i've been backed into twice without apology. once, a taxi was backing out of someone's driveway and hit me in the hip. i was almost out of his way, on his driver-side rear bumper. he didn't acknowledge me, not even a "sorry" wave. just backed out and left.
the second time some oblivious chick had stopped at a T intersection and i crossed the street behind her. she decided that she had stopped too far into the road she wanted to turn on and backed into me without looking. i was exactly centered with her car; she hit me with her trunk. she didn't even notice. a couple seconds later she calmly made her turn.
another time i had a near miss crossing a two-lane road at another T intersection. i was halfway across the street when the car coming toward me, that was supposed to be anticipating a stop sign, approached the intersection. the girl driving (who clearly had no intention of making the stop, but was going to turn right instead) looked up at me through her side window and gave a look of shock as though she had just noticed me, but continued to california roll the stop sign. as she did i took a swinging kick at her back bumper. she screeched to a halt, stepped halfway out of her car and had the temerity to say she was justified because she hadn't hit me. so again, no apology. she's lucky i didn't hit her. i would have punched her in the mouth like she was a man.
it's a song lyric. that was the most obvious thing about it.
It would be especially helpful for those of us who have no idea who Fat Mike is, what NOFX is, or what The Idiots Are Taking Over is (nearly everyone)
google it yourself, retard. nobody wipes your ass for you, either, so get your shit together. (NOFX is a punk band, which is why nobody cares about the grammar or your ignorance.)
technically, they're wrong. they assert that the the label was removed. this is false. the label was never put there to begin with. and it was never put there to begin with precisely to avoid the stupid, childish bickering over the term persian vs arabian. iran's diplomats should be tried under sharia law for wasting allah's time. if it were my maps, i'd make the label say Gulf of Fucktard Politics.
a universal remote for war toys? what could possibly go wrong? it's not like anyone's abused a universal remote for something else. and these exclusive relationships we're locked into... what happens when the honeymoon's over? are we on a subscription? do they just hand the remote over to north korea if they pay more? do they have a backdoor override on everything?
diversity and taste. that's why there are more options for aesthetics than what purely pragmatic, utilitarian points of view have to offer. it turns out that people will design things all kinds of crazy ways with crazy materials just to stand apart, break the monotony, add value, or serve a particular purpose that is outside of average. yes, interior walls can be brick. in a lot of homes, in a lot of places. stop trying to excuse your assumptions by projecting your ignorance as insults, you look stupid. much more wasteful than interior brick walls is the electricity you used to make all these posts arguing about average wall density.
lame troll attempt? patents have to describe a process that isn't obvious. range checkers for any language have a very limited number of ways they could be implemented efficiently, and are thus obvious.
except it doesn't look like they do.. from their blog:
We were excited to try a NoSQL db, having spent too many years using MySQL in ways that the designers of relational databases never imagined. CouchDB seemed well suited to our needs.
ok how about this analogy. the qubit is a piece of information, not a physical entity that can physically move. this is why they say it does not move through space. compare a qubit to a meme. let's say you and i are like an entangled pair of photons. a meme resides inside my head: it's a state of my perception, equivalent to a qubit. i speak my idea out loud, and phonons carry the vibration across air-filled space to your ears (like the laser beaming the 2 classical bits of info) where it is decoded and reinterpreted by your brain to be the same meme. during that action it's important to consider the phonons as not the same thing as the idea. the idea never left my head even though i transmitted it. then let's say you agree with the meme, and now we're of like mind. in the experiment, the one photon essentially received information via classical means (the laser) from the other photon and decided to agree with it because it was entangled.
unfortunately this is beyond most 5th graders. any analogy for laymen will always fall short. analogies for those familiar with QM are tough enough as it is. but here's a classic bob and alice example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_teleportation#Motivation

would be great to find a whistle in your cereal box that can make people's robotic arms slap themselves. or hand you money.
did they have a guy who discovered how to harness electricity with a key tied to a kite? cuz this story sounds familiar.
cool story bro.

it's +(-1). never subtract or divide when you can avoid it.
who else is there to vote for?

nah they're just keepin it real

add the rfid transmitters in the currency as another big brother tactic.
Eventually, computer interfaces might completely remold themselves to your mental state.
