    Don't know if you guy are watching the latest 'True Detective ', but last night's episode had a n exceptionally acted last scene. I mean, impressive.
    M. Ali gets all the praise, as well he should, but Stephen Dorff is just as brilliant.
    Just great acting.

    this was my favorite part of the super bowl
    he's not brilliant like Dali or as strange as Kaufmann but certainly has to be in there somewhere
    this is an extended version of that commercial and any purveyor of this kind of curiousity needs to watch to the end
    he goes from uncomfortable to disinterested to ultimately revolted at eating a fucking hamburger!

    Yes, indeed he's in there, somewhere...like him or not, Andy was a foundation in illustrating of the zeitgeist of the times. Had major effects on music, film, art sexuality and on and on...guys like Bowie and Prince amongst his devotees.
    Arguably, the most famous person of Slovakian ancestry ever...then came Melania.

    The film has elements and similarities of other films, I'm sure you'll recognize on watching it.
    But the unique characterization of the leads makes it new and fresh.

    Microsoft is begging you to stop using Internet Explorer
    The company is encouraging businesses to move to a modern browser
    by AJ Dellinger | EnGadget — 3 hours ago

    Old habits die hard, but they do eventually have to die. Microsoft knows there are still plenty of businesses and organizations out there using Internet Explorer because the outdated browser supports legacy web apps, but the company is asking people to finally let go of their old ways and to embrace a modern browser.

    In a blog post, Microsoft senior cybersecurity architect Chris Jackson said continuing to use Internet Explorer is racking up companies a ton of "technical debt." Essentially, by continuing to use IE, organizations are creating additional costs down the line by selecting the easiest, most convenient solution now rather than the approach that is best for the long term. Jackson laid out a scenario in which a company, choosing the easiest possible route since Internet Explorer 6, goes to make a webpage today and ends up using a 1999 implementation of web standards by default.

    Microsoft has tried to limit the technical debt accrued when using IE, including creating an Enterprise Mode for the browser back in 2014. Enterprise Mode lets websites render as they would in previous verisons of IE to avoid compatibility issues with old web apps. However, the best way to make sure you're not falling behind is by switching to a modern browser. Microsoft killed support for IE 8, 9 and 10 in 2016. Most developers don't test for compatibility with IE because most people don't use it. It might be convenient to run old apps in IE, but it's safer, smarter and better long term to move to a modern browser.

    • Just weeks after the partial government shutdown, Hillary Clinton had nothing but praise for the woman who helped to end it: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.). In a message to this year’s MAKERS Conference, a gathering held to advance the women’s movement, the former secretary of state and 2016 Democratic presidential nominee said that Pelosi was proof "it often takes a woman to get the job done."
    really?
    lewinski proved you couldn't get a job done... or at least not well

    Normally, he knows he's above anyone asking him questions but he's a lot different while having a conversation with his equal.
