You mean you don't want to take a panorama of your office or bedroom? Or maybe you can just hike to the top of a mountain with a folding table on your back. Better exercise that way.
It was a ridiculous suit in the first place. Every OS bundles core applications - including now web browsers. People never had an issue switching off of IE even with it installed by default and the decline in usage of IE had nothing to do with the anti-trust settlements.
All of this was a huge waste of time. There are far better targets out there to attack (like oil, banking, etc.) but they have better lobbyists.
It means if you buy a cell phone without a contract, however, you can unlock it. Contracts are still bound by contract law. This wouldn't change that. If you want to save a ton of money by tethering yourself to a particular vendor then that is your choice.
A) The government is not controlling anything in this case. it is just saying that shareholders be allowed to veto big raises and golden parachutes for outgoing failed executives.
B) The government in the US has lots of rules that may not "control" a deal but that do make sure things are handled in a way that is fair to the shareholders and to the public. For example, if all the makers of widgets got together and said - hey let's raise all of our prices by 100% - then that would be price collusion/fixing and illegal.
C) Just because the government has rules for deals doesn't mean it invalidates property and creates communism. I am not even sure how you made that creative leap.
D) Pro sports players aren't even in the ballpark (excuse the pun) of the folks we are talking about. They are high profile and get a lot of attention but the "1%" is worth 1000 times most athletes.
E) Socialism enforced by people with guns? First. There is no completely socialist country in the world. There are many that come close. Some, like Canada, are more socialistic than the US and I don't see them using guns up there to enforce it.
You should probably look up the difference between Communism and Socialism before you post. Not to mention this isn't really Socialism. That would be equal sharing - not just reigning in the disparity between the top 1% and the other 99%.
I just see no point in upgrading to Windows 8. Windows 7 has been the best OS I've used in the last 20 years - and I've tried almost everything.
I agree with you on the Office ribbon thing - we went through the same thing here - but the thing is there was enough plus sides to upgrading to offset it. What exactly is the plus side of Windows 8?
I would think that environmental concerns are something the government should be regulating. It's not something that free market can solve because the cheapest typically will win and that usually is the worst option.
I agree on the food thing but it's a different issue altogether.
Hasn't Fox News been pulling this trick for years? It's awful how people get money from the government - except, of course, our viewers who are primarily on medicare and social security. Ignore the man behind the curtain.
That may be true but makes no sense in context. Why would he follow up his comment about Steve Jobs being a pioneer in digital music "sales" with how he listens to Albums at home. He was clearly talking about the quality of digital music - not how it is sold.
How does he figure that? Digital Music was around for years before the iPod and mp3 players existed 2 years before it was released. He definitely was a pioneer in marketing it but not in the technology itself.
Not sure if you are being sarcastic or what but you realize that when you take a million dollar life insurance policy out it isn't so that your family is rich if you die. It's to replace the years of missed earning opportunities with your passing.
If you are a serious shooter then you know that there are tons of things buried in menus already that you have to take your eye away from the viewfinder from to use. I am not talking about getting rid of everything - just making the stuff that is already menu based easier to use.
Well like I said - the stuff that you are changing constantly - like aperture and shutter speed - you need to have the same controls for. And maybe even still basic functionality in the existing buttons but more advanced in the touchscreen. I mean as somebody who loves playing with HDR I would love more complex and flexible bracketing options without having to do anything but click my cable release because every time I have to touch the camera again there is a risk of movement.

Well in this case you'd have to continue paying for the car but it no longer can move.
There are reports that his brother actually drove over him trying to escape so it isn't clear what actually killed him.

Definitely more gimicky than practical.
Youngest Cardinal is 53 and he is from India. I don't think he was much in the running. Not a huge clamor for an Indian pope.
Most of the security holes we've seen in the last several years, though, have been based on plugins and really don't depend on a particular browser.
I also have never seen IE pop up on my machine.

The President can order it to not be enforced but he couldn't tell the Librarian to change his rules. Different branch.
This would go against Verizon - not for - so not sure what your point is. What executive order is restricting guns right now?
But yes as commander in chief he can call the shots in this factitious "War on Terror" - including using drones.
I didn't say that anymore. I said they didn't use guns to enforced their socializes policies.

If the company commits fraud then the "C" level people most assuredly can be held accountable and go to jail. It's what happened with Enron.
Not so much the Board, though, since they typically wouldn't be involved with the day to day operations of a company.

So you are saying that we are basically done with inventing and discovering new technologies and should just stop?
And every economist in the world will tell you that austerity is the absolute worst way to get yourself out of a recession.
What makes you say I didn't? Slackware for several years and then Fedora. Best server OS but for desktop absolutely unusable.

Except it doesn't really work that way. And either way - Romney included those in his 47%. Without it his number is wrong.

Focus and Zoom are controlled by me moving adjusting the lens directly. I am not sure how that could be changed by software.
