Correction: Bethesda's lawyers are being total assholes here.
Nope, they are just helping Bethesda defend their trademark (remember, if you dont defend it, you lose it, especially since Notch is also is also in the same gaming business).
Interesting! I never knew you could do that. Thanks for correcting me. And I learnt one other term today, if any body else is interested "Judgment notwithstanding verdict"
So, do you think the guy in this case has been punished without evaluating how good he is at multi-tasking? May be we could put him on driving simulator, ask him to talk on a phone, text on another and simulate some dangerous situations, and measure his reaction time. May be this should be part of the license test?
Can't talk while driving? How about with the other passenger.
Actually they are different, the fellow passenger usually knows when to shut up, and when not to expect a reply. He/she can even help you be aware of the surroundings (For ex, if I were a passenger, I would would watch out, as if I was driving the car). This is not the case with cell phones. Besides the person on the other end might not even know you are driving. You, also, tend to spend more of you attention when talking to some on a cell phone, than in person or in a very casual setting (atleast I do, and I know people who do).
I agree with the one-hand though. I drive a manual, and most of the time I only have my left hand on the wheel.
Er, are you being serious? I thought the above comment was a joke. Jury nullification is when the jury disregards the law and pronounces a verdict that that is contrary to the law (considering ethical reasons and non-conventional interpretation of the law).
And a Judge cannot overrule a Jury (there is nothing to overrule actually, what the Jury pronounces is actually the verdict (unless there is a mistrial of course)).
How do I know, because if you did you would know what it's like to almost be taken out by some complete dingbat talking on the phone and not watching where he's bloody well driving.
You really dont know what it takes to get a license, do you? I infer from your statement that, you are the one without a license.
The GP I posted to, did not say 'non-hispanic whites are a minority', he plainly said whites. Even if he had said that, his statement would still have been bullshit. The 2011 census disagrees with him... About 43% non-hispanic white, about 38% hispanic. And I dont trust the source for 2006 43%.
Besides the GP's statement was alluding that blacks are the majority (the rant that blacks are evils followed by something that states whites are a minority)
Er, thats not what I meant. Say hypothetically, I enter Civic Center station at 8 in the morning, with my ticket. I stay in there till says night, along with bunch of fellow travelers. And at night I take a train to Powell St. I would have spend $1.75, and would have achieved what I had wanted (If I were a protestor of course, which I am not)
Slashdot Mirror
The writer, probably, doesnt want a web search for "MS Office" lead to this article. I will leave it to the tin foil hats to explain why, though.
Or why Australian Dollar costs more than American Dollar?
Nope, they always do! (Unless you can provide an example where they havent, the statement stands)

If it is good enough to run flash, I would say it definitely qualifies as a smartphone.

But it does prevent others from criticizing you. Which, sadly, seems to be good enough for a lot of people.

Arhhh, yet another one falls for Khyber. Khyber is a troll, who claims to be a lot of things he is not.
6) Again, that's one theory. An alternate theory is that the Wachowski brothers are frickin abysmal writers who just got lucky the first time.
I agree with you 100% on that one!

we all gotta die some time
We all gotta kill someone sometime too, right?
I know I am being trolled, but still!
what the hell did he want to convince them he was using to grip the wheel ?
Look, ma, no hands!
. In all those cases, as with cell phones, you can stop doing those activities at any time to focus on the road.
The problem is, how do you know when it is time to focus on the road, when you are already distracted.
That you dont even have your license.

Yeah, the Judge Nullification right?
Here you go
Yes, Silent Video do not fall under Wiretapping laws.
Public street, well, she might not be able to release the audio depending on the state law. My state you can't. Video/stills, yes.
Technically the crime was committed when she recorded it, not when she released it. (She is in MA, one of the two party consent states like mine).
Hi there, and I'd like to introduce you to the concept of "minority group". No hints for you, since you annoyed me.
how many more privately owned towers are out there
Er, all of them? Does anyone know any govt owned cell network/tower?

Here's a tip for those in California - did you know that you white folks are in the minority there? Sleep well...
What a bunch of crap. About 80% are white. And thanks for you concern, I do sleep well, irrespective of the racial demographics of the state I am in.
