  • WTF? The Senate isn’t part of Congress? THIS is what you didn’t understand during this whole conversation?

    Edit: Actually you don’t even understand the text you copied. I should not respond at all to let your brilliance shine here. But whatever, this is too easy to not respond to.

    Let’s set this straight. The House of Representatives and the Senate are each their half of Congress, it’s a bicameral legislature.

    You should sit down now. Take this as a lesson. At least have your general knowledge ducks in a row. Allow the people who are contributing to the conversation to do so.


  • I’m responding here because it was annoying to read this stuff. I really dislike people being pedantic for no reason, sorry, especially when they’re not correct in their pedantry and it does not contribute to the conversation.

    The branches of government don’t include “senate” and “house”. They are one branch together.

    The penalty for impeachment has one relief: removal from office. That is the only outcome of a presidential impeachment. This is absolutely within the power of Congress.

    Midnitte was emotionally / morally correct in their initial post. Yes, we know “Impeachment” has occurred, but for it to be meaningful to any US citizen, the president needs to be removed from power, as well, not aquitted in the Senate.





  • Encarta seems so quaint to me now, but it really was a well curated encyclopedia that had a designed charm to it.

    I admit when I saw this headline I thought “but what about music” and for me, CD’s lived long after the 90’s due to small music players and cars having audio CD players but not yet being able to read MP3’s. Decks with that feature and cars with that feature were not much later… but we still burnt them to CDRs.



  • For finger to work remotely, you have to have set up a .plan file as well as applied correct permissions to it at the time in your home directory.

    I have a .plan file, I get that response from finger when I’m on SDF but it doesn’t work when I do the lookup remotely. I don’t recall the needed permissions.
