No why are you using the 2001 persons per household number, why aren't you using 2010 persons per household. Major mistake as it makes your numbers meaningless.
I'll definitely agree with that, but if it hadn't been Apple it would have been somebody else. Mp3's were the future regardless of how hard the recording industry tried to kill it with DRM.
Steve Jobs gave 50 million to Stanford Medical (granted they were treating his cancer) and an unsubstantiated amount to Bono's Aid's research charity (probably why you all got U2's album shoved onto your phones).
Digital music was well on it's way before apple produced the iPod. And let's not forget the LG Prada which came out almost a year before the iPhone, it was the first phone with a capacitive touchscreen and that form factor.
>I would argue that the very existence of a "medallion" that costs more than the filing fee is evidence of collusion between the taxi authority and the taxi's
And that in now way is proof. The medallion system started in NYC due to public outcry. That is fact, not this fairy-tail taxi cartel.
It is also fact that Uber has zero respect for our laws, and that alone should warrant action.
NO The medallion system is NOT a sign of a taxi cartel. It was created cuz there were too many fucking cabs. stop with the conspiracy. Uber breaks the law. PERIOD. They are competing unfairly.
Working in violation of the law does not make you a good business.
So those 8 may or may not be fake (one in particular looks to be a possibly valid review, but hard to know). Why were the other 9 removed as well. Funny that ALL his bad reviews were removed when only 8 are actionable. (but you know the obviously fake good review stays up. Hard for a California construction company to get a valid review from some kid in Princeton, NJ.)
But it's obviously not. There are several bad reviews from real accounts (friends more then 1 review). He is hurting his case by lumping all of them together. Funny that he had yelp remove every bad review not just the suspect ones. But somehow he got a 5 star review from some kid in NJ, makes me think this guy has been buying a few good reviews.
How can you tell? Just because the plaintiff says so? Some of those reviews look legit and yes a few look fake. I notice he doesn't complain about the obviously fake good reviews (how does a company in Cali get a positive review from a teen in New Jersey.)
I like how he got Yelp to remove EVERY bad review, and some of those are very obvioulsy not fake.
I know we all like to hate yelp but this guy really seems to be gaming the system.
Of course they can claim copyright on it. Just because Sun allowed people to use it without licensing does not mean it was not covered by copyright. Jesus on a fucking stick, what the hell are you doing on Slashdot if you don't understand the barest basics of copyright. It's not like copyright hasn't been a constant subject since day one.
You seem to have this unwarranted trust in human nature. 1 Where will they go? to some unknown upstart? That goes counter the fact that people in general hate change. No I think the majority would continue to use Google. It is very hard to change societies momentum. Think about it, what term do we use to talk about searching the internet? What companies name has become a verb? And you think people will just happily move off to another search engine, I got news for you. Google's results will continue to get worse as they spend more and more effort on monetizing what they do, but the majority of people will not stop using them.
It's not that anyone stole anything. It's that tax revenue is not enough to support spending. Heck they don't even have to increase taxes to fix this. They just need their citizens to actually pay their taxes.
pretty sure it's not.
There have been many fringe currencies. From company chits to Disney Dollars, there have been many fringe currencies throughout history, It's just that the term had yet to be coined.

Why do you live an hour away from where you have to commute 5 days a week? that's just wasteful in every sense.
Hmm, my humor seems to only work on me.
I'll definitely agree with that, but if it hadn't been Apple it would have been somebody else. Mp3's were the future regardless of how hard the recording industry tried to kill it with DRM.
I did say some look fake.

No, but it probably has a lot to do with what he is doing now.
and retarded not retard.
How about Apple's then.
We tried that with the Articles of Confederation. A weak federal government was found to be a failure.
Hell, it's been the weakness of every country that fought in WW2.
Damn my inablilty to type.
>And that in now way is proof
should be
And that is in no way proof.

Certain consequences yes, It does not protect you from another individual suing you.
Hmm, Kinda like how Apple Music and Apple Computers never had to worry about a trademark battle? Industry lines are not always so defined.

You forgot stability.
