What it really means is that you never have to take "the law" seriously any more. It's just another talking point. Anyone who supports Hillary can be laughed at if they ever pretend to care whether someone obeys or breaks a law from now on.
All law enforcement can henceforth be presumed to be political. That makes any violent actions by law enforcement officers politically-motivated violence. And prisoners are just people with bad politics or people without influential government friends.
They're always enraged about something. When Apple does stuff, people talk about it and you get to hear from them. You're not there when they bark about the green banana conspiracy at the local grocery store, or the quinoa hegemony at the hotel restaurant. You missed their rants about the weather and the Canadian president's hair. Did they mention there were weird smells at the movie theatre? Unbelievable!
But the worst thing is definitely the headphone jack. Clearly they just want to force everyone to buy $9 adapters every week when the old ones break, or get lost, or get stolen by corporate adapter-retrieval squirrels. It's monstrous.
But keeping everything the same is better than changing things. Internet people told me that. Strangely though, they didn't tell me me that by sending me a handwritten letter in the mail.
Just like Android 2.3 integration of SIP didn't revolutionize the market
Because the public doesn't notice when some arbitrary version of Android adds another tech feature. They don't even know which version of Android their phone is running.
Today will be the turning point in the way you buy a cellular service plan. In 3 years, we will be talking about how, after the iPhone 7 release with iOS 10's first-class treatment of VoIP services, we no longer need to buy voice minutes on cell phone plans.
So your response is that there's no hope for Britain either inside or outside the EU. I guess the "uninformed Brexiters" didn't want to give up on it. Old people are like that sometimes.
People in the UK should make national sovereignty decisions to benefit Japan, I guess. Hasn't that been the problem all along -- citizens of the UK being told that everyone's input about their country matters except their own? Do it for the migrants, the refugees, the Japanese, the big international bankers, the transplanted people from other EU countries, and the rich businessmen in London -- they matter, not you, or your family, or your friends and neighbors.
I'm really glad everything is solved now and we won't have to listen to climate change alarmists any more. Congrats guys. You can stop spending your time on prophetic doomsday storytelling and go out and do something productive now -- if you can somehow find a way to produce anything of value without using any energy.
When you define "productivity" to exclude any benefit from doing anything on your phone, then less time spent on your phone leads to more time available for "productivity".
The question is, why should anyone care? "Productivity" isn't the only thing that matters.
If you want to be more productive, keep your phone but delete the Facebook app.
I'm sometimes think that most of the vitriol on reddit is coming from non-native english speakers or austistic spectrum types who don't get nuance of language, playing the PC version.
They're mostly just assholes. A few people get stuff like this started, a mob of assholes get in on it and they hate-swarm someone. It's the online equivalent of a lynch mob.
Poor social skills and poor language understanding don't make people behave like assholes. They behave that way because they're assholes and because people keep tolerating and enabling them.
Maybe that 17-year-old should learn to make grownup decisions with his scarce resources. He didn't have to preorder. He could have bought a physical copy so he could trade it in. Or, best of all, he could have waited a few months and bought it on sale -- or skipped it entirely. If you wait a few months after release, games usually drop from $60 to $20 or $30.
It's so easy to be a grownup and not to be fooled. Rather than indulging the Internet hate-swarmers, why not join me and urge these people to grow up?
With every other product in the world you have a refund period.
I'm OK with a refund period. I just want Internet whiners and hate-swarmers to grow up and stop burdening everyone with their foolishness and entitlement.
Everyone had the chance to know whatever they needed to know to make an informed choice. But that requires being a grownup and waiting a week or two to buy.
Is there a demo of NMS? I don't pre-order any games and if there isn't a playing demo download, the chances of me buying it are zero.
Cool. Thanks for being a grownup. Let's ask others to grow up now.
But if a game really sucks, a refund is a reasonable solution. If somebody has bought dozens of games and only asked for a refund once, it's pretty fair to say that this should be the publisher's problem.
It doesn't suck. It's ok. It's just not "great" and the minimalistic gameplay isn't fun for some people.
I think Sony's policy is one lifetime refund on a digital purchase as a courtesy. That seems about right.
If you choose to gamble on being an early adopter, don't go crying when your gamble doesn't pay off. Or if you're going to cry about it if it's not what you wanted, then wait and make sure it's what you want before you buy it. Like a grownup.

Losing the arbitration ruling punishes the victimizer without giving lawyers million dollar incentives to file meritless lawsuits.
No class actions? So I won't get a coupon for $10 off an Uber ride while the lawyers take home millions? Say it ain't so!
We all have a keen interest in the legal procedural minutiae of Uber drivers.
I think it was during the Teapot Dome Scandal.

Just like there were MP3 players before the iPod.

To be fair, lots of people were saying that right after the vote.
Sounds like Japan should send their demands to Brussels then.

It's not Apple, so "ho hum, this has been happening to everyone more and more often".
Neither is believing storytelling about the future.

You seem to have talking about doing something confused with actually doing it.
Things will be horrible shit for just about everyone if Trump is elected.
That's what they said about every politician ever. Why should we believe it this time? Things almost always turn out ok.
