No thanks. I'd rather keep my freedom. I find the governments intrusion/power grab much more scary than terrorists. (Sadly the people I vote for who are against it, are in a minority thanks to the fear mongers in politics and the news media)
Exactly. That was one of the major reasons I quit cable tv too and one thing that really makes me feel good about it. That I don't support all that shitty reality tv anymore. I don't think I will ever go back to cable tv again. If I did, I would be a requirement that I could choose not to support those channels. That sadly includes the discovery channel after their 2007 decision to "focus on the people behind the technology instead of the technology" or however they worded it in their press release.
It is nice anti-apple spin. This case is so much more than just Apple and you had to go and kill an even more important story, just for some apple bashing. http://www.icij.org/project/lu...

(not in english) https://www.youtube.com/watch?... Denmark’s official 112 app is developed by The Danish National Police, Copenhagen Fire Brigade and The Danish Geodata Agency. It is financed by TrygFonden.
With Denmark’s official 112 app you can call the emergency center and simultaneously send the GPS-coordinates of the cell phone. That way you can get help faster.
- The 112 app is operational only in Denmark - The 112 app does not send any GPS-coordinates, if the GPS on the cell phone is deactivated - The 112 app can only send GPS-coordinates in locations with data connection.
If your battery level is lower than 25 % the 112 app will make the call to the emergency center, but it will not send any GPS-coordinates. This is to make sure, that you can talk with the emergency center without running out of battery. The 112 app will also automatically stop sending GPS-coordinates, if your battery level gets below 25 % during your call.

There was more information in the the text describing the video than the content of the video itself. Also it seemed that the "suit" was the worst place to see the fireworks.
It's the sort of thing people share on Facebook and I believe it was made for that purpose as it contained no information or explanation, was short and didn't require sound to watch(safe for work).
Thankfully YouTube DOES contain lots of interesting information from people around the world. Of course of varying quality. Personally I enjoy watching videos related to different type of electronics and pinball machines, found some useful repair videos. (one example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?... ). Also Conan has his "serious jibber jabber" that I found interesting( https://www.youtube.com/playli... )
There are no such thing as privacy as long as you have a cell phone, use a credit card, drive a car with a license plate, anything related to a internet connection, your face visible in public places for cameras to track. Hardly a surprise anymore.
Ever since 2007 where they announced that hey decided to focus on "the people behind the technology, than the technology", they have been working hard to become nothing more than yet another "reality" show channel. When I dropped cable tv 2 years ago, their transformation seemed to be complete and they had nothng but camera whores in their shows.
As the arcades closed I thought that never again people would accept coin-op's. But the Smurfberries in all their incarnations and the DLC's on PC clearly shows I was wrong.:)
I had the 500 and got a 2000 later on. Installed a SCSI controller with 40 megabytes of disk space and a 8 megabyte RAM expansion card. Took forever to install all the memory chips in the card(62 or 72, cant remember if it had a parity bit). Also had a vt200 terminal from work which i connected to the serial port so I could access the cmdline while someone was playing games. I guess it was most for show.:)
They have been sending them all over the world. Not everyone are used to that type of wording in English, they just see their domain name and something that looks like a bill.
As a "former European" you should know how crazy it is to claim that Europe has some sort of common values. There are no "European values". There's a bunch of countries with different values who happens to be in a trade union together. It is only the politicians who have been lying about the EU and are trying to make it into United States of Europe who will claim we have a "united Europe" with the same values. Every single true European knows each country has it's own values.
Yeah, that is pretty much how I view it too. I was thinking it seemed like they weren't really interested in South Park any more after they started doing broadway shows.
Because for some reason people think I am interested in watching hours of videos of them going down a slope, riding a horse or pretending they are in Tour de France. And they don't even bother to edit it down to a couple of minutes. No, they have hours of footage showing off their below average skills. I do like seeing bits of vacation videos but not really when it's just video selfies.

Or watch it on Netflix. Unless they chicken out too, american style. (zing)
well that was more sad than funny :(
IMHO the only thing that is different with mormons are time. When I look at different religions, they all seems crazy.
I know these people have been doing that at least since 2009.

I guess selling the largest energy provider and infrastructure in Denmark to Goldman Sachs is not going to help that goal.

The lack of proper infrastructure can break a city.
If I wanted to read about this shit, I would not come here.

Yeah. Why don't they make up a design of their own for a change. :D
Are the bloom moving closer to Orlando?

They don't give a shit anymore.
I know that the headphone output on my new Lenovo laptop at work is horrible. No dynamic range and I am not that picky.
Derka derb!!
