The publisher does a lot more work than Amazon in this scenario, they literally just add the information you give them to their database... I completely fail to see how they figure that is worth 30%, I think they have chosen that number as it is the highest possible amount they can add while making themselves look like they get the least.
Unfortunately for Microsoft, they likely would have been better off actually breaking the law,
Who says they didn't? Your quote from the chamber of commerce (a business lobbying group, wonder where their interests lie) seems to imply they are using anti-monopoly laws to encourage competition, isn't that kind of the point?
Welcome, brother, grab a cowl and toss your razor in the bin on your right. Is it state the obvious Friday already, or is this just another opportunity for an argument about human impact on the climate?
Why is it idiots like you are always so obsessed with the founders and the collapse of the Roman empire? Did you all read the same book or have the same history professor or something?
Isn't this totally the wrong thread to complaint that Linux's weakness is a changing desktop in? What's next on your script, I'll bet it's wireless drivers.
You don't have milkmen? I do, I don't order milk from him as it's a bit overpriced compared to supermarket milk, but he still drops some off now and again if he has extra. If you've ever been to France you may notice that they still have lots of nice little shops, cafes and bars in their small towns. Some people believe that these things provide a tangible benefit to quality of life and are worth preserving.
The F-35 is not built as an air superiority platform. It needs the F-22,”
Translation: Yeah, I know you just bought me a PS4 but I'm going to need to keep my PS3 as well. In fact you better saving for a PSP as well fro when I'm out and about.
You do realise that Carthage is still inhabited don't you? It was inhabited shortly after the Romans destroyed it, the "sowing the fields with salt" thing is a myth. Sorry, couldn't help myself.
For example, the states that thought they'd pay for their health care systems by increasing the taxes on cigarettes have learned that increased price per pack has resulted in a decrease in revenue as more people stop smoking. Increasing the gas taxes will cause less use and less tax revenue, so it will be harder to pay for the things the gas tax is intended to pay for.
Shocked you're modded insightful when you seem to have overlooked the obvious point that the idea is to reduce consumption, which will help attain reductions in costs of managing smoking/gas externalities. Also overall revenues will not necessarily go down, certainly in the case of gas tax. Typical Libertarian logic fail.
Dominos has an electric bike scooter doing delivery in the Netherlands that has a noise machine.
More for pedestrians than cars, to stop them walking in front of the bike because they don't hear it, this happens to me fairly often when I'm cycling. People won't even check the road but will assume that because they can't hear anything nothing is coming.
...you're allowed to cut a picket line, and they have to let you through. In some cases, the protesters refused to move, while a wage-worker who depended on the income from actually working their job wanted to pass
Those commie Union workers don't work for a wage? Just copies of Das Kapital and good will?

Obviously not or he'd be seeing adverts.

Isn't that a bit like asking a traffic warden to investigate corruption in Interpol?

Supermarkets crushed the little local shops because they were better and all the nostalgia in the world couldn't change that fundamental reality.
No, it was because they were cheaper, for as long as they need to be to generate a monopoly.

I don't think they worked properly on xbox from what I remember, the mini games were awful in that game...
Can you name any that weren't utter disasters though?
Wasn't Dragon Age 2 enough to make you wary?

Stop deceiving yourself on your true intentions and buy a sybian then,

Haven't these guys ever RTFM'd before?

Sorry, wrong window.
Evidently they can as there are always new firms opening and new drivers starting.
Make sure you ask him if he's a cop. If he is he totally has to say yes.
There is a free market, if you think a taxi is too expensive then don't get in it.
This sounds more like a problem with the place you have chosen to live than a problem with taxi operators. Live nearer a nice bar with nice beer.
Uber prices are largely the same as the established operators so this is a bit of a non-argument.
