My '63 Plywood Fury came with a windshield that was 63% more transparent than the previous year's model.. And you wouldn't believe how soft the new WondaWeave(TM) seat covers are. And it came with a brand new gladiator and two barrel carbon maker..
*sigh* Same bullshit argument comes up every time. The people who believe and act on hearsy are the idiots, and so are the people that stand up for them.
...everyone should be coming together to support the Rule of Law.
That will require a complete purge of the entire system and starting over. I'm game for that. Otherwise we're in for a bureaucracy that would make India blush, and maybe envious.
The concern isn't over the experience. It's over corruption of the political process. That is what this is. It is to protect industry interests.
I would wager that most people aim for positions in political office because they either know about, care for, or are passionate in some way about the seat for which they aim. (and yes, passion can come from being paid to care)
You would lose that wager. Most people who enter big time politics are narcissistic sociopaths. Those that aren't are pushed aside. That just the nature of the business.
Pay people for what they actually accomplish, instead of just for being there, and telecommuting looks a lot better.
That sounds a lot like basing the price of a product on its cost of production, as opposed to perceived (usually overrated) value to the customer. Which means it would never happen.
Dumb question... They want all of it. Even if they only wanted one acre, they went in, uninvited to take it. You're too high on the kool aid to waste any more time. Have a good one...
You''re only defending piracy, the real kind. Obviously you have something to gain, or indeed you are the one that's trolling. Judging by the tone of your 'voice', I'm going with the latter.
Keep up the good work. Not too long ago Hillary was just mentioning how sucky our propaganda machine is. Maybe you'll find an opportunity to help her out a bit.
The US is in Afghanistan for the plunder.. be it oil, pipes, women, whatever. It's no different than one gang of chimpanzees attacking another. The flowery language and 'morality' is pure BS
I'm gonna tell you a little story.. Back when I was in the business, it was Lockheed against McDonald Douglas. The Lockheed had terrible developmental problems (and Rolls Royce went bankrupt while designing the engine, who'd a thunk Rolls Royce of all people?) Anyway, the performance was very similar to the MD, a little short on range, corrected later on. However, MD is infamous for the safety of the DC-10.. Well, guess who sold over five times as many aircraft? You honestly think you're going to get me to believe the airlines give a damn? The DC-10 made money, lots and lots of money. Mechanically, the Lockheed was an impeccable, beautifully laid out, easy access to most components, very robust airplane. The MD is quite frail in comparison. And crawling around in places the passengers never see confirmed every suspicion I had. And amongst all of them, I still consider the L-1011 to be the best ever. That means nothing to the business. The MD, dangerous as it is, shows glowing returns on the spreadsheets. Maybe you ought to dig a little bit deeper than the business section of the newspapers. Numbers aren't everything. Some people are just very lucky. I don't give a shit about numbers. I care about sound design and engineering. And the Airbus is a laggard in that department, and the ones I've been on are very noisy and uncomfortable besides. I expected better from the 'teutonic' Europeans. What I actually picture in their boardrooms these days is a lot of bickering and the resulting slop. Part of the problem is the cultural problem from too many chefs. Everybody else worked as a single entity. The Airbus is glommed together from all sorts of different places. More like accretion than assembly. Check out the ridiculous process the 380 manufacture goes through. It's a mess. This is why the 787 is going nowhere. Boeing should stay with the tried and true methods that have proven themselves so well. Everybody here sees the Airbus from the Wall Street point of view. There it looks just fine. I look at it from the dirty, filthy mechanic's POV. And I can't paint a pretty picture from that. Eh.. whatever...
ouch! Luckily they still have an old fashion gyro, airspeed indicator, and an altimeter on board, and were as close to the airport as they were. Dodged another bullet...
...Boeing itself says that Airbus airplanes are just as safe as their own.
Ah yes, your most sane system is working so well. I guess this is what I can expect from people who live such soft lives, with mittens made out of mink..

They can't win anywhere
It's merely a direct quote. And is indeed quite true. Save it for somebody who gives a damn...
I hope no translation is necessary... But I'm sure you can Google it.
*sigh* Same bullshit argument comes up every time. The people who believe and act on hearsy are the idiots, and so are the people that stand up for them.
...they are sure to think that Google doesn't care.
And they shouldn't... Utter nonsense this is. But the idea of controlling speech still appeals to the world's idiots.
3.5 forté
forté? format? ?
Never mind me. I'm just trying to figure out what went wrong with your post. It didn't render, but I can't duplicate the problem in the reply..
Exactly... So there ya go... There will be no 'solution' forthcoming.
...everyone should be coming together to support the Rule of Law.

Well first off, you can forget about a peaceful solution. 'What can be done?' now becomes a little easier to answer.
Pay people for what they actually accomplish, instead of just for being there, and telecommuting looks a lot better.

...But when asked how much/many...

The reason we are there is not even human.

...you need some SOME sort of legal framework....intellectual property law is philosophically incoherent. it is your moral duty to ignore it
I like that... A true believer that slavery can be reformed.
I heard a better idea a long time ago, "Drop the bomb. Exterminate them all"

I think it's one of those ispo-fatso things.. after the fact?

Lawyers lawyers lawyers...
...I won't bother educating you anymore.
Let's see your license please..
And your excuse is...?
A mere navigational error... That all you got?
They involved pilot error, but the machine created a very difficult situation.
Drunk is the only thing to be when arguing with bullshit. A sober person would just say "fuck off". I'm trying to be nice here.
In ye olden days, it was the writers guilds that was the "RIAA" of the time. The printing press was a scroll "ripper".
