You know...someone that cannot be troubled to take the small amount of time and effort to register to vote, and go to the poll to vote, likely is also NOT the type of person to take any amount of time to study the issues or people up for election and therefore, not someone I'd actively encourage to make a vote.
No vote is better than an ill-informed / non-informed vote.
You're just one small step away from a poll tax or an intelligence test. Watch it, buster.
Of course the decision didn't explicitly state that the corporation should be treated as a person, but the effect is essentially the same. Hobby Lobby can avoid complying with the ACA based on religious freedom. You did a great job of not seeing the forest for the trees.
You mean the far left, don't you. The only people I hear claiming that corporations are leftists. Nobody on the right has made that claim and no court within the US has ever issued such an opinion.
Then you must be deaf. The supreme court (controlled by the Right) has said so. See Hobby Lobby, Citizens United.
Time to get that dot eatting trollop. Running around with none thing else but a pink bow tie, not even strategically placed.
Not to mention the various displays she allowed of herself on the arcade cabinet.
Especially bad was all that swallowing of dots. What a whore!
Making the argument that the Earth as been geo-engineered for humans is preposterous. 2/3's of it is covered with water we can't drink! Large swaths are covered with desserts and mountain ranges. There are earthquakes and volcanoes, etc.
And do you really think the answer you get from said register-operator is dependent on you spending cash instead of credit? Retailers like to complain about the cost of taking credit cards, but really their sales volume is greatly increased by them. If that weren't the case, they wouldn't take them.
You won't get any discount, it will only increase retailers profit. They are not going to charge you less for using CurrentC.
Perhaps. But note the recent trend of stores who offer a discount if you use THEIR credit card (instead of someone else's). Target and Lowe's both offer 5% discount to use their credit cards.
So what makes the backers of CurrentC think that Apple and Google will allow a CurrentC app in either of their respective app stores after their methods were blocked?
---> you pay with cash you ALWAYS argue about the price, merchant have to give the CC 1~3% in transaction fees -- cash is the king (actually gold is) or bitcoin
And how is that working out for you when you're arguing with some minimum-wager running the cash-register with no authority to change prices whatsoever?
You cherry-picked your quote.
When TFS explicitly says "that's not allowed, presumably because Apple doesn't want iOS to serve as a drone controller", I don't think you can really accuse the GP of cherry-picking to make his point.
Oh, yes I can, your forgot to bold the all-important word apparently - which indicates the statement is speculation by the writer of TFS. Apple says you can't have an app that uses GPS to automatically control a real-world aircraft or automobile. I think that GPS and automatically control are the operative words - for liability reasons. The parrot is manually controlled, hence is not a counter-example as professed by the OP.
So Apple really just doesn't want you to use an iPhone as the onboard GPS controlled brain of an autonomous drone, which is a shame, because it would be perfect for that.
Except for the part about liability where someone gets hit by said drone and sues the deep pocket - Apple.
Repeated Submission of Similar Apps
Submitting several apps that are essentially the same ties up the App Review process and risks the rejection of your apps. Improve your review experience â" and the experience of your future users â" by thoughtfully combining your apps into one.
This would explain why there's 500 flashlight/text-scrolling/mirror apps.
Reading comprehension fail. The rejection reason is a single developer submitting multiple apps that are essentially the same.
You cherry-picked your quote. The summary says: Want to have an App that uses GPS to automatically control a real-world aircraft or automobile? The Parrot does not do that. It is a manual control drone.
At a drive through, being able to fire up an app, hit "send" and have the actual order I want would be nice. I tend not to hit fast foot places, but it would be nice to get something that is somewhat close to what I ordered at the pickup window
You assume that the problem is in the ordering. A lot of fast food places now have a display that shows your order so you can verify it was taken correctly. These robots are not making the sandwiches or stuffing the bags so your food matching what you order will likely not change.

well our bus stop was 7km away. And there was a lot of broken glass, and of course bare feet and snow and stuff. .
You forgot, "uphill both ways."
The Muslim religion is offended by depictions of Muhammad.
Actually, no. That is something made up by Muslim radicals. Nothing in the Koran about it.

You can also choose your own children? You have that much control of your life?
Yup. It's called adoption.
I never said gizmo was shut down. The topic of this thread is "enhanced interogation" or torture. That's what Obama shut down. In 2009.
You're a colossal asshole. Fucking blaming the guy who shut down that shit? Go waterboard yourself off the planet.

He's only 50% black ;)
So, only 50% of African Americans can complain about racism then?
Making the argument that the Earth as been geo-engineered for humans is preposterous. 2/3's of it is covered with water we can't drink! Large swaths are covered with desserts and mountain ranges. There are earthquakes and volcanoes, etc.
Basically, God was an amateur at geo-engineering.

+50, Insightful
Not when nobody with more than 2 brain cells will use it.
From the summary:
Therefore, we can reasonably assume that CurrentC will take off like wildfire.
Except that Walmart shoppers aren't exactly the type to have NFC-enabled smartphones.

I would agree, however the OP did omit Apple's actual reason which is the GPS-controlled nature of the app.
You cherry-picked your quote. When TFS explicitly says "that's not allowed, presumably because Apple doesn't want iOS to serve as a drone controller", I don't think you can really accuse the GP of cherry-picking to make his point.

None of this would be an issue if Apple would allow for alternative stores. Even these could be filtered to some point.
Apple can run their store however they want, but having to jailbreak my phone to install a competitor to iTunes seems like anti competitive behavior.
It's not an issue. Go buy an Android phone or Windows phone.

Good staff knows how to upsell. That extra appetizer, dessert, beer, etc. Will it be as effective as static ads on UIs?
That depends on the default. I can't wait for the flying popups you have to dismiss with a tiny X closing box if you don't want the extra shit.
