If all candidates are on the same timeline then I agree. That's not the case here. 100 days vs literal years of planning.

Made a 5" aluminum baseball bat in high school shop class learning how to use a lathe. It's been on my keys ever since. Thing is probably older than most folks reading this.

I buy all my supplies from companies making more than 25m, who buy from other companies making more than 25m, and so on. My COGS will go up a minimum of 3%, more than likely closer to 10% when you compound the entire supply chain. I don't care that I won't pay into the general tax fund, but I sure as hell care that I'll have to convince my retail customers to pay 10% more on my products after already struggling with inflation cost increases the last few years.

Two letter TLDs are reserved for countries. No gTLDs use a two letter TLD.

According to the rules set by the org that controls the fate of IO. They can easily change the rules if they wanted. There is a vested interest in not losing IO, and nothing but their own rule to stop them. Who's to tell them they can't do whatever they want in this matter?

Yep. This is such a weird fear monger topic.

If the country that owns IO ceases to exist then IANA will just make it an ICANN generic TLD. Such a widely used TLD won't be allowed to disappear. The rules are all made up anyway.

They explain nothing. They're in the same boat as all others: open source will let them keep MV2 longer than mainstream chrome, but that future is uncertain as the main project codebase starts to evolve around MV3 and backward compatibility to hack MV2 back in gets lost over time. Nobody here can make promises, and sites that make that make those judgments are naive.

So, in other words, SCOTUS took the case to invent something entirely unrelated in order to rollback 40 years of progress. Got it. I'll look forward in dread for the outcome in 9 months.

Published July 1st.

Presidential historian Allan Lichtman took aim at CNN's News Central hosts Monday morning for being "complicit" in Donald Trump's political rise amid the presumptive Republican nominee's bid for a second term.

Lichtman, appearing with hosts John Berman and Sara Sidner, shifted gears during his comments about recent polls between Trump and Democratic incumbent Joe Biden.

He believes Trump's remarks during last week's debate should have grabbed more headlines than Biden's much-discussed struggles.

"I love you guys in the media, but I have to say, you are complicit in Donald Trump lying and conning his way to the presidency. All of the attention has been on Biden's faltering debate, but Donald Trump's debate was vastly worse," Lichtman said. "It was based entirely on lies. More than 30 significant lies.

"He threatened our democracy by saying he wouldn't accept the results of a fair election. That he would seek retribution. Why wasn't that the headlines? Why wasn't that the greatest concern from the debate, rather than all of the focus on Joe Biden."

In his rebuke of the media's coverage of Trump, he continued:

"There's an old saying, it's not just the evil people who wreak havoc on the world, it's the good people who don't do enough to stop them. And the media right now is complicit in Donald Trump gaslighting his way to the presidency and threatening our democracy," Lichtman added.
