The jury selection wasn't hard but they managed to only follow at most half of the rules I would see as obvious.
1. anyone who owns an iphone or samsung phone, kick them off the jury
2. anyone who works with patents heavily in their own company -- oops!
So they've gone from invincible super hardware that's thoroughly tested and perfect to a piece of crap they basically didn't even test. Taking a couple photos under various typed of light sources would have revealed a problem like this on day 1 of testing.
As soon as they feed data in, they realize they were wrong about some part of physics or particles or total universe mass and start over. There are hundreds of pure assumptions and estimations put in to the point where the accuracy is terrible. Then when the result doesn't match, they sort of BS it until it does match but the numbers barely make sense. Not exactly the best use of supercomputing. They'd probably get more money than that science grant money baiting if they ran a bitcoin miner on it instead, lol.
They're tablets but they can run basically anything because they're Windows-based and they're very fast, get insane battery life, and weigh like 2 pounds. No CD drive, okay, but at least you can actually type on them, unlike a tablet. I had a Toshiba Portege in my shop and it was so fragile-seeming, nobody wanted it. I had to sell it for half its retail value! I got it for 1/4 its retail value used but still, lol. The only reason people aren't picking up really nice ones like the new Samsung model is they're $1300 freaking dollars!!!!! For that money I'd lug around a Toshiba Qosmio, not some underclocked piece of crap, lol.
Aaaaaaaaand there goes the gold bubbles. Bye bye paranoid investor morons that buy high. Whether this is real or not, this is the big supply side boost that kills the idiotically high gold bubble.
Oh screw bikes! they're annoying, hurt your back, and riders never obey traffic laws. I know many people who lost over 50 pounds playing Dance Dance Revolution. One US state made DDR mandatory in their physical education curriculum because it works, it's fun, and it's around 1800 calories per hour burned. After playing it for 2 years, I sat down at the leg press at my gym after not having lifted weights for years and did the entire weight stack easily. If people really want to lose weight in a way that's agreeable, get them off the bikes and on the dance mats!
Why are Apple devices still so overpriced? You're making well enough profit to lower the price to something reasonable. The long term market share growth would be more than enough to make up for the short term profit loss.
I think internally though they refer to it as a ball grabber product line since once part of your data and operations are on the cloud, they'd got you by the balls, lol. I know when I look for a software suite, complete lack of control over parts of it that are offsite, slow performance, need for an ungodly expensive fast internet connection, and zero failover options are all big perks.
I don't know if you knew this or not but criminals trick stupid people into getting their bitcoins or USD stolen, just in 2 different but similar ways. Can you keep your credit card 100% unusably encrypted 99% of the time and only unlock it when you need to make a transaction that you approve manually? Nope, only bitcoin does that.
You mean that Apple put in a flashy, showy feature just for the sake of looking cool and ignored functionality in the design of one of their products? That's unheard of! Aww crap, my roommate's iMac just overheated again, lol.
I got a 100% 189/189 perfect score on the original Angry Birds in 6 hours with a mouse. So basically so that people can cheat at games cuz mouse > finger. Also, MONEY!!! MOAR MONEY!!!!
Yes, why not build spacecraft there? Because we don't have a trillion dollars to spare? That might be it.
Another good reason is because we don't have any metal or fuel or supplies or people or vendors or communication infrastructure or USPS addressing locations or anything other than moon dust and nothingness on the moon.
But are they going to allow patents on certain subatomic particle arrangements? It worked for DNA. Good luck with that, lol. Sue the core of the sun!! SUE THE SUN, DAMN IT!
Anyone can tell you that if you cross the border to Mexico for some college trip thing or something like people always do, the drinks are under half the price. They obviously must have adjusted the beer price for average gross income of the country or something because Mexico has us beat. They don't just mark it down to attract customers from the US, it seriously is cheaper everywhere, even southern Mexico.
I'm all pro-internet and stuff, obviously, but before a government gets fiber to everyone in a country, maybe they should get everyone an emergency kit, basic medical care, a place to live, proper nutritional assistance, their own bomb shelter for nuclear war, a gun, a more efficient car, a water filtration system, money off their taxes, a vote that actually counts, additional insulation, their own surveillance and security system, or just money. I don't actually think they should buy them those things but they'd certainly come before fiber to the household.
Well, sorry that you're susceptible to a global warming-induced global food meltdown but at least your internet went from 5Mbps to 50Mbps. Oh and those homeless kids, well, at least they can go to the library and play minecraft with no lag. Seriously! This is a completely unacceptable thing for any government to spend money on right now.
I've got no problem with fiber backbone upgrades though, just needless residential connections.
I guess you didn't realize this amazingly advanced logic but as a christian, compared to muslims, one of us is correct and one is not. There is no "tolerance" when both religions demand that there be no other fake religions. The only person who can truly promote "tolerance" is one who thinks we're both wrong and that's atheists, which is around 18% of the US and the US is not rules by an 18% majority system. So we disagree, deal with it.
Zeus tells me that BOTH religions are fake. And the Pink Unicorn tells me that making Religion into Law is blasphemous and shall be punished in eternal fire.
Anyway, it's a feeble God who needs armed men to defend himself.
It's a feeble mind who doesn't realize that if God or Satan could do absolutely anything they wanted with no rules and affect humans via any method and remove all free will and veto and human action, that wouldn't work so well. Learn about something before you talk about something.
Perhaps they should have put half the cows in cow stasis until more food is available. I think that's what the aliens behind cattle mutilations have been working on.
I've never seen Coke plug Pepsi on their cans either! It's their product! of course they're not going to plug their competition! They're not some universal utility thing that everyone has a right to. Their search engine and advertising are 100% owned and created by them so they can remove their competition from it all they want.
That page has more exhibits than a science fair. If they're all like the couple I read, kiss your billion goodbye, Apple. Since they have like 23, I mean the one from Samsung, lol.
Your demand for "blasphemy laws" is, to us, blasphemy!
Hey, if I consider Islam to be blasphemy, they should definitely pass that law so none of their BS will be allowed in the Christian parts of the world. That'd be awesome, lol.

"I'd like to hear a good case for why BitCoin makes sense in this context."
It's anonymous.
Well, it's a 2 part process. I don't know part 2 but I do know part 1 is using a blackberry instead of a real phone.
There's that one guy in India or whatever that ate an entire airplane over like 30 years or something so "invent" might be a little much, lol.

Yeah, welcome to the internet. If he said "Your mom's a whore, you suck, rage quit and uninstall, COD FTW" I wouldn't be surprised either.
We need terabit Ethernet NOW, not in a decade.
My hard drive only writes at about 100MB/s so I'm good actually. Anything backbone-ish can use Fiber.
