Semantics but I suppose its fair criticism of my poor wording. The direct source of AIPAC funds comes from American Donors, and how or when those organizations or inidividuals got the funds isn't publicly disclosed.

But it is a lot of fucking money for sure.

Yes, basic 720p is free but if you have an old 1080p camera then you gotta pay up or deal with lower res or unclean hdmi out.

There are no open source drivers for Canons.

Lately I've been browsing MPB used camera market for an upgrade to my decade old Canon clunker because they want to charge a monthly fee to use it with my PC.

Its nice to see progress made for Open Source cameras but I don't see it being competittive with used cameras price-wise.

The DNC as a whole have been trying to remove PACs and undo Citizens United, which alone would gut Netanyahu's influence in the USA.

EDIT: Since this is somehow controversial, the AIPAC is a pipeline of campaign funding directly from Israel. Democrats have on several occasions pushed bills that would overturn citizens united which fail to pass both chambers of congress including HR1 For the People Act

We used the Russians to destroy the Russians.

A spokesperson for Western Sydney International said the four buildings Quasar was hired for are more than 90 per cent complete.

They said Aerowest, the primary contractor, is continuing to work with subcontractors to finish the project.

Kind of counter to the claims earlier in the article

Managing director Anthony El-Hazouri said it is a difficult situation.

"We're still taking stock of it; we're not sure if we are owed anything at this point in time," he said.

"It's always been a very busy site, it has progressed on schedule, on budget, very professionally, we had no real reason to suspect anything untoward."

Mr El-Hazouri said he is confident of restarting work soon, with several new builders expressing interest in the project.

"We are hoping ... in a matter of a couple of weeks we can recommence on site and keep the project going toward its projected completion date," he said.

Has anybody in the project's development actually asked for help or who tf is making a big stink out of it so early?

Coins will dissolve within a month, pass once small enough. US Quarters are Copper with a plating of Copper Nickel Alloy, all of which will dissolve in acid.

Something an incredibly large number of people do not understand is that solid objects cannot pass through you: anything larger than 1-2mm will not get past the Pylorus Sphincter at the end of your stomach.

Any claims otherwise are misled bullshit.

EDIT: Lots of typos

I hope someday I still date my wife as enthusiastically as I date yours.
