When they dispatched the Pony Express to deliver the letter, did they send out a few extras to ensure that at least one made it past the velociraptors?
ORLY? If you have a pile of iron ore and sand, and I have the equivalent weight as a BMW, which of us is more wealthy? We should tell all manufacturing workers not to show up, since they're clearly not achieving anything.
What the court said was (paraphrasing slightly) was that it doesn't give a Goddamn about one business screwing over another business using deceptive practices. It's only if said practices can be shown to have harmed retail purchasers that there's a case to answer.
It may seem clear to me and thee that achieving a patented monopoly by stealth would harm retail purchasers, but that's up to the plaintiff to demonstrate.
So, sure, it's a dick move by the circuit court, but the law says what the law says. There's no "Aw, c'mon, they were mean and sneaky" clause.
Your son is not a prodigy. At "nearly 2" he's about ready for playing "What sound does this animal make?" games. With you though, not with some electronic babysitter.
This question is nonsensical. Come back in 3 years, and we can talk.
This is designed to get money up front on the basis that most purchasers will be ineligible to benefit from it. Thus it takes money from the lazy and stupid which can be used to benefit smarter people. I have no problem with you^W them subsidising me^W us.
Serious question: if she can't tether a bag properly (follow the YouTube links to where she admits to not tethering it), what else is she forgetting, and who will make the "sacrifice" for her mistakes?
So take it up with the guy that started it all. He'll patiently explain exactly why you are merely a hypothesis, then you can tell that to the bank and they'll stop bothering you about those hypothetical mortgage payments. Also, hypothetical people don't have to pay for things at the grocery store: you just share them.
Try displaying text in any way other than in horizontal line (i.e. rotated, at least by 90 degrees) in plain HTML+CSS+JS, then we can talk.
Tell you what: you do it in Silverlight, then I can say "What the hell? Are you actually interested in communicating, or just in fucking around with an API?"
You've twice said "suspiciously behaving people" as though that has some meaning. Based on the available evidence, I'd surmise that it's 99% meaningless.
You might want to think about that the next time you go through a security checkpoint. The goons working it are wrong at least 99% of the time (I say "at least" because I'm assuming that as well as being 99% wrong in who they do stop, presumably they're also failing to stop some evildoers). If placing yourself into their hands doesn't worry you enough to make you act (suspiciously) nervous, well, it should do.
You're right! We should extend this outside of airports, so that any jumped up minimum wage gomer with a tin badge can stop anyone they like, declare Facecrime, and use that as probable cause for an invasive search up to and including internal! I'm sure that the 99% of innocents who get Probed would also agree that the payoff is worth it, whatever the cost!
But you are forgetting that they may not be paying dividends now, but they can always choose to do it later
And I can call my bank and say "I'm not paying my mortgage now, but I may choose to do so later." I'm sure they'll understand.
If they're not paying, then they're not paying. And by the way: the value of your investment is what you trade it for at the exact point when you actually sell, not what it's ostensibly worth 5 minutes before that.

Cut to taking an AIBO for a walk using a clock wipe.
Clock wipe to using the app.
I guess I must be some sort of frikkin' genius, so that'll be a hundred beelyon dollars for the advertising campaign.
Where there is a real superiority of mind, rudeness will be always under good regulation.

Because of course there are no liquids other than water. Except troll spittle.
Actually, you sound like you'd do better at the Department of Homeland Security.
The elephant-nose fish has a brain to body ratio higher than ours. I for one welcome etc etc etc.
It's very courageous of you to keep her colleagues in danger. Not many people would have the guts to make that kind of call.

According to him, you don't really exist.

I strongly suspect that the only company that (ultimately) paid money to SCO was Microsoft.

Let's start with you, shall we?
Seriously, how much does the kdawson shell script earn from posting these "ZOMG startup brakes teh laws of physaks!!!!! agin!!!!" pieces?
Heh, marked "troll". I didn't know that we had hedge fund managers moderating us now.
We slay an indeterminate number of dancing angels?
I mean, if they're line dancing, then fair enough.

Yerrrs. I'm thinking: not so much.
So, presumably there would be no problems with my calling myself Richard Matthew Stallman, and setting up a Free Software Foundation of my own?
And what's their plan to deal with the Deep Crows?
