I think you must have miss-read the subject. Everyone knows that people who can fuck themselves never leave the house, much less hang around a workplace waiting for exiting employees to storm out of the building,
You nuke me, I nuke you.
You attack with a conventional army I respond in kind.
You use guerrilla warfare, I use special ops.
Use terrorism? Right back at you with drones - you never know when it will strike.
When you buy Kleenex or Band-Aids, or Scotch Tape, I think you are aware that you are not getting those brands if you just buy tissue, bandages or cellophane tape.
In this case, even if the two devices were identical, what would it matter? Confusing the product you see in use would be free advertizing for Apple, would it not? I mean, when YOU went out to buy a tablet to be cool, you would go shopping for one of those "iPad" things, right?
There should only be a legal case if a competing tablet's PACKAGING were deceptive. Buying a table is not like picking an apple off a pile of fruit (no pun intended). Nobody is going to "accidentally" purchase a "SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB" when they meant to get an "Apple iPad". Even monkey's can tell the difference in those groups of letters.

Yeah, but the problem is that the introduced pest is a yucky insect.
If only a bunch of cute Koala Bears had been introduced to eat the California eucalyptus tress, all would be forgiven!
I am wonder - is Ticket Number 0001 discounted or not? I mean being the first might prestigious, but you have to then wonder if Ticket Number 0002 refundable if things don't go so well...
1. Why is a programming language successful? - Because programmers use it.
2. Why do programmers use it? - Because it provides paying jobs.
3. Why does it provide paying jobs? - Because it is possible to economically do useful things.
4. Why makes a programming language economical? - Terse efficiency, not obtuse coolness.
5. Why do programmers choose a particular language? - They want to use a programming language that is successful.

Windows 8 looks pretty much like Windows 7, if you turn off the "Metro" Interface.
Windows 7 = ver 6.1
Windows 8 = ver 6.2
Edit "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RPEnabled" to have a value of 0 and reboot. Now the start button works like you want. You don't have to leave the desktop. Put Metro back by setting it to 1, of course.
I think "metro" is an apt name - it is basic transportation for the smelly masses, and you only see it when it is in your way, or you want to be somewhere else. That said, it is a good interface for people who mostly do just a few things.
I haven't used Win8 much yet, but it seems pretty snappy - who knows maybe Microsoft made it more efficient for tablets, but you can get the benefits using it like a desktop.
Heh, confusion is one thing, but you want some "art" to really rile things up, I am sure you could do an Islamic themed variation on some of the work of Serrano that would do the trick.
Just because someone wants just the broad strokes doesn't make them a bad person.
Knowing ABOUT something is half the battle to knowing HOW to do something. I don't need to know how to do the math myself to appreciate the concept of what it is doing.
Just one look at the math for something like this makes they eyes of most people glaze over, and they don't even know it exists. Even without being able to solve those equations themselves, a "comic book" version of it, if done well, might make more people appreciate stuff they "use" every day.
With all the government entitlement spending being put on the "credit card" of "future generations", don't forget to raise the MAXIMUM benefit age along with the raising the MINIMUM benefit age. No sense in creating more pesky loopholes to deal with later...
I don't think grantspassalan's rhetorical troll would cite any of the laws you mentioned. Clearly he was referring only to the stupid ones, but I really don't feel like feeding your straw man troll tonight. Feed him yourself, if trolls eat anything that you can legally feed them.
How Internet smart are you? (And, for a bonus point is it correct to capitalize Internet?)
I can see it both ways - the youth will be jaded with familiarity about how the world works (wait - new patent idea = "how the worlds works + ON THE INTERNET") vs the wisdom of the more experienced... I don't have a good sample - my kids, are, well, young(er) AND smart, so I have confounding factors in my data points... but they don't believe half the shit on the Internet as it is. How old is the phrase "caveat emptor", anyhow? And yet, a sucker is born every minute...
Bottom line; Everything evens out at an ever higher level of subtlety, as far as the trees go, but the rhythm of the forest remains the same.
IANAE, but it seems to me if you lower the "supposed rates" you make the loophole shenanigans less worthwhile and therefore often raise the effective tax collected. Meanwhile, "subsidies" would be under the previous mention of "spending problem"... the two in combination (high rates and unfounded subsidies) are especially motivating for "clever" players to work the system.
At least the way politics is practiced today. It would be a calamity for politicians if a majority of the electorate could critically think about what candidates say.
...One could argue, even less than symbolic, it could be counter productive. Breaking Western economies only drives all the production to less environmentally friendly areas of the world.

I'll bet he legally acquired the tear gas too.
It's a good think he ONLY used tear gas and guns and not road flares and gasoline.
You can't regulate crazy. Well, they used to, but not any more.
Of course "boobs" is specific to women.
Now THAT's sexist! Most boobs I know are male.

A calf with two heads? Do you have any idea how awesome that brand of head cheese would be? They could probably charge double per lb.

How about this standard?
