This could explain the relatively less popularity of electronic music in America vs. much of the rest of the world but I'm not sure that's even the case anymore. So maybe Americans don't like jazz cause they like electronic a

US government officials have a long history of adopting stupid policies that do the exact opposite of what they claim. Sanctions. War on drugs. Iraq war. Hell, pretty much everything they do never has the intended consequences but others. I

People don't want to acknowledge such events because they are not simply artifacts of the past. Racism and racist violence is going on right now. Slavery is happening to millions of people in our prisons right now. People don't wa

You think there's a rationale behind the drug schedules? I mean other than locking up undesirables? There you go, that's your problem. I recommend learning about history. That'll get rid of such silly, incoherent thoughts.

Yeah, another war on drug producers and traffickers is exactly what we need. It worked wonders with the Mexican and Latin American cartels. It was incredibly successful. Hell a few hundred thousand or so dead Mexicans. That's success,

No one is going to go to jail. Nothing at these companies or others that will take their place will change. None of this will help people who are addicted especially since the only thing that can help them now is to not get cut off from the

By your insanely stupid logic, buying anything is unethical. Do you understand how markets work? Clearly not. Has Amazon even admitted it was a mistake and not a marketing ploy as others have suggested? No. So how do you know they didn&#x27

And who wrote the laws allowing bribery? Congress. That's where the blame lies. If you create a system that can be abused, it will. If you create a system that's corrupt, why are you surprised when there's corruption? Blame t

I don't blame TurboTax (Intuit). They do what any company in that position would. Hell, a good percentage of companies that exist probably shouldn't exist. TurboTax is definitely one of them. I blame our shit government for making

No, we have nothing custom set up. It's just Outlook 365. They send you to one password change page sometimes and another at other times. They both have different password policies. Microsoft is just shit as far as security is concerne

Same here. I adopted introverted patterns of life because I had no one to spend time with most of the time. Now I get anxiety when going to meet people. I still do it or try to and once I'm there, I enjoy it a lot. Of course, it has to

Enpass did the same thing, removing wifi syncing. They claim it will be added back in the next version, but many versions have passed and it was not. I finally gave up and synced to the cloud. Let the NSA have a crack at it if they want to.

> 40 hours is nothing for a single person with few responsibilities. Wrong. I'm single with few responsibilities and 40 hours is still way too much. Just because you like to be a workaholic doesn't mean you can generalize that

Rumors are a new mbpro is coming this fall. Or next year. So I guess about four to five years or so. It makes sense that they ditched the regular mb because it was garbage. You may be right, and I hope you are, but I doubt it. If they were

I think that is one, of many, exact reasons they are illegal. The government will do anything to protect big pharma and these substances are not patentable. Nor do they need to be taken often for beneficial effects. That scares the living s

I don't know who Andrew Feldmar is, but he is one incredibly stupid psychologist, likely one of the dumbest in the world if not the dumbest if what you say is true.
