And yet, the GP gave links, whereas you just provided your anonymous assertion that he was wrong. Where is your link to an analysis showing that CA is a net receiver of federal largesse?
One problem with moving all of the CA port traffic to OR or WA is that the infrastructure to get stuff out of OR and WA is nowhere near the levels of that coming out of CA. There would need to be massive expenditures on rail and/or highways to make it work.
There's a lot of viable, practical uses for something like the Kinect - such as surgeons needing to use a computer with bloodied hands. If they don't have to touch equipment, there's no risk of contamination.
That's funny, I heard in some third world countries, surgeons wash their hands! Can you believe the barbarity?
Moreover, the advent of LibreOffice has made Kinect the only relevant product sold by Microsoft. Isn't it about time they skip all their other products and focus on Kinect, only?
Yes, because everyone is exactly like you. While all children got that self-esteem building in elementary school, it turns out it was all a lie, except for you. You are the one true, special snowflake in the world.
That's why it's better to be a fat nerd instead of a skinny nerd. Sure, the fat nerd might only be touching manboobs, but that's better than not touching any boobs.
Look, I'm sorry you had a traffic accident, but your corner case bullshit is not the most pressing concern for 99.44% of the people buying a cell phone.
When Sen. X used his family life and 'typical American values' as part of his sales pitch to the electorate, it's most certainly relevant if he beds down with his wife and a few Jugalos.
Just like it's relevant when a politician runs on closing Gitmo and says "oops, sorry, can't do that".
I remain skeptical. I'm a regular FB poster, and not even FB can target ads to me that I care about. I'm a married man so I get ads about meeting women and ovulation tests.
So you can find a mistress and not rawdog her while she's likely to get pregnant? Makes sense to me.
I live in Vancouver and I've just finished a big house renovation, so I get ads for extended-stay suites IN Vancouver. Where's this big 'tracking' conspiracy if not even the mothership can get it right?
That's just an issue of timing. While you were doing the renovation, it's likely you would need to stay for a week or three while you had no kitchen, no running water, etc, etc.
And don't forget about that teacher that was fired because of a picture of her online drinking out of a red plastic cup, lord knows what she was actually drinking, but she was ultimately fired because of the picture.
The only helpful story I found with teh Googols was quite different than the one you present. I found another case that is a little closer to what you cite, but still pretty far from it. (There is no red Solo cup for example). And there is some conjecture that a friend or coworker screwed her.
So is the submitter with the description "has taken to yelling at journalists reporting about social networks". What are we? 12? We can no longer use the word 'criticizing' instead of 'yelling at'??? Was he speaking too loudly in the lecture?
You should read instead of just looking at the pictures. "Yelling" was the reporter's own description, and there was no lecture involved; he called Moglen on the phone.
Wow. You berate GP for missing the reporter's description of Moglen's behaviour as 'yelling', yet you complete miss the gender of the reporter. Pot, kettle, black.

Wait, where did you find a web browser that doesn't have spellcheck?
It's some new shit called 'Mosaic'.
I dunno. I live on the east coast of the US, and most of my produce has stickers indicating it came from South America.

To be fair though, that map and the text on which it is based date back to 1981.
Where are you going to put your new secret lair if you flood the old one with water to make power?

Waving my arms in the air? I just don't care...
I'm not sure which is worse: all of our government are whores, or all of our government are cheap whores.
I read that as: US Research Open Access only in Perl
Oh, great, so while everyone can access it, nobody will be able to read and understand what they're looking at.
(It was the last year I touched a boob.)

"Obama did it, so it's ok"?
That's a compelling argument.

I'll give Jimmy the benefit of the doubt here that he truly is just really busy.
Exactly. Panhandling and creating a society of tin pot dictators are NOT part time jobs.
Why would anyone want to turn their iPad into a bright yellow Toughbook?
It's hard to stand out at starbucks amongst all of the other iPads.

As evidence that your are boring, consider the fact that you spend a good portion of your life on Slashdot.

Politicians generally don't lose their jobs as a result of a loss of privacy per se. They lose their jobs when some private behaviour shows them to be a public hypocrite.
There is plenty of creativity in journalism. In the US, journos exhibit creativity when they try to create two sides out of a one sided issue, conjures up non existent reasons for an illegal war, or print outright works of fiction as fact.

Did they properly consult the AD&D chart for character age? I show INT and especially WIS increasing over time.
That's why WotC is releasing 5th ed., to fix that glaring mistake.
If it's that much of an issue (I doubt it) then buy a CB. ~$50, no monthly fees, and talk directly to the cops.
