Bad design? I've got several programs that let you pick which controller to use and assign whatever macros you like to each button (including completely remapping looking/moving/etc). Oddly enough, an N64 emulator from years ago is one of those programs.
It might be applicable for smartphone apps, but in no way does it solely imply iDevice applications.

No kidding. I mean, matter translation beams won't exist for another 67 years and supposedly there's one sitting in some guy's workshop from the 80's and it still works perfectly with no maintenance and no active crystal rehydration? Please! Assuming the genius could produce a touchscreen surface just adds insult to injury.
So, what you're saying is he should be greedy and vote for whichever politician will give him the most benefits as opposed to who he believes will do the best job running the country and handle issues in a fair and constitutional manner (as much as can be expected from a politician, anyway)? Voters like you scare me. What do you plan to do when you run out of other peoples' money?
Problem is the road is bumper-to-bumper for 18+ hours a day. Congestion is expected at rush hour, but if the road can't handle normal loads it's not performing to need and needs upgrading.
We manage to ship most of our children off to public schools, I think we could manage to extend it to local military organizations at age 19. The thing that really peeves me about the draft is the "male" filter. Get rid of that, and then it's not that big of an issue.
Sad but true. And in the process they'll confiscate as many firearms as they think they can under the guise of "evidence" and "just cause" then refuse to return them or "lose" them despite court cases confirming that legally they must return the firearms. Or, they'll flat-out tell the defendant that "sure, the law says X, but you'll have to have a case to prove you're innocent of it. If you just forfeit your guns, we'll drop the charges." which is corrupt, through and through.
Most cops I know arrest on what they feel "should be" illegal because regardless of actual legality, the poor sap will be severely inconvenienced, drained of savings, and possibly have their reputation/career destroyed in the process for daring to do something the cop doesn't like.
And be willing to do without. That's the part that gets most people. They don't want the loud commercials, but they still want to watch Desperate Housewives or whatever the latest drivel is. So they deal with the loud commercials and complain to people that don't matter. Obviously, the show is worth it to them so loud commercials still get watched.
I disagree. Not too long ago, most families slaughtered their own or raised them for when the butcher came. I'd say there were far less veggies then than now. And how do you explain the millions of hunters that go out, some multiple times, every year to kill, dress, butcher, and freeze their own meat (bird, deer, or otherwise)?
Some people don't know how to turn the flash off, or don't want to go through the trouble of switching modes when taking sky pictures vs. near-object (friends at the show) pictures.
People don't like that answer. I've actually had a friend of mine freak out at me because I explained something very similar, but on a personal level. The only reason anyone [normal, non high-profile] isn't dead is because no one has decided they need to die. Tell me, if someone decides you need killing but you don't know that, what's to stop them from walking up behind you with a garrote? Braining you with a rock? Using a large stick to beat you? Sharpening a stick with previously mentioned rock and impaling you? Or just wrapping their hands around your neck until you stop twitching? Absolutely nothing, and that's without getting into "modern" tools with metals, chemicals, and other force-enhancing tech. She didn't particularly like the idea that her existence depends entirely on the fragile sanity and civilized mindset of everyone else in her environment.
The sooner everyone realizes you can't completely control the risk without destroying your life anyway the sooner we can get on with living. Life involves risk, you can't prevent everything, and you will die eventually; learn to live so life means something in case you do expire earlier than expected!
Checkout OsmAnd and Navit. Both are open source GPS programs for the Android. CoPilot is a similar, $30 app. I was looking into it for similar reasons (I hike a lot, which means traveling where cellphones don't work). Haven't actually had a chance to test them recently, but it's a start. The maps are pretty heavy for all of them, however, starting at about 2GB on the SD card and bloating towards 4-5 if you include all the extras (points of interest, etc).
American women usually spend all morning cooking the meal, and then American men spend all afternoon/evening sleeping. Doubt there's much sex going on after stuffing themselves silly with all that delicious food. Possible, but definitely not the norm.
Just because we can't see or hear the giant ninja orgy happening in the shadows doesn't mean there isn't one. We assume they're solitary since we only ever see one at a time attacking.
Maybe because it costs some of us hundreds or thousands of dollars per day we're not able to work? Because they hold court during hours most people are working? Because they have so many stupid nonsensical rules that they use more juries than they should to prosecute people in the course of "protecting people from themselves?"
Some people don't like wasting their time with the joke.
You're thinking antitician if you want any change.

They're banking on the idea that by opting to fly you've "consented" to search before boarding the aircraft. Check the fine print next time you buy a ticket. It's bullshit, but they're claiming you've consented.

I'm conservative and that makes MY skin crawl. Admittedly, I dislike both parties but dislike the Repubs less.

No, just a victim of the uncanny valley. The dialog was really annoying, however. Not an epic, but enjoyable.

No, not everyone. There are still a few control rods in the pile, but that's not enough to moderate everything.
Could say that in any base really. He didn't ask about the last significant digit.

Heaven forbid a juror look up the definition of a word, or be well-informed about something referenced in the case!
Unions have their place, but they also destroy perfectly good places. See: GM, Ford, etc.

Tax cuts aren't the issue, spending it on people is.
