TIL; 30 Afghans killed today were not pine nut farmers, but its somehow insulting to the survivors.

Are these comments for real? How can anyone be against the truth? The whole point to PV was taping facts. None of the content has ever been debunked.

can anyone tell me why we aren't using the mega-millions lottery to encode our vote with our private hash? We already have a completely reliable voting mechanism. If anyone thought that was insecure imagine the uproar.

The only determination I can make is that there is no proof that the same neutrino was observed. All that was observed is neutrinos in two places. Probably are neutrinos everywhere you look.

The Expired Passport contained the valid visa, forgotten in a desk in USA and the Current Passport is in my possession in Bogota.
It Is a B2. I'm hoping the valid visa is in my "electronic footprint" with TSA/immigration?
or am I stuck / delayed with getting a temporary visa to re-enter ?

If I am a Colombian Citizen with a multivisit visa, and I don't have the actual visa because it is attached to an expired visa which is forgotten in the U.S. -
What are the chances of re-entering USA? Is the visa information in the computer or is it useless without the physical stamp?

y'all are just using big words to express income redistribution. which. doesn't. work.
simply take the extreme case where everyone gets free resources. it is unsustainable.
natural selection is sustainable. that's how we got here.
anything else is just a deferment of the inevitable.

I have carried a 2nd "development" phone for more than 5 years. Currently an S3.
Not only provides sandbox to play in, it has twice provided an acceptable backup during repairs to primary with only a simcard swap.

because fuck all that.
I am seriously burned out on timeshifting bullshit.
They should have 3 or so live channels to cover realtime, and one fluffer channel for the uncommitted clueless. Everything properly DVR'd enabled.
Until then I'm just youtubing on my own time.
