If both parties agree, then where is this supposed injustice that needs to be corrected?
Because, as someone else noted, one idiot on Facebook can share data about *other* people--people who never consented to have that data shared, or perhaps never even joined Facebook.
And here's what's terrible about it: no consistency. Just about every program, since it has a unique purpose, is going to have functions that don't fit under any generalized charm that's there for all programs. They're going to have to provide that function somewhere else. So I'm not going to have one place to go to for all my program's functionality--and then I have to start guessing. Did they put it under Charms, perhaps by forcing it a bit? Did they put it somewhere else? Where is it?
...which was destroyed in an Allied bomb raid in 1943. Yes, a duplicate was built in the 1960s which is still operational today, but it doesn't stop the WITCH from becoming the oldest *original* still-operating computer in existence.
Asclepius was, of course, the god of medicine, which has led some people to think that perhaps Socrates accepted the death sentence (he could have avoided it by going into exile, which is was in fact the expected response in such cases) because he was terminally ill.
Vista ultimately gained about 24% of the OS market before Windows 7 was released.
For the OS that was supposed to replace XP. For an OS that was sold pre-installed on most computers for years. Yes, in those circumstances, 24% is not just a failure, it is a *dismal* failure.
Jeez, did have a contest to find the worst UI concepts possible? An app's functionality belongs in the app, not off in some "charm" somewhere (which charm is it in? Scavenger hunt time!)
The few people I know who still use DVDs like to collect them, not rent them, and the rest do not care at all.
Yep, I fall into this category. I like having DVDs, because I like having them in my hands; I like the permanence. Of course, I don't get that permanence with renting, and I've never rented DVDs. I suspect this is the same with other people who still use DVDs; the people who wanted to rent now just download. Even if there is a small cadre of die-hard renters, they're being syphoned off by Redbox, who do it much cheaper than a traditional store could ever hope to.
Because people everywhere should conform to *my* ideas of how they should live their lives!
Eating healthy is great. I eat very little snack food or fast food myself. (Although I am very much a carnivore.) But that's my choice, for me. You don't get to make that choice for other people.
The US government spends 19% on defense, and refunds 19% on social security and 20% on healthcare to recipients among whom many have past contributions in excess of benefits received in total. (This is the nature of insurance, you know. Insurance is a communist plot.)
Wrong. Social Security and friends almost invariably gives back much more than the recipient paid in contributions. Which is why it is not insurance, but a Ponzi scheme backed by general tax revenues (I remember the uproar a while back when some politician actually dared to point out this truth).

Radio station ratings and tracking album sales.

...none of them. I keep a Windows box for playing games on and Linux box for everything else.
We're using flying machines...against armed opponents...who are there to shoot flying things in the first place...
How did we fail?
For the OS that was supposed to replace XP. For an OS that was sold pre-installed on most computers for years. Yes, in those circumstances, 24% is not just a failure, it is a *dismal* failure.
I get that. The problem is that they're trying to unify these things *beyond* the degree possible, or at least practical.

But what about guys?

He's selling buggy-whips, only worse. There's still a small market for buggy whips.
Computer Science is Physics
Software Engineering is Mechanical Engineer/Eletrical Engineering.

I always suspected Sara Lee was a Bimbo...
Dude, it's over. Your guy won. You can relax now; you no longer have to be afraid that somebody on the Internet is wrong.
I work for a fairly large university. It's been part of our IT standard that all laptops must have full-disk encryption for a few years now.
I went to their last demo, and I didn't see anything!
Is that anything like drinking no tea?
