  1. The courts haven't even decided which lawsuit in the ACC imbroglio even takes precedence. That stuff could go on for years. So no ACC raid and no AAC raid, so that eliminates the AAC scenario at the very least.
  2. Which is not an issue for any phone with a data plan, ie, everybody.
  3. An actual ban is pretty much impossible. But this makes for good political theatre. 1) It bans Tik Tok from the app stores. Good luck with all those phones that already have it. 2) VPN services can get around the US location issue. 3) Any company big enough to buy Tik Tok will probably get a nice anti-trust investigation.
  4. So anyways.... RFK Jr really has a sharp political mind. It'll serve him well during the campaign. In an interview with CNN, Kennedy said he’s “made up his mind” on his running mate, selected from a shortlist that includes NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers and former Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura, whom he said he’s met with recently to discuss the possibility of joining his campaign. Other names on the shortlist include includes former Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, Republican Sen. Rand Paul and former Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang, a campaign spokesperson said. Kennedy told CNN he also spoke with former television host Mike Rowe, motivational speaker Tony Robbins and Tricia Lindsay, a civil rights attorney.
  5. Companies have been buying and selling customer data for decades. One of my tasks for 5 years back in the 90s was putting together files of Hyatt Gold Passport member data that they had sold to all manner of different companies.
  6. No, that's not why Texas is staying red. The Dems are nonexistent in East and rural Texas, and much of the urban suburbs. But the election results for the statewide offices have shrunk in the past decade. And in the last decade Republican votes in the Texas Senate races have gone from 62% to 53%. The drop in Texas House races has been similar. Hispanics have never been a voting block. Cubans in Florida are different from Mexicans in Texas, which are different from Puerto Ricans in NYC and Chicago.
  7. I know what the Kochs are worth. They're just not giving much of it to WSU.
  8. They do, sorta. One brother is dead, and the other gave 6 million towards their arena redevelopment, plus a couple million more. Ain't exactly Phil Knight.
  9. Those houses had external elevations you wouldn't like. My father grew up in such a neighborhood, and I was born in one. The lots are narrow because they were squeezing max homes into minimum space. In many, you could shake hands with your neighbor thru the window.
  10. So many jokes, so little time....
  11. NW is headed to the tournament for the 2nd straight year. Led by another Chicago native, Chris Collins. They've been 3rd and 4th in the conference the last 2 years.
  12. That's going to happen no matter who gets elected.
  13. I get about 2 cold calls a week from those types wanting to buy house or condo. Conversation usually ends after the words 'market offer'.
  14. Yeah...that's not the 3-30-10 rule. The house price should not exceed three times your annual income. Your mortgage payments should not exceed 30% of your gross monthly income. Ensure you have a substantial down payment, ideally 10% or more, to reduce the loan amount and potential interest costs.
  15. YES!!! I finally got a warning!!! And it's for a year!!!
  16. Here's a leftist FG for you.
  17. Meanwhile, my 19 yo, 2200 sf house (sound of Akkula gasping) would probably go for about 375. Location, location, location....
  18. Is it worth mentioning that nobody can actually SEE someone else's warnings, so any 'punishment' is self-inflicted? Which makes ph90702 a masochist.
  19. My wealth transfer must have gotten lost in the mail...
  20. Your ignorance of those who post here is quite breathtaking. Liberals think me a conservative, conservatives a liberal. And I'm not a boomer either. But I did take out a loan to pay for my house, just like 99% of Americans. And, I will have paid off that loan 8 years early in short order. God bless America... But you do like to act the victim. So you got one thing right, I suppose.
  21. Cry me a river. If someone likes their house, and doesn't want to move, why should they?
