    ...the NRA exists neither to support your right to defend yourself nor a free internet (as they just soundly demonstrated); they're a well-known astroturfing organization; just as PETA's real role is to make animal lovers look like retarded psychos, the NRA's role is anything but what people think. Donate to the Gun Owners of America or Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership.

    Only if you count suicides but thanks for playing, subhuman shill.

  8. .. and cash register hardware

    Right, because the cutting-edge equipment needed to run a fully automated retail establishment is so much cheaper than ubiquitous, tried-and-true tech like fucking cash registers.

    That's infanticide, genius. "Genocide" has an actual meaning and no, you didn't nail it.

    Here in Colorado, lower-end Uber (UberX/XL/Select) are regulated by the Public Utilities Commission like limos while high-end Ubers (UberBlack/SUV are state-licensed limos.

    doing not even suspension of disbelief believable stuff in the first place.

    To be fair, DC's a lot worse about that than Marvel - with the exception of Batman:

    Barry Allen: What are your superpowers again?

    Bruce Wayne: I'm rich.

  18. OEM Windows keys won't activate a Retail copy of Windows

    As there is just generally one official, downloadable .iso for (for example) "Win8.1 Pro 64bit" or "Win7 Home 32bit" and they happily accept OEM keys, isn't that a moot point? (in fact, is it even correct at all?)
