The people who want this have their money in Raytheon and Halliburton. So, in a way, they are putting their money where their mouth is.

I'm sure it's technically possible to reverse engineer the software, but there are also "dumb" chargers that require no software or app. They're more reliable and cheaper, and there's no risk of being locked out when a company stops supporting its software.

Me too. They had an old address I lived at five years ago. I'm shaking, I'm shaking.

Check with Intel, not whoever you bought the chip from. They extended the warranty and will replace bad chips. For most models I believe it was extended from 1 to 3 years.

Ah, of course. Noted and fixed.

Reminds me of that MF DOOM song:

"Sit in the court and be their own star witness. / 'Do you see the perpetrator?' / 'Yeah, I'm right here.'"

I'd take either one, but both is just a great deal

The Israel/Palestine conflict and its ancillary conflicts like Israel/Hezbollah are not about religion. They are about the explusion of indigenous peoples from Palestine who have now lived as refugees in occupied territories or camps in bordering countries for four generations.

The idea that this is some age-old religious conflict is not historically accurate. These conflicts all trace back to the colonization of Palestine and the expulsion of half its population in the mid-20th century.

His "charisma" only appeals to a certain subset of Americans. Sure, he has fanatical support in much of the Republican base, but he has low overall favorability ratings and turns off a lot of moderate voters.

I am actually glad it's Trump and not another Republican who's on the ticket. I think he's easier to beat. I am more scared of what happens when smoother, more coherent Republicans begin campaigning on the same platform without the chaos and cringe of Trump.

No, I condemn all attacks against civilians. Hard to imagine, I'm sure, for someone who sees only one belligerent's citizens as human.

But I am pointing out the ludicrous misrepresentation of history that Hezbollah "started" any aspect of this conflict. Hezbollah was created in response to Israel's invasion of Lebanon. Israel invaded Lebanon because the PLO was launching attacks on Israel from southern Lebanon. The PLO was in Lebanon and before that in Jordan because they were driven out of their native homeland and made refugees due to the colonization of Palestine.

There is no aspect of this conflict that does not tie directly back to the violent disappropriation and explusion of the Palestinian people from their land. The conflict is and has always been about theft of land and homes, which continues unabated through the present day.

The "fight" started with the colonization of Palestine, the theft of indigenous land, and the expulsion of half the native populace. Naming a random date or event in the past couple of years as the "start" of this conflict is brazenly dishonest.

Every year, Israel expands its land seizures in occupied Palestine, but for some reason you don't count that as sustaining hostilities. Sounds an awful lot like you're willing to excuse Israeli terrorism while holding others to a different standard.
