Wikipedia doesn't generally allow people or entities to edit themselves. Falls under "original research", which has always been banned. I could fly to another planet and say "the sky is green", and I wouldn't be allowed to post that that planet has a green sky. Someone else would have to.
Physical nicotine withdrawl ends after 72 hours. You won't be an addict any more than Bill Clinton is a sex "addict". That is, it's only the post-political-conscription definition of addict. The original medical definition of addict would not apply after 72 hours.
I think perhaps people don't realize that giving reasons to sympathize with an attacker is de facto justifying it. You are saying there are reasons. It's like saying, "I don't think white people should randomly kill black people, but I understand why they think they need to, and it's for $THIS reason."... Yeah, that doesn't fool me either. Sorry I'm so stubborn.;)
I've actually lost stuff from my life permanently *because* I used a tape backup. What happens after they stop manufacturing compatible drives? Well, maybe I could have shelled out, but eventually it was too late. I wish I'd never gone that route. Quite happy with harddrives plus a double-burn for large media files. Fine with re-installing windows every few years.
You last paragraph tells me you read into THEIR last paragraph too much. They don't talk about doctors or police because these are highly-valued, highly-respected, and highly-powerful people. Why would they need to revolt against society? They are some of the few who will be well off in ANY society, even Nazy Germany. They are the last ones who need to revolve. They are the last ones who ever would.
Also, I don't get how you get "1800s pioneers" from what they wrote either. Methinks you read between the lines a bit too much. Think of the Amish: They still use computers [contrary to accepted belief] and technology, but only in ways that are approved for the good of their community. They don't practice technology for technology's sake, they use it when it helps them. Some may argue they are happier because of it. Of course that is subjective. Even the amish don't want to go back to 1800s technology.
Basically you are now telling me the burden is on me to prove your assertion (that I am lying, and that the replacement drives that come to me are refurbished drivesa and not new drives). Y'know, the one you made with no evidence.
How about next time I RMA a drive, I take a video of me opening it, and post it on youtube?
I'd predict you'd just say I was "lucky", Basically No-True-Scotsman'ing the return into "not being a true return".
It's always unfortunate when I meet someone as stubborn as I am, but on the wrong side of an argument.
No. It's consistent. Any drive I get replaced (about 1 per year) was manufactured usually in the last 2 months (which is the same as a new purchase). Maybe this is an added feature of, y'know, 5 year warranties. Which you seem to have no experience with but seem to want to be able to dictate what happens despite having zero evidence.
Me? I have evidence in the form of the manufacture dates entered into my inventory file. But said file also has banking numbers. So it's not public. So unfortunately I cannot give you an archive.org link to a previous version to prove that I am not lying.
Police ABSOLUTELY ARE NOT "used" to it. Please follow the PhotographyIsNotACrime blog for a year or so and come back when your attitudes have been adjusted to reality.
It was like $30, and now it's $900. So the answer would be: Whatever stock went to 3000% of its original value. The stock market itself does not go up 3000% in 2 years.
Wrong. Flat tax is a bullshit idea that benefits the rich the most. Money's value to an individual is logarithmic, not linear. Taxing a billionaire 10% and a homeless man 10% is NOT fair, and it's simplistic to think it is.
If you just bought it, you don't know how long it will last. Hint: Nowhere near what they say on the box. I've run the numbers, and it's not saving me any money. It's making me pay more to save energy. The savings in energy costs aren't passed on to me; I'm paying more than before. Where does the savings go? I don't know, but I'm guessing: The pocket of some corporation somewhere. Probably the one selling the light bulbs that don't have ROI. They're getting undeserved money.
Not illegal to ask for getting a clearance, which in some areas of the country (like where I live) is synonymous with always being able to find a job vs not.
By that logic, we should also ban skiing and football. There are a lot more football injuries than drug deaths. Why should I have to pay?
There should be forced exercise. Why should someone else's free will cost me a penny?
News flash asshole: No man is an island, and you inherently pay for other peoples' freedom constantly. If you don't like it, your only solution is to kill yourself or stop paying taxes and go to jail where you become a hypocrite because we'd all then be paying for you.

It almost certainly caused physical harm.

Why shouldn't Hitler be able to edit his own Wikipedia page?

stopped reading when you tried to redefine assault to your purposes. you don't get how the first amendment works.

And if she were a murderer, that would make it okay for you to be one too, by your logic?

forgive my many typos

While I tend to agree, your dad's approach was bad for you, but not everybody is you. Some shits need spying on.

Races to the bottom suck. Dictating my life by how bad apples behave is unfair to me.
A heat pump is still getting heat from electricity.

And what did you do to help? Make armchair comments about how what other people did isn't the right thing? What did you do that *was* the right thing?
Sounds like he's more willing to fix the problem than you are.
You use the term "Rock bottom" without defining it, making your argument hollow and lacking substance. Define rock bottom.
It wasn't a dig, it was an accurate statement.
