  1. Palestinians being used by Hamas, I don't even think the Arabs care about them at all. Generation after generation will be taught to hate the Jews and continue to live the same shit life.
  2. ???? US (or Russia) has done nothing, this is just Israel telling Iran to go back to their side of the sandbox. Sit back and enjoy the fireworks.
  3. My money is on Israel. Love how Iran is crying on one side because they can't endure any hardships that might be imposed by the west and on the other side their gearing up for a big time confrontation. Maybe Russia will get to test some of their weapons.
  4. She seems like an opinionated type that some poor guy would take home, bang the shit out of, and then have to listen to her for the next couple hours ramble on about useless crap. Three past husbands..........
  5. Can't find anything if you don't stop looking and prodding during the entire 8 years he's in office.
  6. Will there be a unified North/South Korea? It happened in Germany (under Regan). World trade agreements down the road?...... at least we have someone running the show that will make them fair for the US. Next couple years will bring big changes to this area.
  7. Had my cholesterol checked, some big fattie nurse looked at the results and told me to stay away form places like this........ thanks for convincing me.
  8. No doubt automation will take away some jobs but more jobs are created by it as well. Robots don't run themselves, workers are needed to keep them "functioning" to keep the line running. When a line goes down you need someone on hand that has an understanding of what needs to be done to get things running again. I once worked for a wire house and was always running around keeping automated equipment running. The operators and the guys in the white shirts with ties had no clue...... just wanted it fixed now. You posted the "brick laying robot" but in the video it mentions that employees are still needed to run it, the advantage was it sped up the process. Not really a loss of jobs, more an increase in productivity. In many instances your not killing jobs your just changing job rolls.
  9. I worked for a company that made "machines for electronics". They were known for a semiautomatic through hole machine that was used to populate small batches of circuit boards and was the benchmark of the industry. From there they followed the industry into surface mount and were successful for a while. This was a small American company, competing with names like Universal Equipment, Juki, Samsung... The big guys went to China and setup factories with cafeterias and dorms for its cheap labor source They built lots of machines, many of which stayed there to be used to build boards for cell phones and other large quantity electronic products. We had a plan to sell a machine for small companies in the US and Europe that were looking to do small board batches with quick changeovers. One machine that could do all components. Again they were successful for a couple years. The industry got saturated and pretty soon the big players came down to our level and killed us on price with their cheap labor. They were almost selling machines at cost, we couldn't compete. It wasn't automation that ended this company.

  11. Something tells me it's still going to drag on........ The world must think we're a bunch of dumb fucks. Canada is even laughing.
  12. Do I think he lied....... probably. I don't see anything becoming of this other than distraction leading up to future elections and possibly marriage counseling.
  13. $poorsledder$ replied to SSFB's topic in Current Events
    I used to get a free donut with the purchase of a drink at DD with that card. Gained a couple pounds.
  14. I found him to be extremely passionate about his beliefs, came across as honest. What was his thought on lug height affecting sled speed? That'll be the yes or no vote for me.
  15. Did he do this while in office?
  16. Trump banging a porn star hasn't affected me one bit. I think the opposition spending all this money on investigations and taking the focus of what needs to be done is affecting me however. I'm an independent (like Mainecat) so this will be considered when I go vote.
  17. I wonder if this was a "hold my beer for a minute" moment. I was at a gas station and the attendant told me there was a bear going through the dumpster way in back of the building. I walked over with some other guy getting gas to have a look. Told the other guy "If he jumps out of the dumpster and starts coming this way I'm gonna knock you down and run so he gets to you first!".
  18. Anyone check on him lately? Is he being investigated yet?
  19. Putin owns Syria, US should just concede and pull out. If they kill off a third of the population let it be, it was going to happen anyway. Israel will do the dirty work against Iran.
  20. I'll check with my kid and see what all the high school kids are being told to do this time.
  21. I guess a black man needs to check in when he wants to say what he thinks. Better keep him away from the kids, we don't want to give them a different view.
  22. Made me like him a little more. Fuck the media circle.
  23. If it was directed at Trump I would have said ok. If it was a bunk of fucktards on a sled website I would expect it, not at this type of event.
  24. He should have started a thread on this site. From track lug height to furnace repair this place covers everything.
