Or... and this may sound zany but hear me out. Maybe 51% of people did a risk/benefit analysis and decided that giving someone there password was actually beneficial for them.
Not possible. Only people who use devices in exactly the same manner as that proscribed by a/. nerd can be beneficial. (No wireless, less space than a Nomad...)
I found it interesting that his break occurred just an episode or two prior to some big moment he had been anticipating since the inception of the comic. If he comes back, I hope he does it before I forget about it.
None of those complaints addressed the original claims: commercial free stations that started playing commercials.
And while the trucking company ads can get annoying, I'd be willing to bet a huge proportion of truckers have Sirus and/or XM in the cab (having been one myself).
I think you are technically correct (the best kind of correct, btw), but any small-ish publisher is likely to get ground into bits by the inevitable lawsuit. Even if the lawsuit is a farce, attorney's fees and other costs of litigation are prohibitive.
Not necessarily a burden on Apple. However, visibly better apps and a better way to find them makes iOS devices more attractive to consumers. 'Supplementary goods' is the term I recall from college. (Ok, it was a university, but just barely).
Actually, the argument could be made that a customer buys the 'ecosystem', making the market and the device one and the same. Point remains: improve app store, improve sales.
The mating call of the celibate slashdotter. Your 'solutions' provide none except for a few corner cases. Even if 100,000 or a million people are interested, that's a drop in the bucket compared to the number of active phones out there.
Thank God, a voice of reason in this discussion. Until this point, all I saw was a bunch of oldsters bemoaning their inability to look at gauges.
Motorcyclists are deathly afraid of technology. Aren't a substantial number of bikes still sold with carbs? Drum brakes? Air cooling? (And before anyone gets on my ass, of the five most recent bikes I've acquired, the newest is an '83. so it's not like I can't adjust a carb or a points gap. But I also know how to adjust the ABS sensor gap on my BMW.)
These people bitching about polyca probably bitched about moving away from cork linings as well (if they weren't too busy complaining about helmets in general). Yeah, I like my waxed cotton jacket. I also like my modern textile jacket./rant
Must vary by situation. In the two agencies in which I've contracted, the bottleneck wasn't contractors, it was the federal management. Layers upon layers upon ungodly layers of ignorant, micromanaging Federal 'management'.

But will it run Crysis?
Orange is the best color.
It's the maintenance man. He knows I like orange.
Also, and on-topic, Deus Ex is a must-play game.
Came to instigate a reinstallation. Saw that I was beaten to it. Left satisfied.
Everytime someone mentions Deus Ex, someone reinstalls Deus Ex
C'mon, to a Yuropeen, Ohio and California are exactly the same thing, but Scotland and England are totally different.
All that hockey hullabaloo and that bitch Anne Murray too!

The rate increases when looking only at the subset of the population who post as AC.
I found another source that put the average at 2700 in 2009. So saying a 2400 sq ft home is huge is like saying, "My six-inch penis is huge".
It is, if you are measuring the radius.
And there was much rejoicing.

Other than the rebroadcasted major market channels KIIS and Z100 on channels 11 and 12, what music channels are playing commercials?
Channel 76 and below (except 11/12) are all still commercial free. I can't speak for 77-79 (kids), and some of the 140+ Latino channels, but...
What music channels, exactly, are playing commercials on XM?
Stop screwing up the nerdrage with pointless facts.

He's still in lala land? I was hoping that his twitter reemergence a few months ago meant he was on the mend, but his subsequent return to silence...
If I was a paid government shill, I wouldn't be taking public transport to work everyday.
You clearly don't live in the DC area. The metro is packed with government shills during the work week.
You dont need a citation, you just need common sense, and being able to think about you read
Thank you Jenny McCarthy.
And Europeans know very well about slavery and exploitation. They were the masters of it at the time.
The Americans didn't invent it from whole cloth.
What is it with you Walter? Not everything is about fucking Vietnam!

Damnit, you thought about users instead of yourself. That sort of attitude is not appreciated here.
Me, me, me, Me, Me, Me, ME, ME, ME, ME!!!!!!

Other people; they matter.

John Goodman? Hehe.
As a result of this debacle, MD changed to a two party consent state.
Looks like it's Ttuesday.
Seeing as how we don't know how magnets work, I'm not sure we should add them to the mix.
