    @jon-nyc said in AOC: "The bail is too damn high!": As far as I’m concerned, she can eat shit 24 hours a day 365 days a year for the rest of her life. I’d even pitch in a can or two of my own. I hate it when @jon-nyc holds back.

    @jon-nyc said in "End of quote": Seems like the demand for Biden’s “senior moments” greatly exceeds the supply. Sort of like how the demand for mud to sling at Trump greatly exceeded supply?

    Not many left, huh..... A cowboy, an Injun, and an Arab are in a bar... the njun raises his glass and says "here's to the native American.. who once were many, but now are few!" Not to be outdone, the Arab raises his glass and says "here's to the arab... who once were few, but now are many!!" The cowboy smiles, takes a swig of his beer, and says "yeah... but we ain't played cowboys and Arabs yet..,,"

    @george-k said in Dino Avenger: If it succeeds, though, NASA anticipates that it’ll be able to observe a slight 1.5% change in Dimorphos’ orbital period This should be just enough to put it on a trajectory toward Los Angeles, arriving late next summer.

    The E6B slide rule is sometimes used by American cadets for calculations of the flight path, speed and altitude. Sometimes!? You better be handy with your E6B. ![alt text]([image: 1637773464638-ed07ce2d-7882-4204-8924-28ac3d5e969a-image.png] image url)

    @jolly said in 50 (well, 30) years ago: And the world is a better place. Maybe. Yeah, I think the internet is "net negative" in terms of news/social. But net positive for staying connected with friends/family, data storage (cloud!), and information access (maps, research, how-to videos, etc).

    My question is why is an alien, green card or no, with his criminal record still in the US? It should be one strike and you are out.

    @89th said in Shaman: @larry said in Shaman: @89th said in Shaman: @larry I think you have your documents mixed up You're correct, I do. I quoted the Declaration of Independence, not the Constitution. My mistake. Still, it clearly in the Declaration of Independence that the people have the right to abolish the government and institute a new one. I would assume then, that this means the Constitution plays second fiddle, and would be abolished as well, with the new government deciding whether or not to incorporate it into the new government or not, and how much on the Constitution might be kept. The Declaration of Independence was exactly that... a declaration. It outlined why our country broke away from the monarchy and the ideals for which a new country/constitution/government would be formed. So the Constitution was later created, and are where rights are outlined. I'm aware of that. And, because the Constitution was written for the purpose of implementing those ideals, it is our right as citizens to abolish that Constitution if it strays from those ideals. Those on January 6th were explicitly executing anti-Constitution acts, even if they thought it was just anti-Government. They were objecting to the government following election law and the constitution process regarding the election of leaders and the peaceful transfer of power, fueled by misinformation. Which was a shame, as I'm sure most involved love America and the constitution as much as anyone else. Bull shit. Pure, unadulterated bull shit.

    Mrs. George is running a 2011 MacBook Air. Her current OS is Big Sur (Mac OS 11.6.1) and has had no problems afaik. However, she's at the end of the upgrade path. She won't be able to upgrade to Monterey (nor will I with my 2014 iMac).
