The fourth estate has failed us, due in large part to the 1996 Telecommunications Act
The fourth estate has failed us, due in far larger part to the fascists in our government secretly taking
control of the media via Operation Mockingbird.
Nice try, shill; we can tell it's still you. (Shit, he's dumber than a toddler who thinks you can't see him because he's got a paper bag on his head... seems they're really scraping the bottom of the barrel for shills these days...)
"Grudge?" My feelings hardly enter into this. "Strictly the facts, Ma'am.";)
Anyhow, thanks for letting us know that this particular bunch of mediaschmucks is new; I'm sure they're unlike anybody else in mainstream media and totally above slanting any of their stories in any way whatsoever... *grin*
What straws am I grasping at? I only offer my subjective observation, which is to say that while I don't dispute that a majority of "pot heads" are likely unsuccessful (and perhaps even dysfunctional, although I'd argue that also applies to most people in general), an overwhelming majority of the relatively successful and/or productive people I've known fromdo consume the stuff and I'm sure there are many others who've observed the same.
I offer no explanations, pr0fessor; that's clearly for "geniuses" like yourself.;)
I should add, though, that it clearly depends on the individual and the reason(s) why they smoke (and a ton of other factors as well). All of those people I mentioned were highly intelligent but I can't speculate as to whether or not pot use might be a good idea for someone whose brain doesn't function that well to begin with, or for those who've been conditioned to believe that "pot is bad" and "it leads to even more destructive behavior" which is obviously a self-fulfilling prophecy for many...
Your ignorant meme notwithstanding, a vast number of the most successful folks out know under seventy (obviously a generational thing) smoke weed at least occasionally. I'm not at all surprised that you're unaware of this.
Your point is entirely orthogonal to the matter at hand: we engineers and "techie types" are discussing Linus' thoughts on the viability of Android as a platform; what the [fucking ignorant] consumer thinks is certainly relevant to some discussions... but not this one.
With those bleeding-edge specs, I'd guess it's a proprietary or semi-proprietary connection that'll be obsolete before the rest of us are even considering an 8k display...
This 'state of being' that is being pushed by Progressives/Democrats has made me realize that these people don't have good intentions.
They may be stupid but of course they have good intentions. You, on the other hand, are a complete idiot who believes his/her own line of unreasonable and irrational bullshit. Face it; the above line proves beyond a doubt that you're either retarded or pyscho (likely a combination of each...).

Hmm, would this happen to be the same 60 Minutes that was exposed after rigging the "investigation" in their "Audi Unintended-Acceleration Fiasco" exposé thirty years ago?

The above is utter bullshit.
That may well be true but none of the hot air you followed with even remotely backs-up your claim. Parent: 1; You: zilch
Or, you know, I had just woken up moments before and my eyes were too blurry with sleep to navigate the stupid-ass autocorrect on my phone... ;)
Oh, and for what it's worth: I am neither the stoner-type nor am I all that successful; I'm not sure what that implies... :)
If you read it without the "out now," it makes more sense... :)

God DAMN; mod the hell up!
Why would we drop 'em? Hand 'em out at a kiosk! ;)
Bring a knife to a gun fight...

Fuck off, Yahoo shill.
Could you perhaps burn-out the CCD's/CMOS sensors with a powerful-enough laser?
Clinton is the only credible candidate for POTUS.
Since you phrased it as a statement, it must surely be so.
or the battery being heated-up by some other device close to it
Like what, tubesteak smothered in underwear??
Cut 'em some slack - the phone would have featured a jack... but it was lost in the fire.
He's a dumb asshole, she's demonstrably evil and (once again) you're an idiot.
It gives me the best of both worlds, Windows robustness and stability and access to the myriad of applications that are only available for Linux.
Whoosh?
If you were married to a Reptilian with cankles, I bet you'd be straying off the path every now and then, too... ;)
That's a really desperate strawman attempt; this "debate" will be more interesting if you try harder... ;)
