No. Just, no. I mean what the hell, man?!?

That does not make any sense at all. I get someone to invest a bunch of money to research your language and culture, convince you not to worry cause I'm gonna take care of it, only to sell the work I "volunteered" to do back to you, that's nothing other than the most vile, deceptive, and manipulative way to extract "value" from the world around me. This utterly sociopathic and depraved behavior is exactly what is being talked about when people insist that "job creators" deserve praise for their efforts.

Someone ought to make this a meme! 🤪😝

Isn't the headline misleading? Keep seeing clickbait headlines about this, but I thought it was a matter of improper documentation, not that it wasn't actually titanium.

So tired of what passes for "journalism" these days. Thanks, RepubliQans! /s

Only unborn and in the womb, though. Note the ridiculous push against IVF recently 🤪

What am I missing, here?

Well, for starters, you seem to be missing anything resembling a coherent argument... 🤪

Umm, no. Just...yeah, no.

The main problem with this theory is that Microsoft is absolutely abysmal at user end security, and they always have been. Frankly, they do not understand the issue.

But, more to the point, the whole TPM/secure boot stuff is a compromise; originally (I think this was about the time of Vista), they partnered with OEMs to have them include a DRM chip that made it literally impossible to install any non-windows OS on your laptop. They've managed to still get an implementation of TPM that makes switching your OS too confusing/difficult for the average user.

Anyway, bottom line is they only care about money, and they neither care or even understand the security needs of the end user.

The keyword here is "Primary"; in a Primary election, you are running against one or more candidates from your own party, and if you win, your name goes onto the General ballot.

This is a last resort, and will almost certainly get the Microsoft account used for the purchase banned.

But... they've long since figured out how to monetize without the content. So, that's a hard disagree from me...

That's a terrible argument. And love how you blame the obstructionism on the one being obstructed from accomplishing their goals.

So, no, we have already seen the action. He did something. Will the sociopathic fascist a-holes in government overturn the action ALREADY TAKEN is what remains to be seen.

No, this is absolutely terrible advice!

You, as the parent, make sure the child is currently safe, then give yourself a timeout. No joke! It's incredibly difficult to destress with an infant around. The moment you are at all tempted by ideas like dosing your kid, it's time to step away - isolate yourself, recenter, and try a better approach (even if it's the hundreth time).

Anyway, I've seen multiple statements by qualified professionals about melatonin not being safe for kids. Unless you have sources to back your claim, I completely reject it. That's just the way it works...

Don't bother. Without any details about the ballots, this means literally nothing. I'm not wasting any more of my time on such rage bait. Heck, I'll bet money it was Republicans doing it just cause they were that afraid of losing.

You may feel free to ignore my account; I certainly won't be noticing yours anymore!
