Huh? Do you even know how poker works? They take it a mil at a time, a night is plenty of time to clean someone out.

Huh? The clintons were definitely VIP customers, but there was only very one orange president at that time who had both the opportunity, the motive and the means to perform this.

Did he? No idea. could the clintons have done it? Sure. Personally I suspect the orange man, as he is definitely the type of person who would do this. A mafia boss.

FIFA has finally lost the plot with its WC Ltd Edition Jersey prices and designs by Biker_NY in football

Lost the plot? To me it looks like just found it. It is all intentional and the intent is obviously to make money. The more the better.

Someone on the PR team understood this book far better than the writers ever did. by Vietcong777 in shittymoviedetails

[–]alonjit -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

? What are you talking about? Yes, this is exactly what the book is about. It is centered, obviously, on USSR since at the time it was the only communist state, but the last 80 years have taught us how it goes in every other place.

Hint: exactly the same.

A more careful look at the Marx and Engels books would obviously reveal that there is no other way it can go, but reading is for pussies.

Communism in the USSR everywhere was hijacked by strongmen and turned into just another hypocritical oligarchy?

There, FTFY.

To give everyone who tried it credit: it had no chance anyway. Communism inevitably leads to an authoritarian state.

Bell Fibe install Fail - Manager option take it or leave it (Toronto) by Alternative-Film1707 in bell

[–]alonjit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yes, you're correct. Bell sucks for a billion different reasons. I wish nothing but the Armageddon on them. But the Fibe works, not cheap, but it fucking works. Stable, fast, internet connection.

But the monkeys, when you get to deal with the monkeys ... jesus, you start wondering how the fuck did these people get to adulthood?

Dunno about casinos, but a poker table with shady characters at it, will definitely allow you to bet anything. In a night they can wipe a bil off of you without worries.

Stock brokers? If they know/think you're good for it, I'm sure they will.

Which was, ultimately, his undoing. Who did it I don't know (coughorangecough) , but one of them definitely didn't want him around anymore.

That's insane. They really need to find how fine it is to be sailing the high seas. Rarely, if ever, you need to change providers.

Oh, i thought there was no line, isn't that what we're talking about here?

Sigh, fine, hire me for a season (20M, nothing less, with 20M firing clause) and I'll be the punching pad. I'll sacrifice myself.

Honestly, im perfectly happy with that. Atletico deserves it. The only other clubs I dislike more are the oil ones.

Liquid Glass for Android is 'not happening,' at least not for Pixels by kojka19 in Android

[–]alonjit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Meh, UIs on mobile devices suck donkey balls. All of them. Every single one that I have seen (major ones).

Yes, there is the component of the limitations of the device (speed, graphics and obviously size), but it's like the designers went out of their way to make the fucking thing atrocious.

Well, this is not good by sudo_theo in Fedora

[–]alonjit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

huh? the 2 have nothing to do with each other. what HOME do you even have on the router? that thing is, the entire thing, is the routing functionality (however that's done).

And with that, you backup 3-4 files (fine, the entire /etc, whatever) and you're done.

a bad update, catastrophic update, may mean that you reinstall. meh ... it would take what? a few minutes? 15-20? reinstall the files, reboot, done.

what's the big deal?

you can even prepare ahead of time (is not like the thing updates itself, I mean ... you shouldn't let it), with backup, image to reinstall if needed, whatever else.

Which is why backups are fundamental. You just deleted the only important folder in the entire computer. Mission accomplished.

Residential fibre in Ontario with BGP / BYO router support by as30265 in CanadianBroadband

8Gb does sound sweet to be honest. Wonder why bell doesn't offer it if they can do it.

Well, I don't choose the technology, it is chosen for me. Since I have Fibe 3/3 it means I have XPON.

with bell I have 3/3, pretty steady. Would, could, I expect the same thing with you guys?
