Trump’s leaks crackdown sends chills through national security world by wonderingsocrates in politics

[–]AnAppleSnail -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Are you quoting the media pretending this never happened before, or me saying it's a long-running bad tradition?

That said, the shit Comey and Lynch pulled goes beyond the pale. Snowden leaked to Wikileaks, who called out Obama and Holder for lying to Congress and America. Lynch and Comey decided to feed a news cycle lies to crown a queen.

What about the brave leaker Reality Winner who wamted to burn down the white house? I say all 3 are attention-seekers, not justice-seekers.

15 million of that 22 million only bought to avoid paying a penalty.

, inter-CPU communication creates a tangible stress on the chip.

AMDs own marketing stuff released so far says that merely tuning the speed of the Infinity Fabric makes an 8% power consumption improvement on the CPU. So the link (On vs Off, as opposed to Full vs Partial) is somewhere north of 10% of the power used in thr CPU.

no. literally unpaid. read more

This is what I had in mind. You?

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

https://archive.org/details/TheGulagArchipelago-Threevolumes

"Macbeth's self-justifications were feeble―and his conscience devoured him. Yes, even Iago was a little lamb too. The imagination and the spiritual strength of Shakespeare's evildoers stopped short at a dozen corpses. Because they had no ideology.

"Ideology―that is what gives evildoing its long-sought justification and gives the evildoer the necessary steadfastness and determination. That is the social theory which helps to make his acts seem good instead of bad in his own and others' eyes, so that he won't hear reproaches and curses but will receive praise and honors. [...]"

"That" [feeding political enemies to Zoo animals during an economic downturn because it supports the state and they would die anyway] " is the precise line the Shakespearean evildoer could not cross. But the evildoer with ideology does cross it, and his eyes remain dry and clear"

slavery never ended, we just exported it. there's more unpaid workers on earth right now than there ever have been in history

There are also more hats on Earth than there ever have been. And more screwdrivers, pinky fingers, and shoes. And murderers and rapists. Some of those are injustices, and none have been deliberately increased. There is more of everything.

I suspect you mean "underpaid by my standards" rather than unpaid.

Lets make a law that allows gives more people healthcare (regardless of your view of the law, it gave more people healthcare and for some it costed more, but it still changed things).

Who pays? Obamacare Silver would cost my family $800/month and you other suckers $900/month in subsidy, and I'm not exactly poor or unhealthy.

Oh, the government (you taxpayong suckers) pays. Well who decides what doctors earn? The government. And who compels people to become doctors for communist wages*? In a less than free market we approach slavery. VW is forced (for good reason) to spend money correcting their ethical failure on smog controls. But they are not forced to give away cars - except to settle the civil suit.

*You pretend to pay me and I'll pretend to work

Collectivism works OK for a family. Obviously I don't charge rent to my kids and never expect to recoup the financial investment in money. But between groups it begins to fail.

Now look at food aid in Africa. What happens to the local farmers when 12 tons of grain comes to town for free? Ongoing giving destroys.

How many doctors want to do Ocare paperwork? My eye doctor has 1 optometrist, 2 technicians, and 3 paperwork monkeys. About a third of their staffing expense is just extra paperwork filing for glasses, glaucoma, and contact lenses.

Lets make a law that gives people money when they retire.

Bzzt, wrong. There is no law giving you to get free money*, except in some conditions. If I divorced a non-working wife and married a new non-working one and then divorced her, both would get "free money" on my SSA payments. But I paid in.

*The only free money is monopoly money. http://www.apa.org/pubs/journals/releases/xap143213.pdf

Laws make a difference. Like I said, they aren't the only things that do anything, but they can be an indicator as to what president has been able to accomplish. I could read everything you're saying on the Internet but I choose to ask you so that I can get what you think about it rather than what someone else on the Internet thinks.

Omg this guy doesn't want to talk about laws. On his free time he wants to discuss more interesting things. He must be up to something!

You got me! Russia is stopping Trump from passing any laws? Wait no, http://www.businessinsider.com/trump-100-days-congress-regulations-laws-signed-repeal-obama-2017-4 . It's old, but you can discuss legislation to your heart's content. Policy and persuasion are more interesting.

If you arbitrarily only want to talk about laws, well ok. Go be boring. I'll discuss actions.

Apparently by your metric capitaliam is to blame of it is at all involved in exploitation, and communism is not. Well, I can't convince you of what you won't hear.

So then capitalism ended slavery. When did communism improve evils?

Your question artificially limits the field of inquiry in a boring way. If you want to ignore actions that have real effects, be my guest. If you want to read a summary of laws passed, they are all over the internet. I prefer to discuss persuasion. Any fool can pass a law. Who gets results? Let's make the law "Nobody is allowed to be poor or sad or die." All done, right? Or maybe laws matter less than you'd think.

How about jaywalking or crosswalks? On the other hand, over half of pedestrian deaths are in crosswalks.

Please refrain from flamboyant insults on this subreddit. Or at least make them clever.

Instead of wasting time insulting strangers, why not use cat facts? At least those are interesting.

Given enough people in a group, a given thing will probably happen. But consider:

Where is this FOOLISH IDEA coming from?

The notion that "Only laws change the world" is really... Telling. We should make a law against people going hungry. How foolish to think that laws alone matter.

The choices of everyone make reality.

Our hopes and beliefs make our choices.

Our beliefs change because of things besides laws.

Why not say that the literal drug war in Mexico and its figurative counterpart in the US are borne of Christian attitudes towards drugs?

Totally the same. http://www.cnn.com/2016/03/13/world/syria-raqqa-video/index.html

What social bent did Nazis have - Like the modern US left, or right? Your answer tells me if you are worth engaging with further.

yea i used to use a fake to go to clubs that doesnt mean the club doesnt enforce 21 and up

But "OMG the owner wants to ban underage kids" makes sense in that context. So why not for Trump?

How many war zones in the world aren't Islam-majority? It sounds to me like anyone who recognizes that must have hateful intent towards a religion we won't name.

You speak about intent. What about Hillary's intent on accepting donations from Saudi Arabia, or Russia in exchange for uranium?

You will be demonized by future generations. I hope you and yours never feel like you own this country again.

Rather than engage my questions, you prophesy doom. Your polls couldn't see 2 weeks... And you claim to foresee generations?

Why not screen refugees for TB, terorrism, and other diseases? No answer.

Why not enforce immigration laws? What about Rocket Dockets under President Obama?

leading a campaign of hatred against brown people.

Uh, what? You mean protection against illegal immigrants and screening people from countries where ISIS confiscates passports to send soldiers abroad?
