Eumenorrhea denotes normal, regular menstruation that lasts for a few days (usually 3 to 5 days, but anywhere from 2 to 7 days is considered normal).[2] The average blood loss during menstruation is 35 millilitres with 10-80 mL considered normal;[3] many women also notice shedding of the endometrium lining that appears as tissue mixed with the blood. (Sometimes this is erroneously thought to indicate an early-term miscarriage of an embryo.) An enzyme called plasmin â" contained in the endometrium â" tends to inhibit the blood from clotting. Because of this blood loss, premenopausal women have higher dietary requirements for iron to prevent iron deficiency. Many women experience uterine cramps, also referred to as dysmenorrhea, during this time, caused largely by the contractions of the uterine muscle as it expels the endometrial blood from the woman's body. A vast industry has grown to provide drugs to aid in these cramps, as well as sanitary products to help manage menses.

You never think about the people you're ripping off--the musicians, software developers, screenwriters, and so on.
Horse-carriages and automobiles my friend.
Musicians: If I can't copy their music, then neither can they. Do gigs and performances like real musicians do. There's no law that says you, as a musician, are entitled to income. It's an art, if your art sucks, if people don't like you enough to buy your cd's, you don't get paid, and you don't get to whine about it.
Software-developers: You produce tools that people use to create value. Tools that can be magically copied with no effort. If you want to make money on it, do it by implementing the tools you have created (being the creator gives you a fair head-start in this). Would you have a problem giving away hammers to people for free if you could replicate an original (which you made yourself) ad infinitum?
Screenwriters: Adjust your expectations. Just because your output-volume has risened does not mean the individuals demand will too. In every other field people know what they're buying before they buy it. Don't jump at people for wanting to know whether your work is quality or insipid trash before they decide to buy (or not buy) your product. A recent survey has shown that people who pirate movies are ten times more likely to buy movies than people who don't pirate. Don't whine if you fail.
Meh...fair enough criticism...however, it wont get any better if people like you (not offensively meant ofc) keep supporting the creators in their belief that "making our next game Windows-only is enough because they'll all buy it anyway".
If I can't run it, how the hell am I supposed to get my wife, kids, or parents on it? Yeah, thats a loaded question, and in actuality my kids PC is Fedora 10. I still have to continually answer the "why do you use Windows" style questions from them.
Let me guess, you feel like you did a bad thing after you've answered your kid, right?
That is what it means to be a judge; with special powers, including possibly the power of life and death, comes special responsibility above and beyond what would be expected from the average citizen.
Spider-judge, spider-judge, does whatever Spider-judge can...
Where I work (the public sector) users need "training" even when they swap from one Windows XP machine to another, simply because it looks strange and different and their icons are gone.
"Training" here means : "To access the program you need in order to do you work you click here and here".
Switching from WinXP to Win7 would constitute a jump in familiarity for them as big as switching from WinXP to Linux.
...we got white Tibet, black Tibet, spanish Tibet, yellow Tibet, we got hot Tibet, cold Tibet, we got (snuuuf) smelly Tibet, hairy Tibet, bloody Tibet, we got snappin' Tibet. We even got horse Tibet, dog Tibet...CHICKEN Tibet, c'mon you want Tibet, ? C'mon in Tibet-lovers, if we don't got you don't want it....
High taxes do not give rise to cheap internet. The United States has exposed its citizens impossibly high obligations, way beyond what Sweden or virtually any other country does, but internet in the U.S. can be described as backwards in price and quality compared to other countries. Following David Lande's hypothesis, I'd say the reason Sweden has cheap, fast internet and the United States does not is culture: Sweden has educated people who elect a progressive government that spends money with accountability and forward-thinking reason; the United States has something different.
True. For some reason, every time there's an election in the US, it seems like well over half of the population is standing on the timeline looking back at a black book and a piece paper called "declaration of independce", instead of looking in the opposite direction.

I'm sorry, time-travel has post-poned the discovery of itself until Microsoft is no more.
Which means that the year of the Linux-desktop coalesce with the discovery of time-travel.
Screw the crash-tests, no american would want a car that weighs less than the owner of the car.

It will never pass, when did you last get taken seriously while in possession of a corona?
...don't cast pearls before swine like that.

If you wanna invade Denmark anytime soon you'd be most welcome ;)
You're assuming the consequent as a premise. You're basically saying IF there is a black Einstein, THEN black Einsteins must exist.
I got one of those japanese droids last week. All it did was keep saying "chii", piece of trash...

Meh, on the other hand, one Apple is enough...

It does make one bad at grammar though...
Windows Genuine Advantage?
Or you could use these stats [w3schools.com], which show 4% from browsing OSes.
Interesting thing here not being linux having 4%, but that linux-usage doubled since 2003.

(Edvard Munch's "The Scream" would be a fitting reaction)
Fuck that, does my family get the computers I fix for other people after I die? No.
If they want their content to stay in the family so badly they should just not publish it in the first place.
For some things, there's wishing. For others, there's a .40 caliber hangun.
Yeah, but in lieu of the story you now need a handgun AND a timemachine.

No QuickBook. No TurboTax.
Huh?
No iTunes.
Dude, you buy music?.....dude....
Lack of games.
