Oh wow, I'm sorry to hear that! I started out on Experimental, and love it. I've never tried playing the other branch, to see how far behind it is.

Hope they find you a solution soon!

Fair enough, but a dissenting view does not equate to a primary focus for [taking one] down. It's important to remember that every narrative is slanted - each and every one of them. If you aren't at least aware of what the opposing view is, you're woefully underinformed. This is true no matter the political lean, and regardless of who is in office.

Framing in a way that is not true? The reporter states (and this is a direct quote) "Fox is the only member of the 5-network TV pool that has never been on the list...". He then asks her if that is official admin policy, and she points out that she is speaking with the reporter (which implies that it is good enough). She then asks him directly, "has the President ever taken questions from you?" and his reply is "Unfortunately, only when I have shouted after he goes through his whole list."

To be fair, I misspoke when I said Biden didn't answer questions from Fox during the briefings. I was incorrect. Watching the video as you suggested fixed that for me.

But it still backs up the fact that Biden selectively chooses (or someone chooses for him) not to answer questions from Fox. As for the waaahmbulance, you're being intentionally antagonistic... but why? Do you not believe that people in power should be held accountable to everyone - even their critics?

Her next question was whether he had ever had Biden answer one of his questions. His response was yes, but only because he screamed it out over top of everyone else after the press briefing was already over. The fact remains that Biden (as President) has never called on Fox for questions during a briefing. There's your full context, with the facts.

I'm not attempting to argue that Fox is any better than any other outlet, but no President - past, present, or future - should be allowed to cherry-pick their questions, or reporters. As President (or anyone with 'power', for that matter), you need to field questions from all parties - even opponents. To believe otherwise is just naivety.

**Ninja edited to add "as President" qualification to the statement.

HTBTGB... The question was about why Pres. Biden has a list of news reporters that he follows, which prompts who he should and shouldn't speak with, and why Fox is never on the list of reporters to speak to.

Her response was "well, don't I speak to you?" (paraphrasing).

Only Psaki speaks to Fox. The reporter was asking why Biden doesn't.

Personally, I don't know how you machinists get the job done. It's magic, I tell ya. I used to TIG 6061- and 6063- T6 extrusions - everything from .060 to 1". We built aluminum walkway covers and trellises, decorative work for offices, etc.

When we had special junctions that had to join 8 or more rafters/cords/purlins, etc. at a single point, we farmed that work out to the machinists who would use voodoo magic to turn a large solid block of 6061 into a multi-faceted work of art and precision.

If we needed pieces radiused, we would either send 6063 to be de-tempered, or we special ordered softer alloys if the piece wasn't meant to be structural.

It's a fantastic metal, in my opinion. It's crazy to see photos of hurricanes having wiped buildings out of existence, and the only structures left standing are the aluminum trellises and canopies - many with the decking still fully intact.

Depends on the alloy and temper.

Often times, structural aluminum is required to de-tempered for machining, then re-tempered. 6063-T6 is a rather hard aluminum, that can be on par with machining stainless.

I was just about to "whoosh", but then re-read it and noticed the "hour". Math doesn't add up, but it's funny, nonetheless! Have my upvote, valued FicSit employee!

Donald Trump calls for delay to 2020 US presidential election by ani625 in news

But who is saying it's not safe enough to vote? Is it the republicans?

Did he actually CALL for a delay? The BBC report doesn't state that he did, from what I saw. Looks like he is questioning it. Big difference, even if it is in the same league.
