This country is doomed if other people think(?) the same way as you. Your thought process (such as it is) is really fk'ed up. You think Biden is decent, honest, and humble? Maybe your dead cat should...

I got a preview of deTerminator last week from Dave. It's a lot like HSH with an extra layer of features, mainly the addition of the AI. Very cool stuff.

That's true, Saratoga, but you can make the argument that it's just not the RPM programs that have that problem. That is why I keep saying the software is just a tool, and not some magic black box....

You must have knocked yourself out, Omar. You posted the same exact thing twice -- and both times in the wrong thread. Your mental acuity is coming under question.
