Well, wait a minute. I'm surprised actually. I thought iOS and OS10 were supposed to be great OS's. So what is the actual problem? Is it bugs? Is it UX/UI? Can anyone clarify?
DUI's are a huge money maker for the state. You would think by now that people would not drink and drive, but government knows how human nature tends to be so, they legislate vast amounts of penalties on these types of convictions. When are people going to learn that the law is there to protect one thing and one thing only? Money and usually the direction of that flow of money, from us to them.
As a cock-owner who also enjoys the cock, I take offense at being compared to OP.
QFT. There's no need to sully the good name of faggots by insinuating they are somehow all fixie-riding, bearded, hipster douchebags. That kind of bigotry is disgusting.
Government and people who work for government will lie, cheat, and steal to get what they want out of you unsuspecting citizens. Anyone who thinks that this doesn't or shouldn't happen is a naive fool. Be aware of who you talk to and what you say. Now do I think it's right? Nope, but that is the pragmatic view that I have to take. All this does is set up an environment of utter animosity and distrust. Live and reputations are at stake but the state doesn't give two shits about that.
Really, who gives a fuck anymore about global warming or climate change other than control gaia freaks. We argue incessantly about this subject and get nowhere. The reality is, is that the world will not give up on petrofuels anytime soon and we have a cleaner environment than ever before. At least in the US and some EU countries. So what is the incentive other than leftist redistributive taxation schemes that the world can deal with? Frankly none. As long as those countries who through their own ingenuity have to succumb to having their citizens foot the bill for the less well off countries to try and come into some sort of compliance, then nothing will happen. And really the dirty little secret is, is that no one really gives a shit about countries like India or China's climate or environment. They created it themselves and asking others to pitch in their money to help them is a non-starter.
I'd be a little upset about this. It was a needless thing to do. Greenpeace would do itself a better favor by placing their 'change agents' in upscale liberal/leftist neighborhoods where they can make their insipid pleas for Gaia to uninformed white people instead of disrupting the very thing they are fighting for in the name of their cause.
They might as well kill whales to save them.
That has been the strategy all along and Obamacare was the vehicle to get that done. Remember, no republican voted for this thing and every democrat did, with the Nancy Pelosi vestige of "we have to pass it to know what's in it..." and now we know what's in it and I don't know of a single soul that even remotely likes it and now you can see how invasive this legislation really is to every American.
So I guess fire is out for generating light for a mostly open 8th world toilet? They should really solve their shit problem, before worrying about lighting.
I do not understand this seemingly perpetual need to shoe-horn girls/women into specific sets of careers in order to satisfy some politically correct narrative about gender/pay equality across the board of occupations. Males are different than females with respect to how they think, how they visualize, how they feel, how they communicate, et al. Science or the hard sciences are by-in-large geared towards men not only from an interest point of view, but from the way these sciences are set up infrastructurally. Those set up may not be conducive to women and they then stay away.
Of this giant bursts of speed with unlimited internets if you are going to get jacked up rates and constant throttling? I realize that innovation must slog forward, but 4G hasn't even been around for that long and prices haven't really settled as of yet. Now 5G and frankly more uncertainty.
So, how or what will the mechanism be to measure the level of THC in the blood or breath? Also, what will those numbers correspond to? No one knows and there has never been any published corollary numbers to back that up. It's always been, you are either high or not high.
I'm a mechanical engineer and I've been doing the 2-3 year circuit of staying at a company long enough to glean the information I need to parley that into something more meaningful somewhere else. I'm 45 and I've been in the industry nearly 25 years and I learn new things all the time, but I do sometimes get the sense that I'm starting to age myself out of the market. Especially considering the level of salary I can command, which is is now and has been in the 6 figures for some time. Do I expect that to decline as I get older, I hope not. Will I be rejected from time to time due to my age I imagine, but overall that doesn't bother me. I'll probably work until I drop dead simply because I enjoy the work that I do.
However, given that, with the tech boom in NorCal being what it is, I find it sometimes difficult to deal with the arrogance and hubris that is put on display by the 20 somethings that believe their shit doesn't stink. It's almost a total disregard for respect not only for others, but how they interact with others. It's not demographically wide, but there is almost a built in douche factor after they leave university, hook up with some buddies, come up with a somewhat catchy idea, give it a some kind of cute name they can brand, and carry it forward into trying to make it something meaningful as they burn through gobs of money from investors with little to nothing to show for it. All the while they believe they are being kind socially conscious, but in reality ending up being wage slaves waiting or pretending to exercise their options if they ever nail it big, which for many is a long shot. I go for the sure thing. Pay me and I'll give you my best. I'm not here for the free ride of potential success.
Sure, you could go on, but in reality what you are advocating for is control and government control at that. Targeted regulations and how they are applied have an inherent benefit if the system by which they are created was objective in that application. It isn't and therefore, regulatory practices and control are simply emplaced to do one thing and one thing only, control you and what you do.
There are things in the bill that they might not wanted to support? Read the bill or look and see if there things in there that may have been even worse. Things get crammed into bills like this all the time and no one knows about them until it's too late.
If I want to ride my car to anywhere I want, then I will. Please don't presume to tell me how to affect my freedom of mobility as I see fit. The less i have to pay to be mobile the better off I'll be. Period.

So? and you point is?

And yet the reality is what matters.
You are so badass.

It's about time that LEO's started seeing some of their immunity powers taken away.

Made my day too. I'll bet you dollars to donuts that the word 'disruptive' was used.

I believe in open source in certain areas and not in others and not even from a coding point of view.

Yeah, this was a deal killer for me. I want to be able to run my own game on my terms, now I won't be able to do that. It's really sad too.
