If you're going to do something stupid or better yet illegal, don't record yourself. Here's a fun Q&A with him on FB: https://www.facebook.com/saint...
Sounds like he got fired and was looking for revenge! Curious what he did to deserve the firing.
The whole point of buying a video game console was to not have to worry about different "tiers" of quality and performance like you have to with PCs.
With the recent generation pulling this "PS4/Xbox-Lite" crap where games run at worse performance on the cheaper consoles, it makes me wonder why should I even purchase a console when a desktop will be infinitely better in terms of cost, performance, and longevity? That ignores the fact that I could easily set on up to run in the living room.
Consoles nowadays nothing more than overpriced specialized computers for the living room, of which there are many free options available for PCs if I so desire to go that route.
Back in the 50s, 60s, and 70s, Canada was consider the prime outsourcer for American white collar work. Lots of benefits to this such such as having the same time zone or close to it, cultural similarities, and a lack of a language barrier (eh?).
And honestly, I'm ok with that. I'd like to support countries that are similar in values, culture, politics, and legal systems. Outsourcing work to the lowest bidders ends up supporting at best cronyism and bribery. And at worst totalitarian regimes.
Because if you are, then your pantry must be filled with overly processed GMO'd crap.
There are hundreds of thousands of brands out there not owned by the companies listed in then pic.
Whether you chose to seek them out is another question. If you live in Europe, ironically your beloved small corner store brands are definitely owned by the same companies.
If you're in America, at least Walmart gives these small brands the opportunity to get shelf space against those companies you're deriding. Amazon? Forget about it, you're going up against huge AMS and AMG campaigns.
Want to help small companies? Go to big stores and buy them. It's that easy.
Yes it's old and yes it's not USB-C. But it's proven tech that works. A standard that came to define Apple.
Dropping it was an absolute mistake. The Surface products all have equivalent magsafe knock offs that work very well. For the first time, Apple is regressing and resting on its laurels.
Bring it back, admit the mistake, and move on from this singular love of silly USB C ports.
Will we see a return to the non craptacular keyboards that don't let dust freak them out?
If no, then I'll continue to stick with my aging 2015 Macbook Pro. No reason to ever upgrade until they either change the style of keyboard or revert back to a design that works.
Steve Jobs is clearly turning in his grave at what has become of Apple.
But let's talk about how energy intensive it is to get water into that supercritical state.
Probably so expensive with current "green" technology that it would make more sense to just work on optimizing fossil fuel usage.
Sure we could achieve this easily with nuclear power, but with dolts like Ocasia-Cortez running around trying to gut our nuclear industry it just ain't going to happen.
Ran 3rd part math and science during the SAT, ACT, and on every math and physics test.
If you know where to look, exam mode hacks abound. Doing this helped me bolster my math scores on my application to Penn. Sure some diversity applicant was denied, but who really cares anyway.
Pretty sure women are going to be affected just as badly as men.
Imagine, hundreds of single men with bad game just stop feeding the egos of all these women on social media and instead buy a robot that looks like a straight 10 that will cook, clean, and well **** without complaining.
That will be a real crisis worth watching./Sarcasm... Sort of
The answer then is to go to the machine shop and ask what it will take them to increase their output 2x, 3x,4x, etc and supply the loans neccessary to make it happen.
This is how every German, Chinese, Japanese, and we'll pretty much every other foreign business works with its domestic suppliers .
It seems Apple just was looking for an excuse.
Doubly so, GE and several car manufacture have plants in Texas where they have the pull to get whatever screws they need. Those factories just aren't in hip and cool Austin.
Maybe if tech companies could lose their hard one for that boring college town, they'd be able to realize the benefits of domestic manufacturing.
1. How in God's name is an IPO going to cause depression 2.0? If Goldman and the other Banks underwrite a junk business that's on them and I recall a few IPOs that went under the open price. No depression there.
2. You mean like all of the essential oil peddlers who have been claiming all sorts of things even before the government shutdown?
3.The IRS has around $200 of my money because I correctly calculated how much I should send to the government. So no refunds aren't a big deal. If you're too lazy to figure it out yourself that's on you, not big gov to pay you back. thanks
4. A second 9/11, are you even a slashdot poster ? Why don't you Google how many times people managed to sneak weapons past TSA. It's called security theater for a reason. Those nuddie scanners came from Michael Chertoffs company.
5. Food safety? You mean like the time Bush reduced inspection visits or when Obama eliminated 60% of the inspectors for foreign meat on 2012?
I'm not one to be a lolbertarian but if you think life's going to descend into anarchy without massive government oversight, I think you have bigger problems to contend to.
If the government can't be assed to get it self running properly, then anything that previously requires some government oversight should be allowed to move forward without the shutdown government holding them back.
Delayed IPO? Go on ahead with going public. New Drug? Not a problem, do your studies and use some good judgement. Besides if you fail you get sued which is a nice trade off. Tax Payments? Sucks to be you government, can't figure yourself out your crap can't get paid. Airport Security? No more lines at the airport. Air traffic Control? Anarchy of the skies!
The last one was a joke. ATC should be airport employees and not FAA employees like how it is in everywhere else in the world.
The Gemini is sort of a "meh" proposition for me. I gave up on the PDA years ago and the fact that this has 4G, but no phone capabilities is a bit of a letdown.
However, that Livermorium gives me hope. That form factor is by far the most functional design there is and I miss my Droid 4 immensely. A modern landscape slider keyboard, makes me SO happy.
Any business leader, especially one the caliber of Elon Musk, willingly visiting China is taking a massive risk given the geopolitical machinations going on. He'd have to be stupid to not think the Chicoms wouldn't in a heartbeat lock up the star of America's green tech.
I'd sooner visit Afghanistan, Yemen, or Somalia over China. At least the risks are obvious. In China, your freedom is on the whim of some self serving bureaucrats looking to boost their social credit scores.

Are you making reference to these companies?

And be done with this. No fucking reason to keep doing it anymore!

It's just email addresses. My spam filter works so well, I doubt anyone of them will get through.
And if one does, I block it. No big deal .
Not a big deal.
Which Chicom insider stole it all?

Cool science, but not readily useful.
It seems people are now forgetting that it gets cold in the winter.
Those in Chicago especially. It's also bad in New England where they make excuses for their lack of budget for snow removal. "It never gets this bad."
Yes it does, people just seem to blot out the bad in favor of those nice hot and humid summers.
Using gas jets to keep track switches from bindings isn't something new.

Safe to say Africa's Ebola problems would be solved if they would stop eating bushmeat and doing weird witchcraft stuff to bodies after death.
The weird witchcraft stuff also extends to AIDS.
And good riddance! It's time for those silly pensions to give way to what the rest of the US has: 401Ks.
Ahh yes, the classic false dichotomy ," if government was good back then, then obviously more is better!"
NEWSFLASH bum, it isn't and it's not progress. A modest roll back of government regulations is a good thing.
And I say this as a liberal.
Looking forward to many more months of a government shutdown.
Let's address this:
1. How in God's name is an IPO going to cause depression 2.0? If Goldman and the other Banks underwrite a junk business that's on them and I recall a few IPOs that went under the open price. No depression there.
2. You mean like all of the essential oil peddlers who have been claiming all sorts of things even before the government shutdown?

Airport Security? No more lines at the airport.
Air traffic Control? Anarchy of the skies!
The last one was a joke. ATC should be airport employees and not FAA employees like how it is in everywhere else in the world.
It's time we reuse old code. Backspacing incorrect code is unacceptable!
We must copy and move it even if it's only 1 character.
Every bit and byte is special and cannot he deleted!
Ironic because most coders just copy and paste code anyway!
If you watch the Last Jedi and cheer for the bad guys, it's actually a really good movie.
But now I'm conflicted because the empire needs to win!
I hope the last Star Wars film ends up with most of the rebels getting killed or going into hiding.
That Chinese chick Rose that ruined TLJ is killed in some hilarious way.
Poe is offered to join the empire, and does. Becomes an elite soldier who hunts done rebel scum.
It would make up for an otherwise hilarious end to a ruined franchise.
Sir, you have given me HOPE for the future!

No thank you!
Already did asshole. Notice how faketimcook's posts are all -1 and his karma is in the shitter? That's my glorious doing.
You're next on my list.
LMFAO! What drugs are you smoking?
Starting salary for a border patrolman is $45k plus benefits. So maybe $55k all in.
Ain't no one making 80k as a border guard in BFE New Mexico haha.
