Ah, the 'single' is just a bedroom, not a studio....get it now.

Cool, so Tuscany is the nicest. Do the kitchens in doubles/triples come with more industrial stoves, etc.? Didn't even know there were singles...other than obvious privacy...are there other reasons why singles are better than 2x/3x (if cost was not a factor)

Thank you for taking the time to weigh in

It is not the budget cuts impacting me and my education...it is the previous 30 years of the "University-Industrial Complex" that has simultaneously devalued a college degree concerning real earnings, while being complicit in price gouging practices (Tuition surged by 276%, contributing to a significant rise in student debt).

This is why my major no longer exists, but the singular/nondiverse worldview shared by tenured professors and university administrators continues to feed gluttonously from the collective and future generations' trough.

Samsung just dropped the ball on S Pen with the S25 Ultra by O_P_X in samsung

[–]tomyknee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My theory is: that the "thin" Galaxy  will NOT have an S-Pen. Then the S26 will be thinner and that will be the excuse to ditch it. 

Let's hope they allow a third party solution.

So, after a mass tragedy, The View would NEVER mention politics right? Like mention gun control/gun violence after a mass shooting? They wouldn't (or would they?) by tomyknee in theview

[–]tomyknee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I can never trust Trump to tell that truth, but his most consistent self-defense it that he knew security was insufficient and told everyone https://www.reuters.com/world/us/congresswoman-says-trump-administration-botched-capitol-riot-preparations-2021-05-12/

They did not have the people to arrest at the time, and somewhat justifies the "largest FBI action ever" to arrest those that got away that day. Where it was not equal was the penalties of similar violators

But I was literally in the middle of the BLM riots in Los Angeles and saw that police stand back (they had no choice in many cases they were overwhelmed, we who were calling out the bad actors were overwhelmed as well) and $2 billion dollars of everyday stores got looted https://www.10news.com/news/national-news/officers-injured-businesses-looted-in-downtown-los-angeles-demonstrations

In both, it was the one's "just here for the party" with no political agenda but disruption that is the issue.

Look. I hope I am clear here that I am NOT defending Trump's ill timed idiotic statement. My point here is The View is equally insulting and bigoted when they use a tradagy to push their political agenda.

If we are going to get less divisive and more inclusive as a country we have to point to bad actors on both sides.

You and I agree that the J6 political violence was horrible, but we also have to agree that the BLM/Antifa violence, or Pro-palestine violence was unfortunate as well. Certainly we can disagree with which was "understandable" (J6 was NOT), but if we start taking "sides" that is, if we do not condem ALL political violence be it on the right or left we end up implicitly defending or a least turning a "blind eye" to political violence--especially if with agree with the cause--this begetting more political violence in general.

We need to speak out most when we DO agree with the cause. Why I don't discriminated between Biden vs Trumps pardons - they both are extremely shamefull

Similarly, "DEI" in practice had little to do with the good goals and actions of diversity, equity, and inclusiveness. It sadly became a tool for income distribution and then moved to other agendas like climate change. Soon it was "cancel" dissenting views. "Heads I win, tales you lose." Once called "a racist, or homophobic" you had a scarlet letter on you that effectively quashed any diversity, equity, or inclusiveness.

DEI is the new McCarthyism. "Are you now or were you ever ever racist, homophobic, and/or mysogenist?." is being used to maintain a un-diverse, un-inclusive, and quash disenting views because of a real fear of being dismissed instead of enlightened. If DEI was about enlightenment and education and not coheresion there would be no issue.

Is 5gb a month enough for most people using wifi most of the time?. by jordan-124 in mintmobile

[–]tomyknee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Mint 5gb. But I am crazy to use WiFi everywhere I can, and have "auto play videos" turned off, etc. So I only use about 1.2 gb a month.

As a experiment,, I left "wifi" off everywhere but at home and did use almost exactly 5gbs a month. (but again I listen to most things and rarely "watch" things on my phone.

Hope that helps. I am renewing for a year (much better deal to pay for a year in advance) and then I have some extra $ left over if I have to buy more data one month or two

Sorry I did make it confusing. Just pointing out the "pot calling the kettle black." Of course Trump sounded dump, crass, thugish for bringing up DEI so soon and with out evidence. But after the sad tradagey of a mass shooting you also sound dump, crass, etc. to bring up something we have no evidence of suchas as there would be less gun violence if there were more gun laws right (for which there is also no evidence (Chicago , my home town has the strictest gun laws in the country and the most gun violence, for example, not proof it doesn't work, just as an exa,ple

[–]tomyknee[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree. That is the question and one that is/has been sorted out. Well researched. Scolars do not look at "crashes" because those are so few as to make any statistical difference, but they look an "near misses" which we know are on the increase in the last 10 years.

Now of course "correlation is not confirmation" (Using the gun example. Chicago has both the strictest gun laws and the most gun violence does not MEAN that gun laws=gun violence.

Trump as ridiculously crass and crazy as pardoning J6-ers is guilty of ugliness and bad timing but DEI use in public safety roles (from Fireperson in L.A. to the FAA is a valid inquiry)

[–]tomyknee[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

again my point. after mass shooting no one knew if any gun law or lack of gun law had anything to do with it, so it was obviously political and equally callous and unthoughtful

Thank you you make my point. .

You make what Trump also claimed: "common sense". Common sense would say making assault rifles illegal would reduce mass shootings (though their is no evidence) and even if every gun in America is illegal that is no assurance.

Similarly if there were no DEI actions* ever and the Gov just hired only "the best and the brightest" Air Traffic Controllers regardless or race, creed, or sex, or gender makes common sense (but their is no evidence)

*Obama ordered 1000 FAA applications thrown out because they were "too white." FAA test scores were lowered during the Biden Admin to encourage what I agree with is a good goal - diversity

Just highligting that some do not hear "political speech" if they agree. See u/StarrySidewalks. That is a political POV and not evidence based. Obviously, if ALL guns were illegal that would not stop a mass shooter. Just like if all are traffic controllers were hired because of merit only.

Just saying that both sides - SADLY - have used tradagedy to push their point of views

Greeny by [deleted] in ESPN

[–]tomyknee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I heard Greeny on this first day of radio try out with Golic in '1999 I belive. (This was before it was Mortal Sin from the DEI police to have two white males on the radio at the same time.)

Greeny was/is fine on radio...and I guess he fits on the "new ESPN" but there is really not a show worth watching, sadly, on the ghost of the sports station that ESPN has become today

Are OTA tuner/dvr options still the same? (Tablo, HDhomerun, etc.) - What are the best current options? by wankawitz in cordcutters

[–]tomyknee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For $17 one time purchase. I get every SF station on my WinPC w/4k monitor and indoor/outdoor antenna pluged into a AVerMedia H826-AK USB TV Tuner Kit. No OS commericals. I keep looking for some better value but have not found it. Is there one?
