It's always a little odd seeing the people who rely on the benefits of bigger government constantly doing what they can to have a smaller government.

I'm not so sure he's smarter. I think he believes he has more time than Putin believes he has. And he's probably right about that.

There has been gender selection for ivf for over a decade now. The sperm can be separated by X or Y and only one can be used to fertilize the eggs.

So, is that a right away thing, or does that mean 2 or 3 weeks from now?

The only thing stopping you from eating less and/or doing more physical labor is you. Of course, those fit dudes from the back then had less of an option.

You need to find a better way to say the invisible generation.

I think Haiku looks pretty cool, but this is kind of like comparing a car with all kinds of features to something with 3 out of 4 wheels, a cobbled in dining room chair, and no doors. The engine is also cool, but the transmission only has 2 gears.

Haiku doesn't have nearly the feature parity to replace Windows, and it took Linux the better part of 30 years to get there.

"We need small government!" So instead of getting screwed by the guy who has to stand in front of you and say he's going to screw you, we'll have a bunch of guys hiding behind shell companies screwing us and bribing the politicians to make it legal.

Yeah, those were the days, back when more often than not a Windows upgrade was also an improvement. As much as I loved Win2k, WinXP was even better. Let's not talk about Vista and while Win7 was nice, it wasn't much of a UX improvement.

Ever tried to use all the hidden features on the sides and corners? Absolute nightmare with a mouse, fairly reasonable with touch. The UX was very dependent on the hardware being used.

And I hate the bing search bar, too, don't worry. Never used Cortana, occasionally use the search at the bottom of the screen, only select from installed apps or documents. I already know how to use a web browser, thanks, and they all let me choose my search engine, too.

It absolutely would. Unfortunately, if I remember the details of this circus when it was happening, there are no criminal penalties attached to those amendments, so the only people who can do anything about it are Congress. And what happens if Congress is controlled by your party? Well, exactly what happened when Trump was impeached twice for actions that were at least as significant...
