They don't have to pay it at all. just disconnect from the grid. Who cares how much it costs they have solar panels. They can pay the $X ammount to the power company or buy batteries or sit in the dark. The choice is theirs. Why should they get a free ride using a service that others are paying for?
We're NASA, our funding is dropping, no more cold war, we no longer have a space shuttle to steam funds to us for, so GLOBAL WARMING!!!!! give us money.
He didn't rob from anybody, He exchanged value for value.
The only transactions that are not a net win are when one is at the point of a gun. Bill Gates never pointed a gun at anyone.
He didn't hold back anything. Industry flourished during the biggest part of the Microsoft heyday 90s and 00s.
If there was no value in Microsoft products then people wouldn't buy them. Period. That was the choice I made in Dec of 1998. My Windows 98 box died (was probably a hard drive crash as I replaced it anyway) At that point I had played some with Linux and decided that it was what I wanted moving forward. That year, 1999, was my "Year of the Linux desktop"
Of course someone who made a lot of money helping a lot of other people make a lot of money helping millions of people have jobs to do. While pissing off the largest portion of the readership here due to quality of the product. I'm pretty sure this isn't going to get a fair shake here on Slashdot.
I'm sure you can, but why don't you then? Part of a free market or even capitalist society is that you can do those things. The better the ideas are the more people you can help with employment or providing goods and services to them.
Of course if your ideas suck then you go under and don't get to continue getting funding for things that are not sustainable, useless, outdated or all of the above.
I've read posts like this for nearly 15 years. I'm still not quite sure I understand them. There has always been crap articles or ones I don't care about. Still the signal to noise ratio is better here than most other sites. I'll be sticking around for a while I'm sure.
Unless it drives away your customers. What good is gouging people High prices on swapping out their good, but low battery when they could either charge it elsewhere or go to a different shop and swap it for a fair market price.
The right wants to use it to show the left is incompetent. The left seems to be using it to try to prove they don't blindly follow everything the president does and are blaming it all on him.
If I compare the number of car crashes nightly across the entire city and compare them to just my personal computer crashes with Windows then I'd say humans are way better off.
except that's just not how it works. I swap kegs in my kegorator all the time. I paid the initial deposit and haven't been charged since, except for the contents of the new kegs.

There has been no warming for the last 17 years. But this study says that's off by half and warming could be double none.

"obesity is a growing problem"
I see what you did there.

I've found it to be faster than running Linux directly on hardware under certain circumstances.
Just look at all the failures that show up in a google search https://www.google.com/search?q=trailer+hitch+ball+weld+failure&client=firefox-a&hs=OeR&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=RHWAUoGBPcasigLp9YDADw&ved=0CAkQ_AUoAQ&biw=1344&bih=776

because it's nearly impossible to keep the cool.

Those are the only ones I care about. If it's a Knee-jerk response in a way I favor, why the fuck would I make anything out of it?
You mean all the places that have a sign that says, "This place is under video surveillance."
That'd be kind of amusing actually.

What you describe is health insurance. Health care is something different.
Funny, I've been without health insurance and still was able to purchase healthcare. It was actually quite a bit cheaper than buying insurance.

Fortunately a for-profit company can only do what the market will bear. Only the government can force you to buy something you don't want.

That's what private enterprise is for.
Windows is fine if you don't read emails or browse the web.
I'd guess I wouldn't get the one they took from me back and I'd have to keep this new/old/different one.
