Bullshit. It's a private office with no distractions.
More screen is nice, but what goes on inside skulls is more important for productivity.
British phone service used to be run by the Royal Mail. It got split out as British Telecom in 1980 and then it got sold off by the government in 1984.
Until now, all known high temperature superconductors have been ceramic mixes of materials such as copper, oxygen lithium, and so on, in which physicists do not yet understand how superconductivity works.
They can see it works but yet they cannot understand it. Now why should I believe them when they say ghosts don't exists even though my grandma totally swears that she saw one about a month ago?
You should test it for yourself. See if you can make a superconducting magnet with your grandmother's ghosts.
TV shows. In particular a program on drug manufacture and all of of the production lines shown were in places like Pakistan and India, supplying the big pharma companies who supply worldwide. I don't think there's a 'gold standard' drug manufacturing industry based in the USA just to keep the idiot patriots happy.
Yeah, you know, they are "by and large" indistinguishable from the real ones. I mean, what's a few PPM of arsenic, or cyanide, or lead? The rest of the drug is still there, and that's what you ordered. You wouldn't send a gourmet steak back just because the cook brushed a little olive oil and salt on it, when it was listed on the menu as just a steak? So why are we rejecting these drugs?

What makes you think the 'official' drugs are made in different factories than the 'unofficial' drugs? Everything I've seen suggests the pharma companies source this stuff from the same places. The FDA process is a labeling process.
CAD tool vendors liked dongles back in the days that PCs has parallel ports. OrCad for instance.
It didn't take long before customers started telling them to quit with the dongles or they would shop elsewhere. And so the rise of FlexLM and spoofed MAC addresses.
Seriously, how can a billion dollar company that does tons of computer stuff not have a near-impregnable website?
Big corporations employ people who understand security and they certainly do do some things securely.
However, they do not like the consequences of ensuring security in customer facing things like web sites. Getting in depth security review of each change gets right in the way of making rapid updates. This is understood. It is not just incompetents haphazardly creating security holes with no one paying attention. It is a case that it was decided to favour speed over security.
Sony seems to have failed in protecting things they should have protected, such as employee data. The web site stuff is just a risk they chose to take. Leaving employee data vulnerable is inexcusable.
Well not me. I've never spent that much on a car, even though I could if I chose to. I don't need to have that much invested in a car. I have better things to spend that money on.

What happens inside, I'm not allowed to say.
OH! That's why the band, NAZIs For Love, insist on solid state amps!
Harsh words. Harsh tone.
Agreed. I just stock up when I visit San Francisco.
I demand additional ineffective security procedures for my Nespresso machine. I'm completely ineffectively unprotected.
After all, the transistor was invented by William Shockley, a proponent of Eugenics.
Yes. That's why guitarists use tube amps.

They got it wrong. The dry comets are lighter and so are still flying around. The wet ones were heavier and so fell to Earth.

I think that explains it.
If they could, it might have to be smaller than the printer that printed it.
Wait. What?

Why does a postal service think it can make money off of 3D printed stuff better than others ? Sounds very desperate.
The Royal Mail is still upset about losing the phone service. This is their way of fighting back.
It is very important to understand that this is a flaw in some vendors' TLS implementation, NOT in the tls protocol itself.
The protocol invites this sort of implementation error. Hence proposals like this: http://clearcrypt.org/tls/
I can't wait to see what they come up with to add DRM to the shape of things so you can't copy them in a 3D scanner/printer.
They can see it works but yet they cannot understand it. Now why should I believe them when they say ghosts don't exists even though my grandma totally swears that she saw one about a month ago?

Maybe it's the 'Intelligence' part that's wrong, thus explaining the other two problems.

Isn't a court supposed to rule on the current law, rather than extending laws that have gone away?
They aren't a court.
Sorry, I misinterpreted the word "court" to mean "court" in "Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court"

>industrywide switch from HD DVD to Blu-ray Disc
Do people still use blu-ray media? I thought it got lost in the negative gap between DVD and getting stuff over the internet.
Blocking ads is fine. Blocking ads unless the publisher pays you for an exemption is extortion and not what I, as an ABP user, want.
I don't mind ads if they are well behaved, static content. It sounds like they are ensuring that they are exactly that.

I took a hike out to the monorail once. My feet hurt. It was a long walk from the strip.
