I thought so too, but then reading the article actually made it a bit less racist than initial thoughts. They had been celebrating Lee in January a good 70 years before MLKJ got his day in January. Still racist, but I can see politicians being like “fuck it. We’re not having two holidays a week apart from each other”.
Also, wouldn’t it be just as upsetting to racists in support of Lee as it is to non racists in support of MLKJ?
Took me 25 minutes to buy a $4 brake light bulb at wal mart one night. After tracking down an employee to track down another employee to meet me by the glass door. I’ll never buy car bulbs there again. That portion of store is dead to me.
It’s unethical to experiment on anyone other than yourself, but there’s a reason we can cure so many things in mice, and it isn’t just that they’re a bit simpler. It’s also because they go through a lot of mice.
I’d ask the same about you, but you’re also the one arguing it’s a pointless product.
Funny. I’ve never seen even one. Sure would be simpler if the laptop just had a double screen built in.
Yeah, and how many libraries you see with laptops on em and people with second monitors attached that people also carry? People put them on desks at libraries because libraries provide large desks. That doesn’t give you an extra amount of monitor.
No. Laptops are still laptops. You’re just choosing not to use them as such. In fact, they’re more lap friendly now than they originally were. With how you describe using yours, you should just have a mini pc instead of a laptop.
Solved in what other ways? Having a portable laptop you have to carry around with a 2nd monitor and find a place to set up is a pain if you actually do stuff on the go and aren’t just using your laptop to move from like a desk at home to a desk at your office.
I’d never want to carry around a 2nd monitor or find a place to set it when using a "lap"top. A 2nd monitor is great for a desktop.
I think they mean the other way around…
“That is because all those states have passed laws requiring porn websites to verify that their users are under-18”
Probably. As you originally wrote it, it just looks like you think the screen is pointless.
Especially for the palisades $3,500,000 homes.
At $50,000 a year it would take 70 years of payments.
The no gain part I’ll argue against. Having two browser windows open and getting to see both would be really nice a ton of times. Or one browser and a document/pdf whatever.
Like having a Netflix show running up top while doing work on the bottom half. Or writing a paper while having reference material open and visible. Or simply just reading an article without having to scroll as often.
Usage wise, a tall screen would have tons of usage. I just wouldn’t pay an extra $2,000+ for the privilage of it. I’d definitely pay like an extra 20% or so to have it, though.
The speculation is free buildup and helps create demand anticipation. Leaks and speculation like this are great advertising. It only becomes bad when the leaks and speculation created are better than what the actual product is, or a lot worse than the product is.
If the speculation was going around that it would be backwards compatible with all former Gameboy cartridges and include free downloads of any Nintendo games older than 5 years, Nintendo would quickly release the real specs/info.
The icing on the cake was lying about the best deals when partnered stores paid them to do so.
If you’re going to spout off things like they’re facts, at least know the differences between revenue and profit. If you say you do know the difference, then it makes your comment here seem pretty dumb. Also, why are you speaking as though this fine was a fixed amount? What gave you that idea?
Revenue, yes. But they aren’t actually making much by airline standards. It still isn’t “a lot” for them, but as one of the smaller airlines in of of the few areas left that actually has more than just a few companies in competition with each other, it wouldn’t really be in the publics best interest to fine the hell out of them unless the 2 million doesn’t get them to change their ways. If the problem gets fixed, sweet. If not, give em a bigger punishment.
I didn’t want to type out paragraphs worth talking to a brick wall.
It’s not the internet job to safeguard your kids. That’s the bottom line. All of this regulation and moderation is just stepping stones further to a controlled and moderated internet. Y’all just want to slowly add more and more limitations and training wheels to life and you’re giving up our own freedoms and rights to do it.
Tell me, who decides where the line is drown between allowable and not allowed? How are millions of hours of content supposed to be moderated by decency police to make that decision? How well do you think something automated can be that would do it?
The fine isn’t the point. Yeah, ten million is nothing to a large company. But what it really does is create censorship “for the children”.
By your logic, just blame the parents. They have the ultimate responsibility.
Well sure it’s racist, but it’d be more racist if they created the day and put it there solely out of spite.
