When the government screws the people, you can at least point at them and say "That's not right, you're not supposed to do that, and we're going to hold you to higher standards. We have that right."
And then you can enjoy the sweet, sweet sound of their derisive laughter.
When a corporation screws the people, they're just doing what "they're supposed to do". They have no higher standards to be held to.
And then you can decide not to give them any more of your money. That's not an option with a government.
You have NO friggin' idea what you're talking about. The mega-eruption, if it happens, could be *hundreds of thousands* times bigger than Mount St. Helens. The last super volcano was 75,000 years ago. Light was blocked out all over the world. 35 centimeters of ash fell *2500 miles* away. The global temperature plunged 21 degrees. Mankind was almost extinguished, cut back to only a few thousand. This one...could be *ten times bigger*.
You not only want to expose the source code of Bloated Goats to the world but intentionally expose young people to it? Good Lord, man, have you no mercy in soul at all?
You are not supposed to raise your hands, you're supposed to twist and lay down the screen.
Ah, good. Instead of having aching arms, we can have stabbing neck pains from constantly bending down to look at a screen that's flush with the table. Much better.
Police have learned that the couriers have in fact stolen *forty* cakes. According to experts, that's as many as four tens. "And that's terrible," said a spokesman for the German police.
The Tesla's current battery pack weighs 450kg so you could triple its range.
Better than that, especially in city driving. As others have pointed out, regenerative braking works *much* better when you're feeding back to a capacitor instead of a battery.
Horrors! You are, of course, right, you must only drink bottled water! Granted, it's generally tap water in a bottle, but the point is you'll feel better about yourself!
I happen to be allergic to most artificial sugars, specifically the ones used in diet sodas. Should I really have to pay a tax on a beverage when the alternative is to drink water?
FORTRAN - like physics problems about "how high does the baseball go when thrown at 1 meter per second", Fortran is a language you learn in college but never use in the real world.
Unless you do real world physics problems (seriously).
last time I checked, *my* pope was orthodox. or to be more precise, Pope and Patriarch of All Africa on the Holy Orthodox and Apostolic Throne of Saint Mark the Evangelist and Holy Apostle.
the official record is al gore won the popular vote. please, show us contingencies and if-then conditions where this is not true. it doesn't mean anything
There is no official record of the popular vote, as the popular vote didn't mean anything and thus wasn't officially counted. Your suppositions of what the popular vote might have been (had it been counted) don't mean anything.

...and replaced it with the rumor that no one owns a *working* Zune.

It's different in that reading a paper book doesn't require me to have an arm constantly lifted to manipulate its screen.
Ah, good. Instead of having aching arms, we can have stabbing neck pains from constantly bending down to look at a screen that's flush with the table. Much better.

It'll defrag your disks in less than 12 parsecs!
You'd be surprised. I still like to play Robotron 2084.
But I can--legally--on GameTap. If Spore is that good--if people still want to play it--odds are it will continue to available in some form.
Because throwing more hardware at the problem will fix your software bugs. Oh wait...
Therefore we can deduce that a salesman with a screwdriver would be truly terrifying.
Speak for yourself, John. I *like* having inflation stay in the single digits.
Wow! I get to never work again, and I'll still get $30k/yr! And why would I want to work, since I'd only get the same amount of money anyways?
Horrors! You are, of course, right, you must only drink bottled water! Granted, it's generally tap water in a bottle, but the point is you'll feel better about yourself!
Fixed that for you.
Good thing you cited an unbiased source on that.
And having it all in a tree makes it easier to search, too!

Conclusion: circletimesquare is an amazing psychic who can predict alternate futures.
Question: Why isn't he the world's richest man?
Otherwise known as "Leroy".

Irony. It's like goldy or bronzy, only it's made of iron.
I don't know about you, but I touch-type. I want my keyboard to "reprogram" itself about as much as I want a 2x4 to the face.
And the charity will be ever so grateful for the massive copyright liability you've donated!
