It's still refreshing to see a CEO hold themselves to the same rules they expect their employees to abide by, even if it is only after they get caught. I'm sure there are plenty of low level managers at Intel that have gotten away with consentual relationships with their staff without being caught and nobody is expecting them to come forward and resign.
The first rule of business classes I took in the 1970's was "Don't Fuck Your Employees".
Amazing that nowadays, it still gets people fired. And they were way more tolerant back then.
Everyone I know who used Verizon has regretted it. Much slower to use with many more deadspots.
I had Straight Talk (prepaid vendor on the Verizon Network) and switched to Sprint because I was getting poor data in a lot of areas, and Sprint was offering the "free for a year" deal. I'm only three months into my Sprint "free" contract, but am trying to figure out if I should switch to Verizon because data availability is even worse.
I don't know what to do.
Well I just has a co-worker quit Sprit after 3 days, it was so bad. It cost him $100 but he gave all 4 phones back and went back to ATT.
Hi, I'm Donald Feckless Cunt Trump. I won the Presidency because I was the slightly less hated, but I've squandered that "victory" by colluding with Vladimir Putin to suck dicks up and down the Crimean peninsula. Prison time, bye!
Everyone seems to harp on the fact that Hotspot/jetpack is limited to 15gb of data per device. The issue you run into is what happened during the early days of the Feb unlimited plan when this wasn't enforced. We had a ton of people eliminating their home wifi networks and running their entire home/connected world (home security cameras, tablets, televisions, game consoles, media servers or purely cord cutting) off of a jetpack. This crippled the network. Then there were post everywhere about how someone couldn't send a snapchat of their dog farting and looking shocked. Much less the issue of businesses trying to oporate off of Verizon that couldn't send out invoices or ambulances that use verizon to get medical information out to the truck due to network congestion.
Under the current network restraints, it's just not possible to run things as fully unlimited the way people want. Much less for a lesser price and still have the money to build out a network that will be able to support your unlimited dog fart snapchats in the future.
Yep, as much as I don't like Verizon, I agree with you there. I knew someone who tried that and then bitched when it all went to hell.
If only everyone were like you, the world would be free of problems, and mankind could be at peace once and for all. Because you're you. And you-ness is everything. If only people could see. If only people could see...
Yes it would be a beautiful thing, bus alas poor Yorick, it is not to be!
I get my antibiotics from the Fish store. Same stuff with no prescription needed. I got sick of having to spend $200 just to get a prescription for my sinus infection.
This is going to be mostly a waste of time and money for these colleges, hoping to satisfy SJW's. There are already plenty of governmental or private programs for lower income students who actually make good grades and show promise. This just drives more marginal students who are not going to do well and waste everyone's time and effort into the school to achieve quotas.
Censoring "hate" speech is not the answer. Let people speak and out themselves. Better for all of us! If you don't like it, then don't respond or ignore.
Support FM broadcast radio which has always been free (and I don't want to hear anyone say "oh but it's not free there are commercials!", stop whining and turn down the damned volume or switch to another station if you can't handle it).
Problem is that all the stations seem to go to commercial at the same time. I'm not willing to listen to 20-30 minutes of commercials an hour on FM radio. I quit listening in 2002 and have no plans to ever listen again. The few times I have had to (rental car) I had to turn it off. The commercial load is just ridiculous.
I'm afraid I agree. Radio FM and AM is just way too many commercials.
Thats why I got XM radio.
And here lies the problem. If I can subscribe to Netflix and watch TV shows and movies for less than $10 per month, then I want to pay less than Netflix to listen to music.
At $5 per month I'd start to think about it. At $3 per month I wouldn't even think about it and just subscribe.
Many top sci-fi writers have done scripts and found it daunting to constrict the sprawling saga to a feature film format.
I finished reading the trilogy a week or so ago. There is no feasible way to take what was five hundred or so years of conflict and intrigue, and all the attendant characters, and make it into a two-hour movie. Nor even a three-hour movie.
Whatever would come out would be a shell of the story, the characters lifeless, and the plot unable to be followed by the majority of viewers. A tv show is the only way to approach Asimov's story since it allows for longer development of plot lines and encompass the time involved.
But it could be good as a TV series with a continuing arc.

Treaties have to be confirmed by the Senate. This was not, so it has no actual basis in US law.

About time this criminal bitch and her minions to be prosecuted!

"It's her turn." Just like it was Bob Dole's turn.
Wish I could mod this this up. Its so very true of both of their election runs and both ended the same way!
Five actually. You could have voted for Jill Stein, Darrell Castle, or Gary Johnson.
Yea, like they had ANY chance of winning.

No idea what anyone puts up with Verizon / ATT. I'll just continue enjoying my no bullshit Walmart plan.
ATT sucks. My wife swore she would do without a phone before ever using them again and it has been 8 years and she is still saying that.

So what, try working for XPO Logistics

For climate change. A case he cannot win. Yeah, thanks asshole.
Just for the record, why is every person from New York State a jackass?
Its in their DNA, and it afflicks them too, if they move to NY and stay more than 5 years.
I bought in at $600, so you are up more than me. Still I took the family to Disney World last year on the sale of some of my coins profits.
It seems every single NY AG, just uses his position for political gain.

Pretty much how I live now also. Good enough for them is good enough for me.

$3.00 is what I pay for commercial free Pandora.
People who are known to be Facebook users, people who are known to not be Facebook users, and people who might be either one.
Except for a handful of slave children in India, everyone is a Facebook user whether they want to be or not.
In Soviet Russia, no one uses facebook. The rest of the world-facebook uses you!

They were the first love of nearly everyone here in Germany, and de facto the only phone brand people bought. And deserved too.
We didn't even know about its networks division. We started to, when Microsoft brutally rapemurdered Nokia when they were at their weakest.
Most people don't know how many smart and wonderful engineers worked at Nokia. But they should.
So news like this make me happy, in this world of cancer and psychopaths herding morons and shit. Scratch that last part.
(Please don't ruin it, commenters.)
Most likely, Google will ruin this and shut it down like most of their buyouts!
