A review.
I bought a Sony Blu-Ray player around Christmas time that has a lot of streaming built in, and moved the Roku to the bedroom. Not sure the features justify an upgrade for me right now, but if you don’t have such a device, it looks pretty cool.
There have been several city-killer-class impacts since 2001. We were just lucky they didn’t hit cities. And Chelyabinsk really dodged a bullet last year. You should support the B612 Foundation. Don’t expect the government to do anything about this.
Hiawatha Bray has what looks to be an interesting new book
It wants to spread the suffering:
As with the old lady and the fly, Venezuela’s government may be running out of encores. It can crack down on black-market activity, but that won’t make the shortages go away. It might redistribute the suffering a bit, but that’s not all it will do. The black market is often a sort of release valve for bad policy; shut it down, and you turn the formerly annoying into the totally intolerable.
There is, as Adam Smith once observed, “a lot of ruin in a nation.” President Nicolas Maduro seems determined to find out exactly how much Venezuela has left.
This is always how socialism ends. They’ve run out of other peoples’ money down there.
A whopping 40% of likely voters in Minnesota think he deserves re-election. That many?
He barely won the first time, and then only by “finding” votes at the last minute, as Democrats always seem to do in tight races.
There was an interesting discussion at the #SpaceTechExpo on Tuesday afternoon. An indefinite extension is one of the key recommendations in my book.
It’s being waged by Islam, not Republicans and conservatives, and to point that out is not “Islamaphobic.”
No, it’s not over, your not-so-Highness, and we will not cease our dissent.
Oh, and for the record? The debate isn’t over on climate, either. Whenever someone tells me that the debate is over, it’s a pretty good sign that it’s wishful thinking, and that they’re losing it.
Boo hoo. Senator Schumer says the ruling makes it harder for the IRS to intimidate the Tea Party.
That’s a feature, not a bug, Chuckie.
Leftism is a religion, Part 2,354,629:
Eich once made a $1,000 donation to Prop 8, in 2006, shortly before the pro-gay-marriage Senate candidate Barack Obama would be persuaded by the righteousness of the traditional marriage cause, and thus announce his conversion to the proposition that marriage must be as it had been eternally, a union between a man and a woman.
For some reason, the rabid Upper Income White Women (and Feminized White Men) of the tech industry don’t seem to think Barack Obama deserves criticism for that position, but they’re very sure that Eich should either recant or be fired.
As I noted on Twitter the other day, if I were Eich, I wouldn’t let these little fascists mau mau me. I’d tell them that if they really couldn’t tolerate working for such a hateful bigot, they know where the door is.
