Maybe Walmart is just being stupid. Did they ever consider that? My swipe fees are zero. I pay $21 flat per month to the processor and then exactly what the card costs so if visa wants 0.8% on a debit card, that's what I pay. Maybe they should have gotten a plan that doesn't suck.
I hear that stupid, incorrect argument all day. When you buy a piece of hardware, IMMEDIATELY budget for its replacement in the recommended average number of years. Doing anything else is 100% your fault for doing the SDLC and 5 year planning wrong. For example, if you bought a desktop, plan and save for replacing it with another desktop in 5-7 years because that's reality. Pretending your machines will run forever then blaming microsoft because you fucked your budgeting is so unbelievably incorrect.
Wait so in the US most passwords (and server names and PC names and switch names and domain names) are Anime characters or related to Animes and in Japan they chose 123456? What the hell?
You obviously didn't take basic human biology in high school:
The review updates a previous Cochrane Systematic Review, carried out in 1999, with data from several new trials. In total, data from 15 trials, involving 1,360 people, were included. According to the results, zinc syrup, lozenges or tablets taken within a day of the onset of cold symptoms reduce the severity and length of illness. At seven days, more of the patients who took zinc had cleared their symptoms compared to those who took placebos. Children who took zinc syrup or lozenges for five months or longer caught fewer colds and took less time off school. Zinc also reduced antibiotic use in children, which is important because overuse has implications for antibiotic resistance.

Actually, when I have it on, everyone else can fuck off. That's the point of virtual reality, lol.
We can't even get people to agree on daylight savings time. This will never happen. Anyone using this probably is going to type an angry reply on their DVORAK keyboard from a location directly in the center of their own little fake reality.
I moved back to Myspace ages ago! Just kidding, in reality I moved back to not giving a damn about anyone's opinions or what they're doing and playing video games instead.
If they strap on an oculus rift headset, do you think that maybe they'd be able to see that nobody gives a shit unless it's news about them going bankrupt? I bet 50% of slashdotters don't use Facebook. They could use hamsters on wheels and mathematical savant unicorns as servers for all I care. I just want them to die already.
Yay, another article written by someone who has no idea what they're talking about. Hurray! Let's take an average movie. It's released in theaters for $x per ticket and the movie makers make the majority of their money. Then after a certain time period, it hits DVD and physical DVD rental services like redbox. They make a bit on that. Then it hits paid streaming/rental services like Apple and Amazon, sometimes at the same time as the DVD release. Then after a certain time period, it hits netflix if they have the money to license it and is also available to premium cable channels like HBO or Showtime. Then, after a long period, it goes into cheaper pricing for streaming and broadcast channel licensing availability.
So to the author: there is no streaming service that will give you Ender's Game at the same time as Weekend At Bernie's 2 because it's in a different tier, you idiot! That's how movied have worked for decades! You want to see it sooner, you pay more. That's how it is and it works.
The fastest, cheapest, most efficient systems right now have a payoff period of about 9 months. They're claiming they're doing it in 1 months. They're lying. They're probably not counting electricity or are lying about their efficiency or simply got lucky solo mining.
Also, 25 BTC are created every 10 minutes. There are 4392 sets of 10 minutes in the average month. He wants 10% of the 25BTC so 2.5 BTC per cycle is 10,980. So they're close but just short of it...except it doesn't work that way. You aren't stealing processing ability away from the rest of the network, you're supplementing it. So if the total network speed is like 700,000MH/s, you can't add 70,000 yourself and have 10%. Then you have 70,000 of 770,000 which is 9.09%. Then there's the fact that new miners are adding every day and lowering your profitability. I think it's like 1% growth per day or something so goodbye profits. They basically have a very bad business plan and aren't so great at math.
Whoever designed this system has never been on the internet apparently or played a game. I'm amazing at MW3. According to everyone I play with, I'm clearly cheating. In realtiy I am not. This system is bullshit.
I think the article is making a slight mistake here. Yes, idiots make dilluted homeopathic bullshit with like 1 molecule of snake venom maybe on average or whatever. But technically Zicam is classified as homeopathic and that's scientifically proven in multiple lab tests to stop a cold by preventing viruses from attaching to cell walls. It actually contains zinc and says it contains zinc too. So technically "homeopathic" doesn't necessarily mean it's that 14th century alchemist watered down magic bullshit, it just means it could be.

Did you ever considering putting the entire country or world on the same processor is stupider than putting each store on the cheapest one locally?
I don't pay a swipe fee on either.
"Since winds blow stronger and more consistently the higher above the ground you go"
Not true. Eventually you'll hit space.
Almost all anime is designed for adults, you clueless troll.

Another famous study around 2003-ish proved that the average duration of a cold was reduced to around 3 days as opposed to 9 with a placebo.
That's not a gift, that's called being bipolar.
Mega Waffles 3: Pancake Apocalypse Expansion. Also, Modern Warfare 3.
OMG and I can totally have it transform 2D pics into a 3D estimation and virtual beat the crap out of my frenemies. Yay!
Hey, some of us still want to save money on candles and kerosene damn it.

Everyone who uses Facebook seems to be in their own little self-centered world anyway. That's why they bought Oculus. It simply matches.

Stealing a password = jailtime. So who do they intend to arrest for this? It's damn well better be someone.

Why are you such an unbearable douchebag?
And as a followup question, fuck you. Oh I mean "fuck you?"

Everyone who worked with Steve Jobs said he was impossible to work with, obsessive, and not remotely charismatic. Who wrote this nonsense?

"determine who (if anyone) stole the bitcoins" That's how you know their accounting system was top notch.
