The last few bubbles completely wiped out people who had 401k accounts. They were absolutely devastated, but if they stayed in, it rebuilt with interest… just in time to be wiped out when the next bubble pops.

It will happen again. Folks that have money in the stock market right now will be jumping off buildings in the next few years.

Exactly the problem!

Not quite, Windows detects the monitor being attached and goes “Oh? What software goes with this?” and downloads the package provided by LG.

The monitor doesn’t say “Hey, I want you to download this”, Windows does that on it’s own.

The only people who can avoid being cancelled are the ones with no fame. If you have become famous, it can always be taken away.

Look at Mother Teresa, arguably one of the most famous people during her life.

After she died? It came out that she was in fact a horrible human being, and now she’s largely forgotten.

There is no level of fame that insulates you, only a lack of fame.

Fortunately they are not all the same. For example, there is no comparison between the Taliban in Afghanistan with the UAE.

When it comes to complaints about Islam, notably stuff like “Honor” killings and such, that is not part of the faith or the Koran. It’s a primitive tribal belief system that’s a holdover from before Islam existed.

So, no, you can’t paint them all with the same brush.

Oh, it won’t. Dude is absolutely toast. He can bow out now, or lose to Susan Collins. There is no other option.

People like me saying “Don’t wait! Do it now!”? I’m fully supportive that she came forward, but she literally picked the worst time to do it.

She had the opportunity to stop him before he ever got this far, and only choosing to do it now, even true, adds suspicion to the accusation where there should be none.

Don’t mistake questioning the timing with not believing it happened.

She comes out with it now, one week before the deadline instead of during the primary? Or at any other time since 2021?

When the first allegation came out, that would have been a perfect time to #MeToo! and she did not. She could have dropped it with the Nazi tattoo stuff “Oh, yeah, not just a Nazi, but a rapist too!”

It likely happened the way she described it, and It will absolutely tank his candidacy, but the timing smells. She SHOULD have killed him in the primary.

I care less about the tattoo than I do the fact he got a permanent body modification without understanding what he was doing.

That’s not the mindset of someone who should be enacting laws that impact the rest of us

Yes, it was a Nazi tattoo in this case, but I wouldn’t vote for someone with a language tattoo they can’t read either.

The problem is, he has less than a week to decide to drop or not.

The impact on his candidacy won’t be known until AFTER the deadline to drop.

Which is why people are saying the accuser is politically motivated.

So, a couple of things…

For a real time warning system, there’s no need to actually record anything. Monitoring the video feed with no record capability should be fine.

Second, this sounds super easy to defeat with a printed photo card and a couple of Googley Eyes. 👀

Gad civilization… in the far flung future of 2019! 😉

Deckard missed Covid!

Yeah, when the competition was other closed systems like Compuserve and Prodigy.

You and me both! I still remember the Time Warner thing… “AOL buys Time Warner…”

“Oh, that HAS to be a mistake, you mean the other way around.”

“No no…”
