Isn't it funny how the progressive forces in the university insist on applying standards to industry, and yet exempt themselves from the requirements on the grounds that compliance would be too expensive?
I wouldn't be surprised. In China, labor is far cheaper than any automation. In addition, this is the sort of crap-ass quality problems that Chinese products typically have.
It sounds like they don't want the bands directing traffic to their own websites, where music could be had for less than at Amazon. People can preview the artwork before buying. If anyone finds this restriction too onerous, they have every right to refuse the deal.
Get a f-ing clue. While I was watching Knight Rider and Riptide, I watched reruns of Gilligan's Island, The Brady Bunch, and Green Acres, and I could barely believe that those shows were actually successful. I wrote off TV back then, and haven't been back (and I'm not one of those "I don't own a TV" douchebags). I go back to America about once a year. My Dad has DirecTV with 500 channels and everything unlocked. It takes me about 48 hours of entrancement (time to get acquainted with an old friend called Television) and even I get bored after that. TV isn't better than it's ever been, it's the same shit. I'm sure someone who defines himself by which TV shows he watches wouldn't believe what I say, though.
Sorry, what is "the Hudson"? Is it some sort of common drinking fountain where you live? Or is it some sort of shared idea, unknown outside your own tiny world? I did a Google search and just found a bunch of consulting companies and a school district. Nothing involving a brand of drinking water or anything involving human health.
Uh, no. This was quite clearly a bribe. It was not freely given. Trust me, after living overseas for 6 years, and bribing my share of officials, this couldn't be more obvious. It's just because Americans aren't accustomed to engage in bribery every day that everyone's supporting the ridiculous "donation" cover story.
Actually, that is quite often the case. Remember, we're talking about software developers here. Their stock in trade is totally missing UI issues, creating inconvenient workflows (for the user - the software internals are tight), and so on. Case in point: IE6.
I always put a fake name as my Mom's maiden name. Why does anyone need to know that? It's just an ordinary word, and I always list it the same.
The problem comes with those idiot services that try to be too clever by half, and ask a battery of questions ("what was the name of your first grade teacher" "what was your first dog's name") and other such worthless trivia. These fields are required, and cannot be skipped. One day, the site decides to be clever again (I can picture some nerd furiously beating off as he thinks about his great idea) and asks me what's my favorite color when I log in. I mean, if I forget my password, that's my problem. But using these personal questions as some sort of CAPTCHA or user verification is just stupid.
No, it's not "sub-ether", it's "sub-etha". Jeez, if you're going to nerd out about something, at least be correct about it. Kind of defeats the purpose of nerdiness otherwise.
It's so you can't copy & paste the text, dumbass. In addition, Flash ensures a consistent user experience, instead of relying on an untrustworthy browser to display content.
That God-damned representative government! People doing what they want, instead of what's best for them! I tell you, if I was in charge, we wouldn't have any of this inefficient "voting" or "town hall meetings" or any of that crap. I'd just say what was right, and anyone who didn't agree would be beaten. Let's increase taxes and ensure that no poor people can ever drive again! They don't deserve it, the cretins.
I once had a lady that was adamant that they called the operating system Windows because you viewed it in the window.
My she must have been savagely treated by the geeks of the day? What? You mean that's what Windows actually means? BURN HER! BURN HER AS A WITCH! How did she know what I was thinking, unless she was a witch?
Clue #1: The entire population of the world, much less the United States, does not live within shockwave distance of Washington, D.C. I know this must come as a shock to you, but check this shit out:
During WWII, anyone who came to see FDR could clearly see that he was parapalegic and therefore unworthy of the presidency. Compare and contrast: the effect of widely publishing FDR's disability / versus / agreeing with the mainstream media in order to intentonally supress the news.
Good job shilling for your viral advertising job! As an American who has been away since 2002, these sorts of obvious shilling probably look like innocouous comments, but to me, viral shilling is as obvious as a dick on a pumpkin. I've never heard of this weak-ass slogan before, and I can't conceive of any reason to repeat it, other than you are a paid shill or a creature of such zero life as you can be enhanced by repeating someone's slogan.
Here's the google search for Geico. You will notice it's clean and clear of any advertisments. Likewise with a google search for AA, contrast it to a American airlines, which has an ad. These are on Google's banned ad keywords, such as guns, Jews, ammunition, and other content that Google's morals would rather not see people make money on.
Call me crazy, but the number of times I've encountered psychotic 15-year-old players greatly outnumbers the times I've encountered dumbass old fucks being jerks. Voice chat doesn't lie.
Well, the problem is, a factory won't get out of bed unless there's a minimum quantity ordered. If you want to get some made the opportunity is right here, right now.
Ha, I tried that. Unfortunately for me, I have a ton of international friends, so I'm getting constantly bombarded with quizzes in Italian, Tagalog, and Hindi, in addition to all the English ones. I could block the people who take quizzes all the time, but just the other day one of them had a very interesting tidbit about a local foreigner who was quarantined for exposure to H1N1.

I would no sooner believe them than I would a tramp on the street. AI and the US government are just two sides of the same coin.

Why did you marry someone that you had a lab with?
Ok you lost me there. Arming Joseph Stalin with WMD is "preventing" deaths?
Oh, right - I'm responding to a well-known troll account. Sorry, I usually pick up on this sort of thing. My bad.

That's WHY WINDOWS ARE CALLED WINDOWS IN THE FIRST PLACE, because the monitor is a pane of glass, just like a window. Seriously, wtf man?

The perfect example of "not funny internet humor" by a totally ignorant person. Depressingly common these days. Leave making jokes to the pros, OK?
No, it's not "sub-ether", it's "sub-etha". Jeez, if you're going to nerd out about something, at least be correct about it. Kind of defeats the purpose of nerdiness otherwise.

The internet was developed in order to ensure American communications after a Communist Soviet nuclear strike.

Doesn't sound like it would be much of a problem for the coating. Minimum order from a factory I trust is 1000, want to get some made?
