Most poor people that I know who buy cars do it on stupid loan terms... like 7 years, 10% APR for a used car.
If you say $300 car payment, $100/month for insurance, and driving 500 miles/month with a budget of $100/month for repairs, and $0.05/mile in gas, you come to a cost per mile of $1.05... about what it currently costs for an Uber.
Try getting an Uber to go to Christmas Valley, OR and get back to me on that. There are countless places like this that will never be served by Uber in the next decade. As for the loan example, I guess I know smarter poor people than you do. The poor people I know buy very cheap used cars for cash or near cash and drive and maintain them carefully.
I guess one could always sign out of their Amazon account on that device, or if you want to get a little more serious, firewall rule, ap isolation, etc. .
Actually the Roku based smart TV my parents have is one of the cleanest and most easy to use TV sets I've seen lately. The Amazon Element TV seems to basically be ripping that idea off and also looks pretty clean, although the addition of listening Alexa will turn many people off.
I'd consider getting one, particularly at a loss leader price point.
Yeah, I know it's true because some of the companies I've done work for use it and I had to look into how it would work, and no, I'm not doing your research for you. Have a good one.
Well it has to capture keystrokes, so I guess if the developer was having trouble w/ that the log would be useful. Not appropriate for release of course.
I've always wondered about the legality or enforceability of the "we own everything you do 24x7" part of those contracts. I suspect it would be hard for them to collect as long as the work was provably not done using company assets and was not competitive with their business interests. But IANAL.
If the arguments you list both for and against are taken to truly be as they seem at face value then the ability to extract the fetus from the woman's body (her body, her choice) and not kill it (it's a human and has a right to live) would seem to satisfy both sides. I strongly suspect that neither side is actually basing their positions on the stated argument, which is why I raised the question. Instead I suspect the pro-life side is against casual sex and the pro-choice side are more interested in a woman's 'right' to decide not to be a parent ex post facto.
So 1970 called, they want their crisis back. This is actually not an issue in the sense of uncontrollable population growth any more, if current trends continue we'll slowly peak around double or triple where we are now and then population will begin to plummet. http://www.goodreads.com/book/...
When two people talk on a plane, they are mutually consenting. (Of course, other people may be annoyed. But at least you hear two sides of a conversation.)
So basically the complaint is that you don't get to eavesdrop on both sides of the convo? Seriously?

The Roku TV is fine, I think you're making stuff up unless you can cite a source showing the Fire TV needs a connection to work.
I agree, the timeline and the dire consequences are the stupidity, the prediction that non-ICE vehicles are the future is pretty safe at this point.

In other news, study proves that city boy in Stanford has never lived any place where people are poor and/or rural.
Or now that I think 2 seconds more - don't enter your WiFi password into the TV.

Who is this Al guy, and why does he hate banks? Can we change his mind?
And how does that make us lucky?
How is encrypt everything so much different?

Because it's a service that is offered in an attempt to keep machines with custom hardware up to date.
Yeah, a log file that only logs keystrokes has an air of incompetence about it anyway.

I don't think an offshore outsourcing solution would involve visas.

So if this is made to work for humans will it make abortion obsolete?
