"It is unacceptable for comcast to say: old customer, not important; they should not have reused their password - so not our fault. "
Which is why probably why Comcast did not say that: "However, playing the better safe than sorry card, Comcast will assume the passwords on the matching accounts are valid and force a reset."
With all of the veritably bad actions that Comcast is taking, there's no need to make stuff up.
i3, i5, and i7 represent "good", "better", and "best" respectively. That's it. A *particular* SKU with an i5 mark may have 4 physical cores, but 4 physical cores is not a requirement to receive the mark. For example, this i5 has 4 physical cores: http://ark.intel.com/products/... while this i5 has 2 physical cores http://ark.intel.com/products/...
"what's at best an oppressive theocracy from obtaining nuclear weapons"
The Guardian Council is opposed to nuclear weapons. It was the secular authorities that were pursuing their development.
The only value nuclear weapons have for Iran are a) to prevent the USA from pre-emptively invading, and b) to trade away in a diplomatic deal. The latter did not even require actual weapons to have been developed.
There is no plausible way in which Iran represents a threat to the USA. The only people that the post-revolutionary Iran has used their military offensively against are the Taliban (remember them?), and defensively they fought against the USA-backed Iraq.
The only part which the App Store cannot do is selecting specific devices. Any enabled device will download the new app and devices not enabled will not download it.
"You have to use iTunes to download an app" It looks like that because the App Store is not a website and the interface is in iTunes, but downloading to the device does not require connecting the device to the computer with iTunes in any way.
The key word is "ceremonially". As the treaty had not even been ratified by the Senate by that time, the ceremonial signing meant nothing. As the verye article you link to states "Bush, who had worked to "fast track" the signing prior to the end of his term, ran out of time and had to pass the required ratification and signing of the implementation law to incoming president Bill Clinton."
While Clinton did not originate NAFTA, he fully supported it: "NAFTA means jobs. American jobs, and good-paying American jobs. If I didn't believe that, I wouldn't support this agreement."
I think that I have stepped in Poe's Law once again.
My point that since Linus is in fact " a self-appointed minimod with the power to ban you without recourse" and Linux is in fact successful then this is a relevant counterexample to your claim.
" outside your jurisdiction."
It doesn't actually cover anyone outside of the US borders. You have to get back to the US for any property rights to be recognized.
All of these words keep using the same letters over and over again.
You need a gun to shoot down unregistered drones.
Who says it can actually be reached from the internet?

In this thread, it's not Intel's confusion that I am worried about ;-)

This is why we can't have nice hostages.
"if the cable can't do it then fail gracefully"
But how do you know that the cable can't do it? I submit that melting does not satisfy the "fail gracefully" condition.

The entire point of the exercise was to find out the attributes of the *cable*.
You want to put a USB Host Controler in every *cable*?
The resistors are in the cable.
"the thing that it's plugged into, not the cable."
The thing that it is plugged into *is* the cable.

"Why do I care about how people I don't know behave?"
Because it's unlikely that the lynching will be conducted by your friends.
It's radio... no one else is listening either.
"When access to the community depends on the mercy of a self-appointed minimod with the power to ban you without recourse"
This is why Linux never went anywhere.
Clearly, GO is an language where you really need to be abusive.
As you note, that requires an ordinarily mild-mannered man. However, you fail to note that in this context all we have is Linus.
" don't be ashamed of anything you do"
Whether or not *you* are ashamed of what you do does not necessarily affect how *other people* behave.
Except the early terminals weren't even 8-bit. Only 6 bits were needed for upper-case only ASCII.
