What if I told you there were millions of gun owners out there that don't subscribe to any of the cliché things you listed in your comment? Gun owners aren't a monolith caricature like you imagine.

Boy, this is nostalgic. My dad had one of these, and I remember writing BASIC programs on it. Nothing of value, but it sure did impress dad!

Sorry to hear that. My experience with government insurance has been with Medicare, Medicaid, and the VA, and to say I've been unimpressed is an understatement. I guess I should be thankful my insurance is ~$1000/mo, and hasn&#x27

This is my thought, as well. When your private insurance company stinks, you find a new insurer. When you're forced to pay the government for health insurance, you're stuck without options. Health insurance isn't one of the s

It's sort of wild to think that Amazon purchased Alexa.com in 1999 for ~$250M in stock, and that stock would be worth more than $7B today, if my math is correct. Bought a website ranking company, used the company's name as the nam

Reading the first couple of sentences, it looks like Contempt of Congress applies only if you ignore a subpoena. It doesn't appear that Congress used subpoena powers (I may be wrong in this assumption) for this request, and Gab's

I may be out of the loop a bit, but do these "requests" have any real power? It seems like subpoenas would have been the appropriate legal instrument if they needed to carry the full weight of Congress.

Who considers The Atlantic to be an alt-right mouthpiece? They unabashedly lean left.

Yeah, running locally would be my preference. I get "Antitrust (2001)" vibes from this, but that's the tinfoil hat side of me.

I agree, but they weren't even penalized, so there's zero deterrent. It appears the court took into consideration that the company is bankrupt but failed to see the apparent criminal action taken by the company and CEOs.

How this isn't a criminal case is beyond me. The dissenting judge is correct: if there is no monetary penalty, what's the point of the judgment?

Same. Give me the ability to hold fractional ownership of real-world assets (e.g., real estate, buildings, resources, etc.). I'm not interested in a 100% speculative concept without having real-world assets backing it up.

With so many different cryptocurrencies available, why choose the one (Bitcoin) that's least useful as a form of payment? It takes a very long time to get confirmations, and the fees are too high to be useful for small transactions. Th
