Unless you're telling me you can outcook professional chefs with decades of experience, as well as all the equipment you don't have at home (i.e. hot pizza ovens, deep-fat fryers, vertical spits, sharp knives).
I can. I have the sharp knives ($250 5 years ago), a pizza stone costs $25, and deep fat fryers are irrelevant to what I like. Pro chefs need to know a lot more than I do: nutrition and staging for 100 or more per night, new menus on a regular basis, and so on. All I need to do is cook for 2, perhaps 6 on rare occasion, which is lots easier. I also have the option of specializing or just learning one or two dishes of a style.
Second off, what if that word doc is a contract or letter of understanding and the guy who opens it is a VP? Do you expect a VP to install OO? Regardless, you can't expect sysadmins to find even obvious things like bootloader corruption when they're so short staffed that they can't even run a push-patching service.
Sure, no problem. Just point to the part of the constitution that allows the fed to strip someone of their citizenship without trial. You also need some definition of enemy combatant that isn't something the executive just made up - if you don't have that stuff, then I guess you'll need a trial for anyone found being a terrorist in this country (not just citizens).
This argument doesn't really hold water with me - sure, torrents are a form of metadata, but it's the magic key that lets you get at that file, so it's as good as holding the file itself.
I dunno - asking the cops what images are CP is a pretty straightforward thing to do. If it were a DMCA thing in the US, you'd require that sort of thing in order to do anything. As I recall, TPB states that CP is one of the things they don't allow, so it isn't as if they're a haven for this sort of thing.
Yeah, I had one like that. It paid pretty well, but I also had to plot a course from the landmarks to the nearest river without anything over 100 feet tall in the way. Kind of odd, now that I think of it.
Here you go: USPS. It's a public company, and it still has a monopoly on letter carrying.
No, it's a quasi-governmental agency. It's only private in that it isn't funded through taxes. It still gets some interesting breaks, especially re: parking tickets and license plates.
It's just this simple: If we put copper-esque regs on Fiber at this point, NO FIBER WILL BE RUN. It would be a disservice to the shareholders of Verizon to spend BILLIONS to roll out fiber networks that its competitors can immediately use "against" them.
Which is why it makes sense for municipalities to run their own last mile networks and rent them out to anyone who wants to use them.
Good to know. I'm just starting out, so my next purchase will most likely be a Tikka T3.308 - 20" barrel and way cheaper ammo, so I can practice a bit more and get my groups down to what the rifle can do.
If the constitution is silent on the matter, it's safe to assume that the feds lack that power - all the constitution does is assert what powers the feds have. It's unfortunate that it's been turned on its head to imply that the feds can do anything not explicitly denied - that's our role.
I've seen that too. The stuff wasn't particularly savory, but it wasn't CP. Therefore, I'd argue that the presence of someone crying CP shouldn't lead to a delist - otherwise, it's like calling someone a communist.
Close - it's sex on the internet with puppets. It's the same thing as a routine for lambada in 2Life. Of course, I can't see it being protected except by copyright.
You just need a better cut suit - I own one (for funerals), and it cost a fair bit, but it's very comfortable and doesn't restrict movement (much - I'm hypermobile). Get something nice from Nordstroms or the high end line from JC Penney and you'll like it.
Actually, that is pretty cool, now that I think about it...*cackle* Wouldn't sound very "business" tho.
Actually, the problem is when you have 50 servers in 3 datacenters and you have to figure out where your box is. Also, who the hell owns hatta, anyway?
Most card issuers offer $0 liability, and so what about the lag time? It takes a week to get the new card, so just use another one. Sure, debit cards are simple, but why risk money in your account when you can risk a few grand of your credit limit instead. Wouldn't wnat that mortgage check to bounce.
Way to take my words out of context. 15% of kids live in poverty (by your source). Of course, this is irrelevant, as we're talking about debt and not poverty. Debt is caused by borrowing. Poverty has a cyclical nature to it - poor parents tend to have poor kids, but debt is only a contributing factor to continued poverty. Making poor decisions, like smoking cigs and going to bars while your kids go shoeless, is what leads to poverty.
Take the average millionaire, remove their money, and give it to some poor person. In 10 years, the formerly rich person will be well on their way to riches, and the poor person will have likely spent their cash on crap and be renting again, but now they're bitter.
That's mostly a matter of upbringing - you can't visit the parents' debts upon the son. Every dollar that you owe is one that you borrowed. Your shrill claims of injustice aside, you haven't really presented anything to refute my argument.
The credit reporting bureaus and the "blame the victim" mentality which you espouse are just sideline distractions to keep people from seeing the truth of the matter.
What truth is that? That people don't want to make loans to people who can't pay them back?
It's just so darn easy to live within your means, isn't it?
Sure is - my debt currently runs about 2.5x my annual income, but I just bought a house, so there you go. Taking today as an example, you have ample opportunity to avoid debt just by hard work and a bit of ambition.
I like how you go ahead and assume that there are a significant portion of people in 'that boat' without any sort of evidence, then call me out for daring to question your dogma. Most poor people are there because of their decisions. Sure, it's hard to climb out of that hole, but doing things like buying a new truck you can't afford don't help.

So we should just not trade with people with lower standards? That would be illegal now. Against the WTO practices.
It's only illegal until we decide that it isn't - the WTO has little pull with sovereign nations.

I have a solution to the arab-israel conflict, but I don't think anybody would go for killing the extremists on both sides.
Yeah, I had one like that. It paid pretty well, but I also had to plot a course from the landmarks to the nearest river without anything over 100 feet tall in the way. Kind of odd, now that I think of it.
Seriously, six nines costs a lot of money -- is it really necessary?
Sure - ever have a heart attack?

Please name one or two. Bonus points if they're less than a meter (small gun safe).

Fulcrum of Evil, MBA has a nice ring.
Joke's on her - around here (Seattle), $500k gets you an average house. That or you have to get a biggish one out is the 2nd ring burbs.

Yeah, but let's be honest - most people aren't in that boat.
