As an individual, it becomes tiresome to bear the weight of all society at all times. I dont want to think if my words, taken at face value and ouf of context hurt someone halfway round the world. I dont intentionally go to hurt people, but at the same time i am not going to continuously censor myself because we are all now globally connected. Someone got offended, good to know, but its not always a call for fucking action.
"On the good side, hate groups might be less likely to voice their opinions in public if someone were to photograph them"
It scares me that you think silencing speech you have classified as hate is acceptable.
Very few people are horrible with faces. Imagine all the unique faces you have seen in your life. Its the face-to-name connection that people sometimes have a hard time with. Quite honestly, i usually forget people's name right after i meet them unless they are very interesting. Even hot women's names drop from memory almost immediately unless they are smart too.
My father-in-law had a stroke and it broke his facial recognition. His wife could walk up to him and if she didnt speak, he would have a hard time knowing it was her. He is a locally famous psychologist, with MANY clients, so often he will have what he assumes are strangers coming up and hugging him all the time.
The entire point of individual states is to enjoy variation of law. If you dont like the laws in one state, move to one that is more amenable to you. It was never intended for the Federal Government to rule them all in the manner they do now. So instead of us having 50 chances to mess things up and try new things, we only get one, for everyone.
Wow, i fervently pray you never achieve a position of power. You have NO RIGHT to tell me what i can and cannot record and retain in public. If you dont like it, DONT GO OUT INTO PUBLIC.
I dont think you have been in many major cities. I know for sure there are areas in LA, NY, detroit, toledo, chicago, San Francisco that police are very wary about going.
I see no difference between what i see and what i can record. In the near future i WILL have an always on video recording device so that i can record and photograph at will. The world has forced this upon me by trying to dictate what i can and cannot record.
Tell that to all the Android device owners left out in the cold with regards to Jelly Bean. (yes i know ipad 1 is dropped from ios6) You cant just wave your arms and say 'but but its good NOW'. Every platform carries the weight of its past. I would like to point out i didnt think iOS was up to par until iOS 5 either.
The best thing they added to Siri is a little button next to her button that allows you to force Siri to use the phone mic instead of whatever is on the other end of the BT connection.
Mexican dirt weed has no market in So-cal. Everything here is indoor grown under very careful conditions. All the crap outdoor grown mexican weed gets shipped elsewhere. They cant compete here because the local quality is so damn good. Sure there may be quality grow-ops in mexico, but the vast majority of it is crap compared to the North American growers.
All the pot i buy is locally grown. I know the growers, ive been to their ops, I have bought plants from them. Please tell me your personal expertise on this subject.
You are kidding right? IF it looked like we were going down, you bet your ass we will launch nukes at you. Make no mistake, we are a fucking bear when pissed off.

Almost all law should have a sunset clause with review after X number of years. The law is a living thing, not 'THE LAW IS THE LAW"

You are wrong on the 'in ways we couldnt have imagined' Sci-fi covered this ground half a century ago.

By this logic every deal the Sales Dept. makes is 'subsidized' depending on customer. RPi got a sweetheart DEAL, not subsidization.

Did NOT INVENT wearable computing. Wearable computing has been an idea for a very long time, we have been waiting for technology to catch up.
Refusing service because of a MEDICAL device, would be grounds for a serious ADA lawsuit in the U.S.

By de-descalate you mean 'do what ever the agitated person wants'?

Its a POCKET COMPUTER, not a workstation.

Thats great, too bad it took this long to get a good android experience. P.S. My Nexus 7 gets delivered tomorrow.

I may be worse off RELATIVE to MY past, but in terms of human history we live like KINGS, and people like you tend to forget facts like that.
The time has long since passed that their copyright should be upheld.
That density is what gives it its gravity.
The only appropriate answer is 'Fuck you, sit down and shut up, the adults are talking.'
Do Kiwis fear the sun too??? Is sunlight banned in NZ? After all, its nuclear powered.

I dont think you understand what satire is.....
