How did anyone impair his ability to say anything? Was he thrown in prison for what he said or his beliefs? No. He has the right to say and believe what he wants. Other people also have the same right. The right to say he is a bigot. An asshole. Unfortunately for him, bigots are not a protected class of people. So he lost his job. Because he is an asshole.
With all due respect, weigh stations are not used to deter smugglers. I have never had my freight inspected other than to ensure it was properly secured and complied with HazMat (hazardous materials) regulations, if applicable. Their purpose is to ensure compliance with federal and state regulations. Compliance is determined through inspections. Honestly, weigh stations are pointless. It is trivial to route around a fixed point.
The user moderation is a great feature but it is abused by some. A system to detect the users abusing moderation would be nice. If a user is found to be consistently violating the guidelines for moderation, said user should be ineligible to receive mod points for a set period of time.
Initially there were more than 100 regional cellular phone companies. How many are there today? Unless you are in some place like Wyoming they do not exist. Merger after merger left us with basically four shitty choices.
I love US grammar and spelling, don't you? It somewhat sets the tone for the view on Americans in general.
Let us put it this way, with a debt load of I believe 85% of your GDP it's only a matter of time. The US will default especially with given the political climate you are in now. No compromise, no new taxes, etc. Where do you think you will get the money to pay off the debt based off your GDP?
Face it, Gilligan and Cheney drove the US into the ground with the over spending. Now the recession they created only makes it work because the more you spend to get out of it the more you put yourselves in the hole. It sucks as nobody wants to see it happen but you can only go on for so long.
I love it when non-Americans denigrate the US while using American slang and alluding to American television.
It is already starting to bite them in the ass. In most third world countries the primary cause of death is infectious disease and in most developed countries it is heart disease. In China it is cancer.
The whole point of any software is to make something efficient and useful. Gnome 3 is anything but efficient. I used it for several weeks. I do not mind making minor changes to make something better suit my needs but the changes the Gnome team made were ridiculous. Rather than fork it, I did what most users do when a FOSS project makes changes they find unacceptable. I uninstalled Gnome and installed something else.
I do not think it is a false sense of privacy. My main concern with social networking is offending someone, either a friend or employer, with a post. Google+ makes it simple to segregate content.

And you convinced me. I was wrong.
I respectfully disagree. This is an environmental issue. It is an important one but I do not feel it belongs an a tech news aggregator.

Seriously. If I wanted to know about other people's political beliefs, I would be on Facebook.

I don't know what your problem is with tech in women. Because of this tech, I get to drink lots of scotch while a machine does my job.
Antibiotic resistant microbes predate modern human usage of antibiotics.

This is what happens to rogue competitors.
Ten dollars? I sold my soul for a bag of Cheetos.
Rockbox can be installed on several generations of iPod.
I would but I discovered this gesture 25 years ago. If some does file a patent for this gesture, I have proof of prior art.

Is that because because a blonde's head is usually closier to the lap belt?
