USPS is a great example. If we freed the postal mechanism from the government, plenty of people would be without service because it wouldnt be cost efficient.
though I do agree that the government often times is highly wasteful, it need not be. You're complaining about the attributes of OUR government, not about what a government COULD be.
well thanks for sharing your extremely rare personal experiences. I'm glad you live in some urban environment where you can avoid being sensitive to the price of gas.
Too bad that everyone else is orders of magnitude more sensitive than you. Thanks for wasting our time.
but maybe you don't like to hear that, so maybe its about how the streets feel dangerous, and television makes the streets feel dangerous. probably about how television, movies, and games make it "seem cool to be in a gang." It might have something to do with very little adult guidance. It might have to do with being poor, living in the ghetto, and having nothing and nothing to do. it might be that a gang provides you with the family you never had. it might be that you can't make decisions correctly and need help.
all of these reasons support "Garbage in Garbage Out" but also show that music is far from the only or most important factor. The parent's parent fails to realize that people might be attracted to the music precisely because they are illiterate or already have fantasies of rape, murder, or general mayhem. It's quite possible that the music represents and outlet, not an input
well seing as how you're in the minority of voters (he did after all win a majority of constituents (voters)), he is reppin his district. Unfortunately for you the district supports policies that you dislike.
Sorry dood. LOTS of people CAN hear a REAL difference between typical consumer gear and high end audio.
Sure a lot of high end stuff (esp super high end) is hard to distinguish, but high end vs consumer IS an audible difference for a not-insignificant percentage of the population.
Especially when it comes to imaging. This is something that can be easily demonstratd with some high quality recording. Particularly Focal demo cd's. There are songs that have things, for example, liek the lead singer slight off center, and have the cymbals imaged higher (physically). On consumer gear this will sound like the singer is in the center and at the same height as the symbals. Play the same track back on a better setup (same environment) and you will hear what the recording actually contains.
well maybe you won't, but I will, and so will many of my friends.
a lot of the benefit of high end audio comes from training yourself to recognize such subtleties. Its akin to a jeweler and a consumer. The consumer buys a poor quality stone and is happy, but the jeweler comes along, and through his training, is able to recognize the defects.
Maybe those defects dont matter to you, and thats fine, but for me it does matter:)
you might want to consider that creative, in the pro market, IS e-mu. And you'd be hard pressed to argue that anything M-Audio is better than e-mu's cards.
8800GTX doesnt use G92 proc, only the 8800GT and 8800GTS 512mb do (at least from 8000 series).
790i has a great memory controller with supremely low latencies and supports ESA. It does have actual real differences over the 680i. DDR3 isnt exactly Ho-hum since it IS the future...when that arrives is a good question but it's hard to argue with the bandwidth and latencies that you can get from ddr3
New nvidia graphics silicon is coming in the summer, right after amd throws down with their own.
perhaps because the government is in the best position to most effectively do something about it?
also, the mandate for the government to solve problems, typically comes FROM THE VOTERS, via the election process. Sure back in the 1700's the government didnt have a mandate concerning retirement, but through the "will of the voters" the mandate was made.
the response I would give you is "i am doing something, myself, about it by voting for things that will effect this change"
Half life is not on mac because Valve thinks that there should be few platforms that they have to develop on. Im sure the typical, "there isnt any money in porting/making games for mac," had something to do with it, but the fine folks at Valve seem to think that multiple platforms are a waste, which is motivated by their bottom line. They want to convince the market that we need PC/Xbox only; this can easily be seen by the horrible travesty which is Orange Box for PS3.
Yeah, most people aren't such victims that they think they are. Do something, like get out of the way = problem solved.
The real question here is, how and when are the police going to use this? Are they going to use it against people that are just part of a speedy flow of traffic, and happen to be "too close". I suppose they need this though, because what other evidence can they present to support that you where actually tailgating.
The parent doesnt say WHY the people are wearing the shirt, so ANY explanation is speculation. So why is my speculation any less valid than the parents implications?
Then you just exclude Ubuntu from blame "well the debian people should be punished for reacting to whatever negative thing ubunutu did to them....nevermind that ubuntu did anything".
actually that proves your point in no way. perhapst the animosity comes from ubuntu not respecting debian, and the fuck ubuntu shirts are just responses.

you know like how EVERY other pay for wifi service works.

umm hello, i can tell you from first hand experience that it IS tap water, but it gets chemically treated and then reverse osmosis filtered.
so its not like its the same as tap water.
hahahhahahahha thanks man :)

Wow, thats not extreme or anything. I mean I can totally think of millions of reasons why you would need this.

carbon brake rotors are used to reduce mass. primarily. not only do they significantly reduce unsprung weight but also rotating mass.
what hole?
i doubt apple will make an ultra portable.
:(
i agree that i want as little weight as possible, however getting low weight always comes at huge cost it seems
