Did the Uber driver also investigate what it was about this girl's life that led her to prostitute herself in the first place and remove those conditions so that she won't just turn around and do the same thing next week? Did the Uber driver pay for some sort of counseling? If not, then this is just a feel good story that really means very little, sad as it is.
It's not fake news, it's just the death of any media outlet that game a damn about checking facts, as well as the death of people who cared to go out of their way for a media outlet that did so. There used to be a thing called journalistic integrity but it comes at a cost and no one wants to pay. The biggest problem is, it was doing a lot to hold back the days of Idiocracy. Sadly, those days are now well upon us.
So I was unable to test the laptop how I wanted to, because there is no way to keep it 'awake' while on battery if not using it. This morning I used it on battery and it lasted 3.5 hours, which is not as bad as I thought but obviously a great deal less then ten. So are you saying Apple will replace my battery?

I'll see if I can find the time to test the laptop. I guess I could let it sit overnight and have a script echoing a timestamp to a log file to detect when it actually dies. I was just noticing the other day that I was going from unplugged when a show started to 20% by the end of the show. I'm not sure if it is still happening or what. If it is a temporary condition then it might take a lot of experimentation and leaving overnight to nail down the issue and recreate it.
Stop comparing iPhones to luxury cars, seriously. When you buy a mercedes benz, you can still drive outside the walled garden. iPhones are a tradeoff, not a luxury device.
How so? According to many commenters who have seen the video the car was just in the right place at the right time and didn't do anything a human wouldn't.
But this isn't just someone who has remembered a past comment, this is a person who took the time out of his day to seek out another one of my comments just so that he/she could respond. As a person who values his time, I an honored.
If I call Apple and tell them I want my battery replaced because it's not lasting 9 hours they're going to replace it until it does? Really? Anyway I have Applecare so I have three years.
Listen, enough of the pissyness because I don't want to spend my time doing what you want me to do. Maybe I watched TV and posted on Slashdot all morning, but I know what I need to get done but I will have to push. The only thing that matters to you is that I would rather do something else with my time. I rebooted recently and I'm not even sure if the problem is still happening. The thing that I didn't have time for is testing with different software. And, as I am sitting down here, for work, to get my shit done, this post was worth it but nothing more.
I didn't close my laptop backpack and my T430 fell out of it in a mall onto a hard tile floor. It bounced several times. No damage whatsoever, not even a chip. Compare that to a macbook, I dropped the same laptop on one from half a height once and it actually dented the keyboard surface of the case. I can't imagine what a drop from that height would do to a macbook. It certainly wouldn't look the same.
I think the issue is that the licensing on the proprietary software would restrict what they could do with their own software and expose them to crippling legal costs. It's not as simple as 'they don't want anything to do with proprietary software'.

Still, if you have to spend most of your money on a house it's not worth it. Long hours, two working parents, kind of makes for a sucky life.
..and people still move there? Nothing like moving for a hot salary and then having it killed by a house.
But no more than most Android phones. Yes I can accept 'a smartphone' as a luxury device.
Why do you say that, because they cost more?

My worst fear is that I'll have to choose between a headphone port and a stylus for my next phone.

Lack of regulation is where real corruption happens.

The thing is, they can't fix my laptop in shop where I am so then I'm waiting for three weeks without a laptop.

Oh my god I have a stalker. I never thought this would happen in a million years. I take it as an absolute complement sir.
So you can still dual boot linux?
But it still nags you all the time.
You don't need a touchpad when it has touchpoint. Much more accurate and no need to take your hands away from the keyboard.

Is it really a good idea to have a private corporation control your bios?
