Better advice, don’t be a moron, and just stop using Windows 7.

If you hate Windows 10, then switch to Mac or Linux. But don’t be a dumbass and pretend that you can keep Windows 7 secure. There will be vulnerabilities that the only way to prevent will be to completely disconnect it from the network.

There were…

I was just having this conversation last week with my Sister In-law who is lookign for houses and was stating how crucial it was that the house be Open with an exposed kitchen. I was like “That is just an Emperors New Clothes thing. Wouldn’t it be nice for your houseguests to not have the ability to see the mess of…

Portland was once a white supremacist colony, so not surprising that it has a white centric view of things while still espousing diversity. But that is ll pretty irrelevant since the perp was clearly not a white woman. 

I’d add to pick a car that is inexpensive to replace parts on. Sure that late 80s Porsche is a steal used, but they cost just as much to repair now as when they were new. Same goes for BMWs.

If you want to take it beyond 200k miles, pick the Honda, or Subaru, etc. It is especially good if you pick one with a JDM…

It is because she remembers the last impeachment trial, where Clinton did this repeatedly.

The most notorious was when he bombed a pharmaceutical plant in the Sudan on the day Lewinsky was supposed to testify. Calling it a chemical weapons factory at the time, which turned out to be a lie.

At least this guy had ties to…

In first class I have seen a man scream at the top of his lungs about horrible of a person the flight attendant was and how he was going to get her fired, all because she had the gall to ask him if he would mind trading from seat 3b to seat 2b (identical seats one row apart) so that someone could sit next to their…

Bingo. It is generally a work thing, or a sky miles thing. But the people who earn sky miles usually do it at work or via buying a LOT of stuff with a rewards card, so they are usually wealthy too.

Then don’t fly first class. I have met SOOOOOOO many assholes in 1st class bitching over tiny little things. Sure the flight attendants are nicer, but the passengers are horrid and overly entitled.

I've done Heathrow to Seattle more times than I can count. And I honestly don't know how the people in coach do it. I usually just do the British World Traveler plus (not as nice as business class, but every bit as nice as domestic 1st class) but on the times I have been upgraded to business class, with the full flat…

Then you will never be upgraded to 1st class at that rate.

They do this. I get upgraded about 50% of the time and as far as airline "status" goes, I am pretty far down the pole.

But they do give free upgrades all the time. Just not to one time flyers.

But if it can get you one more productive day on the ground, and help you beat jetlag, your company may feel the extra $2k is worth it.

And your neighbors in coach are almost always more pleasant than the assholes in first class.

Just have a mileage plan and fly consistently with the same airline and they will upgrade you to first class a lot

“Bring the price down on parts with economies of scale, bring the price of manufacturing down, as many plants will produce the same cars”

It is common sense. Most stuff sold in classified ads like Craigslist sell for about 80% of the asking price.

seemingly ignoring that this is a political process and not a criminal trial.

You lock your doors to keep honest people honest. If you have lock picks you know just how easy it is to pick a lot, even easier to jimmy open a window next to that lock.

That is my point, some websites aren’t really all that protected in the first place. Why put a vault door with three separate combos on a house when…

Do people really use hacked commenting accounts to threaten and demean any more than people just create burner accounts?

And why would I care? It isn’t me making the mean remarks.

In the end, websites that create accounts for commenting are held to much lower standards for password security than websites that house…
