in file size over proprietary raw files". It also raises some issues about DNG files - particularly when used with Capture One, though that [seems to have been addressed](http://captureoneblog.com/capture-one-9-review/) from version 9. The author of the PetaPixel article mentions that in the comments to [this look at the pros and cons of DNG](http://petapixel.com/2015/12/08/dng-the-pros-cons-and-myths-of-the-adobe-raw-file-format/). That file size difference might be relevant if the cost (in time and/or money) of storage or file transfer is an issue. Depending upon hardware, I guess it might also make a material difference to post-processing time. Just from looking at those articles, whether it\'s worthwhile switching seems to depend upon personal workflows etc.', ">>{_Mardoxx} : What's the advantage of this over a normal RAW. Just seems silly yaving to do an extra invert operation. And I'm pretty sure the CCDs don't capture in negative anyway.", '>>{mostlyjustread} : To add to what others are saying.. Adobe tends to argue that DNG\'s are "better" or "easier" because while they are smaller, they are also a single file. Editing a CR2 is easy, sure, but creates a XMP sidecar file. Now you have two files to manage. DNG wraps that xmp info into the same file. They\'re also a bit smaller, yes. but not always. Also another small detail for ease, LR5 and past versions will read DNG\'s (but not read all current raw formats from other brands) and you can simply convert files from that 5DSr or 5D4 to DNG with their free converter if you don\'t want to bother upgrading to LR CC right now. (this article is saying that you would have the option to have DNG\'s straight outta camera, which could be handy for some) All that said (and to ramble a little more), Adobe always points out in their demos/etc at things like PhotoPlus and PhotoshopWorld something along these lines "DNG is our (adobe\'s) format and we\'re not going anywhere. While companies like Canon and Nikon may change things on their end, our formats won\'t change so you know your files will always be read-by and work with our products" That\'s used in arguments they make saying "use photoshop over our competition\'s bundled software" So should you use DNG? Hard to say.. what\'s your workflow like? Do you keep your files and masters in one spot and only ever need them on those drives/system? Or do you travel a lot and need to work on files on different systems with other people\'s software? If you\'re in the latter category, using DNG\'s and not needing to have a LR.cat file with you or XMP files to manage might be a good thing to try out', '>>{i_am_jotun} : There\'s actually no negative/inversion involved from any technical point of view. It is just a marketing term. Adobe wants to express the idea of "Original, unprocessed, maximum information from the time of shooting." A decent analog world equivalent for that is \'negative\'. That said, I think it still sounds stupid. It *almost* feels like it is targeted at the lowest common denominator of people who can\'t be expected to comprehend anything involving modern technology. I think the real selling point is that it is an open standard. You can avoid some legal and technical challenges compared to trying to make hardware/software that works with another company\'s proprietary format. From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Negative : > **Freely-available specification:**[26][27][28] this can be downloaded from the Adobe website without negotiation or needing justification.[2] > > **Format based on open specifications and/or standards:** DNG is compatible with TIFF/EP, and various open formats and/or standards are used, including Exif metadata, XMP metadata, IPTC metadata, CIE XYZ coordinates and JPEG.[2][29] > > **Self-contained file format:** a DNG file contains the data (raw image data and metadata) needed to render an image without needing additional knowledge of the characteristics of the camera.[2][22] > > **Version control scheme:** it has a version scheme built into it that allows the DNG specification, DNG writers, and DNG readers, to evolve at their own paces.[30][31] > > **Freely-available source-code-based software development kit (SDK):** there are three aspects - there is an SDK; it is source-code-based (as can be verified by examination); and it can be downloaded from the Adobe website without needing justification.[32] > > **Documented to have no known intellectual property encumbrances or license requirements:** there is both a "Digital Negative (DNG) Specification Patent License" which says that anyone can exploit DNG,[4] and a statement that there are no known intellectual property encumbrances or license requirements for DNG.[5] > > **Lossless and lossy compression (optional):** DNG support optional lossless and (since version 1.4) also lossy compression.[33] The lossy compressions losses are practically indistinguishable in real world images.[34]', '>>{eqleriq} : when you edit a DNG the edits are stored within the DNG. when you edit a canon or nikon raw, the edits are stored in a different file. It doesn\'t matter for adobe camera raw or lightroom, that\'s bullshit... they both handle the sidecar files fine. This makes it more compact and convenient for various file management programs. For example portfolio will preview the raw files, not the raw files as modified by the XMP It\'s essentially also cross platform, not requiring specific camera handling. DNGs load /preview quicker in adobe products and are smaller. But that\'s the problem. Lightroom is great... but it is no Capture One, and capture one doesn\'t support DNG. Lightroom defaults to "adobe standard" which requires a lot of cajoling to get results that capture one has by default. There is corroboration of this all over the web: http://petapixel.com/2015/07/16/why-i-stopped-using-the-dng-file-format/', ">>{Bossman1086} : 5D4 RAW files shouldn't be significantly larger unless you're shooting in dual pixel mode.

The article says game changer, I don't see any benefit, not a small one.", '>>{Couldbehuman} : I\'ll be using this feature. I convert to DNG anyway, I don\'t like having th be XMP files all the time. Random thought about the usage of negative, in analogue there was also chrome or "positive" film. They could have called it a digital positive and still been making an accurate analogy.

Also, it's anything but just that tape. Trump is a con man, who can't be trusted on any policy he puts forward. Now he's claiming without reason that the voting process is rigged against him.

With your thread, you are admitting that you do not even see what was wrong with this quote. Is your lack of respect for women so bad that you cannot understand why Trump words were outrageous, or are you simply lying to yourself to get convinced that he is "the lesser of two evils" ?

"When I see a beautiful woman I just start kissing her, I don\'t even wait." "And when you are a star they let you do it, you can do anything." https://youtu.be/t7PM9kwFwnc?t=79 "Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything." That, since you seem to not understand how laws or human decency work, is called sexual assault. And if you don\'t believe me, and if you somehow missed the debates, here you go. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SN-dUOebFi8 >The Justice Department defines sexual assault as “any type of sexual contact or behavior that occurs without the explicit consent of the recipient.” Here is a full article you can read on it, you know, if you\'re capable of handling being wrong. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/10/09/anderson-cooper-told-trump-that-is-sexual-assault-the-justice-department-agrees/ So maybe your argument is that the definition of sexual assault is... what? Too strict? That women should not have the human right to decide for themselves if a stranger, if some businessman or television star has the right to start molesting them? Grabbing them by their genitals and treating them like cattle? Now onto the pedophile case. She laughed because she saw a polygraph test for the first time and saw how stupid and unreliable it was for evidence. She was not laughing over her client being protected properly in a court of law, she laughed because polygraph tests are notoriously unreliable and she saw it first hand. Did you listen to the rest of that tape? The prosecutor had destroyed alleged evidence of the alleged crime. No matter what, no matter if the man was or was not guilty, that destroys any case that can be held against him. In America you are innocent until proven guilty. How can you prove guilt without evidence? The opposing lawyer destroyed the evidence and then expected it to be held up in court, even going so far as to try and stop Hillary from seeing the evidence beforehand. Sorry mate, that doesn\'t wash for me. If the man was a pedophile then it\'s a crying shame the prosecutor did what he did. If anything the video you linked me shows the kinds of trials Hillary had to face in our law system being a woman. "I don\'t want to talk about this in front of you" grandstanding and obscuring evidence, destroying evidence? It\'s ridiculous. Hillary did her job and she did it damn well. Is it Trumps job to purposefully walk in on naked teenagers at beauty pageants though? He sure thinks so. http://www.slate.com/blogs/xx_factor/2016/10/12/donald_trump_walked_in_on_half_dressed_teen_girls_in_the_dressing_room_pageant.html >Trump himself has bragged about exploiting his power as the then-owner of the pageants to force naked or half-dressed contestants to let him stare at them. He told Howard Stern in 2005 that he pretended to be checking on the progress of the show: >"Well, I’ll tell you the funniest is that before a show: I’ll go backstage, and everyone’s getting dressed, and everything else, and you know, no men are anywhere, and I’m allowed to go in because I\'m the owner of the pageant and therefore I’m inspecting it. You know, I’m inspecting because I want to make sure that everything is good. You know, the dresses. “Is everyone OK?” You know, they’re standing there with no clothes. “Is everybody OK?” And you see these incredible-looking women, and so, I sort of get away with things like that." Girls as young as fifteen, and he\'s bragging about it. Girls as young as thirteen, according to the women he has harassed. He\'s raped women, molested women, raped children, sexually assaulted little girls. A pedophile by his own admission. And you sit there and defend him on the internet? Reconsider your position, and reconsider it strongly. I\'m not going to tell you who to vote for, but I would certainly hope you would be capable of looking at the facts and see that Trump is not the person you want for president. I mean, unless if you want a mentally unstable rapist to be given access to nuclear weapons that he\'s willing to use on our allies. But, in that case, I\'d have to wonder how you\'re able to read or write at all.']]

In colloquial use it is a bastardization of assault rifle. Which is defined as, "a select fire rifle chambered in an intermediate cartridge". While that might sound scary actual assault rifles are legal but highly regulated, very expensive, and kind of rare in the US. Platforms like the AR-15 (the AR stands for Armalite Rifle), which is the civilian version of the M-16 & M-4 platforms. This platform uses a .223/.556 round which is smaller then your average hunting rifle caliber.

I have used this analogy before, but assault looking weapons are similar to choosing between a shovel with a wooden handle or a stronger and a shovel and with lighter composite handle.

In colloquial use it is a bastardization of assault rifle. Which is defined as, "a select fire rifle chambered in an intermediate cartridge". While that might sound scary actual assault rifles are legal but highly regulated, very expensive, and kind of rare in the US. Platforms like the AR-15 (the AR stands for Armalite Rifle), which is the civilian version of the M-16 & M-4 platforms. This platform uses a .223/.556 round which is smaller then your average hunting rifle caliber.

I\'m currently using a Note 3 neo and an iPhone 5 and both of them are holding great. But since both of them are years old now I was thinking of an upgrade and went for the note 7 but immediately did a complete 180°and thought of buying an s7 edge. But since it\'s a 6 month old phone (ancient tech) and the new s8 or whatever the hell they\'ll call it now will be coming out should I wait for it or buy a s7 edge? I\'m not an iphone guy by any means and use it for basic stuff and my note is my daily driver. I\'m also a Samsung fanboy (I know, not a good time to make claims like these) and haven\'t touched a nexus or a lg ever. I love the features they provide with the spen and other things.

Please.', ">>{pizzashill} : What is it that's factually incorrect in this article?", '>>{definitelyjoking} : I wish he were one. We don\'t need to be involved in every war on the planet. There are now obligations to Iraq and Afghanistan due to our insane decision making in the 00s, and our involvement in Syria, Yemen, and Libya aren\'t good for the US or even the countries we\'re "helping." Constant drone strikes spread across the world and labeling every dead male an enemy combatant don\'t make us safer. It makes us a target of hatred and resentment. America also spends far too much of its money on interventionist policies with questionable value to the US. If Trump were an actual isolationist we might finally be able to scale back our insane military spending and stop using the funding as a way to prop up Congressional districts producing unnecessary weapons.', '>>{Geotolkien} : I keep hearing from the media that Trump is a big fan of Patton and MacArthur, but clearly he\'s not a huge disciple of George Patton\'s statement that "fixed fortifications are monuments to the stupidity of man," or he\'d have a different strategy for dealing with illegal immigration.', ">>{SocialBrushStroke} : You know what happens when we don't get involved, right? Genocide. Like in Kosovo and Aleppo and Germany And if you don't think we have an obligation to clean up their own mess and Afghanistan and Iraq, you're heartless. That's a terrible thing to do to a country.", ">>{definitelyjoking} : Yeah, it's going so much better in Syria, Libya, Yemen, Afghanistan and Iraq now we're involved. Hell, we're actually helping the Saudis as they try (and fail) to commit genocide against the Shia Houthis. Also, whatever Aleppo is, it's not a genocide. It also occurred as a direct result of us backing FSA rebel groups to begin with. The US isn't even on the right side of the Syrian conflict, and our actions have resulted in far more death than had to happen.
