Mine is in the same ballpark ($36, but $17 of it is taxes/fees), but I don't get a lot of telemarketers (guessing because it's unlisted) and the good ol' Western Electric phones work when the power is out.
Suspiciously, he started exercising after someone sent around a link to a study saying that the obese and smokers cost the health insurance less because they die a lot earlier;
so he lost weight in order to live longer and become a greater financial burden in the future?
I have enough perfectly good machines already. Some of them are even Macs running OS X, just not the Intel versions required for the iPhone SDK. I don't buy a new computers every year or so like some geeks (newest machine is about 5 years old). I also don't want to pay the $99 for the 'privilege' of developing for the iPhone either. I have other things to spend my money on.
If their products soak up CO2, will they be able to sell the carbon credits? Or will it be just the end users of the product? Hmmm...pave the planet and get rich!!!!!
How is efficiency being measured in these processes? I'm sure the cement manufacturers would to love to see that improved since it would reduce their energy bills.
Sometimes the Pre's location service thinks I'm in the middle of Dallas, TX. The trouble is, that's several hundred miles away. WTF is the deal with that?
Palm is collecting application and OS crash logs and sending them back presumably for someone on their software QA team to track down and fix bugs. Is this really that much different than Mozilla's feedback agent?
When was the last time that you played around with a Pre? The update to WebOS 1.1.0 improved the UI speed quite a bit. I don't think Foxconn had much quality control in place for some of the early production units. I think a non-slider version would probably have been a better device. Palm apparently has one in the works. Maybe it will be introduced after Verizon gets the Pre....
A nice thing about the WebOS SDK is that the developer doesn't have to buy anything to develop for the Pre. One thing that turned me away from getting an iPhone is that I would have to buy a Mac if I wanted to develop for it.
Did you stop reading at the first instance of "command line"? The Eclipse plugin that provides a GUI interface to those steps was mentioned in the next sentence. The great thing about WebOS and its SDK is that it is built using open source tools - the emulator is just VirtualBox running an x86 version of WebOS. You aren't tied to having to buy a Mac for development and then shelling out another $99 if you want to publish something. Since the core of it is just an ARM based Debian distribution, people are using existing Debian software or developing 'headless' apps using their *nix skills. It's a nice low cost way of being able to develop software for a platform.
When the webkit developers provide support for WebGL, WebOS developers will be able to take advantage of the 3D hardware in the phone. Hopefully, Palm will also expand the SDK to allow people to write their own Mojo services.
Now, when our generation gets to "a certain age" (which I'm closer to than y'all, having passed 40)... maybe we'll be more willing to crowdsource our heart rhythm.
as another member of the "over 40" group, I'd have to say "No" to that idea.
No really, please do, as in the end your just betting against the American worker.
Like the ones that think that buying lottery tickets is a good way to make money? Especially the idiots who give their tickets to convenience store clerks and ask what they've won.
That's assuming that someone sets up a scheduler to actually do these checkups. When my Dad has his pacemaker put in, he was supposed to go back to the hospital every few months to have the data the device was collecting downloaded and the battery checked. He had it for at least a year or two and it was never checked. Someone at the hospital forgot to enter it into a database. He had a checkup with his cardiologist during that time too and the doctor never asked about it.
Cash has a place. Do you write a check to a kid to mow your lawn, buy something at a yard sale, or when giving a random tip? Cash can be easy to manage too if one is using the 'envelope system' for household budgeting - you can't accidentally spend more than you've decided at the outset because when the envelope is empty, you're done for that pay period. This is important if one has a spouse that as the "I have a checkbook/debit card, so that means I can buy w/o thinking" mindset.
If the 'cash only' businesses are too cheap to pay for a card reader and the associated transaction charges, they are also probably too cheap to want to pay bank charges for check deposits. Although there are some costs to taking cash (employee theft and possibly a need for an armored car pickup for bank deposits), it's easy to quickly set up shop (ex: flea markets). Some cash only businesses take advantage of some people who prefer cards by installing ATMs at their location and get a cut of the ATM fees.
I know that a bulkhead can be removed between the 1st two bays to make a longer internal bay which may be able to carry the MOP, but according to this, it appears that it is not allowed under the START I treaty since it would also make the aircraft capable of carrying nuclear armed cruise missiles.
I don't dislike SUVs because they are tall. I generally dislike them because they are a hazard to anyone that they hit and they are difficult to see around when having to follow one on the road. Sure, it's the same problem with trucks and vans, but they are generally used for the purpose for which they are designed (except for pickup trucks - then it's often a commuter vehicle for a guy who wants to keep in touch with his rural heritage). I think I've read that 80% or more of SUVs are never used to actually go off road or where a 4x4 would be needed and the popularity of them drove up the cost for the people who actually do use them for something other than a "macho station wagon".
How much of our stupid "stimilus" went to paving roads? $780 billion or something? Most used improperly or hastily? Most not fixing the worse of the bridges and problems?
Nope. Only $27.5 billion when for bridge and highway projects. The bridges and roads with the worst problems need a lot of planning, so they weren't "shovel ready" projects that could be started right away like the administration wanted.

screaming at someone isn't what one would expect in a professional environment, but at least no chairs were thrown.
Mine is in the same ballpark ($36, but $17 of it is taxes/fees), but I don't get a lot of telemarketers (guessing because it's unlisted) and the good ol' Western Electric phones work when the power is out.
it's probably a reference to the scene where the Joker is burning a giant pile of money.
so he lost weight in order to live longer and become a greater financial burden in the future?

FWIW, Palm also suggests getting this plug-in for eclipse when using their plug-in for the WebOS SDK.

Sometimes the Pre's location service thinks I'm in the middle of Dallas, TX. The trouble is, that's several hundred miles away. WTF is the deal with that?
Roaming (data or voice) can be turned off on the Pre without hacking. It's on the Preferences screen for the dialer app.
what does it include if location services and the GPS are set to off?
But if he did want to modify the FOSS software on the Pre, he could just download them from here: http://opensource.palm.com/

That's the 2nd time in a week that I've heard of someone waking up during hip replacement surgery.
as another member of the "over 40" group, I'd have to say "No" to that idea.
Hell, most of their surgical instruments look like something out of a carpenters shop, so this isn't surprising.

What deer hunters are you referring to? I've never heard of people doing that in the US.
