The last tine we physically put a human on another piece of rock was when exactly?
By we I assume you mean America, and the last time the US put someone on another piece of rock was the last time that someone was on another piece of rock.
If you really want to know exactly, it was December 14, 1972, 22:54:37 UTC.
There was a recent study that showed MOST models of vaporizers still burn the nicotine oil to "vaporize" it. So you're still releasing most the same exact carcinogens, plus you're inhaling burning baby oil. Maybe this is not so safe after all. (Don't ask for a citation. It was posted here on/., find it yourself.)
You do realise alot of the bad stuff is added to the tobacco or is in the paper for various reason. It's not just the nicotine which is relatively harmless on its own.
There have been studies for years that have proven that smoking kills. They have been called "cancer sticks" for decades. But regardless of the fact that people know that smoking kills people just keep on smoking and burning their money away.
You can't cure stupid.
This is why smoking should be illegal. It has no legitimate redeeming value, while causing massive costs due to health care, human losses, reduced quality of life, and a multitude of other problems. Furthermore, smokers should never be allowed to smoke around non-smokers without clear and direct consent. You don't have the right to cause me to develop cancer just because you have a disgusting habit. Any smoker who lights up around non-smokers without consent should be shot on the spot.
How about fuck off. There is one place you have control over the environment and other people and that's your home. If you don't like perfectly legal actions others are taking in public then you are totally free to fuck off back there and never come back out. You won't be missed and the rest of the grown ups can get on with their lives.
It's harder to just get on with shit when your so occupied with what colour every fucker is. Give it a rest already. Racism hasn't even a chance of going away while you're all on about black this, white that, brown, yellow, red and all the rest of it (apparently only black and white are the ones worth a damn though). Same with gender. Is white cop shoots innocent black person any worse than black cop shoots innocent white person and are either worse than cop shoots innocent person? If your answer is yes, you're part of the problem.
You forgot the Stupid Greedy You who wants stuff without providing any recompense.
Fuck off, and feel free to take all your shit that keeps getting regurgitated with no imagination to be sold again and again and again with you. It won't be missed.
All Facebook has to do is get a few big name devs onboard, or convince Epic that Unreal Engine should be able to target Gameroom, and they are sorted.
Not even nearly. You clearly aren't a gamer. To even stand a chance to capture the core gamer as you put it they would need to bag exclusivity deals to make people consider abandoning their chosen platform but that will more than likely make them abandon the game. There are shitloads of games, on a bunch of platforms, only a few of which are actually any good though, it needs to better than all the competition otherwise why would people bother, and it won't be.
The Wii U flopped only because it was marketed horribly, didn't have 3rd party support, and didn't have enough 1st party support. The console previous was one of the best selling consoles ever.
The wii might have been one of the best selling things ever but that was only because of the casual and "sports" stuff on it. There were very few proper games and even less that weren't put out by nintendo. They won't replicate that again and this new switch things looks like it will suffer the same fate as the wiiu. They'll keep on selling a fuckton of ds' though or whatever handheld they replace that with whenever they get around to it. Oh yeah, this facebook thing ain't going anywhere either.
Nobody is doing fiber to the home, even Google has now bailed. It's way, way too expensive. Leverage the copper you already have in place that was built back when it didn't cost so much to do it.
Nobody except the rest of the world maybe. You know, that place where there is actual competition in the market.
None of the extra stuff you mentioned is enough to make me go 'wow I want to pay for that'. If Apple wants to through extra stuff in to distinguish themselves then fine, but really, metal case versus plastic case, fans that reduce noise, these are all cheap gimmicks, not things that make a laptop a prermium one.
And of course, your needs and wants are everyone's needs and wants, right?
Yeah, why don't they just get on board and have their wants and needs dictated by apple? Bloody plebs eh thinking they're too good for the kool aid.
More likely, Apple wants to ensure that products are made to a satisfactory quality
So what, make it white, curve the edges, emboss the logo and ship it out? That's apples idea of quality, they don't really give a shit if it works as well as it good or even well.
you are OK with being scanned with radiation that can see through your clothes...
... but isn't actually effective at detecting any threats (like weapons or whatever it is supposed to detect).
It does exactly what it's supposed to do. Look big and scary and reassure most folk that there is security, doesn't matter that it's about as secure as a barn door, it's the image that counts.
They could have included a special plug the fill the 3.5mm jack if you don't need it and want improved waterproofness. Although waterproof 3.5mm jacks exist and are barely more expensive than a non waterproof one, the contacts inside can still corrode due to salt in sweat for example.
What are you dong with your phone that you get sweat in the jack?

Nobody should vape either. Quit polluting my air, faggot.
So you don't drive then?
Hell yeah, I want to mutate me some fire breath!

You can say the same about alcohol.

Godwin won, it's in the name.
sure, it's awesome if you want shit compressed worse than quality 3 mp3s. Oh wait, you think they have "high definition" audio lol.
But, but, but, it said HD in the description.
And Clinton is a reptilian and Trump is just a massive idiot. What's your point?
There's no advantage to it though, other than a slightly different interface to learn.
The advantage of 10 is, it's not 8. Against 7 though, no.

An admirable goal, but it does not take into account all those computers shipped with Windows 9. They will still have to support those, smart guy.
There is no nine because seven ate it.

Heaven forbid people get paid for their hundreds of hours of work
Yo, fuckhead, scientists doesn't make money by charging by the download.

but only because one of the candidates could very well end democracy.
The worst part is, it's not immediately obvious which one you mean.
