Legal or illegal what difference does it make? Guns can be had by anyone who desires one. That was the point. The liberal leftist idiots in the states are trying to ban the AR15 which is semi-auto and there are many other semi-auto weapons which can cause the same damage. Will they then want to abolish all semi autos? That's where it will lead.
The point was the ease of legal access to semi-automatics. I'm not even going to touch on the simplicity of converting them to full auto.
All methods would require 'some' planning and if you have read indepth about most all the shootings which have occurred, much planning was conceived before the assaults.
Without easy, legal access to the semi-automatics, the body count would have likely been lower.
You can be in complete disagreement, that's your prerogative, but if you follow the mainstream media you are being duped, as are many others. The poll you posted is just one example. CNN and MSNBC have both shown huge drops in viewership as of late, not to mention a couple other 'mainstream'. That is fact.
The irony is the source is Fox News.
Deflection? How so? It can happen anywhere including the states or even here. The point was it can be done 'anywhere' and would not be difficult.

Hospital living sucks.
If it wasn’t for all the happy drugs (and the cutie nurses touching my junk) - I’d be really pissed off
Just an update - been in the hospital for about a month now fighting off an infection.
All is good now - should be discharged once I learn how to walk again - but it’s been a rough set of weeks
I’ve never been so high in my life

Editorial by Kathleen Wynne
The votes have been counted, and you don’t want me in office anymore. I get it. And you know what? Good. You want Doug Ford in office? Well, good luck with that, *******s!
I’m sick and tired of dealing with your bad ****ing attitude. All your whining and your judgement and your opinions about my haircut. You have no idea how much work I did for you. I gave you a $15 minimum wage. I gave you job growth. I gave you a competent sexual education curriculum in the hopes that the next generation will be able to competently operate their genitals. You’d think that would be enough for you Ontario, but nooooo.
It was never enough for you. I just tried to make things better, but I see now that that was my mistake. You don’t want things to be better. You want the moral high ground. You would rather live in a garbage fire of a province over your one dollar beers. I ****ing get it. I hope you’re ****ing happy now. Admit it. You don’t actually want Doug Ford. You just want to teach me a lesson for trying too hard, and for making changes, and for being a woman. No matter what Doug Ford does wrong, he’ll still manage to convince you it was my fault, and they’re just cleaning up my mess. And you’ll believe him. Why? Because you’re the mess, Ontario. You’re the ****ing mess.
But you know what? Who cares? Not me. From now on, Kathleen Wynne is the premier of nobody but Kathleen Wynne.
I’m free. I can finally, stop wearing these goddamn pantsuits. I’m going to dust off my leather jacket. I can finally be a raging queer without worrying what Ted the conservative in Sudbury thinks. Screw you, Ted. It was never about hydro prices, was it? You just hate the idea that I have sex with women. Well I do, Ted. Lots of it. And I’m goddamn good at it too.
Good Luck, Doug Ford. You won. You may think it will be different for you. I’m sure it will be, for a little while. Enjoy it while you can. Eventually they’ll forget about hating me, and then you’ll be eaten alive. They will bully you to within an inch of your sanity, and you’ll still have to get up and do a press conference with a smile on your face. Enjoy it, sucker. I’m done smiling.
If you need me, I’m going to go sit in my backyard, crack open a good bottle of shiraz and scream along to “Jagged Little Pill”.
For those that voted for me: thank you for your support. For those that didn’t, good ****ing luck.

I've always been a Lenovo fan...but probably not in your price range. Really just about any new laptop will work these days, they're all pretty good...stick with name brand though so like Lenovo, Dell, HP, Acer, etc.Forget the CPU specs, it doesn't matter. Biggest bang for the buck is amount of RAM (8GB is almost not enough for modern Windows) and SSD vs spinning disk (5400, 7200 RPM).
For the display (screen) TN isn't going to look as good (grainy look, poor viewing angle) but will be much cheaper than IPS screens.
Ideally you can upgrade components later too. If you don't want to worry about data transfer later (or Windows reinstall etc) get the SSD now. Size doesn't really matter since you can keep a lot of stuff in Google Drive etc.
RAM is much easier to upgrade but can be pricey especially if you wait too long and you need to buy new, old stock. RAM is generally just expensive right now anyways.
Flash/SSD memory looks to be bound for a price correction in the next 12 mths or so, which means upgrading from spinning disk to SSD would be relatively inexpensive.
In your price range if you can find 8GB memory + SSD and have to compromise on the screen and CPU you're doing well, imho.
Or look for a used laptop with an Intel Core i3 or i5 and upgrade the RAM or disk to suite.
shift8
08-18-2018, 05:01 PM
Also depending on what you need it for look into a Chromebook which will be much cheaper but won't have Windows, Office, etc available.
I work at Red Hat now and even prior to that just use the Google Suite stuff for word documents etc. Works great for me. I haven't had a Windows computer in nearly a decade.

It happens periodically on any of them unfortunately. The SSD is less likely to fail from drops, bumps etc because they are solid state vs mechanical spinning plates.
This one also has a touch screen which you're paying a bit for. Depends if you need that or not.
I had an HP for a while and it never failed on me. I was also being pretty careful with it because it was my laptop for consulting and was never leaving the house with it. Not sure if that made the difference or not.

My experience with HP was good, never had any issues with it. I replaced it with a Toshiba Satellite series and it was a total POS in comparison.
personal experience with HP hasn't been that great. work laptop was sluggish (but thick like a text book). if anyone remembers netbooks, i had me one of those too and it crapped out after a year (although i'm sure netbooks weren't exactly built to last)

I've had nothing but poor experiences with HP's (anyone here old enough to remember their Radeon-gate years?), but that's probably the same opinion someone else has about a brand I trust - Just the nature of mass produced products. I echo the sentiment that Lenovo's are great, the T/X-series are very reliable. I can't say that I've had much exposure to their consumer-grade Y-series stuff.
Use the code FNDEPP to get in:
Lenovo EPP page (http://lenovo.evyy.net/c/341376/225728/3899?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww3.lenovo.com%2Fca%2Fen%2Fi bmeppfriendca%2Fgatekeeper%2Fshowpage%3Ftoggle%3DP asscodeGatekeeper)
I got my X1 Carbon through that site just after Christmas, came out even cheaper than through my wholesale sources.

our office, like a lot of corps, have transitioned to Lenovo and I must say they've been pretty resilient. Going on 2 years with my laptop and even with an upgrade to Windows 10, it still runs smooth (battery life could be better but that's a standard complaint).
I'd definitely consider a consumer grade device.

I’m on a FB page for the lakes that I fish on... most members are cottage owners that post rental info, etc...
But I noticed the past couple days - these owners are literally cursing the renters and their use of fireworks.
I mean ... last weekend of summer - probably the last clear night of the weekend.
Why the hate?

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkNot a ton here because the engine was rebuilt last summer and I'd previously done the suspension, rotors, and pads. Brake pads were upgraded during engine build.
Otherwise I'm probably going to order some camber plates since I can't find any used ones. I'll install those over the winter. Otherwise I've only gotta adjust the shifter cable offset a little bit, and get my USB cables run and setup for data acquisition and gauges. Have the stock AP3 mount I need to get put in somewhere too.
Been doing a lot of sim racing and race craft reading though :) Can't wait till spring for some lapping at TMP. I'm doing my best to NOT do a lot of changes to the car heh.

WTF?!

Damn dude. I guess someone who can't wait might buy those.
I bought my tickets the day they went on sale and the Cineplex website crashed. I drove to the VIP don Mills and just bought them there. The whole weekend was nearly sold out already and I got the last 3 seats in a row.

What bike will you get?
Honda Grom 125? coolest bike around
I have been looking a bunch of Suzuki DR 650s ect.
My insurance would cost more than the bike.....

My friend's first bike was a Grom 125, now he has a Ninja 400. I've been looking around for a Ninja 300, I think anything smaller would be a bit too gimpy.

Id strongly recommend getting quotes on insuring sportbikes as a new rider as a part of the bike selection. may be a lot $$$$

Looks like I’m heading in for another surgery in a couple weeks, to release the tension from the skin graft.
Hopefully recovery time doesn’t take up my whole summer...again.

Bike's coming along. Wrapped it myself, installed a new battery and RAM phone mount, then got rid of the stock red rim tape and replaced it with a reflective blue strip.
Need to find the time to install the new rearsets and I've got an iridium windscreen, silver levers, and rear turn signals coming in.

This popped up on my feed today. Kind of Interesting and definitely no surprises here when I was looking at a new cars last year. IMO the civic was just better value for the price and dare I say the manual drove a lot better.

I haven't driven most of the other cars in the class, so I can't really compare. However, I do think the increase in the entry level price point really hurt. So did the shift to CUV/SUV's .

And also because with Gen3 and up, the 3 has become a snoozefest. They've tried too hard to make the cheap interior look premium to attract luxury buyers who no doubt don't even have Mazda on their radar.
They forgot the success of their mainstream models was because of young professionals with a passion for driving. I drove Gen3 and Gen4 MZ3s and nearly passed out from how sterile and lifeless it felt.
It's not all on Mazda though, most brands are churning out ugly SUV after ugly SUV and the tasteless masses keep lapping it up, prompting other brands to do the same and ignore the sedan and hatch segment until you're left with unreliable VWs and overdesigned plastic Toyotas/Hondas.

I think they might even do what Ford or Mitsubishi did and drop some car platforms if their cars continue to underperform like this.
They rolled the [up brand] dice but I don't think its paying off.

I'm jealous of how well your 3 has done, as well as being a 2.3L.
I definitely miss my little go cart. With grippy tires and how the suspension was set up, I would never break traction in the corners. I miss taking on/off ramps at stupid speeds.
The Honda so far has a much nice motor, shifter & clutch than the Mazda had, but it steps out sometimes when cornering.
