JFC I can't imagine what the courts will allow after 4 years of TRUMP appointing judges.

I hope it's obvious but because of the deplorable nature of the above comments I want to be clear this is sarcasm
My understanding Medicaid and a Medicare payed for opiate prescriptions have increased over the past several years by a lot. West Virginia is one of the poorest states so lots of people get Medicaid.

Pain Clinics + Medicaid Expansion = Gold Rush

bobman,

For some reason Wookie moved my poast, presumably because he's bored and drinking too many hoppy beers. I am wondering if you could link me to the primo #content on the subject of charity-run UBI trials SVP.
03-11-2017 , 02:09 PM
I somehow don't think this particular UBI model will work for the US.

What happened to this forum over the past few years? Used to be dominated by libertarians now it's delusional anti-Trumpers?

If you look closely at BBC vid, wife's pants aren't buttoned and are falling down. She let her guard down to use the restroom.

Someone needs to make a gif of the map falling off the wall when she closes the door.

Can anyone explain what's going on with Turkey and the Netherlands?
03-11-2017 , 10:39 PM
My impression is that there's an upcoming constitutional referendum for Turkey and I guess the Turkish nationals living in The Netherlands can vote in it, but the Dutch don't want the Erdogan or his Erdoganians campaigning in Holland. So, they prevented some Erdoganite from landing a plane or something and now Turkey seems to have put Dutch diplomats under house arrest essentially and is calling them all Nazis. (which is illegal in The Netherlands - or at least it used to be)

Re: CIA leaks, Snowden has a few tweets on this subject:



Basically, through the CIA hoarding these exploits and using them to spy, they remain unfixed and there's a decent chance that other hackers (who are not the US government) can also find and exploit these holes.
03-12-2017 , 02:20 AM
There's so much code and so many eyes looking at it, I think it's a certainty that vulnerabilities the CIA has been hording are actively used by other malicious people or organizations, and the internet, and our computers, phones, and even TVs and cars would definitely be safer if the CIA and NSA practiced responsible disclosure, the way ethical hackers do, so vulnerabilities in all the various products we all use can be fixed.

This. + there are national elections in the Netherlands on Wednesday, so the government wants to appear strong and not be attacked by this Trump impersonator: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geert_Wilders
