tbh I think it's pretty admirable that Trump refuses to disclose his taxes. It's nobody's fucking business, and the tradition of doing so is such a garbage excuse for the humblebrag that is a candidate's tax return.

Muh trickle down

Holy shit she blamed the housing crisis on the non-existent trickle down boogeyman

Trump is right about corporate taxes, though.

What did he say? I missed it.

Lower to 15%, Clinton's tax plan is garbage, etc.

Episode 1 sucked ass.

Big ol' titties and guns

Xboners, I got my network stuff taken care of but my mic is completely shot. I'm down to play anytime though.

This is an example of drastically misleading averages. "The average gun owner owns 8 guns" seems to imply that if we gathered 10 gun owners in a room, most would own 8 guns. In reality, just shy of half would own one to two, while most in the room would own three, and one would own a very high number of guns (as the article categorizes: 8-140).

While there are an estimated 55 million American gun owners, most own an average of just three firearms, and nearly half own just one or two, according to the survey results.

Then there are America’s gun super-owners – an estimated 7.7 million Americans who own between eight and 140 guns.

This kind of concentrated ownership isn’t unique to guns, firearms researchers noted. Marketing experts suggest that the most devoted 20% consumers will typically account for 80% of a product’s sales.

Azrael, the lead author of the study, said there was no research on “whether owning a large number of guns is a greater risk factor than owning a few guns”.

Reheating brewed coffee is bad juju. Ultimately you're doing very little more than heating up a regular cup of coffee. Cold brew isn't special, it just takes more ground and time because of a lack of heat.

You are correct about re-heating coffee it actually destroys some of the flavor notes. Also Cold Brew tends to have a sweeter taste with a thicker body, but it takes the same amount of coffee to water ratio as normal brewed coffee.

Cold brew uses twice as much coffee as a regular-strength pot of drip or French press.

Good tip for those that like their coffee less bitter: add a pinch or two of salt to the grounds before brewing. You can also just put a dash of table salt into a cup of coffee, but I've never done that so I can't speak to its efficacy.

Nope

Have you tried sacrificing something to it?

I fed it some toast but it's more of an english muffin guy.

Also, I've pretty much narrowed it down to a dead or faulty WAN port, so if anyone has fixed that before let me know. It's only 6 months old, so I don't see why hardware would be failing.

It's that new?

Doesn't it have a warranty?

Bought it new via third party on Amazon. I think I can still get it replaced or refurbished, but that takes time. I'd buy a new one now, then just sell the refurb. It's probably good to upgrade from N to AC anyway.

I've got a NETGEAR - AC1600 that's about in your price range.

Dual Band (2.3G and 5G) and Beamforming replaces directional antennas, and ensures the best quality signal on both higher end devices, and devices with less sophisticated networking capabilities.

It comes equipped with network storage capabilities via USB, and all bitrates can be optimized in the browser based control panel.

Netgear touched me in a bad place when I was a little boy, but I'll do some comparisons.

No love for Hungry Hungry Hippos?

Genji, Hanzo, McCree, Reaper, and Soldier are pretty much the same height, muscularity, etc. and she's arguing as if  Zarya, Mei and Ana don't exist.

In recognizing a pattern, she's definitely not wrong, but she's arguing that there's ZERO diversity

Try reading the last paragraph.

OT: I can somewhat understand why women are represented in a more narrow range of ages and body types; women lose physicality more rapidly as they age than men do, though I couldn't speak for whether that's intended by developers' design. That said, the "slenderness" she kept bringing up is moot -- Hanzo, Genji, McCree, Soldier, Reaper, Junkrat, and Lucio all basically have the same body type, varying somewhat in the shape of clothes and height, and even including Winston as a male character is silly since he isn't a human...unless we're also supposed to be concerned with toxic gorilla masculinity.
