Now we effectively get an 8 episode first season delayed to Sept 2017 and a 7 episode second season season in Jan 2018.
This isn't even unusual for a fall premiere. Why call this a split season? All fall shows pretty much go on hiatus for November through December and come back in January after the holidays.
Regardless, if it gets to the point where you're not allowed to be disparaging toward yourself - something has gone too far. This trademark wouldn't even be disparaging to non-members of the band, if it were disparaging at all.
Argument from Authority. It's a type of logical fallacy, of course - and his qualifications as a doctor have no bearing on his knowledge of the subject.
Feature phones were all junk before they had to compete with smartphones and I never liked or used the extra features.
If I had all the computing power I needed in a phone and bloat slowed, then I could reasonably go 5-6 years on the same phone. If I have to replace the battery after 2-3 years, that's minor surgery but still cheap. There are still phones out there that make it easier still.
Phones wear out. The get dropped in toilets and sinks and bathtubs. They get stolen. Screens get cracked.
I don't think that's universal. I've never cracked a phone screen and I've only flushed 1 phone down a toilet in nearly 20 years of cell phone usage.
That's a relatively recent phenomenon. And I doubt it's here to stay. We're going to be entering the era of "good enough" soon, and most people won't have much desire to be on the upgrade treadmill anymore.
Why would Netflix pay to license more content for Canada than it's legally allowed to show? It's a bit circular, because if the rules were lifted today Netflix would still have nothing more in their catalog for Canadians.
My comment is displaying in Arial - a proportional font. The font operates the same whether it's a word processor or not. If a word processor is displaying it differently, it's also not just a space character being displayed and the file won't contain just a space character either.
I'm pretty sure that the actual space (ASCII character 32) is rendered the same width regardless of its placement, even on proportional fonts. Individual characters stand alone in size and rendering, except when ligatures are involved. Some programs will insert a different kind of white space character - like an em or en space, or a second space after a period - but a font does not have anything different to offer when rendering a space between sentences. All you have to do is look at your own original comment to see that the space is the same size.
In Slashdot comments, my double-spacing is rendered in HTML as a single space because HTML only renders one space in a consecutive string of white space. However, I developed that habit out of visual preference - I started typing well after the typewriter era.
Word at least used to automatically convert end of sentence to two spaces anyway - maybe they've changed. I still use two spaces at the end of a sentence because it's easier to parse.
I did mean that, but forgot the name. But I'm pretty sure that it's the first stepping stone on the way to Inner-Platform Effect anyway. Very likely you have both.
Flippant statements like "just get a virtual phone number" are not constructive.
It doesn't even help. I have a friend in a federal prison. I got a phone number in the same prefix (same first six digits) and they still treat it as the long distance higher rate, despite claiming to have a lower rate for local calls. Local must only mean within their facility.
No matter how problematic the conditions of this study are, it's more ethical than a controlled in-vivo study of cigarette smoking (where science is telling people to smoke for science).
I try to limit artificial sweetener use, but even if there were a problem with these chemicals causing harm - they are usually several hundred times sweeter than sugar, so there will be such a minuscule amount in real-world food products that this probably won't matter. All that said, sucralose tends to give me a headache - especially when consumed without caffeine. It's weird that their own marketing web sites specifically call out that it is not a known vasodilator, because that's exactly what it sounds like it's doing.

It's free to air in the US.

Prepaid phones don't require a contract (other than a terms of use agreement, that is).

No, it's not. It's the same argument as my current desktop computer.

There are no rules from the CRTC about Netflix
Reply to the person that said there were. I'm just saying what the logical conclusion would be based on that premise.
But it does make you wonder why they chose hardware.slashdot.org for this story.
Air Buds?
They found out there was money in the banana stand. So they bought a bigger banana stand.
People keep their phones for only a few years.

All of that says that most digital editors currently don't add a second space between sentences.
I know all about kerning - but that's between letters within the word. Nothing to do with spacing sentences.

Second-System Effect. What you're really buying is a programming framework in the end.
This is billing related. If a federal agency is to be involved, it should be the FTC.

Despite saying I had no idea, I always really thought it was too yet to catch sleep apnea symptoms and offer an oral appliance.
cure cancer, mitigate climate change
To be honest, this processor design might have applications for both.
