$2000 can either get you a desktop-replacement laptop which will die in a year or 2 (like you said), or you can get the business class machines that are built to run for 4 years with maybe just a battery replacement.
1) That $10/hour kid will support *maybe* 20 machine. The $50/hour admin will administer 1000. Take your pick
2) 90% of banking software on the front-end (tellers, etc) is accessed via a web browser. 90% of the backend stuff is already java or linux powered.
3) When you buy 1000 machines for a large business, you get a few for testing ahead of time no matter WHAT operating system you plan to run.
4) When a large business buys computers, they don't come with windows licenses. They buy blank machines and get a site license.
Rather close? There's an entire key and half between them and they are hit by different HANDS! I figured it out myself, but still, that's a rediculously unforgivable typo. Even Dvorak and Colemak have the same amount of room between them (though Dvorak uses the same hand, but different fingers).
Or carry a dead "friendly" combatant's chip in their pocket. If you think stealing a dead man's uniform is useful, wait until you can still their credentials and FFI with a pocket knife!
And why would a chip make identity management so much easier than existing DNA? If our DNA cannot be forcibly taken for recording into a national database, why should our "chip" be allowed to be?!?
If you are going to demand a citation, your rebuttal better damn well include one! I'm not saying I dissagree, but your arrogance is definitely showing.
Yeah, but they don't call that "speeding", they call it "reckless endangerment" or "driving without due care and attention". It's like calling spitting a crime because you could be spitting on a person (which is battery and possibly assault depending on the situation).
Except, we can get the American Discovery Channel just as easily and watch it right away. Just because ONE channel doesn't air right away, doesn't mean the entire show doesn't.
I'm just on the other side of the river from you and I feel your pain. This is *litterally* not only the first rain we've had since Tuesday, but we've barely even had a clowd in the sky. Today I can't even tell which *direction* the fucking sun is in!

I got an x220 a few months ago and can confirm that the optical drive is an option (one I declined).

Free-to-air is actually a government mandate. Trust me, if the government didn't force them to transmit them, none of the stations would.
So apparently it's easier to pull over Sam Roberts than it is to find an iPhone transmitting its location.

10,000,000,000 * 50Kb = 500,000,000,000 Kb = 488,281,250 Mb = 476,837 Gb = 465.66 Tb = 58.2 TB.
Not atsronomical, but still a hell of a lot more than 1TB...

Nope, just borrowing it for a few seconds.
Technically neither of those are crimes, they are traffic citations.
I just pictured the panda in a wrestling ring with a BSA enforcer's head in its mouth!
When you have a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.
When you have lawyers on staff, every problem looks like a wambulance.
FTFY
butbutbut, Canada's on the US Piracy List, how could we possible have a low piracy rate?!?

In canada, unless you need low latency, the internet is about the most expensive method you could possibly use to transfer data. source
Well, mathematically you would actually have a negative bandwidth.
Check out "redshift". I find it works wonders when working in low light, so it may have a positive effect for light-sensitive users as well.
accessibility -> text size -> large.
Was that really so hard?!?
No, he's made part of his username into a fake uid to make it look like he's been here longer. (hint: the second one is his uid).
I live in Canada and most of our TV channels are actually American channels. Which shows were unavailable up here for 18 months..?
