Saying paypal has anything to do with this is like saying you like chocolate because your brothers, wifes, uncles dog does.
Whoah, it's like saying there's a dog that can eat chocolate without getting sick or dying. I know that's not the point you were trying to make; but it's important for people to understand this. Cue "the more you know" music...
Do a full skeleton. Most expensive Halloween lawn decoration ever? I guess my decision to simply imagine whipping up a convincing skeleton from junk I have lying around the yard and house was correct. LOL, I never follow through on any of those ideas. Last year I literally wrote "Boo" on a piece of cardboard and stuck it in a window near the door. That was my Halloween decoration. I'm that lazy and cheap when it comes to those things.
Interesting indeed. They condense the conspiracy mindset into "motivated skepticism". I have recently thought of it as "jumping the gun gone full tard". I think we all jump to conclusions or fill in the blanks sometimes. The conspiracist, IMHO, just takes normal gun-jumping and blank-filling to the extreme. They hold to the positions into which they've jumped, latch onto jumps made by others, and turn it into a whole new culture. I also can't believe that a certain amount of pride doesn't come in. Testosterone is a helluva drug. How many of these guys would rather run with a posse of moon-bats than admit they're wrong? Picture the Fonz on his motorcycle. "What? The Moon landing wasn't faked? You mean I was www---ww--w-w-wrrr....
Thanks. I probably should have linked it in my post. My memory of Animal House is fixed; but as more young people come online we have to be cognizant that they might not have seen it.
Slashdot is a game of politics and speed. It's speed-writing. Speed-editorializing. Screw-ups happen. It doesn't always play in my favor. Check out my recent history. I totally cratered doing that kind of thing with Apple. It's a game. It's entertainment. Sometimes it exceeds that, like that bit of poetry I wrote about getting a fix of freedom. Mostly though, like I said, it's speed-writing and sometimes you tag the wall.
Holy crap. First I've heard of Cortana. Googled it.. Is that for real??? It looks like Seven of Nine got fucked by Bob and this is the offspring. I can already see the protests from middle America. "Electronic boobies from Satan are sending us to Hell". How could anybody think that's a good idea?
OK, but what if they have a degree in English Lit and significant Open Source contributions relevant to the job? What if they have a CS degree but wrote stories for the student paper, and won an award for that?
So much work was done on both sides. They both have a talent pool. I've heard that "losers" often end up getting subcontracts from the "winners" for various subsystems, consulting, etc. Not sure if this will work with Boeing and SpaceX, but that's how it can work with the big MIC companies that were competing on a contract.
the libertarian solution would be to remove these blocks and open up the options.
We had such a situation at the turn of the 20th century. There were too many poles and wires. A more recent example is the fiber that was laid in the late 1990s. In some cities, each fiber company was allowed to lay its own fiber. This actually resulted in some streets being cut into just weeks after they were patched over from the previous fiber install.
Any sane solution to the Comcast problem requires a public infrastructure. The free market would work well re-selling service over that public infrastructure. That's what we're arguing about here anyway--free access to a public entity, namely the Internet. The irony of libertarians arguing for a pure free market on something that was created by the government never gets old.
I figured as much; but don't knock that. Talk to anybody who has wrecked the plastic on their sport motorcycle. If you could print that stuff at a reasonable price, that wold be HUGE.
There's no way a country that small, and that close to the US could hold out as a communist nation in the face of unrestricted trade with the US - it'd become so utterly dependent on the US that it'd simply have no choice but to bow down to US wishes and culture.
Have you been to Berkeley? Joking aside, the US is starting to have more trouble keeping its own states in line on issues like pot, gun control, immigration and even monetary policy. Living next door and trading DVDs is no guarantee that you will always get along.
Except for the battery, a street car was often an electric "bus". It drew the power from overhead lines. These were common until we were forced into automobiles by a combination of post-war cultural attitudes and downright bamboozling by the likes of GM.

Let me know when I don't have to give my phone number to YouTube. I became strictly a passive viewer when that happened.

I've almost given up on debunking conspiracy theories. Those who believe in them, BELIEVE in them. It's like trying to debunk somebody's religion.
When the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor, did Timothy give up? No!
Give a friend a coffee mug. Keep the red stapler for yourself.
followed by two decades of brutal guerilla warfare lead by crack teams of Canadian mercenaries
Well, there were wide spread reports of a Canadian on crack, so... almost.
Well, they know what this adds up to. Oh... no they don't.

From The Right Stuff:
Gordon Cooper: You boys know what makes this bird go up? FUNDING makes this bird go up.
Gus Grissom: He's right. No bucks, no Buck Rogers.
You might even say this opens windows into trade mark law.

Copper and silver have anti-microbial properties. This problem was solved centuries ago by pure dumb luck.
Drink some coffee, google around a bit, and get back to us.
I take it to mean 1/3.

They'd totally be into this... unless they've already done it and you're violating their patents. In that case, hide resume from Japan.

So yes. Switch back. There. FTFY.
