I pretty much streamed the entire hearing and let it play in the background as I worked :) But as soon as Comey acknowledged that a victory against Apple would set a precedent & lead to more requests, I thought the hearing would be adjourned and a decision made! And then when Vance said there were 205 phones waiting,…

Yes... that exact thought, about propaganda v education, crossed my mind when typing my comment but I didn’t really want to open Pandora’s box. It really is like spreading one’s propaganda compared to impartial education. It’s quite easy when it comes to objective streams of education, like the sciences, there’s no…

Bernie used it, not so bad. Drumpf used it, verrrry bad. And I’m not even being sarcastic!

Lobbying is very weird. Obviously, lobbying through financial donations/barter system, IMO, counts as buying votes and ethically wrong. It’s a different matter that ethics have no standing anymore. On the other hand, if you’re convincing somebody using logical arguments & truth, then lobbying isn’t so bad.

and they won’t finish their food... well, seeing as it’s McD’s, that might not be such a bad thing.

Use technology to your advantage... VPN or just wait till somebody puts up a mirror or rehosts it.

We need a Matt Damon or that reporter who tore up Sarah Palin. We need someone like the latter to have a sit down with Drumpf. Cloak it all with pompous words that he uses so he actually agrees to an interview. And then rip him apart on live TV. Cut him short in his own sentences and make him answer to hard questions…

95% of me really wants him to crash & burn before the elections to the point that he doesn’t get campaign funds to pay his self-loan back. But the remaining 5% of me wants him to get elected, say/do something stupid in a foreign land or against a foreign leader to sway public opinion against him(“I won’t stand for the…

I have equated it to the Loch Ness monster & Yeti... I have never met a Trump supporter but, somehow, he’s ahead in the polls.

I’ve always said Trump is just entertainment fodder and I was starting to get scared that people might mistake that for a legitimate candidate. But, finally, here it is! Move over Bush/Dubyaman, Drumpf is here! The Chrome extension left me rofl!! Class act...

iPhone’s are going to sell better amongst the terrorist crowd

That’s a noble thought and pretty much what I practice as well. Of late, when I received the new Samsung VR headset, I would let curious people at cafes try it out :) It seems like you live in the NE area... there are some fantastic roads out here in CA, you’d enjoy them in your hypercars :)

Wow, that was really nice of you!

These cars look more like spaceships now... that cabin is just class! :)

There was another crash on the I-5 South around Griffith Park by about 3am on Saturday, 2/27. I was stuck in that traffic for about 45mins (which is not good with sleepy drivers at that hour). There was a big rig involved in that too with a smashed-beyond-recognition Corolla & a Civic. There were multiple scenes of…

Yes, it’s fair to say that you should let Science spread irrespective of the method and Greene’s doing a stellar job at that. I’m not pressuring the courts to drill into Greene’s head and alter his personality... and you’d be wrong if you’re judging my comment based on this particular appearance with Colbert, he’s…

Yes, much less than Michio Kaku.

Fair point...

Same here... but perhaps not the beer part :)

Danke... that is better.
