I can't for the life of me figure out how my photos in Photos are organized; the collections are randomly placed, and automatically uploaded pics from my Android phone clutter up everything (I've turned this off repeatedly and it keeps resurrecting itself). And when looking at an individual picture, I can't tell whether it's been shared or is part of a collection. And finding any single picture when you don't know which collection its in is nearly impossible without opening each individual collection, which isn't nearly as easy as in Picasa.
I have a question about Android encryption: I've "encrypted" this morning, but I can't tell if it actually worked. Instead of an hour, it only took about 2 minutes.
Is there a way to verify that the phone actually did anything?
No, he's spouting facts. You're whining about "free speech" because you heard someone of FOX bitching about it earlier today.
The fact is, the USTR has no choice but to cancel trademark protection for a trademark that has been proven to have been disparaging at the time it was registered. This isn't a new law; just a (semi) new lawsuit.
Also, it can't possibly be infringing on free speech, because the team is perfectly free to retain the name. They just won't get a government-sanctioned monopoly on it. In that sense, this is a HUGE victory for free speech! We're all now free to call our team "Redskins" and sell any merchandise we want with that name on it.
A real conservative would be cheering; an uneducated parrot-er of bullshit talking points would be whining about free speech.
Another made-up plot that we've been "protected" from. And who protects us from the "protectors"?
When the NSA threw away the Constitution, they became terrorists.
The key to effectively solving a complex, multifaceted problem is to attack it from all possible angles. 1 method does not negate the others; it compliments them.
The GOP has been fractured by a bunch of progressive lefts that pretend to be conservative. (Boehner, etc).
I love how today's Republicans pretend to worship Ronald Reagan, while calling any existing Reagan Republican a RINO.
Reagan raised taxes and the minimum wage when it was good for the economy, allowed fairly easy immigration for illegals already in the country, and happily met with the leaders of enemy states. Today, even talking about any of these things would have Fox News frothing at the mouth.
Obama is to the right of Reagan on a host of issues, and still we get whining from today's Republicans.
Your question implies a false equivalency -- one that's pushed by the telecoms in the U.S.
While it's true that the US has much few people per square mile, that's because most people live in cities. There's absolutely no reason that our major cities (at least) can't match the internet speeds of any other similarly sized place in the world.
New Yor City has 27,532 people per square mile. Vegas isn't even that dense and has nearly 4300 people per square mile.
Slow connection speeds in US cities have nothing at all to do with population density.
Funny how your first comment ("trafficking child porn") suddenly needs a bunch of caveats ("catching them in the act") in order to avoid "shooting" innocent people. It's almost like you're talking out your ass and haven't the brainpower to form a cogent argument.
my claim is reasonable and rooted in the common human experience. it is prima facae true.
And yet you can offer no evidence at all. He didn't say it "extinguishes a fire"; he implied that it allows a release that would exist otherwise without causing harm.
Want to protect marriage? Make divorce illegal. (Oh wait, Republicaans would never do that. But conservatives would.)
Want to greatly reduce abortions? Make contraception & sex ed easy to get. (Oh wait, Republicaans would never do that. But conservatives would.)
Want fewer people on welfare? Make a realistic job training program. (Oh wait, Republicaans would never do that. But conservatives would.)
This (along with a love of running up ridiculous deficits) is why, as a conservative, I can never, ever vote Republican. Instead, I'm stuck with the shitty centrists the Democrats nominate.
Obama is, in almost every policy area, a Reagan Republican. This is part of why Republicans hate him (the other part is that he doesn't have an R after his name).
we could see a big market crash again, perhaps worse than ever before.
That's over a hundred years away. People said in the '70s that growth was going to stop and we'd all be eating dirt. It didn't happen. Why? Because the world doesn't just consist of the U.S. and Europe. Massive growth in Japan, China, and India over the past 5 decades has fueled greater earnings on Wall Street than ever before.
So what happens when we can't count on growth from Asia? Nothing -- we still have Africa and South America for cheap labor, a rising consumer class, and vast (mostly untapped) resources. And this doesn't even take into account any new technologies that could further reduce corporate expenses (substantially cheaper energy, for example).
So yes, eventually additional growth will be impossible, and the system will collapse (unless we've moved substantially away from our current system). But we'll all be long dead by then.
That means that either those extra pumps are redundant, in which case you're wasting precious space and weight lugging around needless baggage
Yes, that's why we don't have 2 of any other organs. Oh, wait...
in which case a multi-pump design simply multiplies the chances of (cascade) failure.
Yes, that's why it's not possible to design a system where one acts as a backup and/or reinforcement rather than as a single standalone actor. Oh, wait...

Plus Picasa's desktop photo organizer was nice.

You don't understand. It could be impossible for him to disable it.
It's easily disabled. There was a time when only techies read /.; now techies are the exception rather than the rule.
Sad times.

It's Al Jazeera, and it's infinitely better than any US-based news channel.

I currently work in user experience testing, and never worked in tech until I was 32.

Feel free to protest all these freeloaders by ceasing to create anything ever again. That'll show 'em.

My first thought was: Do MRIs work on clams? This is like the genius who killed the oldest known tree in the world to see how old it was.

Check out the nearest meal replacement to this (Ensure) and compare costs, then realize why you're a dumbass.
Seriously, there've been a hundred articles about this just in the past month. Read one.
This makes them look worse, not better.
If I believed that someone was actually killing babies in this country, I'd do anything in my power to stop them. Anything.
You seem to believe that, and yet do nothing. Either you don't believe what you're spewing, or you are a coward.

Yes, any statistics more than 3 years old should just be thrown away, as they are not remotely useful.~
(Or you could just Google it yourself instead of being a fucking dipshit.)
Because unfortunately there's no law to say you can't behave like an asswipe.
As you noted, just the opposite is true. The law explicitly *encourages* cops to act like asswipes -- as long as TERRORISM!

The notion of a "personal relationship with God" is largely a post-Enlightenment concept
Post-Enlightenment? It was at the core of Enlightenment religious thinking.
The more socialist countries in Europe are in much better financial condition than the rest, and had much less of a downturn than the U.S.
Being a capitalist doesn't have to make you dumb.
