Heh. I took the train into Chicago for many years. There's a Mars plant next to the line, with a passenger stop. Every morning the robot-voice would announce "The next stop will be... Mars".
Oh for fuck's sake. Stay off our roads. Keep your kids out of our schools. Stop drinking our socialist treated water. Stop eating our collectivist inspected foods. Stop using our socialist sewers. Stay off our government-granted monopolist power grid. Don't call our communal fire department.
In other words, go back to middle-ages subsistance farming and its way of thinking.
By the same token, now you have to implement pie.toast() and cake.toast() and lots of other useless and irrelevant methods, even though you're never ever going to use them, simply because they extend the isBakeable() interface.
I used to have a procedural toaster which cooked the bread until it became toast. Then I upgraded to a much more elegant OO toaster, which simply sends a "toast yourself" message to the bread. Unfortunately, bagels don't have a self.toast() method, so i still have to have a backup procedural toaster to handle the older API.
Then we need to start arresting people as they leave the McDonald's drive-thru. At least people driving drunk KNOW they're drunk and are just praying to get home without incident; people with hot French Fries aren't paying attention and don't give a fuck what's going on around them. And don't EVEN start with me about high-school-age girls with cell phones...

How many rovers do YOU (or **anyone** else for that matter) have on Mars?
Oh please. I'm SURE Comcast will have *no problem whatsoever* with Google running (common carrier) fiber to people's houses.
Agreed. Starship Troopers was awful. I LOVED it.
That's because HOA board members' heads are smaller on the inside.
Before this, we referred to wearable devices that did this as "hip flasks".
That is ABSOLUTE GENIUS. Worthy of framing. Did you just come up with that, or is it from somewhere else?
Surely this is "fair use" isn't it? ;-)

It doesn't matter whether WE think it's inaccurate, it matters how much law enforcement and HR think it's ACCURATE.
Never seen a disco clam. I do recall a few disco beavers, back in the day...

I right spill chuckers two!
Don't anthromorphize your objects. They don't like that.

I think I a word.
A lot of US were busy-waiting.
Thanks a lot asshole, a lot of were busy-waiting while you were typing.
So they're upset that new features in an OS consumes more memory?
I felt like a million IT people cried out "DUH!" and then were silenced.
I do not think that word means what you think it means.
Haven't the Chinese done some prior research in this area?
No, the other 22% don't work at all.
Well, it's not like they're gonna use Windows and be pwned by third-graders, is it?
Yup. The difference is the internal NSA's systems are air-gapped so those sons-of-bitches at the GCHQ can't listen in.
