I loath Trump but he isn't the only president to get special privileges, he just sucks at covering it up or he doesn't care.

We should only be banning things that promote intolerance because there will never be an end to the bannings, there will always be some witch to hunt somewhere.

To answer your question, yes it is the saying the same thing, that is why banning books is so stupid. A book, movie, TV show, meme, or news report isn't necessarily going to change my mind but it might make me think about something from a perspective I didn't consider before.

That's a really fair point. Part of the draw of the Mad Max films is the insane action and chase sequences. It just hits different with live action. It would be tough to pull off that same level of awe inducing spectacle in an animated film.

I read that Furiosa flopped so that might have something to do with it. Also everyone involved is ten years older now than they were when Fury Road was made so there is that to consider as well. I say give us a few animated Mad Max movies and revisit the live action stuff in 20 years. I'd be happy with that.

It very well could be the mac that I have. It's a work laptop so it's not the top of the line mac book pro, so some more advanced display features may be missing. I haven't tried the dual displayport connection only HDMI. Might be worth checking out. Thanks for the tip!

I use Mac's at work and whenever I have to use 3rd party accessories (keyboard, mouse, headset, USB switch, etc) that are not apple products they tend to have some issues. I use the same accessories on my personal PC and have never had any issues that unplugging and plugging back in didn't fix. Also I hate that I need to use two USB C to HDMI connectors to have two displays connected to my laptop.

Nah it's way easier to point the finger at minority groups and claim they are the cause of all our troubles. It's been working great for years, why would the ruling class stop now?

This is adorable! My kids would love that. Thanks for the idea!

Unfortunately getting pneumonia and it going septic is not an uncommon occurrence. Once you are septic if you don't get the right antibiotics in you quickly you'll go into septic shock which has a 40% mortality rate.

Basically yeah, and like the Shrek movies the Deadpool movies are some of the better films in the genre it is parodying.

If I truly felt a company, or someone at the company, cared for me and my career I'd have no problem putting in the extra effort. Unfortunately it is a rare occurrence and most of the time decisions are revenue/cash flow related and it doesn't matter how much a company cares. At the end of the day, no matter how good things are where you work, it'll always come down to the bottom line and what value you provide vs what you are costing the company.
