side of the aisle did when their guy was not in the top position? It seems to me that if you go back years and years all you see is that the opposition party does their best to undermine the guy at the top when he is not theirs. Hell, even when he is theirs they do it. Obama had two years of Democrat majorities and he got what? Oh, that's right, used as a puppet by his own party.
He also won't get work done unless he decides to lead. Trouble is, sometime earlier this year he went back into campaign mode. In other words, he gave up being President Obama and became candidate Obama. Those two job titles have conflicting objectives.
Sorry, but I blame Obama first. He should be more focused on fixing things but instead is more focused on how any decision he makes effects his reelection. He doesn't give a rats ass about anything other than that.
is that they are using it in a way which I hope to see spread across the board.
I want my laptop to be light, relatively fast, and have long battery life. Yet at the same time I want some real storage, a dvd/blu burner, and really strong graphics abilities so if I want to game I don't feel as if I need a separate machine. The Sony docking station has its own graphics chipset which is much more powerful than the laptop's built in system. Not only does it provide the ability to game because of the external chipset you can also hook up three monitors to the laptop.
So the best of both worlds, fully portable light weight power and when at home depending on docking station you buy you could have a machine capable of gaming or doing real graphics work.
If this is how Thunderbolt plays out I am all for it. The one area Apple has seriously been lacking in laptops is docking stations.
You can be damn sure the rules from all the various contracts signed by the city had to be implemented and I would not doubt some had to be coded directly instead of relying on a table. I have seen some convoluted attendance rules when working for a rent-a-cop agency where we managed formerly city employees. For most rules you can simply make a simple table, others had so many odd conditions that it was far easier to code a specific routine.
quit blaming Amazon and their "unfair" tax liability.
Did Amazon kill Blockbuster? No, technology did and a better competitor did. Same thing with local CD and book shops. Most locals don't go out of business with mail order companies, even those the size of Amazon. They go out of business because of other local competitors, their location became a hindrance, or their customers moved. Even companies like Wal-Mart didn't kill mom and pops, most mom and pops were killed by the first gen big box stores and more importantly they were killed by cars. Yeah, the widespread use of cars allowed people to not be trapped by local stores. Same goes for any other technology, now I can download my book. How is the local store supposed to compete with that? A kiosk can do it
What is amazing is you rant against Amazon and then notice the "use tax" side of the issue, which is, if your customers are not honest somehow its your fault. As in - Amazon is at fault for buyers through their website not adhering to the law.
No what California is saying, screw the law about interstate taxation and rulings related to it, we plan to intimidate companies into paying the tax - which isn't really what is going on here... What is really going on is...
We are dumb asses who promised our supporters to the point we cannot pay up and damn if we don't need new tax revenue, would you please become the bogeyman and take the blame for collecting taxes our residents would never support if we did it directly.
Needless to say, this is all based on the typical bogus math politicians use which always underestimate costs and overestimate revenues gained.
I would have opened it up to a higher level than 20, maybe as far as 60. It does need the social interaction of being allowed to join guilds. I could see a restriction in that you could not help form one, that would prevent people just starting trials to make new guilds. As for other limitations, let them buy off the AH and disallow monetary and item trades to other characters. Its not like the 14 or 15 bucks a month will break anyone's bank, but I don't think 20 levels is enough to hook new players. You barely get to see the game or experience your class.
I played WOW off and on for many years, finally calling it quits with the new expansion and its emphasis on making their arena games less of a joke (hence the high health pools but high cost to heal them - basically no quick kills but no endless fights either).
Far too many programmers want to be "game programmers". All will tell themselves, that will not happen to me. There still seems to be something romantic/cool about game programming in the heads of younger programmers. I tend to categorize it under the "I could do that better, those people are such idiots, just wait until I show them" attitude.
First I would never suggest organizing under a union, especially not professional level skills. All you will end up with is no position anyone could ever want. You will end up working with those very same dummies that many decry when they use large software packages (games or not) and realize there is no way that these people could ever be forced to change.
It comes down to this, if the treatment was not enough to warrant actually leaving the job then it obviously wasn't as bad as they made it out to be. The whole idea that he could not get a job to replace it only means two things, he was in the wrong field or wrong area. Obviously the alternatives were not to his liking. I have had friends work two manual jobs while trying to get back into programming.
Perhaps they can zone them out next, just like minorities are zoned out of most of the good areas of San Fransisco.
So basically what we have is your typical people in power mindset, I was going to say liberal but conservatives in power do it to, they will all be for freedoms they want (in the case of this city same sex marriages) but damn if you dare buy Spot in a local store, why that is inhumane. I am surprised you can't buy dogs to eat in SF but you can buy live fish and poultry. What is that? Are laws based on ick factor?
Write all the blogs you want and it won't change the facts.
Firefox is giving up a market because some of the their people have an attitude. An attitude which screams, if you don't like it your the one who is wrong.
Be honest, if your not going to try there are many others who will and then you can keep pouting and stamping your feet all the while wondering why other browsers are taken more seriously. You can also explain to other Open source developers why you decided to give the rest a bad name.
is not exactly what I would consider a statement to operate under. This really is coming off as "screw them business people, if they don't like we can take a hike - err... wait a minute"
Really, what is the point of Firefox anymore? Originally I thought we were trying to escape the bloat that Mozilla became, now it seems to be a game of one upping in a battle most of us don't give a rats ass about.
How about instead of declaring what your not you fix what you are? Get off this gimmick of new release numbers. Get off this idea of who you don't serve. Just make the best damn browser you can and quit adding features or changing things before addressing the problems people tell you have.
Whats next, we are not for pissy users who don't agree with us?
OK, I read the article and searched google. How is a city in Israel somehow part of the North Atlantic? I would be more interested in how the whale got that far into the Med without being spotted.
As for the algae, if ships are making the passage they are doing the same thing they did to the great lakes, bringing lifeforms across that have no natural enemies to an environment similar to the one they left. I really doubt the algae is flowing from the Pacific to the Atlantic, I am more sure its because of the ships passing through the area. Either pumping out their bilge water or barnacles and other assorted life attached to the hulls coming off.
and cover for each other. According to a local Atlanta radio host he watched as one of the officers took an iPod and other items then left the area. When he tried to confront them they said he had gone home or such. In other words, if they want stuff they know to cover each other and intimidate the flying public with arrest.
The current rage with tablets is probably going to see the same ascendance and then drop of in numbers as the next attempt to fill the need arises. Netbooks for me were too crammed in screen space to be truly useful. Tablets are just to interface locked. By that I mean I need to type and typing for any period of time on a glass face just isn't enjoyable. So I figure they will merge eventually. Most everyone I know has a BT keyboard for their iPad; by most everyone I know I mean those who bring them to work; because while you can do a lot with them creating new content is not one of the things that is easy.
So touch screen netbooks are most likely next. Combine the best features of both. Until you can get accurate voice entry of text I don't see an easy way to overcome the need to enter data of that form and the glass surface is not conducive to that.
What gets me about tablets is that I have yet to find one that is semi useful outdoors. Solve that and then you will have something. Right now they are geek toys which thousands of geeks are doing their best to come up with applications to justify their fascination. Too many adaptations come across as a kludge. That is not to say there are not some unique and truly enjoyable apps, its just saying that tablets are still too much of a compromise as netbooks were.
So next gen - something along the lines of a touch screen enabled MBA. The size is right and the functionality is much higher than a tablet or netbook by themselves.
He is too much of a politician to sign a bill like this TILL HIS NEXT TERM.
Just like gay marriage/DOMA he ain't got balls when they might get whacked. He ain't about to do anything controversial prior to 2012. Already he is playing games with troops in Afghanistan to shore up his base and suddenly oil is leaking out of our holdings because.... really this guy really irks me. He doesn't lead, he pontificates then takes credit for someone else doing the work. The to top it off with the responsibility dodge king named Reid who for two years running has refused to submit a budget to the Senate to be debated against any produced by the House.
Figure it this way, if he should get elected to a second term your going to see the real Obama, especially after the 2014 election. He already started talking up controversial issues AFTER losing the House because he could pretend it was the eveeel Republicans who were blocking all his great and fair ideas, discounting the fact for two years Pelosi and Reid did nothing to move anything they didn't want, they simply used Obama's name to slam through anything they wanted and his highness signed off on in taking credit where he thought it worthwhile.
I am all for legalization and releasing all non-violent possession criminals from jail, expunging the charge from their records at the same time. If they are going to keep cigarettes legal and alcohol legal where is their excuse or marijuana?
First the article title sucks and the summary is worse.
They are not going out of business, not yet at least. They are going to stop producing the roadster which had a very limited market and work on getting their sedan out.
As to the person I am replying too, it is not the big American three that are at fault, as far as I can tell each continent it quite adept at producing and buying gas guzzlers. In fact while the average person in Europe might be keen on efficient small cars Europe is the land of gas guzzling exotics. I guess the little people should be happy with their itty bitty cars while the rich and powerful blissfully ignore any such concerns.
Don't pile accolades on Tesla, they have yet to prove they can deliver this sedan and have a sustainable business models. All the dreams in the world amount to nothing if they don't come to fruition. Just because someone claims they can solve the problems of the world does not excuse them from actually delivering. Seems to me that vaporware is very common in most industries and far too many investor's lose their shirts over well executed glossy presentations.
Sorry, but there are already enough designs out there that other than slapping an Apple logo on it what can they do in TVs that has not been done? Aluminum - already done, all black, well that is everywhere, white? ewww?
Throw in the low margins and just how much of an idiot fanboi market do they think they can exploit? I cannot imagine anything less than 40+ would have a margin sufficient to matter. Do they really think GoogleTV/etc is such a threat? After seeing their lock in/lock down attempts with the iOs market the last thing I want to do be stuck with one provider for entertainment. Sorry, but my blu-ray player can already connect to the net and has selections for HULU and NetFlix and it does all of this up to 1080p when playing discs locally - something Apple TV cannot do.
Give me an Apple Tv device that has Blu-Ray, can be a DVR, and plays movies from anyone easily, then I might have a place for them in my living room. As a TV? Really, what can they offer other than a new remote control that still doesn't control my receiver, dvr, etc? I suppose they could make a real universal remote that actually works and doesn't scream dork.
Re-brand a TV someone else makes. I just don't see it. Maybe they will, I know people who buy anything with the logo on it. Just like I know Sony only people. Never understood blind brand faith but I see it. Count me out, I don't need a TV that will carry a premium cost for no reason other than a logo.
Because it sounds like one, look my app is rated very well on both markets, which means you should really buy i, but first I need to discover a round about means to get free advertisement. So lets start a flame war
There are people pissing away $150 on their phones who stand around and ask where their free care is. So whats your point?
Nothing lasts forever, but damn if people don't seem to put their own personal health at the bottom of life's priorities. Seems to me most are concerned with a flashy car, smart phone, high fashion, and watching reality tv on their widescreens.
Ask them to pay for their health care and they scream and bitch or reply with hyperbole, like "it won't last forever"
My mother has been diabetic for thirty plus years. Currently she uses a pump which has a sensor system which can partially measure her glucose level. It is not terribly accurate and has to be calibrated a lot. She is still required to test her blood sugar levels a few times a day as she is NOT allowed to rely on the sensor readings for accuracy. If she gets very low at night it beeps then eventually vibrates. So it can at least determine relative levels of glucose and report the direction its going but they are not convenient. The sensor has to be changed every three days (they are not cheap) and there is a decent failure rate.
So what am I getting at. I like the direction this is going and I do not believe it will make a nation of shut ins or have families feel as if they can ignore their elders. If they are going to ignore their elders (parents) then they will regardless of what technology does. If anything this might help keep them in contact more often because like the article states you can be told if mom took her medicine, if she is eating regularly. I would not mind a monitoring system which could alert on emergencies because that is the real point of all this monitoring - we cannot be there 24x7 but machines can.
I would certainly be willing to pay for monitoring of my parents health so that emergency persons can be sent when the need arises. Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) is not something you can recover from unless you catch it quickly. My mother can stay conscious with blood sugar levels in the 40s but when it gets below 60 she acts "silly drunk" and may not realize the trouble she is in. At the same time 500+ in her can be fine but it should be noted because in diabetes one common thing I have found is far too many doctors don't agree on causes or when something is a problem, let alone how to always fix it.
More monitoring options will add more years of good living. Now this opens up the next problem, paying for all these years. For some of us giving up the little things won't be hard for the big things in life.

I don't mind the fact he submits so many stories it does beg the question, why do so many of his submissions make it to front page?
that is what they have done wrong.
