It's not about whether they could do it, but how smug he comes across in patting himself on the back for having an excess of fuel while those around do without. Because his internet hosting is by far the most important thing in the world. And shelters would take people who still have a house, yet have no means of heating it.
"So eight hours in, we already had fuel trucks running. And every 24 hours, we had fuel, even though we didn’t need to."
I'm sure the people in shelters and waiting in line for 6 hours to fill their own generators so they can keep their family warm at night are happy for you.
The car isn't locked down. What is locked down is the definition of proprietary codes. You just have no idea that code PXXXX for a 2006 Ford means you have engine knocking, or the A/C compressor isn't working, etc. You can get these codes, it just means many hundreds of dollars per manufacturer to get them from each. It's not a matter of the corner garage not being able to fix the car, it's a matter of them not being able to/wanting to buy all the documentation.
Not that I don't agree with it personally it doesn't really affect me. I've always been able to track down whatever code I've needed on the internet. I understand an actual garage may not to want to rely on the internet for all it's needs, but for me personally just like I'll make due with the $20 Haynes and not the $800 Bentley manual I don't really need officially blessed. But then I'm not in the business either.
It's to protect the doctors. The truth of the matter is many doctors who have patients in these situations routinely make more than enough medication available for someone who wants to take that option. Most won't go so far as actually assisting, but they typically make the option there. This also means there is a much greater chance of not having things work out as planned and creating a bigger mess of a bad situation. Hopefully this helps that.
Because 70% of the Earth is covered with salt water? However, on a half serious note it could raise the question of whether living near the beach could be an issue with sea spray accumulation over time.
Because below ground is convenient, the least expensive cost per square foot of floor space, and it's where all your crap you want to keep out of the way goes.
He read it on the internet. Seriously, this is what Slashdot is reduced to? Both from a quality of submitter stand point and the fact that it was approved. Sad.
I can see it working in places where populations are pretty concentrated but in the US I'm not quite so sure. I guess it seems like it could work if you only planned on doing a few periodic shows now and then but I'm not seeing how you work an entire tour like this.
Right, because everyone buys a tablet or phone based on who supplied the display. Oh my, this iPhone doesn't have a Samsung display! I better go buy a Galaxy. That makes sense.
It actually makes a lot of business sense. If you have to pay them money you may as well pay them with as much of there own as possible. This is more a case of Apple's reliance on them as a supplier being reduced to the point where the return on investment of each panel has dropped.
The real reason businesses are switching is because Blackberry doesn't have as many games to keep you occupied during meetings. Not that you'll get management to admit it, but it's true.
We sacrifice efficiency for overall economy all the time. All around us is the conversion from one form of energy to another, at a loss. Take a look at my tool bench with over a dozen pneumatic tools that are powered by converting electricity into compressed air. Talk about a loss. However if I were to replace each of them with their electric equivalent I'd be out a ton more money.
If you look at most utility bills you'll see it broken down into usage and delivery, each typically about half the bill. So half your costs are simply infrastructure. I'll take a slight raise in the cost of energy as opposed to completely redoing infrastructure any day.
No kidding. The whole article talks about Android, not a lick about "Hardware". This really should highlighting about how Google may actually be taking it's software seriously and offering some sort of support for it. They've really allowed for quite a support mess and user confusion thanks to the many versions of Android out there among the various vendors.
The problem is it's a relatively small percentage of bags that have been replaced. In most cases the inspection will come up negative so the insurance company and certainly the shop won't cover the cost of inspection. In cases where one is found I'm assuming you can go after the shop who installed.

You really should care more about their stock which is 25% of their high.

Getting old is terminal. At least for everyone but me.

Stop being so literal, it says (or cans)

Because nobody wants to live there.
The UA football team is funding science by letting them set up a lab in the musty cellar of their stadium!

Bezos has run out of ideas and wants to start using other peoples for free.
Truthfully, he came across kind of crotchety. Not impressed.

What a cake job. There is no right or wrong answer, everything is just a quandry.
