…but at the time we had no clear idea what a real landing would end up like…

Surveyor - “What am I? Chopped liver???”

I would argue it is closer to 60 years.

They are only two years apart.

The purpose of the Electoral College was to guarantee that the president was elected by the states and not the people. So you are half right, the electoral college can interfere if it’s not what the states want. While there are some states that want to always go with the popular vote not all are on board.

One of my favorite fun facts about video game consoles is that both the PlayStation and CD-i exist largely due to Nintendo being an ass to Sony and Phillips while looking for a CD-ROM add-on for the SNES to compete with the Sega CD. After getting the run around, both companies basically said ‘fine fuck it we are making our own consoles with blackjack and hookers…’

Did they ever make the excess ink parts user replaceable?

That they weren’t in some models kept me from getting one when I was in the market a few years ago.

It’s almost one step further to be honest; by tying politics to religion they have both tapped people’s blind faith and essentially equated not being a conservative to being a sinner.

I’ve heard things like “I am voting for [candidate] because they are a good Christian” all my life growing up in the southernish US.

In some ways the WiiU was more powerful. For instance the Korok Forest area isn’t nearly as laggy on the WiiU. Also the WiiU was powering 2 screens at once.

The Switch is barely 5 years newer than the WiiU and uses a mobile chipset like a phone (an Nvidia Tegra specifically) where the WiiU used the same desktop class chipset that was in the Xbox 360 and PS3.

I don’t understand why so many people here keep saying that it’s too hard to make a small phone when all these companies literally make watches with 5G connections…

Spending profits on stock buybacks and bonuses is literally the opposite of wanting to grow.

No they do not. They need to break even only. Profit is the result of charging customers too much, paying employees too little, or enshitification.

One the one hand I get what you are saying. On the other hand people absolutely remember Newt Gingrich and Mitch McConnell. Republicans who were counter to Democratic presidents.

I would hazard a guess that people like Henry Kissinger, Ollie North, and Arthur Laffer won’t be forgotten any time soon either.

Which is the part that I really don’t get; How fucking dumb do you have to be to think you will still be rich and powerful after the Dollar is worth nothing? Not to mention what’s going to happen to Judges and Congresspersons when they become useless to the administration.

If you are in dire need, and haven’t already, try finding a local salvage yard (junkyard, breakers yard, etc. depending on your location) and pulling the parts you need from there.

Betas outlived VHSs by several years. It wasn’t Betas that caused Sony to act like that with BluRays, it was DATs.

I don’t know… I am starting to think that’s the plan. That way they have somebody divorced from the situation waiting on the bench when shit finally hits the fan.

If memory serves it’s from this episode.
