Problem is that they're not lying. I got into this fight with Robert Dyas, only to be proved wrong. After 6 months, the customer has to prove that the defect was a design or manufacturing defect to be eligible for free replacement or repair.
No, not really. That is one of their lies twisting the words of the law. If the product is damaged, you need to prove that it wasn't the damage that caused of the defect. If the product is unharmed the assumption is always that the defect was inherent in the product.
A few companies does this. The trick is to tell them you know the law, and they fold automatically. They just lie initially with the intention to defraud the less knowledgable, once you show you are not an idiot and insist on your rights they usually fold rather quickly.
went in to the fat paychecks and bonuses of all the bigshots & executives in the businesses
Well, they WERE the ones to come up with the innovative business plan of screwing over the customers, and they WERE the ones playing golf with politicians, and sending money in their general directions. For once it sounds like they gave the bonuses to the people that actually had something to do with bringing the money in... Now, that doesn't happen very often, does it?
I'm sort of skeptical about this claim since I haven't seen anything supporting it in my life or in literature. I don't know why it would even happen. I don't know which nutrient you can't get plenty of through a vegan diet.
You CAN get it. It is just not automatic by just making the choice to become vegan without knowing anything more. If know several vegans, and they are all quite fit, but they also essentially nutrition experts. We were talking about malnutrition, and this is just the form it mostly presents in vegans. But like all non-vegans are not obese, not all vegans are malnourished.
That's not a problem, that's a good thing! But nobody has 14 years worth of B12 stored!
No, but we do have B12, it just not in storage. That is why vegans ends up so thin and crazy, to get necessary nutrients, the body starts to break down muscle and brain tissue.
The interesting part is not that half the test subjects fail to notice the changes. The interesting part is that, when asked to provide argument, about half the test subjects will argue *against* the position they held when they answered the unaltered question.
It is already know in cognitive science that it is common for people to form their arguments by rationalising their conclusions. This is just a new clever way of proving this effect by changing their conclusions while they were not looking.
In Canada, some private colleges and universities provide curriculum that sits outside the norm of what is mandated by the provinces. There is a standard to which they have to apply and cram everything in. But a lot of schools also 'do more with less time'. So yes, a 'custom-created' book isn't all that unusual in some cases.
So the perk of going to an expensive high prestige school is art books without art?:D
You only throw away your vote when you vote for someone who doesn't represent your interests,
Spot on. Forget about who wins or looses. As a voter you can only buy a politician by not voting for him, because this gives him a direction he can go in to get more votes. Voting for them means they don't have to care about you.
Let me correct: ARM 64-bit is still a few years away.
Away from what, your pocket? Sure, there is not yet a need for tablets with 4Gbyte of memory. But ARM 64-bit is not some far away dream, it just doesn't make much sense yet.
None of this statement is true. GPU accelerating the transparency effects around windows don't require a lot of power, and the benefit is noticeable, not all that important, but it does exist.
More importantly. Even if it isn't visibly noticeable. It can be noticed on the battery life. Windows 8 is GPU accelerated to improve battery life, probably not because it needs it to be able provide 60fps for very basic graphical effects.
If it isn't built in from the start, multi-channel will never work well.
1. Formats that hasn't been planned for it, will lack stuff like declaring WHAT the channels are. AC3 for instance can have 4-channel left-center-right-back, or 4-channel left-right-leftback-leftright. So just knowing you have 4 channels is USELESS. 2. It will lack optimizations similar to joined-stereo, so you achieve good bit-rates by not encoding the similarities between all the channels over and over again.
My alarm clock is a really bright mass of incandescent gas.
Personally I prefer a ball of thermonuclear plasma, unfortunately I don't live on a farm, and at what time the sun rises is completely irrelevant to when I need to get out of bed.
If it includes fuel. then I am surprised it isn't higher. An empty house with all the light turned off uses between 1-2kW just from running refrigerator, freezer and stand-by power for all the electronic junk plus heating and/or air-conditioning (well 3-4kW if A/C is actually turned on).
Minority governments, however you get them, are dominated by figuring out who is easiest to pander to on any given bill,
Yes, but that is A GOOD THING.
This means a single party can not simply institute whatever idiocy that comes into their minds.
1. If they want to pass something extremely one-sided, they will fail. 2. If they want to pass something moderately one-side, they will have to trade by passing something one-sided to another direction 3. If they want to pass something everybody agrees on, they have no problems
2 and 3 is what we call good governing. Note option 2, you apparently dislike so much has the build-in feature of optimizing passing of laws best satisfies the will of the people. A sort of free-market if you will of ideas for government, where the cheapest and best working ideas stand the best chance of being passed.
We're talking about raw meat: Sliced animals, ready to prepare and consume.
No, we are talking about sources of parasitic infections. Which are raw meat and organic vegetables.
The problem with organic foods is not the meat it is the vegetables, vegetables can have parasites if they haven't been sprayed against it, and especially if you use natural fertilizers and especially if you don't clean the vegetables because they look more authentic with a bit of dirt on them. In other words organic vegetables is a perfect storm for parasites.
Right, the high speed limits of course shouldn't apply to trucks, that would be stupid and not just against national laws, but natural ones. Even on the German autobahn trucks are limited to 55 or 60mph and are required to keep a black-box that constantly measures and records their speed.
Driving 41 miles at 85 mph vs 75 mph saves a whole 4 minutes. Seems kinda pointless.
Calculate how many lives that saves.
Imagine a well-traffic road which has 100.000 people driving it every day, if raising the speed-limit saves each person 4 minutes per day. That is 400.000 minutes or 280 days saved each day. Which is 280 years saved every year, or 4 human life-times.
The other point is people regularly drive over the speed limit, regardless of the speed. SO when you are doibng 85, some a hole is doing 120. Drive at 120 is different the 65 and 85. Wind and air pressure at 120 can cause you to lose control.
A car going past you at 120mph is not going to give you nearly as much turbulence as overtaking a truck doing 60mph. In fact one of the reasons a fast car can go 120mph is because it doesn't cause a lot of turbulence. It can be a bit of a shock to be overtaken by someone going 150mph, when you are already going 100mph in Germany, but beyond the surprise it is not affecting you.
I do not make that distinction, but more important for the discussion, neither does the courts. What matters for the courts is if it would mislead a "reasonable person".
x32 is not IA32. It is actually AMD64 binaries using 32bit pointers. That way you get the small datastructures from 32bit, and the extra registers from x86 64bit mode.

A ringworld? Still an insane idea, but a few magnitudes less insane.

No, they fed all the gummy bears to the cows, so now there is none for the pigs.
No, seriously. I read that on slashdot!

It is right there in the presentation. Black bars around most apps until they are upgraded.
I admit that is only an aesthetic defect, but aesthetics seems to be a major concern for many Apple fans.

No there isn't.
All coffee commercials put soap in the coffee to make the foam the top look better and last longer.
But it turns out the coffee rarely contain when you buy it. Liars!
