Presumably, if you are manufacturing in space you are also mining on asteroids instead of digging up our planet, still, this is not a simple answer to all our problems
How much money can this honestly be worth... each view can't be worth much more than a web impression and users rarely go into the menu of their TV... I can't imagine the revenue they make being worth the absolute PR headache this would end up being. Never mind that it might be illegal is some parts of the world.
It just doesn't make a lot of sense for a company that big, making that much money, to risk their reputation for a pittance.
Yeah because Mcdonalds has never heard of using a spreadsheet.
These companies are acutely aware of the cost of labor at all times, just like they are with the cost of food... if they can cut costs, they will, it means more profit for the folks on top.
I don't know what your skills are in particular but I have not had much trouble finding jobs that don't drug test and I get paid fairly well for my skills. I suppose the demand for your skills matters, as well as the industry. I have been working developing commercial, user facing software for nearly 20 years and I have rarely encountered a drug testing company. The vast majority don't seem to care.
seems to me like colinization would mostly be done by machines at that point, building us structures to live in, growing us food on a new world, and so forth... why should we work harder or mars than we do on earth?
the real question is, who goes on a crazy trip, or is part of a crazy race. If the presenters aren't regular they won't gel together in the ways that made the holy triumvirate work, they had a certain chemistry, developed over time by doing these crazy trips and challenges and races. If the new crew isn't given the same opportunity then those segments will fall flat and in a lot of ways those are the segments that made top gear successful. Sure, everyone liked the car segments and the start in a reasonably priced car, but lets be honest, most people were tuning in for the big crazy trips and to watch Hammond struggle to find food in a foreign culture or watch Clarkson fail to ride a scooter.
I'm worried they wont recapture that... I believe it could be done with a new group but you need the right presenters and you need consistency so they can develop a real group dynamic.
They may have said he was not a viable candidate or that he was just a reality TV star but thats not ignoring him, it is certainly not ignoring him when you do that for the majority of the time on your news broadcasts. Its not even close to ignoring Trump, its giving him the microphone, at that point it almost doesn't matter what the talking heads have to say.
If you want to see what its like to be ignored by the meida, take a look at what they did with Sanders, thats ignoring a candidate.
Bullcrap. This has been the primary point of contention between Bernie Sanders and the democratic leadership. The current democratic front runner for president is on record as saying it is impossible and a bad idea and will never ever happen. Thats the democratic standard these days, its not very liberal.
Now if the question was "do you hear progressives calling for full public healtcare" then sure, that happens all the time, but the democratic party no longer strongly represents progressive values. It only supports things that are "liberal" when they can draw a line of outrage between them and the republicans.
That sounds more like an edge case mistake where it mis-identified the song in question. Unfortunately that is bound to happen in some cases, which is why we call it an edge case. If the program didn't delete the originals by default it wouldn't be that bad though ideally you would be able to go through after the fact and flag that as a mistake, forcing it to upload your original and serve it back to you.
I don't think they specifically coded it to try to mis-identify tracks but with any automated system like this mistakes will happen, which once agains brings us back to a massive UI failing. I think thats where they blew it. I find it hard to believe that they maliciously tried to destroy particular rare tracks of popular songs.
Seems pretty reasonable to drop that exemption now that apple is doing find and has invested in a new headquarters in your town. I can understand why they gave the exemption in the first place, apple being there meant rich engineers and managers living in the town paying taxes and you didnt want to lose them, but now, they are strong and aren't going anywhere.
Also, how can Cupertino be broke, I would imagine property taxes there would be through the roof, housing prices certainly are.
I'm pretty confident that is covered by the EULA, its a feature that it serves up a copy of your music from the cloud, only to you, if that music doesn't exist in the apple music library.
Deleting the original files is really bad form though and doing so without confirmation is a violation of Apple's own UI guidelines.
There is another democratic candidate? What are you talking about? I watch CNN 5-6 hours a day, I'm pretty sure if there was another democratic candidate I would have heard about it by now.
You realize that this has been said about every presidential election for the last 20 years or so. Its always an emergency, we always need to be afraid of the boogie man. Maybe start nominating people that the huge swaths of independent voters will actually vote for and you wont have to worry so much about these crazy fringe candidates.
no, what he said was that the states Hillary won were primarily red states that she (and he) would not win in the general election. I think you need to work on your comprehension a bit

Thats what the manufacturers lobbied for, so it must be best for the country.
Maybe you should put that on your resume?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Thats a good one. Seriously.... you should lead with that one.
No, its really just because you want to be a sanctimonious jerk.
I wonder how we managed this before breathalyzers.
he very clearly said "exemptions for non-medical reasons"

how will the poor buy anything when they have no income?

Buying into the two party system is what ensures that we will stay in this mess forever.

Still a piss poor design, violates the principle of least surprise and apples UI standards.

In what way is bernie sanders denying black voters as illegitimate? I'm not even quite sure what that means.
I still think she will eeek out a win but you do know that she is polling 2 points behind Trump nationally right?
