"Correlation doesn't imply causation, but it does waggle its eyebrows suggestively and gesture furtively while mouthing 'look over there'."
Instinctual behaviors are not considered planned behaviors. This is a unique display from the chimp in question that other chimps don't do, so it is not instinctual. Previous questions were if it was perhaps a learned behavior or that the initial gathering and stockpiling was unrelated to the use of the rocks to throw at zoo visitors. The fact that he seems to have recognized that he has a better chance of successfully attacking the visitors by portraying peaceful action and concealing his weapons gives much more evidence that this chimp is capable of advanced thought and planning.
Put the phone in DFU mode to reset it even if locked. Press and hold down the 'Home' button as you plug the phone into the computer. This places it in DFU mode which allows the phone to be restored (ie, phone is wiped and iOS is reinstalled) in iTunes. Once this is done the phone can be reactivated and used again.
Alamo Drafthouse was one of my top 5 favorite things about Austin when I lived there. Every theater should be like that. Good food, beer, movies. I also loved that they would have nights where they showed more niche films as well. Red Vs Blue marathons were great too:D
Another secret to get your ETF waived is to change your address to a location where they don't have coverage. If you live in an area that shows as no coverage on their maps then they are supposed to automatically waive the ETF. When I worked there, they didn't even require proof.
I worked for Verizon before I worked for AT&T (I'm out of the cell industry now, thank god) and there seemed to be less inaccuracies in billing with Verizon. Of course, both tend to pass on any government regulatory charges to the customer (and there are a LOT). Municipal, county, state, and federal fees add up. That's why your bill will never be the advertised pricing. And I'm not talking just taxes. I mean, it is not entirely the carrier's fault. They have to make up those regulatory fees somehow, I just dislike the way that they name them so that they look like required fees from the government.
After working for AT&T, it is no surprise to me that they rate so lowly. Their employees often find their hands tied when they want to help a customer.
They also have a 0-5 score that all accounts are given. This score is one of the first things an agent sees when the customer's account comes up. Customers whose accounts rate a 0 or 1 (either due to being on the cheapest plan or due to poor credit/payment history) find themselves treated like a red-headed step child. AT&T's policies actually state that any customer threatening to disconnect their service due to a dispute should be transferred to a senior representative UNLESS they are a 0 or a 1. 0's and 1's should instead be disconnected immediately and have their Early Termination Fee waived. Essentially, AT&T doesn't want them as customers and will drop them the instant they have an excuse.
Look at the state of Medicare and Social Security, though. They are operating at a horrible loss and probably won't even exist in their current form in the next 20 years. People constantly tout Medicare and Social Security as the model for how things should be done, but they are only surviving due to the influx of money from a generation that will likely never gain any benefit from them.
I usually equip them with laser weaponry or rocket launchers. If someone manages to disable them enough to render them unable to defend themselves, the data is usually pretty slagged too.
I'm so tired of people pulling out the race card every time ANYONE says they disagree with Obama or think he's a poor president. It is possible to disagree with someone or dislike them for reasons that aren't based on race, you know.
The problem is that concrete doesn't cure properly in high temperatures due to the water evaporating too quickly. Even a hot summer day can make the concrete not cure properly, so imagine how it would fare in the massive heat being generated by the core.
Ah, I see. I wasn't re-reading my sentence. Allow me to correct: Your argument is rather like saying that the TV show Big Bang Theory (or any TV show for that matter) doesn't exist because you don't have a TV.
I'd be for that. If messages are coming and we're able to receive, then we may get information on building better receivers and a transmitter. If I was sending messages into the past, I'd want to include instructions on how to improve the ability to receive and also how to transmit.
Actually, not really. This type of time-travel (well, information being sent through time) requires that the past civilization have developed a receiver/method to detect the messages from the future.
If we developed the technology to send messages back in time using this method next week, we wouldn't be able to receive the messages until next week because right now we don't have anything set up to receive the messages.

There's a difference here between your "rights" as a PlayStation3 owner and the "respect" you feel Sony should give its customers. Yes, it would be wonderful to be able to create home-brew software and what-not for your device. But that is not a/right/. Your rights in this situation are clearly outlined by the ToS and EULA of PSN. Sony owns PSN and has clearly stated they do not want you using systems with pirated or home-brew software on their network. You are more than free to make your home-brew software, but you are not free to use said home-brew software on their networks.
This is rather like a couple of kids playing. Your friend Sony has invited you over to play at his house and invited you to bring over your toy robot for a robot fight. However, when he sees the flame thrower that you grafted onto the arm of said robot, he declines to allow you to bring it into his house.
Although flame-throwing robot toys/would/ be awesome.
Problem being that there is no way for you to prove that the liquid exposure occurred 3mo ago versus yesterday. So they say, "LDI is positive for liquid damage, no warranty." You say "That happened 3mo ago and is unrelated." They say to prove it, and you can't so they win.

Actually, it's xkcd's interpretation and bias. It's the alt-text from the comic I linked and I thought it was funny. Thanks for playing, though!

He was a community organizer for how many years? Organizing his supporters is about the only thing he knows how to do.
I liked the post from one of the developers on the Windows Phone team. "The S in 4S stands for sadface :("

I concede that I did make a grammatical error.
I'd be for that. If messages are coming and we're able to receive, then we may get information on building better receivers and a transmitter. If I was sending messages into the past, I'd want to include instructions on how to improve the ability to receive and also how to transmit.
That just because we don't have a receiver for a signal doesn't mean the signal doesn't exist. It's a rather simple concept.
Actually, not really. This type of time-travel (well, information being sent through time) requires that the past civilization have developed a receiver/method to detect the messages from the future.
If we developed the technology to send messages back in time using this method next week, we wouldn't be able to receive the messages until next week because right now we don't have anything set up to receive the messages.

Gah, wasn't signed in for making this comment. Drats :/
So if I got banned from /. then it doesn't mean that my computer was just licensed? Well, that's a relief!
