The pipeline would create very very few full time jobs after the initial construction. But thanks for trying. The pipeline also crosses the Ogallala aquifer. The aquifer that supplies water to three quarters of the people in the area. It also supplies 30% of the water used in growing the crops in the region. Considering how good the oil companies are at keeping the oil in the pipes and in the ships, I for one do not trust them near the aquifer.
But I am sorry, please continue with your political talking points.
No, I can see what could happen now. The fact that my monitor gives someone a headache will mean that in the future I will have to buy a headache free monitor that the manufacturers will charge me twice as much for.
I have no issue with someone getting a special monitor for themselves. My issue is the connotation that by me using a regular monitor that I am victimizing someone, somewhere.
Kinda like the whole wifi sickness thing. Lets say someone actually has issues, whats the solution? Everyone else has to shut off their wifi. Do you want a current example? Try letting your kid have peanuts in his school lunch.
Apple is planning on taking on Microsoft and Sony. Lol with what a tablet? There is just no way a tablet alone can take on a dedicated gaming device. The deck is stacked clearly in MS and Sony's favor on that. Lets see dedicated devices do not have the same size constraints, do not have to deal with battery life, do not have to deal with powering a display, do not have to deal with mobility, do not have to deal with sketchy wifi/4g coverage.
I suppose someone will chime in suggesting they mean the Apple TV which could be a valid point, except the market penetration of those are MUCH smaller, and the fact that they do not have any AAA titles that rival the competitors.
Controller or not, there are no Apple devices that compete directly with xbox and ps.
So, someone else might be able to jump onto your phone data when you are tethering... however to do so they need to lug around a big computer tower with a bunch of GPUs plugged in, and only if you use the default password.
I read the article, It said nothing about lugging around a computer filled with GPU. I would be willing to bet my laptop could handle that.
“The app also gives explanations and hints on how to crack a captured WPA handshake using well-known password crackers,” the paper said. “Future releases might also automate the process of capturing and cracking hotspot passwords. As computing power on smart devices is limited, one solution is to involve online password cracking services like CloudCracker, to crack hotspot passwords on-the-fly.”
In fact it sounds as if it may even be feasible without the laptop.
Modded down? No I do not think you should be modded down for your opinion. I just think you are a sheep reacting to knee jerk ideas that people will perish without this policy. Seriously my actual privacy outweights your irrational fears. You cannot take away my rights cause you got scared. Especially when your fears are warrantless.
Sure, the google search term "Bill of rights" should get that for you.
Its in there but you have to be able to read and comprehend it. Maybe the word "Privacy" is not in the document, but it most certainly describes privacy in your right to be free from unreasonable searches. Go re read the 4th mmkay?
Ok, I suppose I might have read your sentence the wrong way. I am just a big propnent for these bike paths. They have turned all of the rail lines in my home city to bike paths. The old rail lines had bridges over all of the major streets, so now all of the bike paths criss cross the city and have almost no actual intersection with the high traffic streets. Also a bonus that most rail lines around here had a max grade of 2.5% so its nice level riding.
I do agree that we should utilize trains more as they are more economical to ship goods. It would be nice for better passenger lines as well. I looked into going to the south east from the mid west via rail. I would have had to go through Washington DC to make it work. Travel time was like three days. Drive time was like a day and a half. Fly time was a few hours. I drove.
They are not being torn up just for bike paths, they have been abandoned by the rail companies, who then allow local municipalities to use the rights of way for bike paths.
Google rails to trails. It is a good project for rail lines that were not worth the upkeep to the railroads. This is not some sort of conspiracy to reduce rail capacity like your post implies.
Ahh, so because you are happy with it, everyone else should just be happy with it too? Get off your high horse, before someone knocks you off of it. Ohh, and get over it.
I have never had an issue installing a printer in Linux. Scanners can occasionally be a pain, but I do not remember it being too difficult.
Nor have I ever needed to know the kernel version when installing via package manager.In fact I cannot recall ever needing to know the kernel version installing outside of the package manager either.
But that is all just some personal experience from the past few years. YMMV probably depending on what you are trying to do with what distro. Which that would be a valid complain, Which distro for which users.
You fail to understand this isn't about me, it is about my customers. I do not want to have to teach Computer 101 to people who have been doing things a certain way for years.
That is a VERY valid complaint, and no telling me to turn in my geek card will not fly here. You want to defend MS's move, then solve the issue of geeks having to reteach everyone else how things work.
What's that there is no easy solution? Then MS's move was ill conceived.

The oil is headed to china anyways, you just want you use American refineries to refine the stuff. Build your own refineries.
I would definitely agree with you. That is SOP for ISPs in the US though.
Interesting. I know it is hit or miss. Do you live anywhere near a decent sized city?
I know you can actually get 50 and 2 in my area if you are willing to pay for it. I know that DSL is offering 24 and 1 in the area as well.
I live in a medium sized city in the midwest. I get 30 and 2 Mbps. It may not be spectacular, but it is adequate.
This is available even outside of town to some extent. If you live in a neighborhood you get it, the farms scattered around, not quite as much.
You are SO correct. I propose a tariff on any goods to bring the cost up to what it would cost to make it here in the states.
You forgot the word Ultimate. That should be in there somewhere lol.

You miss the point. Comparing tablets/phones to dedicated gaming machines is kinda like comparing bicycles to cars.

Pray tell, victim of what exactly? Technology they do not like? My recommendation would be to not use it.

Tell you what, you narrow that down to less then 300 words and we can have a reasonable back and forth. Until then TLDR.

I'll take you up on that offer. Name and address please.

Obama and Bush are both good people.
Wow, I wonder how many ppl you just got in a tizzy.

Monsanto is French, and they get away with more here in the US then in their home country.
I wonder if thats what those tornado victims are thinking.
I shouldn't have to do that on all of my customers computers.
This was core functionality that was removed, and just because it can be patched does not mean it was OK to remove it.
