    @jon-nyc said in Hunter Remorse: He’s running against Donald Trump, father of the Trump kids. Are you implying the Trump kids are crooks like Hunter Biden? Prove it.

    @Doctor-Phibes said in Trump losing seniors by 20+ points?: I also don't trust the polls. There was a pro-Trump bunch of people here waving their flags and what-have you in the middle of the town, and the number of cars beeping their support was surprisingly large, particularly here in MA. It seems to me that the pro-Trumpers are very enthusiastic, whereas the pro-Bidens are mostly pretty meh about him. That being said, I'm generally completely wrong with election predictions. This is why getting Democrats to vote early is so important. Make sure they cast their votes before they get too demoralized or something happens and they wish they could change it.

    @89th said in Tone it down: @LuFins-Dad said in Tone it down: HOLY SHIT! Right now, there is a legitimate shot that @Aqua-Letifer pulls the lever for Trump, and @89th pulls the lever for Biden! This is like Bizarro World! Ha!! Well I already voted, and it was for a chick. If you’re going to vote for a Libertarian, make it a Libertarian Space Cowboy, not just some chick!

    #1) @George-K By “come as you are” I don’t mean we encouraged to come in sleeping shorts and bed hair. Most guys are in suits or slacks and collared shirts, but there are a few in jeans and a t-shirt and it’s not a thing. Nobody cares or looks down their nose. It’s the platform that matters. I bought a couple of shirts and ties and a Sport Coat for a kid that is a really good guitarist and I wanted in the Praise Band. Heh, now I’m being asked to wear jeans so I don’t stand out. @Aqua-Letifer 1) The jackass that wrote the note would have been a jackass whether they were in a halter top and daisy dukes or in a designer dress. There are assholes in all sides as well. you need to rethink your analogy. Pineapples and pegging Jon’s sister actually have a lot to do with each other. @Jolly I enjoy some of the praise music, but you have to have hymns. This guy hasn’t had a hymn in the service for 4 weeks...

    @Doctor-Phibes said in "Operating Expenditures" at the Lincoln Project: Actually, 100K a month isn't that much. It's pretty easy to get through $2K in a week on expenses, so if there's 10 of them, that would do it - 5 of them if they're staying in swanky city hotels and living large. Yep, I agree. I one time had to fly Thailand - US - Thailand and then about 5 days later, Thailand - US - Vietnam. Plane tickets alone for just those flights were about USD$12K or more. Plus other expenses and that was only in a two week period.

    Ohr’s wife was a contractor at Fusion GPS with the thumb drive. But nobody gives a shit about this stuff. Schiff acts like he would be so appalled by this kind of stuff. Hahaha Hey Schiff care to rebutt the Nunez report again. Nah I didn’t think so.

    @Klaus said in Apple announces new iPhones and stuff.: @xenon said in Apple announces new iPhones and stuff.: @George-K yeah, I don't even see a single use case. No one downloads gargantuan files on cellular. LTE is almost good enough for full 4K - which would be ridiculous on a 6 inch screen. Maybe there's some use-case for super low latency... haven't really seen it for a smartphone. I think the main reason for 5G isn't its maximum speed, but the speed it can deliver when many users use the same tower concurrently. If you sit in an airport and 300 people use the same mobile access point, then you need to divide the max speed by 300. That said, I agree that 5G isn't very useful at the moment. Right - but even that is an argument for lowering wireless carrier capex rather than a novel new end-user experience. With enough LTE access points, even dense gathers can have good coverage - it's a matter of infrastructure outlay.

    @George-K said in Trump has no credibility with his own Dept. of Justice: @George-K said in Trump has no credibility with his own Dept. of Justice: At the most basic level The President has authority to declassify anything and everything he wants. That said, whether that actually happens in this case is another question, as the article says. DOJ (which, last time I looked is in the Executive Branch) can say, "We shouldn't." But, it can't say, "We won't." He hasn't given the order, so they are assuming they can stop declassification. ETA: What are the odds that TRump doesn't know what's in those documents? I'd guess slim. I think you are right. LOL There may be nothing in there. But this way, he can say to the US public that he is trying to show the corruption. His supporters are happy with his effort. Nothing will happen until after the election and then it won't be important, because at that point, he has either won or lost another term.
