Typical liberal with the name calling and threats of violence.
Firstly, I don't believe a word of what you said. I don't see why anyone would with your horrid attitude. If you're willing to "beat some sense" into someone what's to stop you from being the typical lying leftist occupy wall street type?
Anyway, as for welfare, food stamps etc. Maybe you should kept it in your pants and not burdened the tax payers? If what you say is to be believed then where is the mom to help out? Where was your family? If you're honest and did do all of those things, why hadn't you gotten your act together before that? Why should I or anyone else pay for your bad behavior?
Good for you if you got it together later. I had a kid young also. I've never collected so much as a dime fromt he government. I'm rather proud of that fact. It's a shame you're proud of the opposite.
Many people do benefit from these programs. J.K. Rowling for example wrote the first HP book while on "benefits" as they call them in the UK. But people like her are an extremely small minority. The majority turn the safety net into a safety hammock and leach off society for multiple generations.
You're assuming it will work in Unity. Judging by the overall quality of Canonicals work the last two years I have no choice but to remain skeptical. Nevermind the obvious questions of "How useful is this?" and "How intuitive will it be?" the merely lack of stability and usability in general coming from Unity leaves me skeptical.
Mod this way up. This is a major deal breaker. This should infact be illegal, just because you used their free tool to make the final product does not give them exclusivity on YOUR work.
Send the robot to Mars with the materials needed and small group of astronauts and "print" up a Mars base for future missions to reside in.
The uses for this on Earth are few and far between as I see it but in space where work environments for humans is hostile to say the least, the process could be monumental.
I used my vacation time this year. First time in 13 years I've actually taken a full vacation. Two weeks later I was let go. Luckily I have a new job already but this is a very real problem.
As for the reason I was let go? It was trumped up BS. I was a model employee, multiple promotions, commendations etc. Never had I been under any disciplinary action.
Calling google a monopoly is repugnant. We still have tons of choices (ironically we have most of these choices because of google). Google isn't so much a monopoly as just a parasite. They leach ad revenue off anything and everything they can. They latch themselves on pretty firmly but it's still quite possible to ditch them.
If anyone reading like this is like me and upset with google then the best thing you can do to remove them is to stop using "google" as a verb. Start "searching" and correct people when they use google as a verb too. Don't hand the internet over to them so handily.
Ive stopped using google because of all this Plus nonsense. No Chrome, gmail, search, nothing. I switched all my service elsewhere. Maybe google will turn the ship around but I doubt it. They seem like the are on a downward slide, maybe they just got too arrogant.
Well, in your case it was easy enough, even had they left something in. I've seen stories where someone had a sponge in them for a very long time and eventually died of septic shock. Foreign objects inside the human body can cause a lot of damage, even death.
Luckily in your case someone eventually realized the problem. Glad you're alright by the way.
So you got to keep your house that you obviously can't afford because you were dumb enough to take out an adjustable rate loan thanks to tax payer money? You sir are the problem. People like you have been leaching off society for damn near 4 decades now. You're all glad and happy the government bailed your sorry ass out when you weren't man enough to take responsibility for your decisions and actions.
Why didn't you sell the house? Why didn't you rent it out? Why did you refinance repeatedly? How can you look yourself in the mirror now that you've taken such obvious charity from the rest of us? How fucking dare you lecture me on the merits of Obama and his wealth redistribution. You're a leach. Shame on you.
Exactly. An Unlocked iPhone 4S costs more than an iPad 2. There is no reason for the unlocked phone to cost what it does. The price is artificially inflated to make it look like you are getting a huge amount off in subsidy.
I can buy an unlocked phone but it does not reduce the cost I pay monthly by one cent. If I buy a locked phone I get 400-500 off the price of the device and my monthly bill stays the same.
It doesn't take a genius to figure out which road to take here.
Communication and experience. Far too many people are pessimistic and just figure the boss is the bad guy. All it takes usually is to approach and talk and work it out. Experience will give them the ability to interpret and understand the communications and make an educated decision as to whether that job is a good fit or whether they should move on to another.
Granted the present economy makes this difficult but everyone, including management, needs to drop the entitlement mentalities that are so abundant these days. All anyone can do is their best. If you're doing less than your best then there can be no complaint if you aren't rewarded. This applies doubly to management.
A lot of corporations require long signatures with disclaimers and terms etc. Usually they plant a bunch of corporate logos in there too. The size of the emails sounds about right.
I had an Epic 4G. The upgrades were slim to none, taking almost 8 months to get Froyo. I eventually found ACSyndicate who make great roms for the device, including a 4.0 rom that was very well done minus the ability to use 4G.
I had to dump the device last week in favor of an iPhone though. I just can't deal with the fragmentation in Android devices, the lack of software upgrades, the sketchy nature of custom roms and the horrible device support from companies like Samsung.
Samsung blew it so bad on this device I've personally skipped out on buying their other products, including TV and Blue-ray players. I've also convinced my friends and family to go with other manufacturers because of it. If Samsung thinks their actions have no effect on their other products lines, they are sadly mistaken.
You get promotions and raises by going above and beyond and making yourself valuable to the company. If you "stick to your pay grade" then that's all you'll ever be. When I look to promote someone I specifically look for things they've done to help the company/department. I look for innovation and drive. If you took the liberty to do it, you're reward is in the good faith you generate with your superiors. That will eventually pay off big when it comes time for a raise or promotion.
A job title and description is not a contract meaning "this is what I do and nothing else." If you choose to do nothing else, you'll never be noticed.
The question isn't about Climate Change. It's about whether HUMANS are causing that change. Something I will admit to being skeptical about but am interested in seeing real data not corrupted by oil companies or extreme left wing professors interested more in grants than science.
The problem occurs when people start making policy based on fear. Our system in the US is designed to be very slow, the thought being that if things are slowed down and debate is forced on policy makers better decisions will be made. In practice our politicians have found ways around this by using fear and sensationalism. Just a year or two ago I recall the UN saying climate change would lead to end of the world scenarios in only 6-9 months. Al Gore has said very similar things about rising water levels, onyl to turn around and buy a multi-million dollar home right on the beach.
Politicians love fear. Fear will make you vote for them, it will bring you to the edge of reason and beyond to act exactly as they wish you too. Case in point, the adds against Paul Ryan showing him pushing old people in wheelchairs off of cliffs. The add recently by Newt Gingrich equating his political situation in the caucuses to Pearl Harbor. Politicians will say anything they can to make you afraid, or to align themselves as the good guys while their opponents are the bad guys.
They all do it, left or right. One side claims doing anything about climate change will bankrupt the world and make us all into Zimbabwe where they haul wheel barrows full of money to the store in order to buy bread, while the other side claims we'll all be dead in massive storms like in the movies.
The only answer to these assholes is to vote third party and stop donating to them. There is no logical reason why we have only two parties in the country with any power. The binary nature of our political system is what makes it so ripe for abuse. Voting MATTERS. Stop buying into either sides bullshit.
Siri is beta and was once available on the older devices before it was picked up by Apple. Once it is out of beta Apple may very well open it up to iPhone 4 users. There is no technical reason why they can't do it. The beta is allowing them to scale their server side up with 4S owners before a wider release.

Have fun using your monthly bandwidth cap in 30 minutes. LTE is worthless for anyone that know's it's limitations with the carriers right now.

This is so unethical it's scary.

Let's just say, it's a computer company with a very fruity name.
In the future Gnome3 will require SystemD which is Linux only.

Yes but The Duck uses Bing which tracks you just the same as Google.

It reminds me of those surgery horror stories where the surgeon or staff leaves behind clamps and sponges inside the persons body.
Shit happens. All we can really do is our very best to try and prevent it, but ultimately, we're human and prone to mistakes.
