Whatever they want, give it to them, because if your personal information is among their ransom then its all over. It doesnt matter what your toppings were, or when you ordered, or even why. Europe, and all the world, will know you to have intentionally and willfully placed an order for the worst american export since George Bush. Rumours will spread about your love for country music and before you know it, your allegance to nascar, cold budweiser, and jean shorts will be all but fact in the minds of your brethren.
You're not far from where potatoes were invented.
I bet you still eat freedom fries.
Sometimes I feel like having regular Italian pizza, and sometimes I want some Domino’s.
Besides, European food is (undeservedly) notorious for sucking, except in the south of Europe.
Where do you think Americans got their food culture from?
Can't say I've ever had freedom fries... are they similar to french fries or is that just the PC way of saying it? Honestly, they were french fries for years, if you're offended by the name, deal with it... we shouldn't change names because they offend a few people.
Also I agree with you statement. I believe you expose children to everything this world has to offer and support them when they pursue their interests. Obviously they're going to get more exposure to the same hobbies you have... but that doesn't mean that those are the only hobbies they should have. But what do I know? I don't have kids. I'm still a big kid myself.
Fun fact: Just caught something about this on the news. Apparently, after spending loads of cash (dont remember the exact amount) to open a new terminal at Sac international airport, the expected numbers of customers just isn't there. At the time construction started they could justify the expense. Now? They're looking at employee cut backs. I wonder if the TSA could be driving away business?
Actually no. If you start up steam and it can't detect an internet connection it ask if you want to attempt loging in again or go to offline mode. Once in offline mode any game you have previously downloaded will be available. While it is true that you have to have an internet connection to download the games in the first place, you don't need to have one after installation.
Gratuitous Space Battles is one example. After installing the game the whole directory can be copied to a flash drive, transferred to another computer, and it will run standalone. No need to install steam or even take it off the flash drive. This is just one example and not all games have this level of freedom. DRM encountered in steam is entirely at the software developers discretion. Just look at Red Faction: Guerrilla. *Shudder* Microsoft DRM.
Actually, I installed windows 7 on a lenovo laptop that shipped with XP. While it didn't look as fancy as it could have (I blame the intel graphics card) it was very effective. It even booted faster and ran smoother than a fresh XP installation. Also all the hardware was recognized and worked with the Win 7 drivers.
I could be mistaken, but i remember hearing somewhere that scientists discovered the cause of this problem. Something to do with a small worm that was incubating in their brains and as it grew larger and more mature it would literally drive the bee insane. The bee would then fly away from the hive to die as its brain was being reamed out by this parasite.
I could be entirely mistaken, but that's what I heard.
Did you read that correctly? It states the following: Canadian law requires that all persons entering Canada must carry both proof of citizenship and identity. A valid U.S. passport or passport card is preferred... etc.

That would be idiotic if they made their data collection server a public facing one.
One byte at a time.
Spot on
BFDB = Big fucking database.
IMHO the article was TL;DR and IANAL so TINLA but OMFG. AFAIK the FBI CRAT. Hence they made a BFDB so they could tell their employees to RTFM.
Are you kidding?! That would make him hip and cool... he's probably funding the hackers in that scenario.

Meh. I can live with that....
Dominoes has a salami option.... actually quite good imho.
good to know... all the more reason to continue calling them french fries.
I was going to say in cans of anchovies but I like your pizza idea better.

There's a name for that. Bell curve I think.

And that was not what I was thinking of at all. Now it makes sense. I envisioned him starting wood fires as a hobby.
Wood burning? As a hobby I believe that's called arson.

They should just run their shit anyway. Easier to ask for forgiveness than permission. But TINLA.
Not only that, but human fear that which they cannot control. Intelligent people aren't stupid enough to just go with what people tell them.
Wish I had mod points for you. Great Airplane! reference.
Fly by wire? I could have sworn it was drive by wire seeing as, ya know, it's a car.
\You do not need a US Passport to travel to Canada.
