They can and have been recreated. They just suck due to having very low light output.

I worked for RadioShack for nearly 10 years. I started as a part time sales guy and ended up as Store Manager being tapped for a District Manager slot. After I went through some of the DM training I left the company because I knew I didn't want to be a DM and I didn't want to stay a Store Manager forever either.

Tandy (RadioShack) tried to save themselves but their all of their core markets were gone. Not as many people buying parts, other retailers caught up with their "Buy it cheap in China and sell it in America" business strategy, cell phone sales declined dramatically in both volume and profitability, computer sales did the same, and of course like Sears they completely missed the sea change of Internet Sales.

I've never figured out a way that RS could have survived the period that killed them but I do think it might be possible for them to be successful NOW...if they were still around.

As you can see I am an Admin on DJMs home instance. I'd like to look at what you have.

I like Tasting History, Max Miller does a good job.

They tried that pivot at least twice and couldn't make it work.

So is there an update to this article from nearly 3 years ago?

Surely you mean LinuX11.

I can see them attempting to declare martial law and cancel elections because of some sort of shit.

Honestly I've been hearing that same line since Bush Jr was in Office. Heard it again for Obama, then again for Trump, then again for Biden, and now again for Trump.

If Trump does take it there then we start watering the tree.

The major difference is that over time the Republicans have allocated more and more funds to the Executive to enable them to build up a persistent “enforcement.”

In no way shape or form is that a "Republican" problem. Democrats have been happily handing ever more power to the Executive for decades. As I've said in other places this is a symptom of Congress members being more worried about re-election and campaign donations than handling the business of the nation.

I’m beginning to wonder if the education we received was entirely on purpose.

I graduated in '91 from a town in the MidWest with about 30,000 people. We covered "separate but equal". I tire of people blaming the education system when in reality most people are ignorant by choice.

As an American I am deeply offended, horrified, angry and increasingly resigned to what may have to happen.

The 2026 elections will likely be the most defining moment in American History since the American Revolution.

This looks like something that was said between the head of the SVR and the leader of Belarus during a talk in Minsk. If true then it's meant for domestic audiences in Russia and Belarus.

Everyone in the West knows that Russia would get bitch slapped out of Ukraine if even a few of the NATO members, never mind the whole organization, decided to get directly involved.
