This happened a few years ago for the iconography in Visual Studio (2010 I believe) too, and the users were up in arms. It took what felt like a tremendous amount coordinated feedback over a very long time to get some very small concessions from Microsoft. If you don't like it you had better start letting them know about it now and en-mass, because this decision will have a LOT of inertia behind it. It won't be easy to get them to change their minds at this point.
For all you with their smart TVs, they report home and will disable networking functionality if they cannot report back to the mothership. Yes, LAN functionality is blocked when your TV cannot call home to report in. So much for the built in media player functionality. Hmmm, are they doing an LG and spying on what you're watching, another case of midgetpron.avi?
If you don't understand the basics about physics then there really isn't much point in continuing this conversation. Pretty much anyone who finished highschool should be able to understand what I'm saying.
When you say "take in", you mean the food that people put in their mouths. But not all nutrients that people put in their mouths are absorbed in the blood stream. Some are passed in the stools, and others are metabolised by the gut bacteria.
And when I say "put out" I include everything that leaves the body, including unprocessed food that ends up in the toilet.
So between "taking in", "putting out", and "storing" everything eventually adds up to 0. It doesn't matter how efficient your body is at all for this calculation, because efficiency only effects the distribution of "putting out" vs "storing". It's a zero sum game with the rules enforced by physics.
Um, no, you're wrong. One possibility is that their bodies excrete a higher percentage of the food they take in without metabolizing it. No magic involved.
I think you have a too simplistic view of human bodies. They are not machines that perfectly process whatever is put into them.
How is "excreting" not putting calories out? It doesn't matter how the calories come out, be it exercise, taking a crap, or cutting off your arm, those are still calories that leave the system.
The whole point is many skinny people violate this law but do not get obese.
No, they don't. If they did somehow take in more calories then they put out without gaining weight they would be destroying matter and energy, which is physically impossible in our universe. Our bodies are not some magical boxes where the laws of physics suddenly stop applying.
Do you really want to give Google yet more access to your personal information / habits?
Based on all the wonderful services they provide for me with that information (like Google Now, automatic traffic notifications based on my traveled routes,etc), and the fact that I haven't seen any actual bad things from it, yes, yes I do.
Can you explain what's wrong with the word to a non-native English speaker? I haven't ever seen it before, but looking at its dictionary definition, it seems to be a legitimate word in that context.
It's very out of place. It's like seeing a text message from your 85 year old grandmother saying "YOLO!"
At the calorie level they are EXACTLY identical. Those foods are only different in the WAY they are turned in to calories. A Calorie is just a measure of energy.
What far greater uses are there for a sub-orbital craft ? And don't tell me that this is a stepping stone to an orbital craft. It isn't. If they wanted to design an orbital craft next, they would basically have to start from scratch.
Wow, it's almost like you think sub-orbital craft and orbital craft don't share any technology at all. All orbital craft have to move through the thick lower atmosphere before they reach orbit. Learning how to do that quickly, efficiently, and safely is just one thing that we area learning with these vehicles.
The people who have died in the cause of manned space flight knew the risks and accepted them. No one forced them to do these dangerous things. They obviously thought the benefits outweighed the risks.
So you would have no problem at all if I secretly modified the EPROM data of your car's computer so that it no longer starts up? I haven't permanently broken your car you see, you should be perfectly capable of fixing the damage yourself if you can figure out what I did.
I can't vouch for the quality of their products or service, but I know Robocoin is one of the leading Bitcoin ATM manufacturers. According to Coin ATM Radar, there currently are 44 Robocoin ATMs operational worldwide, in the United States, the UK, Canada, Spain, Japan,... Robocoin provided the very first Bitcoin ATM machine in the world, in October 2013 in Vancouver, Canada.
They are currently ranked 2nd, after Lamassu with 90 ATMs. But the Lamassu ATMs are mostly smaller and cheaper one-way machines (cash to Bitcoin), although they do sell a two-way solution now.
On Coin ATM Radar, a total of 267 operational Bitcoin ATMs are registered at the moment.

8 != 300, but you already know that.

Taking a crap counts as "calories out".
Everything that enters our body either stays in it, or is removed from it in some way. It's a zero sum game with the rules enforced by physics.

The republicans would never allow a change that would bring so many young people to the polls.
What's the joke about the typewriter song? I'm aware of the song, but I didn't think there was any kind of joke associated with it.

Someone in the mail-room will PAY for this!
In general, people who have problems with installing/running Linux these days are trying to impose their Windows experience on it.
If by "Windows Experience" you mean having working sound after the installation is completed, then you are right.
Who chooses the seed?
With or without the government subsidies?

Do any electronic voting systems actually work by sending around PDFs? If so I don't recall hearing about them.

Just because this specific ship was going to be used for tourism doesn't mean the technology developed for it wouldn't have far greater uses.

Seriously, try find network adaptor settings in 7
Right click the network icon in the Notification Area > Open Network and Sharing Center > Change Adapter Settings. 3 clicks isn't so bad.

Wow, that's /almost/ 1 per state.
