negative.
something like 9-11 happens, thats large enough for someone to take a step back and re-assess their thinking. something like WWII happens? they BETTER take a step back and reassess their thinking.
but this? its bullshit reasons by a bullshit president running a bullshit administration built on saying whatever needed to be said in order to get into office.
thats not leadership. thats acting on a childish "i want those toys" tantrum.
and now that he has the toys, what he said in order to get them doesnt seem to matter to anyone. that... should worry people.
you can build a number of machines that will look right at home in the living room. with a bit of talent and some vision you can build a case for your HTPC that is more a work of art than a functional PC.
i actually hid my HTPC behind the 55" tv and no one was the wiser.
decimated- latin in its origin meaning removal of a tenth.
the particular group would be devided into tenths and each group would use some method to select which group would be executed. it didnt matter if everyone in that group was culpable or to what degree their responsibility their parts were. if they were selected the entire group was executed (while those responsible may have also gone free, but usually not) as a warning to the rest.
given the 'sue your customers into the ground' attitude media seems to have these days, decimated may very well be an apt term... to apply to their customer base.
capture card that can pick up OTA signals and record it. problem solved.
and with very little additional effort, i can then remove the commercials, and then i can store them on my HDD, and then i can watch them any time i want commercial free forever.
really? you're going to pick a game that was marked as adults only, marketed as adults only. originally sold in a brown wrapper and had a cover that was stamped with "Swedish Erotica", a moniker that was all about early 80s porn to decry how video game violence affects kids and then top it off with completely erroneous assumptions
a bit of an apples and oranges thing though isnt it?
my employer can (and does) say you cannot express political viewpoints with customers... but the government cannot say that I cannot express political viewpoints with customers.
what the government CAN do is say that my employer may set limitations which are within reason as to what topics i may or may not discuss during the course of my work related duties.
it would seem to me that the constitutional issue is not if companies can force you to give up those logins in return for employment.
its really if a state can pass a law that says they have that right.
as to the legality of companies placing you in a situation where you either give your logins up.. is that something that has really been tested before? i dont think it has but im sure someone will correct me if im not wrong..
imagine their surprise when the mysterious marsh shows up in court in person wearing his red poofball hat and pointing out that his name is stan, not salt.
you forgot a few more places:
my computer.
under my bed
my sock drawer
out in my garage
on my phone
.... i know im forgetting a fairly large stash somewhere...
just as soon as people start voting for elected officials that actually are men and women of quality and substance ready to do their part as public servants rather than sit back, create sound bites and accept kickbacks.
