Just realign the flux capacitor, adjust the Heisenberg compensators, reverse the polarity, and whatever you do NEVER cross the streams and Voyager should be just fine. Really, it's that simple.
So I give the pictures to a buddy and HE posts them. Problem solved. Since the pictures were sent to me they are my property to do with as I see fit, and that means I can give them to someone else. What THEY do with it after that is not my concern, and if they were never romantically involved with the person, oh well.
Yeah, real iron-clad law they hammered out here. Lotsa thought went into this one.
I've been saying this for years and years that console manufacturers should move to a semi-closed upgradeable PC-based platform and away from proprietary systems that are hopelessly outdated and not upgradeable. And now we have it, courtesy of Valve and Steam. Whether or not it replaces consoles will depend upon publishers and game developers porting to the new system, and I fully expect Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo to play dirty pool to try and make that not happen. Time will tell.
It *IS* the future, but as we all know sometimes the old dogs need to be dragged into it, kicking and screaming.
There is NO phone suitable for a child of that age. Buy him toys. If you really must be able to video chat or talk to him (for example, if you're away on business or the non-custodial parent) buy a cheap android tablet with a front-facing camera that can be given to his caregiver (mother, nanny, etc.) and you can Skype with him at pre-set appropriate times.
The problem is two-fold: one, he is far too young to understand the magnitude of the technology you want to give him and will not understand it's not a toy, and two, he's far too young to understand the notion of self-control. What if he wants to chat with daddy in the middle of pre-school, or daycare, or some other inappropriate time that he's not capable of understanding is inappropriate? This will only lead to distress and separation anxiety (or a worsening of any SA he might already have).
Seriously, just don't go there. I understand your desire, but it's a REALLY BAD idea.
That music is brought back to the people. The fact you don't need a label and $250K to make an album is a GOOD thing for humanity. While yeah, it sucks for the labels, but y'know what, too fucking bad. The mainstream music industry has been producing nothing but shit for more than 20 years. They only have themselves to blame for their losses. Their little house of cards is finally falling, and music is finally starting to return to where it belongs.
I'm not suggesting they're stupid (uneducated perhaps, but not stupid). I'm suggesting the idea of giving them rice that's genetically modified to be rich in vitamin A is stupid, because there are plenty of fruits and vegetables that can be grown that naturally contain vitamin A (along with a full range of other beneficial nutrients not found in GMO golden rice), and that perhaps it would be a more wise and prosperous investment having them grow their own foods instead of relying upon handouts from us. Oh wait, but how will we promote ourselves and profit from it that way???
But com'n, the reality is that these are poor starving kids in Africa, so fuck it, let's give them whatever crap we can come up with and turn a few bucks while we're at it. I mean, it's not like anyone really cares about these people anyway, amirite? One Israeli or Palestinian dies and everyone screams bloody murder. Millions of African children die every year and no gives a shit. We blather on and on about the genocide in Syria, but no one has ever given a fuck about the genocide in Africa that's been going on for the better part of a decade. Oh yeah, that's right, no oil or Jews in those parts of Africa.
So let's just stop pretending this all about doing something good for people in need. Cause that ghost ship sailed a LONG time ago.
Give your kid a goddamn carrot. Problem solved. Nooo, let's instead genetically modify rice to contain a vitamin already present in over a dozen common foods. What could possibly go wrong when we manipulate the genetic code of our food and stuff our kids with it?
Either way, it's misleading and/or false advertising. If one buys a pass to season 5 one expects to get all the episodes of season 5, not find out halfway thru that their season 5 pass was really just the first half of season 5 and that they now have to pay again for the second half of the season. That's fraud. It's one thing if it's done and made crystal clear what you're getting prior to purchase. It's another if they tell you you're getting one thing and then deliver half and demand another payment for the other half.
But they are the ones that run the store. They claim they have no power, that's it up to the producers, but of course that's complete bullshit. Apple has, and has always maintained full control over iTunes and the app store with an iron fist. Apple says "jump", and producers and developers say "how high?" If they tell the producers, "no, you must include the second 8 episodes as part of the existing season because we sold our customers passes to all of season 5, not just the first half" do you really think they would say no and risk being booted off iTunes? I don't think so.
Someone in the legislature has ties and is getting kickbacks from the company that makes the technology, so they have a huge financial incentive to push thru this blatantly-invasive technology that will ultimately cost the taxpayers millions of dollars and provide virtually zero benefit.
But iCrap devices now come in all different screen sizes, aspect ratios, and resolutions, with an array of different versions of iOS amongst them. So clearly someone is either talking out their ass or has taken a large donation from some guy named T. Cook.
Do you really think you're going to get the full story on a Discovery channel program? What they call "orange juice" is stripped, distilled, warehoused for months, and then has orange essence added back in to replace all the flavor they stripped out. It's nasty.
Or maybe not charge a ridiculous amount of money for a proprietary charger so people wouldn't be forced into buying a much less expensive 3rd party one? Nah... why do that?
And you'll be better off in the long run if you don't try. Price your online edition accordingly and provide a great product and people will buy it. Focus on them, as they are your customers, and forget about all the others. Continuing to see pirated copies as a loss of income is not only counterproductive and futile, but grossly inaccurate.
Last I checked iCrap and Android devices aren't consoles (and yes, that includes the redheaded bastard child called Ouya). Or did you miss the "(especially in the console arena)" part? And these types of games were *never* available on disc to begin with, so how could they return to a medium on which they never once existed? Next time put your brain in drive and your mouth in park, not the other way around.

Drug and medical supply companies make far too much money from diabetes. There is no way in hell they're ever going to allow researchers to cure it.

No way this could ever possibly go wrong...

It should surprise me that a politician doesn't understand the difference between criminal and civil offenses, but honestly, it doesn't.

So if it's an x86 platform what's to stop people from putting Windows on these things?
How do they cook rice without water?

Then give them seeds and teach them how to grow them. Do they have dirt? Water? Sunlight?

You mean the needs of the many really do outweigh the needs of the few, or the one? You don't fucking say...
NEVER. GOING. TO. HAPPEN.

Once you understand how commercial orange juice is made I guarantee you'll never want to drink it again.
Of course they are. This woman's death is a golden opportunity they most assuredly won't let slip by.
Or maybe not charge a ridiculous amount of money for a proprietary charger so people wouldn't be forced into buying a much less expensive 3rd party one? Nah... why do that?
