  1. And you don't see the issue here? He wasn't convicted of a crime but international companies can just decide to take someone down? Social media companies are not obligated to give people a platform.

  6. Nope. Facebook did not give him his account back. Fake story. Your the fake story. An just to rub it in a little bit because I don't like people like you. Here's the link: https://www.facebook.com/DonaldTrump And notice the last story was posted January 6th His account has been locked since then. It has been sitting there unused. Facebook says account his account is still suspended. And my heart is truly broken that one of trumps sheep doesn't like me.

  8. It's optics IMHO. The "blog" was getting less hits than PetFinder and that's not acceptable in his mind, aka looser. So, instead being a laughingstock of a "blog" with low visits, take it down and redirect to doing something "bigger".

  10. Excited and afraid. I hope they do an Apple and Google. Announce and release what is shown in a beta next day or week. And not a bunch of cool mock-ups and designer vids that get half implemented over the next 2 years with ‘it will will be a long journey blablablabla’. They had years of time.

  11. Norton 360 gains cryptocurrency mining and storage features

    WTF? Yeah, never bother with the paid version of any anti-virus product. You get the same malware protection with the free version without all the bloat/extras no one really needs. TBH One is just better off just sticking with Microsoft's built-in Windows Secuirty (with an ad-blocker).

  13. Microsoft is selling the Surface Duo at up to $708 off

    If Microsoft has to offer that much of a discount in order to clear inventory, I doubt that the Duo line has much of a future. I don't see MSFT selling an expensive Android phone to Corporate America concerned with security, and its too expensive for individual use (the few people willing to spend $1.5K US on a phone will likely buy an Samsung, or wait until Apple revolutionizes the industry by inventing the dual screen phone).

  14. A classic case of TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome) here. because it's obvious the USA was better under him than those godless leftists who destroy everything they touch (hell, we all know they stole the Nov 2020 election and what makes them look more guilty is they trying to interfere with audits as if they had nothing to hide they would not mind at all). with leftists in power you got... open borders, gas prices on the rise, leftist run cities with high crime rates etc. in recent memory the left has more in common with the hammer and sickle than they do freedom/USA. but you just continue in your rage against Trump and remain blind to what's going on around you. Get help. You need it.

    "injected with bleach" you had a good point then pushed a lie: Trump never said to inject anyone with bleach. Yourself or others. https://www.politifact.com/art...p-said-about-disinfectant-/ "The briefing transcript shows that Trump did not say people should inject themselves with bleach or alcohol to treat the coronavirus. He was asking officials on the White House coronavirus task force whether they could be used in potential cures." Next time you try to make a point... don't talk about how "trump got what he deserved" while pushing a blatant lie that he never said. Then again... when has truth ever mattered to Orange Man Bad crowd? "Trump never said to inject anyone with bleach. Yourself or others." You are 100% correct. But as the President Of America, he did suggest in an official capacity that the use of disinfectants could be an option. He has a responsibility to not talk such utter shite when his followers are such brainless individuals that it can be interpreted so poorly.

  16. How many times do we need to go over this. Private companies were never forced to comply to freedom of speech. But Twitter still try to protect your speech unless you make completely egregious violations like trying to build a cause with fake information to rally people. However, this is a very far cry from not being allowed to voice a conservative opinion on Twitter, which is allowed, and can be confirmed by typing in http://www.twitter.com in the web browser.

  17. And you don't see the issue here? He wasn't convicted of a crime but international companies can just decide to take someone down? Nope. Republicans don’t believe in accountability for the impeachable stuff he’s done or inciting violence. He got away with things for too long and should have been removed way earlier. He can't be held accountable for stuff he hasn't done. IE: He's never called for violence. his speeches SPECIFICALLY call for peaceful protests. Meanwhile, those who demand he be held accountable refuse to hold those accountable who have ACTUALLY created violence. IE: Maxine Waters, BLM, AntiFA and various Astute and Austere Religious Scholars. When the left holds Maxine Waters accountable for violance and Biden accountable for accusations by Tara Reade... you can THEN talk... until then? hypocrites.

    Watch, they do what Apple is doing. Instead of addressing the real issues, they make it harder for everyone else to gain access to the data, so that they are the only ones with that information. They are just creating a monopoly on the data being collected.

    its still not worth it at that price. it is outdated at the time it was released and that ugly bezel. maybe sell it for $400. it might be worth it. still for $400 you can find better smartphones than this

When the left holds Maxine Waters accountable for violance and Biden accountable for accusations by Tara Reade... you can THEN talk... until then? hypocrites. Exactly. the left gets away with far worse and nothing happens to them where as those on the right even vaguely hint at anything negative and they get crucified for it. hell, just look at all of the BS they tried to pin on Trump. they (basically those in positions of power, mainly on the left) are just a bunch of corrupt power hungry people who try to destroy anyone who get in their way and the leftist media (which they pretty much control the media in general) is glad to help them do it. basically the left attacks those who are good and the bad guys pretty much get away with murder and nothing happens to them. but like bible says, those types got it coming (i.e. hell) if they fail to repent of their wicked ways... "Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter." - Isaiah 5 : 20 (NOTE: the left basically does this where it promotes immoral/evil things under the guise of 'rights' (or something good) and blasts those who try to defend Christian morality (trying to make them appear to be the villain) with abortion being one of those most obvious areas as, like I have said before, the left sugar-coats this immoral/evil act under the guise of a "choice". anyone who has any semblance of basic right-and-wrong instinctively knows abortion is evil since it's a direct attack on human life at it's most innocent stage (not a "choice" like the godless left tries to claim) and once someone loses respect for life at it's most innocent stage, which is in a mothers womb, what other lines won't they cross as time passes? ; because it's natural to want to protect human life, as people should have a right-to-life, as it's not natural or moral to make it easier for people to kill their own child) but I think another verse from the bible sums up things right now (i.e. the whole battle of good vs evil is playing out in the world right now as the side the world loves (left) is generally the bad guys and the side the world hates (right) is generally the good guys)... "An unjust man is an abomination to the righteous, but one whose way is straight is an abomination to the wicked." - Proverbs 29 : 27 that becomes more and more true the further left the left goes as after a while they begin to hate the truth and those who side with the light, because they are in darkness. basically the left is the party of disorder nowadays as anyone who cannot see this is very blind (I am not saying those on the right are perfect, but it's obvious they are the safer overall choice long term). hell, just look at how hard the left tries to censor views they don't agree with because it's the only way they can possibly stop them since the truth is not in their side as if they had nothing to fear they would not have to censor alternative view points. but like Jesus basically said... those who side with the world, the world basically loves. but those who side with Him (Jesus) tend to be hated by the world and that's especially true in today's world where disorder/immorality is praised and order/Christian morality is frowned upon (plus, a lot of people have a distorted view of Christianity nowadays where they think you can pretty much do whatever you want and as long as you don't kill someone (or the like), your automatically going to Heaven as this type of thinking tends to lead more to siding with whatever immorality is popular in the world at any given time). it's like things changed fairly rapidly from not all that long ago... as what was once frowned upon is now good and what was once bad is now good. it's amazing how far society has fallen in a short period of time. in the end... people either are ultimately for God or against Him. choose wisely p.s. I am not saying the average liberal is THAT bad (or that those on the right got a halo on their head), but their side collectively is getting more and more hostile towards God (i.e. The Holy Trinity (Father/Son(Jesus Christ)/Holy Spirit)) and that's not a good thing long term as the USA (and other civilized societies) has revolved around Christianity for a long time now. but their side is now getting more and more hostile towards what's proven good as it won't end well as you simply cannot remove God, and His moral ways, from society and expect things to improve in the long term because at this point it's like they are trying to make up their own morality instead of sticking to how things are, which God and God alone determines (basically those on the left see morality as subjective where as those on the right who know Christianity half way decently, know morality is objective which is based around the Truth of Jesus Christ). I get no one is perfect, so I am not expecting perfection here, but you can only go so far off the norm before that's going to become a problem, and has, as just look at society right now with all of the chaos in leftist run cities and open borders etc etc which is not going to help raise up the USA, but bring it further down. w h a t t h e

His site, not some nebulous, nefarious, third party. This might just be self-created news. Check out what he posted as news on his website. No blog was really needed due to his style of writing news. Here's a link to his "news" posted May 31, 2021. https://www.donaldjtrump.com/n...tates-of-america-05.31.21-3

  34. Every other former President doesn't need to blog part-time from their make-up and hair studio in Florida. They're still on all Social Media because they never called for and supported the violent overthrow of the American government by cowardly white supremacists and neonazi conspiracy kooks. Those former presidents also congratulated their victorious opponents and retired gracefully when they lost an election or their second term was up, helping in the smooth democratic transition of power, instead of throwing a tantrum like an spoiled rotten little eight-year-old who was finally going to have to face the consequences of his actions because his White House get out of jail free card had been yanked away...thanks to the legitimate, record-setting vote that kicked his crooked, lying, malignant narcissistic ass to the curb. tl;dr - They still have lots of hits and great ratings!

  37. One more PoE question

    Any cable will work, there are not special poe cables. Never heard of that brand of switch before, but doesn't seem to have any sort of gui or smart/managed features. So yeah prob have to pull the wire at the switch to reset the camera. Very reasonable price for sure.. And your camera only lists 10/100 interface, so no need spending extra for a gig poe switch for your cameras. Camera specs show less than 10w, so looks like that switch could do 4 cameras.. Let us know how it turns out after you get everything up and running. edit: Only concern, maybe? Not sure on the bandwidth requirements for your video feeds.. But all the camera's on that switch are going to have to share the 100mbps to the rest of your network, where NVR sits? Which I would assume would have gig connection. As long as the total combined bandwidth required for your video doesn't exceed the 100mbps this switch is going to limit you too should be fine. ah, just looked and bandwidth is pretty low Bitrate Main Stream: 1024Kbps ~ 8192Kbps, Sub Stream: 64Kbps ~ 512Kbps So that 100mbps shouldn't be an issue..

  38. ugh...the shuffle....bundled with crap you don't want/need (like exploding PSUs) Some might have better luck going to their local Best Buy for the 3080ti FE this morning. They will have some stock, will be handing out "tickets" at 0730 local time which guarantee a 3080ti (# of tickets = stock) at MSRP. This isn't at all Best Buy stores though ... mine isn't listed, because of course it isn't. List of stores: https://corporate.bestbuy.com/...ders-edition-graphics-card/

  39. I guess most of the posters here are under 50 so I'll say this one thing. If you want a world where people are afraid to risk offending anyone, where free speech is frowned upon, where boundaries can't be tested - go for it, you are doing a good job. History tells us you won't like the outcome.

  40. Microsoft announces June 24 event to show "what's next for Windows"

    Let's make some (probably pretty accurate predictions): 1. It will not be "major" or "exciting". It will be a super minor update. 2. It will be mostly about developers 3. End users will get a few new icons...and that's it 4. It will be even more simplified (stupified) so power users will hate it even more 5. It will offer even more "features" selling adds that no one asked for (like the weather /news bar) 6. It will be a "multi year" journey... 7. ...that has most of the new stuff only at "limited markets"... 8. ...before those are killed and we're shown a new "super exciting" CGI video... 9. about "what's next for Windows!" 10. jump back to the beginning And in the end we'll have an OS that looks like Windows 2.0, with an Explorer that still has it roots on Windows 95, but just with most of the actually useful features removed because of "touch interface" (that 99% of WIndows users never use" but has added "cloud stuff" (that 99% of Windows users never use). So basically nothing changes, just more simplified (for kids and granny) because business hate change. But every speaker will be "super excited!" And those CGI videos sure will look fine. Unfortunately nothing like that ever will be released.

Social media companies are not obligated to give people a platform. There are a great number of people still with access to Facebook and Twitter who are worst than that particular former President of the United States. We are talking about individuals who have said, in no certain terms, that specific races are better than other races.

    I actually went to the website when it was all there for a bit of fun. I can say, in my opinion, he's nuts but for the joke brigade, it should have been left up as it really makes you realize just how bad for America and the rest of the world he was.

  44. WSJ has said that he is in talks with other platforms about licencing fees if he decides to join them. Which sounds exactly like the kind of thing Trump would do. Why host a personal blog with less traffic when he could go to a different platform reaching a larger audience, and make a quick buck out of it at the same time?
