In particular, when the game is "heads up" (only two players), and the chips are not deep, which happens at the end of every tournament, then the correct strategy is to "jam or fold" all hands.
I never understood this. It just seems to ruin the game. Can you elaborate?
Part of the problem is that Lollipop offers little new, but does destroy existing functionality. Google Calendar is much less usable than before. Personal and business email is now handled by the same application, making it much more difficult to keep private and business separate. Etc..
What? Google Calendar comes from the play store and should be the same on any version of android. I use business email and gmail, which are managed by separate apps. I'm not sure what you've been smoking. Lollipop doesn't reduce any functionality aside from Xposed. I've never run into a single app that works KitKat but not Lollipop (including my own).
You're missing the point, even though you stated it perfectly.
There are other cheap Android phones you can buy that offer more than the Amazon phone.
This is all it comes down to. People are going to pay high dollar for a weird 3rd party OS, hardware gimmicks, and lock-in unless the price is right. That's why the earlier cheap kindle tablets succeeded and the overpriced phone failed.
Nobody was else even/sampling/ 64 bit arm processors. Most did not even have 64 bit on their roadmap save a few server targeted chips.
Very forward looking behavior from apple. You're going to need 64 bit to use more than 2GB of ram without major pain (32 bit addressing is a bitch and workarounds are slow)
Nobody was sampling because 64 bits literally doesn't matter in the mobile space until you start needing more than 4GB of RAM. I'm sure Apple still appreciates all your support though.
OK, now let's not choose one of the largest cities in the US/Texas. I've been living in various cities in North Carolina for 10 years now and never had anywhere close to 8 choices for broadband. Even in the capital, Raleigh, there was Time Warner Cable, slow DSL, and *maybe* U-Verse (if you were lucky enough to live in the right neighborhood, I wasn't). I have a feeling this is much more representative than Austin TX where Google has set up shop.
Unless it's massive corruption they generally don't. Normally the company is charged a fine, shareholders lose a tiny bit of value, and life goes on. Meanwhile, peaceful protestors are routinely arrested. I don't think your analogy matches reality.
That's understandable, but there's better ways of doing that which avoid vaporware. They could, for example, take orders from anyone at any time (like a sane merchant) and just be honest about the fact that you're ordering a phone before it's even manufactured. People would be willing to wait if the company was honest.
I figured someone with an id less than 200k would get the joke, but there's another user on slashdot called jcr who always ends his posts with -jcr (as if the info at the top wasn't enough).
Yes you are. Mods are what made that game, although there were plenty of base servers. Not sure what your trouble was there given the easy server filtering...
Casually having fun with an FPS doesn't mean you don't have to find a terribly unbalanced game such that even experts can be killed by the newbies. All that does is anger the experts and the newbies still die most of the time. It's true a lot of good FPS have kind of a steep learning curve, but it goes with the territory. This game will fail as a lesser clone of TF2, which for the most part does a great job with balance.

I would also estimate that probably 70 percent of the folks I know in the area are against legalization.
Then they can pay for the law enforcement required. Can't have your cake and eat it too.
Not sure why they truncated my submission
Because questions like that are basically just trolling.

That's awful, but ideally if it's unconstitutional then the law has no bearing (not that any of this matters in practicality).
I'm not sure they've released Bioshock Infinity yet.

The difference is that there's about 10 major car companies selling in a given city and only one or two (if you're lucky) media content distributors.
Leadership of companies can still go to prison.

They are people, They have the same freedom of assembly as everyone else.
Then let them stand trial on behalf of the corporation and go to jail when unlawful activity has been found.
Do they inject infant chimps or mature ones?
Only for their own vanity. Over 2 billion is a great achievement on its own.
You don't. You just stop counting at 2 billion and say "over 2 billion". No one cares what the number is after that.

Limited storage.
why would it make sense for me to spend extra bucks on the PC? Just because some videophile found the console version to be "muddy"?
Higher framerate and/or resolution.

Because libertarians and any other 3rd party can't win until we get run-off elections.
