Hmmm, maybe, but to me he's putting a qualifier on it being ok rather than out of the box.
If I was being really pedantic I'd point out you said first sentence... second sentence... when he clearly only used one sentence total and point out the irony in you using the same format for your post;)
Now you mention it, pedantry does sound a bit too close to peasantry for my taste, maybe there's a word that means the same but sounds like badass or something lol
Don't get me wrong. I agree for the most part win 8 is a bag of shit regardless, but op says there's nothing wrong with it AS LONG AS you do whatever, so if you haven't done that there is (in his opinion) something wrong with it.
If anyone is interesting in actually reading what Microsoft says about this, they'll see it is an entirely optional addition that the user has to turn on and agree to.
If you don't want Cortana reading your Skype messages, then don't switch the option to tell Cortana to read your Skype messages. What's difficult to understand about that?
Because they're totally trust worthy. If you think turning it off will turn off anything but the visible benefits to you then you're naive. Cortana is all up in your shit whether you like it or not.
Apart from it doesn't seem to like mkv files which everyone seems to be using these days. I've actually got the situation that wmp will play some files vlc wont. Regardless of if someone considers it useful just flat out removing it in an update is a poor show. What's next, take out the calculator? date and time display?
It literally says a well regulated militia, That might have been clear way back when but today it means nothing. Even if you argue Joe Public is militia he's definitely not well regulated. The bolded part is part of a sentence and as much as you don't like it follows on from the first part. If they were separate statements, that would be incredibly clear and you would be correct, as they are not the two things are related and the people in mention are the people in the previously mentioned well regulated militia. Amend it to define well regulated militia in relevant terms of today or put on two lines.
What the fuck are you rambling about? What I'm saying is the National Guard are a well regulated militia where as every Tom, Dick and Harry are not. There may be some technical definition that any American that could serve in military is militia but as far as I can tell that doesn't affect the sales of guns really. Also, it's the second amendment, what's to say it can't be, you know, amended to be a bit more clear and say that or say it is the right of every American...? Just admit you have a boner for guns, there's nothing more to it or you wouldn't hide behind some vague statement with your fingers in your ears and move on.
The only reason I use it is I'm stuck with a windows phone and it's basically the only option. It's a massive power hog too. Just in the past 6 hours it's used 31% of the battery, even though I'm at work and only really used it over lunch. That includes 9% in background even though the option that very clearly says never allowed in background is checked.
What's happening now doesn't fit with it's purpose either but there you go. There are no more injuns to defend from and the federal government just flat out cannot be kept in check by an armed populace unless the intention is for battle with government which just no.

So yes, battling with the government was indeed one of the things that the original founders deemed not only appropriate but necessary.
I always took that to mean battling foreign powers that might want to take your freedom/land (in much the same way America came to be in the first place but anyway) like the nazis etc. Otherwise you can basically just say the door is open for anyone to shoot the government for being tyrants and basically every president you've had would fall under that in one way or another depending who you ask. If it's encoded that the populace is allowed to rise up with deadly force, who decides when that's going to happen, obviously not the government, can anyone take it upon themselves or do they need to arrange a well regulated militia first? I can't see the federal government doing anything but coming down on that like a ton of bricks really, can you? I also can't really see anyone getting away with shooting Trump (or whoever) and then saying it's in the constitution. Can you, or anyone, say what it actually means? Obviously not otherwise you still wouldn't be arguing over it while scores of people lay dead just waiting for the next massacre.
I just wish that America, as a country had the balls to stand up and say "yeah we like the guns too much and the massacres are worth it" instead of hiding behind an intentionally vague statement written a long time ago pretending there's nothing can be done. They seem to think this amendment is set in stone while ignoring what amendment means, fucking amend it. As a country, you really need to take stock and grow the fuck up.
Just my 2 cents, but it says for the security of the state, not the country. The idea being to keep the federal government in check, not the protection of the country as a whole.
While I agree that your idea would work, I don't think it fits with the 2nd amendments intended purpose.

I like how the "9-5" job standard is actually "8-5" now.
A few decades ago it really was 9-5. And on that a regular Joe could afford a house, a car or two, a spouse who stayed at home, 2-3 kids, a dog, and retirement.
8-5? more like 7-5 here.
Mine's 8.30-5 but on fridays it's 9-4 so thats nice.

How many militia are there, well regulated or not?
Moving on, "being necessary to the security of a free State". Does buying a gun come with the duty to protect the security of your state as part of a well regulated militia?
Who does that remind me of? Oh yeah, the national fucking guard not any nutjob with a couple hundred dollars to sparre.

Not "the machine", you idiot paid shill.
How does one get one of these paid shill jobs? It sounds ideal.

There's nothing wrong with Windows 8, as long as you install ClassicShell and disable all the Metro crap.
Windows user tells us there's nothing wrong with Windows 8, then in the next sentence tells us what's wrong in Windows 8.

What lies did I tell? I asked three questions and made an observation. There was no scope for truth or lies in my entire post.
I'm increasingly tired of people just making shit up.

So let me get this straight, they've already lost a lot of non-Netflix created content, will lose Disney in 2019, and now they're raising the price?
They're just prepping you for once they finally get rid of net neutrality.

That a lot of people seem to have a rather unhealthy obsession with the guy?

I'm no more productive with 8 hours of sleep than I am with 6.
Just productive enough to not get fired.
May I also discuss birth control and responsibility?
I'll drop in at the end when you discuss time travel.
So dying with 30-35 is perfectly fine
Not at all. It's very beneficial for a tribe to have elders with experience.
Elder is a relative term.
