Kevin Trudeau gets 10 years in prison

IIRC, the jail time is not for the books and infomercials. It is for the fact he refused to pay the fine for the books and infomercials, claiming "proverty" while still living a very rich lifestyle. The jail time was for criminal contempt.

Stuck between cultures

I am Chinese born and moved to the US when I was 4. I consider myself an American. Yet, I've never really had many of the issues described in this thread. I am not sure if I am lucky, or perhaps unobservant. I have not ever really been directly insulted due to my race, the only real moments I...

Amazon only guarantee price matches on televisions and cellphones. They do not price match anything else AFAIK.

Amazon shipping really slow for anyone else?

Prime guarantees delivery within 2 business days, so the actual time to ship is as fast as you would expect to make that possible. As in, same day, or next day at latest.

With the advances in screen tech, does the good 'o CRT still have any advantages?

Mostly display lag, and display lag only really applies in very rare circumstances, or if the LCD has a ridiculous amount. Also, numerous LCDs have sub-1 frame lag at 60 fps, which is sufficient for nearly all purposes.

why can't we do as we please in life?

Empathy and compassion are relative depending on the person. And many people care more about "doing what they please in life" than empathy and compassion to others. If one could guarantee empathy and compassion to all, from all, then no, we do not need laws, norms, or limits. But one can't, so...

Because what you want to do and what pleases you will affect what other people want to do and pleases them. And vice versa. /thread

Refrigerator causing interference, possible fix?

Yes, its a mini fridge listed as 1.3 amps. That's why it is confusing me, I would expect a full sized fridge affecting the line but a mini fridge? I want to keep the mini fridge in the room, which is why I am wondering if there is a fix that doesn't involve moving it to another line. A UPS or...

I actually have the fridge unplugged, and so far nothing has occurred. Although the flickering and popping is erratic, sometimes it won't occur for hours. So it is difficult to tell.

I was considering getting a voltage regulator for my monitor and speakers, but I figured I might as well try to nip the problem at the source with the fridge. It may be affecting other electronics in less noticeable ways. That would make things warm that I want to keep cold. It would also make...

How do you plan to live with your parents after they are retired?

Let me add on to that: there is a wide variety of morally acceptable middle ground. While it is admirable to take care of your parents by living with them constantly, it is also not immoral to take a slightly less extreme approach.
