Had he contacted any one of a dozen agencies to handle the complaint, he'd be in no legal trouble.
And we would be adding one more to the growing list of investigations that are getting us nowhere. This needs to be out in the open. It needs to be in mainstream media.
The public has to understand that when they use a Diebold machine, they're not necessarily getting the vote they think they are.
FTA: "An important final note: the Ultimate Budget Box is complete with a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and other accessories. If you do not need a monitor or other items, feel free to subtract them from the price.
Mac Mini does not come with that stuff. Of course, if it's between a Mac Mini and a Windows machine, the cost of the OS would probably even that out.
Does this mean you'll be able to do anything in the real world through virtual means? Will we be able to solve the overcrowding problem by taking volunteers to be put into stasis and live out their entire lives in a virtual sense?
The cure seems as bad as the injury, what will all the additional programs needed just to keep the base functionality of what they bought in the first place.
Yep, guess what. It costs money to keep up a car too, what with the oil changes, keeping it clean, topping off fluids. And that's for something that's not several years old and needs regular maintenance. They don't require you to know how to keep up a car to get your license. People just LEARN that stuff. Why can't they learn basic computer maintenance?
Unfortunately, there are people in any field that will tell you whatever it takes to get your money. It is true that a small percent suffer permanent eye damage or blindness. Lasik is still a skill-based procedure. Finding the right doctor is crucial.
the idea that one club has to own an issue is more like sports than good governance
What gets me even more than that is the fact that you can even "take" an issue. If you have to consciously make a decision to "take" or "leave" a side on an issue, then you are merely pandering to the majority. Either the issue at hand aligns with your ideals or it does not. THAT is what is wrong with our political parties today.
It sounds to me like you are a highly talented individual. Perhaps you would benefit from starting your own business. That way you can work on what you want to work on.
Especially if you know anyone that would compliment your skills in a way to make a viable business venture, I'd say it's something to think about. I hear VCs are on the rise again.
I'm confused. Is this also built into the price of an artist's CD off the shelf?
What's the differenct between a digital copy of a song on a hard drive and a digital copy of a song on a CD?
This sounds like another extortion charge by record lables. They know it's convenient and that's how everyone wants to use it, so they're going to charge you to do it that way.
I got my Yahoo Music subscription at $36 for a year. That's a whole year of listening to quite a few preset and customized radio stations that never have commercials. And I can skip any songs I don't like or don't feel like listening to at the moment. I can even check a little box to remove the songs with explicit lyrics so I can safely listen at work (though, admittedly, this feature needs some tweaking).
Of course. GW did say that these powers should stay in effect "as long as we are in danger." I've got news for you. Terrorism has been around a long time, and it's not going away any time soon. As long as there are terrorists in the world (an ever broadening group, due to the changes in how we define "terrorist"), there will be a reason to keep these laws around.
The current government has no plan to EVER give up the these powers.
Yes, commercials are the only thing keeping TV afloat. I wish HBO would have commercials. Then maybe they could make something better than that "Band of Crappy Brothers" drivel.
Why charge $2 an episode when you can charge twice as much as that for the season DVD AND get all the advertising profits? AND not have to film 20 minutes out of every hour.
Face it, big and small screen entertainment industries have it pretty good. The problem is that people are willing to pay that much for their fun, so they never have to implement any efficiency techniques to what they do. "Lavish" is the word of the day with the bigwigs involved in making us our escapist worlds. The closest we've come to cutting costs in TV is reality shows.

Yeah, but it's a lot easier to RMA a part to New Egg and switch it out yourself than to try to deal with Dell Customer Support if anything goes wrong.

Juilliard, for the curious.
That "wooshing" sound going over your head is NOT the price of dial-up.
FTA: "To enable HDCP, a board must include the necessary hardware and key at the time of manufacturing."
There is no driver upgrade that will "turn on" HDCP functions. They will need to do a complete recall.
I'd be willing to bet that most of the people that see no reason to upgrade do not use websites for their banking and finances.

Now when my mom and I get into an argument and she uses the line "Hey! I brought you into this world!" I can counter with:
I gave you super healing!

As with everything, a healthy bit of skepticism should be employed with any "too good to be true" offer.

Yahoo music is a scam

I don't call that a scam. I call it pure genius.
+1 Funny for you.
-1 Sad if you think that's true. No matter which of the two parties gets elected.
Don't worry, it's only 30.
