I don't think airlines care about wifi and bluetooth, I mean I've never heard them ask people to make sure they keep their wifi off when everyone has a laptop.
Why rent one for a fee when I've already got one? You see it's quite small and fits in my pocket. I mean why bring clothing when I can just rent new clothes for a small fee...
Wifi and bluetooth can be turned on while in airplane mode. This is also useful while roaming. Also you can get bluetooth headphones that last for 20+ hours now.
I have a set of bluetooth Sennheiser headphones. The battery life is over 20 hours. The noise cancelation on them is nice too. I got them specifically to do as you do.
Not only humourless but unimaginative. It would have been a great gimmick for marketing science to children. Boaty could have had his own animated television series.
Obviously, because we're not discussing the number of crappy physicians in the USSR. We're discussing the role financial reward plays in the creation and/or development of smart and ambitious people in the context of the effect a basic income guarantee would have on modern society.
Sigh... such a communist mentality. It's why the USSR paid medical doctors the same as laborers. Did they get more good doctors? No. They got crappy doctors, since the smart, ambitious people weren't motivated to spend all that time and effort to be competent MD when common laborers earned the same amount.
Sorry I need to call you out on this. People took pride in their jobs. A lack of money doesn't stop people from being smart and ambitious. Unless you're the entrepreneur type of smart and ambitious rather than scientist kind, I'll give you that. Although even then you could argue that people would just chase power rather than money, because for the truly ambitious money is just a means to power. Social standing depended on more than money then, it depended on character and class (because everyone was poor anyway.) Also you should realise just because the best and brightest didn't make didn't make millions of dollars doesn't mean that there weren't huge perks that came along with it, both social and financial.
From this perspective the "Eastern Block" is much worse now. Scumbags, thugs, crooks and politicians makes millions while doctors make $500 per month. At least back then the elite doctors, scientists, and engineers got to live in the best apartments and go to all the fancy parties. Not anymore.
One of the big problems with these systems wasn't the lack of reward for effort, it was that loyalty to the system was rewarded more highly than performance which is indeed demotivating. But this condition is not unique to socialist or communist systems. It happens everywhere. When was the last time the Western world had a real fucking leader?
Thin laptops are vulnerable to being bent and cracked in half.
Really?
They're not very durable.
Where do you get that idea?
They also tend to have shorter lifespans because there's little room for adequate air circulation and the overheating shortens the life of the components.
Come on some kind of citation is appropriate if you're going to make that many assumptions.
This probably isn't a good way to spend your money.
Negotiation is fundamental to our economic system, and life in general when you consider negotiation not relating to money. I mean it's fair enough that you feel your own time is better spent on more important things which you're probably very good at, but it's not correct to say that negotiation in general is a waste of time and energy. The cost of all the expensive equipment and materials you use in your professional life has been negotiated. Had it not been negotiated by someone within your organisation, you would have fewer resources with which to do your job with; and it's not a particularly nice attitude to have toward your colleagues that are working to support you in your profession.

The second ones say up to 30 hours of battery. The first are 22 I think.
Don't think so. I have over-ear ones.

Disembark is a perfectly good word though. I'm not sure why that didn't come to mind straight away.
It's not just your language anymore so grow and deal with it.
Deplaning is removing the plane from the passengers? Depopulating a plane sounds a bit grim.

I like him too.
+1 for this question. I'm genuinely interested in reading his response to it.
It sounds like you're suggesting it should be illegal to forget or lose your encryption key.

Social standing within your family, neighbours, peers, and community are different from what your position is on the party totem pole.

Thank you for your wisdom Mr Anon.
The slashdot editors are trolling their readers really hard with this... well done.
It would have been less obvious if he hadn't mentioned SCO.

It's a shame I've been modded insightful. In a better world I would have been modded redundant.
That's only true if most whites were racist. As this is not the case, anti-racism is just anti-you.
Yeah I have to agree with you there. Going out of your way to hide something from someone is different simply not mentioning it.
There's not much of a difference between state propaganda and private propaganda these days.
