Unfortunately it's very hard to buy a decent dumb TV these days.

I didn't realise it was just this one grandma that did all that.

Same as it ever was.

Boomers and Gen X did exactly the same thing that you're doing. Nothing. They just let the super rich elite screw the whole world up and now you're doing the same thing they did. Nothing.

If you want to act high and mighty you're not going to change the world by complaining on the internet. You have to stop the super rich.

Didn't he already repeatedly claim that he's fighting directly with the West?

Even in his own words what would this change?

I agree 100%. Public transport is the only sensible approach to getting people to stadiums. If it were my choice I wouldn't provide parking at the venue at all.

Parking garages costs a lot more than surface parking. And the amount of traffic which can leave is limited by the surrounding roads, not by the exits.

Edit: I'm not saying this is a good thing. I'm saying it's the reasoning of the people who build stadiums.

Recycled plastic is also inferior quality with worse structural properties so it's not really suitable for many applications.

That's absolutely not true. Bluetooth has many "profiles" which define different capabilities. Here's a list of them. These are all defined in the official bluetooth standards.

Maybe you were thinking of the "core specification" which defines the underlying protocol but doesn't define the profiles? But that's just the way they broke up the spec documents. The profiles are still official parts of bluetooth.

Apple's proprietary extensions for audio are not part of any official specification though.

A lot of larger companies like Compaq etc. were making "respectable" PCs by then and selling them in big quantities in direct competition to IBM.

If a comment is funny to the person giving it and offensive to the target it's not a joke, it's just bigotry.

C++ can do a lot of things but one thing it can't do is perform as poorly as python.

 

Ok, this is mainly just to see if there's anyone else here. But what's your favorite bass line to play?
