What are they going to do, send him to jail?

No matter how you feel about it, he was a fool to make a public post about it.

Ah yes, the best way to make your voice heard is to become silent.

If Nintendo went belly up today, Microsoft would buy them.

That'd be kind of sad.

I can't wait to use Microsoft Google Chrome, oh wait...

I'd appreciate that.

The Starfox Adventures trailer was eerie and seemed unfinished.

The Metroid Prime trailer didn't really have much to it, but I guess that's normal for the series now. Haha.

That's super lame, considering the award is titled "Game of the Year" and a DLC clearly isn't a game.

There's a country in Europe called Ireland.

I don't know much about the politics and policies there, but what I do know is that if I drop the street view guy there, most places are green and pretty. That puts it pretty high up on my list.

The way I see it, why leave?

Am I just going to let the place fall to ruin because I didn't get my way this time? There are people here who want to make things better, just like I do, and they will need my help next time. It'd be selfish for me to leave them and make things better for just myself when we're supposed to be trying to make things better for everyone.

If things get truly bad, I have to hope that more people will want to make things better. That doesn't work if everyone just runs away at the first sign of things going wrong. If you're of a group where you might be persecuted, and you find yourself in danger, then go, run, but I'm reasonably safe for now, so I will stay and hope for a better tomorrow.

Your fear of a 3rd term makes it all the more important to vote in your future elections. As the two term limit is imposed through a constitutional amendment, they'd need to create another constitutional amendment to reverse it. They need 2/3rds of both the house and the senate to agree to even get the ball rolling, as such, it is vital that you do what you can to prevent them from acquiring those numbers to avoid that situation.

If it did happen, I wonder if the democrats would run Obama again.

Wait 2 years, and hopefully put people who will mitigate the damage into the positions listed on your ballot. All you can do now as a law abiding citizen is wait.

 

So, long story short, I have vision problems, and I need to work closely with my monitor. So I'd like to have a solution where I can grab my monitor and pull it close to my face for use, and push it back over the desk when I am done with it. I don't really know what what I'm looking for is called, or if anything like this even exists. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable in the subject than I am can help me out here.

While I am at it, I am hoping to replace my monitor as well. I would like it if the monitor had a harder material on the screen, rather than the fragile feeling plasticy stuff that computer monitors are normally made of, since my nose frequently bumps the screen, resulting in me needing to clean it often.

Once I remove my current monitor, I will have two displayport ports and one HDMI open on my card.

I am hoping to find a solution that costs less than three-thousand dollars. But with niche hardware like this, I understand that it may be more expensive.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Thanks for reading my post and considering helping me out!
