What gets me is this claim that Russia or China is going to take the island. First of all the U.S. has the strongest military in the world, stealth bombers that still can’t be caught, the largest Navy, the best logistics, and you know all those nukes. Add to that the fact that we’re (at the time of writing) a member of NATO and if Greenland was attacked by Russia or China it wouldn’t be just the U.S. it would also be all NATO members. The whole argument is just a dumb as the mouth they’re coming out of.

And yes I know it’s really about controlling future sea lanes, drilling for under sea oil, and mining minerals… and satisfying, maybe for a day, trump’s greed.

It’s been a while since I saw the interview but Malcom Nance said something along the lines of, I’m not saying trump is a Russian asset, but he sure is doing everything a Russian asset would do.

and it gets conservative panties in a wad.

No need to single out Lindsey Graham, I’m sure it upsets all the “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” snowflakes.

I really hope the coming crash (stock, lending, the dollar, ect.) wipes them out, since most are rich only on paper.

What are ya, a Galah? It’s clearly an EU, do ya really think I’d take a spoon on walkabout? Piss off with this spoon nonsense.

Actually we’re long overdue, the time to dismantle the DHS was the same day it was created.

That’s not a European Union, this is a European Union.

I know it’s not totally accurate but this got an audible laugh out of me.

TIL, I always knew it had something to do with farming but a little digging revealed that it was to allow farmers to extend their work day and to conserve fuel during WW1.

Well it’s been over 100 years since that war ended, I think we can safely remove daylight savings time now. I doubt Franz Ferdinand is going to be on any tours and I think The Kaiser is no longer a threat.

That sucks, I didn’t realize how lucky I was to have a parent who accepted the diagnosis and worked to help me. Sorry it was so ruff for you.

The beauty of being diagnosed at 12, my mom had to fill out the paperwork.

I use 24 hour time all the time in my job, I also have to use the time zone. I’m good with converting right now.

Daylight savings… yeah burn it to the ground and a hex on those who implemented it.

Honestly that’s not a bad idea, but take it a bit further. Publicly list ANY business that is found to provide services to ice. They stay at Hilton, add Hilton to the list, they eat at Denny’s, add Denny’s to the list, ect.

Their business is B2B now. Nadella is focused on that, gaming is a nice side business to him, and the home user wasn’t profitable enough to care about keeping.

Right now my fortune 500 employer is all in on Microsoft, they pay for around 200,000 Microsoft business licenses and about 2/3’s of those PCs also have a 365 business license, plus they have Microsoft servers with their own individual licenses in every state and almost every country. And that’s just one company, think about how many companies are all in on Microsoft and you can see why B2B is what he cares about.

Still fit for duty, operation meat shield go!

He’s generating profit, that’s all that matters to the shareholders.

Screams in Debian…

It’s ok, it’s real…now just tell me about the bunnies.

Yep, I will never forget the picture of two fat old men grinning from ear to ear wearing shirts that said “I’d rather be Russian than democrat”.

Damn it, beat me to it. Though I was going to say gamers instead of nerds, though both work.
