If you were to nix some coding jargon, you think "master" and "slave" would go first

Associated Press pretty much instantly corroborated. This information was on a distributed intelligence briefing that gets disseminated to around a thousand officials. After Trump lied about not being briefed, it's not hard to pressume that at least a couple told the media "Yeah, that intel is in one of my print copies of a daily briefing from late March." Obviously they cannot say who they are because Trump will fire them if they talk. But AP, along with Reuters, are the two most celebrated news companies. Do you honestly think they would scuttle their credibility to slander the Russians?

This is no anti-Russian hoax. Don't let your ideology blind you.

And I urge you to look at anything he did during his time on the Supreme Court. It's not unheard of that people's ideologies shift upon reaching the Supreme Court. Take Souter or Stevens, for example. If Kavanaugh was a hack, then how would he vote with Ginsburg and Sotomayor as much as Alito and Thomas? Why is he characterized as barely left of Roberts and the closest Judge to the ideological center?

There's good reasons to be weary of Kavanaugh, but this is a characterization of his record.

Kavanaugh dissented on the grounds that he didn't feel that the Supreme Court was the body best suited to extend this right. Both his dissent, as well as Alito's that Thomas joined, make this distinction abundantly clear. I'm not a fan of Alito or Thomas, and Kavanaugh has a rocky record, but Kavanaugh is in near ideological lockstep with Roberts (check the stats on SCOTUS blog if you disagree). He is no partisan ideologue.

Regardless, Gorsuch wrote a great opinion. I highly recommend reading it.

Meditations by Marcus Aurelius is always a go-to recommendation.

I'm reading "The Color Purple" right now. Other good books to read given the current events of the world are "Heart of Darkness" and "Things Fall Apart." I'm also a big fan of "Catch-22."

For history books, I enjoyed both "Why Nations Fail" and "The Invention of Russia - The Rise of Putin and the Age of Fake News."

All of the other choices in this thread so far look really good.

The nice statue is on Mercenary Park and Badwater Basin, too

Whoops, I cut out the wrong bit of your quote. Agree with you in principle, but I wrote the wrong thing down. My bad

It also makes it so you actually need to think which drastically increases the skill ceiling on the easiest class in the game.

I love these changes and hope we get NA games running them.
