> Comparing your proposed 30000 guns in France with more guns than inhabitants in the US. My point is, even countries with very strict gun laws have lots of guns, most of which are illegal, but they're still there,…
> Not every lunatic where I live can find a gun when they need one While I agree it is more difficult to find a gun in Europe than in America, that doesn't mean that a lunatic _can't_ get a gun. Guns exist in EU…
Same here. Last time I was at a craps table: pass line, come bet, with odds on both. Made something like $500 in less than an hour ($5 table). Granted, this doesn't happen every time. I do lose money sometimes. But, the…
> I'm italian and I visited united states a couple of months ago. In my opinion the biggest problem is that you don't have decent food at affordable prices. Healthy food has nonsensical high prices and if you want…
I think you're thinking of CodeMAP, not CodeLENS. CodeMap => https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/modeling/use-c...
You're assuming that all honest people want to naturally kill other people when they're mad at them. If that were the case, crime rates would be astronomically high regardless if guns existed or not. If person A gets…
Your reasoning is not accurate. When you allow honest citizens to defend themselves, crime rates drop. "Statistics show that in these states the crime rate fell (or did not rise) after the right-to-carry law became…

It's unfortunate that you are "traumatized" in regards to Plato, or anything, for that matter. Even though you consider yourself "traumatized", Plato still has good ideas, and likely some not so good ideas as well. I…
So, they emailed your password to you? Plaintext? They store passwords in plaintext? Paypal?
I guess that is one way to do it. I don't know if I would do that myself. I went through the normal channels and here in SLC it went very smoothly. The thing with the "do it yourself" approach is, without the sleep…
I have a Nexus 5 I've had for, well, going on a year and half now, and with the exception of the battery (which for me lasts most of the day), it has been an exceptional phone. For only $400ish (bought full retail…
I never said Samsung is more influential than Apple. I also never said Apple isn't influential. I don't know where you got those ideas from. All I said is, according to what I found, Samsung has more revenue than Apple.…
Biggest in what way? Number of employees? Sure. Revenue? Samsung has got them beat [1]. Also, influential is very difficult to prove definitively. I find that word to be very subjective. [1]:…
I definitely would not give up amazon for free education, health care, etc... Those socialists implementations come at a very high cost. Yes, our current system is not well, but it's better than the government taking…

I've often wondered if the NSA is constitutional. Not what they're doing, but the organization itself. The constitution, from my understanding, grants the federal government power to do certain things. Therefore, if the…
I program in both Windows and Linux environments, Visual Studio for the former and Vim for the latter. When I transition from Windows to Linux (and thus VS to Vim), I realize how much more I enjoy Vim. Even with VS's…
