I think carrying lots of cash is less risky than using debit or credit cards for transactions.
It seems like you lumped credit and debit cards together by the end of your argument, after admitting that you're probably not liable for more than $50 in fraudulent charges on a credit card. If you go with a decent credit card agreement, the customer's often not liable for fraudulent purchases at all. Even assuming the $50 limit you provided, how could you argue that it's better to carry a lot of cash (maximum liability: all you have) than to just carry a credit card (maximum liability: $50)?
I wasn't trying to blame you at all. The/. editors should be reviewing the stories for grammatical errors and correcting them. That they didn't do so implies to me that they aren't really doing their job. While that's nothing new, it's too bad.
A "Guerrilla threat" is only a problem if you are (or someone above you in the chain) squeamish about using high yield weapons on large areas of terrain that may or may not be populated.
I would hope that the government would be squeamish about dropping bombs on US soil, but you never know these days.
The Sprint HTC EVO is 4G, but the iPhone 4 is definitely not 4G. You might want to pay more attention, especially if you plan on being a sarcastic douche about it later.
Despite the FA headline, 'mechanical difficulties' is in fact NOT in an acts of God list. Rather, they added it to their list of 'Force Majeure' events, along with 'acts of God.' From their Contract of Carriage:
Force Majeure Event means any event outside of Carrier’s control, including, without limitation, acts of God, meteorological events, such as storms, rain, wind, fire, fog, flooding, earthquakes, haze, volcanic eruption or any other event, including, without limitation, government action, disturbances or potentially volatile international conditions, civil commotions, riots, embargoes, wars, or hostilities, whether actual, threatened, or reported, strikes, work stoppage, slowdown, lockout or any other labor related dispute involving or affecting Carrier’s service, mechanical difficulties, Air Traffic Control, the inability to obtain fuel, labor or landing facilities for the flight in question or any fact not reasonably foreseen, anticipated or predicted by Carrier.
Likewise, the body of the FA correctly states that both mechanical difficulties and acts of God are in the same list. Of course, that doesn't make for such an eye-grabbing headline...
Soon after [the cloning of Dolly the sheep], the Pope felt obliged to proclaim himself as being against cloning. Ironically, he was unaware that by saying this he was also arguing against the resurrection of Christ, since the Elohim used cloning to resurrect Jesus (see The Message Given By Extra-Terrestrials).

Its like the 40k a year person who wants to look rich by driving a BMW. Sure its flashy but whats underneath?
Uh, quite a bit, actually:
The BMW 3 Series is the company's top seller in the United States and a favorite in the marketplace for good reason: It's a well-built, premium compact vehicle endowed with world-class fit and finish, ample power, and a comfortable ride and handling trade-off that is unmatched by most cars at any price.
If an author doesn't make e-book licenses available, I'm in favor of declaring the work abandoned in the face of expanding technologies and preemptively void copyrights. Owned by Disney, Le Guin, or Susie the cook from down the street.
Even if Susie the cook has enough computer experience to feel comfortable doing this, which she probably doesn't, do you have a free solution to provide to her that will allow her to manage these required licenses in a reasonable and timely fashion?
Can you set up your own server rather than at a rented server at an ISP?
Yup. Whether or not you have to buy the actual game first varies, but most games utilizing this model provide the dedicated server (usually on both Linux and Windows) for you to run wherever you'd like.
For anyone that lives in or near Rhode Island, all IMAX shows in Providence Place are $6 on Tuesdays. It's definitely worth the price of admission; just be sure to preorder your tickets.
Not all of us want our photos, etc. to be publicly available without our permission, especially when there had been an expectation of privacy of that data in the past.
Let's see, we can either sue somebody, or use the helpful selection screen to change our privacy settings back to the way they were.
Facebook has removed the ability for users to opt out of publicly sharing certain information, including their profile photo, networks, and sex. I have every privacy setting set to "Friends Only" or "Friends of Friends," but those things are still publicly viewable in my profile.

Is there a cheap and easy way to prevent people from doing something like this?
Adding a switch or button on the device that controls NFC could prevent that functionality from being activated until the box is opened.
I assume you're looking at the iPhone App Store, as they're still in the Mac one.
Frosty Piss may be an asshole, but at least his submission is better than any of kdawson's.

On top of that, every sentence in the summary contains at least one grammatical error.
It seems like everyone's overlooked this simple fact. I'm not sure why Blizzard doesn't make it clear that this whiner was playing online.
Except that they're completely different services. The only real thing they have in common is that both have something to do with the Internet.
You'll have to watch the video currently embedded on their homepage for it, but they did apologize (in a kind of idiotic fashion):

My Windows password begs to disagree with you.
Hopefully he doesn't decide to get a new monitor any time soon.
It is also the first step in the diplomatic process that can lead to condemnations from the UN, sanctions, or even war.
Would the UN condemn one of the five countries in its own Security Council?
