RE: Politics and The Olympics The Olympics didn't have low ratings in the US.  Well, I suppose this could be seen as racist.  Nonetheless, the government and people are not the same thing?  Is this how Americans are treating this?

Were you self-taught?   Did you use self-help books?   Did you study at school?   What kind of school? Myself, I took some courses in community college and two at a university.   Also, I studied some sort of programming in middle school in the very early 90s.

RE: Free vs Premium Forum Software I still don't know why the default MyBB isn't mobile ready.   It seems like that would be a top priority.  Well, when is the next version coming out?

RE: Do you believe in history repeats itself? The situation in the Ukraine seems to be a repeat of Hitler's taking of Czechoslovakia.    Well, the Czech Republic had regions where Germans lived.  Hitler claimed he was in the right - cause he was helping Germans.   This is like Putin supporting...

RE: Sex Education in School I don't see how kids take sex ed seriously.  It seemed like a joke when I experienced it.  Well, I could be wrong, lol.  Well, what do they do?  They show cheesy videos and talk about stuff that kids giggle and mock. Seriously, this is some stuff only parents should...

RE: Gun Control For centuries, people used swords and probably knives as the main weapons.  In fact, the only weapons similar to guns I suppose were flame throwers and cannons.  Anyway, people can arm themselves with rocks, whatever.   You get to a point where banning stuff is pointless.

RE: Will Vladimir Putin face war charges? Sanctions are a tough thing to work.  Well, in North Korea they are useless.   In the former Apartheid South Africa, they brought down the government within 10 years. In my own opinion, some sanctions on the US might be good, because we need to be...

http://Pentagon and Army: Gen Z bodies are 'Nintendo Generation' and are weak | TweakTown Well, actually any more modern generation is weaker.  I'd say the TV generation was weaker than the radio one and the radio one weaker than the telegraph one.  Nonetheless, how much weaker do you feel...

RE: Is AVAST any good? I have used it for boot scans.  Well, it's the only software I know that has boot scans.   Anyway, I'm sure some other brands do like Norton.

RE: Putin's Family Values http://Why some white evangelicals are cheerleading Russia (msn.com) This story goes along with what I'm saying.  However, as the article is saying, "How can evangelicals justify a blatant invasion?   Any thoughts?

RE: Permanent Twitter Suspension of Donald Trump. For nothing? I don't think they should ban even Putin's page.  Let people speak.  Why are people afraid of people speaking?   They just want to punish dissidents by shutting them up.  Well, this is why Trump wanted to create a new social network...

RE: Radon, a threat no one seems to talk about Me or my family have never bothered to get it checked out.  Nonetheless, I don't see massive incidences of cancer etc. in my home - unless it was self-inflicted.   Anyway, though, people should check for Radon.

RE: Russia's reply to sanctions There's not much talking with Russia.  They want a nation friendly to Russia.  In other words, they don't want NATO in there.   They can only get real assurance by toppling the Ukrainian government.

Old nations like Apartheid South Africa and newer ones like North Korea and now Russia are pretty much "cut off".    Do you think this isolation makes a difference?   Well, in North Korea's case it never caused a regime change, and a South African regime did fall, but it was a tough thing to...

RE: President's Day in the US I don't think it's disrespectful to just dump the holiday.   Instead, they need to honor something more powerful.   Well, maybe they could make a holiday honoring Harriet Tubman, for instance.

Well, Biden's admin is in the dumps.   The economy is horrible, in fact, Trump has a good chance of getting back in power in 2024. However, Putin could not wait until the US elections.    He invaded and all that did what reignite the Cold War and it will be tough, even for Trump, to cozy up to...

RE: What do you all think about the situation in Canada? Extreme supporters of the vaccine, pretty much totally agree with it.  They see the unvaccinated as terrorists.  In that case, of course, they want harsh laws like what Trudeau wants.

It sucks cause when I was a kid in the 80s the Cold War was going on.  There were no chance ordinary people could visit Russia as tourists.  Well, during my teenage years and most of my life - it was possible.  Unfortunately, I never bothered to go.   Nowadays, of course, it's going to be...

Of course, to many this seems as a joke for someone who many claim is as ruthless as a Mafia don - and of course, we can't forget the recent invasion.   Anyway, though, many conservatives in the USA have or had sympathy for Putin - because they thought he stood up for traditional Christian...

Well, Trump was trying to move the USA away from it.  In a sense, I couldn't blame him.   I mean, why have troops in Germany, Japan, South Korea etc. when they are heavily resented, and of course, why aren't these rich nations simply paying something approaching a full bill for defense...
