Trump has the “amped up” part covered with his uppers, but he can’t put together a logical sentence, let alone an idea or “paint a picture” of his plan for anything.

What do you mean? His recent stuff about sharks and batteries was amazing :)

basement crank and was excited to try it, so I horked a rail

I love your words.

wow, posh spice let herself go

FYI they are called “public schools” because historically, anyone could go to them as long as they could afford the fee. The only other schools around at the time were faith schools. State schools in England would not exist until the 1880s, and in a form we’d recognize today until the 1940s

Just curious, does it work this way for regular people? It seems like the justice system really puts on the kid gloves for these right wing shitbags.

How’s the future? Things get any better?

He’s really shitting himself about being sentenced isn’t he? Good.

It’s possible they did. I think Dell briefly discussed it as an option, before using it as leverage to get cheaper Windows licenses from Microsoft. The EEE PC also shipped with its own Linux distro and appropriate hardware drivers.

This was why I said “nearly impossible” :)

Linux is close, but has some core flaws that will forever keep it out of mainstream acceptance by your average user.

It has nothing to do with any flaws within Linux itself. The problem is and has always been that it’s nearly impossible to buy a PC with any flavour of Linux pre-installed. Until that changes, Linux (on home user desktops) will never gain mainstream acceptance.

I doubt he goes to prison. People who get in trouble for this sorta thing tend to not go to prison.

Trump’s lawyer and fixer got 3 years in jail already for this crime. It was also his first offence. It would be pretty unfair to send the monkey to jail and not the organ grinder for the same crime.

You’re probably right though, Trump is clearly getting special treatment because of his proclivity to stochastic terrorism.

I read this in the voice of the alien from omicron persei 8 on Futurama

The show just sucks for a variety of other reasons.

Terrible writing. It’s been bloody awful for a few seasons now imo. I don’t care about the race or gender of any of the actors, but you’ve got to give me good storylines.

Maybe it’s anticompetitive conduct by the provider (like Microsoft using its market power on Outlook/Exchange to push other services like Teams over its competition)

That’s exactly what it is. They leveraged their dominance/monopoly in one market to gain a stranglehold on another market. It’s not exactly a new tactic for Microsoft either.

It is on the 16th, but you’ve been able to pre-order for a while. It’s pre-order folks that are getting refunded.

Oh no, this is panino vs panini all over again

It’s an argument about critical paths in a project. Also, is no-one going to credit “The Mythical Man Month” where this quote comes from?

It’s not worth the risk of giving the defense cause for mistrial by jumping to jail time too quickly

He’s already been fined for 9 counts of contempt of court, would prison time after that really count as “going too quickly” ?

If I were on Tesla’s board, I would be doing my best to get Elon the hell away from the brand.

Pecker by name eh?

That’s interesting, what’s so clever or original about its algorithm?
