Comparing Internet Cafe Rates Worldwide
tcd004 writes "I recently began compiling the hourly rates from Internet cafes around the world into a map. The result reveals wildly different prices, even in countries with similar economic conditions and technological development. This often puts access out of reach for large populations in developing countries who live on less than $1 per day. It seems government policies and telecom deregulation (in countries like Nigeria) are often the strongest forces determining a cafe's hourly rates. If you want to do some of your own rate hunting, take a look at sites like Cybercafes.com."
PLEASE! What a load of crap.
Being a "smoker" is not a state of being, its a habit, an action. Therefore you are not being discriminated against as a person if you are not allowed to smoke in certian places -- it would be different if, say, the sign said "No Smokers Allowed" instead of "No Smoking" Its no different than laws preventing me from strutting around nude, or laws that require me to wear shoes when I go into a resturant.
As a Barefooter I'm Sooo discriminated against. Bitch Bitch.

See, as a smoker, you're a pain in the butt. You smell funny, you stink up the air, and you give cancer to others. This sort of discrimination is ok, as you've earned it. Contrast this with, say, racial discrimination, which is bad because 1) People can't change their race (you can refrain from smoking) and 2) Race has zero practical effect on anything.
So, how about instead of trying to push your smoke on the rest of us you just stop smoking?
