This. There's lots of handwringing rhetoric from politicians about the cost for treatment for conditions related to smoking but they always conveniently forget to mention that the income from taxation is at least 10 times that amount. The amount that alcohol related conditions costs compared to the tax income is a lot closer, yet they never bang on about that. Instead it is extremely rare that spirits go up in price whenever a Budget is announced so over time they become cheaper but a pack of fags gets at least quadruple the rate of inflation (CPI or RPI, whichever is greater) added on each time.
What I've noticed in recent car ads is they are of two types: either "model may differ from that shown" for ones you can buy without being a second mortgage (then show me the one I can buy, you know, the models with the steering wheel on the correct side) or ones which you can only lease for business (fork out a lot up front, pay monthly and after the lease when you've paid enough to have actually bought the thing you still don't own it). Not interested.
It has everything to do with foreign servers because that is where the data is held. This data is also protected by the laws of the country it is held in from extradition just because a foreign party (in this case the US Govt is the foreign party) wants it.
Even if there is a subpoena, that again is irrelevant to obtaining data held in a different jurisdiction as, just like warrants, they have no legal force whatsoever outside the country of issue. If one is issued in Eire, then fine. Until then, tough shit.
Oh, I'm fully prepared for the possibility of alacritous flight being required. Once bitten, and all that. What PPH describes above isn't close to what I have encountered over the years.
If I'm pushing a button that I think means flush I have already stood up and adjusted my clothing beforehand in order to avoid *any* possible complications from that operation. These certainly include unexpected jets of water coming from the bowl.
You sell where the buyers are or you're not a very successful businessman unless you're lucky enough to break into a new demographic and corner the market.
A million people got off their arses and went to the effort of protesting in the Mall against the invasion of Iraq. You'd think that would count more than a blithe clicking of a button on a web page.
You can also only develop apps for iOS on Apple machines (Hackintoshes aside), meaning you pay Apple for the hardware to develop on, pay again to be a developer of apps and give them a cut of any sales.
For Android, you can develop on any platform that you can run the SDK on and sign up for an account to sell it. Costs nothing.
I have a Spiritualised CD I can't rip because the drive in my laptop doesn't recognise it as being in a valid format. Plays fine in a crappy old stereo, though. It's not on any peg-legged parrot wielding sites I searched for probably that reason. I think I've still got a 20yo old IDE CD-ROM lying in a drawer somewhere that might manage it.

You could have just fed them raw potato if you felt you needed to dose them with solanine. A lot cheaper and much easier to obtain.

Probably spelled that way so some dumb ass doesn't sue them for not developing flight ability after drinking just like the animated ad depicts.

Or "has shrunk". Pick one. You're not rapping with Mary J Blige.

Quite. The rest of the planet doesn't give a shit about Google Voice as Google don't give a shit about getting it to them.
Calls, texts and data with tethering. Doesn't include hookers, so, no, not really a cell plan. /s
I'm on an unlimited data SIM only plan from Three. 40GB/month tethering and free texts as well. £12 including VAT.
It would have been posted here before, but the clock that is used to schedule it unexpectedly failed.

"Lux is statically typed to reduce bugs and enhance performance"
Citation needed showing actual proof this is true and not just someone hating on dynamic typing.

May as well murder someone. You get less jail time.

Not including the initial outlay for a MacBook Pro, I assume.
It isn't recognised as even having a filesystem. Don't know how they did that.

Which can play WAV and MP3 natively. Why not FLAC as well?
The iRiver not playing FLAC out of the box was why I got a Rio Karma instead. It still works.

Inside EV certificates it's too dark to decrypt.
Oh, wait. Wrong joke.
If you pay her enough she'll piss on your bed.
