If.0001 gram of cocaine would be enough for them to seize your property every cop car will be kitted out well enough to make CSI look like outdated and quaint.
We could do things like enforcing the rules but most teachers or schools can't afford the lawyers to fend off the parents who just know that Johnny is a special little angel who'd never do anything wrong and that he's above average so he obviously shouldn't get any grade less than an A+.
Hmm, given that we're supposed to want renewable energy so that we don't have to send oil money to foreign countries, shouldn't the gov't be supporting local (US) drug operations so all that drug money doesn't leave the country?
Actually if you want to see evil, go find a baby. Absolutely self-centered with no concern given to those around them.
Unfortunately it takes a baby 20 years or more to become a human being (and the process of creating a human from a homo sapiens is one that we are constantly losing knowledge of).
Sadly humans in general haven't overcome the ancient and outdated biological imperative and still think of babies as unconditionally 'good' things.
Even though a UO PK could loot all of your equipment it didn't mean much more than having to spend the time to recall over to your favorite player vendor and buying a nicely packaged set of standard gear.
You generally weren't losing things that took a raid of 40 people 5 months to acquire. (Yes, that's right, you could actually *do* stuff in bog-standard cheap gear.)
Evocare/Kalgan, Destroyer of MMOs, Bringer of The Grind, Lord of Monotony, Prince of the Purple was the downfall of UO. After his arrival you had to go grind for gear (and for the money to pay for the insurance on the gear) in a very diablo-esque manner. And then Blizzard hired him.../sigh
EQ and WoW were hardcore games. With those games you *NEEDED* 40-80 people to gather together for a part (or full) time job that only pays with the occasional loot drop (and may $deity have mercy on you if you weren't a tank or a healer). In UO you could be the lonely woodsman who makes his own bows and arrows to hunt the animals he skins and cooks.
Wouldn't Intelligent Design course materials have to existed from the beginning of the Earth and not have changed over the six thousand years of its existence (with any previous editions that are found being obvious fakes placed by Satan to confuse and deceive)?
Instead of focusing on hiding *LEGAL* activities perhaps some effort should be directed towards making sure that our rights to be free of unwarranted search and seizure, to be secure in our person and our documents and most importantly the rights to not being required to incriminate ourselves are not so easily and casually violated.
Unfortunately the only way to ever truly and safely encrypt something is to not store that information at all. "Never write when you can talk, never talk when you can nod, and never, ever, put anything in an email."
"Sweden health care system: excellent US Health care system: Excellent if you are rich. Add $200/month (my plan with $500 deductible, which is ridiculous that I still have to pay the first $500 and also doctor visits) or more for medical plan. That's $2500/year. Pretend that it's coming out of your paycheck as part of your taxes and see how much higher your tax percentage goes)"
I've tried (and continually failed) to make this point to my co-workers.
Apparently it is totally different when you have to pay a set amount out of each paycheck for your insurance then if you had to pay a set amount out of each paycheck for "health care tax".
"Oh!" They cry, "But if the government provides healthcare our taxes will go up!" And then the puzzled look when you ask "So what do you call your insurance payments? You have to pay, it comes out of your paycheck and that money goes to a corporation which wants to keep you just alive enough to keep paying them but only until you cost them money, then you'll be dead and or broke."
I know people that basically work solely for the (usually family) health insurance. They wouldn't get enough to live off of just from that job but they can't afford the COBRA payments if they lose the job.
If typing in "files" or "sharing" or even "photos" in the search bar constitutes "slavishly searching the App store" I'd like to know what typing out that whole post is called.
Nevermind that you had a month to get things up to speed before you went on your trip. So I guess you are totally justified in blaming Apple for your frustrations.
He seemed rather blissful in his ignorance. Stop trying to harsh his ill-informed vibe.
You'd have to intentionally not look at all for any solutions to not have run across something like Air Sharing or Easy Share. A quick search on the app store would have turned something up.
This may not be true in this particular case, but I really love it when people go on and on about the dangers of smoking while they themselves live in smog filled cities.
"That's not what Apple thought, they are just allowing you to use it, as long as you give them money and don't use it in any way that they disapprove of."... if you want to make a warranty claim.

Being well fed isn't just a matter of how many calories you take in...
Perhaps it is simple in the UK but bank transfers aren't a common (or cheap, for the costumer anyways) way of doing business in the US.
A good example of the payment culture clash was the open pandora.
Or you take out the point where the towers feed back into the wired infrastructure.
Until we find out that someone has parked No-ships in the cloud...
Well, catch A criminal. If it happens to be THE criminal, even better.

I prefer "never attribute to stupidity something that can profit from malice".

Oh, I see, this isn't about an Apple product. Carry on then.

Can we give Texas back (no backsies) to Mexico now?
We could split one of the square states into a North X and South X so we don't have to change the flag.

Try getting him to drink unsweetened coffee. Sugar can lessen the effects of the caffeine.
Light roasts have a higher caffeine content than dark roasts and would probably be more palatable for someone new to coffee.

Lung, kettle, black.
Apple is the new Microsoft for what's in fashion this season to bash on /. .

Perhaps this is why netbooks keep increasing in size... Not enough room for "branding" the screen with useless ui components.
Explosive decompression isn't explosive and a couple of bullet holes aren't going to cause a dangerous drop in cabin pressure.
Err, sorry, what I meant was FEAR!!! FEAR FEAR FEAR!!!!!!1!.
