The flip side is downloading a bunch of cruft you'll never use. It would also be a significant extra load on mirrors.
Not the case when you download it once and then do multiple installs. Knoppix is available on a 4gig dvd iso - lots of stuff there compared to their cd iso.
A 10-disk install on 3-1/4 floppies (at $3 a disk) costs more than a 32-gig drive nowadays. TigerDirect has USB 3.0 64 gig usb keys for under $20 today, and 32gig for $8. $8. for 32 gigs is pretty darned cheap, all things considered, especially if you can boot off it and give life back to that laptop when the soldered-in hard drive dies and there's no DVD drive, which is the trend nowadays.
Smart people will figure that the price has been padded by far more than $250, and negotiate based on that, not some phony discount.
I haven't noticed anyone using a fitbit or an apple watch or whatever - and you can be sure if they used them, they'd be letting the world know about it. Bragging rights... same as nobody I know is demanding internet fridges or toasters or air conditioners or fridges. Even the ones with smart TVs just watch whatever's on cable or satellite. Samrtphones and tablets offer enough to occupy those who feel they need more internet content.
With 32 gig usb sticks so cheap, there's no reason not to make it the size of a full dvd or more. This way, multiple installations would not have to individually download tons of packages. It would "just work."
One place I worked at had one of those fingerprint readers on the time clock. I never used it after demonstrating that it would not read my fingerprint most of the time even with multiple tries and went back to my time sheet.
You would have to pay me to wear any sort of smart device without a serious medical reason. And even then, it won't help them because of the confidentiality of medical data. Suck it up, marketers. This is not the market you're looking for.
He went on to detail the method of calculation of the Chairman and CEO’s remuneration.
The Committee consults with a specialist in remuneration and human capital, as well as executive
compensation benchmarks. This consultation helps to ensure the appropriateness of the level of
compensation set, particularly with regard to the remuneration of leaders of comparable groups.
The remuneration of the Chairman and CEO is then discussed and voted upon by the Board of
Directors, in the absence of Mr Ghosn, to ensure full independence of the Board.
Since 2014, the “Say on Pay” reform requires the submission of an advisory opinion by
shareholders on the remuneration of executive directors in respect of the preceding fiscal year.
In according with the Board’s decision, the remuneration of the Chairman and CEO consists of a
fixed and a variable portion.
The board of directors need not follow the advisory opinion of the shareholders. When you write "evolving regulations" and "may soon be required"", that's just a lame attempt to ignore the current reality, while tacitly conceding that European companies are not bound by such votes... My points still stands, The Frank-Dodd act doesn't apply to European companies, and the board of directors of European companies are free to ignore the solely advisory vote of the shareholders.
So, why don't you sign up for both geography and current history lessons , before, to use your own words, you make such an ass of yourself.
What an idiot - you need to get a geography lesson. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act doesn't apply to companies headquartered in Ireland. Also, the guy still got his increase, despite shareholders being against it. The shareholders can, of course vote out the board of directors, but that's a different story than having any direct say in CEO pay.
This happens because directors who sit on many boards want to make sure that when they get the boot, the huge payout will be easier to justify - "Just look at what they got for tanking the company." It has zero to do with performance, or they would have just fired her. It's not like they had to agree to this deal
He was jerking off several times a day in the hospital a week after surgery (he hadn't had a penis for more than 2 years, so it's understandable since he still had his testes). Probably did it in the hospital bed with her. This way if it came off when he got off, there'd be help available, but it's obvious that wasn't the case.
Doctors are encouraging patients to walk around the same day after different types of surgeries that would have been up to a week in the hospital.
I'm sure you can find head for less than a c-note if you look around. Think of what you could do with $20 million? It would probably kill you - but you'll die with a smile on your face.
I guess you missed the memo - the ones doing the worst attacks are gay men. People are now finally saying something about it because they see others saying something about it.
When I first posted this sort of stuff on Failbook, I was expecting to be totally crapped on. Didn't happen. So many other transsexuals came out of the woodwork to express agreement that I was both surprised and gratified. I also don't see much in the way of controversy for posting it here, again unexpected. So the people who count the most because they have skin in the game ARE listening.
Instead of just calling me names, why not get an account and post your arguments as to why I'm wrong? Instead of just name calling.
Conservatives can rain as much sh*t on us as they want with these bathroom bills - it won't stand up in court, and that will establish the precedents we need. Protests won't establish precedents. Petitions won't establish precedents. Court judgments will. Or do you not have faith that the courts will rule in our favor, on laws that are clearly discriminatory and unenforceable (even the police are saying they won't enforce it).
The ones pushing the "OMG PANIC!!!" button are the LGBT. They are ignoring the facts, so that they can get the attention they crave. Attention == power and money. Do you really believe that these bills will stand? Even the people pushing them know they won't. They're just using this to distract from the attacks on Planned Parenthood and abortion - and we're stupid enough to not see that's the bigger prize.
The best way to get other women as allies is to stand up for abortion rights. That affects far more people than unenforceable toilet laws ever will.
We need to be more outward-looking than the LGBT wants us to be. We claim we're women - so why are we being a bunch of easily-manipulated navel-gazing scared whiners so preoccupied with our own concerns that we fail to use the opportunities to voice solidarity with women's rights to control their own bodies?
Is it because we can't get pregnant? That's pretty selfish.
Now, you said I had an idiotic argument as to how transgender people should be treated. Keeping cross-dressers out of the bathrooms is not idiotic. They! Don't! Belong! There! They change their identity as quickly as they change their clothes. Easy for them, because they don't really identify as the opposite sex to their natal anatomy. It's all about thrills.
Take the time to explain the difference between transsexuals and the meaningless alphabet soup that the word "transgender" now represents, and women have much less of a problem with us using the same bathroom. Try it and you'll see. Others have, and are reporting positive results. Of course, you are free to disregard them because, like me, they too are fed up with the blow-back we've gotten thanks to this whole "everyone can identify as transgender for any reason and it means whatever I want it to mean" bull sh*t, so they must be biased:-).
We're all waiting for your words of wisdom as to why I'm so wrong.
It's only one step up from current lens replacement in cases of cataracts, which involves sucking out the old lens and inserting a folded lens.
Of course, with this new device, here's hoping nobody hacks your software. And if it's going to be powered by radio waves, you're either going to have to wear some sort of glasses to hide the battery and antenna, or look like a Borg.

Heretic! You're not supposed to actually read the articles!
In this case, the summary alone will generate lots of opinions, because MARKETERS.

I have outwitted them. My fingerprint will not help them. I don't lock my phone. And it doesn't have a fingerprint reader. ha ha :-)
Shareholders votes on pay are only advisory, not binding.

No - 2/3 of them are suicides. Mostly men.

If you don't assume that your personal information can no longer be kept secret, you're an incredibly naive pigeon begging to be plucked.
You know "-tomy" means cut, right?
I see the lobotomy removed your sense of humor.
It is the company about nothing.
Wasn't there a TV series like that? Turned into a huge success?

When did just not coming in on Fridays weekly become a thing? You don't know shit, my friend.
The same time that working through breaks and lunch and staying an extra hour every day became a thing..
That's simple. If you change / lose any other body part, you are still you. It goes with the head.

The new penis owner enjoyed it. Repeatedly. That's a pretty good indicator that the nerves are connected :-)

You certainly wouldn't want to drink beer that warm.
Just pop your head on a braindead clone.
Do I get to choose from who's body the clone is?
