War Room Lounge v190: Resolution Impossible

[BEER]

I mean I feel like maybe Melania would not be the one washing his feet.....she may be the one stabbing him in the side............this is based purely on the the constant rumours of her leaving as soon as he is out of office, renegotiating her prenup, and the fact that she seems to hate him when he tries to hold her hand, the alleged body double for appearances, etc.

So much wrong with it.

Melania is only 4 feet tall. Pelosi is only two feet tall.

Trump as a christ-like figure? Where's his dick? Is it a back-tuck?

Why do people like to portray Trump as some fit dude?

I know I'm late to the student loan forgiveness debate but I'll throw in my two cents anyway.

From my perspective I've always thought that forgiving interest accrued on student loans rather than the entirety of loans themselves might be a better compromise. A lot of people are against student loan forgiveness because it goes against their sense of fairness so under this plan at least students are made to pay back every cent they borrowed while still getting relief. Plus it'd be a lot cheaper. That said I doubt the GOP would agree to even that with how obstructionist they've been.

That’s the one with John Cusack?

I believe so, yes. I don't think there are any bad Grisham-based movies although I have surely not seen them all. He's to lawyers what Phillip K. Dick is to SF from what I have seen.

If my eyes could puke, I'd capture the effluent, find you and mail it to you.

any Linuxers here

just installed Arcolinux latest release ( arcolinux-v20.11.9-x86_64 ) and when I use 'ping' command it takes 5 secs exactly to return each result. This is when I use domain name. When I use IP the 'ping' works fine. So I guess this is related to DNS issue. I am not that well versed in in depth networking and have never encountered a ping taking as long as 5 secs per result return.

I realize I am not providing enough details but does anyone maybe have a guess or can point to me some possible explanations?

I'm no expert or even all that versed in Linux, honestly, but I've done bucketloads of troubleshooting of all kinds and I have one minor suggestion to get you started maybe. If it's returning the exact same result every time it suggests it's not querying the domain at all but rather getting shunted off somewhere to time out. In other words, your ping query may not be getting any further than your router and your result is just a timeout.

Take it FWIW, just a thought. Hopefully someone else can take a firmer hand in assisting you with this.

Because he tells the, he’s in tip top shape? They believe everything else he says

By the way, I already replied to this, but I feel like I should mention the books are better than the movies in all of these cases, I think, so if you haven't already I recommend them as well, especially Runaway Jury.

Ahhh that makes a lot of sense! And it is the same exact amount of time each. Exactly 5 seconds. Thanks!

Anyway that latest release was a buggy mess in other ways besides. Random freezes, updates stopping for no reason, reversions to former states. I ended up removing them (I installed two in virtualbox of same iso to troubleshoot). Both same exact issues. The latest release was simply not ready. Somebody on the arco team needs an ass chewin. I will probably install a former stable release later today see how it goes. Acrolinux has a really nice install process.

I mean I have other distros installed, just hopping around on new ones.

His lack of Taste and smell isn’t coming from your standard cold congestion. Like the posts eluded to.

Man, there's something eluding you, alright. She didn't allude to fuck all. She asked a question then supplied her follow-up in the event the question was answered in the affirmative. I should probably let it go but Captain Pedantic won't let me. You done fucked up and you owe Sara an apology.

The Banking and college industries won’t accept that. Lobbyists are louder than the voices of the people in a broken democracy.

Yep, that’s usually the case with books!

I tried out Linux a bit here and there many years ago and it was interesting in lots of ways but networking was always such a whore of a problem no matter the distro, it was too just tiresome to be bothered anymore.

Also I honestly didn’t know Trump was as out of shape as he is (I never thought he was fit) until I say him golfing, his dark suits hide The severity of his weight issues

Question

A hypothetical. If for some reason Joe Biden stepped down or died or was removed for whatever reason BEFORE the EC vote would that automatically mean Kamala would become the projected POTUS. Or does the rule only kick in after the official EC vote? Is it possible that the Democratic party (or whoever) could find someone to replace Joe other than Kamala?

would they have to do the entire election again? Just because people opted Joe as president doesn’t mean they’d vote Kamala or another candidate.

god damn it this is never gonna end.

What about people who have credit card debt from school?

That's a scary fucking scenario man. The electors can cast their votes against the wishes of the people of their state in come cases, and in some cases they can't. Up to now I haven't been able to find out if enough electors can betray their country to make Trump the winner or not, but if so, I feel pretty certain they would rather than cast their votes for Harris in most cases.

Could they prove the debt was for school necessitiies and not just I’m in school, everything is covered but I still want to have fun so I’m charging up try credit cards?
