what happened years ago doesn't count since airlines are losing money now and looking for ways to cut costs. years ago we had somewhat real food on planes. even on short 3 hour flights. years ago i've flown on planes half full and had a whole row of seats to myself. years ago you could get to the airport 30 minute prior to your flight and make it easily
i haven't flown them for years, but how do they suck? you pay money, you get on plane. you pay to take luggage with you. sometimes weather happens along with other things and planes get delayed. sometimes luggage is lost. that's why anything expensive you always carry on yourself and never check it in.
and i've always hated the people that bring the huge bags on aircraft taking up all the space. i have no problem with airlines making them check it in
there are pretty clear standards for libel even if you can't afford a lawyer, its not that hard to prepare for an initial hearing and ask for summary judgement for it to be dismissed. of course that would mean that you tried to go through BA to find your luggage and they failed and didn't compensate you and whatever.
every airline loses luggage and has rules on how much they will reimburse you
yes it sucks, but it happens to every airline every day. this is like the idiots who switch wireless carriers every week because of some perceived slight in customer service or they can't get 10 bars at home 24x7
Android 6 is Pepsi by then its going to be a new generation of people using it who are now kids, and everyone knows that Pepsi is the Choice of a new Generation
if SIP did this before SAIC made this for the CIA then there is nothing to worry about since its prior art this work was originally created for the CIA many years ago when peer to peer video was not obvious
i'm a huge fan of their products but i'll be the first one to say they borrow and copy like Microsoft did in the 80's and 90's same with facetime, the court decided that apple used someone's work without paying. most likely they even had email evidence saying to engineer facetime this way and face the consequences later. the tech is real software that a government contractor developed many years ago and that people took with them to a new company
if the work is so easy and obvious apple should have no problem coding a peer to peer video solution in such a way as to invent a different way to do it. with all their money it should be no big deal to hire a few engineers to do it
issue is not the wood, but the smaller plants that catch on fire first in case of lightning or arson and allow the fire to grow. the trees are the last to catch on fire
but some of the crazy greenies sue the idea of controlled burns out of existence and its now illegal
Some people can't seem to understand that. There are lots of possible career fields outside of computers and since the iPad is more than a calculator it's awesome for people to discover how things work and what else is out there in the world
there are lots of online conferencing services out there that are cheaper than paying for an "enterprise" solution of buying your own hardware. embedding it into applications people use will make sharing data easier during calls
happens with everything. new product/service comes out and people are first willing to pay a premium. a few years later once everyone uses it people start looking to save money since its now a commodity
same with smartphones. the cheapo ones are more than good enough for most people so there is no reason to buy the newest iphone or galaxy s4
i'm planning to keep my iphone 5 for 3-4 years and move to t-mobile to save money. t-mobile gets this. AT&T and Verizon are trying to fight for the customers willing to pay cash for lots of data and new phones every year. sprint is screwed
yep told my oldest kid that if he wants some $30 mario game for his he has to finish some online math courses before school starts so he's now playing on the ipad a lot more than the 3ds and i'm more than willing to buy games for $.99 without a second though
so when are the hurricanes finally going to become more powerful? i've been hearing this for years. the year of Katrina everyone predicted a horrific season for the next year, and it was a dud. same with sandy last year. so far the reality is that this year is a slow hurricane year.
asia has been getting hit by typhoons with horrific death tolls as far as i can remember.

people need to learn how to pack fragile objects
no one is going to take special care for your one package and make the plane late.
he tweeted it 7:57pm. in england its the middle of the night
in the US people are relaxing with families
this will really turn me off from flying BA because they didn't respond to a tweet at night

because of this one tweet. it opened my mind to how evil this company is burning customers' luggage for the fun of it
thank you thank you thank you

sounds like classic federal government
have a site full of good info but don't tell anyone about it so no one knows about it

Of course there was a Jesus. The non-Greek name is Joshua which was a common name in that part of the world for hundreds of years before him
native americans used to do controlled burns
issue is not the wood, but the smaller plants that catch on fire first in case of lightning or arson and allow the fire to grow. the trees are the last to catch on fire
but some of the crazy greenies sue the idea of controlled burns out of existence and its now illegal
no way
no one is going to believe it though since you need something simple for people to blame everything on
wall street, looking for oil
what about any math heavy job?
they are always looking for quants from what i hear

what part of social media marketing don't you understand?

parents like myself don't want my kid playing in 3D so its not a feature loss
except for the part where they warm the river waters to the point of killing a lot of the life in there
