  1. Sorry, no business case for that. It's up too much of the C-Suite's bonus.
  2. A lot of court houses won't even let you bring a cell phone in. Even if you're just there to pay a traffic ticket.
  3. Isn't that why we have over crowded prisons, repeat offenders, and a cycle of poverty? Idk what the right answer is, but kids like that need some serious discipline that they obviously don't get at home.
  4. Who says they didn't have concerns before? There have been many articles over the years about Google employees voicing concerns on various issues. The latest I can think of is how incognito mode isn't really anonymous.
  5. No s#!t! You don't do your job or talk s#!t and you get fired. I'm strongly considering calling out executives at my company face to face in a town hall because of how they've trashed the company, but I would fully expect to be fired for that.
  6. A top level job in manure management
  7. This is so weird... Good. But really weird. What change? Is he trying to appeal to a more moderate base now that he's got a taste of the crazy train?
  8. Maybe polling. Maybe Jesus spoke to him.
  9. Dude, isn't this how all the bills have been so far??? How is that "innovative"? This s#!ts been done for centuries.
  10. Yeah... It wasn't the technology that made it uber expensive causing budget over runs it was our military making major last minute program scope changes and trying to create a Figher Jet for all with an AF, Navy, and USMC version. Also, I would guess we don't properly push back on the suppliers to get the best possible deals. I wouldn't say it's light years, but it is probably the second best gen 5 fighter out there next to the Raptor (which is coming up on 20 years old). The F-35 has some of the best stealth technology out there, but the F-22 is still better. F- 22 also has super cruise (able to travel relatively long distances at Mach speeds), which the F-35 does not. F-22 also has thrust vectoring (better maneuverability), and F-35 does not. F-35 is a super computer though; target information can be shared between each fighter or AWACs to more effectively track and kill target and remain stealthy (enemies can track an aircraft's radar emissions). The jamming technology is newer/better. All the software has 20 years of improvements basically. We're not to torrenting on DSL anymore, we're streaming on fiber! All that said, the Russia SU-57 seems like a fraud. The stealth is poor at best (exposed screws and rivets, you can see the jet engine compressor blades, no coating on the canopy means the pilot and cockpit give a radar return). It is more maneuverable though, but that doesn't matter these days when you have missiles that travel hundreds of miles. Now the Chinese J-20, that's more worrisome. They have a much better grasp of what is needed to be effective than the Russians...
  11. Oooooor the unrest and outrage has started to die down now that the bad apples are being held accountable. Defund was always a stupid slogan, because what really needed to be done was to reform.
