Depending on the set of numbers that you use from this study, "adjusting radio/cassette/CD" causes between 1.5% and 3% of all automobile crashes.
I hooked my ipod into my mr2 (manual, natch) by way of the tape deck and left the iwred remote thing between the shifter and P-brake. With its known position and four buttons, it was easier than changing channels on my radio.
If using an iPod causes a fatal automobile accident, will some victim of such an accident eventually try to sue Apple?
Interesting how you separate your stats by skin color. Mind expanding on the settlement that is being paid out? Also, is that settlement included in the per-head education cost?
I'm just saying that it's not a bad idea to prohibit kids from buying them, same as we prohibit them from buying porn, booze, and tobacco. It's a little something I like to call "common sense".
And if you want to do that, then be prepared to hold movies to the same standard. Right now, a kid is allowed to buy R rated movies if he wants to, so why not video games?
"Off Shaw" is NOT a misspelling according to a spell checker. Its a homophone, which means that to correct it (and anyother such mistake) I'd have to look up every word I typed in a dictionary.
Yes it is a misspelling, and no, a homophone is a single word. If you knew anything about what you were talking about, you'd be able to spell offshore correctly and wouldn't have to use a dictionary.
That's not the point. Every service is a potential security hole. Turn them on only if they're needed.
Guess how literate the vast majority of these users are. I'll give you a hint: Well worded dialogs haven't done enough to prevent these problems before.
Yeah, most users are illiterate, or they just don't read, but well worded dialogs are in the distinct minority.
Ah yes, tapping into the sequestered nerd stereotype. Tell me, would controlling a smaller set of breasts to some degree be a lesser achievement? I find that breasts look best when matched to the women who own them. Since I like smaller women, they tend to have smaller boobs. Eh, whatever.
Listen baby, with a lot of these substances, the first time you put them into your body may indeed be your choice. The second and subsequent times generally are not.
How the hell does this explain carding for peaches?!
IANAL, but your machine is manipulating those bytes as they go by, and therefore you're tampering with their communications which may be legally protected.
Of course, you're doing that already by routing them at all. I'd like to see what protections exist for this sort of thing - apparently nothing is being recorded.
Say what? Why do you have to bring kiddy porn into this? It's enough to say that you don't want leeches. And how is this insightful? Mods must be smoking crack again.
Sounds like one of those 'your job is your credit' or 'guaranteed financing' places. They sometimes make a business of selling the same car multiple times and reposessing it after a few months when someone misses a payment.
I would've just cancelled, denied the contract, and then challenge the debt as illegitimate on the basis that I had never been informed that they expected a 2 year contract, much less agreed to one.
US consumers have voted with their dollars, they would rather have the Motorola Razor for $50 than have an easier time switching providers.
Speak for yourself. I got mine for $230, but it's unlocked and I can upload mp3s as ringtones if I like, or even go to DE and buy a prepaid sim there. You can too - just go to amazon.

,i>What happens when Apple changes the interface? You don't expect them to keep the same dock connector forever.
Why yes, I do. it's not like there's anything on the horizon that would obsolete the current interface.

If you can't lets your kids play outside unsupervized because of crime, it's rather uncivilized.
Yeah, but who wants to live in Detroit?
Yeah, so if you're praying, don't expect an answer too quickly.

'm: against media censorship, against gay marraige (but not against civil unions and gay couples having all "married couple" benefits)
So, you're in favor of gay marriage, you just don't want your church to support it, right? That's far simpler and easier to implement.

Nah, they've passed laws that require cameras to make a noise when a picture is taken, apparently to foil voyeurs.
Modern computers have the resources.

Sounds like someone's projecting.
Clerks 2 had a $5M budget (probably due to the mooby stuff being on a set). By hollywood standards, that's damn low.
That wasn't a sequel, it was a trilogy. The difference between the two is that a trilogy is conceived as such.

all that stuff Amazon sells that isn't books and DVDs... well, who cares?
Yeah, it isn't like Amazon has watches, sporting goods, and just about anything that doesn't require special permits to sell.

If your bicycle, car, home, or bank account is unsecured, permission to use it is implied...
Not true, but if you leave all your money in a pile by your door, then you have little recourse when someone take it.
IANAL, but your machine is manipulating those bytes as they go by, and therefore you're tampering with their communications which may be legally protected.

Guess why they have those fees. Might it have to do with the "free" phone you got when you signed the contract?
Then explain why they won't give you monthly service (save for prepaid) without a 2 year contract.
where the hell do you finance your car through?
Sounds like one of those 'your job is your credit' or 'guaranteed financing' places. They sometimes make a business of selling the same car multiple times and reposessing it after a few months when someone misses a payment.
More importantly, you have someone to fix the problem so you don't get woken up.
Are you saying that they're redating the debt? That's illegal, and you may be able to extract damages from them.
