No, his point is that gun ownership doesn't correlate well with violence statistics so there is little justification for increased gun control.It's not like he's trying to force an ar-15 into your hands.
You're laughing now but you'll be sad when this comes true and you didn't cash in on it. Though rather than a baseball cap (or perhaps in addition to), I can see a variation on the hoodie* which has become so popular in surveillance-state Britain.
*I used to think they were an unfortunate and somewhat menacing piece of attire but I think I would likely wear one myself were I iver inclined (not gonna happen) to move back there.
FWIW, I have had almost zero issues not related to wear and tear. The diesel engine removes a lot of potential issues (I understand the ignition coils were a big issue for some years for gassers). I also have manual windows and mirrors which also eliminates several potential trouble spots.
The main complaint I have is the shitty soft-touch plastics where the coating has deteriorated and looks and feels like crap. I am planning a major cleanup on all that sometime soon.
I 3 my diesel Jetta. It is a 2000 though. It's just at 210,000 miles and getting a refresh on all the important parts. With the manual gearbox, I actually find it more fun to drive than the XK8. And what's to argue with 45mpg and around 700 miles on a tank?
Up until a few years ago, it would swap around. Diesel was more expensive in winter, less expensive in summer. I understand this was down to use of kerosine for heating in winter. I'm not sure why it seems stuck this way now. Possibly it is just an anomoly related to what happens when costs increase overall but I'm not really sure.
Coasting can be detrimental to fuel consumption if your car is one that cuts fuel supply under deceleration (during coasting, fuel is needed to keep the engine turning).
I was about to post the same thing about the Streisand effect. Though I already use AdAway. Works pretty well though it blocks a site one of my apps (that I wrote) uses for real data. Easy enough to whitelist though.
The Subversion use of BDB was actually what I was thinking of when I made that comment. Forever getting jammed up and locked and requiring me to jump in and fix things (while people were waiting to be able to update/checkout production files). So glad to switch over to the filesystem based repositories. Once I'd done that and set it up to use the web interface instead of the local filesystem, my life became a lot easier.
Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity. But never attribute to stupidity that which is adequately explained by laziness.
Like he said...
I was just trying to rack my brain trying to remember which part of the movie with the little guy with the glowing finger that was in.
Fair enough. As long as your not comparing it to that BMW imposter :)
Quite often those services *were* being offered by non-Google companies until Google bought them up.
I'm sad for what they did to deja-news
Whatever it is, I think you just proved it.

Not a real mini.
You just weld the doors shut and paint a big "01" on the side.
Yee-haw!

Like Bingo which today is known only through careful archaeological study.
I'm still fuming over lenslock...
I was thinking of ebay. But you're right, they're the only ones who do. Still, Paypal could do with some competition whichever way you slice it.

Jeez, Notepad would be better than BDB.
And that is what escrow services are for. Pick one that has terms you like rather than being forced to use Paypal which is a law unto itself.
Ug. Just remembered the vast hoards of sarcasm-impaired on this site. The first sentence above was sarcasm. SARCASM, PEOPLE!
Yes, the correct response to a problematic phased rollout is not to roll back but to accelerate the schedule to full-speed-ahead.
Not to mention that there's no "have everyone" in bitcoin anyway.
Oh Berkley DB, is there any application you can't screw up?
