That may be true, but what if during the repair you did something that trickled down and impacted other components? Is the manufacturer still liable for the components that you incidentally broke?
No, of course not, but they would have to prove that, it is EXTREMELY fucking unlikely, so they would need EXTREME fucking evidence to have that hold up in court.
Every component looks so high end in an iphone, I cannot imagine any of those reproduced by a third party. Maybe the ribbon cables.
What are you blathering about you sheep. They are ALL made by third parties, and most of them are not high-end. Apple is infamous for using as low quality components as they can get away with.
I can certainly understand that our political leaders shouldn't take bribes. Obviously that's bad.
But even more obviously, I can understand a human being having a great deal of trouble turning down millions of bribery dollars for favours that don't kill anybody.
You'll never get, even honest people to stop taking casual bribes
Please, for the love of God, stop defending corruption and try visting less corrupt countries. You will get people stop taking casual bribes. There will be a few sociopaths still doing corruption, but you don't see it being commonplace.
I'm avoiding cryptocurrency because I don't understand anything more than the basics but the guy in the baseball cap comes across like a spoiled brat, constantly name-dropping economists, brags about how many economics books he's read, and argues based on anecdotes and emotions instead of logic.
Of course they are all of the Trump school of economics.. Yell the loudest, pretend to be the biggest and never back down, or back anything up!
No. The communication needs go both ways, this is not TV we are talking about. There is an antenna in each phone that can send just as strong signals as a cell tower but only one at a time
Unfortunately the USB standards says an official certified device may not rely on Audio Accessory mode being present, so they are forced to also have fallback logic, which is expensive, power draining, and dumb (in this case).
if( (result = expensive_function()) > somevalue ) { do_stuff(result); } It can be convenient and concise to do an assignment in a test, but you're a dumbass who resists knowledge and will probably double down and say it isn't valid because pascal doesn't let you and who cares if you have to do the same thing with more lines of code.
There is even a C++ extension for it now, so you can declare the score there too.
if (auto *ptr = get_maybe_ptr()) do_stuff_on_definitely_ptr(ptr);
You can't build enough housing in a city. There's no room for it and building up is expensive. The only way to have lower rents is to decentralize. Besides, as long as people think they should move to the cities despite the skyrocketing rents, the rents are not too high, obviously. Supply and demand.
There is plenty of room in Berlin, lots of areas with old industrial ex-communist factory ruins that are not yet rebuild, because the first areas to be rebuild was all the prime real-estate that was made available by taking the 100s of kilometers wall that went through the city down. And the area around Berlin is uninhabitated swamp land.
I'm not talking about more single/multi family homes. We need more 15 story urban apartment bricks around each transit stop. The population density should approach 10k people per transit stop at that density you can also support multiple food marts and other retailers to fight the tyranny of the local merchant while preserving a car free/walkable environment.
There is plenty being build in Berlin, it is one big construction site. But all the new apartments are going to be high price as that would make the builders the highest profits.
As for your transit stop estimates, that is complete BS in Europe. We have closer to 500 inhabitants per public transport stop, and that shouldnt go any higher.
In America wages are going down. In particular we've got high paid work being replaced by low paid (e.g. good factory jobs replaced by "McJobs"). If you're wages are going down then it doesn't really matter if inflation's only 4%.
In Berlin they are going up, since the wages are lower than German and EU averages, as the city is slowly westernized, so are the salaries (most of the city was Eastern Europe 25 years ago, and not everything is restorated yet).
On the other hand, if this is accurate, this IS evidence of the Deep State and if true, staffers in the WH that are more powerful than the President.
I think regardless of the rhetoric around this op-ed, I think it's a carefully constructed message which is either by the Trump camp himself to drum up support for their cause or the Deep State trying to warn a sitting President not to mess with them "or else".
DUDE, this guy was appointed by Trump, he was a Trump supported Trump brought in!!!!!!!!
I had fully expected the Republican party to start fracturing after Trump won the primaries and then the presidency. I was surprised when the majority of his Republican critics turned around and started toadying up to him. I wonder if after the midterms and their jobs are safe for awhile longer if they dare to criticize again, but as unpredictable as things have been I'm probably wrong.
And you can't fix the first-past-the-post system without changing the constitution, and that's highly unlikely. What you want is a change in the electorate to start favoring more moderates and centrists even in the primaries. California has a system now where the top two winners of primaries advance to the general election, even if from the same party. Hasn't been around long though so it's unclear if this will make a clear difference in the long run. Given that both major parties bitterly opposed it, it's probably a good idea.
And I have come to the conclusion after several decades, that loyalty to a political party is the biggest vice in America.
It is up to the states how they assigned their electors. It used to be more states than just Maine had the decency and balls to split their electors fairly.
No, monopolies are shit, always. Large centralized organizations are shit. These facts are universal and regardless of whether we are talking about government or private business. if you let your capitalist society devolve into privatized communized, then yes, you lose all the benefits of well-working free markets.
This is why we need a contextual ranking system. Instead of giving the driver 1-5 stars, you mark that you prefer them either more or less than the previous driver. Then the software would use the Condorcet method to rank all drivers in order from least to most preferred, and assign each driver a percentile rank from 1% to 99%. This flattens the distribution curve and provides more granularity into how well each driver is liked.
It's like California's restaurant inspection grading system. Everyone's an "A" so it's tough to compare.
No, for inspections it makes sense, anything below A means they are doing something wrong that could have serious health implications. But it makes no sense for a service grade.

This book is much simpler, and much much worse
Sounds like good reasons to change banks.

Also because there is no proven danger of exceeding the official limits
It was no experiment. It was a gimmick, and 100% achieved its purpose of being gimicky, which was all Apple ever wanted.
The original price should be below $1, so yes that is offensive.

Sure the prices are going up, but much slower than they used to, and Berlin is still by far the cheapest capital in Western Europe
Please remember the Steele Dossier and it's vaguely cited anonymous sources. Please remember how accurate it has turned out to have been.
Everything in it except one detail has already been proven true and cooperated, and the last detail could still be true, but we might never know?
Are you making the argument anonymous sources are trustworthy due to how incredibly accurate that one Dossier turned out to be?
On the other hand, if this is accurate, this IS evidence of the Deep State and if true, staffers in the WH that are more powerful than the President.

help me God. Sigh. What's wrong with you guys?
If there is a god, perhaps He will help.
If there is no god, it can't hurt to ask.
It can hurt. I suspect stupidity is contagious and US politics is my petridish.
So in Cyprus are there 1000 Cypriot films worth seeing? What about in Malta?
Here is a trick:
Netflix could make a Greek-language version an offer it in greek-speaking countries.
Or even crazier: They could make their service pan-european, so only 30% would have to be produced in Europe. They are choosing their own buckets.

With constant sneering "fuck you" messages like this, is it any wonder the Americans are withdrawing from the world?
There was no sneering in GP, just a statement of fact. The only one sneering here is you because you got your pride hurt.

It is a wargame "square".. The question is: Who is playing?
